FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. SuNDay, August 9, 1968, ‘The leading feature of business in Wall street last eek was the sharp advance in gold from 145 to 150 d its subsequent relapse to 146%, the closing trans- tions being at 147. The advance was entirely too pid to be sustained, and hence the reaction, not- (withstanding that the market is naturaliy a very firm one, owing to commerciul and political causes. Whe bulls now say that the reaction has fully spent {its force and that a quick recovery will succeed. On he ist inst. the ‘Treasury held $69,995,917 in coin, Pxclusive Of $22,414 000 in coin certificates of de- Postt. Between that time aad the close of business ‘On Friday the Sub-Treasury here received $2,504,157 for customs duties, and paid out, exclusive of the Alaska draft, $393,872 in interest on the public debt ‘and $139,050 in redemption of the loans of 1847-8, ‘The daily range of the market during the week was as ‘@ubjoined:— Highest. 145.3% 146 Money was in very abundant supply at three and Cour per cent on cail during the week, while the de- (mand from the Stock Exchange was limited, Whe “statement of the associated banks of this city for the week ending on Satur- Gay is favorable to a continuance of the pee monetary ease, the changes being as fol- lows:—An increase of $413,457 in legal tender notes, 65,611,625 in deposits, $4,281,690 in specie and $444,129 in loans, wiule the circulation shows a de- Crease of $117,069.

The rest of the specula- tive stocks sympathized less than might have been bupposed with this unexpected fall, but the work of Bupporting the market has devolved more than ever upon the cliques in cons quence of the distrust of Present prices thus occasioned. At the close of busi- Bess on Saturday the market was drooping at the following quotations:—New York Central, 120% a 130; Erie, 683 a 5834; Reading, 913, a 91%; Michigan Southern, 85% a 86; Cleveland and Pittsburg, 8814 a $53¢; Rock Island, 11154 a 111%; Northwestern, 813, @ 82; do. preferred, 8154 a 81%; Fort Wayne, 109 a 10944; Ohio and Mississippi, 2954 a 299%; Pacific Mail, a04g @ 10434; Western Union Telegraph, 3434 a 34%, The ‘market for government securities was dull Guring the week, but on the whole steady, and for the exportable bonds, firm. The purchases by the @eneral public are considerably larger than the sales, ‘but there has been of late a lack of speculative spirit mong the dealers, which, however, is likely soon to give place to a better state of feeling. Now that @il the seven-thirty notes have matured and all but eight millions of them have been elther paid off or ©onverted into five-twenty bonds, the gold bearing rfuuded debt has reached its maximum, and the tarket will consequently be no longer supplied by few bonds frem the Treasury, The effect of this may be easily foreseen when we consider that there fsa large annual increase in the home investment @emand growing out of the reinvestment of interest, nd that our securities are being constantly shipped Yo Europe. The foreign demand for these has dim- Rnished the supply in the country some hundreds of Millions during the last three years, and if Bt continues much longer at the present rate {prices cannot fail to advance beyond the highest Point they have yet touched, for the bonds could only be procured by sales by investment holders. Whe home demand is increasing not only in conse- quence of the purchases for reinvestment, but be- @ause the steadily augmenting inert capital of the country, which is notand cannot be employed in Dusiness must go chiefly into government securities. We include the accruing income of estates, trust $unds and the accumulations of private capitalists hot engaged in trade. The time will probably soon ome when this inert capital will bring a lower wate of interest, or in other words, {t will have to be Snvested in bonds at @ much higher price than they yw command. In European countries most of the pital invested in the public funds does not bear {more than three per cent interest. In view of these uses and the probable rise in the average price of jonds from year vo year, the five-twenty bonds of 863 are cheaper at 110 now than they would ave been at par two years ago, The ‘eurplus revenue receipts of the government fRinee the close of the war have hitherto been em- loyed and absorbed in retiring temporary and ma- uring obligations of the government, and mean- «fevhile the Treasury has been supplying the market ith bonds, But the funding operations having apg ‘the surplus revenue must in future be applied 10 the reduction of the public debt by the purchase Jand extinction by the government of its own secu- ities, In the discussion of the question whether the ve-twenty bonds are payable in gold or greenbacks, \many tiave assumed that if the greenback theory fras actually carried into practice all the bonds of shis clags would be at once paid off in greenbacks. moment's reflection will, however, show them Chat none of the bonds can be redeemed until the expiration of five years from the date of their issue, @uring which time and until the bonds are redeemed