TUESDAY, Dec. 31—6 P. M, The market ruled quiet to-day, the rain storm putting a check to business in the comparatively few commodities which had been sought after during the preceding few days, so that commercial transactions were dwarfed to insignificant propor- tions. There was scarcely am exception to the general rule of dulness in commercial marts with whieh the old ycar expired ; but seldom has there been a more generally buoyant and firm tone to the merchandise markets at the close of the year than obtains at the current writing. Little business was done to-day, either om or off Change. Cotton was quict. Flour and wheat were quiet, but very strong. Corn and oats Were quiet. Whiskey irregular. Pork and lard were quiet. Freights were strong and freight room scarce, Petroleum sti nominal. Naval stores dull, Metals quiet, excepting for copper. East India goods neglected, but firmly held. Wool unusually quiet, but frm; and other markets not above mentioned were correspondingly quiet. AsHEs.—Receipts for the past three days, 26 packages. The market has been quigt, but steady, for pots, while pearls remained entirely nominal, We quote pots, $8 50. BUILDING MATERIALS.—There has been very little demand for brick geince our last, but prices have been nominally steady at previous figures. Lime ‘was in limited request, and also sieady, at $1 50for Rock- land common and $175 for do. lump. Cement was quiet and more or Icss nominal at $1 60 bbl. for Rosendale. Laths were moderately sought after at previous figures. Corves.—There has been but little business consum- mated in the city to-day, but from other ports a fair busi- } ness was reported. We mote sales of 4,000 bags Santos (resale) per Atoxandria, on private terms, and at Balti- more, 4,000 bags Rio, per Clifton, and 2,600 bags do, per Redwing, on private terms.

The year just passed out of existence will long be remembered by the real estate interest as having been one of the most eventful, as well as prosper- ous, in the history of New York city, Sioce this time twelve months ago the price of properiy on this island has steadily increased and, instead otf diminishing, is still further advancing in rates. The justice of the rise we have several times and on various occasions commented upon, and shall continue to keep a supervision of the real estate market and its fluctuations and note every detail! appertaining to its transactions, ‘To-day our State Legislature begins its regular session of 100 lawiul days, which, however, may be prolonged to last thirty days more and even yet longer. The enactments that this body will pass concerning this city must naturally bave a at al) bearing upon real estate in New What we mostly need, and that very badly, is a systematic and feasibie. oan of rapid transit on | both sides of Manhattan Island, but not on paper, bat carried into racticability within the shortest possible period after the granting of the charicr and under penalty of heavy damages. We have now no less than four different rapid transit schemes, three of which possess the Jesal authorization, one 1s. partially completed and tie other two are still in embryo. ‘The single track elevated road running from the Battery to Twenty-ninth strect, via Greenwich | street and Ninth avenue, is for the distance it | traverses all that can be desired, in point of specu | and accommodation, yet the owners are tardy In extending its usefulness to the promised terminus (Yonkers), either for the want of means or soine | Sener, caus but certainly not from a lack of patronage which it would receive if in operation 18 full length, The Gilbert Elevated Road hag been a promise poy future. The undertaking’ is so vast that long time was required to gather such a large amount of capital required to construct go huge a | thoroughfare. We learn, however, that the neces- sary funds have been obtained, and that the work COLO FFICE OF 7s CANADA “SOUTHERN RAILWAY | « of building this route will be pushed forward with | the utmost emergy. | Vanderbilt's underground railways have not | even as yet become the beginning of @bore.

Prepay, wan investi- gating committee will throw some light on the Faniese whether rapid transit isa public require- ment, and to be onic by the present owners of the charter, or if the company is to keep the “sheepskin” carefully stowed away in order to de- bar ‘others from Komi. this much-demanded re- quirement, The question arises—""Hag the public any rights which Commodore Vanderbilt and asso. ciates are compelled to respect 1” Another rapid transit. scheme is the “Tier Rail- road,’” said his enterprise has not as yet becn ‘here is no use in mentioning the same at time Rapid cranme iy absolutely as necessary to both sides of New York, cast and west, as is a title deed to a piece of landed property.
