WEDNESDAY. August 1, 1856. !
I MoxETARY.-Gold closed in New York yester-
day at 1875, and at aeon and at P NJ had reached
1i9. which is an advance Of 2eents from the OPEN
ing rate Of Mon5ay. The buying rate here was
! 1469147.
Government securities are as follows:
52Os....... 1851 a1051S 1O-iO's 3s999
I 7-30's.-.---..-. l041sgl0i1z
Liverpool advices Of the 18th quote 5-2O's at
e91z.
Very little doing in uncurrent money. and rates
are unchanged. Bank Of Tennessee is not quite
so firm at 30G92c, Planters Bank is dull at Coo,
while Union Bank is in demand at 70972c.
Southern money generally is dull and fat.
Only q few banks sell readily.
CoTrox.-For the past week there has been
very little activity in the cotton trade, and very
little change in prices until yesterday when there
was an advance of fully cent. one lot being sold
at 259281z. The cessation Of hostiliies in Europe
viii doubtless cause a considerable appreciation
in the demand and price of this staple.
GRoCERIEs.-During the week there has been
q manifest improvement in the grocery trade com
pared with the preceding week. The appearance
of new -four in large supplies, has lowered the
figures and demand for old. while the prices for
new are nearly sustained. Corn meal has gone up
to S per Dbl, bolted. The supply Of bacon is am
pie and demand light and lard sympathizes with
bacon. There is a fair trade for coffee and sugar,
while candles continue in fair request. The nail
market is dull while prices have advanced. There
is a decidedly improved demand for liquors. We
