and We hear If where they have been declined as de-
posts TO be drawn against the damage Of the receiving
bank at the Clearing House. Next week another attempt
will beade 70 force the city banks into making settlements
OF the House in these notes and it is thought
that majority can behad IN favor Of the plan This cur
rency at regular discount in large sums Of per
cent. and high reported upon the street to the
intense disgust Of the epausons who are now SO fond
Of paper money to think banknote superior to the
Issues Of the Treasury and who view with alarm the pros
pect Of getting gold from Europe, returning to specie
payment by any method.
Exchange is much unsettled and negotiations are made
Of produce bills with difficulty. Parties in the shipping
business do not share the alarm Of The Tcs lest the
ports Of staples should cease through the efforts Of gam
ber who have been persuaded by it 20 sci gold short
and been defeated If anybody in Europe wants pro-
duets they can send gold for them. Gold will buy when
produce bills cannot be sold at any rate. London prime
