The New York herald., 1860-09-12

The aggregate export of the week is swellsd
by the large movement in miscellaneous articles,
of which the South American and Asistic countries
are taking large quantities. Since the sailing of
the allied fleets to the coast Of Northern China
our exports Of domestic goods have greatly
fallen of The news from Europe Is calculated to
moderate the export of breadstuffs, and to check
the speculative movement in our food market-two
things which are quite desirable at present. This
morning, on the Corn Exchange, prices were lower
and the market was dull.
Money is reported easier. Several private bank
ers are lending at 7 still, but the rate Is main.
tanned with difficulty, and choice short acceptances
go at 6a readily enough. BY the end of the week
1t likely enough that the standard rate in the
loan market, and at the discount houses for short
prime paper will be 9 per cent. The receipts
for duties continue moderate. They were to-day
sl4l O0o the total receipts being STAG 1885, the pay
ments, sl2l 027; the balance this evening" $751;.
O76.
Foreign exchange continues dull at our last quo
tations, viz: lO9i for sterling, and 5.l3i Il3
for frances sales of first class bills are occasionally
made below these rates. The importers are so easy
in their relations with their European friends that
they better able than they have been for years
to dictate terms to the foreign bankers. For the
present, from the indications of the day, the 6ow
of specie to Europe win be moderate for days,
and bankers bills must be covered with CONNER
cial exchange.
The activity in the stock market continues, and
we note further advance in prices The most
popular stock Of the day was New York Central.
which advanced from s6i at the close yesterday to
at fvo IN. do nd ot 4 clo NJ h.
siness hours. The earnings for August were
$es9 l24 against 1891 9ls in August 1885, increase,
$97 POS considerably more than was expected.
We hear that every car on the road is fully en-.
ployed, and that there is not rolling stock enough
to do the freight and passenger business which
offers. Large purchases Of stock are said to have
been made lately by partesa Albany; their friends
here talk Of par for the stocks before January
next. Illinois Central was active, and advanced
at the morning board; the closing bid was s7i,
against 81 yesterday. The last quotation In Eng
land by telegraph, l4A discount, equal to about
9li here. The first weeks business this month il
said to show large increase. Galena, Toledo and
Rock Island were all higher and In active demand.
The first week on the Toledo gave SIS ,00e, against
GA ,l59 last year; increase, $3.50. A few more
such weeks viii enable the company to resume
dividends. The first week on the Galena is
said to show over 10000 increase, though last
September was not very good month. Michigan
Southern continues TO advance; the company
receives daily communications from the second
mortgage bondholders, expressing their satisfao
ton with the proposed arrangement. The busi :
ness done In bonds was moderate. United States
fyes are lower on the announcement Of the new
loan. Everybody seems to think Mr.. Cobb's ad-
vertisement the most remarkable Of his financial
exploits. The closing quotations OF the day
