because the operations there are carried on with
out the assistance Of outside greenhorns, and
most Of the sales and purchases are made upon
what is termed . brokers market. Each, no
doubt, thinks himself very wise; talks oraeular-

'Old Drew is selling out his or Lockwood

sorts Of addendd and verbal fringes, until the
street becomes as lively as a bag Of feas and a
sudden advance, or a senseeSs panic, is imprO-
vised, by which several fortunes are rapidly
made TO change hands. In fact, all that is nee
essary TO be done by one Of the great specula-

stone is thrown in; the big Spectators chuck in
their stone, and the little ones begin to dance
around.
II the history of any one Of the recent move
ments in the New York stock market we're writ

point; as for insta ce, the Erie agony is kept
up by Drew over those rs, 900 shares he hap
pened TO hold. and which he held in terrorsm
over the broker for so long time Morris
Ketchum's name has lost ITS prestige. but in its
day it has. also, welded an immense influence
over the puppets.
The Ketchum swindle, having had its nine
days run, has lapsed into Lethe, leaving only a
few large scars upon perhap: half dozen mem
bers Of the financial body. No sympathy what
ever is expressed, or ielt, in behalf of Morris
Ketchum, ian Evening papers white wash to
the contrary Notwithstanding his selfish, gree
dy course having cost him long ago all real
friends. The street laughs at the two hank pres
idents who were so easily sold and gulled in the
matter of forged gold checks; and one Of these
sstute officials is said to have loaned over $500
900 upon the checks alone. without any other
collaterais OF course there will be small sal
in this last case. unless II can be taken out
Of Young Ketchum's hide. Mesnwbile the for

The Army AND NAVY JoURNAL-We are
glad to learn that this truly able and excel
lent journal will not close with the War. Its
editor, Captain Church, in recent leader,
states that his receipts from subscriptions
are now larger than ever, and that the re-
turn Of peace will not be allowed to dimin-
ish the vitality or interest of mis- sheet. As
an earnest Of this, the new volume opens
with dress Of new type, though the old
was still handsome, ana new features. includ-
ing records OF scientific invent ms and Con-
gressional Legislation, discussions Of the
problem Of Reconstruction, "reminiscences
OF the War. &c. &c, are to be added. This
with the discussions Of purely military mat
tiers for which military men will still look to
this journal, will, we doubt not. make it
more valuable than ever. And while it is
conducted with such ability, honesty and
tact, We shall wish success to the
