MON EY MAR EFT,


FRIDAY, Jan. l4-6 PM
We have nothing new to report in the stock mar
ket. Prices remain about the same as previously
quoted, and the demand full active usual. But
tor the business daily transacted in coal Stocks the
market would be dull enough All the railroad
stocks are much neglected. Land stocks have been
in better demand lately, and the indications are
strongly in favor of an upward movement. There is
sound basis for this class of securities This pro-
perry is generally most favoby located for the ac
commodation of the rapidly increasing population
and all of it must ultimately become improved and
productive. In the vicinity of this city and the city
Of Boston, landed property must annually increase in
value large per cent. The various companies
which have been formed in Boston, within the past
ten years, all, believe, in prosperous, pro-
gressive condition. The city proper is so limited
in extent that population is compelled to
resort to the suburbs for residences. This neces-
sty is becoming greater every year; and as the
land companies referred to have secured nearly
MI the available property within reasonable
distance Of the business portions of the city,
The time is not far distant when lots and improve
ments in the localities named will command compare
lively high prices. The basis of these land compa
MES u.s. therefore, superior to incorporated companies
generally, and they probably will not in the event of
a revulsion in speculative movements, experience
such extreme fluctuations as many others. The re-
cent variations in the market value of Canton show
that land companies favortes with spectators
Capitalists general thing, particularly par
tal to real estate securty and with such guaranty
of strength and bonade value they do not hesitate
to enter largely into operations Of all the coal com
panies in the market, the most active is Cumber-
land; but prices do not seem to move much either
way. The other coal stocks comparatively scarce
and are steadily improving in market value. Parker
Vein, Phenx, and New Creek, all of the Wesernport
district the greatest avortes among SPECTATORS
and cannot be purchased in any quantity, without
paying handsome advance on current rates. Mica
rsgua Transit well sustained, with moderate sales
The tendency of prices throughout the first Board to-
day was upward, and at the close the market was
steady at our quotations.
At the second board better feeling prevailed bet
prices ruled. Phoenix Coal Company advanced * per
cent; Nicaragua Transit, e; Long Island, II Hudson
River Railroad - There offers for Parker Vein
Coal Company, at mornings prices but sellers. The
abundance of money is getting to be great that it will
be difficult to find employment at anything like
muneratng rates.

The Boston Journal says -
Factory stocks preserve with great seadiness the ad
already obtained, and orders not filed
easily in some rise from per cent being real
lied in purchasing four five shares York sold par
value. The York mills have always been among the
successful Of first class factories and doing an
exceedingly good and profitable business The sales of
fabrics made by these mills in December understand
reached the amount Of $167 600 the largest sales
heve ever made by the company in any single month.
Great Falls brought 500; stark 1870 Bay State Mills ad

An actual dividend of six per cent staring in the

Essex dropped trie and sold NJ III - The truth Is
people do not yet realize the great fact that

prosperity IA the average dividends years past will
fully demonstrate that they have been among our most
productive securities.
