The markets exhibit considerable
variation as compared with week
ago. The value Of -four is from Is to
35c per bbl higher, and wheat has ad-
vanced Sc per busheI. Our receipts
of -four for the week have been 1000
bbls. Corn has been scarce and
prices on this account are up little,
the local demand being in excess of
the supply. In upper country mar
kets the price of corn has fallen a lit

A general decline is noted in rail
way securities, and the entire list
closed weak. Memphis and Charles
ton stock closed Saturday at 20,
q fall Of ID during the week. Mobile
and Ohio is 343, against 3S1; Louis
vile and Nashville 101, against 1854;
Chicago, st, Louis and New Orleans
74a, against 81. The gauge of the
latter road is to be made the same as
its connecting lines north of the Ohio
next Friday. The whole line from
Cairo to New Orleans will be drawn
in some three or four inches, by NOV
ing the rails on the west side Of the
track.
Tennessee State Securities are also
lower, closing at 728 to 70 against 75l
to rs last week. Those of other
Southern States exhibit slight ad-
vance over last weeks figures. Ten
nessee 6s jumped ups per cent after
Chancellor Merritt's decision, bui
have since gradually declined.
Government bonds closed steady
the 4 per cent being l16i, against 1l6l
a week ago, the highest they ever
touched being 11SS on the 3D. of last
month. The As closed at 114s
against 114s last week and llOl, their
highest, on the 3lst of May last. The
extended IS and 6s are now l0l3@l02i,
against 1O2@1O2l last week, and lO5 t.
1864 in May, when they we're highe'
than ever before or since.
Aside from the general dropping in
railway and State securities, the cause
Of which is attributed in part to the
contention and rate cuttingamong the
railway people, and to the less favor
able condition of our President, the
money markets Of the country are
easy, and likely to continue so through
the autumn months. Loanable funds
are in large volume in ell financial
centers. Here the supply is ample,
indeed in excess of any anticipated
demand, and our banks are taking all
thirty, sixty or ninety day mercantile
paper at six per cent. There is no
variation in exchange. Eastern bills
are taken by the banks at par to pei
cent discount, and drafts on New York
and Western cities are sold at IL pre-
MUM. New Orleans rates are lc dis
count buying and par selling. incur
rent securities aud stocks are firm
with but little variation in quotations,
