FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. MONEY MARKET. Satvrpay, Nov. 14—6 P. M. There was a very buoyant and very active stock market this morning. It ix a long time since wo have seen #0 much excitement at the Stock Ex- change, and so much life and spirit among opera- tors. The improvement in prices this morning was quite large, and time transactions were plenty. At the first board Ohio State 6's advanced 1 per cent; Tennessee 6's, 2; Virginia, 6's 2; Missouri 6's, 24; New York Central 6's, 2; Erie third mortgage bonds, 2; Erie, 1871, 4; La Crome and Milwaukie land grant bonds, 24; Cumberland Coal Company, 1; Pacitio Steamship Company, 4; New York Central Railroad, 2; Brie, 1; Reading, 1; Michigan Central, 1; Michigan Southern, old, §; do. preferred, 4; Panama, 3; Illinois Central, 14; Galena and Chica, Cleveland and Toledo, $; Chicago and Rock Island, j; Harlem, 24; La Crosse and Milwaukie, 1}. The movement in some of the leading railroad stocks was equal to anything reported at any time last spring, during the height of the «peculative excitement of that period. The bulls show great strength and confl- dence. The abundance of money favors them in their operations for a rise, and it looks very much as though the banks were employing their accumulating funds in loans on the hypothecation of the better class of railroad securities, The supply of good com- mercial paper is limited and much wanted. The movement in New York Central to-day was more de- cided than we have seen since the inflation com- menced; we do not see that there is any corner in it; the stock is plenty enough and the capital is large enough to supply every demand, and as high prices always bring stock into the street, the amount afloat | is likely to be sufficient for all speculative purpose. At the second board the market was but moderate- lya ctive, and prices were a fraction or so lower. Vir- ginia 6's fell off 14 per cent; New York Central Rail- road, }; Brie, 1; Harlem, }; Reading, 1g; Michigan Central Railroad, 1; Michigan Southern, old, 4; Cleve- land and Pitteburg, 4; Cleveland and Toledo, 14. Galena and Chicago advanced § per cent; Hudson Railroad, 4. At the adjourned meeting of the Cloaring House | Association, held at the Clearing House this after- | noon, it was concluded to put off the period of final | closing the present country currency system to | Thursday, the 19th inst, This change is made in | consequence of the short notice given to some of the remote banks of the State, caused by interruptions to the mails by the recent freshets. This was com widered advisable, 80 as to make it satisfactory to all. So faras heard from the banks are much pleased with the courre pursued by our city banks, and all pre dict an easy return to the old system of redemp- ion. ‘The steamship Arago from this port for South- ampton and Havre today carried out $17,208 in specie. The Assistant Treasurer reports to-day as follows:— ‘Total receipts. 980,154 “ “ 108,909 51 « Balance. 5,164,883 41 ‘The receipts to-day include $39,000 from customs. The Cincinnati papers quote the demand for New York exchange as very light, and supplies accumu- lating; bankers’ checks at 44 a 4j a5 premium, but generally refused to buy at over 4 premium; somo think the demand will be better ina day or two, when prices will be firmer, but the majority are pre- paring for a decline. Gold continues dull and heavy, at 2 a3 premium buying, and 4 premium selling. The Auditor of Illinois says that the Hamilton ‘County Bank, the Bauk of the Commonwealth, and the Hutsonville Bank, having failed to make good their securities within the time required by law, will have to be put ina course of liquidation, A few others, it is feared, will not be able to meet the re- quirements in the time prescribed. They, too, will have to be wound up. A comparison of the receipts of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company for October, 1857, with those for October, 1856, shows the following result:— Main stem. Wash. branch. Total.

Chauncey Brooks, Esq., was re-elected President of the Company for the ensuing year. The old Bank of Pittsburg, the Honesdale Bank, the Monongahela Bunk, the Chester Valley Bank, (new) and one or two others in Pennsylvania, con- tinue to pay all their liabilities in specie. The Far- mers’ Bank of Bucks county, at Bristol, has refused to accept the Relief law and will at once resume. ‘The gross carnings of the Wilmington and Weldon Railroad, for the year ending September 30, 1857, were $494,508 56, and the cost of “operating proper,” $224,502 22, leaving $270,006 42, as net carnings. During the year $66,173 42 was expended in filling up trestle work and in the purchase of additional engines and machinery. ‘The receipts of the Ohio and Mississippi road for October were, in roum€ numbers, one hundred and sixty-five thousand dollars, Of this amount some- thing over one hundred and ten thousand dollars was from passengers. In the case of the Commonwealth against Mc Allis ter and Hess, recently carried to the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania on a writ of error to the Court of Common Pleas of Lancaster county, it was decided that “when an administrator or trustee de- posits trust funds in his own name in a bank or savings institution which fails, the loss shall fall upon him, and not upon the cestui que trust.” The Court held that “the liability of an administrator or trustee for funds lost by the failure of the bank or institation in which they have been deposited does not depend upon the good faith, prudence or judgment with which he may have acted, nor upon the fact that he has deposited his own funds in the same place. He is personally responsible for the loss of the money deposited in his name, because he did not make the deposit as administrator or trustee.

