tECoND BOARD.
WEDNESDAY. Nov. l4-P.

The Improvement exhibited in the Stock market
yesterday afternoon continued to-day, and a much
more hopeful feeling existed among stock operators,
which also extended 10 the Money market. The first
session OF the Board very excited, brokers con-
tending eagerly for purchases az they did few days
ago for sales The sitting not over until Il o'clock.
The commission-houses had an increased amount of
orders, many of which were on time, and could In
most cases not be executed. The difference between
cash and buyers 80 and 60 days the leading fances
was and 4 = cent, showing that buyers have more
faith than funds. The low points touched yesterday
also attracted the attention of capitalists, and we hear
in all quarters Of orders to buy for cash. These pur
chases went far toward giving firm tone to the market
and to continue the upward movement, bringing In the
street operators and shorts as buyers. The bears
operated cautiously, few Of them having much
confidence in a further fall, although they look for
serious fluctuations even when the market assumes
permanently forward movement. Toward the close Of
the session some descriptions, especially Western
shares were not firm the reports of November traffic
being less satisfactory than those have been recev-
ing during the past three months. Between the
Boards the market irregular, and the Second
Board which opened rather weak, became firm al the
