Friday Evening, Nov. 2, 1866,

There is no quotable variation of any kind to
report to-day in the movement of Gold, Sterling,
ar Exchange. The Gold markethas been inactive
throughout, owing partly to the diminished char
acter of the supply and to the heavy falling of in
the demand. The only actual sales which have
come to our knowledge in an authentic form since
our last were the following, viz. $4,000, $1,000, |
and $1,000 at 1473 in the morning, $1,000, $500,
$4,000, $5O0O $l2 900 and SIS 600 at las, $500,
$1,000, $4,000 and $l2,5O0 at l484, and $1,000 and
and $500 at 1483. The sales of Silver comprised
