TUESDAY, Jan. 2O-G z. M.}
The stock market to-day promptly responded to
the imitation debate in Congress yesterday. 1t twas
strong at the opening and so continued during the
greater part OF the day. although the close was at
a decline. II that intellectual body called the
National Legislature were manipulated by the
greenbacks OF the half dozen operators who are
moving stocks up and down; If the resolutions ill.,
trodueed and circulated by telegraph throughout
the country were written in Wall street; II the
financial soul of the country depended on the
puisatons that mark its strength or weakness In
Wall street, there would be little hope for the
average speculatOr who now depends on the back
ing and filing OF Congress ior his Judgment, and
on the peculiar figures OF the Treasury for
his facts Fortunately, however, there is a
conservative influence at work among our polt-
ical magnates. and it may yet be maae TO appear
that instead OF requiring more currency the true
secret of the situation is to protect and give
supreme value to that which we already possess.
For illustration 1t ia unnecessary to go beyond our
present money market, in which it will be seen that
paper is even now drug, mere stinulant to
speculation In stocks and the products OF the
country. What we want Is not more money but
healthy trade In response to laws that will en-
nance the value OF the present currency and
through an improved banking system extend its
usefulness. Specie payments will come In their
not creation; OF enterprise, not of force; and all
the legislation in Chrlstend0m viii not bring about
the desired result until the mercantile world dis
covers that the nation Is earning more than 1t ex
ponds and economizing that which IL accumulates.
THE MONEY MARKET.
Money was freely offered to-day at per cent,
and in many instances without takers. The banks
are eager in their search for investment in this
dine, aud millions OF dollars, so to speak, went a
begging. We have before stated that such an easy
condition of money affairs has not been known at
this season OF the year in the memory of the Oldest
hobtts1ds of the street. Discounts were as usual
and per cent-and the supply was unequal to the
demand. Foreign exchange closed frmer at 4.s29
a 4.s3 TOT prime bankers sixty day sterling and
$50 4,s6s for demand.
THE GOLD MARKET.
Gold to-day showed more than usual strength,
and something OF the influence OF combinations
which ON the face appear to have been formed for
the purpose OF advancing the price. The advance
was from HE to HE, and predictions are de-
cidedly bullish. The rates paid for carrying were
6, 6, 51k, 4 and per cent.
