in New York at midnight.
The Tlmes's city article dated Thursday
evening, says:
The reduction in the rate of discount is
perfectly in accordance with the indications
furnished in the last Gazette returns, and
although the heavy character of our grain
importations, and the prospect of some tenn
porary confusion in the commerce and fl
nances of the United States, from the politi-
cal panic, preclude the possibility of an ear
ly abundance of the supply of money, there
is every reason for confidence that the mar
ket for the next month will be free from in
convenient pressure or violent huctuation.
The English funds opened this morning
with a firm appearance, and manifested
great steadiness throughout the day. The
discount establishments have reduced their
rates from II to per cent. for money on
CALL and from to 4 for seven days no
tice. The Government Stock Banks have
also lowered the rate of interest from 4 ] to
4 per cent. There were no operations for
gold at the Bank to-day

REMOvAL.-We notice that the Savings
Bank of the Messrs. COPELAND and also the
General Insurance Agency of Messrs. CorE-
LAND & NExsEN, have been removed to Fos-
ter's Block, directly opposite the old stand.
(No. First street). This change of loca-
tion has been made necessary by the already
large and fast increasing business of these
firms. We are glad to notice these evi-
dences of prosperity of our fellow-citizens,
and take pleasure in saying to our readers
that if they have any Banking or Insurance
business to transact, they will find the gen.
tlemen composing these firms prompt and
reliable in all their dealings

EVANSVILLE BENEVOLENT SoCIETY.-We
are requested to announce meeting of this
Society this morning at lO4 o'clock, at the
Old School Presbyterian Church, on Vine

This Society has changed its character
from an exclusively ladies' association to one
which invites the membership, assistance,
and support of all classes of the community,
both male and female. The meeting this
morning is for the purpose of more fully
perfecting the organization and working op-
erations Of the Association, and it is impor-
tant that all benevolent persons should at
tend. We shall have more to say of the So
ciety, its aims and wants, again.

THE CITY MARKETs.-Some complaint
having been made by laboring men of the
late arrangement for holding the morning
markets from7 to 10 o'clock, the Council has
changed the time of opening to six o'clock,
as published by us. For fear some may
have overlooked the change we now allude
to it. The new arrangement will no doubt
suit those for whom seven o'clock was too
late an hour for opening, and will be as
favorable for as good an attendance from
the country. See city advertisement for
the Market arrangements entire.

WASHINGTON, Dec. l2.-The committee of
thirty-three bad a meeting to-day, and some
discussion. The talk was generally con-
ciliatory. The committee meets again to-
morrow, when propositions for a compro-
mise will be put in. Hawkins of Fla. was
the only absent member Of the committee
Boyce of S. c. was present as a spectator
only.
An eX-member Of Congress from n.
c., on motion of Mr. Wilson, was elected
clerk. Good feeling prevailed, and as the
territorial question is the only one at issue,
a satisfactory result Is generally hoped for.
Riggs Il Co. express the opinion that the
treasury notes will not be at a discount, as
suggested recently, but that they will be at
a premium. The reported appointment of
Philip Francis Thomas as Secretary of the
Treasury and its confirmation surprises
every one.
An effort will be made in the House to-
morrow to release the bidders for the loan
under the act Of June last. They have lost
heavily, already, through the action of
Cobb and other disunionists, connected with
the Federal administration. Until these
bidders are released the Treasury notes, it is
thought, will avail but little.
Application was made by South Carolina
to Secretary Floyd TO purchase a quantity of

sell the public arms, except those condemn
ed on inspection.
1t is reported currently that Trescott, the
assistant Secretary Of State, has resigned,
but it is not authenticated. If so, great
trouble will arise, as Secretary Cass knows
