With reference to the market for American rail-
way securities, Mr. E. F. Satterthwaite reports as
follows :
The market in Loudon for American securities is quite
firm. There continues in be a steady demand for the Fede-
ral and various States' stocks. New York Central end Illi-
nois Central Bonds are mealy purohesed for Inveatoost. In
Illinois them is leas doing, the late large and rapid advance
being scactly maintained.
Some items of railway news from New York are
thus noticed by the same authority :
The Pittsburg, Port Wayne, and Chicago is again reduced
to the necessity of (audio; the coupon' now due and coming
due up to October, 1860. This result um not expected when
the bondholders commuted in 1868 to a funding at their
coupons. We hero no farther fetelligeoce about the leas-
ing of the Erie Railroad, except that the offer is to commence
at 1,600,000 dollars, to increase 100,000 duffers per annum
up to 1866, sad then to remain at 2,000,000 dtilore up to
1870. There appears some objection to leasing an important
line like the New York and Eris Railroad to a few indivi-
duals. Had the New York Central Railroed Company, or
this compaay and the Pennsylvania Central jointly proposed
to lease and work the concern, it would, we think, hove been
accepted by the staciholders, and all classes of bondholders
with much greater satifaction,
The Admiralty will receive tenders to-morrow for
the conveyance of 180 tons of naval stores from the
Thames to Jamaica; also stores to Malta and Trill-
comae,.

WIDSUDAT EVENIXO.

The funds to-day were dull, with little business.
The variations were trifling, and the closing quota-
tion of Coevals -eel about 1-18 per cent below that
of yesterday. The manifesto expected from the
Emperor of the French, in order to re-assure Eu-
rope, comes in the shape of an explanatory and
apologetic harangue to the great bodies of the State.
It has as jet bad no stimulating effect, either here
or at Pans. The French funds, indeed, have again
declined. Many people, however, entertain a be-
lief that, Napoleon's warlike game in Italy having
been fairly played out, the means of promoting the
" tranquillity of Europe" will once more form osten-
sibly his Majesty's grand object. A hope is even
clung to that, should something more tangible than
tranquillising assurances prove requisite to restore
confidence, a partial disarmament may be conceded.
In some of the other markets the tendency this
afternoon was rather more cheerful. British railway
stocks were decidedly stronger, the appearance of a
few buyers causing an immediate reaction from the
late decline.
At Vienna, and in some of the other Continental
markets, an unfavourable re-action of about per
cent. took place yesterday in the Austrian fends.
