MONEY MARKET. Tuvespay, March 3—6 P. M. There was a perfect stampede in Cumberland Coal «took today. Nearly four thousand shares were sold, and more than double that quantity offered at the close without finding purchasers. Present prices will bring out large lotsa of hypothecated stock, the mar- gin having been entirely used up. It is the general Impression that the stock will run down to between thirty and forty per cent, within which extremes it may experience the usual fluctuations of the fancies in the hands of speculators. Phoenix Coal stock fell off to-day considerably, with large cash sales at the decline. The only fancy coal stock on the list which was merely sustained, and no more, was New Creek. Nicaragua Transit opened and closed weak. The transactions were quite large—principally for cash. Erie Railroad, Harlem, Hudson River, and other lead- ing stocks were pretty active, but all were depress- ed in market value. Quotations current at the first board to-day, compared with those ruling at the close yesterday, show a decline in Cumberland of 3jper cent; Phoenix, 1j; Morris Canal, 3; New Jersey Zinc, 4; Montgomery Mining, j; Nicaragua Transit, 13; Stonington, j; Erie Railroad, 4; Harlem, §; Norwich and Worcester, }; New Haven Railroad, }. In pub. Ue stocks and railroad bonds a limited amount of bu- gineas was transacted. Bank stocks occasionally change hands in small lots, principally for perma- nent investment. There is a feeling among stock speculators that indicates greater depression in all the leading fancies. The strong operators are work- ing for a depreciation, and holders generally depend almost entirely upon facilities for hypothecating. This creates at times a great deal of embarrassment, and when loans are called in, pretty sharp shinning haa to be practised to prevent the securities from coming upon the market. By making good the margin on stocks hypothecated, only temporary re- lief is afforded. A few days may suffice to reduce it again; and we have frequently known instances, where, after making the margin good three or four times, the stock has finally been sold at a great sacri- fice. Holders of stock who have purchased largely on facilities furnished by loans, are in great trouble | and tribulation. As the money market tightens, their difficulties and embarrassments will increase. {t is much better to make a small loss than a great one; and where holders depend upon borrowed capi- tal to carry stocks, the sooner they sell the better for their pockets and their peace of mind. We look for bard times among stock speculators for a rise’ Am active demand for money exists, and it is likely to continue. The commercial classes are in want of more money than they are likely to getfrom the banks, and it will be difficult to hypothecate fancy stocks, except on very high rates of interest, and even in that way to a limited extent. The movements of trade have become so much extended, that the actual active capital of the country will no more than suffice to keep the wheels of commerce in motion; and it is our impression that the demand for money for legitimate commercial purposes will increase rather than diminish. The recepts at the office of the Assistant Treasurer of the port, to-day, amounted to $742,150; payments $15,507 46—balance $6,087,907 40.

THE PUBLIC.—THE IMPORTANCE OF A GOOD hand to all classes.—As it is conceded by all whe we taken lessons of the maersignes, or have witnessed the progress of his pup , that Goldsmith's tion, and the styles of penmanship he te near perfection s¢ human skill has yet attained, only necessary to present in its full force the im, of ‘a clear, 8: and expeditious hand te all classes, to ge the attention and enlist the t= cal exertions of every bad writer in this leading and indis- pensable braneh of useful education. To the Fbay man Just entering upom his business noviciate, whether as clerk or salesman or bookkeeper, the first and most essential requisite is a thorough command of the pen. He ma; have all the rules of arithmetic at his ios ea ends, be capable of applying them with the rapidity of thought —he may understand the principles of bookkeeping, in all its forma, intimately and thoroughly; but if his dexter- ous fingers cannot readily trace in clear, bold, and beauti- ful characters the entries he has to make in the journal and ledger—if he cannot copy a letter, make out an in- voice, fill up a bill of exchange, or draw up any business document or statement, ina good morchant-Like hand, and with rapidity and ease, his services in the store or counting house will be of comparatively little i 0; and, with his skill in figures and talents for its tails, he must ever hold a subordinate position. Before he cam make one forward step, he must becomea good penman. To the professional man, whether his vocation be the law, the press, the pulpit, or any branch of science, literature, or art, the pen of a ready writer is a great desideratum. The time that is saved by a swift and accomplished penman in the expression of his ideas, as contrasted with thetime lost by a bungler, must, in the course of a lifetime, be worth thousands of dollars to any one in this ener go-ahead community; while the popcetaniaes of profit- 4) BT as it seoma able employment ofen to a skilful rapher are as @ thousand 10 one compared with the chanses of slow and awkward penman.

Nota few of the opposite sex look upon a lady’s band the key to her general attainments and domestic habits, and if she writes ill, set her downas careless in to the cultivation of her talents, indo- lent in her disposition, and but poorly qualified to at- tend with the nergy to household affairs. In short, any lady or gent! n who, in these days of cheap instruction, to acquire a practical and complete command of the instrument which is the te! ph of business, is justly looked thenght and the maingpring of upon by thinking people as bebind the age, and unlikely to overtake it. These are facts, indisputable, unde- niable; and when it is known, as it is almost uni that the author of this eircular can, in a short series of private lessons, or by instruction in class, reform and remodel the most inveterately bad hand—evolving order, freedom, symmetry, and regularity, out of the most con- strained and contorted hand—it is not too much to aay, that those who neglect the opportunity are utter lind to their own interest. The charges aro ‘moderate, the risk none, the result invariable, and the opinions of the press, letters from eminent public men, and the united admissions of thousands of pupils, are the guarantees of competency and suecess offered bj OLIVER B.
