MONEY MARKET AND CITY INTELLIGENCE . Friday Evening , January IS , 1854 . Consols have been as low as 92 } 921 during the week , but the absence of any definite news—any , the chance of another sham ne $ otiati 6 n in order to give the Czar time to make his preparations against the spring of the year—and the opinion which would seem to prevail that our Ministry , absolutely ruled by Coburg influences , is ready to make any terms , however dishonourable , in order to secure a false peace—in short , to put off the fatal hour , when the present European dynastic system must inevitably be crushed-Consols have , therefore , been very firm both yesterday and to-day . The wary and knowing Hebrews , generally in advance of their Gentile associates in their foresight as to coming " events . " have been buying very largely . Shares have followed- my leader " Consols , and have also sympathised with their brethren over the water . There has been a good deal of speculative business in French shares .
Gold Mining Shares , &c , are nearly forgotten . Russian Four per Cents , have received a little reverse this week , and at one time fell to 10 S , 109 . The markets and the state of business generally— apart from the fear and possibility of war—is healthy , and exports continue to Australia and India to a great extent . Before the 20 th we may have definite news of the Emperor of Russia's ultimatum , but as I read things at present the first manifesto will be anything but pacific , and force funds down to 90 . Then will come his most imperial recognition and consideration of the humbling terms proposed , not by the people of England , —no , but the miserable tools of the " German Cancer , " our Coburg Ministry , and forced on the Turk—then will come diplomacy and weeks'delay—funds will rise , and all seeming bright , as soon as the Czar is ready : then beware the Bear , both in Calmuusk land and Capel-court .

The French markets are beginning to improve again . Meantime some sales have been made at Marseilles for English account , and we have offered to us to-day a cargo of Wheat reshipped there ; but we believe these transactions do not amount to anything important . From the Baltic , we hear that tho stocks of Wheat at the principal ports on the 1 st of January , fell much short of last year .
