INSPECTORS OF THE PENIiENTIARY.

On Thursday, Gov. JOHNSON sent TO the Senate
the names of three gentlemen as Inspectors of the
Penitentiary in obedience to the law which re-
ouires the Governor to nominate and the Senate to
confirm. The nominees of the Governor-Messrs
G. L. SLOAN, S. P. AMENr and G. w. SMrH-are
substantial mechanics of this city men who, hav-
ing managed their own business well, may be
trusted to manage the business of the State.
An effort was yesterday made in the Senate to
confirm the nominations, but they were laid on the
table until Thursday, the 29th instant, after good
deal Of debate, ostensibly to enable the Senators
to study the characters of the nominees, but really
we fear, to study their preferences for keeper OF
the penitentary M BELL very ably resisted the
postponeunent, and as usual showed himself a
ready debater A haf-dozen speeches were made
on the other side, the force Of which we were una
bic to appreciate.
As the nominees Of the Governor are every way
qualified for the place trust that, if they are re-
jected, their rejection viii be put upon ale right
ground and, as it is very easy TO see where the
shos now pinches, So if the rejection is accom-
plshed, the reason of it will be very apparent We
should regret the necessity which could force US
again TO notice this matter

The money market to-day was quite active
Borrowers at call paid per cent freely and the
rates Of interest on business paper were something
sitter than last quoted Very little is done under
10 per cent The amount of prime bills offering
outside of bank, however, is not excessive. The
business in foreign exchange was at irregular rates
and in the aggregate to liberal amount First
class drawers sold at l098alO9a in London.
Settlements were made with the foreign bankers
at the outside figure Good produce bills were done
at log to 1898. On Paris, bankers names 5.I28a
l33; other good bills 10. Messrs DeCoppet d
Co. quote on the North of Europe, guilders 4Ia3
marks 57a37 /; rix dollars 802a8I It is a subject
of remark that with comparatively easy rates of ex-
change, in no case afording profit worth counting
on specie shipment the outward movement of gold
should continue so active
The explanations are various; but the chief is,
that in the present temper of the English discount
market the banking parties on the other side prefer
gold to bills; and they just stand as they have
for some time stood-such large creditors to this
country that their wishes and conveniences are law
to their correspondents here A remark in Liver
pool paper by the last packet implies that it is in
Englands interest to draw largely upon the supply
of American gold while she is such heavy loss to
the continent, without counting the exchange too
closely
