FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

The stereotyped "all quiet on the Rhine
which is sc ineNplicable TO the impatient dealers
in the New York Geld Room in depTiving the
market Of material tor speculative movements.
has rendered the gold premium more sensitive
the past few DAYS 20 the reports sf the quota
tons Of fve-twenties in London. Hence the
gold quotations Saturday were closely sympa-
thetic with the latter Influence. Dishonest use,
moreover, seems TO have been made Of IL, for
the leading houses were i'm receipt Of most con-
Trajectory reports. At one and the same time
Saturday these conflicting kilograms quoted our
bonds 19h and ~. The recipients of the former
bought and 81 the latter sold. As the higher
quotations were subsequently confirmed the
matter was referred TO a special meeting of the
Gold Exchange Saturday afternoon. which re-
suited in the appointment of committee. COM
prising Messrs Hodgkin, Edwards and Tucker,
with instructions 10 investigate fully the
origin of the bogus kilograms, and power to
eNpend 5000 in pursuance Of that end.
The lowest price was made before the board,
the extreme fluctuations OF the day being from
1l9 TO 120k. The latter quotation, might be
inferred. was made on the fraudulent announce
ment OF 19k for fve-twenties in London. The
lower previous quotations were due 10 the
heaviness Of foreign exchange and extensive
speculative sales on the prospect Of a peaceful
settlement Of the France-Prussian diffidulty.
The large decrease of specie in the banks
induced an advance to l20N after the board,
but the market finally closed at I29.

GEN. FARNswoRTH, GEN. BUTLER AND THE
PATRICK LKTTER.-Hon. John f. Farnsworth
publishes a letter in the Chicago Tribune, in
reply to that of Mr.. B. +. Patrick. recently
published, in which MIR. FaTnsworth IN was charged
with receiving g, 800 from the Fort Wayne Rail
road, as consideration for his sending his regi-
ment-the Sth Illinois cavalry-oyer that road
in the year 1862. The inference TO be drawn
from Mr.. Patrick's letter was that General
FarnswOrth converted the money 10 his
own use, though that was not asserted.
General Farnsworth says that the amount
which he received from the Fort Wayne Rail
road was 81 500, instead of a, 500; that IL was
received for the use of the regiment, and applied
solely to that purpose, the larger portion of il
being received and disbursed by the Regimental
Quartermasterj that the matter was fully ex-
planned, at the time, TO the special conf
mittee of the House of Representatives
on government contracts, both by himself
and by Mr.. Payson, of the Fort Wayne road;
that he (Farnsworth) never converted a dollar
OF it to his own use; but, on the contrary, ex-
pended that and large additional sum out OF
his own funds, for the benefit of the sth Illinois
cavalry regiment, in procuring articles necessa-
~ to their comfort not furnished 10y the War
Department.
