sTy strong Most Of the stocks dealt in by the job
bers were slightly better than on Friday but at the
close the full, quotations were scarcely sustained.
Some Of the leading bear operators were offering
their options with considerable freedom, although
their recent short contra 3ts have not, az whole,
been profitable. The market, no doubt, owes its re-
cent frmness very largely to the short sellers op-
tions which have been put out to a large extent,
and which brig in the bears constantly as
buyers There are still few operators in
". street who consider all railroad shares as worth
lefs and VINO believe Centr WILL in curse Of time,
follow La Crosse and Erie. These operators are con-
slant sellers without regard to market price. An
other class Of besrs who have heretofore been free
sellers have arrived at the conclusion that most of
the fancies have touched points at which il is dan
gerous to sell them short, and consequently
this class are inactive, waiting for an advance
Of the market that they may put out con-
tracts at better rates. This inactivity Of an i'm
portant portion Of the Board, togethef with tue
continued absence Of the public from the speculative
arena gives the market its dull character Central

In the Foreign Exchange market there Is nothing
of importance doing, and rates are unchanged. Com
mercal bils are in rather better credit than OF late,
but are still taken with great caution. The improved
condition of the Liverpool market has given Cotton
bills some currency.
