Gold opened at 49, sold up to 1874, and closed at
1871. The market is quite strong upon moderate
business.
Government stocks are steady for all gold bearing
kinds and are firmly held. For the 7.3O issue the
demand is constant at private sale at par and in
terest The last issue is more firmly held, and in a
few days it will not be easy to get them at better
than par. State bonds and railway mortgages are
hardly offered, and are firmly held Bank shares

The Assistant-Treasurer at this port Mr.. Van
Dyke, is in very bad odor with a small clique in
Wsshington-st., which fancy that the Sub-Tr cas-
1ry and the Custom House should be run for their
benefit. He steadily refuses 10 answer questions
which, in an ordinary financial institution, would
be answered by showing the querist the door. The
financial movements Of the Government in all their
details are not under Mr.. Van Dyke, revealed to
any curious inquirer nor with evident propriety to
ANY business man.
