The wife of Mr.. Jones, Of the firm Of Scott
Jones s. Co., hardware dealers, Third street

The Gi,mer whishey Frauds.

The Washington correspondent of the
New York Times gives the following as only
one of the letters omitted by Mr.. Gilmer in
his published correspondence:
RICHMOND, VA, September 26, 1868.
"My Dear Sir,-l was panied to read in
the New York Herald certain statements
indicating that you were involved i'll the
Harland investigation in New York.
81 had heard of Mr.. Harland, but | will
not allow mysec to give credit to charges
as to you.
"If | can be of service to you, profes-
sionally or otherwise, let me know.
1t would be salutsry act to keep up a
heavy and continuous fight in this State. If
| had Mr.. Richie here, and had free scope,
I would soon flank the New York movement
as to you. :
"a bold and successful blow here wilE
in my opinion, be Of great service to you
and the Department. Let ne hear from
you fully, and send detective at once, or
allow me to name one here, who will be
true in the discharge of his duties-and as
friend Of yours-because under my abso-
lutte control. Really matters are suffering
here, and, as now situated, am helpless.
every truly yours, &C.,
"JOuS II. G1LMER."
lie says Mr.. Gilmer first went to Wash
ington to get Henry Smith appointed gau-
ger.
"Detectives were sent from Washington
to help him ferret out the frauds, hut all
the fraud they could discover was ia Gi'mer
himgelf. He caused one distillery to be
seized for violation of the law, and com
menced proceedings for its forfeiture but
the Collector, the District Attorney, and
the new Supervisor, after investigation, all
decided that there had been no violation OF
the law. Gilmer kept up his continuous
begging for money, aud finally demanded
$500 to reimburse himself for pretended
expenses. The Department paid this and
asked for the vouchers. These he refused
to give unless he was paid 81 900 more for
his services. This concluded his operations.
He never discovered q case of fraud that
would bear the scrutiny of an examination.
His reference to General Schofeld in the
opening of his correspondence is insuffera-
bic impudence. That officer repudiates him
entirely" .....

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

The New York money market works wits
extensive ease at the legal rate. II appears that
on Friday the combination which effected the
late stringency modified their designs, restored
boarded legal-tenders to the banks, and re-
versed the course of their speculation. The
first positive assurance of this change, as far
as IT affected the loan market. appeared in the
bank statement published Saturday evening.
On the two days preceding this change of tactics
affairs were given such an appearance as to
warrant the belief that the money mar ket was
on the eve OF another severe pressure, aud the
semblance was so perfect that II entirely DIS
armed suspicion as to the real course pur-
sued. Whether money Is TO remain conpara-
lively easy depends entirely upon the caprice
and interest OF the combination. The market
for commercial paper is still dull and unsettled
with business chiefly confined 10 choice ac-
ceptanCes running four months, which pass at

siderable realizing by purchasers who bon ght
