If this application shall be successful he will commence an Ope- ‘7a season carly in the spring and bring out some new ar- ete. Mr Maretzek le, withoutany doubt, the most po- pular of operatic managers. His benefit last night drew the Soest house of the season, and the beneticiary was @vorwhelmed with tokens of the public's admiration, ‘The performance included the whole of the ‘Trovatore’’ ‘and selections from the “‘Semiramide.”’ All the artists were warmly received, and the sudience was as entbusi- astic as it always ie for the first or the last night of an Ope- rm season. Our people carry out the doctrine, ‘Welcome the coming, speed the parting guest,”’ to a nicety. Moretzek, with La Grange, Brignoll, Amodio, Mia Phillipe aad the whole company, will sail to-morrow in the Cabawba, for Havana, where they will have «six ‘Weeks’ season at the Tacon theatre. Maretzok will give them a good company, an excellent prima donna, « good contralto, a superb tenor, and @ baritone who gives the highest promise, and three operas new to Havana— “L/Ptolle du Nord,’”’ ‘La Traviata’? and the ‘Trovatore.’’ I \s to be hoped that the Havanese will duly appreciate ‘theco laxurtes, and that the director will come back with a cart load of dowbloons.

Strong efforts have been mace io day vo oreate a better and an improved feeling on the Stock Exchange The news from Earope was considered favorab'e for the ex- periments, and continuous bids were constantly made on tbir.y and on sixty dave’ time, in order to produce an impression, and, if possible, to gencrate a little upward movement. A change of % per cent was effected ou the stocks of the New,York Central andthe Erie; but the re- mainder of the rtock list exbibited (ho true condition of the market, and the day closed with diminished anima- tion. Those who have carefully examined the sigus of the times for the past few monihe have discovered that the foreign news has produced no effect on thespesulative impulses of the country, Good and bad news bas had a like reception amongst the stock jobbers, Stocks have visen any how and under aay circumstances; and the de- velopements of the last few days prove that now the ten- dency must be towaras decline, no mstter how consois may be quoted, or what may be the condition of the grain or cotton markets in Europe. The late large advance of tut 10 per cent bas been the result of local causes. A heavy bank expansion, and a large short interest bave produced the advance. Oom) cations to corner haye been ihe principal means used. It is clearly evident that the banks must again contract their loana, and it is also evident that the business of the street bas been diminished fully two-thirds by the failure of Messrs. Little & Co, Cornering operations are there- fore out of the question until seme new concern springs up ebie end willing to incur the rick of large sales and extensive bypotbecations. The downward tendency of prices may therefore be considered the natural effect of the new order of things, without regard to good or bad news from tae Old World. ‘The failure of Mr. Little each day developes some new fact which throws fresh light upom Wall street stock job- bing. His large transactious were indispensible to the cornering of many of the railroad stocks. 80 long as he continued to deal jn Harlero, Hodson River, Norwich and Worcester, Stonington, Cumberland and other articles of is line character they maintained high prices, and could be freely sold. As he deserted them they have fallen, and are now the incontestible evidences of the soundness of his opinions. They are unsaleable except at very low rates. We look to see like reeultg from similar causes in oiher thinge., Again, Mr. Littie’s operations and misplaced il- berality supplied business to oue-third of the stock board. Now they will seek {n vain fora place to makea time bargain. It is also clearly apparent that houses reputed strong and wealthy, preferred to make time Dargains with Mr. Little, ratber than to buy for cash and hypothesate with banks and individuals—all going to show either the absence of cspital amongst sush houses or sa unwilling- Dese to be in the position of borrowers, when they would be compelied to meet such demands upon them at one day’s notice. ‘he prevailing opiaion is that the Wall street houses have Bot the capital or the credit safficient to sustain an amount of loans necessary to conduct such a trade as Mr. Little’s facilities enabled them to command. Another interesting truth made manifest by Mr. Little’s troubles is, that his resources had been acearately mea- sured, and that ® regular system bad been organized to plunder his eatablishment to the full exient of his means, While offering to contract with bim, they knew he must ulttmately be placed at their mercy. The conspirators were evidently fully posted as to the extent of his busi- ness, and at the same time epjoyed the command of the stock ledgers of the companies tn the stocks of which they were dealing. Evidence enough exists of their dally labors and the nightly conferences to prove the extent of their plans, their caiculations, and their ultimate designs. ‘His prompt suspension defeated their machinations, and thus enabled him to place all upon an equal footing—those who had dealt with him in good faith and,upoa judgment, as well as thore who had encouraged him to make large transactions for the purpose of appropriating all he could manoge to pay. Some of these things are in the course of examination, and we eball take plessure in showing them ‘up, accompnied witb all the evidences of their enormity. ‘There were few ceiling at the Board this morning at our quotations, Milwaukie aod Mississippi Ratiroaa fell of \¢ per cent; Reading, 34; Michigan Southern, 1; Cleveland and Toledo, %. New York Central advanced % per cent; Erie, 4; LaCrosse and Milwsukie, \; Chicago and Rock Island, }{; Illinols Central, »; Galena and Chicago, {. The sales, selier’s option, were quite large, and !t looks very much as though holders of stocks were sustaining prices until they bad made coatracts tor delivery to the extent of their supplies, whom they would Jet the market fall from ite own weight. If hey can manege t) do so the decine wil! fall upon parties who may be induce | to purchase at current prices.

