SATURDAY Dec 23--P. M.
At the Board this morning there was active
demand for Government Stock, and sales Of the
'S7 Loan were made at l15, which is an advance
of q cent 1851 was offered for the Loan OF '68,
no sellers The other Loans were also IN demand
at better prices The amount OF these securities
on the market is considerably lessening, and any
considerable purchase invariably advances rates
The market for the speculative Stocks this morn
irg was generally shade lower than the closing
prices of Yesterday the reaction then noticed
being continued but at the Second Board the
price of every description sold improved from
70 y cent Reading closed firm at 74074i Nor
witch and Worcester, 672968; Farmers trust
Co. co and Erie at IS. The latter declined In
the morning to So, thus recovering fuIt Il y cent
1t seems to be plain that there can be no Pefma-
nent decline so long as the present prosperous
promising state of things and the reat abundance
of money continues Each decline or reaction in
prices is followed by still greater advance r $
was the fact in former times, and we have now
but repetition of the same thing resulting rom
like causes. Another element now enters into
the causes for higher prices, which is, that most
of the speculative Railroad Stocks which formerly
paid nothing to Stockholders and only had value
growing out of the hopes or fancies OF their hold
ers, are now, under better management, coupled
with increased business and freedom from imam
cial embarrassment, paying dividends. Most of
the Stocks so long considered Of speculative or
fancy character, now pay more or lees income
some of them full interest their par value.
Among the striking instances of these changes
for the better are the Albany and Schenectady,
! IIy III, he pooJ
ington, &c
Money continues in great abundance Loans
were made to day of considerable sums on first
class stocks at " cent.

having been made by Gilmore & Carpenter, con.
tractors for an injunction on the Norfolk County
Railroad, to prevent their issuing any more bonds
or paying any moneys on account OF Judgment
obtained by them against this Company for $780,.
600, has not yet been decided by the Court and

terest on their bonds, amounting to over $40 900,
