The cash price Of registered saes SO GS6l but 81
was bid after the Second Board, an advance Of
cent The mQyement is based upon the probable pas
ssge Of Free Banking Law in Missouri, the Stocks OF
that State being adopted the bass for circulation.
The amount Of Bank capital which can be authorized
under the amendment Oft Constitution is $50 600 900,
and is supposed that the demand for Socks by Banks
will cause the &c 10 advance to tde neshbOrhood Of
par The short ssles are probably induced by the ex-
pectation that considerable amounts Of Stock will be
returned and the market by embarrassed Indiana and
Illinois Free Banks, the circulation Of which is being
driven home rapidly. Other State Stocks are steady.

We al uded some days since TO the uuexaupled high
prces Of fuel in Cincinnati, and the noble conduct Of
Mr.. Charles Gould and other managers Of the Ohio
and Mississippi Railroad Company, in furnishing wood
10 the poor at 81 5O6sj T. cord, when the current
price was slOa $l2. By the annexed extract from
Cincinnati circular we see that other roads are doing
the came thing:
"Weaher intensely cold; the fuel famine, ia conss-
quence Of the great beray OF the several Tairosds
in the transportation OF fuel - The exclusion OF o!ef
business and for the poor without charge, Is aostng,
and q more comfortable condition OF things now
exists"

Ere Stocks and Bonds, Panama, &C., most Of which
can be executed.
