MONEY.
PUBLIC LEDGER OFFICE,
MEMPHIS. Tenn, March 81, 1879.

As the first Of the month approaches
the demand for money increases, and
to-day the situation is rather close,
though not alarming. The bonks are, it
seems, providing means to hide all gilt
edge paper, discounting it at the regular
rates, but turn away ordinary borrowers,
compelling them to put their accept
ances on the street, where, owing to the
amount offered. There is lively bust
ness to-day at from 23@3l p cent. p
month. This rate lasts, however, only
as long as the pressing demand
is made, and by the 4th prox. the
same paper that now is offered at
the rates mentioned would easily
fad investment at 2 q cent. Exchange
is in better supply, though few banks
seem to be doing large share OF the
business. ACCOMMODATION transactions
to day between banks amounted to $25,-
600 at &c premium for Eastern, and the
counter rates are par buying and lc pre-
MUM selling. New Orleans commercial
bills are &c discount to par buying and
from l(qic premium selling for bankers
checks, though in one instance we
learned that customers were supplied at
par. Gold hoped suddenly this morn
ing from ll6s to III in New York, and
has been bought by dealers to-day at
from ll5Oll6. But little is being done
in local investments. There was some
talk about charter for ne, gas COM
many, as the LEDGER stated some time
since. The application for a charter
was fled to-day, the incorporators being
men of means and ability. No transac-
tons have as yet been reported in either
the old or new companys gas stock, for
the reason that there are few If any
sellers. There is q demand, however,
and notwithstanding the statement made
in the local columns Of the Avalanche
Yesterday morning that there could be
found Gayoso gas stock at less than the
sixties " we spoke of Saturday, we
have not to-day found q holder who
would sell even at zoe, and unless
the Avalanchian would sell bis

Last evening at the Grand 0pera
House Professor Il. V. Wilson, the test
aud clairvoyaut medium, delivered an
Interesting lecture on Spiritualism be-
fore large assemblagp Of ladies and
gentlemen. The Professor attempted
to refute the Christian idea Of the Deity
and denied that the Christian theory OF
salvation was correct. he commented
upon and ridiculed the Mosaic account
Of the creation, aud the unfortunate fall
Of Adam came in for a considerable
amount Of ridicule He insisted that
the Bible sustained the spiritual system
OF religion, but did not sustain the Chris
tiAn theory, and TO the discussion
Of these propositions he extended gem
eral invitation TO all polemics or Chris.
tian coniroversialisis. He did not ad-
vance any particularly new IDEAS, as
all those he stated can be found in the
works Of writer's on Christianity, Spirit
ualism aud ln6deliiy. The Professor
believes that the slavery question has
been the bone Of contention from the
days OF the Garden Of Eden down TO
the present. AT the close Of the enter.
tanning lecture he gave an exhibition OF
his powers as a clairyoYant medium, and
described in quite an accurate manner
not only the temperament but the his
tory Of well.known Memphian. This
astonished great number Of his audi
tors who could not conceive how such q
thing could be done by any other
except spiritual means. Our reporter
attended, he saw, he heard and he leaves
each auditor to form his or her own CON
illusions. To many Professor Wilson's
illustrations, arguments, deductions and
exhibition Of mediumistic powers were
satisfactory and convincing, while others
they did not so impress. Some persons
are more easily convinced, are less criti-
cal and analytical than others; or, in
deed, it may be that those most easily
convinced have the clearest, quickest
and most analytical minds, while those
OF hypercritical turn Of mind are always
the suspicious, doubling Thomases, who
on the subjects ofproof positive and prac.
teal tests are like Oliver Twist always
asking for more" The Spirtualists
claim that with all tests there are certain
conditions TO be observed, such as dark
ness for instance, when the bell-ringing
and exhibition of spirit faces take placei
aud with reference to information de-
rived from spirits, the clearest and most
accurate tests cannot always be OBJ
tanned. There IRE many tests, it is
claimed on the other side, that no me-
dunn will dare to risk, such, for instance,
as giving the verbatim contents of a
document locked up in safe; the
whereabouts Of lost treasures or papers
of value; nor will they risk foretelling
an event, such as death, revolution,
an earthquake, etc. The Spiritualists
claim that the system is not yet fully
developed, but is progressing daily to-
ward that goal, and it must be admitted
that mediums do many strange and won
derful things that cannot well be &C
counted for on scientific principles.

TIE RECENT ELECuONS.-AlthouSh
the recent State elections were comPar-
atively tame affairs the results indicate
a condition of public sentiment some
what modified rs to party polltlciahS'
The votes cast in the several States le-
ferred to were not so heavy as III tunes
of more heated political conflict, but the
proportion shows a decided change III
political influences. In Pennsylvania
the Republicans did not come up TO
their proportionate figures in the MAJOR
ity by which they carried the State. IN
Ohio the slight republican majority IN
the Legislature has been overcome by
the democrats, the democratic candl-
date for Governor elected, according to
latest accounts, and the State practical
ly changed in lis political aspect IN
Iowa the farmers oranges ostensioiy
Joined with the democrats, but the re-
suit being a republican victory shows
that the farmers were not really united,
though the republican majority was re
duced by more than ten thousand. The
election of the democratic Congressman
in Oregon is a decided democratic vic
tory, the issue being purely national and
the democratic majoritya heavy one.
The election for supreme Judge in Cali
ifornia was matter of local rather than
General interest, but the result being in
favor of the Independent or anti monop-
DIV candidate is suggestive of the natu-
raj course of public sentiment when
.:soulless corporations" carry their ava "!
