John Everitt, Esq.
Mr.. Everitt in declining to become q
candidate owing TO his engagements in
this country, etc, suggested the name Of
another party, who was waited upon by
the committee, and chosen as the Lib
eral candidate.
The regular monthly meeting Of the
Chamber Of Commerce will take place on
Monday next, and 1t is of the utmost i'm
portance that all members should attend.
The different committees appointed at
the last meeting, will make their reports.
Every merchant in the city is directly
interested in this matter; and now that
we are upon the eve OF what promises to
be prosperous business season, we hope
that they will spare enough time t. be
pre- ssnt at the meeting on Monday.
Exchange is steady, both buying and
selling with tendency to more liberal
offerings. Eastern is taken at par to I
premium selling at premium. North
ern and Western cities sold at / prem.
Banks and stocks are nominally the
same as at our last, though the heavy
offerings of city bonds has broken down
the market, and to-day buyers could not
be found at 54955c.
City scrip is quiet at 74@75c buying;
selling st 7S9SOc.
County warrants dull to day; buying
at 54955c; selling at $4,000.
Police scrip zoe buying; selling at 75c.
Gold in New York opened at l435, but
Immediately went up &c and remained
steady until the close. We quote at l4ll
@l42c buying selling at 1423@I43. The
noon New York dispatch quotes as
follows Coupons of 'SI, Is!
do 1872, lag ; do '64, 1Is; do '65,
I2I; new issue, ct do 81, 50; 1O-40s, S!
1905, q and 81, l09; new Tennessees,
81 old, IS Governments strong.
In Liverpool at the opening to-day cot
ton was quiet; Uplsnds l0s, Orleans l0s.
This wss the only dispatch received from
that market. Tne New York market at
the opsniEg was dull and Nominal. It
was tending downward at noon, and
closed dull with further downward ten
dency. Low Middiings 29le, Middllngs,
903c; other grades Unchanged. Sales,
$50 bales; weeks receipts, 795 bales
gross, 1855; receipts at all United States
ports, 1000 bales stock, 1880 bales.
Our market was astonished by bale to-
day. The largest list we know OF, and |
for which 29le was recently refused, was |
sold to-day at 90. 1t embraced forty |
bales of barely Middlings. This was the
only feature in to days Market and the
transaction robs the balance Of the sea-
son Of all interest there being nothing
left to sell.
