The New York Times of Tuesday, respect-
ing the Money market, says:
"The market for Money opens quiet this
week. There is no decided increase in the
Offering of mercantile Paper, though the
| jobbing trade is looking up, aud a good
| business doing in the staples of both Dry
| goods and Groceries. The rates Of Discount
are 6@7 per cent for first-class double named
| Paper. Demand Loans are in moderate re-
| quest at Soc per cent. The rule with the
| Stock brokers is now more generally per
cent than the inside figure. The advance
| in Exchange on London, at the close of last
week, is only fairly supported on the actual
sales thus far made for the Candrder of
Wednesday. We quote Bankers l07X@
1O7M.
The same paper says
1--WE learn that the General Government
has refunded to the State of Illinois 40 per
| cent. of the expenditures of the State incur
red in fitting out volunteers for the war.
This amount, added to the present amount in
the State Treasury, gives the State over
$l,l00,000, applicable to the payment of
interest, and reduction of the State indebt-
edness in January next. We learn that it is
net the intention of the State at present to
place any of its new bonds in the market"

lowing in relation to Treasury-notes:
"The Secretary of the Treasury has drawn
on the Banks, in favor of the Sub Treasurer
Mr.. Cisco, under the recent negotiation o
Treasury notes. for $4,000, OO0, which is II
per cent. on their subscription. This will
make S1,OCOOOO, or ~ per cent paid up.
"There is an active demand in the street fol
the six per cent. Treasury notes. which are
wanted for the payment of duties Tht
Brokers are buying at 975s@9724, and sell
ing at 97T@9S. No important amoun
could be bought at SO, and if we are to have
any importstions this Fall, all the floating
. lots on the market will be absorbed before
the demand will arise from the Banks foI
payment on the second fifty millions of tht
recent loan"
The same journal in referring to the pros
poets Of trade, says:
! "There is adecidedly better feeling in bust
ness circles, and much confidence is felt tha
the Fall trade will be better than has beer
anticipated. Cotton and Cotton Goods yer,
very firm, and the shipping interest is com
paratively in a favorable condition unde
! the large export business in produce, and tn
purchases of shipping for the use of the Gov
eminent. The activity in bresdstuffs has
: favorable influence upon all orsncne5 {
y business, and must enable the West with il
b enormous crop to meet promptly its engage
ments to the East. The jobbers of DR.
:, Goods begin to feel the rising tide, and til
