Nothing that calls for special remark has tran.
spired in the money market to-day. Gold opened
in New York to-day at l44a against l442, the
closing rate last evening. At II n. II stood at
l444; at Pm it closed at l44l. Offerings Of cash
Gold in this market are fair but the demand Is

UNcURRENT NoTEs AND SECURITIEs.-T is
no material variation to notice in the rates Of city

sellers manifest no disposition to realize. Bank OF
Louisiana notes continue wholly neglected, aud
