The New York Herald this morning ssys:-
''There is undlminished ease in the money
market, Notwithstanding the enlarged demand
from the Stock Exchange, and the general rate
transactions being at four and six respectively,
and the lower rate confined to balances left with
the leading dealers In Government securities.
The discount line affords very little employment
for capital, and the close scrutiny to which COM
mercal paper is subjected causes the best
grade only to be negotiable at the banks, and
this is quoted at six and seven per cent. The
Treasury is disbursing the interest and principal
of the compound interest notes which fell due
on the 10Th instant amounting to fifteen mil
lions, as well as the six millions due on the
third series OF the seven-thlrty loan, very
slowly, owing to the want of employment for
the money at this and the minor financial
centres"
