He also gives quite a lengthy interview with Mr. Crane, subsequent to the wring of the letter above quoted, in which he says Mr. Crane assured him that Mr. Cheney would ve absent. The Bishop alvo says that Dr. Kelly, during the preceding week, came to ask his consent to ofi- clate in Christ church the following Sunday at the invitation of the warden, and that Mr. Cheney had urged br. Kelly todo so. Dr, Kelly replied tiat he could not compromise himself by any service recog- nizing Mr. Cheney, Mr, Cheney rejoined that he dil not wish any clergyman to be compromised through nim with the Bishop; that the invitation was from the warden alone, and that he was the bearer; that he (Mr, Cheuey) expected to be absent; but il by chance he should be in Christ church he would Given at Rome, at st.

Foreign exchange was dull and steady at 109 for prime bankers’ sixty day sterling and 109)5 for sight bills. GOLD UNSETTLED—112% A 113 A 112%. The gold market was strong but unsettled. Under coufiicting opinions as to the extent ol the bids that would be made for the government gold and the amount that would be awarded, the price during the forenoon frequently nuctuated upon the two quotations 112% and 112%, The opening of the bids at noon disclosed a demand for a total of $10,234,000, at prices ranging from 111.62 to 112.77, The crowd of brokers hurried over to the Gold Room on this announcement, and their competition advanced the price to 1127%. A tear of a sale of more than a mil- lion checked the rise for a time, but eventually the order was received from Washington to sell one mil- lon, and gold advanced to 113, The award ot gov- ernment gold was made at 112.634 a112.77, The market remained steady at 112% 4113 until alter three o’clock, when the announcement of the Trea- sury Department, calling In five-twenties for re- demption, o¢casioned a relapse to 112 11-16.

Gold balances, Currency batances.. ‘The steamer took out $136,000 in specie, GOVERNMENTS STRONG. The rise in gold imparted additional firmness to the government list, and prices advanced 4 a 3¢ per cent, the improvement being maintained after tue subsequent reaction in gold, the explanation lying in the action of the Treasury Department above referred to. The market was only mod- erately active, however. It closed steady at the following quotations:—United States currency sixes, 116}¢ a 11634; do., 1881, registered, 11735 & 118; do. do, coupon, 118% a 118%; do. five-twentles, registered, May and November, 11434 @ 11494; do. do., 1862, coupon, do., 114% a 11474; do. do., 1864, do. do., 11455 a 1147 10. do., 1865, do. do., 11454 a 114%; do. do., registered, January and July, 11344 & 11344; do, do., 1865, coupon, do, 113% a 113%; do. do., 1867, do. do, 113% a 113%; do. do., 1863, do. do., 11434 0.11436; do. ten-forties, registered, 11a 1114; do. do, coupon, 114% a 11474, SOUTHERN SECURITIES DULL.

STOCKS ACTIVE AND STRONG, BUT IRREGULAR. The stock market was made active by the “bull? cliques, Who are assiduously using every develop- ment in the progress of the new loar and refunding of the debt to stimulate an outside speculation, but so far have met with very discouraging success. The leading stocks were handled by them in im- mense blocks to-day, with a view to exciting public interest, but the result was a further enlargement of their own burdens. They have put so bold a front on teeir movement that the “shorts” have been generally irightened into closing their con- tracts, and tue “bear? interest 1s almost nomt- nal. The situation is so well understood that the cliques jail to draw the outsiders into the market. Every operator in the city and every speculator throughout the rural disiricts ts thoroughly eplightened on this point. Hence the indifierence shown to the frantic efforts of the cliques to get up @ grand “bull? campaign on the strength of the refunding of the $200,000,000 of the public debt, Last winter, when Mr. Boutwell was getung ready to piace his five per cents, the cliques, all loaded up with stocks, intending to sell when the new loan should be taken, The new loan hung fire and stocks took a sudden fall just at the beginning of summer, Then the Syndicate were entrusted with the new loan and the cliques took fresh courage, The first instalment of the new loan has been placed; Mr. Boutwell has called in one hundred millions of the five-twenties, and the cilques are ready to sell whenever the public give them a market. Mean- ume, ag they own all the floating stock of several railway and other corporauons, they can mark prices up to any figure agreeable to their whim. The principal features to-day were Lake Shore and Union Pacific, which advanced each 1% per cent, the former to 112% and the latter to 344. The rest of the list averaged an improvement of 34 a 34 per cent—quite a small one, considering the noise and commotion made over it. Wabash, Pittsburg and Panama were exceptionally heavy, the last men- tioned declining from 73 to 70, Western Union was weak unttl lave in the day, when tt suddenly ad- vanced to 62% in the miscellaneous railways «o, ©. and I, ©.” udvanced to 211%.
