MONDAY Evainaa.
The movements of the funds continue to indicate
en undiminished belief on the part of the public that
the present state of the money market is exceptional
and temporary. Despite the rise in the rate of dis-
count, the stoppage of the Western Bank of Scot-
land, and the other disquieting features of the day,
the extreme depression in the funds to-day was
limited to per cent., and the clueing quotations
were only 1 per cent. below those of Saturday. The
prevailing distrust tends rather to stimulate than
check investments in the funds, and the 'apply of
stock thrown upon the market from banking and
other sources is thus readily absorbed. The belief
that a continuance of the present pressure for money
at the Bank will result in a relaxation of the
Act of 1844, continues to deter speculative sales
and to avert foolish panic. The other departments
of the Stock Exchange were weaker.

-In the Stock Exchange money was easy at 5 to
6 per cent. for loans on government securities from
day to day, but for loans up to the December settle-
ment the rate was 8 to 9k per cent., owing to
the competition of bankers and others for loans on
stock.

Consols,which were quoted at the close of the
Stock Exchange on Saturday at 881 to 1 for money
and to-morrow's settlement, opened this morning at
881 to 1, owing to the failure of Messrs. Dennistoon
and Co., fell to 88Z, on the announce-
ment from the Bank, and closed at 881, " buyers,"
for money. For the Bth December the last price was
891. The " continuation" this afternoon ruled at
9-16 to a per cent. Sales are recorded an
follows :—Three per Cent. Consols, for money,
