FINANCE AND COMMERCE.
Orrica or Tna Kvaamai Tatanaipfi, I
Friday, Movoiuuar ia. (
The Block Market ha been dull for some days,
under the sensation rumors in New York In rela
tion to Government loans and army now, and
although tho further fall In share! Is checked, tho
market Is apatbellc The public are quietly
watching tbe turn for tbe rise, which will shorily
set in, and speculation awuko to vigorous action.
We shall, without donbt, havo our winter's rise
in stocks, and we look for one of the most excit
ing period on 'Change that has been wlmcs ed
since tho breaking out of the Rebellion. TI10
accumulation of large b.ance of money In flian
chil centres, the almost certain cessation of ar.ny
movements a winter sets in, and the absence of
other business than that of a speculative cb ir ic
ter, combine to foreshadow the usual furor in
stocks, which always follows such a sta.e of
affairs.
The bears have, besides, under boi?iis rumor,
hammered the better clisi of dividend-paying
shnre down far below their real value, aud the
rebound will be as gro.it as it will lie su l len
and rapid. It is tbo fashion, in Near York, to
have periodical fits of clatiuu and depression;
and for ten days past all hands have been ope
rating for the fall, and have so oversold the mar
ket that slock i now much scarcer than money
In the street. Indeed, cash certificate for do
livery of most of the railway shares have not
been presented when due, but begiui oil', frjm
day to day, bus been tho order.
This state of ailair Is unnatural, and cannot
lort. It is the sure forerunner of a chauge ; uud
as the 4ow JiJt holders refuao to loud, wo shall
have sharp buyiug on the first scaro, aud the
wbolo crowd of bears In Wall, Willi mi, and
lirond streets will rush insanely Into tbo market
ok r.urcliaset-H. and perform their usual feats of
"ground and lofty tumbling," in order to got in
their short sales.
In our own market, the principal fancy, Reading,
holds firmly. The Now York bears have ham
mi red away at it to no purpose, and tint stock
which was tib when gold was 2-59 and Erie 100,
is still G8 when gold is 220 and Erie 05; showing
o tbe shallowest stock oporator the porrauncnt
character and real value of the ibares, ae no real
owner is induced, by any numbor or variety of
canard; to ecll out iu a fright or with the hope of
buying at lower figures. Tbe near approacu 01 a
20 per cent, dividend i! powerful reason for
faith, and with tbe eaormoui Business ui mo iv
there are no temptation! to "iwap uorsei ;" in
other words, the holder! of Reading are eauinea
with thoir purchase!, ud will not ieU In order to
Invest elsewhere.
The OU stock!, In eonetucnce 01 n mcrcaseu
flow of oil from the well of leveral or the cotn
pauici, are in groat demand, and "all lorti and
condition! of men" flock te the exchange with
their order! to buy. Indeed tbil lort of !pecul
tion U not confined to men, for women who have
saved np a few hundred! are ai aailoui to "Uy
their luck" a the most Inveterate gambler, and
have all a particular "fancy" which they wUb. to
laveat In at once, for fear that no oil stock will
for tale Trmor. VTUb tho chMacWriiUo
fervor of the eex, they are Impatient of delayY
and rsre nothing for the price, 10 that Clay etui
beeomc, nt once, tbe hapnyowners of the oovotad
ihrc. We fenr that many of them will awake
from their dclnslobi to find that they have madei
very permanent Investments j that oil stock! arw '
very tnacberous a well a very slippery aaTilrs
and are very dangcrons thing! to fix their aAVc
tions upon. In oil stocks, as In lotteries, we all
hear of the lucky man who draws a prlae, but
the thousand and one deluded mortals who fritter
away their means of living in a continued and
forlorn chase of the blind goddess, never have)
the honor cf favorable mention In tbe manager;'
advertisements.
It is s'nted by gen'lemcn who have visited the)
oil region that millions of dollars are being ex
fen, led In experiments; that derrick Hand 13
thick through that country that they look like '
forest of masts;" and that tbouiands of arigurf '
are tormenting the bowels of mother earth In
vain learcb after her secret!. Many of these ad
venturers w ill grow rich, butavait army will
come borne sick and di-heartened, and will leaver '
their derricks standing as mementoes of thelt '
folly, and monuments to mark tbe graves of boa
drcds of thousand of greenbacks. The shrewd,
unscrupulous men, however, who waste no tlmej
in boring, but hoist their derricks on tlx Block: '
Fixchange, and sell their certificates while tha
fever is at its height, are, probably, making mora ,
out of oil than tbe legitimate aud hanest ex
plorers. (Iovcrnment bond continue very firm, witlt
sales of fj-'.'tls to notice at lOloMOO, whk-h Ji aa
advance; and Gs of lHfll at 110; coaponi osT,

38 for preferred ; 130 for Morris Canal preferred I
14'j for Susquehanna Canal; and 3)4 tor Delft-'
