FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. pay, July it, 1809. ‘Yhe problem of the money market, which so exer+ cised speculative and commercial circles alike 4ur- Re ihe pusé few weeks, Tecelyed a satisfactory soin- tion before the close vf Pusluess on S24; Gay might. Wall street wound up the week with @ feeling of retier ai the change which was brought about in the raie of interest, and went home witha more con- tented mind than has been the custom for a good while. At the opesing on Tuesday morning (Mon- ‘ivy being celebrated as the Fourth of July holiday there was a great deal of appretiensive curtosity to fathous the extent of the clique movements to keep the nwrket stringent, for i was thought that, in obedience to the general law operative at this sea~ son in rendering currency so abundant at Nesy York, it woutd require a desperate and determined effort to preserve its activity, The first signs were not of an encouraging character. Despite the utter ab- sence of any outside demand, and notwithstand- ing that the dram for the wool crop, forthe rem- want of the gra crop. ana to the watering pinces had all pussed by, the opening rate on call loans raged from an eighth to a quarter per cent per da, cyuivalent to 45 a 90 per cent per annum. Even tue money which had come out of the Sub-Treasury 12 payment of the purchases of bonds made the previous week falled to give relief, and the suspicion was generally entertained that 16 haa found its way into the possession of the cliques ‘who were’ operating upon the market. This state of amfairs prevailed with little abatement of aggrava- tion until Wedoes: ay afternoon, when, upon the an- nouncement that ‘uv Secrejary of the Treasury would purchase ()\/ve additional millions of bonds, there was asudica reiaxation to the legal rate—a anovewent asails «i by tue inanguration of steps for the prosecution o: tose exacting more than the timit of interest sci by law. it may seem curious that the efforts 0. « Gombimation of speculators could be #0 successful in Lightening up money by the sim- ple withdrawal vv iucxing up of the money constl- tuling their ca; iui or wivain their control, the amount so at theic aisyosal being but a fraction of the vast quantity of money to be found in the me- tropolis. The secret o: their success lies in the ex- aiuple which they set all who have money to lend. it is human nuiure, of course, to desire to obtain the greatest raie vi interest possible, These specu- lalors by withhy diag their own money and bidding a high premiuu ive whet is in the possession of others make an active demand in the first place; then, in the competition fur funds to make sure of awetiling bank accounts every evening, each stock broker being parucuiar in return for the accommoda- tion which lis buns gives him to leave a good balance, there is « progression in the figure until the borrowers are compened to pay exorbitant rates, 11 ts a sort of inductive process like that in electrical expermments, Where one large magnet will Induce maguetism in all adjaceat pieces of metal. Let the magnet be removed, however, an the scattered pieces lose their mazgaetism, The relaxation in the money market in the latter part of the week was alue ma great measure to the efforts of the District Attotney in layiug beiore the Grand Jury materials for their investigaiion in the question of the infrac- tion of the usury laws, The “ring” of money lend- eré thus lost cohesion and power. Ou the last day of the week the relaxation was most noticeable, and the better supply of funds showed that money had been released to the market through @ desire to compete for the two days’ mterest to Mon- day, but lenders were in dread of indulging in trans- actions at extra legal rates, The highest fyure paid ‘was gold interest, At three o’clock the lenders at six per cent found no takers, and large sums were carried over unemployed. In the earlier part of the day a slight difference was niude between the “‘cash’’, and “regular” quotations of the high priced shares, and an eighth was had for turning them. Much of this easier feeling 18 also to be attributed to a fore- knowiedge of the facts of the bank statement, which ia a very favorable one, the increase in specie ‘eing close upon seven millions and the increase in legal tenders nearly two millions. These gains are due to the disbursements of the July coin interest and to purchases of bonds, The increase in deposits is only three and @ quarter millions, which 1s some- what suspiciously regarded. The contraction of Joane to the extent of nearly three millions goes to account for @ part of the discrepancy, but as the do- mestic exchanges are in favor of New York there 18 no reason for the difference, unless money 1s still locked up by the cliques, The totals of the last two atusements are contrasted as follows :— July 3. July 10. Loans $258,68,471 a 28,620, 267 Legal tenders. 