Til asanasa. Jfgw Toe November 19. At no time during tbe past two weeks, although within that tints Wall street has been tbe scene of many thrilling events, has tbe stock market passed through such suddsn changes as to day. Before the Exchange opened the brokers were in receipt of quotations from Lon don. showing an exceptionally heavy decline in Americana, and not only this, bnt th.

ca bite reported a most uneasy feeling at tbat Center, with rumors of impending failures there. to a prrsrssiox. According to later dispatches, was due largely to tb. alleged refusal of the Union Bank of London to grant accommodations to brokers until the next settlement, on tbe Zitb to similar action by other in stitutions. It appears tbat tbe Bank of En gland subsequently used its influence toward changing tb.

determination of tb. officials of th. outaid. banks, and in that way res- eued tbe market from a condition of panic New York operators at tb. start bad ears for nothing els.

than th. talk about tbe strained situation abroad and the sensational rumors alfcctlng tbe credit of firms here. From all that was said it might have been supposed that at least a balf dozen firms were certain to announce their failure to il ar. TRS HIOBLT SCBVOrS STATE Ot tbe markat may be readily inferred from the movement of prices daring tbe first half fcour of business. There was a rvgular stampede to sell at the start, and Quotations opened 1 to JH points below tbe final fi cares of yesterday.

A further ehrlnkage of HOI per cent, took plao almost immediately. and Jersey Central touched 90. against 044 last nisbt: Louisville and Nashville tii against 69: Northern Paciflo preferred Ki mi nut kock Island 63J4. against C6: St. Paul 44 K.

against 40s: Missouri Pacific 56. staiast 9. and Lake Shore 103. against V4si A number of weak accounts bad to be closed out. and many traders acted as though tbey felt Judgment day bad arrived.

Just when itsecmedtas if tbe bottom was going to drop out of the market tbere came a bvsh or no two obpubs That was simply irresistible Prices crept cp slowly but surely, and after delivery hour bad been safety passed the shorts were punished unmercifully. Not only had the events In London failed to confirm th. I gloomy forebodings of operators, bnt the any ner passea witnout a single lanure on "Wall street. In addition to all this the money market was free from disturbance. and an unusual scarcity of stocks was devel oped in the loan crowds Tbe shorts had to "Pay as high as 1 per cent, per diem for the use of Illinois Central and Burlington and Cluincr.

and per cent. for. Lake Shore. New York Central. Now Jersey Central Louisville and NashviU and other stocks.

These shares were most exasperating. and started a lively movement to cover. Jersey Central sold op ten points, up to par, and ZJo per cent, rally ensuediln tbe remainder of tbe list. tb. high, medium and low-priced hares all precipitating freely in the im provement.

Despite the shorn changes, tbe sales for the day were 302.000 shares. thb acrroCT rtismost Of Jay Gould entered into tba calculations of traders to-day. Ilia ooup in Pacific Mail and the various reports in circulation as to his relations toward other properties have started an active discussion as to his future intentions. It is said that Mr. Gould has en listed tb.

support of the Kockaf oilers in his schewe to obtain control ef tbe Transcontinental lines. Tbe panic has made the taskof out the problem of a grand com bination between the Western roads more simple than if the latter were enjoying high credit. In tbat event jthe Presidents, under cover of a seeming prosperity, would bave been in a position to defy well-directed ef forts to bring abonta settlement. There is good gmnud for saying that as soon as finan cal aOairs right themselves Mr. Gould and bis following will be ready to announce Sums STASTMKO CHAKOCS the railroad map west of tbe Mississippi.

Among the statements current to-day was oe to tbeefiuet tbat a prominent railroad anan in anticipation of a convulsion in the stock market has bad locked up for some weeks fifteen millions of money in the vaults of a bafa Deposit Company, with the View of buying properties when they bad to be Slaughtered by their owners, and another, that this aam. capitalist made an oner of 4 fur aoo.OOO shares of Atchison on Saturday in the heicbt of the disturbance following tbe announcement of Baring Brothers tem porary embarrassment.

will be determined by the progress ot the liquidations more than by any other course, and these in turn will depend larsely upon tb supply ot available funds here and in London. The banks on this side seem to tx availing themselves more freely ot cleax-ina house certificates, and to-day rates on coll were decidedly easier, ranging from 8 to Per and doting at the latter figure. Only certain kinds of collaterals are ac cepted, however, and because of this brokers. In order to fortify their position, will take advantage of all rallies and reduce their holdings.

