couple of days, and marked duness in business,
have been the features Of the market. Border
slave State stocks are kept steady by their
scarcity. There are not enough on the market to
supply the wants Of the bears, who bid them mp
day after. day. II is said on the Stock Exchange
that the fears Of private supply of bonds from
Tennessee or Virginia are groundless as a very
small addition TO the stock in the streetwould
break the market down. Brokers are aware. we
presume, that party receiving stocks for sale
from the rebel government, from the govern
ments of the rebel States or from persons acting
for either is guilty Of treason if he executes the
order and RENTS the money. Railroad steaks do
not vary much. On the other hand a war
in the slave States cannot seriously a0sct the
great Western railroads. and hence there is
little encouragement to sell them while, on the
other hand the eve Of the outbreak OF civil war
and actual bloodshed is no time TO speculate for
general rise. The shrewder spectators Of the
street are waiting quietly for the progress Of
events. II, in the war now beginning, the govern.

and values disappear If, on the other hand, the
government pursues a vigorous policy, and brushes
out treason and rebellion with strong hand,
stocks will rise, business rcyi& and values appre-
