FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
WEDNESDAY, April 22-eP. M.

WEDNESDAY. April 22-6 p. M.
There is better feeling to-day, which is partly
due to the non.arrival of the Secretary of the
Treasury and partly to the intelligence from Eu.
rope. The Persia, however, brought back good
many bills.
Money continues very easy indeed. To the
brokers IL is freely offered at per cent, and many
houses will not allow over 4. The new debt GER.
flowing hither from every quarter.
Geld opened this morning, on the good news
from the seat of war, at l441 rose TO l4s1,, sold
in the afternoon at lat, ~ Il, l47 1862 and l4711,
and closed at five p. NJ. at about l47s<. Goad is
in stronger hands than it was, and there is much
less speculation than there, used 10 be among the
small street operators. Early this morning bills
sold at leo but later in the day the price was about
l6l, and ct the close they were l62 az.
The stock market was much better today and
the tone more buoysnt. Harlem opened At o.,
against SO last evening, advanced on the Broadway
Railroad ordinance to IS, reacted to 68 sold in the
afternoon at 20, ca, 81, co, and closed about es.
The short interest in this stock has been very large
and the bears have suffered very severely indeed.
Thsy seem, however, to be quite a. anxious as ever
70 put out contracts. Hudson River likewise rose
u. per cent ut the morning board, with very con.
siderable activity; about ons-half the sales were
on sellers options. Erie rose u, Southern old y,
Pittsburg q. Illinois u, Toledo 3H, Chicago
and Northwestern 1, Minnesota Mining Company
~. The market does not move uniformly. Certain
stocks appear to be In demand one day, and Others
the next; 90 that, on the long run, the whole mar.
ket win probably be found to have advanced at the
end Of each month. Erie and Pittsburg, the cheap.
est shares the list, In view Of their earnings
move upward very slowly. Governments were
steady. Az the one p. M. call Of the public board
the market was firm, and stocks were in good de-
r,and. In the afternoon the market was strous
and the buying wen distributed Pittsbmg ad
vsnced u and Erie =; Harlem was shade lower,
the rest Of the market was firm. At the four p. M
call Of the public board prices were well main
tsined. The following were the closing quotation:

West Point in the United States Senate

In late debate in the United States Sem
ate, says the Richmond Dispatch, Lane, of
Kansas, Trumbull, and other radicals of that
body, let loose the Walls of their wrath upon
West Point, which they endeavored to saddle
with all the failures of their arms in this
war. The Yankees have various ways of ac-
counting for their want of success but the
attempt to saddle it upon West Point is the
most irrational and absurd of all. If it had
not been for West Point they would never
have gained single battle, no matter what
their preponderance of numbers. Destitute
of all military aptitude, it is only the discip
line which West Point has given them that
has made their superior numerical strength
