FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. The Bank of England Advances Its Bate of Interest to 7 Per Cent. THE PROBABLE REASONS THEREFOR A Decline in Continental Se- curities.

THE FOREIGN MARKET. The Snancial community was somewhat startled this morning by London cable advices announcing ‘that the directors of the Bank of England had ad- vanced the rate of discount from 6 to 7 per cent. @nglish papers received to-day enable us to infer somewhat of the causes that have led up to this movement. First, the ‘Old Lady of Threadneedle gtreet’? has not been able to reckon upon her usual influx of bullion and coin from abroad. There has Deen a constant drain made upon the coffers of the bank by Germany; secondly, the next pay- ment of the French indemnity—to wit, the pay- ment of £10,000,000 on the 10th of June, and this being the fires instalment of She last milliard payable, is to be followed by pay- ments of £10,000,000 per month—a fact which points to dearer money on the Continent and an additional drain on the British market, Thirdly, there has been a general decline in the most im- portant ef the foreign securities in which England Is largely interested. According to English market reports THE DEPRESSION thas been very, very great—say an average of four or five per cent, and the confession is made that it is calculated to exert a disturbing effect. For instance, the nominal capital represented by ten Continental securities exceeds $2,000,000,000, the Qverage decline on which may be estimated at 4 gnd 5 per cent, with a resultant difference in market value of about £100,000,000. This has been brought around by dierent causes, all of which have been for the moment intensified by the Vienna panic. The political difficulties in France have likewise doubtless had their influence, and, Prance being at the present time the greatest borrower from England, nothing can affect French securities without disturbing all. Possibly, the RECENT DESPATCHES FROM BERLIN, toncerning the reported dissatisfaction of thé Ger- man government with the MacMahon dispensation, has had its influence upon British capital, tor a political difficulty, whether real or surmised, is a Serious financial matter. Again, there has been an immense fallin Spanish stock—a fall of seven per cent since March, accompanied by a proposed Pepudiation in modified shape—that is to say, in the form of a proposal to pay one-third of the interest of the government debt in depreciated paper. The anarchy of the country leaves no hope for @ cash payment. Hence an influence on English invest- ments and a reflex action through all the line of Stocks. Italy is not much better of. That country fs also fall of deprectated currency, and the foreign creditor feeis its force. Consequently doubt sur- rounds the majority of Continental investments, The English market has been overladen. FOREIGNERS HAVE BECOME OFFENDERS. And this is one reason why, as may have becn all along observed, our American securities, in the shape of government and railroad bonds, have ex- hibited firmness and found an active market. The advance in the rate of interest in the Bank of England, therefore, would seem to be only pre- eautionary—a sort of “trimming of sails,” in order to prevent a further forced depletion of its vaults. It is also to be borne in mind that about the middle of September the $15,000,000 due on account of THE ALABAMA CLAIMS Rave to be paid to the United States. England is ® present sufferer from a tendency to loan to other countries which have been constant bor- rowers, and which pay the interest of old debts out of new loans; and if, in looking over the field, the directors of the bank have seen fit to “put on the brakes,” and check the drain on their funds, our own, first of all other countries, will derive the benefit, even though ‘we may incidentally have been the cause of the trouble by withholding, as undoubtedly has been the case, the usnal exportation of bullion upon ‘which the mother country hasin the past at this geason of the year so largely depended. In this connectien it may be stated that the Bi ot Eng- land to-day received an addition to its balance in Bullion the sum of £70,000, which, added to the amonnt of £73,000 reported yesterday. makes a te- tal of £143,000 in two days. Meanwhile money in @pen market 1s stated to be 1 per cent below the bank rate on government securities. The rate of discount on three months’ bills in open market at ‘the close of business was % per cent lower than the bank rate. The new French loan advanced 3 per cent, and American securities were strong. Erie was quoted at 48% a %; Illinois Central at 88 989. Consols for money were 92%, ex interest; 20 bonds (old), of 1865, 91%; 678, 94%; 10-408, 88%; new fives, 89%. ‘The following are the rates of discount in the @ifferent European cities:— THE MONEY MARKBT. ‘Moncy was again easy to-day, and the rates of interest on call lower.

The receipts from customs to-day were $400,000. The Assistant ‘Treasurer paki out $453,000 in redemption of 5-20 bonds.

The stock market, espectally in the early hours of the board, showed considerabie animation; open- ing weak, but quickly recovering and maintaining @ reasonably good tone, for this season of the year, until towards the close, when prices again fell off. The effect of foreign advices was somewhat felt through the influence produced on gold, and, pos- sibly, local rumors with reference to one stock and another may have brought about some of tne changes of the day. The disposition of the market, however, is to drift with the tide for the present, and await the breaking out from the fog of some headland by which the pilots may steer. Several of the heavy operators being absent and sundry figures on which future speculations are based being yet in the chaotic recesses of directors’ pockets, there was no general activity manifested by either bulls or bears. Pacific Mail was exceptional, by far the larger transactions of the day being in this stoek. It opened at 3934, tmproved by frac- tions before the call, when it reached 40, ran the gamut for a while around this figure, touching 40% in its course, receding and returning, but, after twelve o’clock, took a firm hold at 41%, 41%, 41%, 41%, which was retained until near the close of the business day, when it dropped off to 40%. Western Union was steady, at 845; a 86, C.,C.and I. 0. showed only % per cent difference from the prices of yesterday. Union Pacific opened at 28%, at which it was firm during the day, touching, tem- porarily, 27%. Erie went to 62}¢ a 62 in sym- pathy with London quotations. Delaware, Lacka- wanna and Western was steady, at 104% a 106, New York Central was a shade off from the best price of yesterday, selling at the extremes of 101% a 101%; Lake Shore the same, the extremes being 914, 991%. Wabash was firm at 68% a 69, Rock Island showed @ slight drop, and was sold at 10934 @ 109%. Investment shares were generally steady.

Oats were also irregular and lower. Whiskey was a trifie lower, with heavy receipta, There was very little mevement in pro- visions, scarcely anything having been done id pork, which was nominally unchanged, while lard was dull and easier.
