The Furry In Wall Street.

From the Herald Of ThupdGy. .ry
In a few words, then, the ducks and
geese, lame or otherwise, and the specula.
tors generally had been operating very
extensively and beyond their actual means
in an extremity in stocks and gold, and
there was general disposition to what is
called an active. market. In view oi this
state Of things the shrewd speculstoS we
have named, and their allies, perhaps,
saw there was an opportunity of tripping
up the host Of small fry aud over-Cont,
dent operators, and bought up Erie stock
money and gold, SO that those who had
sales TO deliver were cornered. But the
singular circumstance Of the whole tiuan.
cial difficulty was that there were triple
corners operating one against the other,
and all at the same time creating string.
ency and embarrassment Drew had
bought Erie and made corner in that,
and when hc wanted the money to
carry out his object he found
that Gould and Smith had made
corner both in the money and
gold market, which compelled him to pay
dearly with one hand for the operations
he had made with tho other. The Ger.
man gold brokers and bankers, who had
large demand for gold and were short
of it, were placed in like dilemma.
Hence the embarrassment to those who
had engagements 10 fulfill in Erie stock
and the consequent effect upon other
stocks on one hand, and the tightening Of
the money market and extraordinary
high rate OF interest on the other. Il was
said that Drew, Gould and Smith were
endeavoring to make an arrangement
among themselves both to protect their
interests and control the financial situa.
ton. But the purchase Of three millions
Of bonds by the Secretary Of the Treasury
has given some ease and checked to some
extent their speculations. In case ot pro.
longed difficulty. Mr.. Boutwell, might go
further and sell gold, though nothing is
known yet Of such purpose. It is said
the cornering cliques are still actively at
work to control the stock and money
market. There appears to be less fear OF
their power, however, as the market was
easier at the close Of business yester day

spait Of founding that International
political solidity of the working
classes which all their efforts and
most Of the discussion have been Iii.
rected. They were also averse to the
transfer Of the General Council 10 Amer
ica. One Of the curious results Of the
meeting is the dispatch Of letter to the
three Emperors at Berlin, in which the
democratic conclave expresses It's hope
that the conference Of sovereigns will have
results favorable to durable maintenance
Of peace and the pacific solution Of all
social questions. -
