We annex the closing rates of sterling

Money for the greater portion OF the day was worth
coin interest on call ordinary mixed collateral
the alternate rate being 7, currency, though near
bank hours rates yielded a little and the market
closed at 697 per cent. No change in mercantile
paper The bank statement was a less favorable re-
turn than its predecessor of last week, and an
analysis shows that the banks have lost
S203, 400, the excess over legal requirements
Us per cent being reduced to 1925, 700
The loans have gained very largely, the deposits
being increased S4,OS2,GOO. The legal tenders are
higher showing that the course of currency is city
ward. The specie item was down S7S9,1oO, the coin
movement of the week covering the export of 1885,
s45 IA, and the payment into the Treasury in the
way of Customs 2,434,0OO. This pretty nearly
accounts for the loss The Treasury sold 100000
during the week, paying out 81 2l5OO0 in coin inter
est on the public debt, and $4,000 in redemption of
called bonds. The following shows the condition of
the New York City banks at the dates understatcd;

The Government bond market was strong and
higher at the close. The advance in prices for the
week, as will be seen from tables below, was I'M
usually large. The advance was most marked in
-Forties, and the aim of the bulls" appeared to
be directed particularly to that ISSUE and the New
Elves of 1881 OF course there is further necessity
for calling attention to the that inspired this
action of the bankers interested in the new Govern
ment loan but without these bonds selling at par nj

funding of the national debt. Fisk q Hatch report

'leman Benedict's closing quotations at 3 p. IN.

The gold market was very strong at the opening.
chiefly in the local influences heretofore and above
mentioned and sales were at 114sGll4!, but 1t
later became less firm and the price declined to 49,,
closing at that price bid. Very likely there have
been some sales of long gold to-day; at all events
there is nothing new in the days speculation. In
the gold loan market the rates paid have balances
carried over until Monday 6, 5, a. A., g. p l. 5,
and per cent to fiat. The Assistant Treasurer paid
out 5000 in called bonds and 100000 in coin in

Messrs. Winslow, Lanier g. Co. announce that the
price of the First Mortgage per cent Gold Bonds
of the Cincinnati, Richmond, and Fort Wayne Rail
road Company has been advanced to % and accrued
interest. The whole issue is 81 100000 $4,000 per
mile on a road completed aud in operation of which
only $4,000 remain unsold. The rapdity with
which these bonds have been taken (S1 100000 hav
ing been sold in less than four months) shows that
they are highly appreciated as unusually strong
security. Those seeking investment should avail
themselves of this chance at an early day, as the
balance of the loan is likely 20 be closed ont soon.
