The breadstuis movement is telling upon the ag-
gregate Of our export trade. The excess over last
year, since January /, is nearly ~ $50 900 Of dol
dolars-oyer 80 per cent. AT this rate the exports
from this port for the calendar year-exclusive of
spece-will fall but little short Of 100 900 900.
There Is no qhoiabie change in the money mar
Ret The brokers are supplied at 81 per cent;
10 faaSr, over 90 days to run, goes below per
cent, and only very choice grades as low as that.
The supply of choice paper continues small. The
Sub Treasury received large amount Of money
to.day-$54 ,73l, Of which $4,000 was from
duties dsbursed 1919 307 and held at the close Of
he day balance Of 81, 250, 447. The receipts som
duties show that the fall goods are beginning to
arrive freely.
The foreign mail for the Cunard steamer, which
caves Boston tomorrow for Europe, has been
rather light one, most people preferrng 10 wait
for the steamer Adrisc from this port ON Saturday.
One of the leading drawers put up his RATE to 10;
the general asking rates at the leading horses how
ever, were 1895 and 5.l32, and most of the actual
business in sterling done at g092. The market
evinces ca upward tendency, and drawers speak
confidently Of higher rates within few packets.
The excitement in the stock market noticed yes
terjay continued thsOughou. the day to-day, and
prices OF all descriptons-fro from State stocks to
railway shares-sold at an advance. The most
active stocks Of the Cay, however, wece the
Michigan shares the Central sold at SO, closing
5lg bid the guaranteed at ssI, closing ssh bid.
The advance in guaranteed Is understood TO be
due TO heavy purchases byysrties who have lately
made themselves acquainted with the value of the
property. Even at the present advance, the whole
stock of the concern, old and new, only stands at
80 900 900; 40 that surplus from ca, nngs of $780,
00O over and above the interest cn'the debt, would
amount, in reality, TO profit 81 ten per cent on
the stock. The second mortgage bonds advanced
to-day to 56a, at which price 'thcy are wanted.
Galena, Toledo, Rock Island ard Illinois Central
were all in request this morning at an sd-
vance; in the afternoon theyssell Of and closed
lower. Pacific Mail and Pasama were maintained.
New Torh Central touched 81, but fell back to $50.
There seems to be an impression that the dividend
which will be declared early next month-wi be
% per cont, though the earaings are said to show
net profit equal to g. The demand for bonds is ac-
tive and several descriptions which have lately been
dull, arc very lively, with upward tendency.

The California steamer which sails to-day takes
the mails as usual, though Commodore Vanderbilt
is not paid for it, II is, apparently piece of
mere berality on his part; for he is old enough TO
know that Congress will have little scruple in
cheating him out OF the $500 900 TO which the Pre-
sident and the Postmaster deem him entitled. BY
the time the bill is before the House TO pay him. IL
will probably he discovered once more that he is
a cor-air and pirate, and the overland mail com
pany will, perhaps get the money a reward for |
their virtue.
