I. A. BOOLE. The mortal remains of the late Francis I, A. Boole were borne to their last resting place yesterday, ac- companted gy many of those with whom he had as- soclated in life and representatives of the municipal government, in which he had, in his time, figured so prominently. According to announcement, the members of both branches of the city government assembled yesterday morning at the Clerk's office, and proceeded to make final arrangements for at- tending the funeral, With the efficient and, in fact, the Indispensable ald of Keeper George Roome, the preliminaries were all satisfactorily dis- posed of, aud in due time the municipal proces- sion departed from the City Hall and proceeded to the Bapttst church in Sixth street, near avenue 0, At the church the representatives of the city and county government and attach¢s of tlie public o- ces took seats assigned them in the pews on either side of the main aisle, Polar Star Lodge of Masons, of which Mr, Boole had been a member, together with delegations from other lodges, some 200 in number, oceupied pews along the side aisles, while the remaining portions of the church were crowded with members of the congregation, friends of the deceased, and many who evidently belonged to the brigade of funeral gapers. Outside the church the street and sidewalks were crowded with the curious residents of that thickly populated locality. Shortly after one o’clock the hearse bearing the remains, accompanied by the pallbearers and fam- ily of deceased, arrived atthe church. The casket containing the corpse was placed in front of we reading desk, while the family and mourners took Fhe in the pews immediately in front of the plat- form. ‘The ceremontes were commenced by the Rev. Mr. Angell, pastor of the churen, who read appropriate selections from the Book of Job, and from st. Paul's Boe vo the Romans, Concluding the reading, r, Angell made @ short, forcible address, impress- ing on the minds of ils hearers the lesson which the gad occasion taught them, the sentiment of which Was that it was not all of life to live nor all of death to die. That life would be worth little; honor, fame, Reve of no account if they were all to end indeath. rhe frequency of such sights as that then present had a tendency, no doubt, to maxe the dwellers in jJarge cities careless, aud, pe! callous; but those who had known Mr, Boole and who saw him cutdown tn the prime of life and manhood could uot but feel the tmportance of the lesson. ‘che Rey, Mr. McCoomb was then ttroduced, and commenced by stating that he knew but little of deceasod other than through bis family and friends, and tien went on to show that if he agi ay did not achieve the highest honors in tie gift of the people of this city it was “because he was betrayed 1a the house of his friend.” Ga this he founded a Held J discourse, taking occasion to make what looked like very pointed allusions, by no means complimentary to many who were present, and causing numbers to show their evident disgust, All that he said abouy “being called an oflicehulder was now equivalent to being cailed a Knave” may possi- biy be true, but under the circumstances of the occasion it seamed sadiy tnappropriate in the pre- sence of those wio had assem)iod to pay the last sad tribute of respect to the memory of one who had often fougitt aud iavored with t.em i public lie, The Rey. Mr. Woodrwf delivered the ciosing after which those present fled past the ch one taking a giance at the remains, The procession was formed, ‘tue representatives of the 4 county aud State governments marched four abreast, followed by te members ol the Masonic Order and other friends of deceased; then the hearse, lollowed by the relatives and mourners In carriages. ‘The cortege moved through Seventh siveet Lo avenue D, through avenue D and Columbia street to Grand street, tothe terry, The remains were conveyed to the beautiful Cemetery of the Svergreens, where they were deposited with the ustial impressive Ma- sonte ceremo ‘The pailbearers comprised H. ©, Caikix senting the United States Congress; J. the State Senate; H.

