The series OF brilliant victories to our arms an
nounced yesterday bad the anticipated effect upon
the Stock market this morning, aud, with u very
large amount Of dealings, there was general ad-
vance in yrices. The sesson lasted until about :
O'Clock. Before the meeting OF the Board, there
were large transactions in Government securities at
nn Improvement Of l0ls cent and the demand
was undated at the open OF the Board and nearly
500, 900 changed hands at full prices-a larger
.uonpt ,ye think. than ever before sold at one
Board. TIE 6s of 1891 sold al lOJs lOol. The 3s
of 1874 were in large demand at 9Jl a9o. Ihe '.3O
q cent Treasury Noes sold at lOJl iO5i. and In
debtedness Certificates at par. State stocks were
active, especially Tennessee and Missouri ds, at
m advance of | to | y cent. When the call
reacled Railroad bonds, the bddings were very
animated, and nearly every description sold at an
advance. In shares there was general improve
ment but the buoyancy was not quite equal to that
Of Government securities. Pacific Mail was an
Reception to the general MARKET and fell rapidly to
lI2, afIerward recovering TO ll2l. Some realizing
sales are reported TO be the cause Of the decline.
The feature Of the ehare movement the attempt
of the bears to hammer Erie common stock, Of which
about 5 COO snares were thrown upon the market on
long sellers oplion. psrty was employed AS II
broker, whose sales it was supposed would be the
most damaging TO the stock; bat the stock was freely
taken at 3J3 39I seller co. ard the market after
ward went bigher. Central was strong at S9s s9l
Tie Preference shares # Erie advanced TO o. with
ou, bringing out much stock. TIE question of July
dividend is again mooted. Hudson River sold at
Az. again,t 43l Oh Saturday. Michigan Central im-
proved Il = cent. We hear semi-olicially that the
Midsummer dividend has been agreed upon, and
that the road is in perfect order, with floating
debt Illinois Central sold al G3l, an advance Of
y cent. The business Of this road has been uniavor
ably affected by local causes, mainly the cutting oil
of lie Southern business by the closing OF the Mlssis'
sippi River. This, however, will now soon he
remedied. Rock Ifland WAS very buoyant. and
touched &C, a further advance of . cent. Some
movement, it is rumoied, is going on in the
affairs of this company, calculated TO increase
he value Of tho stock. Toledo was among
the most active stocks Ii opened at
4Gi and sold up to A. improvement of ] v cent.
At the Second Board there WAS again All active mar
ket. with less resistance from the bears aud in most
Gu ses higher quotations were established Govern
ment Gs sold freely at 1863, and Treasury Notes at
the same price. Erie Old sod at 29i, and Preferred
at 67t further advance in both cases. Toledo was
also firm, aud sold At Al. Michigan Southern,
Guaranteed, advanced to 52I, but the common stock
was heavy. Rock leland was 66, firm. Pacific
Mail took another turn, and advanced to Ilil,
against ll2 at the morning board. After the regular
