TUESDAY. Feb. 5-P. Y

Gold though scarce for delivery, is rather lower
and closes at 1894 after selling at 1897. One-half
per cent has been paid FOR cash, gold.
Government Securities are firm, with moderate
business The 1905 are strong and no large order
could be filled at quotations. In State bonds and
railway mortgages very little doing and hardly
enough TO make quotations. Railway shares con.
tinue feverish and tend to lower rates. The dspo-
ition to sell for future delivery does not abate,
and among the largest operators.in this way are
Western people fully informed as to the position OF
affairs among the consumers and traders Of the
West, which arc not satisfactory. Reading was
largely sold to-day, and was the most active stock
on the list At the Second Board Government
stecks were strong and in demand, and the railways
dull. The closing rates were n. Y. Central, S6s q

Money is quoted on call at per cent, with ex.
ceptional loans at percent. There is a moderate
business in good commercial paper, but for the
grade selling at 10al5 per cent the inquiry is
email. We qUote IAN for best and SAG for good
names Hr.r1
The trade OF the city ia moderate, and buyers are
moving with much caution. The people at large
are fully impressed with the idea that steady con.
fractDn is to be the policy of the Government,
and that those with fewest engagements TO pay
money will be safest Consumers, under the feel
ing that prices are to be lower, buy sparngIy, and
traders are not encouraged TO make their ordinary
purchases, even. Goods continue to pass into
bonds and stocks of domestic fabrics to increase.
with nothing in the future TO check the movement.
Since April, 1866, the country has largely over.
traded, as is now clearly seen by the eJuggalness
sn the business Of all grades of traders
Exchange is dull and lower under pressure Of

A very full attended meeting OF bank once Is
was held AZ the American Exchange Bank to-day.
Mr.. Calhoun Of the Fourth National Bank IN the
chair. 10 consider the circular OF MIR. Spinner III
relation to the tax on bank deposits. Inc treas
ury takes the position that tax is due on the de-
posts as they stand at p. IN. daily, while the
banks argue that the days deposits can only DC
known after the Clearing House figures are de-
c,ored the next day. The Secretary and Mr.
Spinner understand the workings OF the Clear
inc. House system thoroughly, and probably intend
70 collect tax upon the certified checks which the
hanks of "the three cities are daily producing
and which in New-York alone are equal to $50,
600, 900 of currency. This system OF cer''heo
checks-so convenient and profitable to the pahh'
and their dcaers-the Treasury intends shall yield
tax Of about 81 900 600 in this city, and 1t cannon
be avoided unless the cearings are made al hisi'
on the checks of each day absolutely PAID
