SATURDAY, Aug. 1872. NJ

TIE stock market had an active appearance this
morning and opened with continuance of the upward
feeling Of yesterday afternoon, but the call pro-
ceeded the bear clique made strong demonstrations,
and succeeded in checking the buoyant feeling. The
nn6er-tow, however, was strong and there was con-
piderabe disposition shown to buy long time.
This hestancy of the market lie not at all surprising,

OF the fact that the improvement was in advance of
the results upon which it was based These results
now being received and the largely increased earnings
of the Western roads scarcely be published week
after week without stimulating prices TO still higher

the public The majority of the members of the Board,
as well of the street operators operating for the
rise and are aided by outside spectators, but few
influential members of the Board, having short line
ou', in some cases at much lower figures rssis with
such means as they bring to BEAR the progress of
the market and with moderate The elements
of the market however, favor further rise, and
lees some unexpected unfavorabe evsnt 10 the political
or financial world occurs, the probability certainly is
that the resistance to the advance will not be sufficient
to arrest it. After the Board the market rather
heavy but toward the close of business in the street.