Qhe interest will continue to be six per cent in coin, e only issue upon which, the option of redemption as accrued to the government is that of the bonds of 862. The discussion of this question has also turned @imost entirely upon the wording of the act @nder which the bonds of 1862 were issued; whereas the bonds of 1865, 1867 and 1868 were issued under entirely diferent act. With reference to the nds of 1862, the advocates of the greenback theory leny that the repeated declarations of the successive Coscsil of the Treasury that the bonds were pay- f@ble in coin, have any binding force upon the gov- ernment or form any part of the contract between Bhe government and tts creditors; at the same time Maintaining that if such declarations should be whown to be binding the bonds would be clearly d undeniably payable in coin. In this connection language of the act of March 3, 1865, under hich the five-twentics of 1966, 1867 and 1368 were ued, is as followe:—“And the principal and in- Rerest, or both, may be made payable in coin or er lawful money; provided that the rate of terest on any such bonds or treasury jotes, when payable in coin, shall mot exceed ix per cent per annum, and whon not fable in coin shall not excecd seven and ree-tenths per cent per annum.” This act, there- re, distinctly ‘confers upon the Secretary of the jury the power to determine and declare and by determination and declaration to bind the gov- ent as to the kind of money in which the bonds fanne by him should be payable. Under this act the Breas issued Treasury notes bearing interest at je rate of seven and three-tenths in currency, con- ible into six per cent gold bonds, and also issued Phe five-twenties before enumerated. The five-twen- Giles of 1863 would be a cheap investment at the cur- Pent price, even if they were to be paid off in cur- @ency at the expiration of the five years which they Qnustrun in any event. Altnough but few believe that €here is any probability of such a payment, we will ance at the bonds as investments, even upon that is, With gold averaging 140 the difference be- ‘een six per cent in coin and currency is $2 40.100 r cent per annam, which would amount in five ars to twelve per cent; so that if an investor | pay 112 for the bonds now and be compelled accept par in currency for them at the end of five rs his investment would have paid him six per nt in currency and reimbursed his premium, But © provability is that the bonds will be allowed to in a much longer time—pocsibly for the whole nty years, The United States bonds issued to e Pac'fic ratiways are avowedly payable, principal 4 interest, in currency, and yet they are selling at and interest, The steadiness which governments ave shown during the present protracted duiness Indicative that they will advance upon the resump- jon of activity. At the close the market for them gras firm, ‘The foreign exchange market was throughout un- Pettied, owing to @ superabundant supply of bills @rawn against five-twenties by the German bankers.

Brown's prope SING SING CAMP MEETING, Interesting Services—Discourse by Rev. Wile liam M. Punshon, the Celebrated Euglis ( Orator, SING Sina, August 8, 1868, The annual camp meeting held at Sing Sing under the auspices or the Methodist Episcopal churches of New York and vicinity, an account of which ap- beared in our columns a few days ago, continues with increasing interest. There are over four hun- dred tents on the ground, and should the weather prove more favorable during -the next few days the accessions to the number on the ground will be 80 large that it will be impossible to furnish them with sleeping accommodations, The opinion is errone- ously entertained by many, even by bundveds within the pale of the Methodist denomination, that this “peculiar institution” is patronized only by the il- literate and uncultivated masses; that the frequent- ers of the camp meetiag live in a semi-barbarous way, which would be repuisive to the aristocratic and genteel habitus of fae churches and the dwelt ers in mansions with all the ‘modern tnproyements.”” Nothing could be further from the truth than such a supposition. It is a well known fact that at every Methodist camp meeting scores and hundreds of the most intellectual, reflned and influential mem- bers of the Church, who possess the o!d Methodistie “fre,” are constant attendants at the grove meeting, knowing as they do from experience that the dis- courses of the oMlcitiog ministers are, as a general thing, thoughtful and eloquent extetuporaneous etforts. The intellectual treat aforded by the preaching on these occasions is an unanswerable argument in their favor. 