SATUIOAT E VINING.
The funds showed a little tendency towards re-
action to.dsy, the features presented by the Bank
return being considered not altogether satisfactory.
The decline, however, did not exceeds per cent., and
the market, on the whole, retains much steadiness of
character, despite the continued stringency of the
money market, which will probably not be alleviated
until the return of the large mw of surplus deposits oa
the loan next week. Great interest, of coaree,attaches
to the adjudication of the loan, which is to take
place on Monday morning, at 10 o'clock.
