6 MONEY AND COMMERCE. MONETARY. SATORDAY EVENING, Nov. 23. Financial affaire in the local market bave pre- sented on aspect of seltled stringency through- _out the week. The mercantile part of the ‘business community, particularly, bave found it difficult to meot their maturing obligations, on acconnt of elow collections in the country. But, on the whole, the ituation is no worse than it <was last week, and it is believed that the mar- Xeting of hogs and csttle in the country, which is increasing now, will soon put money enongh into the hands of the farmers to pay alarge portion of their indebtednces fo coun- try merchants, and thus help the gen- eral liquidation of . momey obligations. As yet, however, there are no indications of the coming relief. The country banks appear to be herd up, a large proportion of them are appli- cants to their city correspondents for losns, and their balances here are in scarcely any instance above the amount of legal reserve they are re- quired to keep here. The volume of currency coming in from the couniry is less than it wes = week ago, =nd the high price of New York ex-~ change favors the steady movement of the cur~ rency from hore to New York. For once, the grain markets in thiscity are ab- sorbing very little money in speculative opera- tions, and the amount of margins deposited with the Board of Trade Treasurer is & New York exchange is scarce and firm at 75¢ per £1,000 premium for sales between banks, The clearings of the Chicago banks for the weel; ending Nov 23, were : stocks aro fornished by Meesrs.

In Northwestern, during the greater part of fhe day, the price ranged from 145 to 155, and Teported settie~ ments tothe amount, perhaps, of $1,000,000 were ‘made at from par to 195, At the Board this afternoon, 3300 shares were bought in,under the rule, forac- count of Xenyon, Cox & Co., with whom Daniel Drew is partner, ot 200 cash, and 3,000 for sccount of Boyd, Vincent & Co., emccessors to David Groesbeck, ot 230 cash. Quite 8 number of settlements were made at between 300 and 230, the latter being tho closing prico of ihe day. 75 . Smith abeolately refused to settle, and not 8 share of the stock was bought in for his account. Vanderbilt is believed to be at the back of Gould, from the fact that his son-in-law, Horace F. Clark, is creof the bondsmen in the Eris suit, It is known {nat Smith is short of stock t0_an amount exceeding £0,000 shares, and that Drew i in a similar position as regards upwards of 20,000 shares, Thirtcen hun- ured shares were bought in under the rule gaid to belong to John -Bloodgood. It seems certain that Gould owns in stock and contracts 200,000 shares of Norlhwestern common, the capital stock of which is only 140,000 shares.

COMMERCIAL. SATTRDAY EVENTNG, Nov. 23, The following were the roceipts and shipments of the leading srticles of produce _in. this city during the paet twenty-four hours; and forthe corresponding dato a year ago: f RECEITTS, 1872, Potatoes, bu .

