At Philadelphia the money market is easy, though
there is rather more demand than recently, ana rates
rule at az y cer1 discount on good reliable bids.
AT Boston the money market is active. The rates
for first class paper range from 7ias y cent, ana
lower grades submit to larger discounts, extending all
the way from e cent to double interest.
The Boston Courier says;

The following statement from an English mining
journal. throws some light upon the cause OF the re-
cent decline in the price o. Copper in that market
Copper which last week was quoted at the rate pi
f124 and fl26 4 tuu has fallen, and can nov be OBJ
tanned for ElO7 los. Although, at the trs. glance thls
might appear to exercise banefal influence on MN
ing adventure, yet We are OF OPINION that tae osPe
citation in price will not be followed oy sucn results as
msny alarnsts would lead Us to suppose TOT cvu-
siderable period the artificial demand created Oy tue
war stimulated spectators, and probably large stocks
have been laid in by smeers in order to keep up tue
supply at high rate our ex bs swansea

small meters, who, owing to paucy OF means are no,
able to compete with the larger estaplshmenIs, aua

in mind that when copper has been much iower hinng

At Cincinnati money is in good supply, at sGlO per

shares are finn st 80. The earnings OF the road foc
fifteen days in this month are over e. 500 IN excess OF
the same period last season.
The business of all the prominent roads in this Sec
ton will this year largely exceed that of any previous
wear. The favorable results of the wheat harvest OF
the West which reach us from all sections, both as to
quality and amount of yield, and the improved aud
promising condition of the crop, give assurance
Of large and prosperous business this Fall aud
