MONEY MARKET AND STOCK EXCHANGE .
. :¦ .'* Friday. Evsanng. The Decrepit E...
. : ¦ . ' * Friday . EvsanNG . The decrepit emp ire that novy shows a . bold front to her insubordinate provinces , her bellicose neighbour , and the French hosts in the distance , pays dearly for even the luxury of the military promenades with which she has already scared timorous capital , and will soon affect patient industry throughout TSurope . To augment and set in motion her vast warlike apparatus , she has appealed to . her old friends , the . Rothschilds . A , commission or
bonus of 3 / . has been offered to these financiers on every 80 / . ( nominally 100 / . ) they can scrape together for her of the 6 , 000 , 000 / . she wants . Our money dealers and our . public , however , are not eager for the honour of inscription in her ledger It is said that the contractors have shown her weakness and their own want of confidence by offers to share their bonus with brokers who may have cash of . their own or of their clients to invest , but at the close of business to-day the cry was everywhere , " No takers . "
trade have not yet turned their attention to this one . Such a large field for business has thus been left open , that when we compare the selling prices of good nitrogenous or phosphatic manures with the cost of their raw materials , we are induced to ¦ think the Guaranteed Company will be well able to pay the 6 per cent , they propose to offer on 20 , 000 / . worth of new stock , and well able to employ that sum .
The money market has been feverish arid susceptible all the week .- Yesterday , a rumour that 2 ? ranee would take no initiative against Austria , though she wo defend Piedmont in case of attack , induced for a while a healthier feeling . This was succeeded by gloom on the anncmn . celnerit of a fall of nearly ^ p er cent , on the French Bourse , and a report that Sardinian troops had moved upon Jjombardy . Consols , which opened at 95 f to £ , closed finally at 95 J to f . This morning they opened very flatly at yesterday ' s rates ; but , the speeches of Ministers evincing grave apprer
herision of alocal , and then possibly of a European ¦ war , the market receded . TDuring the afternoon appeared aportion of aPrench semi-ofiicial pamphlet , entitled Napoleon III . ei VJlalie . The presumed collaboration of , his Imperial Majesty , or , at all events ^ Ms known privity to its vigorous language in reference to the Austro-ltalian . question , deepened the gloom . By a telegram froni Paris , at a late hour , it transpired that tjie Rentes were there quoted at 60 ; 50 , or about 1 per cent , lower than yesterday ; and thisa of course , made matters worse . Consols closed officially at 94 # , with every symptom of
distrust on the market . Gur i-eaders will , however , please to note that , as usual , in February the public are investing profits of the past year , and there is , therefore , every chance that the Consol market will be well supported for a time , land perhaps till the crisis is past , by the class who are always on the watch tc » buy in at a low figure . The market for foreign securities has followed the lead of that for English . The announcement that the Mexicans are to be brought to book gave temporary firmness to the securities of that republic : but , as it by no means follows that our
Government will enter the grievances of English creditors in their bill of complaint , this improvement is , wo conceive , but transient . The bonds , yesterday 20 ^ to 20 f , are this afternoon 19 i to 20 & . First-class English and foreign railway stocks generally maintain their position . Good colonial shares are firm . The Lombardo-Venetiau settlement yesterday * was easy . The last quotations for these shares are : —New , & £ dis , ; old , * £ prem . The Sardinian Loan closes at 80 88 , and a new loan decided on . Turks at 79 $ , , London and North-Western at 94 ^ f j Great Northern at 78 § to jt . Money may bo called very easy , being readily
obtainable on good paper at less than Bank rate . The coweso of exchange has risen 1 £ per cent , against Austria . Hamburg and Paris rates leave off about the same ; Amsterdam a little Jitelier . Tlie ears of capitalists are ju & t now deafto nearly all appeals for assistance to industry . ; iand many enterprises of great moment must for a time rest in suspense . Bat this need not apply to all . Tho National Guaranteed Manure Company , a oonoorn already oni ovine : a luvero trade , oapablo , if its
excellent pwnofple pr certainty in quality be steadfastly adhwed to , of vast extonsion , is in the . money market . In times of doubt and trouble ) for all other industries , when ,. as Liebig says , tho'farnxer hew , the key to thorioh inan ' s , treasure ohestj & s tp the poom man ' s savings 'bank , artificial 'manuring becomes moro than ever important . Though the demand , for good super-pb . osphato . is unlimited , there are , to ourTcwowloage , but threp or four-firms here capable ^ of supplying n -firat-rato article in largo quantities ,, sirnnlj . pecnuflfi [ capitalists able to oarry on . cvgrcafy
