His challenge to all Purope, which have already published, has been scooped by Meunton, the well known English chess suthor, and the meeting will take place some time in Septem- Der next. As yot, Staunton and Morphy Dave no} met; and there is, so far, no means of testing We relative skill of the two champions. The match is for 2800 (82,500) aside. Twenty one games are to be played, s@raws not counted, and the winner of a majority of them Wil take the stakes. sf This also understood that negotiations are on the tapis flor chees covtests between Morphy and Harwitz, while ft fw not unlikely that the American champion will break & Iamce with Professor Anderssen, the great Prussian player.

MONEY MARKET. Sarurpay, July 4-6 P.M. | The commercial news by the Indian, which ar- | rived this evening at Quebec, will be found in an- other column. She brings fourdays later intelli- gence. The stock market opened this morning with a very healthy feeling, and rather a disposition to buy on the part of the smaller operators. On the first call, however, this feeling was checked by the bold | offerings of stock by parties not hitherto identified | itn with the bears. New York Central, Galena and Rock Island were the stocks most freely offered; of these securities there seemed to be 80 much to sell that not even the bold purchases of the bull party | would avail to prevent a decline. The old chief of the | bears—the veteran who, not so very long since, was vehemently assailed by certain public prints as the malicious enemy of our great industrial and railroad interests—was this morning almost the only power" ful iriénd those railroads had. But his purchases, | S large as they were, could not prevent a decline in New York Central from 85} to 84], and in Rock Island from 77} to 773. A rumor spread through the board daring the first call that the New York Cen- tral dividend was to be three, instead of four, per cent. The only basis for such @ ramor was the gratuitous supposition that the © Central would follow the example of the Galena. No- thing has yet been decided in relation to the Central dividend; bot so far as may be judged from the most positive assurances of those who will have the decision of the question in their hands, there is not the least shadow of ground for supposing | that the dividend will be less than usual. Whatever the earnings of the road may be, the Central divi- dends will continue to be four per cent half yearly. As usual at the present time, when the public in- | tervenes at the board as a seller only, the decline in New York Central and the Western roads affects to some extent the general market. Erie fell off 3; Harlem, }j; Reading, |; La Crosse, }, &c.,&c. The exceptions to the general rule were Pacific Mail, which continues to improve under the combined in fluence of the profitable employment of the Pacific boats, and the demand for stock from the bears; Michigan Central, which is scarce, and which rises | }percenton each order for investment; Panama, which is } better; and Illinois Central, whose friends consider the news from England favorable, and almost tantamount to an assurance that the English holders will pay the new assessment and to continue to hold their stock. The bond market was very dull, as usual. A few parcels of State stocks were sold at last quotations. La Crosse Jand grants im- proved ja j, on the strength of renewed confidence in the ultimate success of the company in acquiring the land. There is nothing new to report in bank | stocks. The market closed dull and weak; the | board adjourning over to Monday, but leaving the room open for such operators as chose to congregate ; there.
