WEDNESDAY, Feb. 22-P. ".

There WIS no salient feature in the stock market to-
CAV and the quotations OF the prominent ancies vary
but slightly from those of yesterday The largest ac-
yity was in Central. The transfer books opened to-
day, and some parties who supposed there might be
scarcity Of cash stock had provided themselves with
shares to meet the demand. There was, however an
abundant supply, some 5000 shares coming on the
market. and the tendency was downward from the
ope1ing The first sales were made at ia, bat at IL
a large amount of stock was thrown on the Market
and the bears made demonstration of considerable
yiaor. AT the close, the market had fallen TO ~ and
H. seller sixty. The adyices from Albany are quite
contradictory in regard to the bills before the Legsa
tu1e affecting rarc ad property, but tue impression ap
pears to be that the tod bill will pass and the pro rata
bill be defeated There are also rumors that the Gov
ernor will veto the toll bill as it passed the Senate
az differing materially from the tolliog recommended
ton in his message Pacific Mail has lOst its prom
inence as a speculative stock at the Board,
and az compared with its erratic course for the
psst week or two ia very steady The aggregate reg
Uttered sales to-day were on 800 shares, opening and
closing a. 81. Panama strong, although not ac-
TIVE and closed at 1874 bid. New Jersey transports-
on continues TO decline, and sold to-iay at IT, New
jersey Central, on the contrary, Is again better,
and advanced to lO5l with small sales. Inc
Western shares are neglected and lower with
the exception Of Toledo. Reading does not
quite sustain the advance of yesterday and shows but
little activity In the Bond market there was nothing
of importance DONE The quotations are practically un-
changed but yrgnias recovered something OF the de-
cline of the Second Board yesterday. The last prices
