There was a good demand for the better class of investment securities, but they are so sparingly offered that itis difficult to effect purchases; but the speculative sliares while they are.

firmly held at the highest points reached, were but little inquired after, the anxiety to hear from the Army of the Potomac appearing to be the cause of the inactivity. In New. Y'ork, on the contrary, the speculative public appears to have, gone mad the general list of fancies are up from 2 to 5 per and the transactions, according to report, very large. The sales here sum up 27,500 loans, and 6372 shares. Governments of all kinds were very firm.

The Coupon 6's, of 1861, were quoted up to and the 7-30 notes at 107. Several lots of the latter sold early in the day at 106J. Pennsylvania 5's sold at 101 City 6's, new, closed at TllJ'gll2, several small lots selling at 111J; the old City 6's at 107, the latter an advance of North Pennsylvania 6'sat92, an advance of 1 Schuylkill Navigation 66, 1882, at 85, an advance of and Camdeu and Amboy 6's, 1675, at 103J, same as at last report. In Railroad shares the transactions were equally limited, and the quotations show very little change, but the tendency was decidedly upwards. Elmira sold at S3, an advance of Camden and Amboy at 170 an advance of Catawiea Preferred at 23J North Pennsylvania at 11 Catawissa, common, at 7 all the same as at laa retort.

Reading closed at sles of 1SO0 sh ires. Pennsylvania was a fraction lower, selling at t5i. In Passenger Railways the sales were, Thirteenth and Fifteenth at S3; Fifth and Sixth at Tenth and Eleventh at 40 and Race and Vine latter a decline of J. The quotations, generally, were unchanged. There were no sales of Bank stocks and no changes in quotations.

In Canal stocks the sales were, Schuylkill Navigation Preferred at a decline of and the common at 8 an advance of Morris at 71, no change Lehigh Scrip at 45, a decline of J. The fluctuations of the latter are still owing to the purchase and sale3 on account of those who do or do not believe the conversion into stock will be decided at the meeting to be held to-morrow, and it prows weak or strong in the market as the orders of either party are, for the time, most numerous. Among the miscellaneous Stocks the sales were, New Creek at 1, and Hazleton at 56 both unchanged. Big Mountain was quoted at 4S4 for Green Mountain 3 'was bid. Money continues to grow more plenty on call.

Among first-class parties it can hardly be quoted over 4 cent. The Sub-treasury has received the lull amount of deposits, authorized by law at 5 8100,000,000, yet still the obligations of the Government are being issued at the rate of millions daily, and are pouring into the cities of the West as so much new capital. Under such a state of affairs, we can hardly report anything but lower rates, no matter what may be the news from the army. The Directors of the Bank of Northern Liberties have declared a dividend of 5 and au extra dividend of 2 payable on the Sth inst. PHILADELPHIA STOCK EXCHAKGE SALES, Mav 4.

mith, Cavalry, incinnati, Ohio. it." looser, 2d Cavalry, Buffalo, S. Y. lieimental Recruiting Service. All the new regiments, with the exception of the Sixth Cavalry and the Eighteenth and Infantry, have recruiting parties of their own out.

The Sixth Cavalry is supplied trom Cariisle Barracks, and the two regiments of infantry specified are full, having- been rpcedily recruited to their maximum strength by Major-General Rosecraxs, in whose Department they are serving, and under whom, at Mur-troesboro', they did such brilliant service. quickty did the General fill tbe vacancies in the rank and hlo of these regiments that it was at one time reported that all the regulars would be sent to him to be reorganized. The head-quarters of the new regiments, unless they happen to be in the field, are also regimental depots, whither recruits are sent for instruction before being despatched into active service. The colonel of each reciment is, ex-omcio, superintendent of the recruiting service lor bis own resiment, but as all the colonels of the new regular army, except Colonel Shephekd, of the Fifteenth Infantry, are general officers of volunteers, the duty of superintending recruiting devolves upon officers of lower rank. The head-quarters of all the regular regiments are given below.

As will be seen, many of the headquarters are "in the field," and are consequently, liable to be removed from one place to another, according to the movements of the corps or divisions to nj 1T X- which the reginents are auacuea.
