New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1861-07-02

The stock market has been dull during the day, but
the transactions indicate strong in prices and the
efforts of the check the buoyancy produced but
little effect Tie commission houses appeared TO have
but few orders and the rmness Of the market appears
TO be due rather to the moderate amount Of shares oer-
ng than 10 any disposition the part of operators IN

money which enables holders 10 carry stock without
difficulty tie daily wants Of the shorts and the scarcity
Of cash stock, it is the general opinion IN the
street that prices have touched the lowest
point for the present. The market, however is
very sensitive and any decided success or reverse OF
the Federal forces would produce strong surge in
prices In the absence Of such adyices the market
has gradually hardened under the hope that some way
may be devised at the approaching session Of Congress
10 bring the country out Of It's present difficulties The
only important rise IN shares in PGcIfc Mail,
which advanced to III against GO on Saturday. There

inc dividend in August. The shares generally were
1 TO | per cent better. Michigan Central was an
exception declining per cent, on tho passing Of the
July dividend, which we understand was agreed upon
at the meeting on Monday last. A small dividend, We
understand has been earned bot has been expended in
improvements Of the Road and equipment. Between
