The Difference.

Just before Buchanan retired from Of
flee, the Government advertised for loan
of SS, 100000 Bids were received to the
amount of $14,46O, 900 at 90 II per
cent.
A while ago sec'y Chase advertised for
loan of S8,000,0O0 and the aggregate
amount of the bids reached within a frac-
ton of 1874, 900. for which 81 per
cent, and upwards was bid for nearly 81
100000 between SO "a and "a per
cent. for $3.50, 900; and between 90 II
and 90 "a per cent for S1,127, 600,
No bids at less than 80 per cent were of
fered. This shows the estimation in which
the present Administration and its policy
are held in Wall street, and contrasts IA
vorably with the feeling entertained for