The New Orleans Picayune of Nov. 2 says: Thea roturna are favorable, and exhibit greatly in | creased strength all round, The largest reduction in tin | bilities is on the part of the Citizons’ Rank—eay #226,000— | and oy next Saterday the deposits of this institution will | probably be below $600,000, The circulation has ceased ‘| to come in as rapidly as before, and it is likely now tha | but very little more will be presented, a the bulk is ou | in this State, where the great solveucy of the bank is so [ thoroughly understood and appreciated. The total increase of epecie the lowest point on the 17th is $682,000. whorens the receipts of gold and silver in the meantime have reached upwarde of a million, The reduced cireula tion accounts for this, besides which there is specie beld somewhere on apecial deposit ‘There are nine banks in the city of New Orleans. Four of them—the Citizens’ Bank, the Canal Bank, | the Bank of Louisiana, and the Louisiana State Bank—are banks with special charters. Five are | working under the general banking law of 1853, viz.: | the Bank of New Orleans, the Mechanics’ and Trad- | ers’ Bank, the Union Bank, the Southern Bank and | the Bank of James Robb. Five of these nine banks, | viz., the Bank of Louisiana, the Louisiana State | ' Buok, and the Canal Bauk, among the chartered James Robb, among the free banks, have never sus- pended a moment on any class of their obligations. They were specie paying banks throughout, The Citizens’ Bank paid its circulation in specie when demanded, all the time. The bank did not pay its banks, and the Southern Bank and the Bank of | deposits for a season, but has resumed and pays all | ita obligations now, in full,on demand. There are, therefore, three only of the nine banks in a state of suspension, and this has not been total with them. They have continued to pay their five dollar notes on demand, and their condition, of which the public has proof in their printed statements, is improving so fast that with the increasing solidity of the basis and the restored confidence which is felt throughout the community, their early resumption may be cal- culated upon with certainty. ‘Barunpay, Nov. 14, 1867. 200 shs Erie RR. » SELESeELSSSZESE 260c0 do 34m b'#sb3 800 do bonds 1876 1000 ErieRRCy bs ‘71 8000 do... 1000 HudRRR3d mig 12600 Ill Cen RK bes. $000 do... 580 1000 LaCr&Mil 1g bs. 200 ehs Union Bank 10 Am Ex Bank. 20 Continental P RR ee 100 Canton Com 76 ClevCol&Ci 25 do, 162 5 202 Penn Coal Co. 1060 Cum Coal Co. 150 600 do.. 83 181 Clev & Pitts RR. 13 86 Gal & Chi RK... cr . bso 1860 250 cl b6o 303 Chi & Rit RR... 76 100 815 75 50 360 74 100 d p60 76% 50 do. b3 100 Harlem RR. + O% 380 Hudson Riv RR... wood 9% 50 oe asee 9 60 Mil & Mias RR... oy 100Har’m RR pref b30 2!

The dry goods trade the present week has exhibit ed greater animation among jobbers, who, as a gene- ral thing, have been doing more business with coun try merchants, especially through the Western and middle States. The favorable weather and the late- ness of the fall trade have combined to render the trade more active. Many customers, who were either frightened off or were refused credit during | the severest pinch of the panic, have, to a great ex tent, reappeared in the market, and have made cau- tious purchases of goods needed to replenish their stocks. With more or less amelioration of the coun- try exchanges, collections still continued to improve; having, also, been aided by the forwarding of pro- duce to market. The city retail trade has been ent up by the recent action of some of the job- bers in throwing open their stores to retail buyers, at wholesale prices, This movement, however, has now received a check, and ia not likely to extend beyond those with whom it chiefly began. sale of merino shawls imported by Messrs. Benkard & Hutton, came off on the 7th at public auction, and the prices obtained did not vary materially from the sale of similar goods made on the agi day. On the 13th inst. Messrs, Van- wyck, Townsend & Warren, held a special sale of French goods of the importation of Messrs. L. & B. Curtis & Co., at six months’ credit for approved en- dorsed notes all sums under $100 to be paid in cash. The catal comprised abont 60 , including broche cashmere scarfs, silk | scarfs shawls, broche Vienna shawls, all wool, with a good assortment and desirable styles of Saxony shawls, and Paris merino plaids, samme | flannels, tnouselino de laines, Paris merino robes and silk mantilla velveta, and a considerable variety of French silk The sale drew a good company, and was to be a fair one under the circumstances. The swles of Chenille scarfs and shawls did not do better than vious sales of similar goods. Saxony shawls, owever, being of good quality amd patterns, sold well, and commanded higher prices than previous sales of similar goods. The mouseline de laines were without change of importance, while silk were and many lots were pen Ju or 'y years auction sales are measurably over by this time, but the fall trade continuing later than usual, several sales are to come off next week. Several cotton mills at the East continue to work on short time, while some few have resumed work in whole or in part. The Ocean Mill, at New ort, has stopped one narter of its machines, but expected to keep the remainder running for the winter. e have no further change of moment to notice in the prices of domestic goods. Trade with im- porters was dull, and an effort was to be made on their part to rednee the length of credit hitherto al- lowed on the sale of goods to jobbers, with a view of inaugurating a more healthy system in the trade. Foreign goods were irregular, according to the @hamcter of the goods and the wants « trade, ‘aad with a moderate business doing. Staple goods, both domestic and foreign, are expected to do bet- ter the next season, when stocks will be light, and the freeh unportations in the meantime limited. ‘The Grain Trade of Chicago. cmH In Stowe B loner. wi One % wo 1! 1 AT 377 aot 4n3 308, ST60K8 TGS wON SUT 1,447,249 56.181 1,091 001 2,021,538 WATS 2,713,702 88.807 GO180 1,618 864 2 199,580 3.855.870 18ST -2RGR om IGS Tetal 208,807 8,204,178 6,042,211 1,000,096 16,004,194 Sinpwerts wy Link Tad Flour, Wheat Corn.
