The fact 1s, the leading operators and specu- lators who were in the habit of sustaining quotations by their very presence are out of town, and also out Of stocks: for they have sold and gone to the water- ing places and seaside to enjoy the profits. There ‘was a good deal of buying to-day, the marker being rendered somewhat animated by the presence of dealers whom the inclemency of the weather kept in the city, but there were also steady and nu- merous orders to sell, and the result this evening shows a large decline from the morning prices, ‘Theso observations are reserved from the Vander- bilt shares, which moved independently of tneir fel- lows on the stock list; but even they were irregular, fitful and generally heavy, New York Central open- ing at 21334, falling to 210, reacting to 212% and Closing at 210%. Hudson River fluctuated between 184 and 182, Prominent in the decline were the Northwest stocks, which touched 78% for the common and 935 for the preferred; Rock Island, whteh yielded to 113%, and Michigan Southern, which touched 101%. Fort Wayne was firm, and St. Paul comparatively steady. In the miscellaneous list Pacific Mail was feverish, fuctu- ating between 82% and 81}%, while Western Union Was strong, opening at 36 and seiling at 36%. The ‘express stocks were irregular. Adams and Wells- Fargo were weak, American steady and United States and Merchants’ Union strong. The following ‘were the prices at the lgst sessidn of the Stock Ex- ‘change:—Canton, 63; Boston Water Power, 15 @ 1574; ‘Cumberiand, 31 a 33; Wells-Fargo Express, 21% bid; Adams Express, 5934 a 5974; American Express, 41 a 4234; United States Express, 74; Merchants’ Union Express, 9% bid; Quicksilver, 15% @ 17; Pacific Mail, 82% a 8274; Western Union Telegraph, 8634 a 37; New York Central, 21144 a 211%; Mar- posa, 8a 9; do. preferred, 14%{ a 1634; Hudson River, 184, cash; Harlem, 144; Reading, 933 a 93%4; Alton and ‘terre Haute preferred, 58a 60; Chicago and Alton, 1593 a 160; Toledo and Wabash, 734; do. preferred, 77 @ 79; Milwaukee and St. Paul, 765 a 77; do, preferred, 8634; Ohio and Mississippi, 3174 a 82; Fort Wayne, 15334 a 1534; Michigan Central, 132 a 18244; Michigan South- ern, 105 a 10534; Cleveland and Pittsburg, 1055 a 108; Rock Island, 114% a 116; Northwestern, 7934 a 794: do, preferred, 94 bid; New Jersey Central, 10034 @ 10134; Hannibal and St. Joseph, 12614 a 126%; do. preferred, 1243 a 125; Columbus, Chicago and Indiana Central, 36 bid. The first call this morning was interrupted and suspended on the announcement of the death of Mr. E. P. Gibson, late a member of the Board. After ap- propriate resolutions the Board took a recess to per- mit its members to attend the funeral, A report was current late tnis afternoon that Sec- retary Boutwell intended resigning within a few days and that Freeman Clarke would be his succes- sor in the Ca binet. The money market was abundantly supplied at seven per cent on call, with pledge of prime and mis- cellaneous collaterals. There was unusual demand, but balances were not pressed for engagement. On prime collaterals there were the usual exceptions at six per cent. Commerciai paper felt the change more sensibly, and under a better inquiry the range of discount rates for prime double names, at sixty days and four months, was trom eight to twelve per cent. There was @ good deal of currency at the in- termediate figures. Government bonds were strong, and at the first board sold at the highest for some of the issues ever attained, The London quotation (8234), the ease in money and the firmness in gold all contributed to produce thisresult. Afterwards the market became heavy with the decline in gold, but reacted late in ‘the afternoon, closing steady and dull at the follow- ing prices :—United States sixes, 1891, registered, do, do., coupon, 12034 a 121; do, five registered, 121% a 121%; do. do., 1862, 123% a 128%; do. do, cou- 122; do, do., coupon, 1865, twenties, coupon, pon, 1864, 121% @ 121% a 122; do. do., coupon, new, 1805, 120), a 12054; do. do., coupen, 1867, 120% a 120%; do. do., coupon, 1868, 12034 a 1205%; do. ten-forties, regis- tered, 100% a@ 110; do. do., coupon, . 