48,702,728 ‘The changes are as follows:— - $2,943,520 6,743,645 + 8,267,722 » 1,965,465 ‘The total amount of reserve hela by tue banks in excess of the twenty-five per cent required by law ls $24,600,844—a ga.n during the week of $7,830,174. ‘The effoct of tis return of ease to the general mouey market had not been fully felt in commercial paper, for which there was @ better inquiry at the previous bigh rates. Makers were not inclined to pay former figures, and were offering at an abate- meat of one to two per cent. Shoatd the drift of the rate on call be to lower than six and seven per cent Jt ts doubtiul woetner buyers and makers will agree, especially in four months’ paper, the expiration of which i beyond the period of fall activity, ‘when money would again be worth extreme rates, lenders nursing the hope that the pre- seat trouble about usury will blow over and leave them to exact such rates as they may. ‘Their anticipations of such a result to the pro- ceedings had before the Grand Jury are not justified by the facts, for indictments have been found in @ number of alleged cases, and will ve kept in ferrorem over the transgressors of the law if not pressed to trialnow. Therate for the best double name ac- ceptances was from ten to twelve per cent, with nothing doing below the latter figure. Bankers’ paper was to be had at nine per cent, and preference ia given to it astne time, sixty days, just covers the ordiuary summer period of easiest money. Government bonds were unfavorably affected early in the week by the continued stringency in money, bus the market, after some hesitation, was strength- ened by the government purchases and prices ad- vanced a clear two per cent, contrasting the final sales of Saturday with those at the close of the pre- vious week. The remark applies more particularly to the domestic bonds. The 62's remained steady and strong with tne London, quotation, but the high price at which they are held keeps them out of the government purchases, The only bonds of this date bought on Thursday were registered. ‘The closing prices on Saturday were as follows:—United States wixes, 1881, registered, 117% a 11834; do. do., coupon, 118g @ 11834; do. 6-20's, registered, 1184 a 119; alo, do,, coupon, 1862, 121% a 1224; do. do., coupon, 1864, 119 @ 119%; do. dO, conpon, 1865, 119% a 119%; do, do,, coupon, new, 1665, 1175 a 117%; do. do,, coupon, 1867, 117% @ 118; do. do, coupon, 1868, 117% @ 117%; do, ten-forties, registered, 10814 @ 10844; do. do., coupon, 108% a 109; currency bonds, 106% & 10634. ‘hore was at one time a panicky feeling in gold, which, under the Treasury disbursements in pay- meat of the July interest and the heavy carry- ing rates, deoiined to 134, thé fall inducing a heavy short interest. The nataral reaction from this de- citne was alded by free purchases of foreign ex- change, which was in turn advanced to the specie shipptug point, the market closing firm at the reaction through expectations of @ demand for shipments during the rest of the summer, The gold market also presents an interesting problem. in the uncer- tainty asto tho extent of the exportations of our bonds during the earlier part. of the yoar thero ts much curiosity to ascertain the extent of the necessity for gold shipments. Those who take tnto account the apecte production of the Western mines, amount- Ing to about $70,000,000 the past year, are confident (hat the dratn of gold to foreign countries, whether Jarge or insignificant, is suMicient to supply the market and leave @ surplus suMcient to occasion » yielding In the premium. Hence they have ‘gone ahort” of the present prices and added new interest to the speculative movement in gold. ‘The range of ‘the price during the week is shown in the table:— Highest, Lowest, ‘Tuesday... wednesday | Thursaay Friday... Saturday Foreign exchange advanced to 110 (or prime bank- tra’ sixty day and 110% tor sight sterling bilis,~ closing firm but tnactive, The Southern lst Ws demoralized by a farther “break” in new North Carolinas, whicn fell to 43%, and new Tennésséecs, which again sold down to 65. | The specutation for a rise in this class of securities seems to have culminated for the summer, and hold- ers on margins are mclined to transfer their choice elsewhere or to wititdraw entirely from the market, ‘Those who hold for investment, on the other hand, fre satisfied that, with the general application to the Whole South of the pacific and reconstructionary principles which prevailed at the Virginia election, they will be well remunerated. ‘Yhe stock market in the main was strong, but showed signs of relapsing into the quiet and stagna- tion of midsummer. Prices were subjected to a decline on Tuesday and Wednesday, but rapidly recovered their previous position on Thursday, when the money market relaxed to the legal rate of interest. ‘Tho market then became curiously dull, its failure to an- swer the ease In money greatly puzaling the street. Itcame out of ita hesitation atter the bank statement on Saturday, and prices rather sharply advanced on small transactions in the final bustness in the Long Room and on the street in front of the Stock Ex- change. 'The features in this spasmodic activity were New York Central, which touched 196%, and Michigan Southern, which rose to 106, ex dividend of four per cent, Erie fell to 27%, owing probably to the acct- dent yesterday. New Jersey Central was active, and rose to 1024 bid before the close of business. Hudson River touched 166. The Northwestern stocks were strong and advanced. Pacific Mail was heavy and at one time declined to 88}. In the ex- press stocks Wells-Fargo, which had sold down as Jow as 22 on Friday, reacted to 25, but tell off again.

