COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE,

NEW YORK, Sere. 30.
The stock market opened to-day very heavily, except for
government stuck., which exhibited an advance. The 'pc-
eulative stocks all diehard. At the Second Board, how-
ever,
a rather better feeling was shown, ascrilwd to the fact
that arrangements have been made by the secretary of the
treasury fur the payment, within a few days, of 2,900,000
dots. out of the mint, un certificates of de it in advance
of the actual coinage. A sum of 400,000 dubs. was also paid
toalay out of the sub-treasury to the order of the commis-
sioners of Indian affair., which was paid into the think of
America. These facts are calculated to relieve the market.
The Government Sizes of 1867 advanced I, and those of
1864,1. The. Bank of Commerce hu declined suddenly 21
per cent. to par; Erie Stock, 1 ; Harlem, ; Erie Conver-
tibles,:; and Erie Bowlsßowlsof 1459, 11. New-Jersey Min-
ing Co., advanced 4.
In freights there is less offerinz, but the rates have im-
proved. Engagements for 1,800 bbls. flour, to Liverpool,
were made at Sd., and wane wheat at 31d. To London, 500
bbl.. resin at 71., and heavy goods at previous rites.
In foreign exchange we arc happy, at length, to have to
record an easier feeling. To-day's southern mail has
brought a large supply of southern bills based on cotton
shipments from southern porta--New Orleans and Mobile.
The receipts of cotton at the port are largely increasing, and
as the southern banks—themselves premed for specie—are
calling in their indebtedness from the planters, there is a
strong disposition to sell and ship. Cotten is rather declin-
ing in price in consequence. Mews. Rothschild's agents
have taken a large portion of these bills, and the New
York agent here has been offering, this afternoon, 75,000 f.
at 110:, which is a deeliue of 4. 'the Merchants' bank,
also, as agent of the Dank of Mobile, is offering
25,0001. at the same prier. This is the first symptom of a
decline in exchange, and as cotton will now rapidly come for-
ward in discharge of obligations, the Southern Ranks hav-
ing been drained of specie, not being able to continue heavy
advances, the pressure for specie thus is forcing cotton
forward, and liberal receipts of this staple will iu time re-
lieve our money market.
The stringcuev of the money market is entirely local to
the seaboard. The internal currency continuis eaay. It is
comp uee d in unusual proportion of gold coin. the rates
for the discount of commercial paper continue firm at 12 to
15 per cent. There is no present abatement in the demand
for money, or increase iu its supply. Lo.an4 on call are not
freely made. 'there is still a run on the brokers forth' sole
of uncurrent money. The Metropolitan hank has also re-
ceived very Large amounts of it within the last few days,
which has occasioned a vast amount being sent in for re-
demption ; which in turn has kept the various banks in full
activity. The brokers arc buying more than they can sell,
which impels a constant redemption.
The failure of Messrs. Riley and Pendleton, dry goods
merchants, at llidtinuire, has betas announced. Their
pia-
bilitics are stated at 200,000 dole.
The following is the statement of the affairs of Messrs.
Cheeseborough and tit; erns, as submitted to their creditors :
