6 MONEY AND COMMERCE. | MONETARY. BATURDAY Evesitng, Oct, 11, Now York oxchange continucs scares in this annrket, and golls at from par for bankors' sight bills to X¢ of 1 por cont dixcouut for bills drawn ‘mgainst tho shipment of grain, As tho bills are “payablo in cortified chiocks In Now Yorlk, and as (theso checks aro still at n discount of 1 of 1 por cont for groonbnoks, it shows that exobango {8 ronlly at o promium of 82,60 per £1,000. This condition of things of courso uocossitates the shipmout of curronoy to Now Yorlk to malko oxchango, and somo of tha banks in this clty are shipping moderato smounta from day to day for that purpose, As montioned yeatorday, wo Lavo roason to bolleve that all the ‘Wontern banka thnt ehip ourrency to Now York to mako oxchangs now do so undors defluite undoratanding with their Now York corresponds enta that thowo romittances of ourroncy ar to bo considored ‘special deposits, whicl ara to bo paid vgain in curronoy on the exchango sold against _them. Ono thing is quito apparout, that, if the ‘grain and other Wostern products do not move Eastward moro froely, there will bon strong ‘movoment of cwroncy iu that dircction that will soon mako it scarcer hore. If the eurrency woro allowed to movo freoly from tho wholo Northwest, thore would probably bn no scare city bero, but it Is quite corlain that ‘from $10,000,000 to €15,000,000 of currenay, more than {a required in tho legitimato busiuess tof thie country, ia still hoarded by farmors, coun- trv merchonts, and country banke in the North- west. They will probably hold on to this until confidenco is fully * rostored,” and the mere fact that they do 8o will, to a consideralle extont, ‘provont tho restoration of confidence. Thus thia ridioulous dend-lock of currency producen the couditions that maintein it Tt 18 npparent that in this condition of thiuga confldence cannot bo ro-estoblished In all places at ouco. It must be- in in somo ono place, Aud gradually extend rom thut to all others. The begiuning lias bosn made in Chicago, beeanse we ano ioie what will bring money when nothing elgo will, viz. breadstuffs nud provislons, Tho . bo- ginuing . hoving been made boro, it is oL tho utmost importanco to the whole country rthat 1t should be maintained by o large supply of currency in this city, In this conncction, it in an important fact thnat, whilo the banks aro ship- ing currency to New Yorlk to make exchange, o nyger amount fs coming liera by oxpress to pay for grain, and wo Lear to-day of tno rocolpt, by one thm of grain-dealors, of $240,000 in cur- renoy to pay for grain, Tho Lankiors of both St. Louis and Clucinnati seem to bo gonvinced now (bt they did not nct wisely to follow tue cxample of Now York fn tho {esue of loan certiticates, In both cities tho banking business is piactically stopped. Cin- cinnati is maling a great effort to et out of it, aud tho S8t. Louis papers are l.‘m\lfilg on their banks to ‘hf out of it in some way or tho city Wil lose o large portion of its trade. The ‘vondition of things in the Iatter city mny be imagmned from the fact that Now York ex- chang 8ells at b por cent promium for certified checks on tho St. Louir bruks, while for curreucy 11 solla nt par, thus ahowing that currency is ot 8 promium of 5 por cont over the certified cheoks .of tho8St, Louis bauks, We reprmnt, in snother place article from the Bt. d0th, which shows tho rolative positions in which New York, Chicago, aud St. Louis hve boen placed by tho loan cortiticatos, aud acknowledges the corractness of the view taken iwo weeks ago in 'Tut Tuipune, of the principle :fl( issuing a now kind of dopreciated papor cur- ney. below, an Louls @lobe of tha THE UNTON NATIONAL BANK. - Ttis now gonerally believed in finaucinl ciralos “that the Union National Bauk of Chicago will re- sumo business enrly next weck, probably about Tuesdny, tho 14th. 1t is. to be hoped that this will bo dono, In tho presont ‘situation the city needs all the banlk capital tunt ‘can possibly bo ‘made available in order to help rostors coufldenco, and tho $1,300,900 enpitnl end surplus of the Union National Bauk ought ot to be withdrawn from tho banking business now. A large part of this sum is the accumula- tion of the protits of banking in this city, and ns long 88 the bank i in s roally sonad congl- tion, and has mot with no logs, the owners of ~this accumulation of bank profits ought not to withdraw it from the businoss sim- ply Lecause banking is nat likely to be so proft~ nble for the noxt forr months. THE PRESIDENT ON *' SPECIE DASIS." Our Washiugton dispatclics iudicate that the YProsidont is desirous of socing somothing