There is apparently more life in the
money market to-day than for sometime
past; checking and depositing is active,
and the banks are responding quite lib
orally for loans at 8 10 10 per cent. per
annum-in fact, the banks are doing al
they a to relieve the business COM
munity. Exchange is firm, with a good
supply at unchanged rates, a. fol-
lows: New York commercial bills, ic
discount buying and selling at par;
Eastern sight, &c discount and selling
at par; New Orleans, buying at tc
discount and selling at tc p%remiam.
Money OIL the streets is plentiful at 2 to
81 per cent. per month. New York gold
rates are LOT; here brokers are paying
LOG to 1861 In stocks, bonds and local
securities there is very little doing.
