Esrly sales ct the mornings Board were at slight
improvement closing prices Of yesterday but, as
the business of the session progressed stocks appeared
to lose much of the steainess noticed yesterday, and
at the second call each Of the prominent speculative
shares, there not only great lack of animation,
but general disposition to sel,-the movements show.
irg an unusual degree Of laDguor and indifference.
The hot weather has no doubt considerable influence
upon the market but the great cause of the present
stsgpaton in stock operations is to be found in the
disincinaton of leading men in the street to take any
strong or decided part in the movements The support of
outsderss also lacking but this to be expected while
the influence of prominent operators is not
of rise The bears continue to offer contracts at the
option of the seller freely and had less troubetodsyn
making deliveries although cash stock of the Erie,
Reading and Hudson River is still quite scarce, Ga
lena was hammered with vigor on the strength Of
the report Of which presented the substance yester
day. but stood up very we'll until the second cs when
quotations broke to 84} and the stock closed heavy

Toledo both, however, a. a eight decline in closing
TRANSACTIONS Rock Island was heavy from the start,
selling down to 73 at the second call closing dull. Erie
was one of the rmest stocks during the session. bat
had no animation. Pacific Mail advanced ! v cent,
and was in good request, though not active.
In the afternoon tie market fell of more decidedly,
and upon very limited sales. There was no special
effort to depress prices but Stocks fell apparently as
much on account of the profound suggshnsss of bus
ness as for any cause Bank transactions during the
day not important, AID piices are tOleraby well
sustained. Missouri 6s close at decline Of y cent
