M. ‘The stock market opened heavy this morning, and @losed heavier. The change which took place yester- dey was 60 sudden that the bulls were all taken aback, ‘and they became very much alarmed. The !mpression among the bulls was that the long looked for change had taken place, and that the advance would be per- manent and rapid; and to have such a revolution take place in their feelings in such a short time was unplea- sant enough. At the first board United States 6's, 1867, fell off 4 per cent; Erie Bonds, \ ; Harlem, '; ; Canton Company, % ; Reading Railroad, 1; Farmers’ Loan, 34. Purchasers of Reading Railroad have met with quite s reverse within the past day or two. When the improvement of yesterday appeared, holders with- @rew their stock, with the hope that higher prices would be realized, and for a time it was scarce; but the bears were not frightened, and kept out of the market, and the result is, that since, any quantity ofstock has been brought out, and the quotations have fallen off about two per cent. This shows how sensitive all these worthless stocks are, and it is a matter ofastonishment to us how any one can have temerity enough to touch them. ‘These are the securities that certain parties in Wal, street are striving to get upa speculative movement in for the purpose of relieving themselves of the load they now have on their own shoulders. ‘The Hartford Bank, of Hartford, Washington county New York, has suspended payment. Its bills are un- der protest, and the concern is literally defunct. The Comptroller will probably proceed at once to wind it wp. The bills are secured by public stocks, and its is. sues will, doubtless, be redeemed in full. ‘The receipts at the office of the Assistant Treasurer of this port, to-day, amounted to $212,000; payments $65,673 46; advices, $70,000. Balance, $2,003,268 81’ ‘The amount paid for duties at the Custom House of this port, for the past four days, is about $900,000, and there has been greater activity in entering goods than we have ever noticed before, in the same time, ‘The Wolfborough Bank, of New Hampshire, by which the public were swindled to the amount of about a hundred thousand dollars, came within a hair’s breadth of being revived recently, anda fresh batch of its worth- Jess issues put in circulation—that is, provided they eould find people verdant enough to receive them. It ‘was got up originally by some sharpers from this city, who managed to dispose of much of its stock, at $100 a share, to the farmers at Wolfborough and vicinity, and many of them, in its failure, lost the hard earnings ef years of toil. During the past winter, some members of that class of financiers whose homes ought to be in the State prison, set themselves to work to revive the vil- Janous concern, and an agent went to Wolfborough, and hunted up some of the stockholders, to whom he offered $10 per share for their stock. They readily accepted his offer, thinking the man must be deranged, as they could not conceive of what value it could be to him.— He then commenced making other arrangements, such as purchasing or hiring the old bank building, &c., after which he left for New York to arrange matters here connected with the concern, but before he could return ‘was taken sick and died. Two others of the ssme wor- thy fraternity, then went to New Hampshire, and push- ed things ahead rapidly. They hired the old bank, had it painted, and put in fine order; the bills were already printed, signed and cut apart—when, all of a sudden, they were destined to realize a proof of the old adage, that “there is many a slip between the cup and lip.”"— Some member of the Legislature, then in session, hay- ing got wind of what was going om, brought in a bill Tepealing the charter of the “Wolfborough Bank,’ which passed, and at once put a stop to any further pre- eeedings of the rogues, who returned home, probably in i humor with Yankees in general, and New Hampohire Yankees in particular. Still, notwithstanding all this ‘we should not be surprised to see ttempt made even now, to put ferth these worthless rags, and cau- tion the public to be on their guard. ‘The reported receipts of the Norwich and Worcester Railroad company for the month of July, 1849, smount- e4 to $19,586 15, ageinst $18,564.16 for the same month im 1848, showing an increase this year of $1,120 99. The receipts of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, for the month of July, were :—From freight, $57,054 52; from passengers, $42,098 01; total, $100,051 53; which is an increase over the receipts of July, 1848, of $1,652 63. On the main stem there was an increase of $7,114 99; but a decrease on the Washington branch of $5,462 40. ‘The annexed statement exhibits the condition of cer- tain banks in New Orleans, for the month of July: according to returns made to the Board of Currency :— Baxxs or New Onteans, Jour, 1849.
