The New York Tribune says in its money
article of the 18th instant "The specula-
tive movement on the stock exchange is
less decided, and buyers for the moment are
less eager. The crop argument is as good,
if not better, than ever, but it is evident
that buying on this line has become ex-
hausted, and that a new story must be
found, upon which recent purchases can be
unloaded at profit. The money market
has apparently touched its lowest summer
range, and no further aid can be looked for
in this Quarter On the other hand there
is certainty that the movement of the
cotton, wool and grain crops will drain the
Atlantic cities, where alone money is cheap,
of currency, and give to lenders, in place
of four per cent, seven on call, and smart
commission indirectly in addition. Under
the national banking law there is not per-
mitted periodic expansions to move the
crops, such as were shown under the old
State laws, where no limit was known ex-
cept the credit of the borrower, and the
prudence or rashness of the lender. At
this time it is conceded by bankers that a
full crop of all the staple articles is to be
marketed upon an amount of bank credits
and currency wholly inadequate at the
l'iC0CiL sCdlS VI Vi iOF
the purpose. Following natural laws, the
supply of currency and credits being I'M
equal to the calls upon them, rates of in
terest should advance, and prices fall, until
the available capital can move the crops.
1t should not be forgotten that while the
time for moving the crop approaches, the
Treasury is paying off the compound notes,
which hold such an important position in
the reserve of legal tenders in bank, thus
making the banks, at time when more
currency and bank credits are needed, less
able to extend them to the public The
Treasury is steadily contracting the legal
tender money, and from the customs reve-
nue., internal taxes, and the sale of bonds
will be able to perform its duties, and work
back to specie payments vigorously. The
ability to pursue this course will advance
the buying power Of the now decreasing
voIumn of paper money, and people cannot
be too careful in making new engagements"

MORE BLOOD.

Shooting Of the Notorious Guerrilla,
Nick Carney, Rt CIarEsviIle-ERd
Whisky at the Bottom Of 10, and no
"UniOn'' Man Concerned.
Another Of those bloody tragedies which
we have 50 often Of late been called upon
to record, occurred at GAINESVILLE last Sat-
urday night Nick Carney, during the war
a member of one Of the partisan bands who
won a terrible name in the annals Of guer-
riUa warfare, was shot dead by a young
man employed as bar keeper in Jack Hale's
restaurant. On a previous occasion, there
had been a difficulty between the two, and
Carney, while drunk, had drawn brace of
revolyers upon the bar-keeper. At about
eight o'clock Saturday night, Carney en-
tered the restaurant intoxicated, and called
for whisky, which the bar-keeper refused.
The drunken man at once drew a revolver,
and as he did so, the young man, in self
defense, also drew one, and fired. Carney
fell, the ball passing through his right lung,
and inhicting a mortal wound. At last
accounts he was lingering in great agony,
and ere this has doubtless passed into
eternity.
As a citizen, Carney was sociable and
clever, and when free from the influence of
liquor, was quiet and peaceable.
