NEW YORK, August 12-The Evening
Eiegr0m'S special from London, at
half.past three o'clock to-day, says,
"Generslly speaking, the market to-day
is much brighter than it has been dur
ing the week. The tendency to decline
in values, the fatness that arose from
failures aud rumOTed failures have passed
awsy. The announcement of the sus-
pension Of Thompson, in the iron trade,
had only a temporary effect. Consols
are quoted at ninety-fou and one-haIf,
an advance ODe-quarteT; and is regard
ed as an indication OF strong and much
activity, The fail in Pennsylvania rail-
road securities continues. The quoting
price to-day for Pennsylvania Is forty
five and one fourth, eX-dividend; g de-
cline Of three-fourth5 since yesterday
and one and One-fourth since Tuesday.
The continuance of disquiecing rUmors
in the Pennsylvania railroad affairs tend
to this movement. Philadelphia and
Reading, which yesterday fell three per
cent, to-day advanced One-balf, and is
now quiet at fi.ty. There has been a
slight advance in five-twepties Of one
fourth per cent. With this exception
the market in government securities
continues firm.

GUS attack Of Secretary Delano on
Walker, clerk Of the board Of Indian
commissioners. He says he believes that
said libel was concOcted and published
by Cowen, assistant secretary Of the in-
terror, with the cordial approval of De-
IanO. Welsh charges that these attacks
were made on Walker because he ex-
posed frauds which il was the duty Of
the interior department to check. Welsh
then charges DelsnO with making viii
fully false reports to the President in ref
erence to the amount OF stock subscribed
to the Northern Pacific railroad, and
threatens to publish further statements,
Of stilI more Objectionable acts, and con-
cludes: " Your protection OF General
