FRIDAY, July l4-P. NJ.

The Stock market continues langud and droeping.
The changes from yesterday not very marked gener-
oily but nearly every description is lower. Speculation,
which the great support of the Fancy Stock market
appears be gradually dying out This state of things
= materially assisted by the unwillingness of many Of
the best stock houses operate time for their
strongest CUSTOMERS in the present uneasy state Of the
market. We know several houses who refuse nearly
every order offered. Ths Of course, has effect
upon the stock market, although it is no in
dication Of any distrust in the general prosperity
of the country. Some of the stock houses have suffered
90 severely lately from the delinquency of their principals
that they have adopted line Of exiromes caution. The
principal decline to-day in Reading, which went TO
&C. but closed at 6s a6sss further fall of u cent.
There appears to be little doubt that the dividend will be
passed. although the earnings of the road very large.
The earnings for the past months repoNsd to
have been cent the capital and for the past twelve
months $500 coo greater than for the previous twelve
months. The net earnings Of August are estimated at
e25o,0o0. Yet, with this large and profitable business,
is thought best to take money needed for the dvi.
derd aud pay the floating debt. In the present
state Of the money market in respect to railroad
acceptances and bonds, there appears to be other
