THURSDAY Dec. 20-P.h N.
The Stock market has been active and buoyant
through the day and there has been about mnch ca
gerness to buy for the rise there "A few days
.pce 10 sell for the decline The tone of the market
seems 70 have undergone radical change, and scarcely
a yestige of panic feeling remains. The demand for
State Stocks was quite brisk and note further ad-
vance Of = cent in Tennessees and = cent in Mis-
souria with large sales. The entire Bond list was
frmer and better and the bidding for Railway issues
ia decidedly more animated. The business in Railway
shares was large and well distributed, and the upward
movement was steady through the session. New-fork
Central. Erie and Hudson River were from II to2V
cent better and closed strong The Western shares were
higher with scarcely an exception, but the most impor-
tan movements were in Illinois Central and Toledo,
both of which went up, with spirited buying, and al
though hammered by some Of the bears were firmly
sustained at the improvement. The dealings in Toledo
during the day embraced nearly 5000 shares and lot
of 900 shares changed hands at % 80. Between the
Boards the arrival of the Persia with -, 100000 in
specie and favorable accounts from England was an
nounced and the market received a further favor
able impulse At the Second Board 1t was
very strong, and generally higher. The only
execution was Michigan Central, which sold
at 49, a decline of I from the lowest price of the
morning Doubts in regard to the dividend have prob
ably influenced this decline Tie most important adj
vances were in Illinois Central and Toledo, both OF
which were in active demand. Hudson River was in
request and scarce at 49, There was considerable ex
element during the session, and the dealings had more
shirt and strength than have been displayed for some
weeks The more favorable Indications politically and
financially have changed the policy of some Of the
leading OPERATORS of the street, and the bull interest
appears TO 10 getting TO he decidedly the strongest
