noop. a decline of 2 cent during ths day. Sales
were made At 20 go while the cash price raled at a.
difference seldom witne ssed in stock operations One
cause Of the weskne.s day is no doubt the adver
tisenent of a reduction IN the rates of passage
by Vsnderbll.s line, fact significant of the deter
mined character Of the opposition. Between the two
lines the pubic will have the advantage of caesp r,es

The business at the Clearing House was $l9, ,29S 74G.
The Thrdsvenue Railroad Company has declared
dividend Of s. 50 per share payable on the 9th inst
The Irving Insurance Company asemi-apnual dividend
of y cent, payable on demand. The Money market
on call cor tnues to work little easier and We hear OF
an occasional transaction on Government loan as low
as 4a4l T. cent, but the current rates are 5d6 e
cent. The supply comes mainly from private cspi-
talists, the banks not being free lenders on
call, as they can do rather better on paper.
The Shoe and Leather Bank has disbursed consider
ably more than it called in, aud the disturbance this
account, as well as by the payments on the Govern
ert loan passing away. Money is abundant at the
advanced rates. Paper goes at 81 al y cent, with
but little at the lowest rate. Messrs. Morse Co. are
buying Dubuque City Scrip. Treasury Notes are
offered freely in large lots at cent discount We
hear Of nothing doing privately in Government losu
but the market is steady at lO2i At this price is
a much better REMIT to London than sterling at
1901. About 600 in gold went from here for the
Cur arder, TO leave Boston tomorrow.
The tone of the private letters by the Asia Is ad
verse to that of the newspaper accounts, and indicates
cot tnusrce of peaceable relations between the Con-
tirentsl powers. We have letters from the high
est financial authorities in London and Paris, which
state that the public mind is resumiDg que. feeling,
and that confidence has revived.
The following are the Currency, Land Warrant and
Specie quotations for the week corrected for from
the rates current at the Banking Office of Messrs.
Thompson Brothers:
