——— FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. Monpay, Nov. 20-6 P. M. ‘The week opened with great excitement in the Gold Room, where the announcement of the programme ef eoretary Boutwell for themonth of December Jed to @ decline in gold to 12134, the lowest point attained since September, 1862, when it was on the ascending scale in the earlier days of the war, The weakness of the market ever since the culmination of the “corner,” two months ago, has been the occa- sion of great uneasiness in mercantile circles, par- ucularly among the importers, to whom the flucta- Uons of gold are of eo vital importance, The Gold Room was therefore the scene of great attraction this morning, and the same class of business men who before were interested tn the fell machina- tions of the clique Uthat carried the premium beyond all reasonable bounds were again watching the revolutions of the pointer on the gold index, Then they were concerned because in making payment for goods dought earlier in the season they were forced to buy gold at an immense advance upon the price when their purchases were made. Now they were equally concerned because the decline in gold not only obliterated all margin of profit but en- croached upon the original price so far as to threaten serious loss if not bankruptcy. The openimg price an the Gold Room was 123, from which it ran down rapidly to 1214s. Here it turned upon the report that Mr. Stewart and other prominent merchants had telegraphed to Secretary Boutwell that if he dia not cease his gold sales there would be a pantc which would ruin the importers. We give the report for what 1t 18 worth, No one in Wail street seemed capable of verifying it, but probably our Washington despatches to-might will give the result of any such application to the Secretary of the Treasury should it have been made. Atibe same time there was a@ disposition to buy g@oid for the purchase of exchange, the combined effect of which was to cause @ reaction to 122%, ‘There was also some covering by the “shorts,” the Statement of the Gold Bank showing a total of over twenty-one millions of gold cleared on Saturday, The market closed strong at 122% a 122% at half- past five o’clock this evening; but holders are still very sensitive as to the future. The programme of Secretary Boutwell contemplates the sale of eleven millions during the month of December, and as the disbursements of the Treasury on the Ist of January in the payment of the coin interest on the public debt will be about thirty-five millions, and as the banks in this city now hold thirty millions of gold, the prospect is that there will be a glut of the precious metal at the beginning of the new year. ‘The speculative feeling for a rise is @ very tame one, and atthe same time few have the courage to sell gold “short” after 80 great a decline. Looking at the market’ from the Wall street standpomt, it 1s really weaker than if the speculation was as active when the “bulls” inaugurated their campaign last summer, for the reason that the diminished volume of operations creates less demand for gold. Tne range of gold since the suspension or specie pay- Meats is shown in the following table;— Fear, Highest, Lowest, 1862, 137 100 1363. 12245 1864 15144 1285, 125 182 1868. Fry 13234 1862 (Lo Nov. 121 ‘The excitement and decline in the gold market led to heaviness and a decline in the scock market, holders being greatly perplexed as to the effect which lower gold will have upop thelr investments, and being inclined to dispose of them, while those Who are not interested either way preferred await- ing developments, At the opening prices were not very different from the closing quotations on Satur- day except for the stocks which are more imme- diately the subject of special clique manipulation. ‘Thus Northwest common rose to 7654 and Rock Island to 10634, but eventually went of with the Whole market when the gold excitement was at its highest. With reference to Northwest, its initial strength was due to the fact that one promi- ment operator, who was reported to be heay- ily short, Hnding 1t impossibie to work adversely tothe upward current covered his contracts and joined the two other leading operators who origi- Rated the movement, thus bringing the forces of all parties to operate on the bull side. The directors of the road were also in session to-day, but adjourned Without taking any action on the question of a divi- dend, which, however, will come up for defluite settlement within a few days. It remams to (seen Whether the decline in the cliqued stocks was due to the general weakness of the day or to the beginning of sales in the process of unloading. The question of the effect of lower gold upon the stock market produces great uneasiness among the ‘bull’ cliques, aud Wey would doubtless prefer to be disinterested spectators of the Huctuations that may be expected, The Vanderbus stocks were weak and heavy. On aud after Wednesday, by resolution of the Stock Exchange, the call will be confined to the consoll- dated stock only. Pacific Mall declined to 61%. The express stocks were strong for American and sieady for the others. The fall m gold directly influenced the price of government bonds, which gave way at the noon call to the Jowest made since last summer. The ’67’s sold as low as 113'4. The deciine is ali the more re- markable for the fact that the Treasury contemplates the extensive purchase of thirteen millions of bonds during December, The price im London to-day was 8524, the advance there being predicated upon the decline in gold here. In the afternoon, with tue re- action in gold and under purchases by the short interest, the market rallied strongly and closed with the following quotations:—Uniied States currency sixes, 1074 @ 10734; do. sixes, 1881, regis- tered, 115}g a 11524; do. coupon, 115}, a 115%; do., five-twenties, registered, May and November, 110% a 111; do., 1862, coupon, do., 112% @ 11234; do., 1864, coupon, do,, 11075 a 111; do., 1865, coupon, do., 1114¢ @ lily; do., registered, Japuary and July, 11994 a 113%; do., 1865, coupon, do., 1134 a 113%; do., 1867, coupon, do., 113% @ 113%; do., 1868, coupgn, do., 1134 @ 118%; do. ten-forties, registered, Tho; a 107; do., coupon, 10634 @ 107. In Southern securities there was a steadier market for the North Carolinas despite a report that the agents here had ceased paying the interest on the special tax bonds, the recent heavy decline being of Alself sufficient reason for the reaction. In old Ten- nessees there was @ “break” of several per cent, under renewed assertions that the State will not do anything toward repudiation of the new bonds, fear of whicn occasioned the heretofore wide difference between the two issues. Otherwise the market was dull and steady, ‘The fallin gold has blocked the exports of pro- duce, and hence, under a scauty suppiy of com- mercial bills aud with the demand for exchange arising out of the lower price ior gold, the leading bankers advanced thelr rates for prime sixty day sierling to 109)4 and for sight sterling to 109%. The dull range of quotations 1s given below. The money market was a shade more active toward the close of banking hours, but the demand was fully met at six to seven per cent, according to the character of collaterals, In discounts there was 4 moderate business done in prime paper, Which was quoted at from nine to twelve per cent.

