When the demand for any commodity sinks below a certain point, prices fail to obey a law, and are just about what they happen to be. It is only under a certain degree of tension that the proportion between supply and demand determines price with any accuracy. At New York money to the brokers ranges from 3 to 5 per cent. according to terms and collaterals offered, more generally at the smaller figure. In many instances,, during the week ; short loans have been made as low as one per cent. on approved se curity. Business paper has to pay more owing to the " ticklishness of things," rather than to any present or prospective demand for funds, The market is likelier to grow flabbier all through the summer months, and even the traditional stringency in October to "move the crops" will hardly occur in the face of the heavy disbursements and light receipts for the three months intervening, which are sure to liberate tke greater part of the $40,000,000 of currency now hold by the Treasury. Gold It is risen within the week, notwithstanding the prospect of the disbursement by Government of 831,110,000 for the July interest, and $8,000,000 on the principal of the debt. The excess of imports over exports has become so decided as steadily to draw down the supply both in the banks cud in the sub-treasury. The total imports at New York for the week have been $5,013,079, against $4,259,310 of the week before; imports of dry goods for the week $1,206,766, against $1,047,219 of the week be fore, and against $925,69 5 for the same week last year. The 's'aipments of specie for the week have reached $2,967,321, making a total since January 1 of $13,656,582, against half that sum last year. This excessive and almost unprejudiced drain of specie need not injuriously affect our monetary affairs, in our present state of chronic suspension ; but it looks badly for our commer cial relations. The United States is eminently a producer of the precious metals, but hardly at that rate. This is not all, however. If the loss of the six months about to close "squared up" our accounts with Europe, it might do; but the New York World of the 15th inst. estimates the amount at present duo to Euro?e, including its share of the coupons and the 8,000,000 of principal, at $21,680,000, Which would leave less than $17,000,000 of the July inte rest to remain in the country to meet the constantly in creasing demand for imports and gold duties. There will then be, by the World's figuring, only $42,000,000 of gold in the Treasury, against $70,000,000 (deducting gold cer tificate) on the let of June. The New York Times, on the other hand, stigmatizes the World's articles as in the inte rest of the "bulls," and designed to carry gold up to 145 and to secure a harvest to holders. It declares that the July payments will leave $61,000,000 in the Treasury, and that the balances said to be due abroad for interest and principal in July, and foreign merchandise sold, would be mostly left here for investment in United States Stocks, or for temporary employment as long es the market scarcity of gold continued. Moreover, it declares that the propor tion of the July disbursements which "the organs of the gold room" assert is to go abroad, "is an exaggeration by full one-half." The question is an interesting one, because it will vitally affect the whole body of our imports. Some of the allegations of the Time 3 are well supported, but no amount of figuring will do away with the fact of lessening balances, rapidly increasing exports, and prices rising under the prospect of heavy disbursements. The effects may not be experienced to the effect predicted by th World, bat there is every reason to anticipate a stiff gold market and an advancing premium, carrying along with it the whole line of governments. The following are the quotations of Exchange: bankers' sixty days bills on Eng land, 110 to 1151 ; at three (hp, 1101 to 1101; commer cial bills, 1091 to 1091 ; bankers' bills on Paris, long, 5.15 to 5.121 ; short sight, 5.114 to 5.10 ; Hamburg, 36 to 391-. I The market for tlovernments continues strong, and t l the exportable bonds particularly are in request. The Five-Twenties of 1862 are higher, and likely to be still better. The New Five-Twenties of 1862 and the United States Six per Cant. Currency Bonds issued to the Pacific railroads, were called for the first time on Wednesday at the Now York Board. The former were quoted at 1094 to 109 k, ex-coupons, and the latter 1024 to 103 and interest. The New York Sun of Wednesday says :—" It is doubtless the intention of Secretary M'Culloch to buy up the Five- Twenties of 1862 as soon as the Seven -Thirty Notes shall have been retired, and it will be remembered that upon the passage by Congress of the Act legalizing the issue of the early Five-Twenties an annual reservation by the Secretary of