Determined Attempt te Kill a Policeman— One of tho Offenders Arrested—A Man Stab- bed in the Sixteenth Ward—An Officer Mob- bed. At half-past twelve yesterday morning, while leisurely patroling his post officer Patrick Higgins, of the Sixteenth precinct, observed four men ap parently asleep in the doorway of house 419 or 421 West Sixteenth street. He approached them for the purpose of awakening them when they suddenly sprang from their iair upon him, one of the party, said to be Edward Lannon, crying out, “Now we have got the —— ——, let's give it to him.” The roughs at once made a simultaneous and determinea assault upon him with clubs, Knocked him down some half a dozen times, took his club (with which he defended himseif bravely for some time) from him. After he was powerless from the viowa that had been dealt him and while lying prostrate upon the sidewalk they continued the cluboing antil they had inflicted ten or twelve ugly gashes in his head, His cries brought to his assistance officers Campbell and Seaman, of his pre- cinct, on whose appearance the would-be assassins fled, with the exception of Lannon, who was en- gaged in a desperate attempt to free: himself from the grasp of the wounded officer. The wounds of the officer, while severe are not considered dangerous, as the skull does not appear to be fractured. Many of the wounds are so deep that the scalp can be laid back, exposing places as asa Ofty cent stamp. He was attended by lees me van Buren and Jones at his Tesidenve, is intent of tne par- officer it may be stated that after daylight two broken chair legs, covered with blood, were found, which had evidently been used by the scoundrels. No cause can be given for their enmity towards Higgins. Lannon, the police say, had been recently di from the Trenton (N. J.) State Prison, where he had served @ three years orm. He was taken before Justice Dodge at the inability ol theceoen ts appar was remanded was rem: pe og epee one o! lay morning, while Mr. Robert Ross, of No. 250 West Twenty vecont street, was standing, in conversation with @ friend, cor- ner of Eighth avenue and Twenty-sixth street, he waa set a by @ of row. dies, one of wenn Statped” ayn in the left side over the inflicting @ severe but not dangerous wound. He was attended by a surgeon and proceeded home, No arrest was made. as Mr. Ross was unable to tell who inflicted the injury. The Nineteenth inet that at pane twelve o'clock on day night oficer Hamilton of that precinct arrested one at Hamilton Park, for assault and robbery committed upon a visitor, when he was set upon by a crowd of roughs who rescued his een, ‘and struck him on the head with atonos. Officer Irwin, Who came to hia assist ance, was also injured by @ stone thrown by some bervon in the orowd, |. houses. Some of the worst THE PUBLIC HEALTH. Condition of Board—The Wards, We are in the midst of the bot season. The scorching rays of the July sun burn upon us with strong power, penetrating with their heat every nook and corner of our dwellings and streets. It is unnecessary to enter into a disquisition of the phy- sical effect heat produces upon the material compo- aition of organic substances. It is sdMclent to know, as every child does, that to expose such sub- siances to the sun and the permeating influences of @ heated atmosphere resulta in fermentation, putre- faction, foulness and miasma. For this very reasoa it has been tie great abject of the authorities in all cities to enjoin upon the inhabitants cleanliness and to provide such appliances as would assist them in keeping clean. Foremost among these appliancea are pure air, proper ventiiation of dwellings and an emcient system of sewerage. It were leading too far for present purposes to speak at lengia upon the two tatter means 90 neces sary for the heaith of acity. As to ventilation, the tenement liouse acts of late Legislatures have made the most available provisions, requiring transom windows, ventilators on the roof and the like, and the Board of Health have shown some commendable activity In enforcing them. The system of sewerage of the city is not under their control, but is placed in charge ot the Croton Aqueduct Board, and for the many evident defects of it the Health Board cannot be made directly answerable; but indirectly they are, for tt is to them that the people look for the mtro- duction of measures