LONDON, Thursday Night. The Bank of England directors have raised tha rate from 2 per cent., at wh:.cb it was fixed on April 18:L last, to 3 per cent, The movement was J not unexpected, though had it been delayed for another week or two no sw.-prise would have been felt, the depression in the French Exchange having become less acute. However, aa the future of the market is invol-red. in so much uncertainty, the ear.y adoption of pr? cautionary measures is to he commended. Not improbably, the late abun- dance of money will i^iva place to comparative soarcty. A moderate busines w»-i done in money to-day. Short loans werfi 2 to 2 per cent. Three months' bank bills are discounted at 21. Discount houses now allow l pf;r cent. for money at call and Ii if with notice, and banks 1 per cent, if with notice.
