COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE

NEW YORK, JANUARY 28.
Money is more abundant, and the rates for loans on call bas
been reduced to sto 6 per cent. Discount on first class paper
rules from 6to 8 per cent. The total amount of coin exported
from Ist to 24th instant was about 82,194,314. The aggregate
of gold deposits at the Philadelphia Mint, for the same period,
was 83,937,600. In consequence of the great severity of the
weather, the spring. trade has not as yet fully opened. The
importations of foreign goods continue large. For the current
month they will be fully .813,000,000 for this port alone, and
.57,000,000 at other ports. Some few failures have been
reported at New Orleans, one of the houses having a branch
here. The cause assigned is the disastrous results of cotton
shipments during the past year.
The business in foreign exchange has not been large, but
sterling bills close a little firmer. We quote bills on London
9i to 10* per cent. ; Paris, 5,131 f. to 5,15. sixty days; 5,10 f.