SUNDAY, Sept. 5, 1860. ‘The dulness and qutet of the summer have given Place to great activity in Wall street affairs, and the fall campaign opens with unusual briskness. The chief movements of the past week were in the Gold Room, where a bull combination of reputed large capital and possessing undoubted boldness have taken the market by storm and precipitated a contest seldom equalled in monetary affairs for the enormous char- acter of the transactions involved. It seems that a few weeks since, when gold was going down 30 rap- idly before the reports of heavy cotton and wheat cropa this season, and had touched 1311, the cliquo were secretly purchasing the gold which the “bears” were so liberally selling, They did not show their hands, however, until ‘Thursday last, when the whole amount offered for sale by the government at the Sub-Treasury in this city was taken in one lot and so greedily bid for that the price oftered was not only higher than other bids, but in advance of the then market price. The street at once comprehended the situation, and the “bears” were thrown into consternation by a thenceforward steady rise of the price to 137, the extreme figure touched on Saturday. ‘he pluckler “bears” were not atraid of the movement and were heavy sellers, giving the ‘bulls’ all they would take. The total clearances of gold on Friday and Saturday aggregated the enormous sum of nearly four hun- dred millions of dollars, which, as the legitimate ae- mand for gold is dally seldom more than two or three millions of dollars; will show the extravagant character of the speculation which is going on in the Gold Room. In other words, the speculators on the two days mentioned bought and sold four times more gold than there is in the whole United States and twenty times more than there is In all the banks of this city. The contest was still in progress up to the close of daylight on Saturday evening, when the price had fallen off to 13744, but was strong at that figure. The bears’ say they will hold out until the cotton shipments come to their rescue, The “bulls? say that meantime they will “squeeze” them by excessive borrowing rates equal in the aggregate to a stil further advance, ‘The range of the price during the week 1s shown In the table:— Highest. Lowes', so The money market was easy at seven per cent as the extreme rate on call loans with pledge of miscel- laneous collaterals, Commercial paper was dull at nine to twelve per cent for prime acceptances, Duy- ers giving the preference to short time peper, For- eign exchange was utterly demoralized by the ex- citement in gold, the advance in tie price of the latter repressing the little demand witch exists at this season and draw- ers pressing their bills for sate in order to get the gold. At the close on Saturday the nominal qui ons were 10824 for prime bankers’ sixty day and 1087 for sight sterling. The prospect in the money market during the ensuing week is flattering from the character of the bank Statement, the important features of which ‘re an increase of over three millions tn legal ten- ders, resuiting from the liberal disburse- ments of the Treasury, a decrease in specte of over two millions, accounted for by the heavy customs payments, and an merease in loaus of a million anda half. The deposits have cor- respondingly increased—viz., by nearly two and a half mifitons. Tue total reserve has increased $1,029,503, against a reduction in the toval liabilities Of $2,306,849. The banks hold lawful money in ex- cess of the amount required by law, $17,026,224, against $16,573,336 during the preceding week, The totals of the Jast two statements are coatrasted as follows:— August 28, Sept. 4. $26},012, 109 $202, 549,839 Specie. = 194 17,461, Cireulation.. . 83,969,005 Deposits + 188, 191,101,036 se eeeeee 56,929,782 ‘The changes i the respective items are exactly as follows:— Increase in loans, Decrease 11 . Decrease in Increase in deposits...... Jucrease in legal venders, Despite the programe of increased purchases of bands during the month of September the govern- ment market was heavy aud trreguiar, although the tone at the close was much firmer than during the middie of the week, when the derangement of values was first brought abour by the movement in gold. The feeling was quite general that active money was at hand, and holders were induced to part with their bonds. The bank statement dissipated this fear, and the purchases on foreign account at length checked the declining tendency. The following closing prices on Satur- day are below the best of the week:—United States sixes, 1831, registered, 122% a 123; do, do., coupon, 12: 231g; do. five-twenties $1,537, 730 seve 3,007,380 . 39, 2,3: do., coupon, 1864, 12 1865, 122g a 12293; do, do., coupon, new, 1865, 121% a 121%; do do, coupon, 1467, 121% a 121}; do. do, coupon, 1868, 1216 a 12114; do. ten-fortios, registered, 111}g a 111%; do. do., cou- pon, 111% a 112; currency bonds, 11014 a 111. The stock market was animated but irregniar. The interest chiefly centred m the Vanderbilt stocks, which were down on the programme for heavy scrip and cash dividends by reason ,of the consummation of consolidation, which was expected to go through during the week, as Commodore Vanderbilt and the chief officials of Hudson River and New York Cen- tral were in town. Indeed, the street at the close on Saturday went home prepared for an (vlaireisae- ment over Sunday atter the manner of the sorip dividend last winter, The Western stocks were heavy and lower, and the miscellaneous ist without featnre.
