31.02 VET MARKET AND CITY NEWS.

CITY, Two o'CLocK.

The Board of Trade returns issued yesterday
show an improving tendency in business, and the
'weekly accounts of railway traffic also indicate
greater activity in commercial affairs. In nearly
all the principal lines there continues to be a pro-
gressive augmentation, which is not only en-
couraging to the shareholders, but is encouraging
also in a mercantile point of view, because there is
every reason to presume that the revival will be
continuous. In contrasting the weekly receipts at
the present time with those of :the corresponding
Period of last year, it must be recollected, however,
that the comparison is made with the di-
minished traffic resulting from the crisis,
which in November last was at its height.

The demand for money is still very limited, and
the rates indicate a tendency towards increased
ease. This change, however, is not regarded as one
likely to prevail for any length of time, as in a few
days the usual monthly payments on commercial
account, together with the settlements of the Stock
Exchange, may stimulate an inquiry. The least
extra demand induces banking and bill brokers to
exact fractionally higher terms for the use of their
capital, but such movements are of course to be
anticipated when the anomalous position of the
market is considered.

The vessels next expected from Australia are th
Dover Castle with £388,900, and the Marco Polo
With £187,500. Their arrival has been delayed by
Contrary winds, but there are now indications ofli
change, and several of the overdue vessels may
Shortly make their appearance.
The continued quietude of speculation, and the
Yew bona fide operations effected leave the English
s
:°ek Market in the same dull and monotonous
state` 'which has characterised it for some time
Past, Variations of 1-16 or 1- per cent constitute
th
'e daily movement in values, and the transactions
reported during the week represent a smaller
amount than is frequently concluded in the space
of a few hours during the periods of animation.

the quotations remain firm, owing to the
cheapness and abundance of money. The market
is easily influenced to a fractional extent by the
sale
or purchase of a silical quantity of stock.
