tied, but rates were unchanged holders con-
tinuing firm. Whisky was in good request,

Yesterdays Louisville Courier says of
Tuesdays Provision Market;
The Provision Market to-day was firm but
rather quiet. The demand for mess Pork at
our quotations was small. Buyers were con-
tending for a decline, but holders, on the
other hand, were firm at $l7, and the sales
were limited to some 300 brls. of city packed
at SIT. Bacon was more active, with a large
demand on orders, and the market closed
finn and buoyant, with an upward tendency
10 prices. The demand is chiefly for heavy
rib Sides, and they are becoming scarce. The
sales to-day were made at T1%c. for clear rib,
and 1870. for clear Sides. There is a good
inquiry for Lard, but holders are not disposed
to meet the market at our quotations. The
sales to-day were limited at Sc. for t%ierces,
and csc. for kegs. There is nothing doing
in bulk Meats.
Tuesdays Tribune observes respecting last
weeks New York Bank statement;
The Bank. statement shows a large increase
in the Specie average and in net deposits,
while the Loans are but slightly in advance
of the last statement. The Gold received by
the ARABIA and North Star has nearly gone
to the Assay Office for coinage, and will
count in the next weeks return. There
seems to be no escape from an unhealthy
accumulation of Money. The comparative
statement is as follows:

Tuesdays Herald remarks in regard to
Mondays New York Monetary Matters:
There is nothing new in the Money
Market. Gilt-edged Paper is much wanted,
end can be passed at 5 per cent. Some OF
the Brokers have more Money left with
them at 8 than they can use. In the open
street 6 is the general rate.
Foreign Exchange advanced again this
morning on the strength Of the recent Gold
arrivals. Leading houses are asking 10Y for
their sterling bills, and good mercantile bills
90 as high as log. This will be good news
for the mercantile community in England.
~ HusI uOt Do suppOstu, however, as Tue
London Times and some other foreign jour
mails seem to do, that Specie is likely to flow
back to England in a few weeks. Even
with the rate of interest in London at 8 and
here at 6, Exchange must advance fully two
per cent. above the present rates before Spe.
Gle could be shipped proftably to cover
S xty-day bills. I esH ,r.
The stock Market continues dull, in the
anticipation of positive news from Washing
ton Oh the pending issues between the Gov
eminent ard the Southern onfederacy. The
mails per africa and AUstrdlaSian, which were
delivered yesterday and this morning con
tanned a few orders TO sell Stocks, and some TO
buy, probably fully as many Of the n as of
the other. The expectation that foreign hold
els Of American Securities would sell their
Stocks on the news of our political troubles,
and that Bankers on the other side would
use them as a remittance, has thus been dis
appointed. The English, at all events, do
not seem TO consider Erie and Illinois Cen
trial any the worse property in consequence
of the Secession of the Gulf States. There
was an active demand for United States Sc.
curities this morning, and a fair business
done at a slight concession from the extreme
prices of Saturday. Yirginiss and Missouris
also declined q, while Tennessees advanced
