Pocket and Pen Knives, iful assortment of the above can be seen at The stock ma: ket continues unusually quiet. Quota- tions improved a fraction to-day, but there is so little do- tng among the fancies that it is difficult to tell what the actual state ofthe market is, At the first board Farmers’ Loan went up % percent; Harlem }4; Norwich and Wor- cester 4; Reading RR 3s; Canton 1. street are waiting the receipt of intelligence from some quarter—from Europe or from Mexico. Should we receive favorable advices from the East or from the South, prices for all kinds of stocks will advance, without much doubt, several per cent; should, on the contrary, the news be unfavorable, we do not anticipate mubh decline, as quo- tations rule at present so very low] that holders will not part with them, and we believe they are generally so held that they can be kept out of the market.

The report of the committee of the whole, on the Ge- neral Insurance Bill was called up, anda conversa- tion took place upon the extent of the responsibility im- posed on stockholders, by what had been adopted as the personal liability clause of the bill. Some Senators be- ing of opinion that the main ground of personal liability had been abandoned, Mr. Talcott, as chairman of the Bank Committee stated, that the liability imposed by the bill was, that the directors were liable to the full amount of their property for all policies given after the insolvency of the company. If this is not sufficient, then the stockholders are liable for the amount of their stock and once the amount besides ; besides this, they are not allowed to make dividends except under certain regulations. ‘The bill was laid over for further consideration. The bill to abolish the office of county superintendents of common schools, was lost. The bill, by consent, was referred for amendment. Assxmaty.
