—_—_—— FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. TAVRSDAY, Jnly 23-6 P. M. ‘The gold market has been steddy and rather quiet to-day, and the fluctuations were from 143% to 143%, with the closing transactions prior to the adjourn- Ment of the board at 143%, following which there was no change in the premium. The supply of coin for immediate delivery was in excess of the borrow- ng demand and loans were made at rates varying from 234 to 4 per cent for carrying. The gross clear- ings amounted to $43,844,000, the gold balances to $1,617,871 and the currency balances to $2,324.304, The steamer Bremen took out $195,000 in specie, On the Stock Exchange there was a moderate degree of Speculative activity in railway shares and prices Were without material change, although late in the afternoon a slight decline was experienced. The temper of the street continues favorable to higher Prices. ‘The market for government securities has been ex- tremely dull all day. At the opening prices were @bout the same as at the close last evening, but at the noon call there were moderate sales to realize, ‘ander which a decline of % a % per cent took place, except in the sixes of 1881, which remained firm un- @er the foreign demand. Five-twenties were steady 4p both London and Frankfort. Advices from Wash- fngton continue to indicate the de‘eat of the Funding Dill, as it is considered impossible for both houses to ‘agree upon any measure of the kind, and, all things ®aken into consideration, it ia much better that e@hould be defeated, although practically ‘the effect of its passage would be about the same as {ts defeat, for as it makes the conversion of the out- Btanding bonds into the proposed new loan optional the result would be that no one would conyert under the act, and therefore it would remain a dead letter. ‘We have had enough financial tinkering in Congress this session, and in view of the ignorance tisplayed by that body in dealing with the finan- cial question it had better leave matters as they are instead of making them worse. ‘What the country stands most in need of 4s increased confidence in the public credit, and this can only be produced by, among other things, @conomy in the national expenditures and eMctency ‘and honesty in the collection of the revenue. Thus far Congress has done a good deal of mischief by ‘unsettling confidence in the value of our securities ‘Without conferring any corresponding advantages, while the policy of the Treasury Departinent has been equally bad. Consequently, with all our abund- ant resources gold is 143, against 125 in March, 1866. The case was very different in England after the termination of her wars with Napoleon, and the Superior result there achieved was due mainly ta her nancial policy, which compelled a steady decline of ‘me gold premium after 1815, and a resumption Of specie payments in 1821. Yet the resources of Great Britain then were inferior to our wn at the present time. With good financial man- agement our bonds ought to command far higher Prices than they have yet touched, and ultimately they will doubtiess do so. At theclose the market ‘was steady at the subjoined quotations:—Registered, 1881, 1153¢ @ 115%; coupon, 1881, 11534 a 115%, 5-20's, Registered, 1862, 109% a 110; 5-20's, coupon, 1862, 114} a 114%; do., 1864, 11136 @ 11134; do.,-1865, 11234 @ 112%; do., 1865, January and July, 10934 a 109%; o., 1867, 10934 @ 100%; do., 1868, 109% @ 10934; 10-40’s, registered, 103 a 198%; 10-40's, coupon, 1084¢ 0 10834; July 7.30’s, 108% a 109; August compounds, 1865, 11834; September do., 118; October do., 117%. There ts no change to note in the condition of the Money market, which is one of extreme ease, Loans ©n miscellaneous collaterals are made freely at four Per cent, while on government securities the gen- eral rate is three, where the regular dealers @re the borrowers. The supply of loanable funds is considerably in excess of the demand and ‘there is no probability of any material change in the spect of affairs for sixty days to come, although the fate of interest will probably be a@@anced to six and seven per cent in September. The indications are, however, against stringency at any time this year, or indeed so long as the government is not a bor- fower, currency contraction remains stopped and trade continues as at present, devoid of speculative fleatares. The monetary ease which prevails here extends to all the leading cities to the East and West and the reserve of national bank notes at ‘this centre is larger than usual. Moreover, the fact that Congresfhas authorized the issue of new three Per cent certificates to nearly the amount of the fompound interest notes outstanding, and that these ‘will be issued to the banks in redemption of the Matter as fast as they matare, all disturbance aris- ing from their maturity will be guarded against, tthe commencement of business the stock market fas firm and moderately active, and at the early ses fion of the open board Cleveland and Pittsburg sold at 88% and Erie at 68%. At the first regular board the et was quiet but steady, and Erie closed 4% er than at the same time yesterday, Michigan Bouthern %, Cleveland and Pittsburg %, North- ‘western 34, Milwaukee and St, Paul 2% and Ohio nd Missjssippi 1; while Cleveland and Toledo was % lower, Fort Wayne %, Tennesseo sixes, ex coupon, 4x, and new issue %. Government securities were @ull and steady. At the open board at onc o'clock the market was dull and slightly lower, but steady @t the quotations, At the second regular board Milwaukee and St. Paul closed 1% higher than at the first reguiar board, and Tennessee sixes, new issue, , While Erie was % lower and ‘Northwestern pre- fees %. Government securities were steady but Gull, Subsequently the Chicago and Northwestern shares declined about one per cent and some of the Other stocks sympathized slightly with this relapse, but at the close at haif-past five the market was Gteady at the following quotations:—New York Cen- ‘tral, 133% a 133%; Erie, 68% a 68%; Reading, 94% a 95; Michigan Southern, 915; a 917; Illinois Central, 461; Cleveland and Pittsburg, 87% a 87%; Rock Island, 10744 @ 10734; Northwestern, 825 a 82%; do.

