of war, but ill adapted to secure the steadiness and con-
fidence required in time of peace. On the 14th ult., we
intimated the probability that ordinary movements
would induce a very active market, presenting a tempta-
tion to artificial efforts to produce an embarrassing
stringency, which has since been the actual course of
events. The increased activity of business in all parts
of the country called for an unusually free retail circula-
tion of currency ; the country banks generally drew
largely upon their agents in this city ; and the scarcity of
legal tenders among the banks was very plainly indicated
in the free presentation of the 3 per Cent. Certificates at
the Sub-Treasury for redemption, a total of $17,536,000
being redeemed by the Assistant Treasurer; from Oct. 1 to
Nov. 5. In this condition of affairs a strong combination
of speculators withdrew from, the market a large amount
of funds, variously estimated at from $10,000,000 to
$15,000,000, which they have kept hoarded for two or
three weeks, producing a stringency unequalled since the
days of 1857. For this period money was considered cheap
at 7 per cent. in gold, and for ton days a large amount of
the call loans on stocks have been made at from i to j per
criiit. per day, in addition to the legal rate.

London, Nov. 25.
With regard to the market for American SecuritieS,
Messrs. E. F. Satterthwaite and Co. state as follows
"In the London market United States Government Bonds
generally show an improvement of 1 par cent. en the
week, but this is not in proportion to the advance which
has taken place on he Now York market, where a rise Of
4 per cent. on the 1862 issue has taken place during the
last seven days ; this discrepancy in value arises from
the fact that the price for bonds for immediate de-
livery in New York is considerably higher than that
for the usual time bargains, leading to the belief
that the price has been put up on speculative operation&
Here the closing price is 74i to 751, and for the 1865'6►
731 to 73f. Illinois Shares have been neglected, and
show little alteration ; but in Eries we have again to
report a large business with wide fluctuations from day to
day, based on the quotations received by telegraph from
New York; from 31 on Thursday last, the highest price
of the week, they fell gradually, until to-day they touched
26±; from this, however, there has been some slight reac-
tion, and they leave off 27 The contango paid to-def
for carrying over shares until the next account range
from 4d. to 6d. per share. There appears to be a growing
disposition to take Central and Union Pacific Bonds, and
the price here is fractionally higher."
