FINANCE AND TRADE.

THE BANKS were as quiet as usual
yesterday, but capitalists are drawing the
most happy 8uguTies from the excel
lent harvest we are counting on this
season, and from the great foreign de-
mgnd for our products. The New York
Herald says: "The strong upward
movement IN the grain trade which has
been going on for the last ten or twelve
days gives an unwOnted impulse to bus.
mess in what is always the duilest sea-
son Of the year, and is fitted to raise
hopes that we may soon see the end of a
long season Of staguatiOn. With an
abundant grain crop and a heavy and
unexpected foreign demand we may
look for quite 8 revival of general bust
ness at the beginning of autumn. A
lsige proportion Of the heavy purchases
OF grain which have had so stimulating
an effect, and have made the market
80 buOyant in the dullest season Of the
yesr, is in supply OF French orders,
proving that the destructive inundas
tons in the south OF France ere
the source Of this movement. Similar
disasters in Hungary and on a smaller
scale in England justify the expectation
that larger proportion OF the food Of
Europe Will be supplied by America than
IA any former year" All this is very
cOnsolatory, for il ever people wanted
chance at prosperity we do now. Ex-
change remains dull at par buying on
New York and selling at premium; on
New Orleans, ! discount buying, selling
at par. Gold was down to ll2s in New
York at nom; here brokers were paying
lll3@lll4. There were no transactions
Of interest in local securities, but $1,000 Of
Merchants insurance stock was offering
81 II, and $1,000 Memphis gas stock at
50. We again quote Shelby county scrip
at 70; fire and police scrip 81 IS; school
scrip at 9099l, bank Of Tennessee new
issue, %.
The COTTON MARKET yesterday wsS a
very slight STAIR, for rain was falling q
good part Of the day and orders were
few, OF the little cotton on the tables,
offers were free at the rates OF the pre-
ceding day.. The rain, and rumors Of q
very heavy rainfall about st. Louis,
caused al increase of anxiety as TO the
state Of The river. Our river column and
kilograms give the latest information.
As high river as we have now, at
time when valuable crops are approach
ing maturity, gives to the thought Of
q possible flood, double horror. Those
most acquainted with the river do not
appear TO expect a regular oveTiow-but
brimful river is certain. The closing
kilograms were as follows: New York
steady at l4sc. New Orleans dull
at l43c; sales, 50 bales; receipts, y bales.
Liverpool quiet at 6 15-l6d; Orleans,
1854; sales, 10000 bales, OF which
1000 bales were American. Sa-
