Farmers was steady under large sales. Harlem
had an upward tendency at the Second Board.
The receipts of November are in the neighborhood
of $4,000, fully equal to the amount needed to

The Road is in fine condition, and as soon as the
peoples Line, as'the hog train is called begins
to run, the receipts will be very large. The
country is full of produce and the only limit to
the business of the Road is the want of eqapaGe
to perform it. Canton is held very firmly, but is
inactive A further advance .of : y cent took
place in Portsmouth Dry Dock and the stock was
in demand. In our notice yesterday OF this stock
East Boston was printed Great Western.
We alluded to East Boston stock as an instance
of the probity of land companies as an invest
ment. Ten years after the East Boston scheme
was Matched, it was the football of State st. and
was secuted at by capitalists as worthless. 1t
has since paid back purchasers their money two
or three times over in dividends and is now higher
than before and considered very sound invest
ment. Edgeworth is another of these Eastern
land companies, which has been brought into ex-
istence by the extension of cheap railroad tacii-
ties around Boston, and by the absolute necessity
of finding ebow-room for the surplus population
of over.crowded Boston. The lands OF the Com
pany are situated on the Maine Railroad in Nal
den, 81 miles from Boston. There is depot
the Company lands and trains pass thirty or for
ty times day. The property OF the Company
consists Of Eleven Millions of feet of land. The
Company are free from debt, have $4,000 cash,
$4,000 in Bond and Mortgages, and houses worth
81 500. 1t has paid two dividends oil 81 each,
and propose to pay another soon OF 81 p share.
The number of shares is %, 600. Several manu-
featuring establishments are situated on the lands
of the Company, and sites for others are in nego,
tiation. Morris was quiet at 214. Incomes were
steady at 935. There has been considerable
movement by capitalists within few days in In
diana Canal Preferred Five Per Cents, which
were selling at about 80, with Is lP cent interest
accumulated There are so many descriptions Of
Indiana stocks that but few persons understand
their various values but lately large purchases
have been made out of the Board of the above
stock by parties who have examined into their
relative value, and who are able to wait until
capitalists generally appreciate them Tor Gov
ernments there was fair demand, and the mar
ket was without change of Importance
In Money there is 10 change. Tie supply is
abundant in the street at 5d7 y cent on first
class short paper, and sac p cent on call loans.
The Banks are discounting their receipts
Exchanges are in fair demand and the supply
is good. The demand is somewhat increased by
the necessity of sending forward January diyi
dends on the stocks held in Europe.
