surprised and thrown into confusion and
after about fifteen minutes lighting the en-

was the ardor Of our troops that twas al
most impossible to recall them from the

in his front and only being ordered to cross

tire to their former position. The loss OF

we had full possession of the south SIDE OF

Hooker's line in front of Resacca, in the

men, but causing no change in the posi-
tons.

The Gold Market.

New YORK, June 22.-The COMMERCIAL S
money article says the gold market is in a
most excited condition. The suspension
Of the public competition objected by the
gold bill has thrown the trade directly in
to the hands of spectators, and they. now
make their own prices and have made ad
libitMm use Of their prerogative. 1t was
well known that q large and short interest
was compelled to settle contracts for deliv-
cry Cor gold during to-day and tomorrow,
and the principal holders therefore held
back for large advance. The pressure OF
the shorts only increased the quotations of
holders and the process continued until at
noon the brokers were paying 81 Is and
selling at 81 IS. The effect of this state of
affairs has been to entirely suspend opera
tons in foreign exchange. Drawers do
not know what to ask and refuse to give
any quotations. One large firm in Nassau
St., is asking 81 Is to the pound sterling. At
such rates there can be no offers. At 1880
p. M. gold took downward turn. A large
lot was thrown upon the market at 81 30,
which put down the prices suddenly about
Is per cent. At 2:30 brokers were buying
at 81 10 and selling at 81 20, and at $3.50 p.
M, about 81 0S.
