FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. onl Frwvay, August 4—6 P. M. ‘The stock market was firm at the first board this morn- ing, and there was an evident subsidence of the recent apprehensions of monetary stringency. . New York Cen- tral closed 4 higher than at the second board yesterday, Hudson River }4, Michigan Southern %, Cleveland and Pittsburg 1, Quicksilver1. Erie was'l lower, Reading 1%, Illinois Central 3{.. Government securities were stronger. Coupon sixes of 1881 improved 3: Coupon five-twenties wore steady at 1053{ a 10634, ten-forties 97; seven-thirty notes of the second series sold at 9974, third series 99, At the open board, at one o'clock, the market waz a shade lower, Afterwards, on the street, it advanced, and at the second boafd it was firm. Erie closed 13¢ higher than at the first board, Michigan Southern 3%, Dlinois Central 34, Cleveland and Pittsburg 34, Northwestern dg, Obio and Mississippi certificates %. New York Con- tral was 3¢ lower, Reading %, Fort Wayne %, Quick- silver 4. Governmeht securities were strong. Coupon five-twenties advanced %, now issue %, seven-thirty notes of the second series 3. At the open board at half-past three the market was dull, Now York Central sold at 93%, Erie 903, Michi- gan Southern 6734, Reading 107%, Cleveland and Pitts- burg Tl, Northwestern 2834, preferred 635. Later, on the street, prices receded a fraction and Erie touched 90. The money market has been easy to-day at seven per cent, and there haye been no complaints of difficulty in borrowing at this rate. The rovived confidence in the future of monetary affairs does much to remove the re- strictions which distrust imposes upon the free circula- tion of capital, and as there is. no occasion for distrust there is no reason why the normal condition of the loan market should bo disturbed. There is not much activity fm the discount line. First class commercial paper passes at 7a9 por cont, and 10a12 for the second grade. The gold market opened steady at 14434, but subec- quently declinod to 143%, under reported sales of coin by the Sub-Treasury. It afterwards improved @ fraction, and closed at 14334 a $. Considerable “short’? sales were made on the theory that Treasury sales will exert a depressing eflect upon tho premium for the time being; Dut this is not the aim of the Secretary of the ‘Treasury in selling the current gold receipts, He probably wishes to got as much currency for his surplus coin as possiblo for the sake of applying the same to current uses, The policy is, however, very questionublo; for, in the first place, it is unauthorized under present circumstances by Congr.ss, and in the second, thore are sound economic Feasons for supposing it to be an injudicious measure even ic it were authorized. Foreign exchange continues dull, but rates are frmor. Bankers’ bills at sixty days aro quoted at 10874, and mer- cantile bills at 10834 a 34. The market for railway shares shows an improved H | i seems to be a little more iriale, itis to bo'ture how much ofthe apparent crass i due fo Pe demand, and 10 ti8 Dierore™ the value of to di it fo. honey rises Sar expect. ‘We have often shown at v ies and the new tedious lengths that the new compani oo fms ‘engagements which have wp drain on our money market; that we have undertaken. almost 9. new. trade of lending, in addition -to the old trade of buying and selling. It wou! id appear that come operations of that ‘sort are at work now. We do not al- lude to any special one of magnitude, but rather to the sum. and total effect of many minor ones. Money has ‘been cheap for a long time, and naturally all who have foreign “commitments,” 25 the Naseloet are anxious to make hay whilethe sun shines, Be- fore’ many days are over we are confident the Bank of England will take care that the rate of interest affords no ‘unnecessary encouragement to foreign investments. ‘The statement of the Bank of England for the week ending July 19 contains the following figures:— ISSUE DEPARTMENT, . . £28,198,880 Governm’t debt, £11,015,100 Notes issued... .£28,798, a ae0'900 Gold coin and é The British Allied Conspiracy for Our National Destruction.

The probability is that stock jobbing motives guided the action of the managers of both these roads. Erie has declined in the face of a four per cont dividend, and Pittsburg has advanced two or ‘threo per cent since the announcement was made that no dividend would be paid, The progress of the national debt since the end of June, 1864, will-be soen by the annexed totuls of the official etatements for the respective dates appended :— Butcl s2.0fte on sas “co osotaae as 9,767,263,275 The total amount of cxports from this port, ex- cluslve of specie, for the week ending August 1, was $1,781,071.

Tie CANADIAN PROFLE VE. THE BRITISH OLIGARCHY. It is but strict justice to the great body of the people of Canada and the ee eles to say that in all this scheming and the mother country they have taken no vol part. The British residents and offictals, together with a small minority, were alone concerned, Nor can it be assumed that their sym- pathies or co-operation could have beon obtained for these plans, except as it was designed, under the dicta- tion of the armed alliance by whose power they were to be carried out, The population of Canada Is estimated at about three andahalf millions, Of these tho number of Irish in Lower Canada is double that of all tho English and Scotch together, while in beg ooh Canada the number of Irish is equal to the total of Scotch and English. Taking the French population into account and a large majorit; of the natives of the provinces, and placing them ‘with the Irish, you can realize how small a minority of the people are in natural rapport with the tory cliquo in control of the government, and in hearty co-operation with its schemes, During tho time of the threatened rupture growing out of the Trent aguir, when the city ride which Walbridge took on the back of tho British lion, holding on to bis mane while the allegorical animal capored about, with tho British flag flourishing over the great lakes from the tuft of bis royal tail, can amount to little more than the like eccentric exhibition of Walbridge in his former Congressional district, when he made the abortive and ludicrous ‘‘chairing” canvass of the city in English style on an express wagon, with the American flag tied around his ample belly, the laugh- ing stock of the town. Nor is the second great aim of the convention more likcly to meet with much practical favor just yot. This “himportant hobject,”’ as expressed in the characteristic and significant accent of the Presi- dent of the Board of Trade of Detroit, who called and opened the convention, was tho “canal haround the Falls of Nibagara, to hopon a houtict from Lake Horie to the hovean."’ The bargaining and logrolling inconsist- encies of this convention of traders and forwarders aro Andeed entitled to but little weight. Their contradictory rosolutions in favor of fro trade and high protective tariffs, denouncing existing internal improvements on the one hand, and demanding thetr increase and oxten- sion On the other; professing anxious care for American interests, and conspiring meantime in the pay and re- tainetship of the British colonial office, for the solo ad vantage and extension of British empire at the espense of our national existenco—these resolutions and their authow need to be regarded by the light of a wider ox- ‘Sra was mode active, and wore a shade firmer.

Had war broken out between the United States and Great Britain ag an episode of the recent difficulties, the Canadas would have boen the battle ground without a doubt, in which event they would have beon merely the victims of their connection with the mother country, It is even now fully conceded that the raids and piracics, —the wheat market was dull and beavy, and prices de- cimed Ie, a 2c. a bushel owing mainly to the fall in gold.