the Treasury of 1 per cent. interest in gold is authorized by the eventual absorption of this bond." The Treasury has already began to pay in gold the prin cipal of the United States Mexican Loan of 1846-8, with an abatement of interest from now to the Ist of July, when the bonds fall due. T he general stock market has been considerably ne glected in the interest attending the rise of gold and the strengthening of the Government Bonds. Railways have been but in moderate request at Now York, with prices generally firm, and in two or three cases higher. B 3ading and the North-West Stocks have been particularly active. The transfer-books of the Chicago and North-Western closed on 'Wednesday for the Ten per Cant. Scrip, to be divided on both the common and the preferred stock. Before the close of the day an injunction (of course) was announced, but the brokers had so far lost their respect for that time-honoured p roce d ure that they stood rather highoi after than before. Th ere seem s to be no doubt that the injunction will b e spee dil y di ss olved, as the ground it stands on aro manif es tl y i nsu fficient. Rock Island con tinues to feel the i m p u l se o f it s friendly adjustment, and is slowl y rising. Now York Bank Stocks are in re quest. Two of them have already declared semi-annual dividends of eight per cent., paya ble July 1, which shows either pretty good banki ng , or else that the provisions of the National Banking Act are fully as liberal as the public interest demands. The Stockholder says: " The number 'of fire insurance companies declaring dividends in January an d July is over 60, with capital stock ranging from $150,000 to $1,0 00 , 000 ea ch, and pay ing dividends from 7 to 20 per cent. per annum. P ar th e larger part of the companies pay either 10 or 12 per cent. per annum. The amount of the city and Brooklyn Fire Insurance Capital Stook is about $28,000,000, the semi annual dividend amounting to some $ 1,600,000, of which more than three-fourths is disbursed in Jul y ." T he fall in Virginia Sixes, owing to the failure of the State to pro vide for the July interest, has been checked, and the bonds aro again rising, under the prevailing impression that whether the interest is paid promptly this time or not, the whole line of the Middle-State Stocks cannot fail, with the happy accomplishment of reconstruction, to be of good property. The total of the State Debt of Virginia is $44,000,000 ; but this is represented by interests is rail roads amounting to $17,563,299, and $10,400,000 in the James River and Kanawha Canal, making a total of $27,963,299, and if West Virginia assume ona-third of the whole debt as her share, it will leave lase than $30,000,000 as the debt proper of Virginia, nearly two-thirds of it representing railroad and canal interests. Speaking of Southern railroads, it is noticeable that they appear well, notwith standing a gen t s h i e .a i l r e t m h b ia a g rra t s o sm b e i nt d s, oi a n n g d t v h s e 7 beggary in which the war left them. The Georgia line; particularly, are making dividends out of their ea rn i ngs, w hi c h i n di ca t e something of a change in their condition since Sherman's great march. The superabundant capital of the Notch will begin to flow freely in that direction just as soon as real and permanent "peace" peace" is established. There are railroads in Georgia which are capable of ea rni ng a g reat deal more money to the mile than any road in Massachu setts or New York. The whole border state bond list continues active under the prospect of reconstruction, and North Carolinas and Virginias are in particular request. Tennessee sixes are 7 . 49 , against 72 at last weekly'report ; North Carolinas, 73, against 681 ; Virginias, 581, against 56. At Boston the stock market complains that it does not feel the ease of the money markets, and sales are limited, and hard to effect without a disposition to sacri fice. Ride and Leather bank shares have fallen off to 96 under froshAiscoveries in regard to the extent of the de falcation. The domestic dry goods market remains without d ec id e d c h ang e ; cotton continues depressed, and there aro no indications of improvement, and in fact no reason why it should improve. The last symptom of spring trade has disappeared, and dealers have had to ac cept the unsatisfactory result as best they could. The larger houses are busying themselves with preparations for the fall campaign ; and the clerks are very generally taking or arranging to take their vacations much earlier than usual, so as to be at their posts promptly for the opening of trade. Apprehensions are expressed in some quarters lest manufacturers and mill owners should prove to have been so badly served the last year, as to induce them to keep their establishments closed, and thus create a scarc'ty come fall. But