There was good attendance On Change to-day,
hut the general despondcncy in commercial circles
with regard to the future had very depressing in
duence on the leading markets. The inactivity Of
onr Government In their efforts to crush the re-
bellion vas generally discussed, and almost uni
yersa1Iy denounced. Anparties- -"conseryatiyes"
as well as radicals-begin to show an impatience
at the want Of energy in the Executive, that can
not mil to make Itself felt in some ehape or other
The suspension Of specie payment-the general
depreciation Of property Of all kinds-and the ex-
trcme etringency Of the money matket-all WIS
directly traced to the lack Of ability On the part Of
ourrulers to meet the crisis upon us.
Under such circumstances it Ia not to be VOL
de1ed that We hare to record depreciation of
nearly all the leading articles Of produce. The
grcat dimcult!-nay almost i1npoesibflity Of nego-
tfatfng sight drafts On New York, kept those who
wanted to buy out Of the market, and business
generally was sont Of joint" and in ssate Of dis
order.
The receipts Of lire hogs, as posted oh Change,
were 7,535 headi but this could not hayc embraced
the supply at the various yards last night and this
moruing-for never before In the history Of Chi
cago vas there such g1utted market. This morn
ing, at the three yards there were not less than
about $50 carloads not unloaded. Eni1er such an
avalanche OF hogs. 1t is not surprising that the
market ehould have again declined 5@10c per 100
os with less disposition to purchase even at this
depreciation than formerly Only about 1850 head
changed hands, at $2.lo@7. Il, gross-she most Of
the sales being at $e.225@aa 30 Those sold over
these figures were extra heavy and choice. The
demand bT shippers was vcfy light. and the pack

ing further decline on Monday.
The market for beef cattle continues firm, with
sales ut s. for eopmon to good There were
hut few extra lots offered
The market for dressed hogs declined 1oc per 100
DE- with sales at $s6o18 for light to very choice
The continued cold weather tends to check the
downward tendency Of tho market.
The Provision Market is dull and hea7y. The
demand for hess Pork ia very Hight and the sales
to-day amounted to only about 750 brls at $8,8'78

Currency continues exceedingly scarce. but It is
believed The market will be much easier esrTy in

learn that movement is on foot to redeem In Chi
cago the bills Of the Indiana, Iowa, the Bank OF
Montreal andthe few Illinois banks that are owned
IN this city, at per cent. discount IN coin, and
then to reject all other currency. BY this means
it is proposed 10 make tho bills Of theRe banks the
currency Of Indiana, Illinois, and Iowa. We arc
not informed Us to the precise condition Of the
movement, or whether it ia likely to be consuul-
mated at an early day, butit would be far better
for our business and mercantile community fur the
time being, If it can be effected than to encourage
eastern Wild Cat y banks to flood the West with
unn,itigated "stump-tail.'' One OF tho Indiana
Branches, located here, has been redeeming the
bills Of the State Bank ali day at ono per cent in
coin. The Bank Of Montreal has been accoInmo-
dating the people at the same rate for its
bills, and it needs but the enlargement Of the sys

Samuel Myers takes i benefit at McVicker's
Theatre. Mr. Myers is careful, painstsking,
and diigent actor, and has always been fa-
vorite with the theatre going public. His
naDac always brings up recollections Of those
ambrosial nights In the little theatre Oh Dear

times in Its struggle to gain foothold in this
city. For the sake Of the old timca aud to re-
ward very deserving actor who has contribu-
ted largely to the amusement Of the public
during the past ten years, VIC hope the theatre
on this occasion will be crowded to overflow
ing and that the beneficiary may receive fit
ting testimonial in the way Of well-lincd
