8) , NANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. - raf ro ‘s0ay, Oct, 20-6 P; ML Yn gold market has Geen dull and steady to-day, with ‘the openiag and (he cfoog transactions at 142 and the om (reme range (rom 141!_ to 14244. The disbursements of te Sub- Treasury, in anticlpation of the coin interest due en the ist of the coming month oa the fve-twenties of 1862, 1804 and 1566, increased the floatiog supply and caused loans to be made without interest and at 1a & per cent per annum for carrymg. The bears baye, consequeatiy, no didicelsy in borrowing to make their clearings; but those who expected the price to @eclino materiaily in consequence of whe interest pay- ments have thus far been disappointed. Owing to causes hereafter referred to, bewever, only sbout acjuarter of Ako amount to be disbursed at this centre was drawn esterday, The advance in the rates of foreign ex- change since the begiening of the week i# due mainly ‘to the increased supply of cash gold, importers and ‘others baving previously deferred their purchases 10 wiew of the high borrewing rates paid for eoir. ‘Whe rates of exchange had at the same time ‘Been artificially depressed by some of the leading draw- ‘ers for th e of buying bills at the dechne, and thus @ sharp reaction was, a3 wo foreshadowed, rendered Mevitadle. Ths recovery bas a direct tendency to Strengthen the gold market, xithough the rates are still bolow the specie shipping poiat, The gross clearings amoynted to $65,060,000, the gold balances to $1,665,960 ‘and the currency balances to $2,287,715, There is ne new feature to chronicle tm the stock market, and both bells end bears are alke waiting for somethiog to turn up. Notwithstanding more ample monetary facilities chan were generally looked forward to, the bull Cliques seem to ‘esitate about adding to their load of securities, and the atreet looks om apatheti- cally, ‘Inroe stocks hold up the entire market, and two Of these are non end paying railway shares of un- certain yalue—nemely, Erieand Northwestern common— the third being New York Central, a six per cent atock, which ts selling for 113; while United States five- twonties, which yield six per cent in gold, are quoted at 107, Neither Erte nor Northwestern is worth at the present time anything like the price to which it bas been clevaied by clique manipulation, and neither in- Vesiers nor prudent speculators would buy the one or the other; but the cliques are saddled with them, and on the principle of “in for a@ penny im for ® pound,” they’ may endeavor to carry them higher, but a close corner in either is impossiole. The mere fact that two such stocks as these should be irmly upheld wile the sound ten per cent stocks are droop- dmg goes to prove the artificial character of the market and the demoralizing effects of clique movements. The Bick Exchange iso entirely deserted by the outside public that it matters very little whether prices go up or down, and gambling ja stocks is so much like gam- dling in anything else that the result to either bulls or Dears is as uncertain as a throw of dice; but the mone- tary conditions affecting the market are at present in favor of the bulls. There was very little business transacted in govern- mont securities at the counters of the leading dealers during the morning, and prices were a fraction lower in Some instances than at the close yesterday; but after noon the market became firm and there was a good de- mand for the various issues of five-twenties, and espe- Gully the old sixty-flves, which sold at 109%; The ab. sence of European quotations checked in some degree tho upward tendency of prices, and the wide differences Detween the views of buyers and gellers contributed to @ulness; but nevertheless the market closed strong, and sbould there be no news of @ seriously disturbing char- acter from Europe prices cannot fai! to improve rapidly under the present ease in money. The demand for rein- vestment of the November interest has not yet set in, owing to bonds without the immatured coupons attached mot being recognized by the Stock Exchange, except with gold checks, for the oxact amount of the missing coupons attached. A large portion of the in- terest duo on the Ist proximo on five-twen- ties held abroad will be reinvested in these Donds, but the foreign bankers in nearly every in- stance will defer their purchases until they are quoted @x the November coupon, as they will not be re- quired for shipment prior to that time. The closing quotations were as subjoined:—Registered, 1881, ULF 2 111%; coupon, 1881, 111% a 11174; 5-20's, regis fered, 1862, 104 a 104%; 5-20's, coupon, 1862, 112% a 1125; ; 5-20's, coupon, 1864, 10944 a 109% ; 5-20"s, coupon, 1865, 1005; @ 109%; do. do., January and July,’ 107 @ 107%; 5-20's, coupon, 1867, 107 a 10714; 10-40's, Tegistered, 10034 a 10014; 10-40's, coupon, 10034 a 10014; Sune 7-30’s, 105 a 105%; July 7-30's, 105 a 105%; Decomber compounds, 1864, 118%; May do., 1865, 117% a 1174; August do. do., 6X » 116%; Septem- der do. go., 115% a 116; October do. do, 11534 a 115%. Money was in abundant supply at 6 per cent to stock houses in good credit, on approved collaterals, and loans tT wore therefore exceptional. This easo is greater than was expected at thie time by the banks, and they ere consequently beginning to discount prime mercan- tile paper for their customers with a little more freedom at 7 per cont, but outside paper even of the best grade fa out of favor, and it bas to submit to rates as high as @ a 12 per cent among the note brokers. The railway share market was steady at the com- fMencement of business, and at the early session of the pen board New York Central sold at 113% a113\; Erie, 724 072%; Reading, 96%; Michigan Southern, 78; Cleveland and Pittsburg, 81%; Rock Island, 9514; Northwestern, 4774; do. preferred, 65%; Fors Wayne, 07; Western Union Telegrapn, 831¢.

Adams’ Express declined to 653;, and there are signs that tbo inside parties. are selling out, United States declined one per cent. Considering the *xient to which the stocks of the old companies havo Deon “watéred” they are not selling very low, and the original holders can still realize @ handsome profit by selling at the present quotations. The total old capital stock of the Adams, United States and American com- ined was $0,200,000, and it is now $25,000,090, At the last opem board there was a fractional improve- ment, but the volame of business was very light.
