FINANCIAL And COMMERCIAL.


TUESDAY EVENING, Dec "a. 1861.
The money market has been dull aud operators
Of all kinds have maintained their accustomed can
tion Of the paet few days. The banks have an
abundance Of money. The products Of the West
have not been marketed to any considerable ex-
tent, and 1t needs but confidence In the fntnre, to
get the wheels Of commerce In actire motion. The
uncertainty that hangs over our foreign relations,
is affecting the amount Of money almost every
man is likely to have in his pocket. That uncer
tainty is felt more senslbly now than it would be
three months after a war with England had been
in actual operation. Capital could then adjust
itself to the real facts which SELDOM ever rcal-
1ze the fears Of the business public.
Much interest Is excited by the circulation Of
pamphlet explanatory OF Secretary Chase>s system
Of dnance, the arrangement and details being to
show that by its adoption not only would the
strength Of the Union be Increased, but the coun-
try rendered entirely Independent Of foreign cap
ital.

branches Of the State Bank Of Iowa. On Dec. 2 gaze

positors, $769, ,55oo5; other items, $s9 665.s9.
The demand for exchange today has not been
especially pressing Most OF the leading banks sup
piled customers freely at n per cent. premium, 4
few Of them with the brokers charged X. hebuy-
ing price was par OK and the smaller houses per-
haps paid X.
GolD-The holders OF gold we're frmer in their
views. The leading banks sold sparingly to Gus
toners at X, and sales to outsiders were made at
zs@1 2 cent. The brokers charged 1@1H. There
was no general demand among the people, but
holders eeem disposed to provide against eontin-
gcncies:
The FASTING PRocEss.-Fo the thousandth time
perhaps We warn our readers against the pasting
process. Operators in this department seem just
now to be specially active. To-day We aaw one
dollar bill Oh the State Bauk Of Iowa, altered to
ten. It WIS 20 well done that 1t WAS taken by q
clerk who handles great deal Of money. The
ones hare siugle figure in the centre as zig.
