Tne stock market was again active and strong to and ty, and the tone of dealings was more pro nounced than at any time during the present rise, especially in Vanderbilts and Grangers, together with a few specialties. The reaction toward the close of yesterday and the prospect of trouble over the labor demonstrations were mode the basis for an attack at the opening this morning by the bears and sold-out Lulls who are looking for a reaction off sufficient magni tude to enable tnem to get iu again, with some prospect of another profit on the long side. Ths fact that to-day is holiday in London and thero was no market there, whicn might act as sustaining influence upon ours, was also an in ducement to try the hammering process, but advices from the other side showed that every thing was passing off without disturbance of any kind, aud sellers of yesterday came in as buyers, and the rally was so sudden and sharp that there was no time to recoup at anything like the figures of theopening. The demonstra tion against values gave the marset an unset tled appearance at the opening, and most of the active shares were slightly lower than last even ing but before the trading had been in progress five’ minutes the market had developed a strong tone that was unmistakable, and tne bears soon withdrew. News from the west upon the rail road Situation was all of an encouraging nature, aud Grangers early became leaders in the up ward movement, Rock Island and St. Paul lead ing off followed by Atchison, Northwestern, and Chicago Gas. There were rumors of many kinds, mostly of a bearish tenor, but that sort o’ tal k is low at a discount, and no attention is paid to them whatever.

The Sun's cotton review says; “Futures were again very unsettled. The opening wai lower in response to a very material decline at Liverpool, together with some improvement in the crop prospect. There was a quick recovery on silver rumors from Washington, but as these did not prove very tangible, prices again fell off under reports of rioting iu Paris. Some im provement followed when the spot market was reported, and in tiie last hour no inconsiderable buoyancy aud activity was noticed on rumors from Washington indicating the early passage of the silver bill. Cotton on spot was l-!6c dearer and much more active for home con sumption.” Galveston, May I.—Cotton nominal; mid dling 114 c; net r'ce.pt, 351 bales, gross o 51; sales 22 bales; stock 3,657 bales; exports, coast wise 759 bales.
