from yesterday's final close. The Funds remain dull
at the decline of 5 per cent., and there is no re-
.e"erY in Foreign Stocks or Railways. The only

duction. The business doing is very limited, and
as a great deal of speculation is rife, prices of par-
ticular descriptions have an uncertain appearance.
