SECOND BOARD
"WEDNESDAY. May 3O-P. N.

The stock market continues to be unfavorably niu-
enced by the dsquietDg tone of the foreign advices,
which keeps back buyers and induces some sales from
parties who look upon the future Of European politics
as squaly. In the domestic elements there does not
appear to be anything to check an upward movement
Of prices The traffic of Western Railroads is very
satisfactory. The money market is easy and working
still easier The crop prospects are all that could be
desired while the state of foreign trade indicates
anything but serious drain of specie. Mean
while, however, Wall street is under the inHu-
ence of the reaconary feeling, and while the job
bers evnce but little disposition TO increase their short
lines the hopeful portion of the operators show
equal indifference TO resist the downward tendency.
Both parties appear disposed to await the receipt Of
more definite advices from Europe. At the Second
Board the market was duh and heavy, but with no
pressure of stocks on the market The latest quotations

MICHIGAN CENTRAL RAILROAD
NEws.-The n. Y. Tribune of Thurs
day says: "The Michigan Central,
with but two years operation under the
sinking fund, has $4,000 TO its credit
already, and before the year expires
will have $25O,OOO. The wisdom of
these measures, which arc designed to
to extinguish within term of years,
the great incubus upon the Railway
system of the country, will be acknowl-
edged throughout the community, as
the principle which goes to the root of
Railway trouble, by furnishing means
for the removal of debt, at the same
time SO gradually that, in times Of or
binary prosperity, there will be no SER
ious interference with dividends.
Within five years, the annual purchases
of the Trustees Of the Michigan Cen
trail Sinking fund will absorb the float
ing bonds, to an extent which must
carry prices above the par value-the
accumulation during the time rolling
up to an amount exceeding 100000
and within ten years the ABSORPTION
will reach a sum not far from 81, OOO,-
900.

SARzA.-We have long supposed this
celebrated drug, had come to be an
exploded humbug, but we are assured
by those skilled in the healing art, that
not the Sarsaparilla itself is to be
blamed for the conclusion, but the mis-
cradle worthless preparations of it, that
have been palmed off upon the COM
neutrality-suspicious. which contain
about as much of its virtues as they do
of gold dust. 1t is commercial fact
that almost all of the Sarsaparilla gath
cred in the world, is consumed in the
old countries of Europe, where the
science of medicine, has reached its
highest perfection, and where they
know the best what to employ for the
mastery Of disease. Hence we are
glad TO find that we are now to have a
compound of this excellent alternative,
which can be relied on, and our COM
munity will not need be assured, that
anything Door. AVER makes, is worthy
of their confidence. He has been for
years engaged in eliminating this rem

The Kansas Bill through the House.

We are glad to be able to announce
that the bill for the admission of Kan
sas into the Union under the Wyan-
dotte Constitution, has passed the
House by a large majority. But three
Northern Democrats, English ofInd.,
Sickles of n. Y, and Scott of CAL, }
had the nerve to stand up for the Lee
compton policy, by which the Admin
istration sought to exclude Kansas from
the Union on account of her free prin-
ciples. An equal number of South
Americans, { Etheridge of Tenn, Web
ster of Nd, and Barrett, J voted for the
bill. Twenty-Five members were alb
sent, including Is Southern and three
Northern Democrats, and Northern
and Southern Anti-Administration
members.
This is a result auspicious for the
final success of the bill, and one that
will present it before the Pro-Slavery
Senate in a shape to show how much
real respect for free government exists
among the majority Of that body.
