FINANcIAL ASD COMMERCIAL.

WEpNEsD ~, sept. 25-P. M.-There has
been large business noted at the stock Ex-
change to-day, though the speculative excite
ment was confined to only a few stocks, and a
majority Of the heretofore active list was quiet
and unattractye. The Erie corner, for the day
at least, was Of comparative inslgnincance, and
the report in this mornings columns that Mr.
Drew was yesterday aheayy seller, which gained
credence as the day advanced, and the fact that
abundant shares were on the way from London
to find a market, all together combined to
lessen the speculation in this stock and restrict
its influence upon the remainder Of the list. .
The greatest difference between cash and reg,I-
lar Erie stock At any time was l D cent, as
against ~ Y cent on Monday, and at an early
hour Of the day Pacific Mail assumed the chief
prominence, with heavier transactions than for
a long time recorded. Reference was this morn-
lns made to a proposition To consolidate this
stock with Panama railroad, and tho shorts
who are just now becoming considerably
alarmed 10y any rumors even Of Corners COM
menced AZ once to cover amid much excite
ment, while TIE stock rose from 6s9 to ~,
an advance from IlOlq to III. The trans
actions In Pacific Mail were OF great magnitude,
and footed up lu4,HUU shares dealt In, while tho
entire volume Of business for the day At the
Exchange wns only 26i5,6. The sales of Pan
anna we're only 1000 shares. The couae of the
general market was strong In the Forming;
amer which came heavy bear raid In the after
noon, but partial rally succeeded, though prices
were again weak and ieyeTish at the close. Del
aware, lackawanna and Western and also New
Jersey Central were weak and lower, because of
a quarrel for some time slumboring between
these two corporations, who were SO Tar sup
posed to be consolidated as to stock
receipts. A Joint committee, II appears,
had ,decid a that no dividend could bs
docla<, bit the New Jersey Central
Directors, notwithstanding this fact, lately
announced a dividend to their stock kholders,
which action il Is claimed was unfair to the Della
ware and Lackawana management. As the quar-
rel Ia of no special interest To any one except
some unfortunate Lackawbna stOCkholder, we
