Saturdays New York papers thus refer to Fridays
Money matters;
In Money there Is no change whatever. Low rates
appear TO have become a fixed peculiarity Of the
present period, and 551f per cent for all first class
negotiations Is the rule of the market
The Exchange on Europe remains quiet, but dearth
Of mercantile bills enables Bankers to hold firm at
the stereotyped quotations-lOgssO9 for Sterling,
and 5,l3t5.2Ls for Francs. ... .....
The Baltimore EvcHinO Patriot of late date informs
to Money there:

good to fair indorsed, but not generally known III
to per cent per month. On dividend paying secu-
rifles there Is no difficulty In eecting loans at to
| Z per cent. for 60 to 90 days.
Fridays New Orleans Delta says of Thursday last;
| Business Of every kind is fast diminishing and
operations are becoming quito restricted in imam
cial and monetary circles. Offerings of Exchange
are very light, but they still prove ample for the de-
mand which shows no increase for either foreign
domestic. The only operation worthy of notice
which transpired to-day sale of bills for 900
bales OF cotton nt S.sc premium Quotations OF All

Clear Sterling Bills.....97gM and 90 Il cent prem.

| The Discount market continues exceedingly easy,
and the movement steadily tends to still lower
little better than nominal, and transactions in
socOnd-class and still lower grades show the anxiety
with which outside parties seek opportunity for
cOmmodation at the Banks Is insufficient TO absorb
the income of these institutions, and the market
| steadily inolines in favor of borrowers
