3 OCTOBER 1868, Page 3

Consols, both for money and the account, closed yesterday at

94a to 94i. Reduced and New Three per Cents. have

marked 931 4. India Five per Cents., ma ditto, Bonds, 20s. to 25s. prem., and Exchequer Bills, 15s. to 20s. prem. Considerable activity has prevailed in the demand for Foreign Bonds, and Spanish stocks particularly have com- manded attention. During the earlier part of the week the New Three per Cents. were done as low as 314, but on the announce- ment that the insurrection had proved a success and that the Queen had fled to France, a reaction took place, and prices rapidly improved. Yesterday, they marked 33i and 334. Turkish Five and Six per Cents., 1865, have been freely dealt iu, and the value of most other Foreign Securities has been well supported. The demand for money has been stimulated by the payments, and made on the 4th of the month ; nevertheless, the best commercial paper is readily discounted at 11 a per cent. In the Railway Share Market the business doing has been limited. The stock of bullion in the Bank of England is 21,001,136/. ; in the Bank of France, 50,936,0001.
