WASHINGTON, Tuesday Evekfng, July 13.
There have been no new developments to-day in
monetary and stock matters, either In Wall street
or Washington, and affairs stand in stGiu quo.
More interest seems just now to be taken in the
yacht and the university races, whittier many Of
the stock jobbers have repaired, than in specula-
tIon and business. With q solid foundation how
ever, healthy and early return to the activities
In lieu Of the existing dullness may be expected.
Messrs. Sherman & Grant, No. .li25 F street,
quote the following buying and selling rates for
Governments, gold, SC:
