Matters were very quiet in Money circles
yesterday, and nothing transpired worthy
particular mention.

in relation to Money matters there:
1.-THE Money market shows no change.
First-class business Paper is still 10 request

of sale, and renewed Paper out of favor.
Some capitalists manifest disposition to
hold off from any new operations until after

Respecting the Money market at New
York, the Tribune of Thursday says;
"There is rather more activity in Money
matters, and rates are, in many cases, per
cent. higher than a week ago. Demand
Loans are 4@6 per cent, mostly 596 per
cent, and "gilt edged" Paper 5(97 per cent,
with but few transactions under 6 per cent.
The amount of good Paper offering is very
light"
The same journal has the following in re-
lation 10 Treasury-notes:
"Tbe applications at the Sub Treasury for
lu6 utW 10 U6 very
numerous. About l20 deposits were made
to-day by outsiders, ranging from $50 TO
So, 900. There are also many applications on
the part of Banks Saving Institutions, &C.,
in various parts of the country, to Join in
the arrangement with the Government made
| by our Banks. One proposition is for $780,

have declined such propositions on the
| ground that they have no clearing arrange

the Specie of such Banks can not be carried
in common stock as that belonging to the

The Secretary of the Treasury has yielded
to the representations of the Bank Commit.

There is less doing in 6 per cent. Treasury

THE SMELL FROM THE GUTTA -PERCHA ROOF
ING MANuFACToRY.-Weic eichlemau US. Gay &
Co. Judge Storer disposed of the application
to enlarge the Injunction.
1t is averred that the health, comfort and
all that pertains to the enjoyment of the
property where the plaintiff resides, are not
merely jeopaTdized, but materially affected
day by day, aud that he is compelled to live
in an atmosphere altogether too impure and
diseased for any person to breathe--in other
words, that the effect of that atmosphere is to
produce sickness among the inmates of his
house; and a Court ought not to hesitate in
a case of this description.
1t was said by physicians that there was
nothing deleterious or unhealthy in the at
mosphere surrounding this factory; but un-
less man can retain his food on his stomach
he can not live, and if any thing prevents it,
that, in the view of the Court, without draw
ing any scientific distinctions, was unhealthy.
No man has right to do that which affects
his neighbor' comfort, convenience or health

Through the favor of Sergeant Eaton, of

previous, at three o'clock, Captain Willis
Wilmington left the camp with two hundred
and fifty men, on a scouting expedition, aud
had not been heard of at the time of his de.
parture, five days afterward. Fears for the
safety of the company were expressed, mas
much as the enemy were supposed to be in
large force somewhere in the neighborhood.
On the day previous to his leaving Beverly
the Ninth, Twenty third and Twenty-fifth
Ohio Regiments, arrived by hurried march
from Buckhannon, and were ordered to pro-
ceed at once to Huttonsville the next day.
Here they were to join General Reynolds, in
command of the brigade stationed at that
point In addition to these three regiments,
the Fifteenth and Seventeenth Indiana, and
the Third Ohio, now at that place, would
make his force consist OF six or seven thou
sand men. He had, besides, thirty -one
pieces OF artillery and four mountain howit'
zers of such convenient size and shape as to
be easily transported on the back of mules.
Little was known of the force and position
of the rebels, but it was supposed that Gen.
