FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. ———=—< Farar, July 4—6 P.M ‘Tne stook market was strong, but not very active, at ‘the first board this morning. New York Central closed ‘3 higher than at the second board yesterday, Erie 2}, Hudson River }, Reading %, Michigan Southern X, Cleveland and Pittsburg 134, Northwestern %, Ohio and Mississippi certificates 3, Rock Island 1, Fort Wayne 1. Quicksilver was unchanged. Government securities were ‘also strong. Coupon five-twenties advanced 3, coupon ‘eixes of 1881 3. At the open board, at one o'clock, prices were @ fraction higher. Coupon ten-forties sold at 08%. At the second board the market was dull ‘and lower. Erie showed a decline from the closing * price at the @rst board of i, New York Central , Michi- gan Southern 34, Rock Island 13¢, Fort Wayne 1%, Obio ‘and Mississippi ogrtificates 3, Quicksilver %. Govern- ment seouritiescontinued strong, and coupon fve- ¢wenties advanced 1. At the second open board the market was heavy, and prices declined on the call, Now York Central closed at 24%, Erie 80%, Hudson River 110, Michigan Southern 643, Reading 100, Illinois Central 138}, Cleveland and Pittsburg 68}, Kock Island 106%, Northwostern 27%, Fort Wayne 97, Cumberland 41%, Quicksilver 6134, Can- ton Company 40. Later, on the street, Erie delined to 80, and the whole market weakened. ‘The increased activity in money contiaues, but the supply of bankable funds is still in excess of the require- ments of borrowers. Call loans are made freely at § por cent on governments and §a6on rallway and miscol- Ianeous collaterals. Tho bears, who constitute the minority on the Stock Exchange at present, have been alarming the bulls by predicting a tight money market, which, in the existing condition of affairs, is simply ‘an impossibility, The money market Is only to be called moderately active now, because tt contrasis with the sluggishness which has preceded it. So long as the tide of paper money inflation continues to rise--and it is likely long to continue to do so—the supply of currency will be in excess of the demand, although tho rate of interest may advance to seven per cent. Tho necessities of the ‘Treasury are such that ‘an easy money market is indispensable to it, and tho national bank issues are constantly augmenting the volume of the paper money affout, and promise soon to reach the Hmit of three hundred mil- lions. An effort is about to be made by the sub-aegents to subscribe for the remaining ninety millions or s0 of the seven-thirty loan immediately, in order to meet the ‘urgent demands of the government. The straits of the Treasury are still such that it is unable to pay more than about twenty-five per cent of the requisitions upon 4t in ourrency, and the remainder in certificates. Yet the seven-thirty loan is being subscribed ‘to at the rate of from twenty-five to thirty-five millions per week, and an internal revenue agerogating a little more than two hundred millions a year is constantly contributing to the “amount inthe Treasury.’? Instead of three thousand millions the natioml debt now appears likely to aggregate from four to five thousand millions by the timo the government has effected a full settle- ment with all its creditors. The discount line is dull, and first class commercial paper passes at 7. 8 per cent. Gold was very strong till late in the afternoon, when it weakened a trifle. The demand for cash gold, which commanded 1-32 in the morning, abated, and loans were made flat before the close of business, The opening price was 143, after which it advanced 4%, and then receded gradually to 14234, at which it closed at five PM. Foreign exchange has been dull but steady. Bankers’ etorling at sixty days was quoted at 108% a 10034, and 1105 at short sight. Mercantile bills continue scarce. Opinions are divided as to the next advices from Europe respecting five-twenties. On the sailing of ‘the Persia the Africa's news, reporting gold at 141 onthe 2ist of June (her day of sailing from Boston), ‘and 143 on the following day (telegraphed to her at Hali- fax), had not been received in London. But tho steam- ers which left hore on the proceding Saturday, and which had arrived before the Porsia’s departure, tgok out the quotation of 1435 2%. The Africa’s advices, therefore, 60 far as tho price of gold is concerned, would have been ‘without material eflect upon the price of five-twentics. ‘Phe importations of dry goods at this port during the week ending July 12 compare as follows with those of the previous week :— we —tuly 5—— ae July 122— Consumption, Pky: Value.

