Cry AUTHoRITIEs ARRESTED. The Bunker
Hill Aurora tells story if true, of singular adven-
ture of the Mayor and Aldermen of Charlesown, last
week. 1t appears that they came up to Worcester on
Thursday afternoon to inspect the gas works there,

particularly to observe how far the gas mandatory was

made this inquiry of Waterman who had for some
time suspicosy observed their proceedings and he,
under preence of guiding them, conveyed them to the
city ,cltch house Their protestations to their true
character and objects received with some doubt,

We think that whatever opinions the Mayor and AL

gas works of Worcester, that there be mistake
but they favorably impressed with the vigil

FINANCE AND BUSINESS The Boston Post
OF Monday says, money, stocks and business are
about as inactive may be. For the first there is
almost no demand outside of the banks, and the
street rates are nominal. Paper, which was sold a
few months back at l-2 per cent. month, was
discounted on Saturday at I-2 per cent per an
mum. Money is easier than it was week ago, or,
to speak correctly, the slight demand occasioned by
heavy payments in the early part of the month has
subslded, and money is temporarily accommodating
At the same time, the bank loans are not high-their
largest and best customers continue to pay small
extra per centage for exchange, and taking fort
night together, they have not the slightest difficulty
IN lending all their cash. General inactivity has pro-
duced an apparent abundance in those quarters most
likely to feel the slightest changes in the market as
railroads, factories, brokers' stock SPECTATORS But
with people further removed from the financial GEN.
tire, we suspect that money is no more than fairly
easy. The pinch is still hard in the INTERIOR and
those in the city who depend for their means upon
country customers are not overwhelmed with sur
pluses. Nevertheless, every thing is tending to
real and large abundance. This very inactivity is
favorable, and the interior must be fast recovering
from the effects of having poured forth its money and
credit like water upon hitherto Improbable and in
expedent Investments
