"WEDNESDAY. Nav 23-P. NJ.


The Stock Board this morning was active and buoy
ant The depressed feeling noticed yesterday has been
entirely from-proyng the correctness of our
views expressed yesterday that the decline was only
spasrnodc reaction of generally advancing market
The dstrust in regard TO Pacific Mail still Influences
the movement in that stock but it has now but little
influence upon other descriptions Of stocks The street
soon RECEIVERS from such isolated disturbing causes as
this especially when the general elements OF specula-
ton are all in favor Of rise. The bear Jobbers,
who were anxious sellers yesterday at lower prices,
did not eymce the same desire to-day to realize
at the higher rates. They were few IN number and
sluegish in their movements. Central opened at o2t,
and was steady on the call. AT the Second Board,
without important transactions, 1t was S2s, bid. Ihe
street is full of rumors in regard 10 Pacific Mall and
the result is wide fluctuations in the stock After sell
ING down from SSs to 81 it rallied 1881, buyer sixty
and then fell back again 10 81, bid The impression
il now very general in the street that the over
issue is much larger than has been supposed
Current rumor places it AT about 2,iOO shares,
and this statement is said to have Issued from the
office Of the Company. On the other hand,
J&aEtes protesting TO have their information
from the Company deny the truth Of these rulnors.
Trus or untrue tie sales Of Pacific Mail are influenced
by them and innocent holders Of the stock are kept IN
sssgense as to their true policy Of action We wait
anxiously for some official information which we may
give TO tie public; in the mean time we are free to
cDIess that apprehensiOns are that the matter Is
much more serious than at FIRST were led to believe
If 20, the blame does not rest exclusively on the
shoulders Of Mr.. Hoffman. 1T is understood that Ger
tifcaes for 80 900 shares have been presented and
the dividend paid, ard that fraudulent certih
Gates have yet appeared-that is, no certificates

We refrain from printing the numerous rumOrs which
are ahoat most of them doubtless manufactured for
s;ock-jobbng purposes in the hope that the Company
will soon be PIT pared 10 issue card which will re-
eys the uncertainty which al present exists IN regard
10 the real facts of tue Panana continues TO
svmpatbize with Pacific Mail and shows further dc
cline selling at 1891 Hudson River recovered from
the reaction Of yesterday and sold as high as 4s3
The number Of in the cattle trains Of Monday was
l6O instead of 100, reported yesterday The ex-
tending Of the Second Mortgage Bonds due this year
going On very successfully, and the advance in the
market p,ce facilitates materially this process
After this is arranged, and 1t is practically done, the
Board has no debt due until lS69-70. The Western
shares with the exception Of Gaena, were 1rm Rock
Island recovered TO 70. The sales yesterday Were on
telegraphc report Of the destruction by gale, Of the
Rock River bridge TIE traffic freight will be inter
