WALL STREET,


MONDAY, Dec. 100 +. NJ
On Change to-day wheat was without specially
new feature. Sellers and buyers were strongly dl-
verse In opinion ana the market inactive. Cotton
was buoyant on better advices from Liverpool, and
closed strong at an advance OF 14c. a 80.
MONEY EASY.
The expectation that the late monetary stringency
had passed by, induced by the relaxation so palpa-
bly, felt on Saturday, was not doomed to disap-
pointment; but the money market still retained
very natural relic Of feyershness after
50 violent a disturbance OF ITS current. Hence to-
day the rates on call were irregular, although
grayitating In their general course Co lower
figures borrowers who were so cautiously
apprehensive OF the future OF the days busi-
ness as to make their engagements carly in
the day paid, In most instances, seven per cent
gold, or seven per cent currency, plus ''commis-
sions'' OF l-32 1-l6 per cent. The last mentioned
rate was purely exceptional, and paid only where
the collaterals or borrowers were not ordi-
narny good. Az the last board, when the
bulk OF business Is done In loans the rate
was seven gold TO seven currency. Finally,
as the time for closing the banks approached. the
lenders seemed TO be in large majority, and
there was a pressure OF balances to the street,
under which the rate fell 10 six per cent with
exceptional transactions at nve. Accounts were
made up at an early hour to-day and the relief was
strongly apparent. The recent agitation has natu-
rally checked dealings in commercial paper, for
which rates have advanced, anu prime double
names are now quoted at 81 per cent discount.
GOLD VERY DULL--ll0& 1l0A.
The monotoncus progress of events in Europe and
the diversion OF speculative interest 10 the Stock
Exchange have Withdrawn attention from the gold
market, which was suffered to nuctuate within very
narrow lims-yz., Il of one per cent, the quotation
standing 1ios. lloa nearly the whole day. AS
compared with the average of the previous week
these figures show decline, and hence, when the
cable which brought w fresh quotations OF our
bonds In London. showing an advance to
SS4 8S5s for the Issues Of 1862 gold
fell no lower, because the feeling existed that the
Improvement had been anticipated and discounted.
Even the reports of resurrection OF the French
military yigor and OF brilliant French sores at Paris
failed TO awaken any sp eculative enthusiasm, and
the market closed as It opened The changes on the
two igures OF The day are shown in the tablet
