In the afternoon she suspension of the
Banks of Philadelphia was reported, but the
effect of this announcement was counter
acted by the New Y ork dispatch mentioning
decided improvement in Money, and an
advance of sos per cent. in the Stock
Market. Among the Bankers and Merchants
there was better feeling at three o'clock,
and the Produce Market was favorably af-
fected.
In our Monetary market there was no
special change yesterday. Though it re-
manned close, the demand was less than on
Tuesday, and the applications for loans were
light at all the Discount-houses rates ruling
at l2@l5 and ls per cent. forprime Paper
Unsettled as Financial affairs are else
where, they seem stable enough here, and
no one anticipates trouble with our Bankers,
so long as the people remain as free from
panic and alarm as they have up to this
time. Our moneyed institutions are stronger
at this season than at any other, and are
abundantly able to weather storm, unless
they are imprudently run upon and asked to
pay all they owe in day.
Eastern Exchange was in more demand
| and irmer yesterday, but rates were unal-
tered, those on Baltimore and Philadelphia
being nominal, and nothing doing on those
points. The buying figure on New York was

Gold'was in brisk retail request, and the
supply early exhausted. The regular SELL
ing rate was l0l &c. PREM, but some of the
small Brokers charged 3@5c. prem. for small
lots. .......r ...
