a PLETHORA of money, co-existing
with declining values at the stock
boards, is ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS, and the
prominent topic of conversation in
financial circles just now is as TO the eli
feet which this abundance of capital
seeking temporary investment, and the
depression of public confidence, are
likely to produce on general business.
At New York the range of call loans is
now from 5 to 6 per cent, and in some
instances it is stated, even as low MS 4
per cent. There are few borrowers,
careful persons seeming rather DESTROYS
of avoiding all engagements and wish
ing to contract obligations MS far as pos
sible. The ease in money is attributed,
in part, TO the closing up of the usual
avenues employing it, to the increase
in unemployed funds arising from half
yearly dividends, rs evidenced by nc
emulation of National Bank notes in
the banks. The depression of public
confidence (as denoted in the weekly
fluctuations of the stock market and
general average decline, is closely con-
nected with the anticipated contraction
movement of the Secretary of the Treas
ury, though it is thought thatthi vague
feeling of distrust will pass away en-
tirely when the practical nature of the
measure is fully known. Upon the pro-
posal to authorize IL foreign loan the
5-20's of 1862 were mt first depressed, but
after mature consideration it is now
concluded that Congress will discard
this feature of the proposed measure,
and. the bill is construed as foreshnd-
owing an early attempt to fund 1905
into long loan, with the effect to make
Treasury notes decidedly tirIner. In
| the markets generally large investments
are being made of surplus funds in
.3O's and certificates of Indebtedness.
The continued falling of in railway
earnings of course has its effect upon
railroad stocks. In addition TO the de-
cline of traffic consequent upon the ces-
sation of war, the short wheat crop of
tho West has its effect, as we'll as the
opening of the Mississippi river again
to general commerce. Trade and trans
| portation of the West is thus being di-
verified back again somewhat to its for
mer channels, and heavy freights will
find their way to the Atlantic cities, to
more or less extent, by the rivers and

GENERAL T. NJ. HARRIS, of this State,
known to most of our readers for his
services during the war, is on short
leave from his post ut Fredericksburg
to visit his family, who are staying for
the present up ut Washington, PA. The
General is improving his leave to say
something for the schools, and the
charities for white and black, which
ne superintends and controls in his
military district. He spoke last night
Mt Washington on their behalf, and will
speak here mt the Fourth Street N. f.
Church, on Friday night next. The
admission fee will be twenty-five cents,
the proceeds to go to the schools and
charities aforesaid.
Tomorrow (Thursdny) night the Cen
eral will speak at the Court House on
the issues of the day, and will detail to
our people his views of the crisis as re-
spects the situation in the rebellious
States. He has had widespread ex-
perience, not only during the war, but
since, and is certainly one of those
thoroughly competent to give n
reliable exposition of Southern AT
fairs: His lecture mt the Court House
will be free.
We hope Mt both meetings to see n
large turn out of citizens.
