The stock markets remain depressed, attention being

the continent. The funds, however, have. no ;exper
rienced any further decline. The hare markets 'con
tinue to droop. The demand for money is slack, owing
to the new check to business. About £44,000 in gold was
taken from Bank"tadar,'-foe exportiitiini, : a 'portion'
being for India. A sum of £70,000, from the Weat,