there is little fear of that. Men t are not likely to let one, three, or Aye hundred thousand dollars of capital lie idle when there is a reasonable show for manufacturing. As to their having been scorched last year, why they must learn to get used to that. Cotton and woollen machinery has been accumulated so much in excess in this country that we are sure for several years to have over-manufacturing, whenever there is any pro vocation to manufacture at all. [t is the curse of a pro duction too highly stimulated, whether by iodated cur currency, by war, or by extravagant protection. (From the Wall-street Journal.) NEW Yon; Friday Evening, June 19. Foreign Exchange is firm, and the supply of con imercial bills being limited the business done has been mostly against specie and bars. Railroad Stocks have not been wonderfully acti7e, the market being so largely controlled by cliques. We regret to note the failure to-day of a well-known stuck firm in connection with contracts in Reading, Erie, and Chicago and North-Western. The injunction on this latter com pany, restraining the payment of the dividend, has re sulted in a material decline in that stock, it being reported that this is but a series of suits against companies, declar ing stock dividends. The heaviest transactions and the most marked advance has been in Philadelphia and Read ing, which has been sold as high as 1001 under a steady demand from strong parties. The rapid advance of this stock from 931 a few days since has induced inquiry into the condition of the company's affairs, and from the last annual report we learn that the gross earnings in the fiscal year ending the 30th of November, 1867, were $9,106,496, and the total operating expenses $5,767,858, so that the receipts exceeded the cost of work ing the road by the sum of $3,388,638, or, after deduct ing other outlays not included in the operating expenses, $2,846,062. The bonded debt of the company amounts to .D 1,560,825, and the interest paid on this during the year was $395,180, leaving the net earnings, after deducting all the expenditures (exclusive of a charge of $68,600 for the sinking fund), $2,444,881. In addition to the regular earnings the company received from the Schuylkill Navi gation Company, for its proportion of rents, dm, the snm of $116,195, which raised the net receipts for the year to the sum of $2,492,473, or about 12 per cent. on the capital stock of $22,301,301, which would leave a surplus on hand, after paying a five per cent. cash dividend, of about a million and a half. Apart from $1,551,800 of preferred stock, the obligations already enumerated represent the entire stock and bonded debt of the company a little over thirty millions. The report says that the design to maintain a gold basis for any increase of the capital stock has been fully carried out, and, as the accounts show, the addition to capital resulting from the declaration of a dividend in stock has yielded the same result to the com pany, as the negotiation or issue of so much stock at par in gold, and the managers refer with satisfaction to the great reduction, amounting to $6,000,000, made in the funded debt during the past five years. Railroad Bonds are very active, with large sales. The Union Pacific Railroad Company have advanced the price of their first mortgage bonds to 102. Miscellaneous Stocks are steady, with a fair business in Quicksilver. Canton, Boston Water Power, Bankers' and Brokers' Association, have declined to 106. Petroleum Stocks are generally firm, with a good busi ness doing. Mining Stocks have been excited on the Colorado en terprises, in consequence of the good news from that re gion, the run being principally on Consolidated Gregory, New York, Montana, and Smith and Parmelee. There is also a good inquiry for Consolidated Colorado and Grass Valley. We learn that the Treasurj Office is now paying out in gold the principal of the United States Loan of 1848-68, with an abatement of the interest hence to the Ist July, when the loan falls due.

RAILROADS IN MAINE.—The various railroad en terprises in Maine that have been commenced re cently are making rapid headway. The European and North American Railway has been graded as far as Lincoln. Bangor proposes to penetrate the Piscataquis Valley by bands of iron, and Belfast intends to do the same, and push on to Moosehead Lake. The Knox and Lincoln Road, from Brook land to Bath, has been surveyed, and the work of building will be shortly commenced. This road will cost nearly one million and a half dollars. The Dexter and Newport Road is nearly completed, while the Somerset Road, from West Waterville to Canatunk Falls, has nearly all its stock taken up. The Portland and Rochester Road is getting along well, and the work of grading is nearly finished. Several other roads are projected.—Wall Street Journal.