There is a considerable amount of sterling bills drawn against éhipments of five-twenties, ‘Which are offered at 110, and, in some instances, at 3% & \ below this rate; but the leading drawers re- fuse to name a lower one than 110/¢ for their bills at @ixty days. In addition to this source of supply the bills of the Erie Railway Company against its recent gale of £200,000 of sterilng bonds have found their way to the street. The amount of produce bills offering is, however, light. At the close bankers’ Dills on England, at sixty days, were quoted at 110 a 110%; at three days, 110% @ 110%; commercial bills, 100% a 109%; bankers’ bills on Paris, at sixty days, 13% a 5.1245. Mining shares continue dull and at the first board Corydon sold at 20c., Smith and Parmelee Gold, $3 70; Consolidated Gregory, $4 25; United States (petroleum), $2; Rynd Farm, i8c.; Buchanan Farm, ase.

Encke’s comet is due, says the Providence Journal, and the star gazers are turning their telescopes to the skies in the hope of discovering the presence of the expected visitor. It is interesting chiefly for per- forming its revolution within the boundaries of the solar system for the comparatively short period with- in which {ts revolution takes place, and for the rea- son that we know more about it than we io of those vast ethereal creations which visit our system and then rush off into space. Encke's comet, although it was really discovered by M. Pons on its return in 1816, was seen four times before its identity was determined. It was first detected by a French discoverer in 1786, then by Miss Caroline Herschel in 1795, again by a Frenchman in 1805 and lastly by M. Pons in 1818, Astronomers began to mark the similarity of the orbits of the four comets, and M. Encke, by combining the observations that had been made, de- monstrated that it was one and the same comet which hed appeared at these different times. Encke then predicted ite return in 1822, the position which it would occupy among the stars, and also that it would only be seen in the southern hemisphere. He had the happiness of finding his predictions verified by the observations of an astronomer in New South ‘ales. Since this time there have been thirteen returns of this eccentric visitor to its perihelion, every one of which has been predicted with the greatest accuracy. ‘The orbit of Encke’s comet is an ellipse, inclined at an angle of thirteen degrees to the plane of the earth's orbit. At its nearest point it 1s 31,000,000 miles, and at its most remote point it is 377,000,000 miles from the sun. Ite perihelion is between the sun and Mercury, and its aphelion is between Ju- piter and the Asteroids. Its motion, like that of the planets, is from west to east, and its revolution ts completed in about 1,210 days, subject to a variation which is caused by the disturbing influences of the planetary masses near which it comes in its eccentric course, Encke’s comet 1s by no means @ remarkable one. It is a telescopic comet and consists of a circular patch of nebulous light, a few minutes of an arc in diameter and somewhat condensed toward the cen- tre. Though usually only visible through a telescope it has been Cala! seen by the naked eye. Such was its ate ne in 1828, when it was in a favor- able condition for observation, and its light was equivalent to that of a star of the fifth magnitude. At common times there is no trace of a tail; but on rare occasions a slight one has been discerned, once asa faint brush of light extending frem the comet towards the sun and again with a second appendage opposite the frst.

By observations on its “excessive perturbations’? when nearest Jupiter, the mass of the huge planet was more accurately de- termined, and, in the same manner, when it was nearest Mercury, from the action of the planet, an error was detected in La Place’s value of Mer- cury’s masa, This corrected value is the one adopted in the “American Ephemeris and Naatical Almanac.” During July the comet rises half an hour after midnight, and on the 16th of the month ita place was midway between the Pleiades and loata md and on the 26th tt is between fota Aurigae and Tauri.

