FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. SaTuRpAyY, April 10—C P.M. ‘The fact that gold is a very scarce commodity in this clty was demonstrated in a very striking man- ner to-day by the transactions of the gold market. A prominent firm, pasing their action upon the ex- pected large payments of gold interest from the ‘Treasury during the period to the 1st of May, went “shorv’ of it, as the expression in Wall street is, and fokt quite extensively, A rival house who were “long” of gold, or supposed to be so, at figures one or (wo per cent higher than the market has ranged for a lew Gays past, organized a clique in opposition to tus bear’? movement, and made a decided raid U}oa cash gold, which they have been iockting up to further their scheme, Their efforts in pursuance of ths object led to a rather curious complication of filets to-day. After the usual clearances of the Gold Bank they were entitled to about $1,300,000 in Gold, for which they received certified checks of the Bank of New York, On presenting these one Miilion was paid, but the bank refusea to pay the remainder, alleging that it did not have the coin, ‘The checks were about to go to protest, when some settlement was arranged, but the terms are alifer- entiy stated, Some assert that the bank had the Go. in doubie eagles, which it did not wish to part With, as they command a smail premium as com- Pied with other pieces, Others say that when the notary appeared at the bank te formally protest the checks payment was made, the bank in the interval having cailed tn its loans of specie. Stik another report is to the effect that the holders of the checks.were induced to lend the bank the de- ficii. As some feeling was manifested Loward the Gold Exchange Bank its president, Mr. Beneaict, appeared in the Gold Room and made a speéch to the members, declaring that his msutution had not Shown favoritism to any of its customers, and that its transactions had been perfectiy reguiar. The secret of the difficulty lies in the fact that the holders of the checks upon the Bank of New York presented them this afternoon tastead Of waiting until the following business morning, Which in this case would have been Monday. The ‘whoie affair is aptly illustrative of the evils attend- ant upon gold speculation. In this instance it brought two great rival interests in antagonism, to the injury and loss of merchants and others having ®& legitimate interest in the gold market, The bearcity of gold made by this withdrawal for spec- ulative purposes caused & demand which was satis- fied only at extortionate lending rates. The needs of borrowers compelled them to pay all the inter- Vening fractions from 3-32 to 1-2 of one per cent per Gay for the use of gold during the two days to Monday at half-past twelve o’clock. In the excitement attendant upon the discovery that the Bank of New York had refused to meet its gold checks the price was suddenly run up to 133%, the highest it has attained siuce the middie of Feb- Tuary. The “bull”? movement which caused this ad- ‘Vance received strength from those who are anxious to sell before the expected disbursement of Treasury gold causes a decline. The proposition to anticipate the May interest has not worked very satisfactorily, Bo far as easing the market 13 concerned, the total coupons cashed thus far amounting to about $550,000, the rebate on which did not exceed $1,500. ‘The range in the price to day was as follows:— 10 A.M. ‘12:16 P. aP.M. . % The operations of the Gold Exchange Bank to-day ‘Were as iolluws:— Gross clearances. Goid balances.... + 8,307,322 Currency balanee: seeee 2,213,708 Foreign exchange was dull after the steamer, but the market was additionally heavy on account of the high jending rates 1@ gold, and prime bankers? Fixty days sterling bills were purchasabie at 107%. No transfers by cabie were reported. The weekly statement of the associated banks 1s quite differveatly regarded in the street. By soime it is thought favorable, as the large decrease In the line 1 loans betrays a more conservative tendency on the part of the banks, but probably the Washington story that the Comptroiler of the Currency wiil call for the statement for Monday next 1s the secret of the contracnon. The decrease in specie is not as large at (he customs payments. There 1s therefore a galu irom some source, while the merease in legal tendeis shows the beginniog of a retura of curreucy this way from the country, Ita effect was not un- favorable upon the stock market. The following re Lie list two stavements:— $107,958,000 Loan 5) € Depost Loyal tenders, 174.490, 080 45, 044, 702 $4,459,449 1,944,350 ‘The total in excess of the legal reserve is $5,913,040— & loss during the week of nearly $300,000, ‘The moaey market to-day was active but Irregular Ms to the rates paid on call,which ranged from seven per cent coin to seven per ceat currency, plus com- missions Of 1-16and 1-3, Commercial paper was Without change as to the volume of business, and Tates ranged from tea to twelve per coat for prime doub'e name acceptances, Government bonds were firm and steady for the domestic issues and higher for the 62’a, which sold at 12034, the highest they have ever attained. ‘The price came lower from London, 83%, but the effect of this decline was counveracted by the higher price of gold, while the real scarcity of 62's on this side of the Aliantic causes them to move somewhat inde- pendentiy of the usual influences affecting the market.

The Street ferries, and one through 125th street: and last, but not least, the Broadway Surface Koad 1s beg pushed with great energy. Bet few ever ex- pect to see this road built, but if a charter 18 once granted it will take millions to buy the coumpany off, ‘The new cars for loval travel on the Hudson Kiver Rajiroad have commenced running between Yoakers and New York, making three round trips dutty. ‘These cars are lighter than those used in whe sponge trains, and have seats arranged along (he sides as in the city cars, They are fmshed maide and out ina Manner not excelled by any but the elegant cars lately built for the through express traius.

It is hoped to add the Elevated Raiiroad to our travelling facth- ties by the Ist of July. Everything 1s now bemg rapidly pashed forward towards completion, aud before the summer is over suburban residents, it is can go from their offices in thts city to in Jess thaa an hour and to Tarrytown in an hour and a quarter, The officers of the Newark and New York Rail- work has been delayed because the company could not obtain jon of property mn Newark until the Ist of Aprii—the annual moviag day in that city. Mapy large frame bu'ldings have recently been moved through the streets of Newark to make way for the road, ‘The track runs On abutments tarough the Cily, crossing the sireets On bridges, ‘The road 1s nearly a straight line from Communt- paw to Newark, and itis expected that trains will run much quicker than on the New Jersey Railroad. The depot, which wil be on Proad street, between Fair and Mechanic, will be uch more central than either of those on the other road, The recent changes on the New Je! Railroad, by which cou- pons are used, will also tend to give the new line a monopoly oi the local travel, The increased facill- ties Lurnished by the new road will no doubt do much to increase the population of Newark. Mr. 2. W. Southard sold on ‘tuesday, at public auction, the buildings upon the Quinby property in Broad, near Pair street, which are to be removed by Une 241 Instant, to make room for the station build- ings of the Newark and New York Ratroad. The property brought some $4,000 and $5,000, aud we presume an editice, which will be an ornament to the etty, will soon arise from tie ruins, Tt is seldom that a railroad company is adie to secure so central a position in a large city, Whien wul give 1 a cou- siderable advantage in the competition for the New York travel to our down town residents.
