Th> news from San Francisco to-day was indicative of considerable uneasiness, but not sufficient to war- rant a despatch that the Stock Exchange was closed, Which was received as early as eleven o'clock, or about three hours in point of time before that body meets. A special, dated at halt-past nine A. M., says:—‘*A pow- erful bear combination has been operating for several days past, and seoms to be gathering strength. It is comparatively quiet at this hour, but it is feared that Stocks will be much lower to-day, Tho Board is not open yet.” ‘A despatch at ten A. M. siys:—‘‘The market opened ‘Weak, with prices somewhat lower than last night.’” The diffrence in time between San Francisco and Now York is three bours and twenty minutes.

The mercantile situ- ation is in no considerable degree better than it has been for months past, even though there is any betterment. The comparative firmness with which many descriptions of mer- chandise have been’ held all through the protracted season of inactivity and depression has in many conspicuous cases ‘been superseded by a willingness to sell which nas besn too nearly allied to anxiety to deceive any one! while in some instanees there hus be: decided pressure to realize, even ut ® decided reduction from the previously quoted jon, This has led to business, though not unfrequently at a material suerifico on the part of owners. But the spring season far advanced 4 stocks of merchandise constantly augmenting there has seemed tobe no alternative but to seil ut the best attai prices. Thore is no disguising ‘the fact that there isa good deal of uneasiness among th mercantile community, and the élsposition to conform to the views of buyers {s becoming more general with every suc- ceeding day, It is apparent to all that in this way alone can merchandise be moved.

HELL GATS IMPROVEMENT. COMPLETION OF THE BORINGS—NO DATE FIXED FOR EXPLODING THE EIGHT THOU- SAND CHARGES. ‘The work which has so long been slowly approaching completion at Hell Gate ts ended at last, The 8,000 borings which have been made into the rock are, tor the moment, plugged with wood to prevent the ingress of the water from above. They merely await the charges which are to shiver to pieces this primeval ob- struction to the entrance of New York Harbor. The only work now goingonis the pumping outof the water which accumulates in the adits, and the com straction of a stretch of sea wallto protect the shore from the current which will sweep against it atter the explosion. This wall will be 150 fect long, 12 feet bigh and 8 fect thick, A heap of débris flanks it at either end, For some time past the various explosives used in submarine blasting have been tested, many of the various compounds of nitro-glycerine having been tried on Friday last. ‘hat which gives the greatest satisiac- tion is the gun cotton made at Stoncmarket, near Lon don, It Pe & comparatively new preparation to this | country, but has proved itself so superior to most | others that tt will probably be used inthe tinal blast, It will not, however, be placed in position until the last in order to avoid the action of the wi wee ft. = Tho Propriation already® mi ner le ficient to cover the expenses of "ee blasting, for which a ut thirty tons of the explosive will be needed. The nse of removing the débris alter the explosios have to be met by another appropriation. The popular mind has been filled with vague fear of the effects hikety to follow the blast, eral Newton, however, says that there is not the slightest reason for fear, m on the part of jiving on the river banks nearest the mine. The idea that the explosive charge will be fred in bulk is an erroncous one. There are about 8,000 small charges, not one of which will be larger than can be contained in a boring of three inehes diameter, tapering off gradually to two inches andahallt. Tho difference between the popular notion and the real tact is precisely the difference between the effect produced by the firing done during a battle and that which would be brought about by the simul- | taneous explosion of all the powder ased in said battle | af fired at once in a closed chamber; so people hay not the slightest cause for fear. explosion is not yet seitied, but it will not be until the end of July or the beginning of August. Many have supposed that the fireblast would take place a the Fourth of July; but General Newton does not bap oe competing for effect with the country at I fremorable d@y, and the small boy will have no 2 ofieal rival for fulminant honors in the newspapers of 6th, He may lose his hands in pieces and in pda AGAINST THE ELEVATED’ ROAD, Tho property owners along the line of Greenwich street and Ninth avenue, through which the Elevated The precise day of the | Railroad runs, who bave formed an organization in op- position to the extension of that railway, met at the Pacific Hotel last evening, The principal business of | the evening was the adoption of bylaws for their gov.
