MONEY MARKET.
Sunday. Oct. 49,

Sunday. Oct. 20-6 p. M.
The stock market, during the week just closed, has
experienced considerable fluctuations and at one time
perfect panic had seized upon spectators. The eff
feet was not however, disastrous it would have
been had prices been more inflated The decline pro-
duced by this alarm among holders of fancies has
since been partially recovered, and the market has
again settled dow into the usual quiet state prices will
gradually previous points, and dullness and
inactivity again be the order of the day. for perha
months to 1t is our impression that the money
market will steadily soften. until capital becomes
compete drug. The demand is already much less than
it sixty or ninety days since, and 1t is almost
daily decreasing. The steady depreciation in prices,
for all kinds of property has alarmed operators of all
kinds and no ventures upon transactions to any
extent The most reduced range Of prices fails to
tempt capitalists to change money into property; and
there seems to be rapidly growing disposition among
all classes to lock up their capital in some safe place.
and patiently wait the course of events. To sum up
the whole in few words, confidence Ia completely
Gone, and there is health in commercial affairs
Money Is almost useless in Great Britain, and its abuu
dance has reduced its value to the lowest point and
before the lapse of many months shall, without
doubt realize the state Of things In this country.
1t is true that the same sum Of money will purchase
more cotton more corn, more produce and merchan-
dise of any kind, and greater quantity of stocks
than at any previous period within the past Ave
but that is nothing when there is market for these
articles, and those who purchase have to hold them
long time before advance can be realized. There
appears to be lull in all commercial enterprise and
nothing in the prospective calculated to create de-
mand of any Importance for products, or to give
any stimulus to prices The future is filed with ap-
prehenson, and at present there IL nothing but
fear and distrust. II this state of things con-
tipues long there will be q very important re-
duction In production another year, and IL
will only be by checking the supply Of all the necesss
ries Of life that prices will recover their former level

Election Rcturns-AtlsntIc,L Lake, and Mis-
sissipDl TELEGRAPH.

The general anxiety throughout the United States,
to ascertain at the earliest practicable moment, the
results of the Presiden election induces the SUBJ
sorber to uesi the teegraphers the various lines
within the Atlantic, Lake and Mississippi Range, TO
keep their offices open at all hours of night sswel
day for the reception and transmission of dispatches,
and for the correction of any until t. returns
correctly transmitted between all the States that
connected by these lines, viz Pennsylvania, New
York, Ohio, Maryland Virginia. H ntucky Michigan,
Indiana, Illinois Missouri, Iowa. Tennessee, Alabama,
Mississippi and Louisiana.
RThe exemplary manner in which the telegraphers
generally have complied with public expectation on
such occasions renders it needless to add more than
request that extreme be taken to avoid by
requiring that all dispatches offered for Transmission
shall be written very plaialy, and with numbers in
words instead of figures
or course, no teegrapher, and no officer or other
person connected with any telegraph company will
transmit any dispatches that not signed with a
proper name; but, addd nal precaution, II is
suggested that the residence of the writer be also ad IL
to the despatch.
The reporters for the newspapers at the various tee
graph stations have it in their power largely to aid In
these objects and their cooperation is respectfully
invited, with the assurance that every thing which
consistently be DONE will be done to promote their
convenience in disseminating correct aud early in
telligence respecting the Presidential election.

The Washington Monument.


To THE EDITOR IHE HERALD
SIR In cOmmu nication pub ished in the Herald,
Sunday last in relation to the Washington National
Monument, now in the of erection here, re-
gret to find that the writer has thrown insinua-
ton, from which the reader might infer want of
economy on the part of the Board Of Managers. He
asserts that instead Of employing horse, as is
usually dene, some forty fifty men man rope at
taehed to small truck and haul away" This is not
the fact. The stone (bue gneiss) landed wharf
about one hundred and fifty yards from the founds-
ton of the monument, and Is brought to the build
ing by stone wagon drawn by four horses the
weighing from two to eight After the stone
is deposited some half dozen laborers draw it up
truck to the place where it is to be laid (abou eight
feet high) because it cannot, at present be done in
any other way Instead of forty fifty aborers there
not more than thirty employed on the monument;
the rest are masons and other workmen who are oc.
cupied industriousy and .kilfully in laying the
foundation, which is admitted by all who it, to be
the finest and most substantial specimen of masonry
will be obtained to facilitate the work. and render the
expense as little as possible.
EThe Board of Managers who have devoted thirteen
years of their lives 20 the accomplishment of OBJ
.ject which is intended to remove the stigma of in
gratitude from he character of their country
too much interested in its mpletion ex
eXtravagantly. The work, when completed, will sur
pass every other monument in the world and do honor
to the patriotic feelings of the American people, by
whom it will be erected.
The foundation is eight y. one feet square, which
twenty feet all of solid maonry-at this eleva-
ton the great obelsk give hundred feet high) will
start The walls will be fifteen feet thick at the base
withlsn opening in the CENTRE of twenty five feet
the top. The material so far, has been obtained
the most reasonable terms and the whole monthly
penditure for labor does not exceed striking
evidence that the most rigid economy s observed by
the Board of Managers in the erection of this mag
nifcent and stupe structure This works.,
