The offerings for discounts were reported
moderate by some of the banks, but gener
ally the demand was steadily maintained.
On the street the inquiry was perhaps not
80 strong as yesterday, but there was no
change in quotations.
We notice fair movement in gold, which
continues in demand at rates above the
New York market. A fair business was
done in foreign exchange at slight ad
vance, while New York sight was in liberal
supply, and met with good demand at pre-
vious rates. Securities continue tame and
uninleresting, with very little movement
reported. The few transactions effected to-
day are given in detail below.
We notice that the City Council to-day
passed the ordinance introduced at the last
meeting providing for receiving city scrip
and half paid interest coupons in payment
of back taxes, from all who have paid, or
pay up their taxes for 1875.
We continue to quote collateral loans and
first class commercial signatures at al "
cent y month; AL do at l0lA. and second
grade at no. First class mortgages
rule at 10 v cent y annum; second grade
entirely nominal.
