The Message of the President of the United
States was received and distributed in Wall
street about two o'clock this afternoon. His
views on disunion were variously con-
strued-by some parties as wanting in force
and directness, and thereby scarcely up to
the emergency; and by others, on the other
hand as sufficiently firm and dignifed for
the present attitude of the question, and yet
so indulgent and conciliatory toward South
Carolina as probably to lead to further de-
liberation and delay on the final or separate
action of that State. The market for Stocks
which had been weak on the morning sales
compared with the closing prices of Monday
afternoon, was lower at the Second Board
with some disposition to press sales. 1t sub
sequently improved u per cent, on the
breaking up of the session, but closed irreg-
ular, and, as most of the Brokers quote it.
with heavy feeling. The stormy and dis
agreeable weather contributed some thing
no doubt, to the doubt and gloom which, in
the imagination at least ofa good many ofthe
operators, tillrestupon the political agitation
ofthe country. This feeling, however, was far
from being general, the closing bid for New
York Central, the barometer of the Share
market being rs per cent. on any part of
1000 shares, deliverable at the option of the
seller in 30 days.
Tuesdays New York Money market is
mentioned in Wednesdays Times:
The Money market to-day was rather
more active at Bank. The offerings were
larger at most of the Discount sessions held
this morning, though made up in part cf
Paper OF less pressing claim for accommo-
datiOn than the earlier offerings under the
late measure of expansion. The regular
dealers, who confine their applications to
their immediate wants, or to preparations for
payments soon to mature, are generally
accommodated, provided their securities are
short and unquestionable. No promise is
implied or attempt made under the present
liberal arrangement between the Associated
Banks to carry doubtful or second-class
credit through the pressure. The terms of
Discount outside of Bank continue high,
l2@l5 per cent. on the very best short Bills.
The Exchange market for the africa, to-
morrow, winds up tame and rather unsatis-
factory to drawers and sellers. The accounts
from New Orleans continue bad, and the
Money and Exchange pressure there is
reported to have reached something like a
crisis to-day, calling for general meeting
Of the Bankers to devise the means of relief.

lO5 for Banks and Bankers; lO2@I03 for
merchant Bills.
