The local Money market is moderately easy to-day,
rency. The banks still continue in a conservative
course preferrng to loan their funds on call rather
than on time. The Stock Board thus continue to
monopolze their favors and business men forced
to seek relief In the outside market. There Is no
lack OF funds, however, but the rates remain firmer
than circumstances would seem to justifYi

NEW YORK MONEY MARKET.

The following extracts show the state Of the New
York money market yesterday
From the Herald.
"The money market was quiet and steady at per
cent. The demand was moderately active, but was
fully met at the legal rate; no exceptions above or
below this figure, though it is probable that few
loans on Government collaterals to prime houses
were made at per cent Commercial paper was
dull, with the discouning rate ranging from to IL
per cent Much uneasiuess was felt al renewed re-
ports that warrants OF arrest had been issued for
those implicated in the recent usurious operations.
"Foreign exchange was maintained at firm rates,
and at an advance Of an eighth per cent for sixty
day sterling, owing TO the easier condition of the
London money market. The range of the rates was
as follows :ISterllng, sixty days commercial 1091{

'"1he anticipation OF the Government purchase for
the sinking fund, as well as the reduction of the
Bank Of England rate Of discount, produced strong
market for Government bonds at the opening and
the '67s sold high as 1908. The large amount
offered at the Sub-Treasury led to weaker feeling
later in the day, but the advance in London to s24
checked the decline, and the market closed steady

to the reduction OF the Bank OF England of dis

without excitement, to 1867, from which it reacted

Destructive Fire in Ohio.
CLEVELAND, July 16.-A fire last night on the
Erie and Atlantic and Great Western Railroad,
in this city, destroyed twenty or thirty cars
loaded with crude oil and coal oil, said to belong
to RockafellOr & Rems, Flagler Clarke, Payne
& Co., and Critchley, Fawcett q Co., for East
ern parties. The total loss is from 5000 to
$1,000, with but little insurance, if any. The
railroad loss is heavy. The cause of the fire was
probably from lamp in the hands of the train
inspector.
Tennessee Politics -Fx-President. johnson

His PrOspects.
Despatch to The EUeninJ Telegraph.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. July 16.-Ex-President
johnson arrived in the city yesterday from East
Tennessee. He has several appointments to
speak in Middle and West Tennessee before the
election. He is delighted with the present stu
alton in the State, and although he says litt
about his own aspirations, there is little doubt
that he has desire for the United States Sena-
torship. Should there be conservative majority
in the Legislature, as is not unlikely, he will
probably have Emerson Etheridge and Bal
ley Peyton as rivals for the place. But there is
no doubt that Andy will secure the place.
In this county there are thirty radical candi-
dates for the House and seven for the Senate
The gubernatoral canvass still goes on briskly
Stokes strength appears to be somewhat on the
wane, but his friends claim that he will receive
a majority of from 35, 600 to 100000

MINISTER BASSETT.

PORT AU PRINCE, June 22-The steamer City OF
Port au Prince arrived here from New York the
14th iDst having on board as passenger Mr. Bassett
United States Minister Resident and Consul General
to Hayt. This gentleman being the first colored
man ever appointed by the United States Govern
ment to represent their interests In foreign coun-
ment. SO far from being badly received here
as was in advance reported by some OF the New
fattering to him and to the great and powerful
nation he represents. He has been feted and dined
and publicly and privately received with the greatest
distinction and honor. Instead OF the appointment
proving insulting, as was foretold, TO the cOlored
race occupying this government, 1t has been con-
WED with each other in extending to him the right
hand OF fellowship and hospitality. Mr.. Bassett is
now the guest OF Mr.. Hoster, the present ncum-
bent of the Office and is awaiting the return here OF
President Salnave to present his credentials and
take possession Of his Office

The New Jersey Frmit Crop

From the Trenton Gazette, July ID.
From all this region we hear very good report OF
the prospects for fruit Early in the season it was
feared that the yield OF apples would be but small,
as large portion OF the bloom was blown OFF or
blasted 10y easterly Storm just as the fruit was
setting. But these fears have proved comparatively
groundless probably no more bloom was lost than
was desirable for the success OF the crop. Peaches
as III former years, but from the reports from the
peach-growing districts, there appears to be every
prospect Of good YIELD SO far, fruit trees OF all
kinds have been unusually free from the ravages OF
worms and insects. The berry crops have been are,
and will be large. The strawberry season Is over,
and the growers certainly ought TO be satisfied with
the result for the yield larger than ever before.
RaspbeTries, blackberries, and huckleberrles also
give unusually large crops, as large proportonatey
that OF the strawberries and the latter exceeded
the estimates of growers, Dealers and frelghters.

The Appraisoment of Property.

The bill to provide for the appraisement
Of the real estate in the City OF Charleston,
introduced by Alderman Voigt at the last
meeting of City Cuutcll, provides simple
plan for obtaining just valuation of the
real property in the city. Three properly
qusl,f. d appraisers are to be appointed by
the Mayor, and the real estate owners in
eacn ward are TO elect two Of their number
auxiliary appraisers for the ward These
auxiliary appraisers, with the appraisers
appo,n,ed by the city, form the "Bosrd Of
appraisers of Real Estate for 1S69-70
The general rule to govern the appraisers
appears to be fair and proper, and the rate
of compensation for the Board is moderate
enough. Toe sppraisenent must be com
p elad by December 81, and an alphabetical
list Of all the taxpayers in the city is then
to be published in book form
W. gee no ohj-c'ion whatever Ito the bill.
as far as it applies to the appraisement Of
real estate. At present, most Of the real
estate in the city is valued too high, and,
although for some persons valuation will
be low enough, the system proposed by
Alderman Voigt is 30 clearly equitable tia.
The Charleston daily news. [volume] (Charleston, S.C.) 1865-1873, 1869-08-31

II will leave no room for reasonable COM
plant.
In addition to the provisions for the ap-
praisement Of real property, Alderman
Voigts bill provides that census OF the
city population shall be taken, showing the
population Of each ward, the number OF
males and females, and the number of males
and females of each race Of tWenty'one
years of age and over. The State census
is now taking, and the United States census
will be taken next year. Yet, in order that
we may know how we stand and what pro-
gress the city has made, we shall be glad
to begin at once an Independent census;
provided, only, that the census'takers are
80 intelligent and careful as to make the
census, when completed, worthy Of oonfi-
dence and trust The State census is tak-
ing in slovsnly way, and city census on
the same pattern would be delusion
and snare. If Alderman Voigt will give
us steady and careful men as oensus'takers'
his whole bill will deserve public support
and the prompt approval Of Council.

Southern securities were dull but strong. The
market is firm on account OF the fattering cot

NEWS says that the twelve cotton States will
this year show more true prosperity than any
other section of the world, and shows that this
years cotton crop will amount to 100000
bales, and that the average value OF all the
CROPS will amount to si1ty-tour dollars per
head OF the population. South Carolina is
doing even better than this average, and will
yield this year products worth $4,000, 900, or
an average Of about SIS per head. The rice
crop of Louisiana is estimated this year at not
less than 20 900 barrels. Before the war the
