A MERICAN MARKETS.

The stock market for sound dividend-paying stocks
improved after the arrival of the last steamer from
Liverpool, and sales have been made at prices beyond
those obtained for some years. The supply of that
description of stock is not large, and any important
demands produce an advance of one or two pet
cent. The New York Five per Cent. State Loan
of 1666, taken a few days since at 1051 per cent..
has been since sold at 1064 per cent., and fol
the Sixes of 1867 120 was bid. The money market is
easy on call, and rates for paper are ameliorating ; some
loans on call were made at 5 per cent., and on Govern-
ment bills money can bo occasionally borrowed at 4 pe'
cent. The supply seeking temporary investment is quit.
large. The supply of first-class names is not very large.

' Treasury of the country about f millions. The banks are
amply supplied also. The provision market is firm, buL
