The annexed extracts, from the financial circular
of Messrs. Seyton and Wainwright, of New Xork,
show the extent to which business is checked by the
uncertainty that prevails respecting the results of
the important military and naval operations now in
progress :
Governnient Btocka.—The market has been steady, at
about the prices ruling at date of our but. All the regular
issues are firmly held, and the recorded traneactioor are
very limited. Business will probably be restricted until
the receipt of news from the naval expedition to the
Bouthern Oast, and from Missouri, where the relative posi-
tion of the limy and the rebels would seem to intimate the
strong probability of a decisive action being fought.
Railroad stocks are steady. A considerable amount of
transactions is recorded in the leading stocks, mostly for
cash, and on options of three d►ys either to buyer or seller,
speculation being restrained by the feeling of suspense
which prevails is reference to the destination of the expe-
ditionary fleet, and the action of the armies in Western
Virginia and Missouri. We quote New York Central, 79 to
791; Erie, :rut to Al ; Illinois Central, 621 to ti t ; Galena,
to76} ; Bock Island, 53 to 54 ; and Toledo, 36;; to:17.
With reference to the condition of employment
in Lancashire the circular of Messrs. Joseph
Travers and Sous has the following :

The accounts from Lan...-whire, notwithstanding the re-
cent sharp experience of winter, are still more satisfactory
than could have been hoped, and indicate a degree a calm
courage on the part of employers, and of steady patience
on the part of the operatives creditable to all concerned, and
to the character of the country: at large. The disposition to
meet the risks and privations inevitable in a crisis so ex-
ceptional without exaggeration, and to make the beet instead
of the worst of their position, is very remarkable ; and this
feeling of itself will go far to mitigate all evils, while, at the
wme time, it will beget a desire among the general public
throughout the United Kingdom to support the government
in bringing forward any measures of relief, if the trials of
the time should yet &ARUM,' proportions beyond the power
of individual or local remedies.
