TUESDAY,, Oct. 30-P. NJ.

There was a fair degree of activity in The Stock mar
ket this morning, with continuance of the improved
feeling of yesterday, notwithstanding the hammeriDg
of the bears, who while secretly covering their shorts
are apparently still anxious to put out their options.
The Commission houses continue TO receive large
amount of orders to buy, but those on time almost
impossible exscute at fair difference from regular
prices. A very large amount of cash stock has been
taken ont of the street within few days by outsiders
and nearly all the fancies One Commission
house alone has taken out for its customers 900 shares
in the last two days. The reaction of the last few
days very natural one, following the fall of
las! week and the weak holders of stocks being now
early cleared out, the market appears to be on
ass which cannot be disturbed by threats of deunon
An overt act ofrebeio ion the part of the South would
no doubt, produce excitement and there will be,
10 doubt more lees rregularity in this market until
he crisis is passed bat it is evident that for the pres
ent there ia sufficient number of new buyers CON-
bined with the purchases to short stock pre-
vent quotations from touching lower points. Between
the Boards the marke heavy and Central touched
q, but as the Second Board progressed there was
letter feeling insugursted which continued up to the
close of business in the street, when the supply Of
stcCks very small, with good disposition to buy
Rock leland was among the most bnoyaut stocks, aud
touched 66l, against 6il yesterday. The Western
roads all buoyan and the tendency of the whole
fancy market was upward. Bank shares and coal
shares heavy In State stocks and railroad bonds
there well distributed business without import
ant change in rates. Michigan Southern Second Mort
gage Bonds improved T. ct. The Erie Issues were
rather heavy. Missouris improved = Ct, but Virgin

sterling sold l0 from eecOnd hands but at the close
1881 was asked. Coed document bills sold as low as
1867 Francs were irregular at 5.25 GJ.Hl. The de-
maad for exchange is quite light, and many parties
are predicting an import of specie from England,
which we think neither probable nor desirable. We
have specie enough AT home If We can keep it here
