MONETARY. SATURDAY EYENING, Nov. 30, The tendenoy in finances and trade duriug tho past woek has boon atendily in the direction of fmprovoment, In this markot the activity in businesa Lne inoroasod, sud lns made an in- orensed domand for money for logltimato use in tho transactions inoldent to tho fmmeuso pork- packing buelness now bolng dono horo, and, though tho supply of money in tho merkot has incroased largely, it has beon so nenrly nil ob porbed in thoso logitimato uecs, that rates of in torost have beon maintainod at nenrly as high Bguresns lastweok, Tho common ratofor monoy on the best collaterals in tho opon marke: in thls olty is still 134 per cont permonth, Tho Improvemont In trado and fiunnces Lins, how- ever, not boon confined to the Wost. Each dny's dispatobes from tho varlous Tastorn citiea have told of the royival of IOHVI‘F in tho large manufacturing ootablishmonta that stopped work n fow weoks ago. ln Lewiston and An- burn, Maine, the large cotton and woolon mills and machine-shops nra mnnluE on full _timo, with cnongh ordors on and to . koep them running for _ sovoral months, Tho mills at Cohooes and Newbitrg, Now York, whoro the operatives aro numbora by {housnnds, have aleo resumed busincss. It may bo said that confidenco hns beon restored in every logitimate entorprise, and thoe whole coun- try is all tho better for having got rid of the ppeoulative achemon that had beon threatening to collapea for a year bofore thoy did. d Now York oxcliange is becoming more abun- . dant in this markot, though tho price is atill B0c per $1,000 promium between banka, The cloarings of the Ohicago banks for the woek wero noarly oqual to thoss, of the corre- sponding week of last year, viz.

There has scarcely been a timo in two years ‘whon there was 50 littlo belng done in the sale of renl estato in this olty as now, uniess it was durlog tho extreme stringency of money in Docember of last yoar, Tho causc, however, of thoe small volumo of sales now is the same as it was then —stringency of monoy. It may be sccopted as a general ralo that, whenovor trado is extremoly aotive,—whon large crops arc being moved and money is tight,—renl estate busincas is always dull, for the very good reason that those who liave money can temporarily make more by lending it at high rates of interest to . the mercantile community. For & month past monoy bas commanded from 114 to 2 per cont pormonth on loans for thirty to ninety days on the best collateral socurity in this market, The money of the banks belng abaorbed in the tran- saction of the immense pork-packing businese of this fall in Chicago has obliged capitalista and speculators to borrow in the open market at high rates. Ti\sso rates of interest afford quickor profits to those who havo ready cash than thoe slower movement of tho advance in roal estate. ‘The capitnl - that seeks Investmont in the Iatter is only ¢hoe scoumulated profits of trado. This class of capital never be- ., tomes 80 abundant as to seelc permanent invest- ment until after tho greatest activity of trado ia over; consequently, tho greatest demand for real estate is usually in Jaouary, February, and Maroh, whon tho disbursoments of the January dividends hins made o surplus of capital that is not required in active trade in commoditics, But thore is rosson fo beliovo that the domand tor real catate a8 an investment for such surplua sopital this year will bogin earlier than osunl, for many of the wusual avenucs for investment do not afford the usunl inducements ; United Btates bonds are scarco and high, and, a8 for railway stocks and railway ‘bonds, there is loss confidenco in their. valus than tl\er® ueed to bo. Thestocls havo already been addanced 8o largely by the spoculative re- sction from the panic that comparatively little conservative capital will soel investmont in that direction, . A well-known banker of this city, who has just returned from New Yorls, says that already the demand for some moro conservative sndsafe invostment thsn stocks and railrond bonds has causod sn advance in . the prices of mnearly all real estate in New York ' City ond its suburbs. It is also probable that tho quick recoyery from the panis is convineing pooplo that the United States was in fack nevor 50 rich ns now, and that now that logitimato business i¢ recovoring 8o rapid! there will ho & gronter concentration of wenll] in the great commercial citics of tho Union within tho next year than ever bofore. The col- lapgc of :éwculaflvu schomes which careful peo- plo feared so much, has como and l\:ueod, and we are none tho worse for it, Ohicago, as & oity, hus cortainly been bonofited by it, and now that thore is no such threatening cloud in the horizon as the former apprchonsion of the collapse, it seoms reasonable that