A considerable amount of money is
held by private individuals here and
many would be glad to invest it if
anything of a productive nature Of
fered, but fimsy security is undesira-
bic, and realty is not in faver at pres
ent. No movement in securities and
stocks is heard of and a very limited
mercantile demand prevails for dis
counts the ruling rate of which is 8
per cent, while as low as 6 per cent. is
heard of for loans on Government or
other undoubted collateral. Shelby
county warrants are in demand at s.
to 50 cents; Exchange is steady at &C..
discount for Eastern cotton bills with
out grace, and &c, discount with it.
New Orleans bills &c. discount.
Checks on all points are sold at par.
