Increased easiness is reported in the New York
Money Market in the accounts by the steamer Ame-
rica, 7 per cent, being the allowance for loans on call,
while the rates of discount had receded to 8 and
12 per cent. The last weekly return published by
the City banks exhibited very few features of in-
terest. The loans and discounts had increased
234,014 dollars, and the specie was smaller by
321,030 dollars.
Al hough there is no alteration to report in the
value of discount accommodation there is de-
cidedly an improved feeling, which has been
partly stimulated by the favourable reduction
exhibited in the Army and Navy e,timates.
There is a disposition to look forward with
increased confident with regard to monetary
affairs, and the prospect of the arrivals of gold,
being far in excess of the shipments to the Conti-
nent, has dissipated the fears lately aroused by the
continuous drain. About 100,0001. of the
gold by the Morning Light was sent into
the Bank yesterday. The directors at the
Weekly Court to-day have made no alteration in
the rate of discount, and owing to the more satis-
factory position of things, scarcely any anxiety was
evinced to ascertain the result of their deliberations.
