      MONEY MABKET AND CITr INTELLIGENCE . Friday Evening , March 24 , 1 S 54 , Cowsota have had ov « r a two per cent , fall since last week , and notwithstanding an occasional rally , the tendency has been very decidedly downwards . Honey is becoming tight , and the new loans that are afoot on tha Continent , added to the drain of bullion oat of the country , add to the general depression . Shares have followed Consols , and the " Consols" of the share-market , London and North-Western , are 2 per cent , below par . Mining shares are very flat ; indeed , next to nothing doing in them . Peninsulars keep up well , and Nouvean Monde have had a great rally thia last week . Russian stock is still low ; the flv « s have been at 81 , 82 , but are a little firmer again to-day . A protracted war will make this valuable investment about the same price as Spanisk , say 30 for the five per cents . ; indeed , it must be a long time recovering its prestige , should any unforeseen event bring about a peaee . We should not be surprised to see Consols at 85 this day week , because it is fair to suppose that the state of war must be in sonoft way authoritatively recognised before that date . All produce connected . with the Russian trade , such as hemp , tallow ,. &c , and palm oil , is very high-Comiaercial difficulties may be anticipated this coming spring . The little slake that there has been in the Australian , trade is a sample of what we are likely to see in an extended form . Consols leave off at four o ' clock at 88 i , f .

      CORN MARKET . Mark Lane , Friday Evening , March 24 . Locail Tkade . —Tho supplies of Wheat , Barley , nnl Oats durin-g the week have been very large . Wheat , however has not declined in -value since Monday , though the demand has continued slow . It is probable , till this supply is disposed , of , prices -will romain very Irregular , but an expectation is generally entertained that wu shall after that experience a gradual i inprovemcnt . Barley and Oats are each 2 s . cheaper . Fkiik on Boaed . —Tho Baltic and near Continental markets have given way somewhat . We have not yet had time to hoar the effect of the fall of last Monday . The lance arrivals Whioh have taken place the last few days , and which continue at present , will , probably , not havo thoir full oirccton our market till next week or the week aft or We W ^ sl i ° * \ , r ?

      considerable decline just now would not hare induced much business . Many of the holders are indisposed to make great concession , but there are some willing sellers , and we could secure a few cargoes on moderate terms . If tbe war is to continue , it is thought by houses engaged in the Black Sea trade , ttiat their money may as well remain invested in the wheat already bought , and on passage or arrival in this country , as lay idle , for till the-present state of things ceases , the trade with that quarter must continue in . abeyance . The sales made this week are two Odessa Ghirka , 62 s . ; one Saidi , 46 s . 6 d . ; one Taganrog Ghirka , 64 s . 8 d . There is nothing doing in maize . A cargo of barley sold at 28 s .
