Government Bonds Quiet, Investment Securities Without Feature, and Money Easy at 3 and 4 Per Cent. Wall Strkkt, ) Friday, Feb. 11?6 P. M. I The stock markot to-day, for the sake of similo, was ts much like a Third aveuue car on an early trip down town as anything wc can liken It to. One seat was jammed with bears, the other scat jammed with bulls, and the doubling ones bung on to the straps in the middle. Thai is to Bay, the bull and bear interest was about equally divided as to an opinion of the market, while a crowd of petty dealers halted between two opinions, and, without rhyme or reason, was ready to drop Into tho first vacant seat offering. But the bulls and bears were settled for the wnolc trip and the strappists swayed to and fro, with never a chance to better their condition, and the journey finished as It had commenced. So did the stock market, and there was never a clianco lor an outsider to gain a dollar over and above (awful commissions paid. Traders who had to pay this toll found, as a general rale, tnat brokers weft plus (heir commission, while they wero minus a corresponding loss There was not an eighth euch way to spare, with anything to the good left to tho operator. In a word, except to regular Board members, who pay no commission, there was no chance of gain to the outsider. The course of the market was confined to a fractional fluctuation, and the interest in the same roiuced to quite as Darrow bounds. Opening strong under the impulse of lost night's 3rm quotations the list at first showod every evidence of an upward turn, but the slrongth was apparently spasmodic, lor soon prices began to hositate and then to droop nuder considerable realizations. Afterward tho necessity of some one putting his ihoulder to the wheel became apparent, and the power was applied accordingly with the result of restoring the choorful feeling of the morning and closing up the market at about the opening and best prices of tho day. Northwest common and preferred showod the most decided advance and continued it steadily on to the end, while Its side partner, St. Paul, as if It were satisfied with the rise of the past tow days, gracefully yieiaoa mo pat ana vu oontonioa to uoiu us own at <lrm and steady prices to tho end. Among the other speculative shares Pacific Mail exhibited tbo only noticeable change, which, though fractional, pointed to higher IIgurus. The prominent coal stocks, which, by vole of investors, are removed from the usual speculative lists, have manifested a marked decline both In sharcB and bonds these last few days, which has excltod remark. It is probable that this weakness arises from tho fact that tho well-known combination or association of the anthracite coal companies Is now in convention in tho city of ltiiladelphia The five powerful corporations which constitute this congress have met together to lay out a programme for the next season, which is compassed by the opening and close of navigation for the year 1876. They havo been obliged to recognize the falling off in their trade in tho matter of iron furnaces out ol blast and mills and manufactories closed, and they are not insensible to the growing competition of tho bituminous coal fields ol Pennsylvania. Realizing the condition of things, these gentlemen, representatives of the companies, are putting their long heads together, ana tho impression prevails that for the coming six months "black diamonds" will bs purchasable at least 20 per cent below contract prices of last year. Beyond this little stir in coal matters nothing has occurred to-day to invite special oomment, and Stock Exchange mailers may he dismissed with the general remark that the market closod strong and with a generally confident fooling.

The following is froui Mr. Emmet Wells' circular of February II :? There has been a temporary check to toe export movement caused by the advance quoted last week Shippers contend there in no money iu the business when the pries goes abovu 16 cent" here, and we are iuclioed to think they are about right, for there has been no ndvauce lately in the price of American bops in London, coiiHequeiiily every cent added on to the price here affects the profits of the shipper. The advance to 17c. in this market seems t" hare been band entirely noo the growing soared i ot tine hop* Should this unco result in a pormaut nt < h<-> k to the shipning trade, bolder* might deem it expedient to moderate their views a little, if for no other purpose than to keep the export ball moving, tor tliis movement really is the nly life to the trade. An advance in the BAM M American hops iu London would be felt here very suddenly and very perceptibly, but until such advance takes place we think holders will we the policy of keeping the price at a point where shipper* tan at leaat get their money back. Large profit* arc not crav ed, but the shipper feels that he at least earn* bin commission, since he alone has to take all the chances.
