FRIDAY, juno 3-P. N.

The general feature Of the Stock market was sp-
atby snd beaviness and from inquiry among the
commission houses we learn that the public are tax
ing less interest in the Stock movement than ior
long time past. We have seldom seen so spir1tless
market, the action coming almost entirely from tue
bears who buy TO maturing contracts, and put
out new options TO carry forward their lines Some
Of the prominent operators for the Fall are quiet, but
others have still faith in considerable ial yet 10
come, following a frightened money market ana
continuation Of unfavorable traffic on the rail-
roads TT ere will, undoubtedly, be reaction IN
our market when the enlarged business OF the
Fall commences and the natural activity consequent
upon marketing the crops begins to have its effect
upon railroad earnings but in the immediate future
the elements Of the monetary and business world, GER
tainy Svor the calculations of the bear interest The
bull movement appears TO be for the present confined
mainly TO making atemporary scarcity ofcerhcates OF
certain stocks and forcing the bears to buy OF them at
aproft n Y Central continues to be the most active
stock and was without material change from yester-
day. Cash stock is more plenty than it was early IN
the week but is still somewhat scarce. The market
closed at 72I 3D. having touched 72s during the day.
The most serious fall in Reading, which broke
down to 80, fall of Y cent from yesterday, under
a report from Philadelphia of the failure OF promi-
nent supporter of this stock. Reading has been
long time almost entirely in the hands of Pha-
delpbia operators and the New-York brokers
have ceased to deal in il to any extent. At
the close there was n rally, and the market
recovered to 80; bid Pacific Mail was heavy in
the morning at II, but was afterward in demand at
ia. Further sales were made yesterday at 65 seller
months. Panama quite firm at the first ses-
sion, and sold up to 49, The closing transactions,
however were at 1854. In the Western shares there
was but little movement, and prices had q downward
tendency. The Bond movement was to the extent OF
over 800 900. The bears made an attack upon Mis-
sours and Government 5s, selling the former a. low
e. seller sixty, and the latter at lO3i seller sixty
These sales are doubtless based upon the Anticipation
of more stringent money market. The closing