ns soon a8 money bocomos abundant in this mar- ket, a8 it undoubtedly will within the next two . months, thore will be as groat n domaud for ronl eatate in this city and suburbs ns ever boforo, nud‘pmblhly at belter prices, Of the various ontorprises for BUDURBAN IMPROVEMENT in all directions there is not much to bo said just now, oxcopt that in every cake things are pro- gressing oven moro favorably than could be ox- Eeutnd n_such wintry weather and uudor such inancial difiicultios as have provailed for some limo past, At the NORTHWZSTERN OAT-HIIOPH, . building is still progreseing rapidly, notwith- standing the inclemont woather. ~Lots are daily being sold to mechanics who want homes, and when gpring cones mony puu]fla who Liave not visited that quartor sinco luat Lall will find that, to their surprive, & noew town has grown up as by magio during tho winter. i AT ENGLEWOOD there is an equal activity, and the long string of houses that strotches down along tho Hock Islond Railrond to that point is gradually be-. eomh:fi continuous to Washington loights by the bullding st Bouth Englewood, Auburn, end Normal, AT CORNELL AND BOUTIL OHIOAGO, thoro is an oqual nolivity in building, The work on the new raflroad from Park Side Btation, on tha Tllinois Contral, to Bouth Chicago hns beon tomporarily eusponded, but it will bs comploted ‘before spring, and, in ail probability, will be tha route used by the Daltimoro & Ohlo Noad for coming into the oity. THE BELT RATLROAD, A few days ago a contract was eigned batween Measrs, Boyder & Loe, on behalf of certain ro] nr:s-ownaw, on the ono part, and the Deit ailroad Company, on the othor, in which it ia ngreed that, in consideration of #3,600 to ho paid to taid’ Bolt Tailrond Company, they will conatruot their track from the Rook Ieland Rail- rond, just north of Washington Ileights, along ‘the centro lino §lmm eosy to wuuti of Bea. b, -Town 87, Nange 14 enst, bofore the flruhtfay of May, 1874, This bonus to tho Belt Railrond Company is given by the owners of land in tho south halfof said Beo, 5, whioh adjoins the originol' Washington Ttelghts Subdivision on the north.

It was genorally conceded to bo open to doubt; because, 1t the now Professorship should be found to cover tho work of apologizing for the warehousmen, then the amouut donated is much too little for the service to be rondered. The leading produce markets was generally weaker to-day, though moderately active, and steadior ot tho decline than might have beon ox- octed. ‘Tho mows that a peacoful solution of e Cuban difficulty has probably been effected, may have had something to do in producing the oasier fecling ; but that offect was little boyond what was duo to tha decline in tho gold premium and tho consequent appreciation in the valuo of the circulating modium known ss cwrroncy. Theo groat incitoment to lower prices all round was o feature of local epeculation, Our stocks of grmin oro low, and there was o Iargo line of shorls ont for December, which could not be filled by delivorles in tho or- dinary way, on account of " the searcity of grain, Thosé who wero short rushed in to buy or ob- tain settlemonts, and, in their cagornéss, thoy ad- vanced pricoson thomselves, Thoy obtained most of what was wantod on Friday, and the lousencd demand pormitted a partinl fu‘l]ing back towards tho basis of trading on Thursday. Provislons followad the lead of grain, thongh without the same apology iu the mattor of small supply. Our receipts of grain continue small, though growing somowhai in volume. The clesing of tho lako has shut up ono important avenuc of shipment, but there is a_good demaund by rail, and tho recont order to the Inapectors to exam- ino the quality of the grain aftor it is n the cars seoms to have aiready given inoroased con-. fidonce in regard to quality. Ordora were ro- colved hero to-day from difforent Eastern par- ties for nearly 500 car-loads of grain, in the ng- gregato, This will probably bo this season & EDEA important elomont than ever in our wintor ado, Dry goods mot with ngxaod domand, and prices were rather moro firmly held, notably fo for cotton textiles, which are now rolatively much lower than the raw muterial, "Certsin of the more-popular brands of bleachod and brown cot~ tous bave rocontly advanced, and the indications are favorable for n protty goneral hardening of ricos, Trade, although’ now quite as active as in former seasons at & like poriod, shows steady [msrnvemont, and tho feoling of despondency und gloom 80 logfl prevalont has given place to ono of cheerful confidence. In the grocery market tho principal topio of intorost was the rapid advanco in coffees, the market taking auothor upward jump to-day to the oxtent of o 1ge, making an advaico of 1@134e within tho Fxxst three doys.