PRICE.... 4d. STAMPED sd. PIGEON SHOOTING. GUN CLUB. Without exception one of the best handicaps that have been decided on the ground of the above-named club during the present season took place on Saturday last, and we cannot but congratulate Mr. Batteock, the secre tary, on the success that attended the £lO Sweepstakes, at 15 birds each, 30 yards' rise. No less than twenty-six gentlemen competed, inclusive of five post entries, and they were of course subjected to the usual restrictions. Al though J. Offer supplied some capital flying birds, the shooting throughout was excellent•, and indeed the scores of Viscount Stormont, the noble president of the club, Major Whittingstall, Hon. R. C. Hill, and Capt. A. B urnand seemed to be the most dangerous from tho commencement. In the thirteenth round, however, Capt. A. Burnand was compelled to retire ; and at the termination of the fifteenth only Major Whittingstall, Hon. R. C. Hill, and Viscount Stormont were left in to compete for the prizes, they having killed a dozen each. In shooting off Major Whittingstall killed two in succession, and won the first prize of £lBO. Viscount Stor mont and the Hon. R. C. Hill now had to shoot for the second and third prizes. Viscount Stormont brought down two, and as the Hon. R. C. Hill missed his second bird, the noble lord took second monoy, £GO; the third prize, £2O, going to the Hon. R. C. Hill. Previous to commenc ing the handicap the betting was quoted at 100 to 8 agst Captain Fredericks, and 100 to 6 each agst the others. The winner shot with a splendid muzzle-loader by Grant, of St. James's-street, as also did Lord Stormont. Previous to commencing the above, an important match was decided between Mr R. Herbert and Captain Penrith, who shot at 25 birds each, at 30 yards' rise, for a "..pony" -a , side. It was a most exciting contest throughout, and in the end Begin%ld Horbmt only won by a bird, he having killed 20 to his opponent's 19. Captain E. E. Nevile and Mr. H. Rudd likewise shot a match at a similar distance, for £lO a side, at seven birds each. Captain Nevile won by killing five, Mr. Rudd only bringing down three.

A .£3 Handicap Sweepstakes, at 7 birds each, organized by Mr. Prank Heathcote, was the principal event decide at this ground on Saturday last, and although the " field ' was not a large one, some excellent shooting took place. The conditions were similar to those generally put in force, and the Hon. Major Anson, M.P., Comte de Gendre, and G. C. Coningham were the only three who availed themselves of the privilege of shooting with 1} instead of 11, and consequently they stood in half a yard nearer.

In shooting off at bird for bird G. Braithwaite, who shot with an excellent 11-bore muzzle-loader by Bass and Co., of St. James's-street, killed no less than nine birds in succession, and as Comte de Gendre missed his eighth, the former became entitled to the first prize, Comte de Gendre taking the second of £2O.

SALE OF BLOOD STOCK AT EAST ACTON. The last sale of the season took place at East Acton on Saturday, when out of the 37 lots comprised in the cata logue 12 only were disposed of. The attendance was thin, but the aristocratic element was more strongly re presented than at recent sales; the bidding, however, was very languid, and it was with difficulty Mr. E. Tattersall disposed of the few he did. Lord Ports mouth's yearlings were a serviceable-looking lot, Captain Machell taking the first on the list by Cramond— Mrs. O'Rourke, for 300 guineas, for Sir C. Legard ; while Mr. W. S. Crawfurd bought a very good looking colt by Vengeance—Cachuca, whose chief fault is that his pasterns are rather twisted outwards. The Duke of Newcastle got two of Lord Bradford's, both being likely to race ; but the colt by Trumpeter—Maybell, is quite as good in appearance as anything sold this year. The re maining lots call for no comment. Prices as follows: Th e Property of Lord Portsmouth. Gs. Chesnut colt, by Cramond—Mrs. O'Rourke (Sir C. Legard) 300 Bay c., by Vengeance—Cachuca(Mr W. S.