The Heratp of yesterday contained a statement of the fact that Captain Allen, of the bark Scottisn Bridé, which arrived here,on Sunday, is reported to have actually seen the great sea serpent and its young one on the 23d of the present month, The Commercial Advertiser of yesterday thought that Captain Alien deserved to be interviewed on tue sub- ject and gives the resait as follows:— THE NARRATIVE, Captain Allen fs a blui seaman, who has followed the ocean as @ profession Jor the last ten years. He 3s tue very type of an American skipper, aad all the statements he makes In regard to the serpent are worthy of belief, He states thaton tue 2id of this month, when in Jatitude 38 16, longitude 74 09, he descended to his cabin at about noon. He was just about eauung his dinner, woen his second mate de- scended the cabin stairs, and, in an excited manner, told him his presence was required on deck. ‘Think- ing the ship had sprung a leak or that some otuer dire mishap bad befalien them, he dropped the sun morsel before him and rushed up. When he arrived on deck he found the crew assembled on the starboard side of the vessel, looking with awe-stricken faces into the water. Not knowing the meaning of their strange conduct he also went there, and a sight met his eye the memory of which will never fade. Dur- ing the morning the weather had been ratuer bius- tering. The wind had been blowing from ‘‘all quar- ters’’ at the same time; but now there had comea calm, and the water was quiet and as clear as giass, although the sky was covered with dark, heavy clouds, that threatened to burst forth into a deiu atany moment. Upon approaching the side of the vessel tie captain saw in the water beneath a mon- ster suci as he had never seen fore. — It was about twenty-five feet in lengtt and pro- portionately tuck; its head was very large and fat, while at each side, on the extreme edge, were set two bright, scintillating eyes, which, pe says, looked dangerous and wicked. [is back was covered with large scales, like the crocodlie, about three inches in iength, which hooked together and formed an impenetratle armor. its belly was ol tawny yellow color, and altogether hideous, 1t was accompanied by a smaller specimen of Iw own Species, ana may have veen its offspring. This was but a few feet in length, but in shape ana colorciosely reseiubled the larger one. With the usual supersti- tion that always takes hoid of this class, the sallors regarded the serpeut with a sort of reiigious horror, and ail the efforts o1 the captain to have them make some attempt to capture it were avoruve. They jooked upon it a8 something supernacural, and Were not disposed to medule with it. The thing was about four jeet irom the vessel, was lying but a few Jeet below the surface of the Water and was easily discernible to all on board, The captain gave orders to have & boat lowered to attack the monster, but in tue Ineantine the attention of the emalier one was called to the presence of the vessel. Talsed 18 bead @ few inches above the surface and then went toward its larger friend and seemed to teil it of the circumstance, but whatever transpired be- tween them, the iarger one raised 11s head as though lo invesuigate its surroundings, ana then, with an “FISAY? STORY. easy motion, it dropped inw the ocean. in dis- appearing it went head downward, and is boay described @ cireie like @ hook, its tail raising out of the water, Which, the captain says, ed off to & sharp pout. The calm that had ve he yesel in the morning now gave piace toa strong northwest breeze, 43 hight closed around, Ourst into @ Storia, a panied by vivid lighting and roiling thander, The siip was tossed avout by the reientiess Waves, Which ever and anoa broke over her with reientiess fury, aud during tao Whole of this fearful night the sailors would not go on deck without lauterus, such was their fear of meeting the mouster, Now aud then they would go to the captain and @sk ils opinion ou the proba bility of that occurrenge; bub he, being no wiser than themselves, would laugh at their fears and bid them go to their work. About morming the storm died away, but until the following day, when they came in sight of land, the brave men enter- tained an unexpressed dread of the real of pe monster. Captain thinks that monster "aine from the regions of Florida, where he has often. heard of similar creatures from other smpmasters, and by following the warm current of the Guif Stream it reached the position where he found it. In his opinion it 18 a deep water animal, and he ac- counts for its ba So near the surface by the fact of the day and the monster not knowing how high up he was. ‘We have learned from other sources that unis monster 18 not so mythical as generally believed. The same has often been seen before, but always in fresh water. It is known that he ig bred in the warm South American rivers, aud it is Bup| c that, after attaining a navigable size, he betakes himself to the where ve upon the smaller members of the fii The serpent bas no fins, 80 in this respect he cannot be classed withsany kind of fish, and being covered with scales the eels will not own him; so till science gives him some fixed position he must remain alone, The only thu to which he beara any affinity at all is the shark, and this only in re- gard to his mouth, which‘opens underneath, so thas, like the shark, he must turn upon his back to catch his prey. However, there is one thing certain—all doubts about the existence of such a monster must end, for this one has been seen by a number of per- sons, 5 ene testify to the same svory ip all essential point BROOKLYN CITY.
