FINANCIAL.-The New York Commercial Ad-
rertiser Of yesterday evening says:
The stock market is moderately active, with
some lrregularity in prices. Governments
were active and higher, notwithstanding the
prevailing suspense as TO the result of the bids
for 31,O00,000 to be opened to- day. Coupons
OF 1881 advanced =, and Five.twenties H;Cer-
ufcates declined X.
The money market shows rather more strin-
gency in consequence Of the prospective taking
of the new loan, W hile at the same time there
is an increased inquiry for money. There is
an itching among brokers to start up an in.
creased activity in the stock market, and they
are not satisfied to wait until the loan has been
disposed OF. This keeps up an active inquiry
for money, and is likely to hold the market
tight for the next twenty days. The movement
OF money Westward, must be materially
checked by payments for Western purchases
of merchandise The Western trade has to paw
for its purchases in cash to considerable ex-
tent this fall, instead of buying on thirty to
ninety days credit as usual, which on this
market will be an important offset against the
money sent hence for the moving of the crops.
At the same time, by producing q scarcity OF
money at the West, it will tend to keep down
the prices Of produce, thereby inappreciably
reducing the amount required for carrying the
crops.
The Evening Post says:
Mr.. Fessenden has every reason to congrat-
ulate himself on the success Of the new loan.
At l2 p. m. the bids were opened, and three
offers. at fraction over 1O4, are reported to
give total Of &22, ,OOO, 600. The aggregate bids
are estimated at 500, ,OOO, ,O00, of which deposits
art at the Sub Treasury in this city.

ion:
"The resolutions, so tar as their meaning
can be gathered from the obscurity of laby-
rinthine phrases and imperfect construction,
fail to represent the position assumed by the
Ious and Ridiculous. 1t is trifiing with the in.
terests OF the party, and insulting to the good
sense OF the people to put together q mass Of
words IN the form OF resolutions better calcu-
lated TO mistify than to instruct, and whose
purport Is the fulsome fiattery Of candidate
rather than the straightforward enun citation Of
principles. 1t Is time that the Democratic
masses should be spoken to as reasonable beings.
We are upon the eve Of an election that is to
decide peoples fate; and 1t is folly and crime
TO disguise the solemn truths that the people
are already familiar with"
