THE N. Y. MONEY MARKET YESTERDAY.
From the N. Y. Herald.

From the NJ Y. Herald.
"The gold market was strong at the opening, in
answer TO a further advance in the rates OF eX-
change; but upon the discovery that the street
transactions in sterling were an eighth to quarter
per cent below the nominal market there were free
sales, under which the price Of gold fell Off from
1865 to 11424. The transactions were again heavy
and the decline brought in buyers again, under
which there was a rally to 11bA, the advance being
that the Banking Committee would introduce no
measure likely to produce contraction The Assist
ant Treasurer disbursed 900 on account OF the
May interest," making total Of 81, ,000,0 900 so far
'"The rates in the gold loan market were irregular,
ranging as high as per cent. and down to u per
cent for carrying with exceptional transactions at
fiat for borrowing.
'The leading bankers advanced the rate for sixty
day sterling bills to 109H, but great many bills
bought at lower figures by dealers In this class OF
speculative investment came upon the market, so
that street tranfactions 'out OF second hands oc-
Cured ar 10914@1092S.
1.-THE demand for money was more active to-day,
and in some instances borrowers on stock cOaterals
paid per cent? but the bulk of business on miscel-
laneous securities at per cent, and Govern
paper was without new features
"The Government market declined three-eighths
to half per cent. sales to realize the recent ad-
vance and on sales against an expected return of
bonds from Europe, the decline in gold rendering
the market heavy at the noon and afternoon boards
The lower prices brought in fresh buyers from the
banks and moneyed corporations who had been
waiting for a reaction, and under these purchases
the market closed up strong again, The dealings in
Governments at the board, on the street, and over
the counter must have reached several millions"

THE RICHMOND HORROR.
The Feeling In the City-A season of Gloom.


The Richmond Dispatch of yesterday says:-
Yesterday was one OF gloom; but 1t brightly dis
played the virtue OF resignation amongst stricken
people, The merchants voluntarily closed their
stores. The funeral professions were seen at every
hour vending their way to the churches and burial
places; and these signs OF distress, with the add
tion OF toling bells, told that there was woe and
agony in the city. The day was one OF the saddest
we have ever seen.
The number OF burials overtaxed the undertakers,
and there were not enough carriages to accommo-
date the professions. Hacks and hearses were
driven at quick speed, and funerals trod so closely
upon one another that there was much delay-some
being thrown out OF time an hour or more waiting
the asst mblage on the square was very large {;
but the ofhchrs and speakers being placed in the
south porch OF the CAPITOL and the people ranged
the Square upon leyei, some me- twenty he ieet below
the hearers and the speakers was not very lively
True, the sentiments of those above and those below
were kindred and devout. Had they not been, the
speakers could hardly have aroused the hre OF their
audience, addressing 1t to so much disadvantage
But dumb show to the stricken heart is as impress
slve as words.
Never did people show a more profound and
proper sense OF public distress Inc great mass
that death, come how and when 1t may, is solemn
and admonitory, and never TO be treated with ire
Verence It is the debt that all must pay, and since
1t levels all men, 1t arouses common sympathy and
charity amongst the human family thus bound TO
one lrrevocable fate. When 1t comes In whole
sale manner and suddenly envelopes community
in woe, the lesson is 50 much the stronger. But

the burning OF a theatre or church, the falling OF
the noor OF a courtroom, or the engulflng OF a
sbiplOad OF emgrants, 1t Is the grossest lmpety IN
man TO attempt TO interpret the Divine WIN beyond

FINANCE AND COMMERCE..
EVENING TELEaRAPH OFFIoE, I

The city money market retains the moderate
activity noted for several days past, with
slight improvement in the demand to-day both
for call and time accommodations. The balances
at the banks however are quite liberal, with a
corresponding ease in the rates. There is, more
over, an ample supply of funds at the usual
private sources, and borrowers find no difficulty
In supplying their wants at the stereotyped
rates. The enhanced value of stocks tends to
make lenders cautious in negotiating this class
of loans, but with due allowances for imitation
and possible depreciation in values, they operate
very freely and no pressure is felt in the
market
The gold market is less active and rather
weak this morning; sales at the opening were