to preserve the health of the in- habitants, and whatever affects it injuriously they should move to have abated or amended. But for purifying tne atmosphere of the city the Board of Health are immediately responsible, Pure air, like pure water aud wholesome food, is one of the necessaries of life, without which man cannot exist in healthful conduion, The more a city be- comes crowded the more it is the duty of those en- trusted with the execution of health laws to be watchful and attentive to their duties, And it is especially in localities where thousanda upoa thou- sands of the poorer classes are crowded together in tenements that the activity of the heaith officers should be greatest. In the broad avenues and streets med with the stately mansions of whe wealthy and fashionable the people located there have themselves provided ali the means vo keep the neighborhood frean and clean and to remove every source of offensiveness, But where hundreds of families are crowded together in the narrow precincts of single blocks, occupying Moor upon Moor of the same row of buildings, packed together by tne dozen in a few small rooms—these peopie have neituer the means nor the opportunity, and sometimes not even tne inclination to comply with all the requirements of hygiente rules, and it is here where the duty of the heaith authorities most imperatively calls for in- terference, not only for the protection of these peo- ple themselves, but of the whole ctty. For from here the miasma generated by the negligence or carelessness of the poor may spread and commum- cate to all parts, poisoning the air inuaied by the whole city. With tais object in view, and for the purpose of showing how little ws being done by the Health Board and how, it may even be said, criminally negti- gent the Board has been in this respect, the HEKALD Itom time to time pomled out very pest holes that abound in various paris oi tue city. But the other day short reference was made to the condition of the streets in the Fourth aad Sixth wards, where & street sweeper’s broom is but rarcly seen and gar- bage carts but seldom make their appearance. IN THE ELEVENTH WARD. It is now proposed to take a review of the appear- ance of some of the streets of the Eleventh ward, ‘This ward lies east of avenue B, extending to the East river, and bounded south by Kivington and north by Fourteenth street. In territorial extent it 18 smaller than many oi the other wards, but in point of popu- lation it stands the third highest on the list, hav- inhabitants, and being outranked only by the Seventeenth ward, with 123,905 souls, and the Twentieth, with 82,921. Of these 72,737 per- sous living in the Eleventh ward, fully 65,000 ‘‘re- side,”—though the word ts somewhat inappropriate, and it should be sald, are packed—in tenement in the ward are found tn the narrow, sbort streets east of Clinton and between Ri ‘and Houston streets, such as Attorney, Ridge, Pitt, Willett, Sheriff, Columbia, Cannon, Lewis, Goorck streets, &c. Here the centre of nearly every block is again closely built up witn rows upon rows of two aud three story tenements, leav- ing put a small passage way between the front and build and a narrow and oiten dark lane for access from the street. Such have been found by the HERALD commissioner on nearly all the streets named between Rivington and Stanton, and also between Stanton aud Houston streets. One on Pitt poosg Ben Stanton, and three on Goerck street, near Houston, were entered and examined, and as they are all nearty alike and in the same condition, a short dessription of them will give a correct iuea of what breeding places of disease they allare. Tue way mentioned between the front and rear tenements is paved with boulders and cobblestones; the surface is uneven and fui! of deep ruts and holes. Here the ga the vegetable and animal offal trom the many kitchens GRE och ge thrown out, and the slop buckets wash tuos emptied, ‘the gutter which runs through tls passage- way and out through the alley or lane to the street does not carry one tenth of the matter The more solid substances stick to the boulders, are deposiied in the rats and holes and there become decomposed. The fuids also remain and become stagnant and emit an odor the reverse of pleasant. A heavy, drenching shower is & very godsend to these lonalities, for it washes a deal of the