ket to-day, with improvement in some Of the
Fancies. One OF the periodical onslaughts upon
Erie having been made by morning paper tho
usual result followed, and that stock advanced,
closing at So, an improvement Of y cent. II is
subject OF curious speculation in the street how long

an advance Of J y cent. The sales were nearly
5000 shares and this stock, in amount Of transac-
tions, now takes the lead Of Erie. The question Of

from Philadelphia being quite contradictory. Can
ton is steady. Hudson River shows further decline
Of p cent. Delaware and Hudson sold at par, but
was afterward offered at 90 without sales. Harlem
is without change. The extension to Chatham will
be opened in about two weeks, giving the Road

River Road in relation to fares, &c. Norwich was
