Tuesday Evening. July II, 1855.
The Gold market opened this morning at yester-
days closing fgures-l480l485 but it soon
advanced to $50, under favorable advices from
New York. while it subsequently relapsed, and
finally closed at lds5@l49. Operations on the
street were rather heavy, while those at the
Brokers' Board were unusually light throughout.
We annex particulars of the former as follows,
viz $1,000, $4,000 and $4,000 at l48; $4,000 at 1881;
$4,000, $4,000, $4,000, $4,000, 10000, $4,000 and
SIS 900 at 1889 $1,000 and $4,000 at l4S}; $4,000,
$4,000 and $4,000 at l4O $4,000 at l49@l493;
S5OO0 $4,000 and $40 600 at l495 $4,000 at l493 and
900 at $50. Sales of Silver have been restrict
ed to $1,000 and $1,000 American coin at 40, and
1900 Mexican dollars at 1903. We now quote
Gold at l483@l49, and Silver at l37@l4o for
American coin and l5l@9l53 for Mexican Dollars.
FOREIGN ExcHANaE-Increasng weakness and
inactivity are the most prominent features
in Foreign Exchange to-day The market
was but poorly supplied at best, and
the demand was at no time better than
nominal from the opening to the close Of business.
Sales Of Sterling have been restricted to a few
trfng bank bills at our revised quotations. and
those OF Francs comprised only 5O0OOf, bought
by bank for gold, at 6.225f; 2O,0OGf., sold for
currency by bank at 3.30l.; and rs, 00Of, private,
at 355f. for currency. Quotations now rule at
l62@l63 for bank Sterling l6s@l60 for clear
bills; l530l55 for bill of lading bills; 3.3jf0330f.
for bank Francs, aud 3.55f935Of. for outdoor
Francs.
Domestic ExcHANGE-The movement in Bones
tic Exchange has disclosed still further weakness,
with only merely nominal demand since cur last.
Outdoor offerings continued exceedingly restricted
and the inquiry for checks over the showed
a very marked falling of, as compared with pre-
viousloperations. The only purchases by banks and
bankers that have come to our knowledge were
$40 900, $50 600 and $50 600 New York sight at
par, $4,000 ten days sight at per cent discount,
$4,000 twenty days sight at per cent. discount,
and $4,000 thirty days sight at per cent dis
count. The quotations a. the close Of business
this evening were par, J per cent. premium at
bank and per cent. discount to par out,of-doors
for sight checks on the Northern cities.
%gUNcUREENT NoTEs AND SECuRTIEs-The only
outdoor sale of the former that has ranspired TO-
day was $1,000 city of New Orleans notes at 99lc.
There is but little inquiry noticeable for any class
and rates are exceedingly huctuating. Sales Of
Stocks show a heavy increase, and prices Of all
favOrite securities disclose steady advance. The
outdoor movement to-day comprised $50 shares
Bank Of New Orleans at 393 20 Gas Stock on pri,

THE NEW ARTICLE OF THE FE D.

The House OF Representatives on Wed

ate. In speaking OF the merits and i'm.
portance of this new article, the Philadel-

guage, every word of which meets ouI
hearty APPROVAL
"a we'll defined issue has been established
Every member of the patriotic organization
which, bearing aloft the banner of the Union
during the armed struggle of the rebellion,
should be proud of the ability Congress has
displayed in graphing with the difficult
question of Reconstruction, and the fidelity
with which it has protected the interests Of
the Republic. The clamor for the immediate
readmission of the rebellious States will be
etectually answered by the justice and ne.
cessity of the provisions which the Republi.
can party affirm TO be necessary preredui-
sites, and which the Democrats unanimously
oppose, viz;
/. That the guarantee OF civil rights be
made constitutional Without this safe
guard repeated efforts would be made by the
South to restore what they consider the
good old times" when "negro had nc
rights which white man was bound to re-
spect, "
2. To deny to those States which deprive
any male citizens over the age of 81 years o.
the right 10 elect Congressman without con
stituencies. Practically this measure is alb
solutely necessary to prevent number o
the rebel districts from having twice the
power at Washington which loyal States
with an equal number of voters now possess
8. To exclude from all Offices of honor OF
profit, under the Federal Government, every
prominent rebel WHO violated his oath tt

cal way OF making treason odious. 1t will

the traitors for past offences, and provide se
curity tor the future,

for its object the repudiation of the nationa

These provisions are brief but very effec

THE NOMINATIONS ron SHERIFF.
AND CORONER.

AMI COttONEHs
The nomination election of the Union
party which took place on Saturday last, has
resulted in the selection of SAMUEL ALLEN
as the candidate for Sheriff, and BENJAMIN
7. BELLEw, for Coroner.
The gentlemen who offered themselves for
the suffrages of the party at the nomination
were all honorable, upright men, and it is
no small compliment to the successful candi
dates that they have been selected as the
acknowledgements of the Union party by such
an overwhelming majority,
Nr. Allen is among tho best citizens in the
county. He possesses every qualification to
fill the station in manner that will reflect
credit upon himself and promote the best
interests of the people. He has resided for
many years in our county, and his walk in life
has always been such as TO call forth the ad-
miration Of those with whom he had inter
course. He is universally respected by men
Of all parties and will be triumphantly
elected.
Benjamin T. Bellew, the candidate for
Coroner, is a high minded, honorable man
who, in the hour of his country's peril, en-
listed in the army, and rendered good ser.
vice in suppressing the rebellion. He never
shrGnk from the performance OF his duty,
but was ever found in the front rank battling
nobly for Liberty and Union. At the seige
Of Petersburg he received wound which
rendered II necessary TO amputatc his leg.
The loss Of the limb las incapacitated him

they will yield him generous support Mr.

The STRAWBERRY AND FLORAL FESTIVAL
of the ladies OF Hanover Church has been a
great success. The Hall is very beautifully
decorated. A canopy of flags covering th,
centre OF the room, under which a fountain
rising from marble vase on a grassy mount
which is a mass of ferns and flowers, sing
ing birds and tinkling water, is Unusually
attractive. The most striking feature of thu
affair is the grove in the rear of the Hall
1t seems impossible that the usual careless
appearance could be so marvellously chang
cd. The clean cut grass, the trees hun,
with colored lamps and lanterns, the group
seated at the tables, the throngs of ladies il
their summer costumes, the arm In arm
promenaders, with trees and stars above
make fairy scene such as we have rarely
looked upon. We have little doubt that th
rather romantic associations of the plac
will make future work and rewards to th
clergymen. The festival is in aid of tn
Mission Chapel in the First Ward. Thos
who fail to attend it will fail to help an ex
cellent cause, and will miss very beautiful
sight.
