Mondays Tribune says of the Monetary
Market in New York:
The Money Market has undergone no SUBJ
stantial change during the week. The evil
dences of plethorian supply multiply from
day 10 day, but rates of interest have reached
a point of depression beyond which the
market, if it sinks at all, goes at a slow pace.
The most important feature of the last week
has been, perhaps, the better degree of con
fidenee shown in Paper hitherto rendered
almost unstable by the high rates quoted,
rates equivalent to a refusal of market faeil-
tiles. The scarcity of strictly first class sig
natures, and the more active competition of
the Banks, has diffused more liberal feeling
in the classification of credits, and now good
second. class names can be passed at from 8
to 10 per cent, which but recently went at
from is to IS. On call, the range is from 5
to 6 per cent. The business of the Clearing
house to-day was $l9, $50, 208 Ss.
In Foreign Exchange there is no move
ment Of importance. Sterlings bills are
quoted by the leading Bankers l07%@l08,
but we hear of sales at the lower quotations,
and there is but little inquiry even at that
The tendency of the market is evidently to
lower rates, and this has been more decided
since the reduction in the discount figure oi
the Bank of England was announced.

COOPERS STUFF - continued dull
market and prices little better than nominal.

EGGS-A good demand, and, with a mod
crate demand, prices are higher, closing at

CANDLES AND SOAP-There is con-
tinued fair demand for Star Candles, at full
prices. Soap unchanged. We continue our

Gen. Thomas and Gen. Fremont

From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Slowly and reluctantly we are forced to the
conviction that Gen. Fremont is unequal to
the command of the Western army. The re-
port of Adjutant General Thomas, which we
publish this morning, settles the question in
our Judgment We have read this document
with close scrutiny, but we have been unable
to find any escape from the conclusion that
the great Military Department of the West
had better be transferred to more competent
hands. We have read also, the elaborate re-
view of the report in tn New York Irib une
of yesterday, but can only see that this will
ling defender Of Gen. Fremont labors and
staggers without avail under the crushing
weight of the facts recited by Gen. Thcma
1t affords us no pleasure to make these re
marks, for we are among those who claimed
that Fremont should not be condemned upon
irresponsible assaults. *
Gen. Fremonts energy appears to be Who'll
ly spasmodic; very active when of little or no
avail, and entirely quiescent when most
needed. We have instances Of the latter sort
in the cases of the failure to support Lyon
and Mulligan. He was advised by General
Hunter to telegraph to St,lrgis to hasten to
the relief of Mulligan, but did not send the
order until three days afterwards, when it
was too late, as Price had in the meantime
taken possession of the north bank of the
Missouri, which defeated Sturgis' movement
Examples Of vigor and activity, when they
were of no avail, are to be found in the Elm
possible orders given to Pope and Hunter,
after Price had escaped, and had placed hun
dred miles of territory and deep river be-
tween his marauding band and the forces of
the Western Department.

The art of preventing, curing or mitigating the
diseases of horses feet is of greater Importance
in connection with shoeing than most men are
aware of. Even among dealers and good judges
of horses there is a criminal carelessness about
the management of the foot, not realizing that
most of the ailments of the breasts and shoulders
are the natural results of defective and distorted
feet The sympathy between them is of such
nature that the cannot suffer without the other
being affected.
A man. for instance, has fine horse that he
wishes to get shod For convenience or friend
ships sake, he takes him to mullet-head who
hasn't brain enough to reason from cause to ef
feet and knows no more about the anatomy OF the
foot to be shod than the horse that carries it. Or
perchance, he may be man of intelligence and
experience, and what is commonly termed good
horse sheer. Still, without knowledge of the
finely arranged and elastic structure of the foot,
his experience avails him little, as it is just as
liable to be wrong as otherwise, and perhaps the
very first shoeing lays the foundation for con-
tracted feet, corns. and shrunken shoulders,
diseases which, in nine cases out of ten, are the
results Of bad shoeing.
have employed quite number of horse sho-
ers, and never more than one in ten have had
that had not more or less erroneous practices bnt
most generally, their attention being called to it,
and philosophical reason given, they were free to
admit their error but they chad never thought of
it before.' And there is where the grand diff
Guilty lies for l am sure no thinking man who
will take the pains to dissect and infinitely exam
inc the foot of the horse but say that it is one
of the incest arrangements he ever saw, and that
it requires man of thought, as we'll as of skill
and practice upon correct theory, to do it justice
Many smiths have not the tools with which it is
poss ible to do decent job, and especially under
such circumstances it is easier to slight the foot
and leave it half paired, until the elasticity of the
foot is entirely destroyed and the horse begins te
stumble. Many fine spirited horse is forced te
travel when every step produces pain.
Therefore, think the who would be ar
efficient and successful manager of shoeine
shop, should not only be man of principle, (
thinking man, practical man, and an admirer O
good horses but he should understand the horses

The FEE1lNG-The excitement, yesterday,
consequent on the removal of Maj. Gen. Ere
mont, was intense. With few exceptions il
was matter of general regret that the gal
,ant Path Finder should have been superce-
ded while on the eve of a great battle. There
are those in our city who express their I'M
qualified belief, that he has been made the
victim of parties who were jealous of his in
creasing popularity. Be that as it may, it IS
the duty of every good citizen to stand by the
government, right or wrong. To act other
wise, would be placing ourselves side by side
with the accursed rebels who are now striving
to destroy us. One satisfaction remains to
the friends of Fremont-if he was right the
time may come when the people can endorse
him and his acts, at the ballot box. Mean
while let us lend every energy to the support
of the Administration.
