NEW YORK HfRALD, SATURDAY, JULY 4, 1868—TRIPLE FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, week ending to-day shows @ decrease of $1,727,364 in iegal tender notes and an tncrease of $4,201,430 in specie. The deposits have increased $6,743,509 and the loans $5,441,895, ang the circulation has de- creased $16,255. The totals of the present and pre- vious statements are as subjoined :— Fripay, July 3—6 P. M. The market for government securities continues somewhat dull and unsettled under the combined effects of the forthcoming Democratic Convention and the bill taxing the interest on bonds. Although the bill on belng reported by the Committee of Ways and Means to the House was accompanied by @ pro- teat it is a popular measure, and the outcry against it by the republican journals is uncalled for. As & matter of course it is unpalatable to them, for they do not consider it in accordance with republican princi- ples; but as a measure tending to the equalization of taxation it has the support of this journal, and many of the bondholders are ita advocates, Moreover the proposed tax is not aheavy one, when we consider the high rates of interest calculated in currency which the bonds bear, and the bondholders as a class. can as wel! afford to pay it as the people at large can their ordinary taxes. The income derived from this tax might be appropriated with advantage to the establisument of @ sinking fund for the reduction of the public debt. It is claimed that the bondholders invested tn our national securities during the war to save the life of the nation, and that the interest ought neither to be taxed nor reduced; but the fact 4s that those who bought bonds in war time did so because they thought them a good investment and just as they would have parchased any other kind of property, while with respect to the reduction of the rate of interest on the public debt the financial his- tory of Eugland furnishes us with several examples, and the question is asked if England reduced the rate of interest om her debt why cannot we do the same in our own case? The bill is one which Congress should pass for the relief of tax- payers in general regardless of the opposition which it has elicited, The market for governments closed steady on the street at the subjoined quotations:— Registered, 1881, 112% a 113; coupon, 1881, 113% a 11344; 5-20's, registered, 1962, 109 a 109%; 5-20’s, coupon, 1862, 113 a 113%; do., 1864, 110% a 11034; do., 1865, 1114 a 11134; do., 1865, January and July, ‘The stock market was strong at the opening, and at the ten o’clock open board New York Central sold at 134% a 135; Erie, 70% @ 10%; Hudson River, 13934 @ 139%; Reading, ex dividend, 96% & 96%; Michigan Southern, 915 a 91%; Cleveland and Pitts- burg, ex dividend, 87 a 87%; Rock Island, 106 § 1053; Northwestern, 75% a 76; preferred, 70% a 79s.

An important suit was commenced to-day in the Supreme Court of this district against the Union Pacific Railroad Company and the Crédit Mobilier of America by James Fisk, Jr, @ stockholder, and also a subscriber for twenty thousand shares of the company’s stock, which he failed to receive, although he tendered the money for the same. The plaintiff alleges that the various grants, rights and privileges conferred upon the company by Congress are of far greater money value than the cost of constructing and equipping the railway, and that instead of undertak- ing by their own officers the task of constructing the line, or making @ reasonable contract for the work, the directors, or @ controlling number of them, in order to secure to themselves personally great pro- ts and advantages, entered into an arrangement by whioh they established the Crédit Mobilier, and for carrying and 1-64 per diem, as grell as without in- terest, The Sub-Treasury disbursed $1,350,000 in coin.

OBITUARY. Lafayette C. Baker. This gentioman, well Known during and since the war aa chief of the government detective force, died in Philadelphia on yesterday morning, aged about forty-two years, He was @ native of this State, hav. ing been born in Central New York about the year 1826. His earlier years were spent ona farm in the Weat, but becoming tired of agricultural pursuits he removed to Philadelphia, Where he worked as a me- chanic. In 1861 he went to California and became conspicuous by his connection with the Vigilance Committee of San Francisco, After @ diversified career of over ten years the fortunes of war made him Chief of the Government Detective Force during the rebellion. “Charity for his memory makes it preferable to say as little as possible of the course he pursued during that period. That he waa @ willing tool of Mr. Stanton tere appears to be no doubt. His arrests of citizens Who were innocent of offence; his spy system on President Jolson, and his gon- eral conduct eventually Caused his dismission from the service. Since then he has resided im Philadel- phia, tn which city he i# reported to have possessed considerable property. Lawrence Van Buron.

