MOEETARY AND COMMERCIAL.



yesterday; most houses reporting financial
business quite dull, and others, again., more
active than for two days previous. so far
as we could learn, however from the general
expression of Third. street. there was little
movement in Money, and but limited in
quiry for Discount, either at Bank or in the
street. The means OF accommodation con-
tnued in excess of the requirements, and
good Paper or that so regarded, was still in
request, at the regular houses, at l0@l2 per
cent.
Eastern Exchange was steady at L02S
and H. and New Orleans inquired for at par
and Is premium buying and selling rate.
Gold was still scarce, and in demand at 9S9
40cj dealers offering A@30c., the latter for
round lots.
In Time. bills we heard of no transactions
of consequence. Uncurrent Money was un-
altered; Missouri still selling at lc., and
Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin at lLc. dis.
In regard to the failure of Josiah Lee &
Co, and Appleton & Co.. Baltimore, nothing
further has been heard. They do a large
business, having only small capital, and
will not probably effect any of the other
houses there TO any extent. The late pro-
tracted beer movement in stocks, in which
both firms are said to have been operating,
is supposed to have carried them down.
The New York dispatch to the Chamber
of Commerce yesterday, announced an i'm
provement in Breadstuffs and an advance in
all articles, but had no influence on our
market. The news was also encouraging
for Provisions, and the statement made thai

brls, and all the Beef IL 945 brls. The New
| Orleans telegram reported every article dull
Flour was still unsettled here yesterday,
and rates were irregular, with more dspoSi-
ton TO sell. The transactions reached ,245
brls. at rates varying from 81 80 to Sc.
Whisky was unchanged, and l,2O0 brls were
disposed ofat l6H@l65sc. Mess Pork was
in active demand, and all in the market-4OO
brs.-were sold at $l8. New mess, to be
delivered this month, sold at $l7 per brl.
Groceries were without alteration.
Very little Wheat was offering, though the
| demand was good. Only 300 bushels sold at
| 81 04 to 81 06 for prime red, and ST. 10 to
| 81 IL for prime white. Corn, Rye, and
| prime Barley continued firm. Butter and
Potatoes were dull, aud Cheese, in couse-
quence of the large supply, declined Nc. per
pound.
In the Hog market not much was done
! yesterday, but there was more disposition
on the part CT buyers to operate, though at
| prices below those of holders. The only
sales of which we could gain any knowf-
| edge, were 800 head averaging 266 lbs. net,

of cutting. 300 head heavy Hogs-we did
