FRIDAY, Dec. q p. N.

FRIDAY, Dee 2S-PM.
The week on the stock Exchange Was broken by
the Intervention OF the Christmas holiday aud the
small total of transactions in stocks aggregatng 307
100 shares represents the business of i've days only
Notwithstanding the extreme dulne>s indicated
by the transactions, the market generally has made
an advance over the prices Of last Friday. For
the present spectators again ignoring the
facts which show the real merits Of the respective
stocks, and employing the force Of capital to lift
prices The movement, of course has only one OBJ
iect in view that of finding market for the further
sale of stocks. The Lake Shore report has dem0n-
strated that under the most favorable conditions
tbe road cannot he expected to do better than 10
turn per cent per anaum on IT'S stock instead oil
earning | per cent per month Yet the price OF
the stock has steadily rsen-the transactions for the
week covering nearly onc-half of the total for all
stock5-to 81. And now comes the report of the
Central aud Hudson for the year ended September
30, 1877, which acknowledges a deficiency, after
the payment OF dividends, OF 100000. We tre-
quently have heard that this property was saving
10 per cent a north. What the business has been
since that time Is indicated by the recent returns Of
The PENNSYLVANIA Railroad for the month Of Noyem-
Der, rs follows:

These facts added TO the no longer denied cutting
OF rates sufficiently indicate the nature Of q stock
market whose prices advance. The advance in the
general list was due more 10 n sympathetic action

although dividend of 3i2 per cent declared 81.
