SOUTHERN SECURITIES
were dull from the beginning to tho end OF the
week, there being lew transactions and little
change OF price. the news from Virginia is said
to be favorable In relation to the pending Tax BILL
while in Louisiana preparations are being made to
carry out the Funding law under which b0ndh0ld-
ers may receive sixty per cent Of their old bonds
in new bonds. 1t remains to be seen, however,
whether the tremendous overflow OF the Mlssis-
sippi just reported as covering 10000 square
miles Of the State viii not materially
affect the financial situation by entaing further
Indebtedness In Florida we observe that the rate
OF taxation for the present year has been fixed by
the Legislature aJ mills for state purposes, 3
mills for interest on the per cent gold bonds Is
sued in 1873 and sinking fund, ! mill for school
purposes and y mills TO pay interest on the cur
rency bonds issued in 1871. The entire State tax
will not exceed 81 % on 500 OF property. The
total appropriations for the present year are only
100000, about $50, 900 less than last year.
THE NOTABLE EVENTS OF THE WEEK
have occurred in the stock market, where in con-
sequence Of the uncertainty attaching to the effect
. of the Senate bill in the event OF its becoming
law, ana the disappointment OF those who seem to
have held speculative securities In anticipation of
higher prices, there was both . depressed and
unsettled feeling. The lowest quotations of
the week were made on Friday, when
the decline ranged from 1H to 6H per
cent. Pacific Mail being a chief sufferer because
OF unfavorable reports from Washington concern
ing the government subsidy granted to that line.
The stock went or from AK to AZ, but subsequently
recovered to AK and at the close sold at 4SA. In
sympathy with an Improvement in London, Erie
advanced from 35h to 3s1S, but closed at s74.
The Forthcoming statement of the President Of the
company Is looked for with much interest on &C.
count OF its probable effect upon this and the ior-
eign market. The principal transactions Of the
week. besides those above quoted, were in West
ern Union, Lake Shore, New York Central, Union
Pacific Wabash, G., C. and ]. G., Northwest com.
mon and Rock Island Ali of these stocks were
subjected to such rapid fluctuations that the best

ally, with considerable degree OF activity in GER
tain commodities. There was fairly active move
ment for oreadstufs and the sales for the foreign
markets were considerable and at steadily advanc.
ing prices, with lew lots for immediate delivery
and to arrive next month. The more active demand
for breadstuffs is traceabe directly to the buoy
ancy of the loreirn markets and the advance
OF cereals abroad. In dry goods trade
was still slow and unsatisfactory, while the
hardware business was much smaller than during
the preceding week. Corn was active all through
the week anu prices current at the close OF the
week showed marked advance, compared with this
day last week. Oats also In good request during

The same influences prevailed In the gold

perhaps operating In q different manner. The
