The passage of the Gold bill seemed to produee very Gittle effect on the market to-day. It opened in the thorning at 196%, went up one per cent, and afterwards old on the fractions berdering 197. Tho law, as has fro- quently been stated, will check the operations of a class ‘Of speculators who buy and sell on time, and ronder the. Quotatiogs often merely nominal. All those who hat heretofore boon dealing ostensibly in gold, with bardly a, @ollar to.pay with and not an ounce to deliver, will fod. Gheir occupation gone, and the premium which will hence forth be.ansounced may be regarded as being based upon ectual sales, and whatever it may be it will show the in- Grinsic value of coin as compared with the currency. Money continues easy at 6 a 7 per ceut; but the demand Bs light and the market unsettled. Exobange is dull at 109% a 140 for gold and 21634 a 217 for currepcy. There is pe disposition to purchase ster- Bing bills until it is known what effect the Gold bill will hove on the market a The steamsbip Australasian, fer Liverpool to day, took out $574,717 in specie, The following ts the report of the Assistant Trea. eurer:— Amount on hand. We iearn from Wasbingion that the bids for the new ‘Donds of 1481 averaged from four anda balf to Ove per cent premiam, (be offers ranging between par and eight er cent, The recent demand of the government for a loan of Boventy five millions on the bonds of 1881 having been all Did for, and no doubt accepted, the ten-forty loan will ©! course aow atiract, with more pow inducements Chan belore, the popular favor. It is the’only receptacle for capital which pays interest in coin, and which Is thus ndered the most profitable investment, safety oon- Gidered, that has been offered since the Ave-twenty loan ‘was on the market. The latter bonds command a pre-,, poium of five to six per cent, and are subject to all within four years from the present time, while Ghose of the new loan can be bad at par in, Sums as low as Gfiy dfiars, and cannot be called for in ess than ten years, and must then be redeemed ia gold. ‘The interest under the present premium on gold is nearly fen per cent, while money in the New York market is Darely worth six. Thes¢ are {uducemenis which the Public cannot cf course be blind to,and are such as will Cause the loan, no doubt, to be spedily absorbed. ‘The Manufacturers’ and Merchants’ Bank of this city will pay, July 1, a dividend of four per,cent, free of tax; he Past River Savings Bank will pay, 18th July, their usual semi-aunual divideuds; the Obemung Railroad will pay on demand a quarterly dividend of two per cent, free of government tax.
