The result of the Presidential elections, according to
the returns at that date, was 13 votes for General Arista,
2 for Rosa, 3 for Almonte, 1 for Gomez Pedraza, 1 for
Mujiea, a• d in two states, having one electoral vote
each, no election, giving a majority of 4 out of 22 votes
to Arista. No further arrangement has been made in
regard to the internal debt. A bill for that purpose has
bt en under discussion in the Senate, and the Chamber of
Deputies appointed as a committee of conference with
the creditors in order to agree upon the terms. Nothing
has yet been accomplished by this measure, and it is
feared that it wi'l prove wholly ineffectual. A Bill has
pasied both Houses of the Legislature permitting the
introduction of foreign corn (maize) on the payment of

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.
NEW YORK, DEC. 9, P.M.
The stock market opened quite buoyant this morning,
and continue dso to the close. The transactions in the
,ancies were not so large as usual, but a larger portion
aas for cash. At the first board United States' Sixes,
1867, advanced 4 per cent.; Farmers' Loan, 4; Reading
Railroad, ; Erie Railroad, i; Norwich and Worcester,
1; Erie Income Bonds, i; Hudson River Railroad
Bonds, 11,-. At the second board, Erie Income Bonds
improved I per cent.; Erie Railroad, 4; Norwich and
Worcester, 1/; and Farmers' Lnan, 14. There was
more activity among operators in the afternoon than in
the! morning, and the market closed firm with an upward
tendency in prices. Governments stocks were in better
demand to-ley at better prices. The speculative feeling
among outsiders appears to increase. The prospect at
presaLt is in favour of an active market throughout
the st ascai. The recent arrivals of gold dust from
California are much larger than anticipated, and have
given a fresh impetus to• speculation. The views of
holders of stocks generally are much above currenf
rates, and only those who are compelled to realize do
so. We have seen nearly every fancy stock on the list
10, 20, and 80 per cent. above present prices, and it is by
no means impossible but that the inflation of former
times may again be experienced. It is true that the
margin for a rise in some stocks is very limited, while
others are selling for much more money than they are
actually worth, but it matters little about prices when
the fever of speculation rung high, and speculators are
mad from excitement. _

Th.l receipts at the office of the assistant treasurer of
