Stocks at last appear to be giving way I'M

Western Bank Auditors, and they, too, fell
off; Virginias declined /, North C~arolinas,

destined to feel not only the general effects

tons of street spectators, assisted on the
one hand by the ease of Money, and on the
other by over sales by the bears, may for q
time bolster up the market, but the ultimate
result seems none the less certain. Between

Thursdays Tribune thus refers to Wednes-
days New York Monetary affairs:
Business in the streets very inactive. The
Uncurrent Money brokers are quiet nearly

having been sold and sent home, there is but
little material left to work upon. The bust

ness, which checks the making Of new com
mercial obligations, has so reduced the sup
plies of Paper that the note. brokers find but
little employment. Parties who employ
their funds in Demand Loans also complain
of the difficulty Of finding good borrowers,
and of the low rates Of interest they are
obliged 70 accept, and Paper. buyers find the
same difficulty in the profitable use OF their
means. The best signatures at and under
sixty days, two names, will go at Z per cent,
and in some cases at 6@6X per cent. Very
good paper goes at 1902 per cent and single
name still higher. Demand Loans are 496
