was Pacific Mail, which sold up to 37t and down to

closed to-day. Tho sales of the week. as will be

strength in the face of impOrtatiOns of those securi
ties from Europe. The advance in currency valua-
ton here since last Saturday has rangcdfrom to II
per cent and averaged between aud per cent for
the various issues The business in Southern State
bonds has been unimpOrtant and mainly limited to
Tennessee, Virginia and North Carolina issues,
though we hear of small sale of Florida Skies at 80

strong for those which regarded as undoubtedly