There was quite a brilliant gathering yesterday afternoon at the School of Our Lady of Mercy, East Houston street, for the purpose of witnessing the ceremonies and performances connected with the annual distribution of prizes. The audience was matnly composed of parents, guardians and friends of the young ladies attending the school, The Rev. J. P. Kearney and a number of Catholic clergymon were present and seemed highly pleased at the creditable manner in which the scholars ac- acquitted themselves, The entertainment was opened with the grand mach, ‘Souvenir de Norma,” whuch was exceedingly well rendered by the Misses Martins, M. Rivett, K. Monaghan, C. Ravaux, E. Shannon, A. Cochran, K. Chattillon, E. ” who performed in couples—two to each of the four pianos. A choir of the scholars then sang the “Fairy Chimes,” and a very pretty chime the little fairies made of it. ‘The chorug served as an overture toa Shariming. little school drama, entitled “The Witch of Rosenburg,’ written by his Eminence the late Cardinal Wiseman, the incline characters be! admirably, sustained b; Martins, M.

A handsome gold medal, the reward of ex- emplary conduct and 1 petrpeogue in studies, was pre- sented to Miss L. M. Martins, who was decidedly the star of the entertainment. Premiums were awarded for proficiency in the following branches of educa- tion:—Ohristian Doctrine, Sacred History, Political Economy, History, Needlework, French, Writing, Arithmetic, Algebra, Drawing and Vocal and Instru- mental Music. Un Pieux Mensonge, which was per- formed in the French language, was a decided suc- cess. With a few excentions the accent of the lady performers may be pronowaned as faultless, After a short but touching farewell address from Miss L. M. Martins the ceremonies were brought to an appri priate close, BOARD OF HEALTH. The members of this Board assembled yesterday afternoon for the purpose of attending to a large amount of routine and other business which had ac- cumulated during the past two weeks. Mr. George B. Lincoln presided, A resolution was introduced and adopted that all permits granted by the Board to the fat boiling es- tablishments be revoked, the same to go into effect the 20th July. sy The subject of the recent decision ‘of the Court of Appeals sustaining the Board of Health against the action of the butchers and the slaughter men was taken up for consideration, when, after some discus- sion on the subject, it was resolved that a committee of three be appointed to confer with those against whom the decision was rendered, and arrange for a compliance with the necessary requirements of the Board in regard to the location and existence of slaughter houses. This course was adopted with a view to do away with the issuing of a peremptory order calling for immediate compliance. The com- mule consists of Mr. Acton and Drs, Swinburne and ne. It was resolved that on and after the 10th inst. cat- tle shall not be driven through the public streets during the day. The hours and the streets at which and through which they may be driven have not yet been agreed upon, and the previous committee have been empowered to nominate both, The subject in relation to the cleaning of streets which shall in the estimation of the Board require additional cleaning from motives of pabito health was taken up, but after same discussion upon the subject was dropped without final acti: ir. EATON, counsel to the Board, called attention to the Megailty of marriages performed by notaries ublic in city. It is contended that these parties ave no power legally to perform the marriage cere- mony; that people so married apply to the istrar for a certificate and on that document certify to a legal marriage, The subject will come up again for future action.

Stockman played finely at short, and fully sustained his reputation. He let the ball go over to firat with tremendous force, but Bearman took it every time. Flanly at second did full justice to his position and at the bat was ter- rifle; twice he got to third base on good hits and made once @ clean home run. Stockman and Jewett also batted weil, and the latter as catcher played pluckily and successfully against the ‘‘juvenile can- non balls.” Of the Eckfords Patterson did beat at the bat. He is a good general player, and it is to be hoped that whatever speil the Eckiords have put on him lately to bring out his good points, which were for a while rather dormant, will be kept in force. Allison and Martin also, at the bat, did good execu- tion. A very handsome “line” catch was made by Stockman, and some very handsome catches were made by Devyr, Jewett, Liodes and Eggier. ‘The score of the game is as follows;— MOTCAL.
