THURSDAY March 20--6 p. M.
The stock marke. took quite favorable turn this
morning At tne second board Yesterday the upward
movement commenced, and the arrival of the
steamship Persia this morning, from Liverpool
with adyices seven days later confirmed it. At the
first board to-day nearly every stock sold realized
better prices. In Erie and Reading there was con-
siderable activity. The latter was decidedly the
favorite at greater advance than any other stock
experienced 1t opened at 92k, and closed firm at
92s per cent, seller thirty days Western railroad
stocks were not in demand to-day at current rates
Railroad bonds were more active than usual, at
higher prices. At the first board Illinois Central
bonds advanced l per cent? Nicaragua Transit, 4;

Southern and Michigan Central sold to moderate ex
tent this morning. at prices current at the close yes
terday. Cleveland and Toledo dividend bonds sold
to-day at 70 per cent The Nicaragua Transit affair
has assumed no new shape. An effort ID being made
at Washington to get the government to take the
matter in hand, but with what probability Of success
does not yet appear. The stock is moving up with
Others, and many holders feel confident that all
will come out right at the end. The company's af
fairs are in good hands, and nothing will be left
done to extricate them from their present position
We understand that Mr.. White, the company's coun
se has been telegraphed to to leave for Washington
ut once This looks as though the government was
about taking some step in the matter In the mean
time, the new line Of steamers will have plenty Of
room for operations. The alker-Garrson-Morga
and Randolph party have now the route entirely to
themselves, aud the public will be much disap-
pointed if splendid line Of steamships ia not put
and the route kept open. They must make up their
minds to the steamers for glory for there is not
Che ghost OF a chance for anything else.

sales of bonds and stocks were made at auction by

The government has arranged for the payment
of the rest of the Mexican indemnity, amounting to
about one and half million Of dollars. That
amount will soon be drawn from the subtreasury of
this port. This was generally known in the street
to-day, and had some effect in initiating the stock
market,

were rather weak, and stocks were offered freely at
closing rates. Illinois Central bonds sold at 80 per
cent this afternoon. This security is rapidly appre
ciating in actual and market value. These bonds
will ultimately be entirely absorbed by European
capitalists The success of the land department
has given great confidence to foreign holders. Pa

board. The improvement in prices is bringing out

last year. The earnings for February are reported

for al. Western railroads. The winter of 1876
was bad enough, bus the one just past was worse.

DANGEROUS CorETEEFEII.-We have been
shown, says the Philadelphia Sun, counter
felt five dollar gold piece, which was most
admirably executed, and for which We would
advise our readers TO look out. The piece is
nearly Of the size, color and weight of the
true half eagle, but its spurious character can
be detected by ringing it, as il sounds, when
thrown down, precisely like lead. On q very
close examination the milling on the edges
appears to be cut too deep. The piece we
saw was dated 1855, and slight detection
from the right position may be observed in
the last figure in the date. We have no
doubt but that numbers Of these bogus coins
are in circulation.

The KANSAS TRouDLEs.-The President is
"a King decisive measures to restore order in
Kansas, the peace Of which is threatened by
the two factions now hostileIy urrayed against
each other. The partisan papers, which first
abused the President for not interposing
sooner, and before the law authorized him 10
do so, are just as bitter now against him, be-
cause he has done so under authority. They
want him to use the power Of the governmen,
in behalf Of their party, but when he seems
resolved TO use it against both till peace is
restored and insurrection crushed, they assail
Kim for the act, because il will interfere with
the designs they had in view in fomen,ing
these disturbances, and producin2 the present
crisis. The country will approve the tirmness
and mpartiality Of the administration. The
exercise of its power and authority will check
the mad endeavors of excited men to plunge
the country into civil war. When both par.
ties are reduced to submission to law, perhaps
they will learn to value it better, and be dis
posed afterwards to be governed by it and
no. by violence. Ledger

TnE AMERICAN MINIsTER-While every
citizen Of Nicaragua recognizes the appropri-
ateness Of the action taken by the Govern
ment in suspending' diplomatic relations with
the United States Government, all deplore
the unfortunate position in which it has pla-

appreciate him rs an officer and gentleman,
aud on Thursday evening, when it was ascer-
tanned what the action Of the Government
had been, all the different bands OF the city
proceeded to his residence and gave him a
serenade. The national airs of the Union
were performed and IA round Of cheers adj
mnistered. We regret to learn that the
American Minister has been ndisposed dur
ing the last two days. 1t is to be hoped he
will soon be fully recovered again.
