CsEsczxr OFFICE No. 70 Camp street.
Monday Evening, April IT, 1860.
The general money market to-day opened with
heavy offerings or calls for discounts at the banks
discounting On the street It was rather quiet.
Some small sales of paper Of tp-top signatures
were made at Q Get, and some good at 10 Get.
The movements do not indicate any increase In
rates, nor any pressure. Money is worth just what
people choose to pay for it, and, with good secu-
rity, it is available at most all timesf not at one
price, It is at another, though there may be occa
sions when the largest dealers in and buyers Of
paper have nothing over.
The most important attraction in noneyed and
stock circles to-day the election Of Directors
Of the Jackson Railroad Company. II has been
known for some weeks that effort would be
made to Dust the Directory which has been in Office
for the past two years. It was not supposed that
it would be attended with any degree Of success.
The votes deposited, however, tell different tale
altogether. The Mayor of the city, in his official
capacity, cast his vote for the outs; so did Gov
ernor Moore, in behalf of the State and 80, we
learn, did the Governor Of Mississippi. Whether
the protest will be deemed of any consideration, is
matter to be decided by the courts. Though it
ia believed the best plan will be to allow the ticket
which receives the most votes to quietly assume
the reins of office.
1t is hardly necessary to allude to the many
charges brought against the last years Directory.
Ii is reasonable to suppose that the course they
have pursued has been governed by the highest re-
gard for the road and its interests. At tie same
time, the paying interest at the rate of IL get. PEI
annum on ther debts of the road, according to the
settlement made with Messrs. Schroeder y Co. last
year, does not jibe with the views of many stock
holders. As we have not the report of expendi-
lures for the last year before uswe
not join in with the charges of extravaganza and
misapplicaton Of the funds; we can tell better on
this point when we are furnished with the figures.
The decree was, however, carried out to-day that
the ms have to retire, and the outs, among whom
we observe many names of wealth. standing and
independence, are to come in. BIT whatever may
be the COURSE it is sincerely hoped that the law or
courts will not be appealed to to determine the le
| gality Of the election held to-day.
| The following figures denote the result of the
election held yesterday for Directors of the New
Orleans, Jackson and Great Northern Railroad:
New Orleans daily crescent. [volume] ([New Orleans, La.]) 1851-1866, 1860-04-17

The votes given by the Mayor of the city, on the
part of the city, and the Governor Of the State
not included, as the decision is so unanimous they
will not be required. They were handed in, but
not counted. Both parties, the Governor and
Mayor, voted for the successful ticket.
The Exchange market opened this morning I'M
der q very moderate feeling. The counter rate at
the banks for checks on New York was steady at
prem. Outside double Al sight drafts ruled at
from par@1-l6 dis, the market seeming, towards
5 o'clock, to be in favor Of drawers. We heard Of
no transactions in Time Bills, and quote sixty days
sight at la@l8 down to la@1s dis. In Foreign
there were some sales at lUs@l0s4 for clear bills,
and lo7a@1O7i for standard names with bills Of
lading attached. True, there were some document
bills, otherwise called under the tiger. which were
to be had at 1O6a@107, and so there were sixty
days on New York to be had at from Iat02 get
dis that is, fbuster exchange. There were
some transactions in Francs at 5:17a on Paris di.
rect, and other movements at lower rate, say
5:2565:2O, but all for small sums.
In Stock we learn Of the sales Of 40 shares
Bank of New Orleans, in five parcels, the major
part at par and two lots at fraction over.