110}, @ 110%; currency bonds, 107% a 108. Southern securitses were dull for the general list ‘and weak for the new Tennessces and new North Carolinas again. Virginias were only slightly af- fected by the announcement that the State would not pay the July interest before next January, the street doubting the press despatch on the one hand, ‘and tne recent election being regarded as certain to improve the State’s credit. The following were the closing prices at the last: board:—Tennesseé, ex coupon, 62 @ 62%; do. new, 56 a 5534; Vir- ginias, new, 61 a 62; Georgia sixes, 834¢ bid; do., sevens, 934%; North Carolina, ex coupon, 63 a 56; do. new, 45, South Carolina, new, 65 a 6534; Missouri sixes, 875; a 88; Louisiana sixes, 66 & 69; do., levee sixes, 65 a 67; Alabama eights, 92 a 95. Foreign exchange was quiet at the following range of quotations:—Sterling, sixty days, commer- Clal, 1004 ® 109%; good to prime bankers’, 109% @ 110%; short sight, 110% a 110%; Paris, sixty Gays, 5.18% @ 5.124; Bhort sight, 6.123; @ 5.10%; Antwerp, 5.18% a 5.12)4; Switzerland, 5.18% @ 5.1234; Hamburg, 35% a 36; Amsterdam, 405% & 40%; Frankfort, 403, a 40%; Bremen, 783, @ 794; Prus- Sian thalers, 70% @ 71%. Gold opened strong, the “bulls” making a sortie which put the price as high as 136%, but it subse- quently declined to 13554. A great deal of mystery en- shrouds the market, and operators are sorely puzzled to know how to take it, Exchange is firm, but arti- ticially so; yet gold shipments are light as compared with those of this season in previous years, It will be remembered thatthe first report of the specie shipped by the City of Boston on Saturday was $245,000, then the amount was increased to $434,750, and at the last moment to $584,760. The last ship- ment of $150,000 took place after the official report was made to the Custom ilouse, 80 that it does not appear in that week’s total of the exports of specie, It will appear in the statement of next Saturday, The Allemannia had $200,000 engaged this afternoon, although the line is not such a favorite as either the Cunard, French or Inman for specie shipments. The disbursements of coin interest to-day amounted to $467,824. The course of the market 1s shown in the : 5:80 P.

They likewise announce another gréat Islip sale of villa plots for to-day. They have felt themselves obliged to iimit the number of tickets to 500, being determined to make the excursion one of the most select and agreeable of the season. Ali suspi- cious characters are to be exciuded by rigorous de- es. ‘orne following, from the Veg Post of Saturday evening last, xives, Interesting information regard- ing the condition of the real estate market in that etty:— th spite of almost incessant rains, croaking about crops and the suspense in regard to the Park bills the business of buying and stilling real estate in and about the city continues remarkably good and prices are‘fully sustainea, with a gradual rise in many localities. The sales recorded last week nui. bered 167 and amounted to $683,942, A good amount of building is going on all about the city and sub- urbs, the structures being generally of the better character and many of them very costly. One needs to visit the different sections of the city every few months in order to be at all posted in rd to the growthot the region. It is astonishing how rapidly houses and settlements spring up in localities but just before considered too remote and inaccessibie to be settled upon for years.

