The tone of the Stock market to-day was much the
same as yesterday, and prices continue to droop
under the realizing sales Of large operators and the
more bearish feeling developed at the Board. The
decline was slightly checked the first call this morn

the close Of the session the market became very heavy
again and between the Boards there more seri-
QUE break in prices, which carried down New-fork
Central in few transactions, to al; and other
stocks in the same ra,io with but two three excep

active, ard fo' majority Of the stocks dealt in

upon the market. Reading went down to A. but was
fraction better after the Board. The bond market
was not active and prices fraction lower for
State stock. generally. In Railway bonds there was
no important change and but little doing. The closing
