The stock market was active to-day, but by no
means buoyant. The most important and decided
movement to-day was in Gaena and Chicago, which
advanced two per cent from the opening, on the
sale of about four hundred shares. Cleveland and
Toledo sold pretty freely to-day, and slightly i'm
proved from the opening. Reading, Erie, Hudson
Railroad and others were sold to some extent at
lower prices. At the first board Nicaragua Transit

Central bonds advanced per cent; Michigan

small sale of New Jersey Railroad stock was made
to-day at l22 per cent; Hartford and New Haven Rail
road stock sells at about 122 per cent while Galena
and Chicago-a better and more productive stock
than either of them-is selling at ia per cent. This

The Board Of Brokers adjourned this morning
upon the announcement Of the death Of Nelson
Robinson, Esq, member. Mr.. Robinson has been
prominent broker for some years, and has been
engaged in and identified with some Of the largest
enterprises Of the day. Upon the resignation of
Thomas Townsend, Esq, as Treasurer of the Erie
Railroad, Mr.. Robinson was elected to fill the va
cancy; but his health would not permit him to
tnue in the discharge of the duties devolving
the position, and he resigned some time since. He
was about retiring from business, and contemplated
visiting Europe; but it was destined that all such
hopes and anticipations should not be realized
There was no second board to-day, and operations
were all made outside. In the street stocks gene
rally were lower. Erie sold at Sc per cent? Galena
and Chicago, ll33 a ia; Reading, o. Hudson
River was offered at SO per cent, and no sales;
Cleveland and Toledo, TIA. The market closed weak

Our anticipatons relative to the discount depart
ment have been fully realized. We did not look for
any increase or decrease Of consequence. The specie
item is less satisfactory. With large receipts from
California with large payments from the SubTreas-
ury, and with limited expectation, we find small
increase in the aggregate. If with the advantages
of these supplies the stock on hand shows no greater
increase we must look for important reduction in
the total during the present week, if the California
steamers fail to arrive in time to include what they
bring in the bank returns. We do not expect to see
much change in the aggregate of loans until about
the middle Of April.