The crowd swelled to 1.000 or more, and though each one as he stepped np received bis money, they became so riotous tbat a squad of police had to be called to preserve order. President Quintard. at tbe close of the day. said tbat about 100.000 had been paid out. Mr.

General Nelson A Miles, commanding the Department of the Missouri, this evening had before him many telegrams from the far North-west, a well as official communications from tbe War De partment at Washington. General Miles bas upon his countenance a pleasan smile tor all who call, but those who know him best can at once discern an expression of anxiety and worry.

Although the Gen eral does not let words express that which bis countenance portrays. "What is the situation this evening. Gen eral, np in tbe Indian couutry. where the restlessness of tb. tribes of -red men is creating such interest all over tbe country 7" Tbe General at once looked up from his desk and replied: 'The same turbulent spirit among the Indiana is manifested at Rosebnd, Fine Ridge and th.

At tbe same tifhe Lieutenant-Colonel Smith will reach the Rosebud Agency witb three companies of cavslry and three companies of infantry. "In my opinion." con tinned General Miles, these forces will be sufficient to protect the lives and public property at these agencies and control the Indians there.

the Indians do not commit any serious overt act before the arrival of the troops or immediately upon tbe arrival of this force. 1 ant of the opinion that thb arPBABJtycs or rng TBOort 'Will have a most quieting effect. 1 bave received information, that night before last American Hone, who is one-of the Sioux tribe, had a narrow escape front assaui nation from the turbulent Indians at the Pine Ridge This Indian is a prominent Sioux Chief, and a friend to the -United States Government.

hostile and disaSected spirit of the Indians can I attribute this attempt to murder American Horse. They are seemingly angry because American Horse opposes the tuibalent spirit manifested by the Indians, and stren uously opposed such actions. Asked whether he would make another Journey to the North-west General Miles re plied thst he did not at the present time think he would, but be was ready to proceed thither at a moment's notice soouia it be come necessary.

Fasts. November 19. General Seliv.rskofT. a Russian agent in France, died to-dar from tbe streets of a bullet-wound in his head. flic ted in a manner which is at present a mystery.

Confl reports are current as to bow he was shot. One report says that a strancer called upon him yesterday at bis residence at the Hotel Bade, and that half an hour after his visitor bad departed General Seliverskoff was found br his valet lying un conscious in his room, shot in the head. OTHEB BSPOBTS State be -General received no visitors. No weapon was found, and the nrnlture in the room was not disarranged. Tbe police attach some suspicion to tbe valet, and be is carefully watched.

Th. police bave become convinced that tbe valet bad nothing to do with the shooting ot bis master aad hare therefore withdrawn their watch oa him. The valet was much attached to General Se liverskoff.

The evidence clearly points to sn assassination. A ctxw Hss been obtained which will probsbly lead to the detection of the murderer. A few days ago M. M. Bernoff.

th owner of the Franco- Prussian rooms on Rue Rorale. engaged as aa employe a Raasian Pols named Podlesky. He waa intrusted by bis employers with an invitation to a ball which be was to deliver to General Selivrrskofl. This enabled him to obtain access in tbe General's room. Pod leaky lias absconded.

Tee further the authorities inquire into tbe case the more tbe evidence tends to pro ve tbat tbe murder wss committed by a Nihil ist, and that it waa an act of political venge ance. thb roucg aarrrvB Tbat tbe murd.r was committed while Gen eral Seliverskoff was answering the note of invitation wbicb was delivered to him by Podlesky. and that Podlesky left the hotel unobserved. The report of the revolver was drowned br the noise of tbe traffic in tb. street.

One of the Nihilists arrested this afternoon Etas been released. Podlesky was in Paris at the time of tie Nihilist arrests in reoruary last, out ne escapea to oeiicia. Th. police have visited tbe lodgings ot all the Russians wb- were implicated in tbe February affair, and have discovered that Podlesky was one of tbem.

The magnitude of tbe opposition victory became so great on the Thursday following the election that th. Democrats became alarmed.

With tb. extinction of slavery there was little further necessity for protest oa tba part of the States against tbe same social and industrial civilization.
