The in specie fully large was looked for;
less gold must have gone to the interior than imagined
The decrease in loans Is not quite fully up 10 the public
expectation. 1t was asserted in the street by bank
authorities that the decline in the loan column would be
fully equal to two millions of dollars However such
Il IT, the statement a satisfactory one and the banks
continue the policy indicates all will go well with them
But there should be expansion.
We are enabled to quote decidedly easier money
ke among brokers' Money has been loaned 70 day at
az per cent and we hear Of offers below that figure At
the banks there is still disposition TO maintain the rates.
but some Of the enterprsng institutions have been
in the market today seeking investments at very mode
figures. need hardly be remarked that the appa-
rent impossibity Of maintaining money at rate neigh
boring per cent arises less from the superabun
dance Of the supply than from the absence OF demand
with the exception of the dry goods merchants the other
importers doing moderate business that they need
very little aid from the banks AS for the brokers' is
only when they buying freely for outside clients that
their demands for money become pressing at the present
time no buying stocks to speak Of the brokers
refusing cheap loans not because they DEAR
but because they don't happen to want money at any
price. These arc the reasons why money, after
rising TO an average Of ca per cent, has
now declined 10 Al 81. No one who bestows
careful glance surrounding events can regard this
ieihIte aS permanent. IL Is eNluenty reaction
from the late se and must soon be followed by fresh
epasm During the week ending with last Saturday, the
prevalence Of westerly winds retarded the arrival Of
whole ieet Of merchant vessels laden with European
goods; hence, the duties, instead Of amounting to mill
hon. as they should average season. were less than
half million, and the banks much the richer This
or next week we shall have an enormous number of ar
rivals and the amount paid for duties will probably ex-
coed million a week Within the ensuing three weeks
moreover the banks will be called upon TO pay IS goo CO.,
the balance Of the loan Several new loans some from
States some from corporations, will likewise prosentv
come into the market Should Congress- suspendbe pre
sent tariff the payments for duties would be much the
larger Altogether signs not wanting show that we
shall have before many weeks capse much more active
money market than existed ten days since and prdenty
managed institution will suffer the present accidental re.
in rates to betray IL into the deuson that money
is again going to rule permanently below six per cent
There very little doing in foreign exchange; bankers

cept slight perturbation last September until the 9Th Of

reached 00an expansion Of $35 900 in less
than fifteen months during what has generally been con-
sdered period OF inactivity and business sagnation Now
that we have reached the time when trade and commerce
recovering from the paralysis Of 1857 show signs Of re-
vva and activity, we enter upon another contraction,
