New Yong, Nov. 14.—Financial affairs were de- pressed to-dny and business dull, partly on ac- count of thesteadyrain. Money is close, and dear to borrowers on call. Exchange was dull and hetvy. Gold was alternately weak and firm, and stocks heavy at a decline. There is a feeling of uncertainty in regard to the future, especiallyas to the course of money, and operators enter upon new engagements with great caution. The outflow of money from this point continues, and the banks are still shipping logal tenders and National Bank notes to the Soath and West. In addition to this drain of currency, there was a further outflow of gold to Europe. The shipments of gold to-day were $1,300,000, making s total thus far for the week 0f'52,350,000. There is some talk of farther shipments on Saturdey. This outflow of both golg ‘and currency is steadily reducing the bank Teserves, and contracting the power of the Danks to assiet the money market.

Among the build- ings in this city with immense sooden. Mansard roofs are the Grand Central Hotel, the Gilsey Houss, and the long row of stores on, White strect. . The Grand Gentral Hotel is the loftiest building in the city, and has an enormons amount of pine lumber in its upper stories.

The unsuspicions natives were de- coyed in their canoes _alongside the vessel, and the canoes were suddenly emashed by hesvy pieces of iron thrown into them.

Greeley promounced ~ for an early resumption of specie poyments, 3 measurs ‘highly distasteful to the money organization, he was denounced on 605 an unsafe man, and war against him was resolved on, and it was carried ca with such unscrupulous rigor that the Liveral move- ment, whichin July was an acknowledged success, was 800n thereafter checked and finally crushed.