done to put tho business of the country once moro on » specle bnaiy, but that ho scoms to believo in tlo oxprossion mado uso of by Sccratary Bout- well in one of his 10poits to Congross, tamoly, that upecle payment will como from nntural ‘causes and not through any spocial logislution by Cougress. .2 i idestt dduiwy Dhuwever, cuuteadic themaolvos: Hoe is ropresontod as dosirous of Becing something done nbout it. Now, nothing can Vo done about it. except by spacial ack of Congreas, because nothing but o special act of Congregs can remove the unnatural obstruction of tho Leil\'Tundnr act, which is tho solo ob- stacle to the operation of tho *‘uatural causcs,” apon which Mr. Boutwell geems to rely for a ro- turn to spocie payments, Mr. Boutwell's mental composition, bowaver, 18 such that whanovor, in s dovious flnanciering, ho runs against an ob- staclo in the shapo of o solid fact, ge persints in saying that it {s not go. Like s mule that hns ncked up agsinst a fouce, tho more rolid tha fence, the more he kicks against {t; tho more undeninble the fact, the ‘more he denies it. Mr. Bourwell having put himself on record s believing that thera 18 nothing in the way of the aporation of theso * nasural causes,” nnd that, thorefore, no action of Congroxs is necessary to put the business of tho country on s specid ba- sls, \\'Hlxfinbnblvconfinuo to practically deny that the Legal-Tander act is any obstaclo to tho resumption of o speclo bsia of’ prices, or that it I8 any hindrance to tho floxibility of the volumo of our circulaling medium, The President is roprosented as desirous of seeing something done about getting on to o srocie basig, and yot is snld to agrec with Mr. Boutyoll, Tho groat majority of Congtessmon aro thom- selves 0 ignorant of tho fundameatal principles of carrency, and bave l'een so awed by tho olahorate schemes with whicl Senators Boutwell snd Shorman have conuived to addle their own heads, that it is doubtful it they can be mado to comprohend tho simplici- ty of the zomody for our finunciml troutles in the mucnl of the Legal-Tender Bet. Ono groat troublo is that, asn rule, Con- gressmon get their idess on financlul toples from National Bankers, aud thit theso, ag o class, are opposed to specle resumption, because thoy faucy thoy can make more monoy while we avo inaptato of susponsion, with gold ata high lexinum, 80 as to increase tho intoiest on their onds doposited to sccure citculation, DBub the sevaro twist which the rocont panic is even vet giving the whole bauking intorest of the country will probably toach oven the bankera that n circulation of paper money, limited by law to a cortain amount, and made a logul-teudor so n8 to exclude specie, furnishes the oloment of a ore distrossing orisis than could ocenr if we wero on a spacie basis, It is to be hoped that both bankora and Congrossmon will brgin to realize, boforo Congross meots in Decembor, that tho business community of the United Btates, particutarly the banis, nro cramped by a Joyal Jlimit to the volumo of curroncy, and thut this Jimit should be removed by tho ropesl of tho Legal-Tendor nct.

The committeo will proba- Lly continuo its labors during several days of the coming woelk. It is not yot knownLow far it will “investigate,” or what it will turn up. TIIE MARKETA, The leading produco markats wero generally lower to-day, owing to depressing advices from Eastorn points, and the further reduction of the old glmmlum, both of which are believad to be ue c! hfli to tho continued scarcity of monay with which to carry property. This reacted on Chicngo, though s pecuninry scarcity does not now exist here; but the raduction brought out o brisk domand, which stiffoned pricos of grain towards tho eud of tho sossion, and coused o more active shipping movement than could bave bean expectod undor the circumstancoes. For the closing day of the weok the amount of staplo and fancy dry goods distributed was quite up to all reagonablo expeotations, and the mar- kot again presanted o tone. * Although col- Teotions aro still n littlo slow, thoy are gradually worklog casior, and among tho trado gonerally thera is apparant s growing confidence. Btocks are nob Iargo, but, in point of nssortment and gonurfl attractivoncss, they are complete in all opartmonts, and tho market ia considered in a Lioalthy condition. The demand for grocerics shows steady improvemont, there boing noticea- ble a gradual inoreaso in the number ot orders, as woll aa in the amounts called for. Prices, however, scom to be working essier, This ia due in part to the dacline in gold prem« ium, and partly to the uneettlod statoof finances 8t the Enst.
