SToCKs-Railways opened at about
last evenings prices, and steadily adj
vauced on the more active stocks, until
the first regular board, when prices
eliminated, and subseq quently declined.
The decline was checked at the second
board, and there was general recove-
ry, and though the market in the z. NJ,
was active and buOyant, the highest
quotations Ofthe day were not sustain
ed. At the close the market WAS un-
settled. Express shares were active
and strong, stimulated by Mr.. Fargo's
card. Adams was higher on reports OF
an early dividend. RumOrs are also
current that the Erie party are buying
to get control of the Company, and
ing to retain control, and tnat the Com
pany could not Issue any more stock,
and were buying three million shares
to satisfy the American Company,
which is to return 10 the Adams Conn
pany the various lines surrendered in
the forming of the late combination.
