downward tendency.
At the commencement of business to-day the
market was disposed to YIELD and lower prices
were current at the first board for almost all the
speculative shares After the board however a
rally took place, and the mornings decline was
fully recovered. The weather, the state of sus-

receipt of news from the naval expedition, and the
breakdown in Illinois Central, all tended to weaken
the market But there was, it seems, too much
h.pefnlness among operators, and too much out
side buying, for the decline to last many hours.
The heaviest stock on the list to-day Illinois
