The money market continues quiet but
we notice a fair demand for discounts, and
a sensible shrinkage in deposit lines, com
pelling sOme institutions to be less liberal
TO their customers. There is, however, no IN
dicatiOn of any strIngency. Many cash
balances have been reduced by remittances
to the North and the West, the latter COW
ering the proceeds of aeceptances on ship
ments of -four and other produce, on which
the receivers have not yet realized. Our
tobacco factors. appear to be easy, having
been relieved by recent sales, but are, never
theless, carrying a pretty heavy amount,
reducing deposits accordingly. The depOs-
its of the sugar trade, also, have been less
than usual, but some institutions, neverthe-
less, show little variation in their cash
resources. We continue to quote first
class paper, with sound cOllaterals, at a 10
y cent y annum; ii a II for less desirable
names, which can hardly be ciassed as
second grade; Pals for second grade;
-0lO for first-class mortgages, and Pa

EtiOt Expected.
NoRTHPoRT, L. l., March l, 1872.
Considerable excitement has been occasiOned here
to-day owing TO the determined manner in which
the labOrers working on the NOrthpOrt section OF
the Shutdown and Norihport Ranroad have acted.
Some time ago they made clustering kind OF
demand for an increase OF pay, and when re-
fusa TO cOncede to their terms was handed to them
they became demonstrative and used strange and
unnecessary threats.
This morning the question was again mOOted and,
any advance in the rates OF payment being firmly
refused. forty out OF gang OF sixty men "threw up
their hats" and left WORK. The remaining twenty,
however, desired to continue at their work. till the
end OF the week at least but the majority would
permit OF no "dallylngn and the ODstreperOus
minority were driven from the works by stones and
pieces OF rail- which bruised and cut the men very
much.
Tomorrow the reDellious gang Is to be paid on
and new gang Is to he at once engaged, with
which, including those forced from their WORK, the
contractor, Francis Sampica, determines TO carry
ON the work.
until their demands nave been compiled win, ana

thorites anticipate trouble, II not Dloodsned.

COLUMBIA, S. T., March l, 1872.
L. s. Kingsley, who Is here experimenting the
construction OF the United States Court House and
Post ONCE last Saturday issued orders to the stone
cutters TO the effect That they should work ten
n Ia m md off no or nf arch daVi
The men at once held q meeting to discuss the
matter, and, after adopting resolutions resenting
the right Of the to give such orders,
| they struck work and lett the buildings
subsequently q committee waited on the superin-
tendent and informed him that the law OF Congress-
applicable TO all public works, provides that they
should work only eight hours a day, and hence That
1t was q violation OF the statute to compel the ten
hour SERVICE TO which they could not and would not
submit.
The strike will occasion considerable delay In the
performance OF the contract, and many OF the men
who are thus thrown out OF work come from long
distance to tins pace nevertheless they have left and
dispersed to their homes.
