FRIDAY, sept. oO-P. NJ
Business at the Stock Exchange has been rather dul
throughout the day snd the market has had upon the
whole an unmistakable downward tendency. The
leading stocks opened at slight decline prices, but
on the .econd cal of the morning session partial
rally was established, and prices were shade higher
at the adjournment This position was lot maintained
however for any length Of tms ard before the after
noon sessor commenced prices were lower again AT
the Second Board there was further moderate de-
cline, and the market was FOX the time quite heavy
Later in the day, the quotations were fraction
better than the lowest points established,
but the tone Of the market under
went no decided change. Operators for the
rise have made no especial effor to support the
market for several days, confning their movements
mostly to NewYork Central and leaving other stocks
TO take the chances of speculation; but on the other
hand the bears have made but light demonstrations
against the market, and prices seem to have settled
down slo Wy under their weight and the general
dullness Of business So far as the operations OF out
siders are to be taken into the account, there has
evidently been gre.t falling of in that support,
unsubstantial and limited il was, and just nov
the orders on tine are very small. Even
in New-York Central the movements have been want
ug in vigor and spirit, and the constant purchases
of the clique have been insufficient to raise quota
tiops above Sll The dealings in this stock were the
most important of the day, and the highest point
touched was ST. but later in the afternoon the stock
was done at Sli, at which price the market closed
dull bat steady. The increase in September over
September of last year will be between F5'Oeo and
800 OO0 Western shares were lower, without an eK-
ception and after the Second Board were sold down
d, y cent below TIE registered prices. Rock Island
touched &c; New-York Central 81, and Galena 73l
The most decided fal was in Toledo which went
down TO 2lI Pacific Mail declined to 7os
a. the First Board, but better in the afternoon.
The market was adversely affected by the announce
ment of change in the mail transportation by which
it appeared that the Northern Light of Vanderbilts
line is to take the mails of Oct. 5. The statement was
based upon an advertisement which sppesredn one OF
the weekly papers, which we have since learned was
unauthorized. The movement in State stocks was
not important The closing prices we're: For United
