The business ofthe Stock Board was very large to-
sy and the unexpectedly favorable character Of the
foreign advices gave the market very buoyant move
u,snt. The registered transactions include S63, 600
State Stocks s141, 900 Railresd Bonds, and 1900
seares Stocks. The transactions not registered were
so large and the aggregate Of the day not less pro
baby than g. 600 000 The operators for rise went
IN vigorously and large portion of the business
done on buyers options. The market at the First
Board fell off somewhat from the advance prices
established at the opening, but at and after
The Second Board there was buoyant
feeling and prices recovered, closing generally at the
highest points of the day, with upward tendency.
1he speculative feeling appears to be now thoroughly
aroused and many outsiders who at this season OF the
year generally have unemployed funds are giving Or
ders usual with outsiders mostly on the bull side
The advance to-day, however, is scarcely much as
might have been expected, when consider the tone
Of the foreign news, and the large advance in
Consos. 1t would probably have been greater
but for the cheek given it by the free sales
Of leading party, who had control Of large
parcels Of cash stock few sellers options
scattered through the list show that there is still
bear here and there left with to sell short. This
may be considered as favorable feature we presume
% according to the street the stock market could no
be sustained but for the purchases Of the shorts to I'll
their contracts. The street