Alexander Murigon to-day submitted the fol- lowing proposed amendment to Section 1, of Rule 9, of the Board of Trade, which will be acted upon after the usual thirty days’ proba- tion : Strike out the words “ All such security or to be deposited with the Treasurer of the association unless otberwise agreed upon by the partes,” and in- sert All euch scourity or margins to be deposited in any National Bank tlat the depositor may elect, pro- vided gaid Bank will comply with the terms Horein prescribed, to wit:-Said Bank shall issue o certificate for such deposits payable on demand to the joint order of the partics to the contract, and shall issue to the depositor s ticket of notification to the caller of the margin that such deposit has been made. It aball o the further duty of the party making such deposits to deliver to the party calling for the same said ticket of notification within no exceeding one hour from the time such deposit was made.” The metter referred to in the above was dis- cassed extensivoly on 'Change to-day, and amid copviderable excitement. It is alleged that when the money put up a8 margins by grain op- erators is all deposited with ong bank, it places an undue power in the hands of the officors of thot bank, which may bo used to the detriment of the men making those deposts. If the ofii- cers of such bank should take a fancy to corner one of the grain markets they would not only be able to lmow tho esact standing of other opera- tors ifregard to it, but could call marging on the shorts, which, on being deposited with them, could be used to atill further inflate prices, and make it necessary to deposit additional marging, to be used in the same way, Thisis the view taken by thoso who advocais a change in tho rules, and some of them claim that the recent course of events justifies them in de- ‘manding a cbange. Of course, many of the rumors that_circulate on the floor are mere mnonsense, and tho rumior that an officer of the bank now designated as the margin repository is the owner of nearly rll the wheat in this city, may be without foundation, while it is equally .possiblo that he ehould own the wheat on his individual account, while the bank has nothing to do with the fransaction. It is probablo, howerver, that some change will bo made in the rules, even if the above amendment be not adopted. 4 A meeting of 'the warehouso_proprietors was held this morning, at which the eitustion was discussed rather freoly; but the conclusions arrived at were not reported by any member of the conclave. As the greatest sufferer by the Munn & Secott failure, Mr. George Armour, occupied the post of honor, and had most to say. THE WARKETS, Tho leding preduce matkets wero slow to- dsy, and several were dull and easier, in tho sbsence of ansthing like an zctive demand, while reccipts were larger than the usual aver- age. Tho shipping movement was quie. Tew chunges were noticeable in the groceryma ket. BDusiness continues slack, and a_quiet, easy fecling prevails. Coffecs are still held with a show of firmness, but for most other goods there is a disposition to concede a little on suythiny like fair orders. Stocks aro ample. Dry goods were quiet, with little or no variation ‘in “prices, the prevalont feeling being one of firmness. In the butter market thero was a slightly increased inquiry for tho different grades, and the guoted prices were very gen- erally fustained. Cheese remains inactive, and the market is not firm at present prices. Coal was reported in good demand, and the market was strong at_former quotations, or at £11.00@ 12.00 for Lackawanna; at $10.50@11.00 for Erie, and at $7.00 for Wil- mington. Tish met with only & limited inquiry, bat, with no surplus stock on hand, dealers remain firm in their views. Dried fruits were moving on = moro Jiberal ecale, without change in prices. The hay trade: was again dull, the demand being almost wholly of local character, but the light arrivals induced s firm feeling, and the recent advance was thor- oughly sustained. In the hide marketno new features wero noted. A small business was done at 10@1037c for Leavy, and _103{@11c for light. No ‘cbanges were noted in the market for oils, paints, tobacco, and wood. The lumber trade was fair to-day, prices un- dergoing no important change. Building ma- torials were in rather better demand at former prices. Coofemge was auiet ; lard tierces lower, and quotzble at $1.70@1.80. Iron, sleel, tin, coppet, etc., continte to meet with a fair de- mund for tho scason; prices ruling sleady. Salt was fairly active and firm. There was = very good demand for timotly seed, prices rang- ing higher. £8.05@3.10 was paid for prime, and £2.70@3.00 for common to fair seed. Clover was in some request at $5.05@3.15 for prime. Hungarian gold at 80@85¢. Potatoes were in good demand and firm; car lots were scarce, end guotable at (0@G6ac on track. Wool wasin fair demand and frm. Stocks are light, ‘but the receints are increasing, Poultry was in liberal supply, but most of the offerings beiug in poor condition, sules were slow st lower prices. Game was in demand and firm, Green 1ruits were in usual request. Apples were in fair demand, &€ £3.00@3.50. Crauberries weroin moderate request, at 39.50@11.00 for cultivaied. Grapes were quiet and unchanged. Highwineswere quiet and steady 2t former quo- tations, thougliroported inactivé inNew Yoris at infli{du prices. Sales were: 200 brls at 89 per on. Lake freights were quict, but quoted firmer. Carriers were asking 1cadvance or 13c on wheet, and 12¢ on corn, by sail, to Buffalo; while ong or two shippers were understood to bid 12 and 1le, Ove charter was - reported at 10i5c for barley to Buflalg, which, with one taken last evening, will codvey out 41,000 bu. Two pro- pellers were chartored to carry 8,000 brls 0ld pork on through rato to New Yo Dressed hogs come in 182 being reported for thi quoted on the street at for fair to good. Provisions were moderately zetive, by com- parison with past dulness, but really quict for the season. Mess porl was in fair speculative demand, bt generally held higher on options, which buyers were not willing to concede, ex- cept on December. Lard was moderately active,’ ‘but easier, returningto the quotations of Thurs- dey, after the temporery bulge of yesterday. Meats were in moderato request &b un- changed prices, some quoting green hams casier. 'The reported arrangement (noted sbove) to ship out 8,000 brls of ¢1d pori: to New York, was probably the cause of the firmer feal- ing in that article, aided by a slight advance in the price of live hogs. The market closed at the following rango of prices: Mess pozk, old held at $1450@15.00; new pork, $13.00@18. do seller the month nominal at $13.00; do - geller December, £12.50; do seller January, §12.374; do seller -February, $12.50; do seller March, $12.50@12.624 ; do_seller April, $12.50@12.75; prime moss, $11.50@12.00 Lard, cash, T3¢c for new; do seller December, T24@75%c; do soller January, 7¥c; do seller February, 754@73c; do seller March, 73{c.- Sweet - pickled - hams, 95@103{c, and as yét, only .

There is a wide diversity of opinion in regard to the extent of the time of shorts out for this month and next. It is scarce- 1y possible that tho market i8 largely oversold ; 281! it were, the fact that all the No. 2 sprin wheat hero is held by onme firm, would eurely run up prices to a much higher point than_ now,—independently of the reasons for an advance which are presented by the short stocks in sight both in America and Europe.

That (at this season of the year when the markets of the country are flooded with poultry and game, and the cheaper meats from the packing-houses), under this large supply there should 2 gen- eral wedkness of prices is mot cause for surprise, the only +wonder being that the depreciation in values was not even more pronounced. The quality of the stock offerod for gale was of sbeut the same average as Inat week, the proportion of wells matured beeves being comparatively small, This fact, however, did ndt result in any serions inconvenionce, ns the wants of shippers were' not urgent, the Eastern markets being reported overatocked, dull, and generally lower, The best droves found buyers at $6.00@6.50, but salds at these figures were exceedingly rare, thore being comparatively fow tranefers at over $5.80, The raling prices for shipping” cattle ‘were 84.50@5.00, for such grades 25 are usually taken for Pitteburgh, Cincinnati, and Cleveland; and $5.25@5.80 for good to choice steers, aver~ aging from 1,200 o 1,350 tbe. - Whilo the market was dull and ‘week for all descriptions of stock; it was especially 50 for common -and_medinm grades, and, but for the unuseslly full attend- ance of - feeders, the decline, instead of being 25@500, must have reached a much larger figure The receipts of Texas cattle havebeen moderate in comparison with the receipts of the preceding few weeks, and this forign stock has commanded relatively better prices than have native cattle. " A few extrh corn-fed fetched $5.00@5.25, but the provailing prices were $3.75@4.50 for corn-fed, Yand $2.00@3.00 for through droves, The wants:of the local trade wero mainly supplied at $2.50@3.50 for in- . ferior to common natives and common to fair Texans,and at $3.75@4.25 for good to choice cowa'| and common £o Tairish steers and oxen.
