before, to the absence Of any brisk demand.
The receipts of Currency and the pay
ments are both light, but the former usually
exceed the latter, and consequently the stock
is gradually increasing. Any large calls for
Money would in a few days render the mar
ket very stringent; and this demand is likely
to be made at any time.
Eastern Exchange, as respected the in-
ouiry therefor, was somewhat irregular, some
dealers calling it very firm at u premium,
and others but moderately SO. The demand
was equal to the supply at most of the
houses, and dealers often paid q on New
York, though "a premium was the rate on
Boston and Philadelphia. Baltimore was in
better request at u discount@par buying
and u premium selling
Gold was in improved request at 55@A
premium, dealers asking the latter price gen.
orally. New Orleans Exchange was firm at
q premium for Sight, and IL per cent. per
annum for Time-blls. Western Uncurrent
Money was heavier and higher in some in
stances; no Banker, unless he had an order,
purchasing Missouri, Illinois or Wisconsin
better than 6H discount while the general
rate for small sums was discount.
The New York Stock market was buoyant
yesterday, and ppices 1@3 per cent. higher.
Flour was better here, with some demand,
and rates were triAe higher, the sales
reaching 1900 brls. at 81 55@4 go for super
fine. Whisky was firm; the demand con-
tinuing in excess of the receipts. Red
Wheat was in good demand, and holders
asked an advance of &c. per bushel, which
was not met; white Wheat was dull. Corn,
Rye, Oats and Barley evinced no alteration
from Monday.
Mess Pork remained in good demand, 400
brls. selling at $l7@17 l231 per brl; best
brands being held at SIT 25. Bulk Meats
? were in active request, mostly Sides. Bacon
was in good request, and Lard continued
dull.
The receipts Of Hogs were very light, only
400 head, and the sole transaction reported
on Change was 200, averaging lSO pounds,
at Sc 90; the market being frmer than it
was on Monday.

Mondays New York papers say of the
Stock market:
TIE Stock market for some days has been
rather a puzzle to the quidnuncs of the
street, and whether its real tendency is
toward rise or fall is scarcely determined
yet although prices generally are consider
ably lower than at the beginning of the
week. Il is evident that operations on the
bull side have lost much of the active and
vigorous support noticed in the previous
week, and while among the bears there is
not much disposition to press sales, contracts
for delivery have been offered with more
courage and freedom.
To day the market has been very tame and
dull, and, although lower in some instances
than at the close of Friday, prices were very
well sustained under the circumstances. The
Commission houses appear to have but few
orders, and strictly outside purchases have
undoubtedly been checked by the rapid ad-
vance, while the influential SPECTATORS of
the street-men Of ample means--who un-
derstand the ebb and flow of the speculative
tide ss well as the Brokers themselves, and
who are always ready TO come in at the last
stages Of panic, and 60 out on the top ol
reaction, have temporarily Withdrawn from
the field, after bagging the profits Of the last
turn.
Mondays Tribune observes respecting Sat
uIday's Monetary matters:
The Money Market is without change Il
notice The supply on call is abundant a
6(g7 per cent, with fair degree of activity
consequent upon the changing of Loans, aO
sorpton of Capital, &c, following the recen
Treasury note negotiation. There can be NJ
difficulty, however in obtaining all the tacili
ties needed, upon good securities, so long a
the Gold of Europe continues to pour il
upon us. The Banks have now an embar
RAISING amount in vault, and the amour
must increase for the next twenty or thirt
days, and perhaps longer. In the Discount
houses the quantity Of frst.class Paper
quite limited, and rates are. unchanged.
The moFementjR Treasury Notes has at
tIacted the attention of capitalists some wha
from Paper. Leading double names at shor
date 60 at T9S per cent, and single name
at 9@l0per cent. The Bank Loans are st
running down, mainly from the redemptio
of Loan Certificates, and the Loans, Spec
ard Deposits will all show contraction i
the Monday statement. The Specie hi
gone into the Sub Treasury, where it ca
not rest long. The Loan Certificates hay
been nearly one-half redeemed. The aggr,
gale amount issued, we believe, was near
100000, Of which about 1000, ,00O. was