sickening filth away, except what *Grarnoon, the sireet gunere are Curned Inco day afternoon, the % gu are turned into rushing creeks and rivulets, filled with biack, ae offensive fluid, bearing away the sickening ment of all these courtyards and alleys. All the other streets and avenues of this ward north of Houston street are more or leas in a flituy condition. A few mstances will sufice to indicate the character as to cleanliness of this entire locality. On East Sixth street, near avenue C, a livery atuble uses the sidewalk in front as a suitable place for the storage of manure. On this entire block heaps of garbage can be seen in a state of decompo- sition, and the gutters are black with stagnant mud. ‘The same is the case on avenue CU, between venth streets. Here a double laid in a toro up and piled near the gutter, obstructing the flow, and all the offul, siops and other solid and fluid sub- stances are thrown out by the tenantg and left on the street to rot in the sun. Tweifth street, between avenues B and C, is literal iy dotted from line to tine with heaps of garbage and other filth, and the gut- tera present the same abominable appearance. ‘Thirteenth street, between the same avenues, is no better, but, if sayening, it is still worse. In front of No, 205 avenue B, the ground floor of whico ts occu- pied as a grocery store, the sidewa'k, the gutter and the sireet to its centre is covered with rotten cab- bage leaves, peapods and other and pools of stagnant, thick and black water, if it be that. This ts the case in front of every green grocer's establish- ment io this ward and elsewhere. They use the sidewalks for store purposes, pile up their cavbage, and other vegetables, keep them wet by sprink- Ting, from which tbe street is continually covered © Streete—Hints to the Health Kleventa and Seventeenth with pools of water, and then they throw the refuse greens, foul leaves, &c., into it, and them ‘to rot under the tofluence of tw sun. ‘fnirveenth street, near avenue ©, a distillery establisbment has reared in front of it and almost in the middle of the street a large hii of old rusty iron, which forms a sort of framework for a muck . Near to this @ dead cat lies unburied, no one knows for how long; and on the sane street, jast east of avenue B, @ stable uses the sidewalk and the street to deposit manure. Of the gutters the same may be said in nearly all the streets. Should there not something be done to remedy thisevil? Why does not the Health Board move ip the matter? IN THE SEVANTERSTH WARD. In this ward 16 is @ little, tueugh not much better. Bleventh street, bevween First aud Second avenues, for instance, is in & wretched condition—a perfect hotbed of noisome smells. On passing through one teels as if # bottle filled with asaf@tida had just been uncorked under his nose. Sixth street, between the same avenues. ts also in bad condition, though not as offensive ag tho other, In front of @ grocery store, No. 93 First avenue, the gutter and street present the same appearance ssthat complained of m the Eleventh ward, heaps of wilted snd roti cabbage leaves and other staff being thrown out ex Forsyth to the sun, \dridge street and other Ing streets, scutn of Houston, are also very ve, ally Forsyth, where slaughter houses used to be. are ‘as those in the Eleventh ward, filled with garbage and offal. One uliar circumstance was espe- nally noticed. along the avenues and streets im shis Ward small heaps of dried black mud could be seen at I intervals. They were bung driven over and through by vehicles, and the filtl was being rapidly out ia and carried over the whole width of the street. It seems that under the street cleaning coutract with the city, the contractor 18 bound Lo sweep these strects at least once a week. He did send his sweepers there one aay last week and had the following streets swept from the Bowery to avenue B;—Houston, First, Second, Third, rth, Fifth and Stath. This ac- counts for the dirt heape at reguiar intervals. But while s' the etreets, he fuled tosend carw to haul the away, and what the snower of iy Se did not accompiiih, passing wagons pi ea A might well have not en pa al ght just as it have 6 police of the precinct are of the opinton that it ia impossible to have clean streets among a venement 126,000 tonis, by sweep- ig them only once a week, aud then even but very inemclently.

