NEW YORK, October 8.-The Rev. DIR. j.
a. Penneman, late Of the Woodbridge
Episcopal Church, New Jersey, with his
wife, was received into the Catholic Church
on Sunday at Summit, in that State. The
Doctor was formerly Unitarian, originally
from Massachusetts.
Stories of Tweed's fight are again cur
rent.
Arrived - Manhattan, Niagara, Zodiac,
Morehead City, California.
Arrived out-AIgeria, City of Montreal
Rhine, Strasburg and Leipsig.
On Saturday, While the steamers Charles
ton and South Carolina were being loaded,
one of the cases gaped open, and it was
discovered TO contain fireworks.
CustOmhouse officers thereupon made e.
animation, and found several cases contain
ing fireworks Of every description, and
other manufactures from gunpowder.
These boxes were invOiced as fancy
goods and were aCCordingl ~ seized. 1t is
thought that in this way the steamer Bien-
vile was set on fire, as the shippers of
these goods have been forwarding by South
ern vessels for some time.
The treasury operation of yesterday has
not been entirely closed up. Of the five
million gold sold, about three million five
hundred thousand has been taken up. The
outflow of this gold and legal tender notes
caused an easier feeling in the market to-
day for call loans, although no increased de-
mand in mercantile paper at lower rates
has been heard of as yet. On call the bulk
OF the business was at gold TO 1872
early in the day, but later became
the general rate, and before the close of
bank hours there was temporary decline
to 3, followed by an advance to Sac Elk
change strong and decidedly higher in the
morning, when some sixty days sterling
was quoted at S12. In the afternoon the
market weakened and closed at 81. Gold
opened at 1923, and gradually sold up to
1l39s, closing at 1874 0l133B. Loans | to
per cent for carrying, but later l-64 to 2
per cent was paid for use.
The Express says it is the general impress
sion around the City Hall that William M
Tweed has left the city not to return for
trial in the Oyer and Terminer Court on
Monday or the general session at a later
period
