Inquiry for all textile fabrics con-

MONEY AND STOCKS.
Wall street was excited this after
noon by rumors, none of which can be
traced to any reliable authority, such
as Boutwell's resignation with at first
George II. Stuart and subsequently A.
T. Stewart as his successor, and revi-
val of the story'that per cent certih-
Gates are to be retired instead OF bonds.
These reports occasioned depression
and general decline in prices. The eff
feet, however, was chiefly on the gold
market. The Brazilian firm alluded to
yesterday will make private settle
ment, and is called a suspension. The
name is said to be James Patrick & Co.,
who are also in the California trade.
One other private settlement is reported
to day.
MoNEY-Fairly active and steady at
7 per cent, with comparatively few ex-
ceptions at per cent.
STERLING-Weaker; prime bankers
nominally at 10936a1094; sight at 11ONa
1lO7s.
GoLD-Greatly excited by the rumors
noticed above and is 1c lower. The
price opened at 1875, but fell to 14011;
closed at 1885; carrying rates 7aS per
cent and 1872 flat. The heavy sales OF
large speculative holders, yesterday,
and the announcement by the Secretary
of the Treasury OF the increased sales OF
gold also, had an effect on the market.
GOVERNMENT STOCKs-Have been az
fected by the prevailing excitement
and the fall in gold, and are lower.