LIBERA. Lecture by ex-President Roberts, of the Libe- rian Republic, ou the Condition and History of thnt Country. The Hon. Joseph J. Roberts, President of Liberia College, and for eight years President of the Libertan republic, delivered a lecture in the Tabernacle, at Jersey City, last evening, on the lustory, condition and religious prospects of Liberia. Among other things he stated that within four years 2,234 mission- aries were sent out by the American Colonization Society to Liberia, The receipts of that society in twenty years were $22,000. The first ship load of fifty emigrants landed in 1822, These were subjected to great annoyance by the slavetraders who formed an alliance with the natives against them, which alii ance eventually resulted in the éxpuision of the colonists. They were soon aiterwards readmitted through the intervention of one of the territorial rulers, Of the extent of Liberia it ts sufficient to state that “it embraces 600 miles of coast line and extends into the iuserior to @ distance beyond any Pl yet rp The popuiation at present is 000, io less than 10,000 slaves were an- out from this territory; mn, there is not one, He as serted, without fear of contradiction, that the colony of Liberia has done more to sappress the. slave trade than all the squadrons of England. The country is divided into tour provinces, the largest city having @ population of 6,000, ‘There are forty- eight places of worship and. a college, which ts doing @ vast amount of good. The poor negro is here instructed in the arts and sciences, and pre- pared to contest for the great prizes of life on an equality with any other race. Ao incident occurred one day which showed what a singular idea some of those bs Pog have about the causes which led to their ial inieriority, Several negroes were dis- cussing the question, and one remarked that in the beginnmg God created two men, one white and the other biack. To these he offered a choice of @ book or rice, and -the latter was taken by the black man. But the time has come, continued the negro, when we choose the book, we must have the book, ‘The lecturer stated that Liberia ts as fine country as he ever saw, in the United States or Europe. He recom- mended an emigration to that colony, especially of the negroes. The number of emigrants in the coun- try 1s 20,000, The republic owns Llty vessels, one of which is now in this country to convey @ number of emigrants and missionaries to the colony. ‘The lec- ture was very interesting throughout. A collection was taken up in aid of the missionary fund. now, HURSE NOTES, American © cand Lady Thorn trot for $2,500, mule heats, beat Uiree in five, in harness, at the Fashion Course this afternoon. Lt will be weir first appear- ance m public since the great trot at Narraganset Park, Rhode Island, where american Girl beat Lady Thorn and all the harness time on record, save that made by Dexter at Boston and Buffalo. This race between the famous mares will, undoubtedly, be a great exhibition of speed and endurance, a8 both possess these valuable qualities of the thorough- bred horse toa large extent. The 2:19 in a second heat, and the defeat of Lady Thorn, in 2:203;, in the third heat by American Girl, will make her the favor- ite, but not at very great odds, as Lady Thorn will be backed by her old admirers very strongly, as they still believe her invincible while Pfifer 1s at the helm; and they attribute her defeat at Narraganses solely to Pfifer's not being at his post on account of iliness, There is great speculation on time, and even money was laid on Saturday that 2:21 would not be beaten, as the tracks oa Long Island are not considered go fast as those down East. Should the day prove favorable there will be a large attendance to witness the grea: race, The Boston Jockey Club races will commence to- morrow and be continued on Wednesday, ‘The three days selected for the running meeting at the Fashion Course are Monday, September 6; Wednesday, September 6, and Saturday, September 11. The programme is a good one. The sports com- mence on the firat day with a mile dash for two year olds, carrying 90 pounds for colts and 87 pounds for filiies, and this will be followed by a four mile beat race, in which Privateer, Aldebaran, Flora Meivor, Citmax and Biddy Malone are entered. On the second day there will be @ hurdle race with welter ts, aud @ mule heat race, best shree in five. On last day there will be a han hurdle race and another at two mile hests. The bill of fare w popular with the masses and will be suc- ih. A trotting meeting is contemplated at Point Breeze Park, Philadelphia, to come off on the 7th, 8th and 9th of September. Ten thousand dollars will be offered in premiums. On the instant the following stakes for Jerome Park will close:—The Belmont Stakes for 1871, the Champion Stakes for 1871, the Nursery Stakes for the fall meeting of 1870, the Ladies’ Stakes for the spring meeting of 1871, and the Maturity for four year olds to close tor 1969, 1870 and 1871.

He tried to pass bexter on the lane @ day or two since, but he came to the same conciusion that Dan Pfifer did after his numerous races with Lady Thorn and Dexter, that the latter was a ‘‘hard horse to follow.” Mr. C.
