are entertained that the Winter may close
in before tn IRE is any change for the better. The ap
pre- her sion of such resyt gives pge Of gloom to
mercantile prospects there, and while boxing at il
rnomentariy as a probable contingency TIE Gazette
saws the mind instnctively turns away frem as too
serious and painful for contemplation. The warehouses
are full of goods and manufacturers awaiting Shipment;
and the inability to ship themis telling upon the Money
market Shippers. without shipments to draw upon,
have TO carry their paper through the season as they
best cam and this has thrown paper or the mar
ket than ever known before, except in 1854. Money
consequently is scarce and dear, and rst-class bOr
roweis not unfrequeutly pay lOdl2 y cent. The
banks have their discount lines quite full.
The Pottsrit Miners Journal furnishes the an
psxd statement of the questions at issue between the
coal operators and the Reading Railroad:
1--WE have not been able to obtain full statement
Of all the difficulties that existbu the main eAtures
are these: The Company allowed 4 e. cent & tun TO
the dealers for dunpage; subsequently new arrange
ment was made between the Company and the dealers
by which the latter claimed allowance of l24 cents
y tun for dumpage; dispute arose about the terms OF
the agree ment which was referred to Their counsel
The claim was allowed in the settlement OF some bills,
with the uude ndiDg that il TO be refunded in
case il was decided snst the dealers. The matter so
remained until the resignation OF Mr. tucker and the
election of Mr.. Cullen as President. The Board then
psss ed resO uion allowing ohy cents tun, and
notified those who claimed the II! cents, aud required
tie cents to be refunded they refuse to refund and
the have been stopped to There parties The 9TH
Both parties appear to did out-and the
trade by railroad will be rather slim next week.
"It il to be regretted that this difficulty occurred at
the close of the in the present state of the trade
but vessels scarce and the parties interested don't
cs,e much about receiving coal just now and they
think they can hold out long the Railroad Com
papy 1t said that eight firms received the allow
ance oe I2I cents in settlement of bills and refuse TO
refund anu the balance are interested in their mnn'
tanning their claim becauee if allowed to those firms,
the Others i'll be entitled to the 4 cents aiso.
1--WE think the the ORA sbacks are dispensed
with the better except 10 cases where they are una
voidabla high rates Of tolls promulgated which,
in many instances are greatly reduced by subsequent
drawbacks, unk nown to the public. This gives q kind

The Boston Post Gays:
1.-The Boston Money market hiss been tight for the
week past, and up to vest rday it exhibited tde or no

cred frstcliss paper goes at 10. Exchange With New
York has been decidedly against this city, The Suffolk
Bank has been obliged to buy very large amount OF
New York funds, daily, in payment OF the heavy sums
of Eastern money sent to it from NewYOrk for redemp

tinued later and larger than usual is added TO The ord
nary wants of the market, and occasions sOms raas
