      v MONEY MARKET AND CITY INTELLIGENCE . Fhibay . In the beginning of the week the market"for ~ Eng lish Funds was very flat , and an uneasy feeling prevailed among dealers on account of the late decision of the directors of the Bank of England , which ia felt to be unfavourable to speculation . » The dosing price of Consols on Monday was 96 | to 96 £ , and no alteration took place on the following day . On Wednesday , although the amount of business done was small , prices rose ^ , and the market ruled firm . The improvement was maintained yesterday , owing to the abundance of money , under the influence of which Consols advanced to 96 J , and , towards the close of business , some speculative purchases caused a further rise of j . This morning the market was buoyant , and opening prices 96 J to 96 J . The range of prices during the week has been as follows : —Consols , 96 ? to 96 g ; Bank Stock , 213 to 214 ; Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents ., 98 § to 98 j ; Exchequer Bills , 56 s . to 62 s . premium . In the market for Foreign Securities there haB not been much animation during the week . Yesterday Foreign Stocks were steady , with a tendency to improvenent . Granada Deferred were done at 3 j ; Mexican , for iccount , 35 a , i , and / j ; Peruvian Deferred , 34 J ; Spanish 1 ' per Cents ., for account , 17 $ ; the Three per Cents ., >« A and 4 ex . div . ; Venezuela , 31 $ and 4 ; the Deferred , [ H and A ; Dutch Two-and-a-, llalf per Cents , 58 and ' 7 b ex div . ; and the Four per Cent . Certificates , 91 MAitp .-iiA . piB , Friday , Jan . 8 . The commencement of the new year has not yet given ny stimulus to the trade , and the same dulness as prciulfid last week continues . At the country markets hold urmg the weok the tendency of prioeB has been rather owiiwards . The arrivals of foreign Wheat and Flour ¦ ontuiue on a large scale ; the supplies of English and 'reign Barley are liberal , and we receive a sufficient . " amity of Outs from Ireland , the Continent , and our ¦ wn coast to keep prices stationary . Of all articles of nun it in di / Kcult to effect large sales without submitting J reduction , this , however , holders are unwilling to <> , and we cannot therefore alter our quotations .
