The money market improves gradually
in the supply Of currency, and the demand
is running very moderate. Balances, how
ever, are still comparatively low, and the
market is close.
Eastern Exchange is in light demand,

A pretty general dizziness continues the
characteristic feature Of financial matters
in New York. Money is plenty, but there
are few borrowers of the better class, and of
all others capitalists ara extremely eau
tious. Whether the action of Congress in
relation to the finances; whatever it NAV
be, will influence any change or not, can
only be surmised but it is certain that it
would go far to relieve the disagrseable sus-
Pense that weighs upon business. With
some authority given the Secretary of the
Treasury, he would be enabled to give the

apprehensions that now afaict it. AS mat
tiers now stand, business men are without

e%rations are a natural result. Having un-
qualified faith in the sagacity and financial
conservatism of Mr.. McCulloch, we have no
fears that he will do anything to damage
the trade and industry of the country, and
have no doubt that his course, under what
ever authority may be given him, will be
adjusted with regard to the best interests of

SOLDIERS AID SOCIETY.
Report of the Sanitary OomuisslOn.

In a former statement published in Au-
gust, 1865, the closing of the Soldiers Home
in this city was fixed for some period before
November LIST. The amount of travel, how
ever, at that time, and until q recent date
has authorized the Soldiers Aid Society to
retain its doors open until January lst. At
present the expense of maintaining SO large
an establishment seems out Of proportion to
the benefits received, and the special relief
still required can be more judiciously ad-
ministersd in other ways. The Soldiers
Home is therefore now virtually closed, but
while there are still volunteer forces in the
service there are retained at command the
means of relieving possible distress, and Of
continuing to offer the services of the Com
mission to soldiers in traxsitW. A lodging
and reading room will, therefore, still be
open in the Home building until April LIST,
and the required meals furnished at the
Depot Dining Hall.
The following report of tbs business of the
last few months will show the relative pro
portion of expense and benefit received. A
full report of the Home from its o~rganiSa-
ton to its close will be rendered as sson al
possible

TIT item of special relief IL the above
report includes the assistance rendered to
disabled soldiers resident in the city, as
well as those requiring aid to reach their
homes. In addition to the above, the fol.
lowing articles have been given out from
the Soldiers Aid society's Rooms;
IS comforts and blankets, 5 bed ticks, 2
pillows, 50 pillow cases, II sheets, 81 shirts,
II pairs drawers, l dressing gown, Il towels
and handkerchief, 40 pairs socks, 81 lbs
lint bandages and congresses, / can beef.
10 lbs. dried fruit, 100 lbs. groceries, 8 bot
ties wines, 2 combs, 4 pairs s~uspsnders, 10
PIN cushions, 8 pairs crutchss, Is pairs

bushels vegetables, 495 loaves bread. u
chickens, 3 cans oysters, 2 brooms, 8 pencils,
3 paper pins, s dozen buttons, II pieces
tape, . papers needles, 1 looking glass, a
quantity Of wood.
Transportation has been furnished to ts
soldiers to to the State Home at Columbus.
with the clothing necessary to their com
fort, and when the case required il, the more
uisaoied nave been sent under care Of an
attendant.
The following articles have been shipped
to Capt. Brayton, Superintendent of the
State Home, and on Jan. LIST a contribution
OF $4,000 was applied to the current expenses
Of that institution until an appropriation for
its maintenance can be Obtained. Under
Its present management the Home has the
warmest support of this Society.
SHIPMENTS TO STATE HOME.
80 pair crutches, 20 flannel shirts. 1871 arm
sings, 2 lbs. CASTLE soap, AZ comfort bags,
IL cts. wine, As lbs. grapes, 80 lbs. tobacco,
I45 flannel drawers, 20 pillows, 10 pads, 8

lOO chairs, 2 rocking chairs, l black board.
AT the recommendation of the U. s. San
itary Commission, the War Claim Agency
in this city, formerly sustained by the Gem
trail office, has been continued BY this So
ciety, April lst, until that date, therefore. |
all claims can be collected free of charge by
soldiers and soldiers families. The benefit
Of this work of the Commission can hardly |
be over estimated. While this Agency il |
continued the Office of the Soldiers Aid So |
eiety will be open. and until the provision
to be made by the State for its disabled SOL
diers is known, the funds of the Society will
be retained in the Treasury. Should the
State Soldiers Home be discontinued, the
money raised for the sick and wounded
would most properly be applied 10
support of a similar institution.
The final report Of the operations of this
Society will be necessarily postponed until
the close of its service.
