THE MONEY MARKET. There was a very
full demand for money yesterday, The ratio
to be paid for it being altogether second
Nry consideration. the primary purpose be-
ing TO find those who had money TO lend.
On call, on the street, IL per cent. was paid
OH Government collateral with very little
! Offering Mt even that high rate. The banks
have loaned down to the legal reserve, and
say below that they dare not go. At New
York ,hc banks have lost largely of their
plain legal tenders, while the increase Of
specie has increased the proportion Of Ger.
titcatcs bcyoud the per ccntage allowed by
law. Owing TO tins fact the Treasury has
lnd TO redeem, whiting tho current month,
Sll ,62l 900 OF tho per cent. certificates.
These redcmp,ions must have n very mpor
tnnt bearing upon tho inlmcdiatc future Of
the money market for as the certificates
have bocn decided by The Sccrctrr% of the
Treasury to be non -issurablc THETA cancel.
lation amounts to contraction, to that ex
t.nt, of the lcga! tender circulation, Such
largo contraction occurring suddcnly in
the midst Of tho crop movements, aud 81
simultaneously with cxtrnncous tampcring
with tho money market, is not unlikely to
produce more inconvci cncc than hns vet
been developed. The impression was more
general yesterday that the present stringcn-
cy, is not so local Or 50 temporary as was
generally supposed three or four days ago.
There is. no doubt that Spectators, aided
by banks, havo done much to aggravntc the
stringency, but tho scarcity in the money
market is uNon Ms, ana while il must ncccs
sarily impair credit aud affect all prices,
cannot be easily or speedily removed. Con.
iidcncc, while most rcrishabc is Of slow
growth. Those who are compelled to bor-
VOW ihtheir Business will shoY wisdom by
extending their preparations some distance
into the future, for nm casy money market is
not MS near as could be hoped. Economise,
and rs far as possible, avoid debt, should
now DO the universal rulo Of action. Tho
operations in tho stock market yesterday
point In that direction. Business was light
and much less speculative than t. has been.
Tho share list was loss active at about tho
previous days prices, except Readng.-
Lehigh and Camdon and Amboy, all Yhoh
wore q fraction higher. Company bonds
were quiet, md State and City loans un-
changed. Government bonds were firm yos-
