EVENING TELEGRAPH OFFICE,

Saturday, Feb. A. 1871,
The supply of funds is steadily increasing,
both at the banks and in the outside market,
and more is offering than can be readily disposed
of at the regular market rates. AS a result, the
tone of lenders exhibits less firmness, and any
reasonable amount is accessible to all whose
credit is undoubted. No apprehension exists as
to the future condition of the market, and the
tendency ut the banks is to expand. Rates
both on call and discount loans are much lower
than usual at the beginning of this month.
Gold is rather quiet but steady, with all the
sales ranging from 111I@l1l5s, closing at the
latter.
Government bonds are in good demand, and
prices show a further advance of HdA.
Reading Railroad changed hands at 40; Penn
sylvania at 61s1d61M, n decline; North Penn
sylvania at 441a; Mnehill at 5l9I; and Lehigh
Valley at 6OA.

kill sold at S$s; preferred do. at 173s, b. o.; and
Lehigh at "a =, s. o., G34%.
