New York Money Market.
Ngw YORK, December 26, 6 P. NJ.

NEW DIRK, december 20, Z. III.
Business in financial and CONNER
cial circles to-day was very dull, as
usual, right after Christmas, but the
dullness was intensified by the driving
snow storm which had a tendency to
check transactions in all departments,
and effectually stop outdoor move
ments in produce and merch-
andise. The attendance at the
Stock Exchange and Gold Room
was comparatively slim and
many prominent brokers and operators
were absent from the street. On the
Stock Exchange New York Central
was prominent for it's strength and Pa
cific Mail for it's weakness, but other.
wise railway and miscellaneous specu-
lstiops was dull and devoid of any in
terest. In the Gold Room the speculas
ton assumed firmer tone in conse'
quence Of the shipments OF specie.
In produce and merchandise circles
the day was noted only for dullness,
and the export trade was checked by
the inability OF shippers to get goods on
shipboard. The monetary situation to-
day was marked by increased strin-
gency and sharp demand for money
from borrowers on call. Early in the
day brokers were supplied at I per cent
to ! 80 per cent per diem, but in the
atterL DON rates advanced ! per cent and
a large business was transacted at this
figure.
MONEY-Before 3 o'clock money
was loaned as high as 3 l6 to t per cent
in exceptional cases, and the closing
loans were at ! per cent per diem; time
loans in currency were quoted at J per
cent, with a commission of 3@4 per
cent for 80 days, and l0@llf per cent
for 60 DAYS; gold loans are quoted at /
at per cent for carrying for 30 to 6O
days, flat for 90 days; per cent for
use of gold for four months; ! per cent
for six months; 4@3 per cent for eight
months, and pei cent for the whole
year of 1873.
FOREIGN EXCHANGE-The mar.
ket was quiet and firm. In sixty day
bills very little business was transacted,
the prime bankers still ask 1921, but
their bills can be bought on the street
at 1893 and good bankers at 1921.
About 100000 sight bills were sold at
1lO4 and e70,00O cable transfers a:
ll036ll05.
GOLD-Was firmer and advanced
from liz to ll2t.
GOVERNMENT BONDS-The
market was firm and generally higher
in sympathy with gold and the increaed
investment. Orders to purchase sales
Of Cts were reported at ll62@ll7
l0-40s at lO9s@llO.
The Assistant Treasurer paid out to-
dav $645 900 on account of interest and
$4,000 in redemption Of 500 bonds.

the business of regular Dealers 10
answer that question I will only relate
how fairs are conducted nowadays
The trustees of q church finds out how
much money needs to be raised to meet
the current expenses. A meeting OF the
ladies of the church, is called and II Is
resolved to hold q fair. Committees
are appointed to carry on the work
There are committees on every thing
refreshments, supper, ice cream, fancy
articles useful articles, jewelry, silver
ware, toys, confectionery, flowers etc
EacI committee is expected to furnish
its own table, by soliciting donations
The consequence is the business men
are besieged by ladies from morning
till night, and they dare not refuse 10
Give something and if they give TO one
thew must TO all. The fair is held
The articles are cold; often for less
than the retail price; the fair sales
woman saying, "they were all gwen 10

gsip," and so the dealers stand oy anu
sse their goods sacrificed and they mus,
Ieen silent because it is all for the good

ia something amusing, but it has . saa
aide. The evil will finally cure iisell,
Churches are necessary to the wei'ale

This famous burlesque troupe Will com

Music or the twenty-second instant. This
is what the Louisville Courjer-Jourhu! says
of the company and their performances:
Miss Lydia has now sung her joliest songs
danced her most bewitching dances and
darted her sauciest side looks at two Lou
isyiiie audiences, and two Louisville audi
ences have lett the broad doors OF the Opera
House behind them with the pleasant con
sciousness OF two evenings pleasantly. if
not most protitably, spent. The entertain
ment offered by this company Is certainly a
very beautiful as well as an amusing one
and were il not that the popular palate
demands preponderancc Of the tarcical,
the spectacle could be made, with the ma
teTiai at hand. of the most enc hantlng and
gorgeous description.

The company that Miss Lydia has brought
with her is better and more complete than
the original troupe. Besides Harry Beckett
and Mrs Neathersby, there has been
grated upon the company Of two years
back very satisfactory addition of 1iaxen-
haired beauties with bewildcring bodices

company, altogether. is all that could

Lydia deserves liberal support for the ex-

But, decked with flowers, the church within
As summer time is sweet.
Ny earliest and my truest friend
To-day bride will be
Strew loves own roses i'll her path,
For worthy love is she.
And glad to Irvine her bridal wreath
OF orange flowers was l.
Though well know the wedding kiss
Is friendships last "goodby."
Her girlhocd's hopes and fears knew,
lis pleasures and its cares
But in wOmans highest bliss
No other woman shares.
And grateful that this JOY is hers
| do not gricve to see
Her willing fOotstep choose path
That leads away from me.
For well know the stars must fade
From out the sun-lit sky,
And evermore the wedding kiss
Is friendships last ''goodby !"