THE BROOKLYN City RAILROAD INJUNCTION. —An injunction, the answer te which is returnable to- day, has just been served by the Brooklyn Railroad Company on Wm. Richardson, the lessee of the Atian- tic Street Ratlway and of the Brooklyn and Jamaica Railway, to restrain him from running cars on Flat- bush avenue, between Fifth and Ninth avenues, con- mecting the Atiantic street road with Prospect Park. Mr. Richards ciaims the right to run his cars over Flatbush avenue by virtue of an agreemant, under a recent act of the Legislature, made with Mr. Pier- son, the late President of the City Railroad Com- pany, by the terms of which he was. to have the right of crossing the Hudson Avenue Kailroad and running cars on Fiatbusa avenue over the track now covered vy the injunciion. BROOKLYN BOARD OF ALDERMEN. The Board of Aldermen met yesterday afternoon at three o'clock, President Bergen in the chatr, Al- derman Hathway, of the Twenty-first ward, of- fered a resolution for the increase of the police force to 500 men, owing to the great mcrease of crime, Alderman Clancy, of the Fifth ward, moved to lay ube matter on the table, which was done. An ordinance was adopted providing for the pro- hibition of the ringing of belis by jankmen while moving tucir carts Wirough the streets of the city. An ordinance was also adopted to regulate the blowing of factory whistles more loudly than neces- sary. The penalty for the violation of the first of these ordinances was fixed at ten dollars, that of the second at twenty-five dollars. The Committee on Gra- ding and Pavimr reported a resolution favoring the widening of Columbia street by taking two feet from the sidewalk on each side. Mr, Whitney, of the Firat ward, said that he would like to have tt laid over, as Rev. Henry Ward Beecher would like to ap- pear before the committee and give what seemed to him sufficient reasons why the proposed step should be abandoned. It was ee laid over. A communication from the Mayor was received, accompanied @ statement of the Commissioners of the Sinking Fund, from which it appeared that the receipts of this fund from January 1 to July 1 were $528,858 61. The disbursements by way of paying off principal upon city bonds amounted to $535,000, ‘Yhe Board adjourned to meet on the fourth Mon- day in August. POLITICAL INTELLIGENCE. INTELLIGENCE. The Fifteenth Amendment. The St. Louis Republican (democratic) thinks the radical papers publish strangely incorrect lists of the States which have ratified or assumed to ratify the Fifteenth amendment. What object is to be gained by repeatedly asserting that Iowa, Tennes- see, Minnesota and other States which have taxen no action, have fully accepted the amendment, passes conjecture. The action taken thus far is ag follows:— Alabama, said to have ratified. Arkansas, ratified March 16. Connecticut, ratified May 13, Delaware, rejected. Florida, ratified in June. Georgia, rejected. Illinois, ratified March 5. ewe, assumed to ratify May 14, No quorum present Ki assumed to ratify February 27, The sec- ond section was inpertect. ‘ Louisiana, ratified March 1, ofts, Tatified March 12, Michigan, ratified March 5. Miss ri, assumed to ratify March 1. Did not act upon the second section. ebraska, assumed to ratify. Certificate on file at the state Department is/nformal and insuiticient, Nevada, ratified March 1. New Hampshire, ratified July 1. New York, ratifled April 14. North Carolina, ratified March 5. Pennsylvania, ratiied March 26, Rhode Island, the Senate ratified May 27. The amendment wiil probably be rejected, because the Rhode Isiand radicals believe that under it they can no longer disiranchise their Irish Catholic laborers, South Carolina, ratified March 10. West Virginia, ratified March 3. Wisconsin, ratified March 5. ‘This makes only twenty-one States that can pos- sibly be claimed for the amendment thus far, and of these only seventeen have legally ratified it, A Reminiscence of General Rosecrans, (From the [llmois State cay Suet July 167} No man has a higher sense of honor than General Rosecrans, the democratic candidate for Governor in our sisyer State, Ohio, A proposition had been made to the War Department in the spring of 1863, and acted up by Major General Halleck, com. mander-in-chiel at Washington, offering a vacant major generalship in the regular army to the Gene- eral in the fleld who should first win an im- portant and decisive victory, General Halleck communicated this offer to the oficers of the army wherever stationed. On receiving this announce- ment “Old Rosey” replied to General Halieck, and said:— . As an officer and a citizen, I feel degraded at such an anc- tioneering of honors. Have we a general who would fight for his own personal benetit when he would not for honor and bis country? He would, in that case, come basely by his commission, and deserve to be despised by men of honor. But are all the brave and honorable generale on an equality as to chances? If not, it f# unjust to those who probably are most deserving. The Governor Elect of Virginia and the United States Senatorship, The Alexandria (Va.) Gazette does not credit the statement that “an arrangement has been made among Virginians, members elected to the Legisia- ture and Governor elect Walker, by which the latter 1s to be chosen as United States Senator for the long term.'’ The Gazette says it does not believe in the truth of any such report, or that any such “arrange- ment”—wholly unauthorized by the people of Vir- ginfa—ts in ore eon: The Baltimore Swen does not think that the au Ee) would like to give up their chosen standard bearer in the great work of reconstruction so pi rously begun under his auspices, nor does it appear that Mr. Walker, who told Genera!