Forty Persons Prostrnied—Diseased Milk the Cause. {From the Louisville Democrat, July 21.) Owensboro, in this State, was the scene Saturday evening of the wildest excitement. oo, soon after the guests of the two leading hotels—the Planters’ and Nationai—had partaken of supper they were very nearly all seized with the most violent sickness. It ap- pearedas if suddenly the fever fiend had laid hold upon thera, and the burning, wasting heat was accompa- nied by almost constant vomiting and purging. Of course there was intense alarm felt. ies and gen- tlemena were attacked without premonition and the symptoms of ali were of the most alarming charac- ter. Every physician in the city was summoned and the citizens all aided to their utmost in rendering as- sistance. Over forty persons were thus swiftly stricken down upon beds of disease. Conjectures of every sort were made as to the cause of the sickness. Of course it was poison; but ‘what was the instigation of this attempt at the life of wo many persons could not be imagined. Several physicians thonght that arsenic had been used. But subsequent events offered a more rational and easy solution of the mysterious sickness. It was dis- covered that ail those who had not partaken of milk were wholly exempt. ‘The milk used by the two hotels is furnished by a dairyman living in Indiana. It may be that his cows have become affected by that terrible malady, a Yop If ~ ae a 2 yet L3 a = ture, for attacl y are sul for years” to tent disease. Doubtless, however, the stock had been feeding on some noxious weed or herb, and the sufferers will speedily recover. Among those dangerously affected were Thomas 8. Pettit, editor of the Owensboro Monitor, General Murray, George Long, of the drug house of Scribner & Maginness, ang Middicton Hutchings, of the Foor, house of Kent & Brother, New Albany. any of the parties were vomiting blood, and the most serious apprehensions were felt for their re- covery.

Atlautic, ef Brooklyn, vs, Tri-Mouutain, of Boston, »Another exhibition of the finished aad effective atyn,* Of the Tri-Mountains, of Boston, was given yesten, ‘ay afternoon on the Union grounds, Brooklyn, E. D,, t Ir opponents on this occasion being the famous A\,'@otics, of Brooklyn. The Tri-Mountains are the plom rs of the game of base ball, as played at present, in Massachusetts, and for a long time fought single ha ded against the old style or Boston game, in which tin’ ball was thrown at the runner, stakes were fastemd into the ground at the point Where the bases are now placed and the ball was thrown to the striker. Mr. Saltsman, one of the old members of the Gotham Olub of this city, is one of the prime movers of the @ri-Mountains, and to his efforts, heartily aided, however, by the other mem- bers of the club, the popplarity amd prosperity of what is known as the New York game in Massachu- setts in matnly due. The clab es to the metro- or with a ng record, aad since its advent in his locality has gained hosts of admirers by the gentlemanly demeanor of its menthers and the excellent playing of its nine. Yeaterd: they seemed to be not quite themselves, although in the main they did very weil. They had, however, @ “team” to contend ‘with which, apart from the fact frteraiy an fegardgs Miencal ening renee the individual a rel of its members, has had severe and Sucvesstal alae ing in its extended trip through the country. The ee Lapses Or the score is not owing 80 much remarkably poor pI on, the part of the atonians as to ue Kan and heavy hit- ting of the Brooklynites, Besides, the visitors were by no means as fresh as their op- ponents, and might readily be pardoned for any perce tible looseness that should occur. The time which the game was played will at once deter- mune that very little, if any, wHdness was displayed on either side, and the large crowd which attended the game Care hie pleased with the brief and beautiful exhibition they had witnessed. Franklin, Lyons and Kelly in the field (the name of the latter has strength init), Putnam as catcher, O’Brien as pitcher, and Barrows, Crosby, Sullivan and Freeman, each in his position, deserve great credit. Mills was suffering from a sore hand, and this, requiring a change in placing the nine, sent Ferguson behind, where he proved himself most valuable. The re- maining members of the nine played as they can play, which is #22 ing we enone assure all that he playing waa sirst class, Mr. Pike, as umpire, ex- hibited a marcxed improvement on previous etforts, and showed that advice given with good intention and freely taken may prove beneficial. The score of the game is as follows:: ATLANTIO. ‘TRI-MOUNTAIN. . Players. F Crosby, Ist b. Sullivan, 3a b. Barrows, 2d Freeman, 8. Franklin, lf Lyons, rf. ‘elly, ce f. O'Brien, Putnam, c. - 2 R.

