THE MARKETS.
NEW YORK, Sept. SO.-The Farragut
obBequies and the severe storm which
lasted all day, brought business nearly to
a stsnd-still. The Gold Exchange was
closed by virtue IF "a resolution passed
yesterday, but few brokers assembled
in the alleyway and transacted a. little
business on the basis Of 113 x to ia.
Notwithstanding the resolution passed
BY the Stock Exchange to call the list as
usual if the weather should be stormy,
the doors were not opened, and there are
no quotations to report. The Produce
Exchange was open, but some Of the
leading houses dealing there was 80 idig-
nant at this want of respect for the heroic
dead, that they refused to open their
samples. There was but1a limited trade,
and prices were almost nominal. Wheat
was unsettled, and rather favored buyers,
in new spring, and old winter.
