STOCKS AND AMERICAN SECURITIES IN GER
MANY The following communication, D, relating to
the prices of stocks and American securities has
been receivedfrom an Intelligent correspondent at
Frankfort, under date of June q
"The transactions In American bonds, &c have
been so tritiing as not to be worth mentioning -
The Threatening repudiatiOn of the city of Pitts
burg serves TO heighten the general distrust, If
such cases are to happen often, German capitalists
will make no further investments In American
securities The highest rate of interest will hard
ly tempt any one to leopard tie capital.
The action of the California Senate has been
watched with much anxiety by those interested
here, and its late vote has given great satisfaction
not Only to the bondholders but to every American
in this quarter.
The money market ia splentifully supplied. The
Bank of Frankfort has just reduced its rate of dis
count from per cent to per cent"

had to come on to unlock it, which
