change during the morning. hours to-day. At
/ one time the market had a very shakv ap-
pearance, and could have been easily turned
/ into a panic. As usual Of late, Wizards was

/ sell these shares has not been equaled since
/ the recent bear movement was inaugurated.

party, who. by their hammcring, have under
