MONEY MARKET.

MONDAY XVIN/WO.
The accounts from the continental bourses received
to-day present no important features. At Antwerp
and Brtuaels, the national securities were firm, with
the quotations well supported, the Five per Cents. at
983 to I. Austrian fonds were more inquired for,
the Five per Cents. at 793. At Amsterdam the Two-
and-a-Half per Cent. Integrals, and the Four pre
Cents. had been more freely offered, and were 1 to 3
par cent. lower. Austrian fends also I lower. 'Rus-
sian, Spunieb, and Portuguese were firm and prices
well maintained. Peruvian were higher. At Frank-
fort the Austrian Metalliquss bad been dealt in to
some extent, and Two-and-a-Half per Cent. Integrals
also in consequence of the higher quotations received
from Amsterdam; but the following day the Metal-
receded j to I.
Hamburg advice, of the 21st state that scarcely
any business had been done in coffee during the
week, but as little was offered prices remained with-
out alteration, though the tone of the market was
less firm. In sugar a fair amount of business had
been done, owing to the readiness of ho'dere to accept
lower rates. Cotton was dull. In hides a good deal
had been done at full market rates. The same may also
be said of tobacco. Train Oil Mt/ firm at previous rates.
The bonuses in wool was beginning to assume more
animation, and Mecklenburg fleeces had realised 161
to 171 sob, for common, and 18 to 20 rob. bco. per In.
for good washed. In spel'er nothing had been done.
The grain market was dull, bat haders were firm in
demanding previous rates. The Exchange on Lon-
don: was quoted 13.9 for short, and gold 436
marks. There was rather more inquiry fur money,
and funds were rather weak. Spanish Three per
Cents., intaricr, quoted 31 buyers. Danish Three per
Cents., 71j.

The &deices received by the Asia from the United
States are not of any particular interest to the com-
mercial reader. They extend to the 11th from New
York, and from private letters we glean a few addi-
tional particulars of the market to those already pub-
lished in the Express. The importations of piece
goods for the autumn trade were greatly on the in-
crease, and the stocks were already larger than usual
at the season of the year; bet before the 4th of
July no cornet estimates can be given of the actual
quantity of foreign dry goods imported. From
every section of the west the wheat crop is represented
as looking promising, but nothing certain can be
known until the grain is housed, as last year at the
same time the crop looked equally promising, but was
subsequently struck with the rust and considerably
damaged. The accounts from the cotton-growing dis-
tricts continued to be very unfavourable for the
growing crop. In the money market there
was no apparent change, except a tendency
for cheaper rates during the summer months.
The demand for exchange on England was
moderate, and the chief part of the remittance, per
Asia, was merle at 1091 to 110. There was scarcely
any al:eration in the value of public securities, for
which the demand was moderate. The Cherokee
steamer had arrived from (levee, with dates from
San Francisco to the Ist May, and with about
1,600,000 dell. value in gold dust, on freight, and in
the hands of passengers. The total amount of trans-
fers of United States loans, for foreign account, from
let January to Ist Jute, was 4,312,986 dollars, besides
..clupon stcek.

A discovery of gold mines has been made in
Indiana, on several small creeks not far from Bloom-
icgt• n. ecmpanies of washers and diggers from
Indiana and the adjacent states are hard at work, and,
according to their own account, are making good
wages. The work is said to be very laborious, but
the expenses light.

The New Orleans Bulletin says, that the next to-
bum cr.p is likely to be an unumally short ono in
all the Eastern Stves in which that staple is grown,
and adds :—" On the high and dry lands of Virginia
the fly has destroyed nearly all the plants, and
wherever this insect has not destroyed the plants,
they are exceedingly small." A letter from Hender-
son, N.C., inclines to the opinion that " there will not
be more than a fourth or half a crop of tobacco made
this year, for want of plants." We trust (pays the
Baltimore American) the accounts from other to-
bacco-growing regions of our own, as well an from
oar sister State of North Carolina, may prove more
encouraging.

The New Bedford oil market report mentions •
good demand for sperm, but the transactions of the
week were light, the views of holders being generally
above those of buyers. Holders asked 120 cents. per
gallon; 1,000 bble. had been disposed of, it was sup-
posed, at this price. Whale oil was also iu good de-
mand, but for the same reasons quoted above, trans-
actions had been limited. Sales had been made at
33 cents. for 1,700 bbls. Four cargoes bad arrived
during the week. Whalebone had further advanced
in price, and 41,0001b5. Polar had been taken at 36 to
37; cents. The total imports from Jan. Ito June 3
into the United States were 45,983 bbls. sperm,
147,660 bbls. whale oil, and 2,201,0001b5. whalebone.

Havannah letters of the sth inst. state that a brisk
business was going forward in sugar, and prices were
arm at previous rates. White descriptions were in
demand for %milt, and in some instances a slight ad-
vance had been paid. Freights had declined to 35e.
to 40s. for Cowes and a market in the North Sea.
Exchange on England 11 per cent. prem.
A circular letter has just been hurled by Mr. Wil-
liam Perish Robertson, addressed to the Mexican
bondholders, in which he offers some remarks in vin-
dication of his proceedings in his late mission to
Mexico, consequent upon the report recently published
by the committee.
