disclosed no material variation of any kind in
rates from the opening TO the close of business.
Offerings Of Gold were only moderate throughout
and the demand was of a much more restricted
character than heretofore. Snbjoined are the
whole Of the outdoor sales that have been salts
hctorily authenticated, viz: $1,000 at Isl, 10000
at l5Ol $4,000 at 1909, $1,000, 10000 and $4,000
at ljl, $1,000 at 1914, $4,000 and 10000 at Ijl!,
$4,000 at 1914, and $4,000 at 1904 We have
given the above in the order Of sales as affected by
New York dispatches. Sales Of Silver have been
confined to $1,000 American halves at l42, and
we now quote Gold, as heretofore, at 15Ol@ljl,
and Silver at l38@lH for American coin, and ljl
G1lj2 for Mexican dollars.
FOREIGN EHcHANGB-The movement in Sterling
and Francs is partially suspended. Outdoor offer
ings are but better than nominal, and the de.
mand at bank is restricted to small amounts for
remittance purposes. The only operations that
we have been advised of since our last were
Gl7OO private Sterling at 100; $500 bank ditto at
1919; 1000 private Francs at 3.35f, and $1,000
bank ditto at 339G Quotations rule as heretofore,
and we therefore repeat, as follows, viz: bank
Sterling at lGG0lG1 Clear Bills l570lj9, bank
Francs 33j@330f., and outdoor Francs at 3,4j
@340G
Domestic ExcuANGG-Thcre is no alteration
of any kind to refer founder this heading. Offer
ings Of commercial are smaller than have been
looked for in view of recent operations i'll cotton
on Northern and Eastern account The demand
for remittance purposes exhibits no let up, how
ever and heavy aggregate sales daily trauspire in
the WAY Of checks over the counter at the several
banks and banking houses. The outdoor purchases
since our last have been confined to $4,000 New
York sight at lis ~ cent. prem; 100000 525 0oO
I 100000, $50J $780, and 1000 New York and Bos-
4 ton sight at n cent. prem. 1000 one days
I sight at l-l6 q cent. discounts and 10000 do. at
j. cent. discount. There is no variation to report
in quotations, and We therefore repeat as follows
viz: } " cent. prem. at bank, and "a u cent
prem outof doors for sight checks on the North
IN cities
UHcuEREHT NoTEs AND SEcURITTEs-Business
of every kind has been almost at a standstill to-
day in all classes Of Uncurrent Notes and Secur-
ties. Previous figures Of the better descriptions
have been uniformly maintained, however, and
the subioined statement comprises the whole of
the outdoors sales that have been brought to our
notice viz: 5000 Louisiana State notes at 9}l :
$1,000 and $4,000 do. at OBJ, and $1,000 city Of New
Orleans notes at 995 shares Canal Bank stock
at j6l; 50 do, Louisiana State Bank at 26I and
500 do. Jackson railroad Company at 81. Also,
$4,000 city consolidated bonds, with July coupons,
at 90. The movement at the Brokers' Board
shows an unexpected collapse in that institution,
and we annex the few sales included in their Off,
cal report to-day, viz;

Nothing could be much more gratifying than the
official announcement that no more paper cur
reucy viii be issued Of the denomination of three
and five cents. The new coins are to be our sub
stltute in future for these " shnpasters.' We
take it for granted that if as much could be said
about paper currency generally, the popular sat
isfaction would be pToportionatey augmented,
Not That the new three and five cent coins are all
that we could desire as business community, for
both are apt to be mistaken at night for coins Of
a different denominations but, until specie pay
