FRIDAY EvHsMa. Dec. .. 1854
There haa been diIufnution In the depe1nd for
money to-day; but ~ full one million dolllrs Of
currency reached this city last night aud this
morning, in response to orders telesEnphed to
New York on Monday, the disappointment Of Dor
rowers have been less numerous to-day than for
any day during the week; although con8tderah1e
many are counted IN that dilemma. Az our bankers
expect steady stream Of currency from New York
for GONE time, probably there will be fair supply,
for at who are justly entitled to it. although Of this
there Is positive certainty- It La very diicult
to say how many and how large borrowers would
take the aeld, ii there seemed an abundance ofcur
rency In the market The markets are weak to-
day, with general depression Of prices. -
Exchangc is less drug IN the market to-day,
owing to The receipts Of currency from New York.
The rates arc nominal, say 4Gol buying; par sell
ing The concessions from these rates arc not nu-
mcrouB.
Gold has suffered little from auctation to-day
and the market has been quiet, With small trans
actions The range in New York Ia little lower
than yesterday. The following nte the New York
quotations telegrapbed to James Boyd, bullion
broker, ss Clark street:

The other gold:bearing stocks OF the United
Stotes were partially affected By the delay Of the
expected announcement IN regard to the 10 loan,

The Tribune also says:
Government stocks arc lower under the dieap-
pointmcnt In relation to Withdrawing the 1870
Loan at $1o0 DO0, coo, which Secretary Fessenden
declines to do. He has mistaken the recent COM
linat1op to get the 1040s up to point where they
could be Withdrawn With credit to the Treasury,
for rush to tskc them upon their merits. They
were taken speculation as the last OF the Issue
Of gola-bearlng stocks, and will come upon the
market for sale for what they will bring. This
price will be under the Government rate, and un-
I'll they hare found resting place subscriptions
will be nominal. The closing rate Of 10-i0s IL

As a i've per cent loan is not popular, aud the
1G46s from the start have been In the way Of the
Department. the sooner they are withdrawn the
better. They district the minds Of parties haV-
Ing capital to invest, and keep money ont OF the
Treasury. Upon short convertible currency
bonds, al the Treasury ought TO borrow can be
had, and 1t cannot be upon five per cent bonds
at par.
