There wasa full attendance; the pro- ceedings were private, FINANCIAL.—The New York Commercia} Ad- vertiver of yesterday says: The chief matter of interest on Wall street is the firmness of the gold premium and the large export of gold by the Persia. The shipments, so tar as reported tothe present, amount to $7,600,000; but it is quite hkely that the total will reach $1,000,u00. This unexpectedty large shipment is due per. ually to the return of railroad stocks trom London. The Scotia brought about two thous- and shares of Erie and three thonsand shares of Lilinois Central; but the Persia takes out nearly an equal amount of Erie. shipments, however, are made by the Ge: bankers, whose advices by the Scotia cd large remittances. Probably the commercial balances with Germany are in our favor: but apart from these, there are large amounts loaned by German capitalists to this country, or of capital held here tor on account of Germans: and these sources are now being heavily drawn upon. The Gero appear to have no contidence in the European Con- ference, and are a ng, in this matter, upon the presumption that there will certainly be war. We are somewhat surprised to find, from private advices by the Scoua, that even among the private holders of Five-twenties in Germany there are many sellers Not a few find it necessary to realize upon securities, and as Five-twenties have fallen little in comparison with home securities they appear the most desirable security upon which to realize. Se taras this movement may pro- gress, it will of course tend to toster the drain of gold from this side; unless the London mar. ket, buving recovered from peat: should prove to be prepared to take the bonds on specula- tion; which is, perhaps, a reasonnble proba- bility. ‘Tue advance in gold is making securi- ties cheap here as compared with London: and itis quite probable, that it the premium should continue at about the presentrate we may soon accumulate, by exports, large credits in Lon- don, calling for return shipments of specie. Governments are quiet but firm. Money is dull THE END OF THB STRIKE IN New York.—It was stated yesterday that the great strike of the sbipearpenters and cauikers in New York, tor the eight-hour system, had come to an end. It appears that at a large meeting of the journeymen and their friends, held on Tues- day morning, it was announced that many shipwrights who had been at the first strenuous advocates of the movement had proved recne- ast to the cause, and gone back to work on the old plan. The chairman also made a statement to the effect ges soa on had combined inst them, by not Tmitting vessels to their docks to be reperred by eight-hour man. Under these circumstances he deemed it inex- pedient to longer hold out. These views seemed to meet with general approbation. The result of it all was, the unanimous adoption of areso- Intion rescinding the one passed on the secend of April, calling upon employers to recog- nize eight hours asa regular day’s work. The meeting then adjourned, with the understand- ing that all hands might go to work in future on any terms they choose. There are some other organizations holding out for theeight hours principle that will probably follow the example thus set by the shipjoiners. ————$ LATEST FROM MExico.—Vera Cruz dates to the Ist, ans City of Mexico advices to the 28th of May, announce that Maximillian arrived at the latter place on the 19th ult.
