The receipts at the b-Treasury were $3.50, 40;

Bark statement exhibits about the result that was
anticipated. The Specie hes increased 100000, and
the loans apparently o. 700 oOo but adding the two
broken banks not included in the present statement
the decrease Ia about o., 900 900. The Deposits
down sl,I5OoOO apparently, but in fact about
essO.OOO. This decrease has taken place to large
degree in the uptown banks, which have suffered
more or less run during the week past. The Circu-
lstion ia also lower and the whole movement Of the
banks shows contraction quite suficen, to account
for the increased stringepcy of the money market.
The loans are now about nine millions below the
point they stood at when the monthly statements
commenced, and are only about three and half
millions above the minimum point OF the contraction
which followed. The comparisons With last week is
