Yesterdays Louisville Courier observes
regarding Saturdays Provision market:
We quote country brands at SIG rs, the
market closing firm at our quotations. Ba-
con remains active. The principal business
in this article is done by the jobbers on
Southern orders, We quote TIC. for
Shoulders, 9H@9Ac. for rib Sides, l0Ac.
for clear Rib, 1024c. for Clear. Packers
would sell at &c. less. The market for bulk
Meats is very firm, with but a small demand.
We quote at 6H@sXc. for Shoulders and
Sides; heavy sales could be effected at q
fraction less. Lard is very firm, and prices
are rather higher. At the close Of the mar
ket, holders were firm at 9T@10c., at which
price sales were made.

Our Saturdays New York exchanges say
of Fridays Stock Market:
The Stock Market opened with some
weakness this morning, but recovered
strength between the Boards, and closed
steady. The amount of business done con.
tinues moderate. The feature of the morn
ing's business was a decline of 2 per cent. in
ViIginias and l per cent. in Tennessees
whether the decline had any thing TO do
with political movements did not appear.
II is certain that until the Border State Con-
ventions have adjourned sine die, the Stocks
of these States will %1uctuate in our market,
and prove insecure property to hold. The
speculative Stocks-New York Central,
Erie, Hudson, Harlem, Reading, Illinois
Central, Rock Island and the Michigan
Shares-all fell off A@26 per cent. at the
morning Board, but recovered alterward,
and closed better. At the close of the day
Illinois Central was q; Guaranteed, p;
Toledo, u; Michigan Central, Il; Reading,
close yesterday. The market left off steady.
Saturdays Herald observes respecting Fri
days New York Monetary matters:
Contrary to expectation. Exchange did
not advance to. day. Bankers are stubborn
at lO8, but there is no demand to speak of,
and for this week the hope of an advance to
a Specie. shipping point must be abandoned.
By the next arrival from England we shall
probably hear of a reduction in the Bank
rate of interest, which will probably require
Bills here to raise TO 100 before Specie can
be pToftably shipped from this side. The
81, GOO, coo in Gold which came by the Vigo
is understood, as we mentioned yesterday, TO
have come here on account of the Bank oil
Louisiana. Other New Orleans Banks are
supposed to have ordered Gold likewise, in
anticipation of the turn in the Domestic Elk
change.
The Money market continues extremely
EASY, The current rates for Call-lOans are
sac, and the same figures for irst-clas;
Paper, with a few rare exceptions at 4@4%
The complaint is still of the scarcity of Paper
There is a great deal of conversation about
the Loan, and the takers of the last Loan are
evidently anxious to get it about as cheaply
as they did that one, with a view to make the
same profit on a subsequent rise. Views
ranged 10 day from 90 to 95; the sizes o.
declined u this morning.
The Baltimore Money market is without
change. Capital is supplied on A No.
Paper at sac per cent, and the Banks dis
count with comparative freedom.
The Boston Banks are increasing theil
Specie rapidly, with some Sc. OOO,0 900 nov
in the vaults, and more coming. Money
continues to be easy, and rates are from AZ
to 9 per cent, the variation being on thu
grades of Paper offered.
Boston BooT AND SHOE MARKET. = Las
weeks Shoe and Leather Reporter state;
that there are no new features to notice il
the market, and a quiet season is TO be ex
pected the next three months. The Western
dealers have bought less than an average
quantity, and will want more, if inaocia
affairs improve, or a demand springs 10
sufficient to enable them to turn their sur
plus stock of grain into cash.
There is a limited call for goods suitable
for the New England trade, which is fair TO
The season. The manufacturer are curtail
ing operations very materially, and bu
small quantities of goods are making up
except 10 fill orders, a few of which com
from the large Western and Southern cities
The shipments by sea the last weel
amounted to 3,767 $40 to Philadel
phia, the remaining to Baltimore, Richmond
Norfolk, New Orleans, and Hayti. TIL
shipments by railroad amounted TO 8 II
