We have again 60 record d most anx
ious aud distressing week TO all those
who are interested in the fluctuations
on tile Stock Exchange. And we regret
to announce several more failures part
ly caused by unsettled balances from
last account, and partly more immedi-
ately connected with the present settle
ment The total number Of defaulters
thus declared since the commencement
OF tho present difficulties now amounts
to about thirty-sixi u number larger
than has ever been reported, within so
short a period, even in II time of ex-
treme commercial panic 1t speaks,
however, very favorably for our London
Exchange, but these difficulties have
been caused, as rule, 10y the inability
or the unwihugness Of their constitu-
ents to meet the engagements into
which they had entered and not by any
reckless or haphazard speculation by
our London dealers On Thursday the
directors Of the Bank OF England were
obliged to alter the rate Of discount to
5. This rate had been in a great meas
ure already anticipated in the Open
Market, brokers having throughout the
week operated with extreme caution,
and the general currency was always
3D. to over the Officia minimum. To-
day Friday the usual quotation is 81
to per cent. even for well selected pa
per These rates for money being
double what they were a short time
since.
The Government Broker has contin.
ued to buy on account Of the Sinking
fund taking about E33,O00 every day
and a further sum for other Govern
ment account, the total amount thus
removed from the Market during the
past week beng about G2iG0o0
In spite Of these purchases, tie Eng.
lish Funds hayebeen heavy throughout
the week, and prices have huctuatec
from day to cay. But these transactions
have had good effect on the money
market, and kept the price Of Englisl

ohio Interest Laws.

For the benefit Of our, readers, who
may not know Snst what the interest laws
of Ohio are. we will state that an act
was passed by the general Assembly
May 4, 1863, allowing parties to pay on
contract "any rate not exceeding eight
per centum per annum, payable annual
ly.rl When no rate is stated, only six
per cent can be collected. The penalty
for taking a higher rate than the law al
lows Is only the excess Of interest over
the legal rate, as may be seen by the
following act passed February Is, 1850 :;
BE it enacted BY the General Assem-
bly, of the State of Ohio, That in all ac-
tions for The recovery of money, here.
