STOCKS DULL AND STRONG.
The stock market was unsettled lower aud dull
In the forenoon, but gradually developed strength
and closed with firm tone and general improve
ment in prices. The "bears by an early dash on
Pacific Mail depressed that stock to TX, but the
'bulls" getting the reinforcement Of capital above
referred to- ran the price up to 1871. The rest Of
the market nuctuated In close sympathy with these
changes, but in less active degree. Indeed, the
outsiders were disposed to Storm q ring"
and let the two parties fight out the bat
tie In Pacific unmolested. Panama advanced to
1Ah Erie opened weak and fell Off to AZ ~ but re-
covered and advanced to 49,. The stock was still
scarce enough to lend fiat, but the big "c0rner"
was conspicuous by its disappearance. The closing
prices were geneoally the highest Of the day, Pa
cinc Mail being supported by the pool to the last
moment. The previous defeat of the "bear'
cliques in their operations against the Vanderbilt
party was the result of the lending of sterling for
the carrying Of stocks, that party having first class
credit and getting the accommodation quite
readily, the Pacific Mail pool having ingratiated
themselves into like favor with foreign capitalists
with the result witnessed to-day.
