Our Wednesdays New York exchanges
thus refer to Tuesdays Stock Market;
The firmness in the Stock Market noticed
in the afternoon dealings Of yesterday, was
renewed at or before the opening of the
early session of the Board of Brokers this
morning. The various political dispatches
in the morning papers from the seat of Gov
eminent and from South Carolina, although
rejecting no settled opinion as to the ulti-
mate result of our present troubles, failed to
neutralize the good influences of the English
news by the steamer of the 7th December.
made public on Monday afternoon. The re-
lief to the Export trade, to the Foreign Ex-
changes and to Financial confidence gen.
orally, by this and the preceding arrival, is
unquestioned, and business outside the Stock
Exchange goes forward with more steadi-
ness in consequence. The orders to buy
State and other Stocks came into the First
Board with some freedom, and the advance
paid over average sales of yesterday was
equal to 1@2 per cent.
New York Central before the Board
brought IS per cent, cash; Illinois Central at
the Board 65 per cent, and New York and
Erie 29B per cent. All these were favora-
bly, moved by the English advices, but the
advance brought forward sellers of the cash
Stock, and soon after the adjournment, in
deed, on the second call of the list it was
quite manifest that the spectators for the
reaction were encouraged by the fresh sup
ply OF certificates, and prices fell back in the
afternoon to 73 for Central, 62L for Illinois
and 2S1z for New York and Erie. The other
Railway Shares moved in proportion to
these leading speculatives, up in the morn
ing and down again at the afternoon Board.
The State Stocks also rose in the morning to
"a for Tennessee and 69 for Missouri, and fell
back l per cent. at the close. Panama
Shares were per cent. higher than yester-
day and in demand and Pacific Mail brought
80 per cent, buyer thirty days.
Respecting Tuesdays Monetary matters in
New York, Wednesdays Times observes;
Money and Exchange affairs continue to
show gradual improvement, not so decid Z.
edly in rates as in the ease with which ne
gotiations are accomplished. There is more
sale for frst-class mercantile Paper, outside
OF Bank, at l2@l5 per cent, and continued
and even cheerful disposition, at most of the
large Banks, to accommodate their regular
dealers. The screw-steamer Etna from Liy-
erpool, December 4, delivered to Messrs
Browns to-day, f50,0OO, or about $3.50 900,
in Gold, and fl6,000 10 other parties, and
about f400, 900 additional, or nearly $4,000,
600, is looked for by the AHanfc of the 9Th
Of December, and Persia, of the sth Of De.
,ember. ...
These receipts are timely to the aid of the
freedom of the Exchange movement, but the
effect thus far, on the value of Bills, is not
very decided. The truth undoubtedly is,
that the Import trade owe but moderate
balances abroad, compared with the amount
of bills created here and at the South on
Grain and Cotton; so that the shippers of
Gold from the other side will be able to real
Ize, perhaps Unexpectedly to some of them,
very profitable returns.
The standard Bankers rates on London,
for the Asia, are lO3k@1O4 per cent; tran