1 the wilely enter: tained opinion respecting the manner of living of the occupants of tuese temporary habitations is equally erroneous, Most of the tents are weil provided against rain, and some of them are as comfortably aud fitted up as any brown stone iront in the c For instance, ie writer is penning these lines in the tent of Mr. Thomas Gallagher, an eflicient member of the Board of ‘Trustees, through whose kindness he has been sheltered from a rain storm which is now pre- vailing. This tent, togetier witit that of Mr. B. H. Brown (tie Secretary of the Board), adjoming it, forms a suit of apartments thirty-two by fourteen feet. These tabernacies are not only comfortable, but luxuriously A tastefully foted up. There has been excetlent order on the ground so far, and no apprehension is entertained that the crowds which are expected to-morrow (Sunday), should the weather be propitious, will mar the quiet that pervades the grouad or interrapt the devotions of the worshippers. ‘The sermons have been prac- tical, and in the social, prayer and experience imeet- ings’an excellent spirit prevails, which is believed Will result in great good, When it was rumored on thé ground yesterday that the Rev, William Morley Punshon, the cele- brated Wesleyan orator, who has recently repre- sented the British Church at the General Conference in Chicago, was passing through New York on his way to Canada, and that he was expected to preach on the Camp ound the following day, he news spread with the rapidity of lightning. ‘The intel- ligence reached New York early in the morning, and many came =p on the noon train to see and listen to one who, it is coniessedly admitted, stands in the front rank of Re orators not only in kurope, but in the world. Mr. Punshon is a beautiful word pale, and although his name is not so well ‘nown to the general religious public in this coun- try as that of Spurgeon, he is head and shoulders luxuriow above him in originality of thought and beauty of expression. Thousands flocked to hear him in England, and it would onl require a verbat notice of an hour to fill the New York Academy of Music to its utmost extent by tie Inemvers of the Methodist persuasion who knew Mr. Punshon’s fame as an orator. He is the guest of a wealtuy citizen of New York, who accompanied him to the camp ground. They ar- riyed #t noon, and although copious showers des- cended an arrangemeut was made for him to preach in the afternoon. Fortunately the rain ceased in a measure when the introductory exercises were being conducted by the Key. J. 5. Inskip, and did not disturb the congregation uatil Mr. Panshon was about clos- ing his sermon. His text was the thirteenth andfour- the ruin of gin that man ts to be saved, and not only the sim that comes out through our eyes or our mouths or our hands, but thatis bubbling up hourly from our hearts as an unceasing spring of evil in- teat. But if we keep in mind who it is that came to earth to save us, think constantly of the glory to be sajores. in the presence of God and of an eternal salvation ag tuhabitantsof Heaven, we come nearer to be saved by the grace of the Son of Man, And how shail we escape if we neglect? He said thas every reasonable man takes into consideration the | possibility Ov probability of danger. If we read in the paper of the probability of the approach of cholera we clean our house of overy pest-breeding huisanee that may bo in it, and were ® cap- tain at sea idle and do nothing while a etorm on the far horizow is rising up’ we would be chargea- ble with gross misconduct and neglect. And if we doubt the feasibiity of future punishment or the probapliity of Gou’s wrath ovetcoming us for ovr sins, We Would say tuat the Bibie was false and God @ liar, and thus insuit the Almighty. If those who still doubt could have the experience of ministers of the Gospel, standing ip by the bedside of the dying, imploriag the mercy of God upon their souls, their ‘bearts would be moved. in conclusiom the reverend gentiemen spoke of a Jew who was lately converted to Christianity at Chicaye, and who, w! raying, had a vision of the cross with the Saviour. After sing- ing “Praise God from whom all blessings flow” and @ short prayer, the assemty was dismissed with the announcement, by the Rev. Mr. Tyng, that on next undies at the same place amd hour he would preach wan. CATTLE DISEASE. Carlonds of Diseased Costle En Route to ‘This City—A Visit to the Stock Yards of New York and Vicinity. For the last few weeks the reports have multiptied of a fatal epidemic rasing awong cattle in Hiinols and contiguous Western States. As nearly three- fourths of our supply of beef comes to us from the West and a large portion either from or through Illinois it ts a question of great moment for us to know the precise truth of the matter, Ata season when unclean streets and pestiferous garbage are breeding poisonous malaria, within hailing distance of our harbor the yellow fever or black vomit ts approaching, it is not pleasant to be told that in addition the city is threatened with an importation of diseased cattle and noxious beef. The best poliey in such matters always is to look danger brayely in the face, investigate its extent and search for and apply the proper preventive and cure in time. The habit of the ostrich is the worst of all. FIRST APPEARANCE OF THE DISTASE. For several years there was known to recur about this time of the year a fatal death rate among cattle in Kansas, Texas, the tndian Territory and in cer- tain localities in Ilinots, aud i/ was observed that it raged generally on the routes taken by the cattle ex- port