The general activity of the market In other departments, the advance In exchange, the decline in exports, the engagements for the shipment of specie by Wednesday's steamer to the amount of $500,ooo, the unfavorable reports concerning the cotton crop and consequent loss to the country, and above all, the Insignificant amount of gold held in the Treasury after the payment ol accrued Interest?all these circumstances combined to strengthen the position of the bulls and confirm the prediction that, whether the present price be artificial or not, there are no natural causes and no governmental means to prevent the price (Tom ascending, between this time and the end of the year, to any reasonable figure that niaj be fixed In the process of speculators.

TUB STOCK MARKET. rt Is a long time since the Stock Exchange has been the Bcene of such lively business as was transacted to-day, and if the signs are to bo trusted we have entered upon the "Summer campaign," so long and so anxiously anticipated. Outside orders, on the one band, are giving substantial encouragement, while the tone of the market ltseir, as Illustrated by the improvement In a score of securities, shows that master spirits have again entered the arena and are patting at work Influences calculated to give new and brighter color to the situation. Nor are these Influences entirely artificial in character. Stocks are in empathy with the natural growth of the country. A railroad may be loaded with debt, yet each year witnesses its wealth enhanced, its usefulness enlarged and Its final purpose nearer successful culmination than before. A STECTLATIVa VALU1 attaches to almost every security that is quoted? a value that ebbs and flows according to the freak of the hour; but at ths bottom there Is usually something substantial, and in the end, when some fortuitous combination of events develops real strength, thousands are astonished that they did not discover and make use of the fact in time. The movement in New York Central, in Rock Island, In Lake Shore, In Wabash, and the past history of a number of stocks once powerlnl, yet now holding bat a minii mam of tbe confidence of the community, exemi pUfy the thought and show that It U prudent to be prepared at any moment for renewed activity generated from reserved lorces, adaptive opportunities and enterprising generalship. TUB VOLUME OP BUSINESS TO-DAT was large, with more than usual strength along the line, prices advancing during the morning from X to 3 per cent, although followed by some decline. Erie was exceptionally weak, owing, perhaps, to the non-declaration of a dividend, uncertainty incident to the election or new directors and the London quotation. The stock opened at 02% and suffered a pounding down to 60%, with final recovery to 61%. N0BTHWK8T COMMON , invited more than usual interest, and gave token of an activity that has not attached to the stock ^ for several months. In fact, at a late hour? too late to produce any effect on the market? it was whispered that a very large block of the stock had changed hands and gone nnder control 01 the friends of the road, aud that a very few days r would probably witness Northwestern back again in its old place among the lively speculative securities of the market. The opening figure to-day was * 71, lrom which there was a gradual recession to 09V In view of favorable Information concern* lug the Income and condition of the road its friends predict for it a brighter future. Western Union sold at 84%, Improved at the first * board to 85*, but later succumbed to the general $ depressing influence, and closed at 84%. Pacific j Mail advanced lrom 30% to 37%, ana was well susl tatned at the higher prices, though showing a dej cllne at the end to 36%, 87, 37%. St. Paul rose from r- 61% to 52%, losing H per cent at the close. New i, York Central opened at 103J4, advanced to 104 bat receded and closed at 10354. Lake Shore began work at Mia, went down for a jnornen t to 95J4, I. but recovered and closed at 90. Union Pacific sold at 2814 a 2654, a2? a Ti\; Toledo and Wabash at I 60\ a ?o a TO Si a 70 st a 70*4 a 7014. Hock Island de. veloped considerable activity, the fluctuations j being between lion and 11114, with a final decline 0 to llOlt; Hannibal and St. Josepfi sold between 0 38*4 and 40>4; Ohio and Mississippi was steady bee tween 3014 ? 3o*-4: C., C.
