II was authontatively announced that the new
| Russian loan would be introduced in few days by
| Messrs. Barring Brothers. It was expected TO
amount TO e. 900 600 sterling in a per cent stock.
The money market is, if anything, shade easier
today though the variation is SO slight as hardly
| 10 be worth mentioning. Some of the money dis
bursed in dividends and interest is re-entering the
market in search Of employment, and, in the alb
sence Of active demand, is not easy TO place at
| the quoted rates. Still brokers call money on
temporary loan worth six per cent? short first class
acceptances, SIX same quality of long paper, z;
second class paper, a a 10, DC. Next week
relaxation in the rates is generally expected,
hough we have yet 10 see how much money the
West will take from rs 70 move the crops, which
are now being harvested pretty fast. The Sub
Treasury lost money to-day; the receipts were
SIG ,195, Of which $l02 600 from customs; pay
ments $497 372 balance this evening, IS 437 1893.
There was comparatively little done in foreign
exchange to-day; tomorrow the bills for the Bre
men and Kangaroo, on Saturday, will be disposed
of. From present appearances it does not look as
though these steamers would take out much specie;
most of the available bullion by the last California
arrival went out in the steamers of last Saturday
The Asia yesterday took 1856, 900.
Il
| on the second call eyinced considerable strength,
| and was higher throughout the day. We note an
advance Of per cent in Rock Island, in Galena,
in guaranteed, in Central and nearly az much
in other stocks speculation being chiefly confined 10
| the Western shares. II seems evident that not
wths,anding the light business of the roads at pre-
sent, spectators have fixed their attention upon
the future, and are discountng in part the conse-
quences Of the large traffic which may be expected
this autumn. The advance in Gaena, in the face
Of decline Of $2l SAT on the June receipts, as
compared with June, 1859, and of tl2l 347or about
GO per cent-ss compared with the receipts of June,
1858, shows how strong the public confidence is in
the future. State stocks were inactive today, and
| there was little done in bonds. The attendance at
the board and the orders in the street were light as
usual after the holiday. This afternoon the
market was very firm, and stocks closed heavy
