Money Market.

The rates of domestic exchange at New 1oTk,
as we'll as at all of the Atlantic cities, have
come down within very reasonable limits
varying from is to about one per cent on all
poin,s. except on some OF the non-specle pay
mo districts, where the rate, as in Tennessee, Is
as high as 3! per cent. Here in Baltimore Hir'
sinia money is IGl3 per cent discount. The
Exchanges have now generally reached a point
not to materially clog business. High rates
are no longer a sufficient excuse for debtors not
remitting their Indebtedness.
The demand for 3 per cent Treasury notes at
New York for custom.house purposesis good at
IG2 per cent discount. The absorption Tor this
purpose averages about $4,000 per day. The
new issue have not yet been received by takers
to any extent, and they are held at about 5ni
per cent premium.
The deliveries OF gold from California, and oil
foreign gold and silver from abroad, at Ne"
| York, since July |, amount to 1872, 95A, 539; same
| time last year, S29,99s ,957-increase, S3,256,

HENRY w. THOMAS, RsQ.-1 am, in general,
opposed to laudations In the newspapers OF
psr,icular individuals, holding office, for the
performance of their duties; because l know
how easily such notices are prepared to graf
iy the personal feelings of those who make
them. how little they are to be relied on, and
how distatesful they must often be to the
really worthy who are the objects of the
praise. These remarks do not apply to sew
eral articles speaking favorably of some OF
the Senators aud Delegates in the Legisla-
,nrs from this section of the state, which
have recently appeared-because IN their
coses | believe the compliments have been
deserved. | will, therefore, take occasion
n add 10 the list the name Of HENRY w.
THOMAS. ESQ, the Senator from this district,
whose diligence and devotion to the inter
ests OF his constituents, are worthy OF being
particularly commended. With much expe-
renee in the legislative halls, he exercises
his Judgment to the advantage of bis own
section Of country, as well as the state at large.
lie Justly exercises much influence IN the
body of which he is a member, and his opin-
ions always command respect. The value OF
experience in q legislator is not always recog-
pized. But in his case it has enabled him to
be useful to his constituents in time Of much
need. All the important measures, in which
We are interested, have received much aid
from his tact and abilities. As be merits the
award of "well done, good and faithful SER
ysn,"-so all will be disposed to unite in
the verdict. CAMERON.

at exhorbitant rates. In New York, money con-

COMMUNICATED

&c. c." in yesterdays Gazette, seems ra-
tber inclined to object to the amendments,
which it is reported have been inserted in
our charter, since it was sent to Richmond,
to be acted upon by the Legislature. Now,
whether these amendments have been made
in the regular way, or not, but there is only
one regular way, which must lave been
adopted it must strike every reasonable
man that they are most proper, and should
have been inserted long ago. At present, if
an officer should be elected by fraudulent
votes, there is no means provided for contest
ing his election; and as to the provision ex-
tending the qualification of voters, it must
strike all how unjust it is, as is the case now,
to deprive a man of his right to votefor general
officers of the corporation. or become a candi.
date for Office himself, no matter how well
qualified he may be, simfly because he has
not resided in the ward long enough to emit
tie him to vote for members of the city
Council. There may be a good reason
for requiring q residence Of thirty days
in a ward to qualify one to vote for mem
bers Of the City Council from that ward, but
this thirty day residence should not dis
qualify any from voting for general officers.
Residence in the city 10 not affected by the
mere removal from one ward to another, for
whether a man resides in one ward or anoth-
er he is no less a %citizeo, and should be entitled
to vote for the general officers. And with the
Charter as it is, We may at any time lose
good officer simply because he changes his
r.s;aanoa from one street to another, which II
in a different ward from the one from waich III
moved. The statement that these changes
have been made, is based, | learn, on m
but if they have not been made, they certain

The receipts Of beef cattle during Inc pas
week amounted 10 3,346 head, an increase OF
e3e head as compared with the receipts OF the
week previous. The exceedingly large supply
coupled with a very limited demand, caused a
decline in price of fully 3al cent. per pound,
the range being 7al0 cents, the latter price Pald
for the best descriptions only. Cows and calves
were plentiful, but dull of sale at s2aHSeo.C,
There was only a moderate demand Tor veal
