. _

The market in Condon for American securities ha., since
our teat, been without =win' change, though the check to
the buying we then noticed has not been removed; on the
contrary, time hoe been an lammed dieposition to effect
asks. The quotations for federal and the various Mates are
ruialtered, trit for railroad stocks and bonds they are gene-
rally rather lower. The moat marked decline, however, is in
Illinois sbares and Construction Benda, which have given
way 2 per cent.

With reference to the freight market, the fort-
nightly circular of Messrs. Sharer, Lamb, and Co.
has the following :
. .

No new impetus has been given to shining butinees PIOOC
this day fortnight, and such is the readiness of owners to
take advantage of the slightest faviiurable motion that it
would need • considerab'e demand to raise the rates of
freight. There has been more talk about China than bad-
ness done, and chips are takon much below the figures asked
by many. The continued bad homeward prospects, how-
ever, naturally cause outward freights to the Rest generally
to be firm. In the Brazilian and River Plate tradte a few
&gram are passing, but employment thence is not easily
obtained. West Comet operations are performed at the ataady
rates recently paid, and handy ships out sod home for West
ladle, are looked alter. The Mediterranean continues de-
errand, and as low as 375. fld. Odessa home has been done.
But few orders remain for elocution to the American and
Baltic markets, if we eacept those fir small grain ships hem
the lower porta of Fromm and Sweden, whence tonnage is in
good demand.