Its now reported thatthe January dividead of ‘this company will be five per cent in cash. frie closed heavy at 612(; Michigam Southern at 88; Cleveland and Toledo at 13%; Reading at 8574, upon some. unfavggabie reports from Philadelphia. The tteawehip Persia, from this port for Liverpool to- day, carried out $962,926 80 im specie. The Arrago, from this port for Southampton aad Havre on Saturday, ‘Will take out a large amount of specie. ? It bas been reported that the proposition of Messrs. Little & Co. to settle their stock contracts has been ac- cepted. It is notso., Mr. Little proposed to pay in full, ‘but the terms of payment have not transpired. Mesers. Wesley & Kowaleky, the propristore of the 7imes, are the largest creditors, and they do not appear diepoggd to ecttie, Their ciaims amount to about $160,000, and aati! they agree to come in the same as other creditors no ar- rangement can be made. It appears that Werey & Kowaleky purchased stocks t© « large amount of Mesars. Little & Co , at low prices, om account of the New York Central Rairoad clique of speculators and others, but by some private operation between the two houses Wesley & Kowalaky became responsible to their princi- pals to the full amount of the differences in market value, The responsibilities they assumed in this way make their lows by Mr. Little's failure very large. The resuit of the affair is that the cornerers got cornered; hence follows the abure of Mr. Little and the whole clase of bear opera- tors, in the columns of the Times. ‘The Asmstant Treasurer reports this week a8 follows: — Monday $189,046 89 wise oe $11,860,408 07 Toesday....... 183,748 104) 11,840,225 88 Wednesday... 148,796 67 214,266 96 11,774,685 14 The warrants entered at the Treasury Department, Wasbington, on the 6th and Sth inst., were aa follows: — Total... pereesves <.9280,818 66 The receipta of the Lebigh Valley Railroad for the month of October wore— Pasrengers, Freight ..... ‘The earnings of the Galena and Ohicago Miami Railroad DOCTOR... ...csececererecesetenrereeses BU6,809 19 The directors of the Ogdensburg Railroad Oompary have iesued their annual report.

It is equal to full interest on the first mortgage, and about two per Cent on those of the second class. The road is now ma- paged by trustees of the second mortgage. There are three different applications now before tho Bupreme Court for receiver of the property, &:, Of the Accessory Transit Company of Nicaragua. There jg one application by Vanderbilt, as mortgagee, for a spe- cial receiver, to sell the steamers aad pay his claims. ‘There is also an application on the part of Foster, « judg- ment creditor, for a general receiver, to sell all the pro- perty and pay ail the creditors of the company; and there is the application of Hamilton, a stockholder, for a general receiver and judgment of dissolution of the com- pany, Bow pending betore the General Term of Sapreme Court, on appeal from decision of Judge Cierke. The case of Vanderbilt against the Trapeit Company, and aiso the case of Foster against the same, are set down for hoaring Ddefore Judge Davies on Saturday morning. The impres sion which one would get from the couciusion of Judge Clerke’s opinion, in the case of Hamilton vs. The Transit Company, is that the pisintiff was defeated; but on read ing with more attention, it will be readily perceived tha the points of law for which the plaintiff contended were all decided in his favor; and the only point oa whieh the opinion turns is the ivexpediency of applying the princi. ples of law, allowed to be correct, to the case «. pre. sent time, The question of the right of municipal corporations to subscribe to railroad stock came up in Charleston, iast ‘week, before Judge O’Neal!l, on a motion for arule to show cause why writ of quo warranto should not issue against the city of Charleston, which bad at various tines: subseribed to the stook of different companies within and without the State. The Judge sustained the city in all Points; desided that she had @ right to subscribe and to asses the taxpayers for the same; and he likewise de- cided that the act under which the subscriptions was made, Was conatitutional, He therefore dismissed the motion.