C. H. Spurgeon, in preaching to his vast congre gation from the 6th and 7th verses of the 67th Psalm— " God, even our own God, shall bless us"—availed himself of the occasion to give another reply to the observation which was made by the Bishop of Oxford in his speech in the House of Lords. He said : "It is not the instrumentality which we have to look to, but it is the power from Heaven which is given to the instrumentality that makes the Church irresistible. We beard it said the other day that the religion of Jesus Christ could not be expected to prosper unless it had a fair start given to it, and, strange to say, that observation did not, as you might suppose, come from an infidel, but it absolutely came from a bishop. A fair start, indeed ! Put up the religion of Jesus Christ anywhere, and it asks for nothing. It only wants its own inherent strength to be developed, and to be let alone by the kings and princes of this world. To be let aline, did I say? Yes. Let these kings and princes oppose it if they like, only let them withdraw from it that deadly thing, their patronage, and the truth of God will always prevail against every obstacle. We do not tremble, then, for the success of the Church of Christ, though the servants of God be poor or compara tively weak in numbers, for we know that ' God will bless us ;' and, if we be few, we remember that the twelve unlettered fishermen who first went out to plant the Church were fewer still, yet that they made old Rome to shake from end to end, and levelled colossal citadels even with the ground ; and so shall it ever be with Christianity if only God shall bless her with the ancient might that made her strong in days of old." THE ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SHOW AT LEICESTER. Notwithstanding that but a few days have elapsed since the first reception of goods on the Royal Agricultural Society's show-ground at Leicester, already many thou sands of tons of implements have arrived, the discharge of railway waggons on the new branch line, which runs close to the show-ground, averaging during the former part of last week 50 a day, and during the latter portion 200 a day. During Saturday, so rapid was the receipt of imple ments that men were employed until midnight at the railway-yard, and work was to be resumed after midnight on Sunday. The stands taken by implement manu facturers this year are about 340, against 282 at Bury St. Edmunds last year, where the show was pronounced Officially as "remarkable for the most extensive collec tion of implements and machinery yet brought together." Consequently, the display at Leicester will be the largest of all previous exhibitions of the kind. One important feature this year in connection with the shedding is, that the machinery in motion will be in a continuous line (east to west), and the stands opposite to each exhibitor in the implement department (the sheddings for which run in a transverse direction), instead of, as in former years, being scattered up and down the show ground. Consequently, the stand for each exhibitor of implements will be in close proximity to his stand for machinery in motion. This arrangement has been carried out so as to ensure more regularity of arrange. ment, and to spare visitors to the show-ground a pro tracted tour of the yard in quest of any particular stand, which in such a field as fifty acres is highly desirable. Nevertheless, the run of shedding will be over four miles. There will be over 100 engines in full motion on the ground, and every arrangement has been made, by the establish. ment of a temporary fire-engine station, for promptly staying any outbreak of fire. The implements will be shown in 30 sheds, 23 cf them being 300 ft. by 20ft., and the remainder 200 ft. in length ; while the machinery in motion will be comprised in two large sheds of 1,050 ft. run by 20ft. to 25ft. wide. There are eight sheds for seeds and models, 160 ft. by 13ft., and 22 for cattle. The following is the arrange ment for the ensuing week :—Thursday, July 9, to Wed nesday, July 15, trial of ploughs and field implements, and preliminary trial of steam cultivators, on farms belong. ing to Messrs. Stone and Miles, in the parishes of Cnighton and Aylestone, adjoining the Midland Rail way, about a mile south of the show-yard. Prizes £255. Admission will be free. The arrangements for the annual county exhibition of the Royal Horticultural Society are also rapidly approaching completion. This will cover five acres, and will be the largest held in the provinces. LION SHOOTING. Two of our military Nimrods, Lieutenants Stacey and Tinling, have been lately to the Joonaghur geer, or forest, in quest of large game. The latter officer, before leaving the geer,in company with his brother sportsman, managed