sEcorD BOARD.

SATURDAY. April 4-P. NJ.

With feir amount of business doing among the
brokers' the Stock Board shows special feature of in
terst Prices irregular, and the tendency is much
the for some weeks past. Any slight improve
Dent in the market is followed by reaction, and the
quotations gradually settle down. We ascribe this I'M
favorable state Of the market partly as we have be-
fore noticed to the general avoidance Of stock specu-
atioLs by the public at large, and partly to the in
preston which has taken hold of many Of the in.
fuental operators in the street, that most OF
the stocks daily bought and sold at the Board
are selling above their intrinsic valae, and that shot
sales persisted in must be profitable eventually This
has emboldened them TO cell such stocks freely and 10
resist lie by sales rather than assist it by buy
ing n their shots. Such state Of things as this i. no
novelty in the street. but in this the selling ap
ptars to be distinguished by unusual bo!dne.,
and TO be unusually general among the
members Of the Board. There viii be turn of
course as there has always been he retofote when
the bull movement will resume its sway ssaiu; but
when we to have this turn is question We have
received many conflicting answers to. Attic Second
Board the market was inactive, bat strong for some of
the Western shares-Southern Michigan, Toledo, La
Crosse, &c. After the Second Board the prices were
not sustained and Erie fell off to 52s - Ia decline
