Money has been plenty during the week, having
lent on call at 2 and per cent on Government
bonds, and chiefly az 3Gl on miscellaneous stocks.
Discounts and rates Of domestic exchange were as
last quoted. 1t is by no means unreasonable to
look for higher rates for money at this season, and
particularly now, when the uncertainties over
hanging resumption are present and when the
temptation 10 large spectators TO manipulate the
market is so strong. The United States Treasurer
at Washington to-day received $3.50, 900 National
bank notes for redemption. The custom receipts
were $400,0 900. and the internal revenue receipts
$430,000 The following is the Clearinghouse
statement to-day; Currency exchanges. $07, 2e9,-
6l6: currency balances, SO, 596O 1885, gold ex-
changes. Ss,37s, 3s3; gold balances, $7b5,20s.
On the London Stock Exchange British consols
were dropping during the week, but United States
bonds are generally firm. and American railway Sc,
curies irregular. Bar silver was easier, and closed
at 609ie pence the ounce, English standard: At the
meeting Of the directors yesterday, the Bank OF
England rate of interest was maintained at per
cent, OF la61 above the figures at which three
months bills are discounted in the outside market.
In the last two days the bank has reported no bull
Hon movement. The following are the highest and
