BALTIMORE, November 3, 1858.
The suggishness which has prevailed in the Stocl
market for sometime past still continues and there
was scarcely anything done to-day except in North
ern Central Railroad, which exhibits declining
tendency. At the Board there sales of 5Ot
shares of this stock at S225s cash and buyer day:
and S22A buyer GO days, closing at S2219 bid S225s
asked, regular way 8 lower than yesterday. Af
ter the board sales of400 shares made at 1925
buyer 90 days. In Baltimore and Ohio there were
transactions the closing bid being at S5G13, p
lower than the previous day, but held at S5s. The
only sale of Bank stock was II shares Bank OF Com
merce at S25 the same as last rate. We note sale
of 10 shares Santa Clara Mining at Sl9I, which is
the the price last obtained. For Canton
S2l was offered, Il higher than yesterday. In
Baltimore city Gs there nothing doing, 1890
were offered "A lower than the closing price OBJ
tanned Yesterday, 90 being bid, 994 asked There
is no change to note in Railroad bonds, and we
have no transactions to report in any description.
At New York stocks were generally pretty steady
to-day, with dull market. We are without any
report of the sales at the Second Board. Virginia
6's fell off Is, and Missouri advanced q. Erie i'm
proved Is but Cleveland and Toledo receded u
Other fancies remain without change.
The New York Tribune of to-day, in speaking o.
the money market of that city, says:
The money market generally does not sympathize tc

Below will be found complete list of the of
taken possession of by Sheriff Mahers, under authority
from the Superior Court 1t will be that the
sum total amounts to 81 Sl46s66o5, of which $4,000 is
in cash.
On Saturday afternoon Jas P. Kilbreath Esq called
upon the Sheriff and made demand for the surrender of
the assets by virtue of his appointment receiver by
the United States Court As anticipated Sheriff Ma
theirs pointed to the broad seal of Superior Court as
his authority for holding to the funds and declined
to hand over any portion of the Trust Company pro-
Perty which happened to be in his possession Mr..
Kilbreath. therefore, returned without the spos to
counsel with his friends to the next proper step
to be taken in the business. What it will be remains
cited before the United States Court con-
tempt,
We understand that the Judges of the United States
Court very firm in the decision rendered last week at
the time Mr.. kilbreah appointed receiver If this
be correct the full strength of the law will nm
doubedy be put forth compel obedience to the
of the Court Should the proceedings finally be carried on
IN the United States Court several important points will
have to be decided, which will be sharply contested at
every step For instance, effort will be com
pei the banks that may have received funds from the
Trust Company since its failure disgorge the various
amounts, to into the general aggregate for the benefit
of all Another position will be compel stockhod
who have received dividends the company be-
came insolvent to back the paid The third
position however, and which will be contested with
desperation will be to make the personally liza
gate, between three and four millions of dollars a
When or where it will end can only be matter conjec
ture.
We suhoin the assest in the hands of the Sheriff
which has been prepared with care:

1t would be difficult to say what be realized
from this immense in large proportion of
the railroad bonds valueess the paper upon
which they printed while others may be regarded as
good The bonds of the city, and counties in this and
other States, good and will eventually be paid but
they comprise but small portion of the the
S3S 43l in individual notes it is safe predict that not
over ten per cent upon the total will be re-
allied portion of these secured by mortgages upon
real estate but are mixed with other transactions
that 1t may require years to arrive at final settlement
Some of these notes dated far back as lS4S nor
ton of them have been renewed times and others
protested and kept on hand The indebtedness of one
firm reaches 100000 for which il would nrobabIv
be wisdom receipt full very liberal discount In
other words the claim he regarded as in the same
position the Trust Company itsef-amos worthless
We trust that every creditor company will draw
whatever consolation may be possible from the exhibit
which we make of the assets in the hands of the Sheriff.
