FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. SATURDAY, August 15—6 P, M. The attack which was made upon the gold market yesterday by parties who are now known to have been largely “short”? of stocks, and whose object in “bearing” gold was to affect railway shares sympa- thetically, was continued this morning, and the price was forced down to 1463, This proved to be “hardpan,” however, and during the day the fluctua- tons were between this point and 146%, the closing transactions prior to the adjournment of the board at three P, M. having been at 146%, following which the market remained very firm at 146% a 147, the latest quotation on the street being 1467; a 147. There was a moderate bor- vowing demand for coin, and loans were made at rates varying from two and a half to four per cent per annum for carrying. The gross clearings ‘amounted to $86,263,000, the gold balances to $2,273,043 and the currency balances to $4,167,362. ‘The “short” interést outstanding is very large, and this will stimulate the upward tendency of the pre- mium. That the political agitation attending the Pre- sidentlal election will operate to advance the price of gold ts obvious, and in addition to this disturbing cause we have to deal with the reduced supply of gold an the Treasury and the country at large, and the large preponderance of our foreign imports over our ex- ports. The shipments of specie from the port during the week have been lighter than usual of late, the total being $653,495, of which the following are the details: Holsatia, Hamburg— Stiver bars....

Lowest. 1404 145% 146% rr 140% ee 148%) Now that the gold placers of California are to a great extent worked out, attention is being directed to the further development of our mineral resources by new scientific methods, Instead of surface min- ing, deep sinking is to be the order of the day in the future. The mineral lodes, it is contended, extend thousands of feet below the surface, and the only effectual and ‘economical way of working these is by tupnelling—a method which has not yet been brought into practice, but which was projected some time since in the case of the Sutro tunnel intended to work the Comstock ‘lode, in Ne- vada. This valuabie enterprise has already been favorably reported upon by the Committee on Mines and Mining of the House of Representatives, to whom was referred a memorial of the Nevada Legis- Jature asking aid in the construction of the tunnel in question. In Europe and South America drain tunnels at great deptus have proved the continuity Monday downward of mineral odes, and when capitalists are once satisfied that this is the case im this country there will be money enough forthcoming to construct a system of tunnels, and thus we shall enter upon a new era in gold mining. At present, however, capitai is limited, and the question arises, is it not the duty of the government to step in and assist in the inau- guration of tunnel mining by adopting the recom- mendations of the committee referred to? The na- tional importance of developing the vast mineral treasures buried deep in the earth is manifest, and the falling off in the gold product of California makes the subject one which should attract the attention of Congress. The days of the pan, the rocker and the sluice in gold mining have gone by, for the surface deposits have been very largely gleaned, and science is now called upon to do the work at depths greater thin any yet reached by ordinary shaft- sinking. Without these drain tunnels the gold mining interests of the country bid fair to gradually decay, from the exhaus'ion of the surface supply of metal, but with them permanence would be given to mining and the miner’s Itfe, and towns would take the place of groups of shanties, which last would be superseded by substantial butidings, while railways ‘would fellow wagon trains and taxable property would accumulate in all the mining settlements. At the same time the way towards a resumption of specie payments would be gradually paved and the ‘wealth of the country, exhausted by the war, would be replenished by an increased yield of the precious metals. Money was extremely easy to borrowers on satis- factory collaterals at four per cent, with exceptional transactions at three and five per cent, but the re- cent failure of Isett, Kerr & Co., brokers and bank- ers with Western connections, and the heavy de- cline in Erie, have made lenders careful about the standing of borrowers and the character of securi- ties, a3 well as the extent of margins. The -state- meént of the associated banks of this city for the week ending to-day reflects the recent shipments of currency to the West. The deposits have decreased $5,155,406, the legal tender notes $1,116,067, the loans $1,947,166, and the specie $1,830,577, while the circu- lation has increased $39,713, The totals of the last two statements are as sudjoined:— August 8.

Do all preach the Gospei? When he and his friends preach baptismal regeneration ana all the system of Sac wets and in the same city ortown another denounces such teachings as heresy, as anti-Christian and ruinously delusive to the souls of men, can he or they persuade themselves and the people that voth preach the Gospel? Can it be that two diametrically opposite, contradictory and mutually destructive teachings can be deduced from the Book of God, and both be according to the mind of Christ? “How can two walk together except they are agreed?’ The great parties in our Church cannot work together, nor trust each other, because they are not working for the same ends.

The successof the Eckfords on Friday, in winning atrophy fromthe Mutuals, lent additional interest to the contestof yesterday, when the Eckfords met the unfortunjte but plucky Olympics, of Washing. ton, The gd spirits for the fall or rise of which the victory o/ Friday had caused had not quite sub- sided in the fckford players, and consequently they were somewhat “loose” in yesterday's game, ai- though the fcore, as given below, will show that they were wry careful of the result. The contest might be justly styled a pretty fair one, but not al- together fist class, The crowd in attendance was not exceedingly large, and very many were disap- ointed ingsmuch as it was Generally thought the rooklynites would defeat the Washingtonians by at least twotoone.

THe PENNSLVANIA COAL MINEKS.—The miners of the SchuylMll and Lehigh coal regions are com- plaining that they have received no assistance in their strike fron the operatives of the Wyoming dis- trict. The Wikesbarre newspapers state that along the Susqueham the coal workera have gone to work, and the strike is ended for the present, and that if the mm who are at Scranton can stop the companies there, the contest may be renewe.. At Scranton the miners of the Lackawanna region were solicitedto co-operate with those of the Schuyl- Kill region in advocating the eight hour movement, as a mecting called for this purpose. Resolutions were f ona committees appointed to urge the adoption of tne eight hour system, As, how- ever these mners work by contract, and not by the day, they decided to take part in the eight hour movement by asking an advance of twenty cent gn the present prices for mining coal. This, it is calculated, 14 eqaivalent to ten hours for it hours’ work. Another account states that the rs have not struck in the Wyoming region, nor have w: been advat They are at work at old rates nd for ten hens. In the Schuylkill region, the Shamokin Heraid states that neariy all the col- Heries on the line @f the Keading road and branches are still idle. On August 4 the Excelsior coll started up under the old system, but was visited an in the aftemoon by @ committee man from Girardsvilie, Who demanded that the fires be drawn and warned the mam to quit work. The demand was not compiled with, but the men feared to disregard his threats and discontinued work, On August 5 one colliery comménced work with an advance of ten cents a Wagon jo miners and $1 @ week to labor- ers.
