Finarciering in California.

We clip the follnwing from the San
francisco correspondence Of the Mo-
bile Advertiser, to give our readers
an insight into the way financial op-
erations are managed in the Golden
State:
Notwithstanding the enormous rates
of interest that luIe here, one Of the
best of our banking concerns here, is
winding up, for removal to New York,
regarding the Rates for capital there
bettyr than 2 and 8 per cent. per
month here, with the increased risks.
Strange as you may regard it, money
will command from D to 6 per cent.
per month in the interior. and on what
are regarded good securities; but l am
convinced that there are very few in
stances In which such rates can he
paid without entailing certain ruin on
the borrower. Many lenders have
found it equally ruinous, torso change
able is the value of securities that the
shrewdest Shylock will sometimes find
himself grasping a myth in lieu of bis
pound of flesh y Much property in
this city will not to-day pay the first
of two to four or five mortgages, and a
large portion Of the improvement of
this city have been mace on borrowed
capital at these ruinous rates.
Several futures have occurred here
within few days, and among them
is "A specimen of our "fast men," One
of our flour dealers failed in October
last, took the benefit of the insolyent
act, and again engaged in business
On Thursday of last week he purchas-
ed several lots of flour, paying small
part in cash and giving checks for bal
ance, payable on Saturday. He sold
the same goods for cash on same day,
at a large discount; on same evening
was married; next day purchased a
residence for $4,000 cash, to be held
by his wife under the Homestead
Act drew all his funds from the banks;
on Friday evening hisstore was closed
by the Sheriff; on Saturday went on
"a wedding trip with his new wife, and
on his return same night he was ar
rested for fraud and is now in jail
He managed the affair so well it is
not likely he can be convicted, and he
will probably escape the clutches Of