from Texas. That it was some infectious or contagious disease of which the animals died was taken for granted and various names were given it, but it was generally calied Texas fever and by some murrain, To prevent the recurrence of this lague among cattle in their own State, the Legislature of Mll- noig lately passed a law in order to prevent the importation of cattle through Kansas and Missouri, as the disease was known to have been brought by that route. The Texas cat- tle dealers therefore changed the route and brought their herda by of Now Orleans to Cairo and other points on the Mississippi and Ohio rivers. Wherever these herds were landed and re- mained to rest from the journey the disease ap- peared in a short time ticreafter, so that there can hardly be any doubt that it originated in Texas and was imported from thence The firet herd of cattle from Texas was landed at Cairo on the the 23d of April last, followed by another on the 26th, consisting each of two hundred and fifty head. Soon others followed, averagii about twelve hundred per week, ‘fhe cattle were kep! in yards near the depot ground for from two to three days to recuperate, and were then shipped north- ward by the illinois Centra! Railroad, making occa- sional stoppages at different stations and part of them being tansferred to other roads for transpor- tation in different directions, At Cairo, as well as at all these other points, at Farina, Tolono, in Illinois, about the first of June, tho disease began to show itself, and it assumed a most virulent form during the last week in July. Some dairymen and cattle teenth verses of the third chapter of Phiitppians:— “Brethren, I count not myself to have appreuended, but this one thing 1 do,” &c. The discourse was not lengthy and was spurkiing with ricn evangelical sentiment and genuime poetry. At the close of the service the distinguished visitor was introduced to the ministers by Kev. Hart F. Pease, one of the presiding elders, Rev. Henry Ward Beecher has been invited to preach, and it is contidently expected that he will consent to Hoe part in the services to-morrow.

Vehicles of all descriptions were called into requisition by the coun- try people who lived within a radius of ten miles; farmers, who were busily engaged through the week, brought their wives and children; the boys took their sweethearts, and all wended their way to the tented grove to see the city folk and to participate in the services. In the afternoon the camp ground pre- sented an enlivening spectacie, and although the heavy rain of the preceding day made it uncomfort- able” to pedestrians, the sun shone brightly, and the prospect is that the weather dur- of this religious festival ing the remainder will be such as to render the services more enjoyable than they could otherwise be. ‘The expectations aroused that the Rev.

Tyng, Jr., has entered upon city missionary labors and preached an open air sermon yesterday afternoon in the large square formed by the junction of avenue A, Fast Houston, Columbia and Second streets. The locality is well selected for missionary purposes, and if anywhere ft ts in this neighborhood that a gifted orator’s voice should call forth precious fruit. The exercises commenced a little after dive o’clock P. M., the reverend gentieman using an undertaker’s wagon for a pulpit. The audl- ence surrounding him was quite large, numbering about one thousand persons, among whom there was even a Catholic priest, who appeared to listen throughout-with devoutness and piety to the hymns and sermon. And for a street gathering of that kind and for that purpose the order and decorum main- tained during the ceremonies could not be surpassed, Only once @ passenger on a street car passing up shouted out in irreverent tones, but no notice was taken of the interruption. The commencement was a short prayer, after which @ psaim and a hymn were chanted by abont a hundred persons, bot men and women, when Rev. Mr. Tyng followed with his sermon. He took for his text the first sentence of the third verse of the sec. ond chapter of Hebrews:—‘‘How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation.” He opened witha Teference to the biblical account of the seven cities in ancient Isracl, the gates of which were always open and whither he who had killed a human being by accident might flee and be saved from the ven- geance of the pursuer. This, he said, was just the picture of our Saviour, to whom all sinful mankind Tight Nee and be protected and saved from the ire of vi nee. ‘The speaker then continued the p@rabie and referred to the fact that from each of these cities committees were sent out to remove the rocks from the roads and renew the finger marks | the way to these cities of satva- ton. © clergy =are =nowadays§=in the Pince of these fa figerens 3 Showing to the World the trae and wnerr road to final salvation. He proceeded to of the boundiessness and unmeasurable extent of God’s saivation through Our Saviour, as noth! i measure it of reaca to its ead, But it ts frew raisers lost half, others two-thirds, some even the whole of their stock. MEANS OF PRECAUTION