I''RIDAT, December 18, 1868.
Railroad shares are firm, especially New
York Central, which advanced to '132, un
der the rumor of a large stock dividend,
and lu an attempt to corner the stook,
winch waa7largely oversold at the recent
advance to 134 N; the rest of the stock list
is quiet but firm, and every decline is fol
lowed up by a corresponding advaco.
In locaf stocks there are more offers to
sell than'buyers are willing to accept, and
from now to- January some shifting will
have to be resorted to iu order to meet ma-
Wring obligations.
Express shares are firmly held, and a
considerable advance is expected after Jan•
uary settlements.

—The Chicago corner in corn has culmi
nated, and resulted in repudiation by about
two•thirds ofthe "shorts." The number of
bushels repudiated was abont.loo,ooo, t t he .
difference was about $25,000. The people
naturally inquire how much these specu
lations and attempted. "corners" are at
tributable to the abundance and deprecia
tion of the' currency, which, through the
influence of 'banks, centre in the hands of
reckless and unprincipled men, who will
not permit even the necessaries of life,
breadstuffs and fuel; to . escape their
avarice and thirst for gain.

There is really but little that is new or
impo:tant to be said Yabout the markets in
a general way. What we said in regard to.
Graft and flour yesterday,'still holds good
to-day—the market for both being rather
offish, both east and west, with indications
of a still further decline. The impression
seems to he gaining ground that prices are.
not 'likely to go much higher, and, as a
cons3quence, holders are not so stiff, and
mom inclined to realize. Money is tight,
and is likely to continue 83 until after the
first of the year, and, as a consequence, col
lections are hard to make.
