SAN Francisco, Dec. 80, 1865.
There is no new feature in the condition
of the money market, and the supply Of
capital continues abundant, at rates Of in
terest current for some time past. Trans
actions in mercantile circles are more re-
stricted than usual, owing to the approach
Of the new year, and the operations Of the
Stock Exchange do not now involve much
assistance from outside sources. Receipts
Of treasure from domestic sources during
the week amounted to $780, 900, making
an aggregate Of S4,l50,000 since the LIST
instant. The bullion product of Califor-
MIA during the year 1865, will probably
exceed S2S, 000. 900. and that of Nevada
will amount to some $l4.600, 900. The
treasure product Of the latter amounted to
about sic, 900, 900 last year. The mining
share market has been a. little irregular
this week, but nos leading stocks are
rather firmly held. and the late advance
has. for the most part, been well mann
tanned. Advices from a numbe. Of claims
continue favorable, and the year will close
upon much better prospects for the future
than were predicted by a certain class OF
croakers a short time since. The aggre-
gated recorded sales Of shares, etc., at the
Stock and Exchange Board during the
wear 1866, amounted to Sal, 369. 092. The
smallest weekly sales amounted to $780,

average being about 100000 per week.

amounted TO $685. $50. showing an in
crease in the transactions this year OF
Sl~0.379.440. q,
Gould 4 Curry met with small sales at
S9O0@925. and is now held at 1925. Re
ceipts OF bullion from the mine the cur
rent month will mount to some $780,
