New York Graphic.l
Yesterday was set apart by the
Evangelical Alliance as a day for
prayer for editors. The clergymen
who assembled in this city awaited
themselves Of the occasion with the
utmost fervency and manifested great
interest in the spiritual condition of
u~nregenerate journalists. This is right
and wholesome. There cannot be too
much of it. A good many Of our co.
tempOraries need this sort of atten-
ton and ought to have had it before.
We could mention names but it might
cause offense and do no lasting good.
In the meantime journalists ought not
to let the season pass without friendly
reciprocity. lfthey do not offer simi-
lar su%pplications for the improvement
Of the pulpit, they can at least counsel
and exhort they can enjoin upon the
weaker brethren in the pulpit the duty
of personal uprightness and ~regenera-
ton they can applaud the strong and
virtuous they can publish more able
sermons and fewer wishy-washy SER
mons hat thereby the truth may be
exalted and clerical studiousness en-
couraged and if necessary they can
give somewhat more in detail the de-
l%inqueneies of wolves in Sleeps cloth
ing, that terror of exposure may pre-
vail and honorable and godly men may
be trusted as they deserve to be. If
journalists go about it in a sincere
and humble spirit they can do a good
deal to improve the moral and intel
%lectual standing Of the Fourth Estate.

MENPHIs, january q. 1879

~ @0NNNN
Except in the way of exchange,
business in financial circles during the
past week has been light. Numerous
offers of local stocks and securities
find no bids, owing to the general dis
trust among capitalists regarding their
stability and future value. The pre-
vailing agitation in State and munich
pal affairs is also influencing an indis-
position to invest in anything save
national bonds. The large run on the
latter, full 800, 900 having been
sold since the first instant, shows that
there is no lack of confidence in gov
eminent securities. The financial
depression, so long prevalent in
Europe, shows indications of letting
up. Rates of interest in the open
market of London dropped recently to
q per cent, while the Bank of Eng
land rates we're at 4 per cent. for
the past two weeks, a reduction from
8 per cent, a figure at which it had
stood for several months previously.
The new contract entered into be-
tween the government at Washing
ton and certain Eastern bankers,
stipulates that $4,000, 900 of the new
4 per cent. bonds shall be at once
placed on the market in Europe, and
that $4,000 900 per month shall be
taken from now until July next. 1t
is expected that the bonds will have a
large sale abroad, now that specie pay
ment is fully established in this coun-
try, and our government credit stands
so high.
The secretary of the national treas.
ury made a call last week for $4,000.
600 of the 500 bonds, to be refunded
in 4 per cents. The amount YET
available and subject to call under
present laws is as follows: Five-twen-
ties of 1867, $22O,616,45O; do of 1868.
$37, 1865, 300; te%n-forties, 1874, SOC, 300:
total, S452,64S,050.
An excessive supply of money is
reported in Eastern cities. Loans can
be effected in New York on govern.
ments. as security, for 1@1l per cent.
and at p to 3 per cent. on m~iscellan-
seous collaterals.
The demand for discounts is limited
Currency is in good supply and the
feeling in monetary circles is easy
Prime commercial paper can be
readily placed at 8 to 10 pei
cent, with an occasional shading
on these figures for extra choice. Tax.
