MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL.

In the early part of the week there was an
advance in wheat which gave hopes of re-
newed activity in the grain market, but the
advance was soon checked and prices de-
clincd again. Corn and oats, however, arc
higher. In commercial circles the week has
been quiet one, while there has been but
little doing i'll monetary affairs. In New
York ycstc rday money on call was easy at l
per ceut. Prime mercantile paper 3a5 per ct.
In the Baltimore financial market in the
week money ruled easy throughout at 3ib

enough for dual mistresses, was amply
illustrated in the Police Court this
morning. a dusky individual known

ago began to cohabt with mulatto
woman named Elizabeth Watch. AZ

Gently. when Lomax brought an ebony
hued buxom female named Emma
Brown into the house and permanently
established her there. Yesterday Lo-

blows followed. LomaX was arrested
and this morning was fined s. for as

IMPLEMENTS FROM THE DISTRICT
PEopLE.-The people of the District OF
Columbia are still casting impediments
to the Washington, Alexandria and
Mount Vernon Railroad entering the
capital city. The recommendation of
the commissioners for the location of q
ferry wharf at the foot of 9th and f
streets, to be used in common by the
Washington and Mt. Vernon and Wash
ington and Falls Church railroads, for
several good reasons does not meet
with favor at the hands of the promoters
ofthese railroads. The representatives
Of 1.-THE Washington and Mt. Vernon rail
road have naturally offered strenuous
objection 10 the recommendation of
the commissioners and claim that the
engineering difficulties in the way make
it impossible for the company to con-
struct It's road along E street and 10
build ferry landing at this point.
Capt Powell, the engineer commiss-
Toner, in a recent interview undertook
10 controvert the assertions made by
the two railroad companies, but the
latter are still convinced that the route
proposed by the commissioners is i'm,
practicable.
