this morning in consequence OF the favorable inter
probation of the Washington dispatch. The stand
taken by Mr.. Douglas in his speech yesterday in re-

upon the market a. an indication of modification Of
feeling among the opposition and disposition to give
the new Administration fair trial There was quite
an active demand for stocks although mainly confined
to Street operators the regular commission houses
having apparently but few orders The bears aP-
appeared ndisposed TO hammer with any energy,
while free bidding for buyers options assisted ma
eraliy in sustaining cash stock, at the same time IN
dicating revival of the bull movement. Although the
market is still very sensitive to reports from the South,

followed by ohers. decline in cotton looked for,
and some fears are felt that the strngency in the

securities in large quantities. This ast event, how
ever, has frequently beeu predicted in the Street,
and the prediction has very seldom been

from the bears. The of the Southern dispatches
was considered rather encouraging, and hope was
felt that way might still be devised by the wis

with the South. The market closes with general adj
