MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL.
Financial AaaIrs.

In Monetary matters yesterday, no import
AMI feature was developed. The market re-
maincd quiet with a better demand at some
ofthe Houses, although Currency was gener-
ally plenty and in excess of the legitimate
inquiry. Rates of interest continued easy
at l0@l2 per cent. for all the prime Paper
offered, of which there is now much less than
is usually seen at this season. The City De-
posits are large for October, aud balances
appear to be accumulating with nearly all
the Bankers.
Eastern Exchange was still in demand at
2s buying and a premium selling; some of
the Bankers having paid 40c. for frst-cass
checks on Philadelphia and New York. Bos-
ton and Baltimore were heavy, but very lit
tie was offered. Drafts on the aforementioned
city were purchased at 30c., and could not be
sold higher, unless to some one who wished
to use funds there.
. The rates Of Gold remained at 4 and "a
premium, no one wishing it except for ship
ment.
The buying rate of New Orleans Exchange
was lower, owing to the improvement of
New York Checks in the South. Dealers
were irregular as to price; but Bankers sig
natures were saleable at par.
Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin Notes were
still quoted at discount. Nochange in any

changed and steady. Wheat and Rye were

and unaltered.
Hogs are without change, and prices rule
as before at Sc so per loo lbs. net-with
holders for those averaging 200 lbs, for
November and early December delivery

The rally which commenced yesterday afternoon in
the Stock market continued with great yigor this
morning. The decline had been too sharp to con-
tnue, aad the low quotations rapidly touched

mission houses were fully employed, and great df-
bear obbers resisted the turn not with the same
courage as yesterday, and with no effect.
The transactions throughout the list were TO a
very large extent, and well distributed and the i'm
