WALL STREET, } SatuRDAY, Feb, 20—6 P. M. The recent suggestions in this column concern- Ging the probable firmness of the stock market, and a temporary change of front by speculators, @ound further confirmation to-day in geverally a vanced and stif prices, For three days steady @mprovement has thus been recorded. It ts not Matural to suppose that a movement in either @irection will ve unattended by drawbacks and weverses, It is contrary to the experience of the @treet and the manner in which stocks are manip- miated. But there ts something strangely eccen- feric in such an exnibition of strength as we have ad to-day, in the face of one of the weakest bank gtatements that has been publisned for a long ‘time. Usnally stocks nave been observed to Jweaken under induences of this character, and he exception to the rule has occurred at a time ‘when it might be least expected, and when, if @bhere was @ real desire to depress prices, the @ccasion would have been eagerly seized jor tue purpose.

ALTERED CERTIFICATES OF ERIE—AN INVESTI- GATION ORDERED. Quite a sensation was produced in Wall street yesterday morning by the following announces ment, which came over the instrument of the Gold and Stock Teiegraph Company:—‘‘Two cer- tiflcates of Erie have been discovered raised trom two shares to one hundred each, name of Tum- bridge & Co. Tnere are supposed to be four cer- tificates of this description.” A little later the above was corrected as follow! “The Erie cer- tificates are raised from two shares to two hun- dred each, instead of one hundred, as reported.’? The name oi Tumoridge & Co. ran like wildfire from Jip to lip. The firm are prominent dealers in what are termed “puts and calls,” although their oftice in the basement of the bullding at the cor- ner of Wall street and Broadway, bears the rather | ambitious announcement that they are bankers | and brokers, Immediately Tumbridge & Co. were waited upon by a representative of the HERALD, who saw a member of the firm (Mr. W. F, Hub- bell), Who very irankly gave @ statement in refer- ‘ence’ to their connection with the mat- | ter. According to this a man giving his name as M. §E.

The two shares nave been raised to 200 snares, and the trausfer was reiused yesterday at the Erie office, where the fraud was first dis- covered, Messrs. Duncan, Sherman & €o., the Erie finan- cial agents, were waited on, but they very cava- herly reiusea to be interviewed on the subject, and relerred the HERALD agent to Messrs. Le- rocque & Barlow, tne counsel of the railroad. The former gentleman was jound at his office in William street, and stated to the reporter ' that he had no information other than that already given. He acded that the object of the rogues who raised the certificate has been foiled, unless some bank in Boston has loaned money upon the stock. It appears that the rascals have been de- Jeated througo an oversight. Ali Erte certificates for a small bumber of shares are printed im blue ink, while the larger certificates are printed in Ted. The raised stock was detected, thereiore, immedtately. The Exchange will make a thorough fovestigation o1 the whoie matter; but it 1s sup- posed the same parties are at work in this busi- ness who have recently been detected in Boston in raising the certiMcates of Michigan Central stock.
