The MONEY MARKET.-As the pack
cts sail to-day, we devote a short space to
the state of the New York Money Mark
ct. Money has become abundant at the
rate Of per cent per annum interest, but
then it is onl Y to be had on such security
as it is difficult to give, and security which,
a short time ago, would have been deemed
amply sufficient, is now totally rejected
The al lndance OF money is, therefore, no
relief ID the active men of business, nor is
it parted with in confidence, or with IA ia
ciIity W ich gives life to enterprise In
Exc han es, but little has been DONE
Bills on Lordon have been sold at 10 per
cent pref blum, l24 per cent, and even Is
l6 per It. Such is the present extraer-
binary stAte of our money market. Some
sales on France were made at is. TIC,
some at S is. l74c.; on Holland at AZ a
44c. on Hamburg at 81 cents, and Bre-
men at 8l3 834c. The highest rates
were Of course obtained for the choicest
paper. Mexican dollars have been selling
for City Bank paper, at 8 9 per Ct pre-
MUM. Half dollars to per cent, and
sovereigns at from 5,25 to 5,35, and all IN
demand at this premium. 1t is believed
considerable amour! of specie is going
out in the packets.-N. Y Courier.
WHERE TO PUT Tive have a fact
but do not know where to put it. Some
times we have concluded to let it go un-
notced-then again to place it in some
part Of the paper where it would be least
| likely 10 be read the enquiry would then
come up, why hesitate, its only telling the
truth, no one can be offended at that and
so here you have the disgusting fact. At
the late meeting of the General Assembly
of the Presbyterian church in PhiladeI-
phia several meeting houses were refuse d,
and it was with great difficulty a place
was obtained for the accommodation ofthe
ASSEMBLY y. The on y reason of refusal
was, the Ministers used so much tobacco
that they injured the house by occupying
it.
This circumstance brings to mind an
ancient regulation made at a town meeting
in Portsmouth as early as 1862, when il
was ordered that cage be built or some
DINER means devised, at the dscretio Of
the Selectmen, to punish such as take to-
bdcce on the Lords day, in time Of public
servIce.-N. H. Bap Register.