The amounts are not apportioned to the dif- ferent banks, but any banks baving a large unemployed surplvs can loan such an amount as they think proper. Certificates are issued for the money, and these are authorized to be considered as part of the lawful money which such banks aro required to hold as a reserve, and can be used in the daily settlements at the Clear- ing Honse, thereby greatly facilitating the move- ments in that department of financial business. iment is understood to ha ork for a long time, The arrangement with the Boston banks, recently entered into, was not suggested by the agents of the Treasury Department, but we understand was proposed by the Clearance House As- sociation on account of the facilities above noticed, and was ac’epted as being mutually advantageous, the gov- ernment thereby receiving a temporary loan at five por cent interest, instead of six per cent, the rate which all temporary loans have bitherto borne, Many of the banks have not yet decided to dispose of their surplus in this way; but as the arrangement practically gives an oppor- tunity of loaning money and having the use of it at the same time, we think that the privilege will be generally availed of if the market maintains its present easy condi- tion. The certificates are to be of the denominations of $1,000, $5,000 and $10,000. The Chicago Tribune, of the 12th inst., remarks:— The continned activity in wheat, arising from orders from outside parties, includes a very good demand for money from that class of operators, while othor classes of borrowers are not entircly‘idle. The supply of money is abundant and good paper is readily recognized, but there is no disposition on the part of bankers to give en- couragement to wild speculators by indulzing them with. loans for such purposes. Legitimate paper is readily taken at the usual rato of ten per cont. Eastern exchange continues close, porhaps even more 0 than yesterday. Bankers-are very glad to take it at par trom customers, while they pay each other as hich as fifty to seventy-five cents premium for a neces- sary supply. ‘There is none thrown on the market, and if dealers get any they have to goand hunt it up. Wo quote it, as yesterday, par buying; 1-10 selling, with an occasional advance on these figures. Currency is plenty now, and bankers prefer to hold exchange, which is drawine interest, to holding currency, which draws no interost, except borrowers, who are not ovor plenty. ‘The financial condition of the Mississippi and Missouri Railroad Company is reported as follows : Land grant mortgage...

Our Paris Correspondence. Pans, June 30, 1865. Interview Between the Emperor and Manimilian's Special “Ambanador—Great Influa of Americans—The Cabmen’s Strike—The Prince Imperial as a Sculptor, de, M. Eloin, the special Ambassador of Maximilian to the Courts of France, Austria and Belgium, arrived in Paris from Vienna last evening, and has to-day had an inter- viow with the Emperor at the Tuileries, ‘The charactor of the conversation at this meeting, and in what it re- sulted or promised to result, has not yet leaked out. Of one thing, however, you may rest positively assured, and that fs, that M.. Elon has not, either in his interview with Francis Joseph or Napoleon, represented the con- dition of Mexico from a couleur de rose point of view. ‘A few of the remarks and insinuations and references, which even the wisest diplomatist will occasionally por- mit to escape him, have become public, and from theeé ‘and other ciroumstances It may be set down as a fact that M. Eloin came to Europe to represent the desperate con- dition of the Mexican empire and demand further aid in bolstering it up. With the Emperor of Austria he is sald to have failed completely, although Francis Joseph has 60 far yielded to his brother’s demands as to consent to ratify to him a restoration of his agnate rights. A Vienns correspondence, by the way, states that Maximilian, not satisfied with sending from Mexico about a million of francs with which to repair his chateau at Miramar, has just given orders to send to that locality two-thirds of the busts of the great men which he had ordered from artists at Leipsio, one-third of them only being sent to Mexico. I am inclined to believe the last of the story a canard; but there is little doubt that the beautifully situated chateau of Miramar, which was in a condition as dilapidated as his own finances when Maxi- milian left it, is being beautified at the expense of the unfortunate people over whom “Providence (in the form of the Emperor of the French) has called him to rule.”” ‘What a relief and assistance it would be to him and his people if Maximilian could only draw one or more of the prizes in tho Mexican bond lottery, the drawing of which takes place on the 3d of July, when 1,878,000 franos are to be distributed to the bondholders in elght hundred and twenty-three prizes, the highest of which is 000 franca. If the departure of Americans from your side of the water is a noticeable fact, you may judge, perhaps, how much more so is thelr arrival upon this, where for the t four years they have been so scarce, Of course Paris is the centre to reach which they allat first tend, and from which to scatter themsolves over the Continent. In Paris, now, they swarm like bees; and Parisian hotel keepers, shopkeepers, and other interest- ed parties who, garing the four years, have been Dittorly complaining of the absenoo of thoir ‘ohare: Amé- ricains,"” whom they have always regarded as their best customors, aro of course in a state of unbounded delight at seoing them not only come back again, but also at their coming back with such well filed pockets, ‘That portion of the city in the vicinity of the Grand Hotel almost resembles an Amorican town, the familiar ‘cast of the American face greeting one at every step. ‘The strike of the coachmen is soma end, the Jehus having with wonderful unanimity returned to their boxes upon finding that the company was inexora- blo and would not increase their wages.
