New York Financial Matters.

New York, August 2S.-The week closed on
much higher Stock market, with evidences Of in-
oreasing speculative spirit in the railroad shares
in which the transactions are on large scale.
1t is worthy of special note that the buoyancy
shows itself quite as strongly in doubtful
values as in those having intrinsic worth. The
rise Is greatest in Pacific Mail, Galena, Rock
Island, Toledo and Michigan Central. The
first is 3 per cent. above the quotations Of Fri
day noon. The rest l per cent. Hudson,
Harlem preferred, Recding, Michigan, Southern
guaranteed, and Panama, are each n per cent.
better. The bank shares were in rather better
demand, and most descriptions are quoted
higher. There was no particular change in
the State stocks and railroad bonds. OF the
former, Virginia Skies fell q. .a..
The Money market, during the week, has
ruled very uniform, and tho supply Of capital
seeking temporary employment has been on
the increase, and the call ratio is 5H@6 per
cent, chiefly at the outside figure, but discounts
have not undergone similar change; the best
60 and 80 days paper, not being negotiable
under per cent. The assortment of long pa
per in the market has much improved during
the week. Unmistaknble evidence of increased
activity in commercial circles appears on all
sides, and the tone of the produce market has
improved during the week. .,
Exchange on London closed dull and easier,
leading drawers accepting 100H. The princi-
Pile business for this mail has been in francs at
5121S at sight for round sums. The export Of
bullion on Saturday includes nearly $5OO,OOO
in silver, which is becoming every year more
general article of merchandise. The City o.
Baltimore took out upward of 100000 specie
and the Vanderbilt nearly 100000. The
weekly bank statement is expected to show
about the same as last week on the specie aver
age. The loans have been increased probably
S5OO,O0O. ,.
Mr.. Charles Moran has resigned the Presi'
deney Of the Erie Railroad. His resignation
was accepted by the Board on Saturday.
Since the first board, stocks were excited
with largo business at constantly improv
ing prices. New York Central sold freely
closing at 745s@7434; Rock Island at 65M@
66; Galena So, and Toledo "a. Sales of l,OOl
shares Central; 300 Galena; 1850 Toledo ant
Rock Island were made. The rapid rise ha
been too much for the bears and more failure
have occurred; nor do the bears appear t.
have much courage left. The city is crowded
with strangers, and, since the Crystal Palac
year, was never SO full. The hotels are full t
Overlooking, and the most uncomfortabl
lodgings which landlords can offer are at
premium. Nine-tenths of all the stranger
are from the North and South, showing tina
trade from those sections will be larger thai
has been expected. ..

Later from Africa.

Advices from Sierra Leone to the 2lstof June,
state that the yellow fever and smallpox have
been rigging there most fearfully, and have
carried of nearly all the European population,
besides hundreds of the blacks.
Mr.. 0ldHeld, wel-kuown in Liberia, senior
partner Of the house of 0dfeld, Evans & Co.,
Of Freotown, died on the 23d ultimo.
William j. Smith, the supercargo of the
schooner Exchange, Of Baltimore, had furnished
the Liberia Herald with the following:
Her Britannia Mojesty's brig Heron was cap
sized in tornado on the 18th of May, about
two hundred miles from Sierra Leone. The
only survivors were the captain and twenty
seaman, out of the whole ships crew. A bark
of about four hundred tuns was carried into
Sierra Leone, May A, having been captured
by the Heron in about one degree north lati-
tude, having neither papers nor colors. She
was taken about the 18th of April. Out of the
twenty souls saved from the Heron, it is sup
posed four were q part of the slavers crew.

The City Of Washington at Cape Race,

NRw YORK, August 27.--Tho screw steam
ship City Of Washington, from Liverpool on the
18th inst, and Cork on tho 18th, was boarded
by the news-boat of tho Associated Press off
Cape Race, at half-past two O'Clock, on Thurs
day afternoon. -,
Her news had not reached Sackville at eight
o'clock last evening, and the presumption is
that tho report is withheld, as usual, by the
Nova Scotia Telegraph Company; but as the
Newfoundland Company is about to dsconnect
their cable from tho Nova Scotia shore and
carry it over to Prince Edwards Island, as
originally intended, thus passing around and
avoiding Nova Scotia, the public may reason
ably hope to be relieved at an early day from
the outrageous conduct of the Nova Scotia tel
egraphers.
The America was boarded off Cape Race on
Wednesday by the news-boat and her news
was Immediately forwarded to Port Hood, and
there handed over to the Nova Scotia line. and
which would have been forwarded to New York
in ample time for publication in Thursday
mornings journals if the Nova Scotia Company
had done its duty; but such a course would
have deprived the telegraph managers of the
opportunity Of favoring the news speculators'
report Of the Amerjca's news, the important in
teligence was allowed to rest at Port Hood
until after the America had arrived at Halifax,
and her news had been dispatched to Sackyille
by express.
The screw steamship City of Manchcster,
which left New York for Liverpool on Sat
urday, was boarded by the agent of the Asso-
ciated Press off Cape Race, at half-past four
o'clock yesterday afternoon, and Captain
Kennedy was bountifully supplied with the

Charles Mackay on Boston ians.

CHARLES MAokAY gets of the following about
tho capital of New England: "BoSton is the
great metropolis of lecturers, Unitarian preach
ers and poets. Perhaps for poets it would be
better to say rhymers or versifiers, and make
the correction accordingly. The finest churches
in the city-with the tallest and handsomest
spires, and the most imposing fronts and por-
ticoes, belong to the Unitarians. Lecturers
have been so richly endowed by the Lowell be-
quest, that the Bostonians, ovor-b lectured,
often experience feeling Of nasuea at the very
suggestion Of lecture, or worse still, of series
of them. In walking along Washington
street and meeting gentlemanly looking per-
son, with decent coat aud clean shirt, the
traveller may safely put him down as either o
lecturer, Unitarian minister or poet; posi-
bly,, the man may be, Cerberus-like, all three
Mt once. In Boston the on,p Lies upon every
respectable person to prove that ho has moi
written comet, preached sermon, or deliv-
erod lecture; and few thero are above the
station of the lowest kind Of handicraftmeu
who could lay their hands upon their hearts
and plead not guilty to one or tho other Of
these charges"

The Great Eastern.

The steamship Great Eastern will not leave
for this country until the 18th Of September.
1t was originally designed that, on the trial
trip, an extensive party should be passengers.
The programme was to land at Portland, visit
the principal places Of distinction in the Bast,
cross the Allegheny Mountains, examine the
working of the "Caloric in the office of the
PENNY PRESS, Mammoth Cave, Minnehaha
Falls, Niagara, and return. We have some
idea of accepting the offer Of two state-rooms
on board, for the round trip, and if so, look out
for the "items" in the PENNY Press.
