MONETARY AND OOMMEROIAL.



The condition of the Money market yes
terday underwent no special change FROM
that we mentioned in yesterdly's issue.
Currency seemed more plenty with several
Bankers than it was last week, but there was
no surplus, and rates were unchanged-l0@
12 per cent. at the regular Banks for prime
Paper.
Business was rather quiet in Third-street,
and there was no particular stir in any thing.
Eastern Exchange was called steady in
some quarters, and rather heavy in others,
the rats being A@2s buying and 45@K
premium selling.
Gold, New Orleans Exchange and Uncur-
rent Money were unaltered.
The New York news received on Change
yesterday announced a further decline in
Flour of &C., which had an unfavorable eff
feet upon the market here where this staple
was very dull and quotations nominal. Su-
perfine could not be sold better than 81 Is,
and not even at that price for any large lots.
Whisky was dull and unsettled at lower
prices with sales of ], ,l4l barrels at ITO
1711c.
Provisions remained quiet, mess Pork be-
ing in fair demand at $l7 81, and Bacon
Sides at 1880, &c. above the views of
buyers. Wheat was dull and heavy and
prices declined. Corn, Rye and prime Barley
were steady, and Oats were dull, without
change.

Yesterdays Louisville Courier observes,
in regard to Provisions on Saturday:
Ths market for mess Pork is extremely dull, ana
to-day decline of SOC. per brl. was established,
clned prices There is buta small demand for it to
i'll southern orders, and holders disposed TO get
rid Of what they now have on hand. There is bet
| ter demand for Bacon, and the market closed firm
and buoyant The stock on hand is light. especially
Sides and an advance of &c. was established at the
close clear Sids and some few small sales were
made at lie, the advanced prices. Shoulders were
sold at q15c rib Sides at l2l4c., aud clear rib at
l2Ac Orders from the SOuth are coming in more
freely, and i is the general opinion that the stock
now on hand will not be sufficient to meet the de-
mand, until new Bacon is ready for the market
There is fair demand for Hams, wi h sales at I4c
for plain canyased, and l415c. for sugar. c ured.
Lard is firm, with sales at l3l9c.
The market for Hogs is dull, and we hear of no
offerings. Packers would not be willing to make
any contracts at present, prefering to wait until
the slaughtering season commences. We quote the
| market dull, at So gross for well fatted hogs.
AT st. Louis purchasers are holding of, OF
| only buying few small lots. A small sale
was made there yesterday at $5 75, Sc and
Sc 25 net, dividing on 175 and 200 pounds
Packing there will not be commenced until
some time in December.
The imports of Dry Goods at New York
last week were, entered at the port, $l,OS7,-
073; thrown on the market, $945, 900; since
January ], entered at the port $S9, ,040, ,554;
thrown on the market, $S9, ,3Sl, ,579.
In New York there is no change in Money,
which continues easy at 6per cent. on Call
and 61897 on prime Paper.
The Eastern mail having, as usual, failed
last evening, we are without late advices
from the Atlantic cities.
