nO $$$ $$ FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL: Suvpay, April 29, 1866, Business was active and the tendency of prices upward ‘on the Stock Exchange during the past week, with the jexception of @ short interval following upon the receipt ‘of the European uews reporting a panic in the London \ptock market attended by a depression of consols to 8576 [a 86x. The secovery was as speedy as the decline, which was slight, as it became better understood that ‘bere was nothing in the condition of monetary affairs ‘abroad which could exert any material effect upon the ‘money market here, The danger of the situation, it was geen, lay in the possible return of our securities in amounts ‘go largo as to create a sudden demand for gold to pay for them, involving, of course, a corresponding advance of the premium and the rates of foreign exchange. But, singularly enough, although five-twenties were quoted in London 7.48 per cent below the home price, they ad- ‘vanced after the arrival of the news from 105% a % to 206 34 a, and remained steady up to the close of the ‘week. This was partly due to the fact that the bonds bad ‘deen sold somewhat largely “short” by the German ‘bankers and others, in anticipation of a quicker and jmore considerable return of them than has been yet felt, yin consequence of which the sellers have been compelled ‘an many instances to ‘cover.’ their contracts at a loss, ‘ehesq securities being: scarce’ in. the. stréct, with a Dorrowing demand in excess of supply. The easo.in money even more than however, en- bled the holders of the bonds to ignore the foreign ‘market, while the current discussion of a prospective five per cent long loan for funding seven-thirties im- parted s rength to all the six per cent stocks. But as ‘the success of such a loan would be dependent upon a ‘Teduction by act of Congress of the rate of interest on ‘ive-twenties upon their maturity, or rather when the ‘option of redemption accrues to the government, at the expiration of five years from their date, there would be @othing to justify any considerable advance in the latter on this ground. The largest portion of them—namely, the first issue, of nearly five hundred and fifteen mil- Rionseare redeomable after the Ist of May next year, ‘and it is probable that Congress will take action upon ithe subject of their maturity and conversion into a tive qper cent stock during the present session, The railway share speculation showed increasing strength and animation, and the transactions on “‘short”” account were limited; for the more prudent of the bears, secing the tide running so strongly against them, are paturflly disinclined to incur a heavy risk for the clear- ance of a light profit, Hence the opposition to the ad- rvancing tendency of prices is diminishing, and all efforts to break the market partake of the character of sporadic aids aimed at the trifling booty of one per cent, which is not always secured. Hudson River has shown great firiiness, and advanced 1} per cont andor its largely increased earnings, Northwestern pre- ferred is strongly beld and advancing from the same cause and the prospect of an early resumption of diy1- dends, In the miscellancous list Mariposa preferred and ‘Canton have been active and in the ascendant, + On Saturday the market was dull, owing to there being no afternoon session of the Stock Exchange, but it closed wteady on the street at the following quotations:—Read- ing 16574 a 106, Hudson River 110% bid, New York Central 923% a 93, Erie 73% a %, Michigan Southern 80% a %, Cleveland and Pittsburg 81% aX, Cleveland and Toledo 104% a 34, Rock Island 1223 a 123, North- ‘western 287% a 29, preferred 5834 a 59. {| The eondition of the money market has been one of unbroken ease, and the Stock Exchange has been freely supplied with loans at 4 a5 percent. The supply of capital seeking employment has been so far in excess of the demand that large amounts have been temporarily invested in government securitics, all descriptions of ‘which have advanced accordingly. The deposits in the city banks have increased from $180,515,381 on the 10th of March to $16,805,578 on the 2st of the current ‘month, and the drain from the westward still continves, ‘The prevailing ease is Nkely to be still further increased ‘by the reduction of the rate of interest on temporary de posits made wiil the Sub-Treasuries to five per cent, ‘the same (0 take eifect from the 15th of May, and the oi cial notification, dated at Washington yesterday, that ‘the Assistant Treasurers at New York, Philadelphia and Boston and tho United States depositaries at Balti- ‘more and Cincinnati Lave been directed to discontinue henceforward the receipt of deposits on account of the @emporary loan, except those intended for clearing house purposes. Every accossion of loanable funds in ‘Wall street must have tho effect, under existing circum. stances and in the present temper of the public mind, of imparting an additional impulse to speculation for a rrise on the Stock Exchange; and all apprehensions that ny funding loan which the Treasury may ultimately ‘offer will tend to disturb this state of affairs are unfound- @d, a8 such will bs exclusively intended to absorb seven- thirty notes and other non-legal tonder portions of the Moating debt; aud so far as it is successful it will merely be in exchanging ene form of security for another. The gold markot waa very firm and the course of tho Premium steadily upward, under the influonco of the fore gn alvices and the scarcity of coin for delivery in Proportion to the demand, loans on Saturday having Doon made at \{ a 5; per cont per diem, with some diffi- and there is some prospect that the relief upon which ‘they rely from the payment of the May coupons will be Bees than they expect, as the supply im the banks and private hoards is reduced to so low a point as to need re- plenishing.
