Yesterdays Louisville Journal observes:
Universal dullness pervades the Money
Market, next to nothing being done by the
Banks in the line of discounts. There is
considerable inquiry for Exchange, the
Banks drawing on New York for customers
now and then at l per cent. premium, and
the brokers at "a premium. The buying
rate is l per cent. premium. New Orleans
Exchange we quote nominslly at l per cent.
discount selling. Two hogshead of Tobacco,
from Gallatin County, sold yesterday at
$l2 25@l3 per hundred, an indication that
the staple is in demand and the market
buoyant.
There is no sales reported. We quote
mess Pork at SIG 50@lS, bacon Shoulders
at &c., and prime Lard at SIC. in tierces.
Thursdays New York Stock Market is
thus reported in Fridays papers of that city:
The transactions at the Stock Board this
morning were TO a moderate extent, and quota
tiou s were irregular. The only marked fea.
tuIe was the fall in Rock Island, which, under
a moderate amount of Stock thrown on the
market, with a great lack of buyers, sold
after the Board down to BIZ, against 341<
yesterday. There were various unpleasant
rumors in the street regarding the accounts
of this road, the falling off Of its business,
&c; but we presume the real cause of the de-
cline to-day can be found in the Albany fail
ures. These Albany financiers have been
large operators in this Stock, and the appre.
tensions that large blocks must come upon
the market has alarmed holders, and induced

There was a bull movement some time in
this stock which was not successful, and no
doubt the market has been fed recently from
this source. We have no belief in any of
the rumors unfavorable to the managers of
this road. Central was strong for cash stock
at 72H@72% while selling at 70A, seller
sixty. Pacific Mail was steady at Yesterdays
prices. Panama is still scarce, and sold at 2
per cent, difference for thirty days. In the
Western shares the transactions we're to as
moderate extent without important change
excepting in Michigan Southern Guaranteed,
which was offered down to Is, q decline
arising from the same cause as hat in Rock
Island. The Board having adjourned to Fri
day, as a mark Of respect to the memory of
Colonel Voshurgh, there was but little done
during the afternoon. The market was gen.
orally heavy and irregular.
Fridays Tribune observes, under date of
Thursday evening,
The meeting of Bank. officers to day, to
counsel together in regard to the Govern
ment Loan to be awarded on Saturday, was
well attended, and the best spirit wa ex-
hibited. 1t was the common voice that the
Government must be sustained, aud supplied
with the sinews of war. After full deliber-
alton, q list of subscriptions to the Loan was
made up, amounting to four and q half
millions. Each Bank is to make its W
bid in no case below IS for Stock or Bonds,
and as much higher as is thought advisable.
There was no disposition shown to take the
alternative of Treasury Notes. If the Bos-
ton Banks the Philadelphia Banks perform
what they have promised, the above sub
scription secures the taking of the whole
Loan. In addition, however, a list IS being
made up among private Capitalists aud
moneyed institutions, which has reached a
million and a half and will probably reach
three millions to. morrow. There are also
five or six Banks which had no representa-
tiyes at the meeting to-day, whose subscrip-
tons will carry the combination list to five
millions. The Secretary is now assured of
sufficient means TO carry him up to the meet
ing Of Congress in July.
Fridays New York papers speSk of Thurs
day thus:
Money continues abundant on call, but
Paper moves very slowly. First class names
are current at about I for short, and 899 for
long Paper, but the list of names 70 which
this refers is short. But few capitalists are
willing TO Discount doubtful Paper even at
very high rates of Interest; some enterpris-
ing leaders are making 3@4per cent. a month
by shaving Notes which may prove perfectly
good.
The Exchange Market manifests some de-
gree OF steadiness at l05X0l06 for Bankers,
and l04@l05 for Merchant Bills or London.
The Great Edstern, sailing early on Satur
day morning, will take a NAL, to close at
seven p. M. to. morrow evening.
NEW YoRK Day GOODS MARKEr.-FridAy's
Tribune has the following; ssl
The Dry Goods market presents NO new
features. The deraDRement In the Western
Currency has interfsred With the collections,
but the general status OF trade has been
without change. The orders from Govern
ment are increasing, and great activity pre-.
walls in that department. and promises to be
large for months to come. The manufac-
turers and their agents have been discussing
the policy Of shorter credits, which have
always been advocated by the Iribass. The
necessity Of such a course appears impera,
tive, and most Of the leading houses engaged
in the commission business have agreed TO
limit the credit 70 ak months, instead o
eight months, as heretofore. This move
ment does not prevent houses from selling
on q shorter term, but the long time is posi-
lively limited to six months. Il was sup
posed by some that the credit should be re-
'dueed TO four months on Cottons and six
months on Woolensi and while ii was gen.
orally conceded that the interests Of alf con-
