Tuesday. February l2,-P. N.

As we anticipated the Stock market to-day shows
very active and buoyant aspect The tone OF the re-
marks Of the President elect at Indianapolis although
indicating that the policy of the new Administration
would be the reverse Of the quieting policy OF Mr.
Buchanan was not sufficiently alarming TO neutralize
the infun Of the favorable returns and advices from
the Border States and the from Washington
that " the thing il settled" The shorts rushed in TO
buy privately and through other brokers, while openly
hammeriDg and the street operators generally followed
their lead. Outside Of the street and the usual stock
spectators cannot learn that much interest taken
in the present movement. The commission houses
have very moderate amount of orders and as many
Of these are 10 sell buy. The present action Is
thus far confined TO the street mainly and therefore, ia
more likely 20 be a temporary movement than II the
constituencies had been more widely difused. 1t will
be doubtless successful 10 certain extent, but 1t ss
dangerous movement inasmuch as the pacifeatlon OF
the Border States lie by means certain and as the
advent of a new Administration Is near hand, the
policy Of which If understood 10 be the blockade OF the
seceg ports the retakDg Of the seized forts and the
holding Of those std in our possession. The Cotton
States will not quietly submit TO this and il requires
no prophet to predict what would be the effect OF
collision between the forces Of the two sections upon our
Stock market The transactions Of the First Boardgave
promise of great strength during the day and between
Boards prices were well sustained At the Second
Board the business unusually large at further ad-
vance in nearly every description. Central, which
opened in the morning at 1911 sold at 7S, against III

tive than Of late ard touched Ill Hudson River was
steady The market for Western shares was buoyant,
the favorable returns Of the traffic thus far this year
having encouraged operators for rise Rock Island
shows an advance of Ii y cent; Toledo, II y cent;
