within the recollection of the present
generation has the Stock Exchange been the scene
°f B 0 much commotion as the news from America
Umorning has created. In the department for
„n. ited States Securities the excitement witnessed
this morning can only be characterised as of the
mildest character. The quotations have fallen and
risen in the most extraordinary and considerable
anner. Erie Railway shares declined at one
tlme about 8i per cent. ; Illinois Central
Railway.. shares, 6 per cent. ; and the
520 Bonds 5
per cent. But these prices, however,
are steady,
compared with what they were in the
early part of the morning. What assisted the ex-
citement was the announcement of the failure of
Messrs, Gowan and Marx, well known jobbers in
Federal Securities. Their stoppage has been occa-
!loned through the embarrassments of their agents
New York, and now that a very heavy fall has
taken place in prices here, the event is regarded with
increased alarm. The consternation which the news
created was not confined to the Stock Exchange,
and in all departments of business, and, in fact, in
.verY place general alarm was depicted upon the
'aces of people, lest the deeds which have been per-
petrated may lead to still more detestable crimes,
and perhaps end in a crisis similar to the one which
prevailed in Paris during the first revolution. As
the day advanced more calmness has been apparent,
andpriceshave been steadier. Consols have declined
er,„.eent., viz., to 90i for money and account.
