ACTIVITY AND REACTION.

WALL STREET,
FRIDAY, March 26, 1875 I
This being holiday Wall street is comparatively
silent ana deserted. Perhaps 1t is best that 1t
should be SO, for the brain forces of the busy
workers have been under tremendous pressure
during the week and needed rest. Not since the
stormy days of September, 1875 has there been
seen anything like the excitement that has at
tended the Inauguration and progress thus far OF
the bull campaign, and 1t may continue under va
rying conditions for weeks to come 1t is a well
come change, however, from the dulness and apa-
thy which prevailed until the present month
While there is uncertainty because of the sudden
ness OF the advance the general feeling is one Of
buoyancy, that Ieslsts even the depressing indu-
ences OF reactions. Indeed, the latter regarded
rs signs OF
THE STRONG UNDERGONE OF THE MARKET,
inasmuch as they have been followed In SO many
instances by still higher prices than before. and to
the shrewd operator afford opportunities for pront
In both directions. 1t is OF course impossible
to say that the improvement in any stock has
reached its climax. On the contrary, 1t may be
fairly inferred. from the manner in which one Sc
curity after another has been taken up and made
active, that the purposes Of the leading specula-
tors not yet July developed, and that for many
days to come the market will continue to show
the effect OF sharp and sudden change. Nor is 1t
probable that the owners OF what are known
as the cheaper stocks will permit them to
remain exceptionally weak. while others are daily
becoming stronger. Hence at any moment
movement may commence in quarter least
pected, and fresh impetus be given to the entire
business OF the street. AS matter OF convenience,
and for the purpose Of reference, we republish the
closing prices OF yesterday. Gold closed at 116,
government bonds sympathlzing strongly with its
hrmness.

There is a settled conviction IN the minds Of all
to-nIgh: that the ice g0rges in this vicinity Will
break up before morning. All the afternoon a
warm south WIND has been blowing and rain has
descended. Tonight the latter settled into q
steady Iall, with rills or water running along the
streets. AL merchants who reside on the west
side made arrangements this afternoon to remain
over until the expected trouble ispassed. The
very severe colo weather TINS week has formed
ice on the river five inches thick. People have
crossed safely over all the week until this even
ing. The water is rising very last, and it is ex-
pected that the new Ice Will break up TO- night.
The excitement is again alive and the worst
fears are entertained now that RAIN has set in.

The opportunity Afforded our citizens by the
continued cold weather OF visiting the gorges has
increased the ears OF disastrous issue. and the
people are more terribly ANXIOUS now than on the

which looked like slush when they were first seen