A Well Deserved Eulogy. bd “Physician” writing in reference to the Honse of the Good Sheptierd says:— Sir—The Lg or in the HERALD of the 16th inst. of the case of Delia Dillon is calculated to give an erroneous impression in regard te one of the most perfect systems of moral and material charity which vhs city enjoys. The allegation of ill-treatment 1s absolutely unfounded, Your correspondent has ample opportunities for watch- ing the operation of tue tnstitution known as the “House of the Good Shepherd” ever since its foundation, and can testify from personal knowledge that tue course pursued by the sisters of the order towards voluntary peniients and persons committed ior restraint and correction is charac- terized by uniform gentleness, kindness, charity and compassion, The fruits. witnessed in numerous cases are complete reformation. and the voluntary adopuion of a life of labor aud self-sacrifice, instead of one of sin and shame, The Coal Swindle. “J.

EP.’ tells. his experience of a visit to the Stock Exchange, in Broad sreet, and relates with so much gravity how a whole host of the bulls and bears set upon him, kuocking and pushing him to this side and that, as to make the narrative read like a grim joke. His own words give the key to what must have veen a very ludicrous affair:—‘‘Mortified with chagrin, I then lookea to the officers of the Exchange for an explanation, bat they had only a contemptuous smile, Seeing this, ! left the building in disgust, while the hooting and hissing Knot of individnals— oh! no, but of the whole assembly, continued til I was on the street. ‘These facts will speak for them- selves. On the stairs I asked a gentleman what all this meant, dhe answered that this was the way and strangers were received, he him- n treated in the same manner the A Good Idea. “Health” observes that the present system of cleaning the streets 18 very silly and ineifective and makes a proposition which is at once sensible and to the point. He says:—“Would itnot be well durtug vhe summer months to have our firemen take out their hose occasionally and give the streets a clean Washing? In Europe the fire companies turn out reguiariy for this duty, and one scouring of the hose would accomplish more toward keeping the city clean and healthy than the combined eiforts of our Street Commissioners and Board of Health, iu gess time, with bester results and at less expense.’ Decline of Union Square. “Anon,” writing about the degeneracy of Union Square, that it has long been notorious as a ren- dezvous for improper Characters, says:—‘As for the seats, they seem to have become the exclusive property of lewd women and loafers. The latter may be seen any fine evening stretched out on them until long atter midnight, snoozing off tue effect of @ benzine debauch.’’ What has the keeper to say about ail this?

She was closing a etd of the house, up stairs, when, by @ sudden sh ipon the right side ef her head, she was thrown across the room, her right stde bein, completely paralyzed fora time.

A portion of the uid passed down the west pillar to a natl, to. which was attached a wire clothes line. baeogay the direction of the wire it ran to the L, striking a large and powerful post, which it tore to shreds, passed down and bored a hoie two feet deep into the ground. On the west end of the house ashaft passed down from the upper to the lower window, where it ripped out the curtain fix- ings, stove a hole in the wall and disappeared no one.could tell where. A shaft thrown off ih the centre of the house played pranks with the carpet rods on the stairs and ended upon the bell wire. The house looked as though it was weil filled with electricity, and it 1s hard telling where it first et we think from appearances it was upon the piazza roof, directly over the pillar where the large clothes wire was attached, the shaft dividing here to the west and east, following the composition used in the roofing.’’ EN SITE OT “MARRIAGES AND DEATHS. _ jarried, DARMAN—MILLER.—On Friday, July 16, by the ‘i Mr. Jones, THOMAS G.
