Increased rage on his part, and much laughter and merriment among the multitude, were the immediate results of this scorification. The second novelty was this:—A long, iron-headed spear, about eight inches in circumference, was held by one of the in such @ position that while one end rested on the ground against a spike, which prevented its slipping back, the other and spear ‘end pointed towards the door through which the bulls entered the arena, The door was flung open, and the kneeling performer, who leaned forward with his chest against the pole, poised the latter steadily, and as the bull came bounding forward ing he directed! the sharp point of the spear be. ®.

Last Monday they showed an average of $22,464,250; since then they have lost, by export, something over $2,500,000, and have gained nearly a million from the Sub-Treasury, be- sides some small gains from the country. A pre- vailing estimate of their showing to-morrow is $21,000,000. A California steamer will shortly ar- rive with the uanal remittance, which will replenish the reserve. It is generally expected that the banks will show a decline in loans to-morrow. Their last statement showed an average discount line of $127,208,201, an increase of $1,321,636 from the previous week; this time last year the loans stood at $121,614,633. Several large institutions which do business with the West continue to extend liberal credits to parties engaged in mov- ing the crops; but as @ general rule it is sup- posed that the loans will show a reduction, quite a number of call loans having been transferred to private capitalists, and the line of mercantile pa- per under discount having been reduced. A pro- per regard for the future would indicate contrac- tion as the soundest policy to be pursued just ow, though the rivalry between bank and bank, and the difficulty of earning large dividends are «pite likely to indace some of the heavy instita- tioma to avail themselves of the present crisis to eare some money. Mosey was active all last week.

Provisions,—l’ork—The market was firm, with sales of decline in the importation of dry goods and general merchandise, and the increase of exports of produce, have made a vast difference in the business of the regular exchange houses this season; though there has been a small margin for profit on shipments of specie to cover exchange, very little money has been made by shippers since April last. The ship- ments are considerably below the average forsome years past. Nothing is yet known of the intentions of the Se- eretary of the Treasury with regard to the new loan authorized by Congress. The call for bids cannot be long delayed, though the renewal of Treasary notes on the holders’ terms, at the last moment, has relieved Mr. Cobb from any immediate neces- sities. The whole $20,000,000 of authorized Trea- sury notes are now afloat, bearing an average rate of interest of about 5j per cent—considerably more than the publit is paying for money. The six per cent Treasury notes, which Mr. Cobb renewed at par, are worth a premium of} a 1 per cent. hye ape I Melee nn parce gd so if + a iy re lo The course of the stock’market during the past ant, with eales of 200 5 300 bole including Country month has been as follows:— mees at $4 50 a $6. ed mess at $8 62}, a $10 ‘ 2, | and extra do. at 811 a $12 50.

During the early partof the week the stock mar- ket was dull, and prices were lower. Within the past day or two, however, a manifest improvement has taken place in most securities, the West- ern railway shares being the favorites among operators, It looks as thongh the public, or that portion of them which speculates in stocks, have come to the conclusion that ‘‘the bottom’? has been reached, and that the crop, which is now within a few days of harvest, will shortly cause a sensible appreciation in the prices of most railway securities. This impression is confirmed by the marked advance in Galena, which, of all the lead- ing Western roads, is at present doing the worst, being engaged ina severe competition with the Wisconsin roads and the Llinois Central, and having thus far this year earned even less money than last: The prospects of the Rock Island, the Toledo, the Michigan Southern and the New York Central are bright, and account for the speculative purchases which have been made of late. Pacific Mail hangs in the neighborhood of 90. The overissue, as far as ascertained, amounts to vee maaee ever. ‘Spray mond.
