2 Faroar, Nov. 20-6 PW. ‘There has been a visible improvement in the tone of ‘on the Stock Exchange to-day, and the expecta- fa goneral that next wook will witness a stronger market for thf speculative railway shares, The number ‘Of operators among the outside public, both in the city th the country, {3 very large, and with rare these aro all buyers, Tho bears already how great timidity about increasing their contracts, and Pho aggregate “short” interest is probably greater than has been atany time since last spring. There jaa dgai of iatont strength among the bulla, who with- the réoent shock and held their stocks, but those ‘who joined in the panic and sold ata heavy sacrii ‘when the lowest prices werg touched, are crippled, and ‘afford very Uttle real support to the speculation for a rise. It was oncaytially’ ‘4 buli panic, and to some extent ‘@ grand scoop game oi the part 6f {he brokers to pocket @he margins of thoir customers, If, {a cther words, the ‘Dulis had stood firm, there would nave bém: NO panic; ‘but not a fow of the bull houses produced it by giving to thotr fears, and selling out recklessly, in tntiel of lower prices, A broker has, like a cat, nine Ives, where oitside operators have one} and therefore ‘Phe latter are tho chief ones to suffer whenever s equal (Passes over the market, It is this knowledge which has «given birth to so many new stock houses in Wall street “within the last four years, and which is constantly adding ‘to their number. If a broker fails, he, roughly speaking, ~@wes overybody, and generally pays nobody ; but an out- ‘side operator who is unsuccesstul, almost always loses “his money to the full oxtent of his losses, Hence the @dvantage of the brokor over the custamer, the one in ‘most instances receiving more in commissions than the Other does im profits, There are many honorable o: » @eptions among brokers, but in still more numerous in- @tances they are not to be trusted. We write ‘this aga warning to that portion of the public which geeks sudden wealth by taking ‘a flyer” in Wall street, and who walk as unsuspectingly ‘into a broker's parlor as the fly at the invitation of the -@pider reforred to in the well known nursery legend. Money is in abundant supply at six per cent to the Btock Exchange, with exceptions at five on government gecurities, The discount line is inactive at 6a7 per ont, Currency is slowly returning from the West.

At the one o'clock sessions the market devoloped a tendency towards in- roasing firmness.

Bent scale of reduction being excessive. The volume of Joga! tonder notes should be reduced go slowly as to fender the process almost imperceptible, and the reduc- Gon of the national debt should be even moro gradual, as \t is clearly unfair to the prosent generation for the government to saddle it with the burdens which should be shared by posterity. The dutios of the Secretary of the Creasury in this and other reapects should be made more specific, so that the one man power over the Pational finances may be reduced to as low a point as is Compatible with the duo performance of the functions of the Treasury, This would lospire confidence and put fan end to suspicions damaging to the public credit, The Logal touder notes should be reduced on a declining scale ommenctng with not more than twenty. millions noxt Your, und decreasing at tho rate of at least Ave millions @ Fear until the amount of annual reduction reaches five . Bailliont, The sinking fund provided by act of Congress Bhould be pat in force, and the reduction of the national debt limited to about twenty millions per annum, the @urpius revenue beyond that being devoted to current @xpend tures, and the taxes reduced correspondingly.
