FOREIGN ExCHANGE-The movement 10 Sterling
and Francs has presented nothing whatever
worthy OF special remark since our last. The
market has been but very poorly supplied with
commercial offerings, and the demand on the
part Of remitters has continued exceedingly re.
stflcted throughout. Rates have been main aimed,
however, owing TO the firmness of the New York
Gold and bill markets, and the subjoined sales
which embrace the total operations for the day,
disclose no reduction whatever in quotations.
