The following appeared in a part of our
impression of yesterday :

THE MONEY MARKET.
The English funds have been steady to-day at
closing prices of last evening, with an occasional
tendency to further improvement. The Indian

After advancing * per cent.,igll
higher than yesterday. In shain'e
principal alteration consisted of a
in the stocks of the leading British lines. It is
understood that, in the event, or the traffic being
maintained at its present level up to the end of
the year, the great companies will be enabled to
declare very satisfactory rates of dividend. The
London and North Western Company will, in all
probability, pay for the current six months at the
rite of at least 5 per cent. per annum, and the
Midland and South Eastern at tho rate of 6 per
cent. per annum. The demand for money is
brisker than usual on a Saturday. There were no
bullion operations at the Bank.—Daily News.