ADOPTED. At this stage great alarm was felt throughout lilinois, and particularly at the places where tne death rate was greatest. As the cause of it was ascribed to the Texas herds ing through the State, and which were unloaded for rest at the points named, steps were taken to prevent these irom couing in contact with native cattle. At Volono a vigilance committee was organized to prevent any more Lexas cattie from being unloaded at that place, The Superintendent of the llinois Ventral Railroad, in deference to the wishes of the people along the line, issued an order stopping all shipments of stock from Cairo northward. But this did not cure the evil. The native cattle continued to die by the hundred and from Tolono it extended into the a of sidney, Homer and vhilo, along the track of the ‘Texas herds, and the proprietors of these were all waited on by committees of citizens and informed that they will be made to pledge themselves to pay for lost stock. The Chicago Packers’ Association @ so took the alarm and sent out a commitjes, with Pro.essor John Gamgee, Principal of the Albert Veterinary College at London, England, at its head, to favestigaie the causes and the nature ofthe epi- demic. Tae proiessor, after passing through all the spoils most infected, made a report to the assoctation Which sent him out, If the professor be right in his opiions and conclusionsthere need be no fear of diseased — for he says that the dying cattle are “pot poisoned by @ specific virus calculated to do injury to men or animals.’’ THH NATURE OF THE DISEASE. The following extract from the above mentioned report of Professor Gamgee gives his agcount of the Tesult of his investigations ;:— In the first place the malady follows the track of Texas cat- fie and ts not ound beyond. | The sexas caitle are themselves heaithy, and we have fatied yet to seo a diseased one.

Jt is reported that eighteen car loads of diseased cattle are now at Piltsburg on thelr way to New York.

WRECK OF THE BARK HEYRY TROWBRIDGE. Additional Particulars of the Disaster—An- other Body Discovered. Hundreds of people visited the dock at the Plerre- pont stores, foot of Pierrepont street, yesterday, to view the wreck of the bark Henry Trowbridge, which was towed to the city on Saturday, and on which the bodies of three of the seamen were found. When the vessel was brought into the dock she was full of water, but when the forecastle was partially pumped out the bodies of the seamen were discovered. On making @ closer examination of the forecastle yea- terday morning the body of another seaman was found in one of the bunks. This is the fourth body which has been recovered. ‘The wreck presents a very distressing appearance, everything indicating that she must have passed through a most terrific gale; for her foremast was snapped off about five feet above the deck and everything movable seemed to have been washed overboard, There are some circumstances which lead to the supposition that Captain Hotch- kiss must have made an attempt to save himself and family by leaving the wreck, for nothing could be found of their bodies, and the small boat, chart, compass and all the drinking water were gone. Ina sea like that which. must have swamped the bark a smail boat would have very little chance, and the tain with his wife and children are un- re ee it has nm ascertained that when the Trowbridge left this port she had an assorted cargo, consisting of staves, ifty horses, forty sheep and twenty-four muies, ‘These were consigned for a company at Barbados, whither the vessei was bound. jhe was: owned by H. Trowbridge & Sons, of New Haven. The following is a list of the oMcers and crew:— F. Hotchkiss, of New Haven, captain; Oscar Hoft- man, New York, frat oificer; Samuel Johnson, New York, second oficer; Kobert J. Taylor (cot ). New in; ‘York, steward and cook; Henry McLaine, Ne York, seaman; Frank McKenzie, New York, set Henry Girvin, New York, seaman; John McKenzie, New York, seaman; Peter Smith, New York, seaman; John Hoyle, New York, seaman, ‘There were many speculations indulged in by toose who visited the wreck yesterday in regard to the fate of the captain and his family and the two missing seamen, but nearly all were of the opinion that they were lost. The most plausible theory in r to the is that she was struck by a sudden and ter- rifle gale, which had the effect of displacing the cargo ‘and washin, ee ete ene g the horses, sheep and mules. At this time, no doubt, is two officers and three of the sea- tain, men re on deck, and finding that she was swamped and would sink in afew moments they must have taken immediate steps to desert . of the seamen must have gone down into the forecastle to rouse out the watch below, and just at this time, from the appearance of things, she Milled with water and the unfortunate men lost were drowned. ‘The bodies when dis- covered were very much decomposed, and the stench arising from the forecastie was almost unen- durabie, The bodics were taken out and removed to the deaa house in Willoughby street, by direction of Coroner Fiavin, A jury was empaneiled and an inquest will be held to-day.
