FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. MONEY*MARKET. Mowpay, Nev. 216? M There was quite @ buoyant market this morping st the first board, and for Mowday there was considerable activi- ty. All the fancies were in demand, and the largest par- charera were the heaviest holders. Tait may be taken a4 an evidence of the confidence felt by this class of apscula- tors, however much others may differ from them. The banks are stendily expanding. ‘The liae of call loand and the stock market must feel to a greater or Jess Cogree, the influence of each aid. Means for earrying fancy stosks | are nbundant enough, but the question now is, whether outside purchasers can be induced to take hold at present or at higher prices. Much depends upon this. If stock oun be distributed, the market will be sustained for greater length of time. It is our impression that thone who are row purchasing stocks will be compelled to earry them.

At the second board prices receded a fraction, but there waa a good feeling among speculators. Tue variations are not worth re- cording. Tho rtatement we made this morning relative to defal- cations in several of our city bank?, in ard out of Wail fireot, has astonished the gentlemen who congrogate in the parlors of these inatitations, not on account of the fact, but on account of the publicity given to it. Some | Phonix,... | Severth Ward of the evening papers ray they have been authorised by the respective officers to contradict the statement, but we have isoked ia vata for an official denial.

Suffolk tradiction of the facts stated; but we reiterate the charges made against these institut‘ons, and but for the evidence being in the possession of the baa’s names, could prove more than we have yet made public. Io regard to the Bank of the State of New York, the actual amount de- ficient is much larger than we reported. The gentleman, ‘a professional accountant employed by the bank to inves tigate the accounts, has already found a» de- ficiency much greater than shat anaounced, and what the result will be time only will de- termine, The Hanover Bank de iciercy amounts to twenty- eight thousand dollars; and the internal alfsira of that bank have been so horribly mismanaged, that up to this moment no one bas been able or willing to tell how it o2- curred, When each things appear, the public should not be surprised at anything. Both of these institutions have been compelied to call in outside profeasionsl aid to tell the president and cashier not only how the deficiency was brought about, but the extent of it. We should judge from this fact, that there was not inside of our banks enough skill to ferret out and expore the rascalities prac- tiged. It is not, therefore. te %% wondered at that the officers profess ta know nothing about them. They know well enough that there is something wrong, but they really de rot know how it could have occurred, or how to find it out. Every bank named this morning has suffered seriously by the loose way of conducting bu:iness in the various departusents, The term defalcation may bes harsh one to apply to the matter, but it is the only ove that conveys the proper meaning. The claims against the parties implicated may be considered good by those bank officers who so stoutly assert that there is not the least coloring for the report, They hare undoubtedly availed themselves of every quibble to satisfy their own consciences, in making the contradiction. This is not new in the sharp practice of Wall street. Several precedents exist for such a course. ‘The Manhattan Bank contradictedevery rumor current relative to the enormous defalcations in that institution a few years since. The New York Life and Trust Company, ond the ‘ional Insurance Company, did the same, The Butchers’ and Drovers’ Bank, and the Bowery Bank, did the same, and what was the result! The oflicers of each of the concerns above mentioned were at ths time highly iedignant that it should be even suspected there was anything wrong in their internal affairs. We all know what followed. The Leather Manu- facturers’ Bank sometime since made the discovery that they bad been counting, as om hand in their vaults, a large amount of specie, for several months after it had been stolen; and a few weeks since a cefalcation, or a de- ficiency, if these bank officers prefer to have it called by that name, was patched up in the Mechanica’ Banking Association. These are factswhich no one can refute, and the mystery which still hangs about similar opera- tions of a more recent date, will soon be cleared up. We will, before the lapse of many days, show how much these semi-official contradictions amount to. The receipts at the office of the Assistant Treasurer of the United States at this port, to-day, were $119,133 9; paid, $122,612 20—balance, $5,690 731 62.
