of capital, though the mercantile de-
mand is growing, and discount rates
are quoted steady at 6 to 8 per cent.
Exchange is moving quite freely
and in more liberal volume than at
this date last year. Liveliness in the
cotton trade is causing improved
offerings of Eastern bills, while the
demand for drafts on New York is
heavy. The banks sell the latter at
4c premium and on Western cities at
the. same figure; while they take cot
ton bills at par and lc discount. On
New Orleaus rates are par selling and
