Capital Recovering Confidence.

capital Recovering Confidence.
The weekly financial letter of Henry Clews
& Co. (Aug. 10y says: "Those looking for q re-
action in the Stock Market must have been
quite disappointed at it course during the past
week; for, in spite of dull periods, prices have
displayed sire myth and resistance to declines
surprising even to the average bull operator,
and crushing out all appearances of life in bear
ranks. The causes to which this extraordinary
frmness OF the market are to be attributed have
been SO frequently foreshadowed in these adj
vices that 1t is superfuous to repeat more than
larry among great capitalists, and the strenuous
efforts between railroad managers towards
harmony, including the negotiations already or
influences in bringing about this change Money
is excessively abundant everywhere; q remark
loan recently placed in London, for which sub
scrtptions to the amount of 81 zoo, OOO, 900
were received. No better evidence could be
found to show that capital is recovering con-
hdence and again seeking new fields Of invest
ment; and hencefOrth the opportunities for
such may be expected to multiply"