The Mutuals can now select a nine that should “take” every ball they play for. If the club be not too. much managed this season it stands a good chance of “flying the whip.” The last idea is poeti- cai in the extreme, but is not original. The Empires have stated that they think they can whip any club that practises at Hoboken. Hal- lock thinks they can’t, and so he has succeeded in ar- ranging matters to prove, as he says, the faliacy of the Empires’ assertion. Saturday will tell who is right in this matter, ¢ Ross Club of Harlem has applied for admission to the State Association. The Nameless of Peekskill defeated the Union of Sing Sing on Wednesday, with a score of 38 to 24. The Olympic theatre folks having so much to do with costumers lately (getting up a “scrumptious” uniform, you know) and intending to pey for the costumes—so Neville says—are Fong to try to “beat? the men that deal in mails on Wednesday next. In other words, the Olympic theatre and the Post OMice nines will have @ game next week. Anon we will announce the place of meeting. To-day the Mountains play the Eckfords on the Union grounds; the Olympics of Paterson play the Unions at Tremont, and the Mutuals play the Irving- tons at Irvington. To-morrow—Fun at Hoboken. SUMMARY VENGEANCE UPON A NEGRO IN TERNESSEE. The Alléged Doing of the Ku Kiux Klan. {From the Nashville Banner, July 19.) A negro named Wm. Gustine brutally outraged the person of a yg about thirteen years of ‘ave, named Ezetl, on Thursday morning last, six ond Franklin, on the Carter’s creek turn- pike. ne was found in a state of insensibiiity. Soon after her reettal of the horrid deed her rela- tives started in pursuit of the fiend, but did not suc- ceed in capturing him until three o'clock Friday affernoon, near the farm of a Mr. Boyd, within six iniles of Frankiin. He was taken to that place and lodged in jail for safe keeping the same day. At the striking of the midnight bell the well known signal of the Ku Klux was sounded throughout the town as a body of horsemen, in the uniform of the klan, apparently three hundred strong, rode into the place. The corner of every street was strictly guarded by the sentinels, and no one was allowed to pas# out of their lines, A number of the klan immediately proceeded to the jail, obtained the keys from the reluctant jatlor, took out the prisoner, carried him to Douglass church, four miles and a half from Franklin, on the tty tog ad shot him twice throagh the head and left him lying dead near the roadside, The Ku Klux soon after dis- reed, but at what exact time or to what locality is not known. They were ali mounted. Gustine was found the next morning and it was discovered that the hogs had commenced eating away his face. The coroner held an inquest on the body and the jury re- turned a verdict that he came to his death by ty from a pistol in the hands of persons unknown. No disturbance whatever is said to have been created in his removal from the town, and most of the people were not aware that anything unusual had occurred until the fa ing morning. Gustine was not only shot for ravishing the person of Miss Ezeil, but also for outraging two colored girls. Threats are said to have been made by two negro grocery keepers of burning the town, but nothing of the kind las yet been attempted. FOREIGN MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS.

Per- kins became involved in # quarrel on Main street, near the canal bridge, on Tuesday evening, in regard to a boy about ten years old, both claiming the right fo keep the child in possession. Patrolman Craig, of No. 1, happened on the Spotl and took them to the station house, where it transpired that they had both married the mother. Precinct detective Ray and the patrolman named Abexeapon arrested the Na who had been residing with the last hus- band, “i W. Perkins, in the old Temperance Ho- tel block. The prisoner was placed in a cell by door- man Flynn and left for the night. About eight o'clock Mr. Flynn had occasion to go around the cells and discovered the woman hanging by the neck from the tron bar across the grate on her cell door. The doorman quickly cut her down, and although nearly strangled to death, she soon recovered. She had taken a black silk cord from her apron, fastened it to the bar above and then around her neck, standing on a water bucket as she did so. To prevent further attempts during the night the prisoner was handcuffed, Mrs. Lynch, the prisoner, who is about twenty-six years old, was taken before the Police Justice this morning to answer the chal of bigamy, in having, on the 22d of July, 1867, in this city, married Henry W. Perkins, her lawful hus- band, iomas Lynch, being then living and by whom she had one child, the boy mentioned above. Perkins was also charged with being a party to the bigamy, in having married the woman while know- ing that Hynan was living. It appeared from the evidence that the latter had left his wife four yeara ago and had failed to waiipoet her during that time. and Perkins having offered his hand she accepted him and they were married by Justice Murray on the 22d of July, 1867. The woman was fully com- mitted for trial, but for want of evidence Perkins was remanded to the station to await a further hear- ing. The boy was put in Lynch’s care, The Cheapest and Best Newspaper in the Country.
