THURSDAY, july l9-P.

Before the First Board assembled this morning,
New-York Central was sold down to 49,, and it was
generally anticipated that other stocks would TO some
extent follow, and thus establish the reaction which
has been for some time earnestly but vainly looked
for To the surprise of a majority of the Board the
market proved very strong during the whole session,
and even New-York Central after touching So, be-
came frmer and closed in demand at 81. Hudson
River was very buoyant and with fair business ad-
vapced 10 543, Erie, Harlem-old and preferred
shares were active and better, aud for the Western
shares generally there well distributed and very
active inquiry. The only exceptions were the Mlchl-
gan roads which were rather dull, and about cent
lower. Illinois Central and Galena were very firm,
and for the former the quotations were cent high
er Between the sessions, New-York Central was
marked down to 82f and other stocks were sold at
decl ne of 1aI = cent from the morning prices.
These transactions established the opening quotations
for the Second Board, and the break was quite
general, although very moderate. The shares OF
the Harlem road were an exception 10 the general
market and for the Preferred stock 43 was paid
ON the call Toward the close Of the session prices
appeared TO have settled upon frmer ground,
but there was no important change after the
adjournment. We notice sales of Brooklyn Central
Railroad at the First Bard 100 This is the first
transaction in the stock at the Board The Brooklyn
Central is one Of the horse roads which commenced
operations about year since, and is paying quarterly
dividends of T. cent The trade in railway bonds
contir ues brisk and prices are generally higher, not
withstandiDg the decline in shares. The reaction OF
the afternoon was not unwecome to operators OF the
Stock Exchange the market having acquired specu-
latye impetus far beyond the expectation of even the
most hopeful and especially for Western shares There
is too much hope and confidence in regard to the future
to admit Of any decided continuous decline, and the
probability is that the market will gain strength in the
