FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. ‘The gold “HiarKer™ the fluctuations ‘prior to the adjournment of the were from 139% to 140, the closing quotation 139 @ 13946; following which there was in- pressure to sell without any apparent cause, a decline to 139% @ 139% took place. Cash gold in superabundant supply, and from seven per went per annum to &-4ths per cent per diem was for carrying. The gross clearings amounted to J841,481,000, the gold balances to $1,424,020, and the urrency balances to $2,038,329, The tranquil com- jsp io impeachment trial at Washington ® reassuring effect upon the public mind, and 4n this way the event may have influenced the decline $n the premium. On the other hand, the recent passage by the House of the bill repeal- all the internal taxes on manufactures calculated to impart firmness to It, for it will so reduce the revenue that embarrassment to the jury may be the result, Moreover the repeal of fehese taxes will benefit manufacturers more than yconsumers 0 long as the present high tariff remains fanadjusted to this change, and the people at large ‘will therefore hardly be gainers thereby. There is mo uniformity in a system which abolishes taxes on ‘eight thousand articles hitherto taxed, merely be- \ cause they are domestic manufactures, and retains {high duties and heavy internal taxes on nearly every- ‘thing else which is taxable. The entire tariff and in- ‘ternal revenue laws need revision, as well as the of the country generally, and eaeh item in pational aceount must be adjusted to every ther item, so that @ harmonious whole may be the result, The time for this to be practicable has not yet come, however, so far ‘at least as the debt is concerned. Until after the out- standing seven-thirty notes are funded into five- fwenties any new funding scheme is to be deprecated, For it would not only be uncalled for but positively smischievous. There is consequently-no need of any ‘attempt to change the existing condition of financial pflairs at present, but Congress should give its atten- ‘tion te maturing plans for the future, especially with #egard to taxation; but this bill repealing the tax on ‘manofactures loses sight of that equality which phould be kept constantly in view in all systems of taxation. To discriminate in this manner is to make ‘the taxes fall unequally upon the people and to make our tax law even worse than it was before, although the reduction of the burdens of taxation is greatly to e desired, and the more free trade we have consis- dently with the maintenance of the public credit the Detter. a ‘The money market was much less stringent than yesterday, but more owing to the diminished re- ‘quirements of the Stock Exchange than an increased upply of loanable funds, The general rate for call foans was seven per cent, but in some instances the {private bankers asked and obtained this rate in gold for small amounts on miscellaneous collaterals, «Commercial paper, even of the best grade, was slow ‘of sale, except at one or two per cent above the legal wate. The curtailment of the monetary facilities at ‘the disposal of the stock brokers has led to a lull in @peculation, and to-day the aggregate of transactions ‘was lighter than usual for some weeks past, and this ‘was particularly noticeable with regard to Erle. Nothing new in relation to the litiga- tion between the Drew and Vanderbilt arties transpired beyond the arrest of General jiven, the vice president of the company, who was arrested last evening as hé was on the point of taking ‘his departure for Albany to give evidence before the legislative committee appointed to inquire into the affairs of the Erie Company, under an order issued by Judge Barnard against him for contempt of court 1n signing the new certificates of Erle stock issued on Monday last. Orders for the arrest of several other officers of the company have been issued for similar violations of Judge Barnard’s injunction, in consequence of which they confine themselves Strictly to Jersey City night and day, their head- quarters still being at Taylor’s Hotel. Neither the ‘bulls nor the bears are at present doing anything to influence the price of the stock, but how long this Vall in the storm will last is uncertain. ‘There was a decided change for the better in the temper of the market for government securities, and ander a brisk demand, both on speculation and for investment, prices advanced % a % per cent. This feaction from the undue depression which has lat- terly prevailed was not unexpected, and the low prices now current are calculated to stimulate the demand for all the issues of five-twenties, If we compare the quotations at the beginning of January ‘with those of to-day we find that they are now about three per cent lower, allowing for the accrued inter- est. Thus the bonds of 1867 were then quoted at 108, ince which time they have gained 13 in gold inter- est, equivalent to 1%. per cent in currency, while ‘they are selling at 107f or one per cent lower, which makes them, in point of fact, 2 per cent cheaper. Moreover, governments are the lowest priced stocks ‘dn Wall street for the rate of interest they bear, and there is far more safety in buying them than securi- ties of any other kind, notwithstanding the attempts which are made at financial tinkering in Congress ‘by every one who has a political or financial axe to grind. The Sherman funding bill is too damaging and preposterous a measure to be supported by any ‘but a small minority in either House, and all the Kindred schemes for unsettling confidence in the public credit are likely to share asimilar fate. At the close the market was strong at the subjoined quotations:—Registered, 1881, 11144 a 11114; coupon, 1881, 111% a 11144; 5-20's, registered, 1862, 107 a 10734; 4-20's, coupon, 1862, 11044 a 11034; do., 1864, 107% a 1083; do., 1365, 1084 a 10834; do., 1865, January and ‘July, 106% a 107; do., 1867, 1073¢ a 1071¢; 10-40's, regis ‘tered, 10114 a 10134; do., coupon, 101% a 101%; June 7.30’, 105% @ 106%; July 7.30%, 105% a 100%; May compounds, 1864, 118; August do., 117; September do., 11644; October do., 116.

At the first regular board the ‘transactions were on a restricted scale, owing to the fprovailing monetary activity, and the sales of Erie ‘were limited to a hundred shares.

At the open board at half-past three the mar- ‘ket remained dull, and Erie sold at 75)¢ a 75%; New York Central, 127%; Reading, 93%; Pacific Mail, 111%; Western Union Telegraph, 3444. During the remainder of the afternoon there were no material changes, but the market was inactive and drooping, and at the close, shortly before six o'clock, the quotations were as follows:—New York Central, 12714 & 127%; Erle, 753 @ 753%; do. preferred, 76 a 80; Reading, 93% a 93%; Michigan Southern, 895; a 89%; Cleveland and Toledo, 10534; Rock Island, 95% a 9534; Northwestern, 6614; Northwestern preferred, 74 744; Pacific Mail, 111 a 111%; Ohio and Mississippi, 30% & 31; Western Union Telegraph, 34 a 51);.

Loutrell, Kapp, Smith, Bessen- ger, O'Gorman and McElroy, vislied Ward's Island on Thursday to invesiigate the canses of the late riot between the emigrants, In their view the riot is not of so serious a character as portrayed by the daily journals—nobody being ied or even seriously wounded. Mr. O’Gorman addressed the emigrants, who were all assembled in the new barracks, and counseled them to forbearance and manliness, and asked them not to abuse the great advan- tages afforded them by the Commissioners of migration, reminding them that no one doubted their bravery, &c. Mr. Kapp also addressed the Germans in the same style; and Mr. Loutrell spoke kindly to them as an American who offered em all, German and Irish alike, the right hand of fellowship and welcome. The remarks of these gen- tiemen were received with applause and satisiac. tion, and have caused a general good feeling on the island, All is now quiet. No further troubic is ex. pected. It is to be er that a superintendent will oon be appointed. It should be stated that Mr. O'Gorman Was not in the city on the day of the riot. On his return he repaired to Ward's istand, and has fince earnestly interested himseif in the wellare of the mates.
