at New York this morning at 1884, against l3y
Saturday evening. At IL A. NJ. it was still ln-
changed and at P. NJ. il closed at 1879. The de-

FOREIGN ExcHAHGE.-The movement ia cotton
during the past three days mas tended to increase
the offerings Of commercial sterling and Francs,
as the principal purchasers of the former have
been for foreign account, and rates Of both the
latter have slightly declined. The market is still
rather inactive, however, and transactions since
our last included only the appended amounts, VIZ.

quiet and firm market underline above heading.

UHcURRENr NOTES AND sEcURIrIEs-HOlders
OF City Notes are yet awaiting the action of the
present so-caled City Council or the installation
OF the recently elected boards. 0feriogs of all
denominations are light and there appears to be
bot little II any deposition TO press sales. At the
same time. we heard of but few buyers, aud In
fact there is no evidence of any actual improve
ment. All other Uncurrent Notes are wholly
overlooked, and the movement in Stocks and
Bonds is still partially suspended. Sales to-day