to bag two lionesses and a large lion. The latter, a huge monster, measuring nearly eleven feet from the tip of the nose to the shaggy end of the tail, appears to have tried the patience and mettle of its antagonists. At the first meeting the encounter ended in a flesh wound, which made the "lord of the forest" scamper into the jungle, leaving a gory track to mark the path. The pursuit was about to be given up, after a long search, when a native discharged a "Manton" into the brushwood, and the lion reappeared and made a dash at the two officers, who allowed the brute to come pretty close up before firing. The simultaneous volley, so far, however, from slackening the elocity of the charge, accelerated the motion. In the twinkling of the eye both sportsmen bounded a few paces on each flank, leaving a passage for the infuriated beast to pass, and immediately after, on the lion refacing, planted a bullet (Lieutenant Tithing, I believe) between the brute's two eyes, which brought it lifeless to the ground. The triumph was signalised by a bumper of iced champagne. Lieutenant Stacey, since the return of his companion, has, it is said, bagged two tigers, a tigress, and two cubs, and some half a dozen panthers and cheetas.—Correspondent of Deccan Herald. At a special general meeting of the London Unive rsity College, on Saturday, Professor Grote, the historian of Greece, was elected president, in the room of Lord Brougham, deceased. The high literary attainments and position of Mr. Grote eminently fit him for this distin• guished post. Mr. Longfellow has, it is understood, put a veto upon the acceptance of invitations to public enter tainment. His objection, however, does not extend to Trivate invitations, such as that which he has received for hursday next, from the distinguished American artist, Mr. Bierstadt, to a banquet at the Langham Hotel, where he will meet a distinguished party of literary men, among *hom will be Mr. Alfred Tennyson. THE DEPARTURE OF HER MAJESTY FOR OBBORNE.—Her Majesty the Queen, accompanied by their rtoyal Highnesses Princesses Louise and Beatrice, Prince Leopold, and Prince and Princess Louis of Hesse, attended by the suite, is expected to leave Windsor Castle about Wednesday for Osborne. Her Majesty will travel ty special train over the Great Western and South Western lines to Gosport, and cross thence to Osborne. Circulars have been issued by the great beetroot sugar refinery at Itzehoe, in Holstein, to the farmers in the vicinity of Eutin, inviting them to cultivate beetroot on an extensive scale, and binding themselves to erect a new establishment in that town capable of working up 200,000 centners of roots annually, provided the pro• prietors of at least 1,000 acres of land are willing to turn their attention to that species of cultivation. They offer to take any quantity at a certain fixed rate, and the cost of the new works at Eutin is estimated at 200,000 dollars.. —The Grocer. EXTRAORDINARY CONDUCT OF A BAPTIST MINISTER.—At the Newport Petty Sessions, William Jenkins, Baptist minister, has been charged with felo niously shooting at Sarah Green, at Risca, on the 26th ult. Complainant was a domestic servant in the employ of Cap. taro Jacobs, of Holly House, Risca. On the day named she was in the garden when prisoner called out to her, and immediately fired at her. When the police searched his room they found a six-barrelled revolver, five of the, chambers being loaded with ball, and one discharged, the empty case of the bullet being found in the discharged. chamber. A few days previously the police suspected the prisoner of being of unsound mind, and sent him to the union to be examined by the medical officer of the union, but he was discharge d. He told the magistrates he shot the girl out of human it y . He was committed for trial at the assizes, bail being refused for his appearance. DEFEATED ATTEMPT AT Alur.DEß..—On Saturday morning, at about two o'clock, at Newark, a most daring and diabolical attempt at murder was made. It appears that an old man, a retired publican, named Gee, who resides in Queen's -road, and who was supposed to keep a consider. able sum of money in his house, was confronted by a , would-be murderer, wh o had effected an entrance at the back of the premises. A struggle ensued as the desperado endea voured to cut the old man's throat ; but the old man, who is a cripple, used his crutch with such vigour that he not only, except a few scratches, kept himself out of the way of the knife, but he also struck the knife, which caused it to enter the ruffian's own hand. Gee also knocked his c c r u a o t s c e h a o t h n e t h e s s e ceiling t t o o n g l a v k e e a o n ff , a N l v a i r la th t° his a h lo a d u ge d r bleeding which most profusely.
