FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, A Flurry in the Gold Market. ‘THE PRICE DECLINES A HALF PER CENT. Sensational Rumors and Reports. The Speculative Elements Exercised Over the Situation. THE GOLD POOL MANCUVRING. The Suggestions of a Light Export of Specie To-Day. pete A Has the Outward Current Reached Its Climax ? Governments “Off”—Stocks Steady and Strong—Money Unchanged— Sterling Easier. WALL STREET, } TupSsDAY, June 11—6 P. M. On ’Change to-day wheat was strong in response to better advices from Liverpool. The four market Opened dull and heavy, but became moderately active later in the day and closed steady if not frm. The cotton market was weak and prices left Off at a decline of aout 34c, per Ib. MONEY 4 A 6 PER CENT. ‘The money market preserved its stereotyped features of ease and steadiness. The rate for new business was in almost all cases 5 per cent what- ever the character of the collaterals, bus as usual when borrowers have succeeded tn procuring funds on some of the less favored securities, they were unwilling to ask an alteration of rates, and re™ newals under these circumstances were at 6 per cent. The government dealers had large balances left with them at 4 per cent and were lenders themselves at 5 per cent. Mercantile paper is in good request and prime firms have little trouble in getting accommodation at the legal rate, while some names are not offered at better than 6 per cent, Business in discounts under 7 per cent is nominal, however, and confined to gilt-edged bankers’ paper. Foreign exchange continned heavy, and actual business was still considerably below the rates at the desk, being on the basis of 109% a 109% for Prime sixty-day sterling and 1103¢ for sight bills. The weakness is attributable, probably, to the re- cent negotiation in London of $8,000,000 of the Reading Railroad consolidated mortgage bonds. GOLD LOWRR—114% A 113%. The gold market opened firm and advanced to 114% upon the latest unpromising phase of the treaty question, the chances of a defeat of the supple- mental clause and of the whole treaty being strengthened, in the opinion of the Gold Room, by the tenor of the London market, where our securt- ties were to-day decidedly heavy and a quarter per cent lower, the °67’s going off to 93% @ 98%, a8 against 94 yesterday. Early in the afternoon it was surmised, from the interruption of the cable press despatches, that the two governments were again 200 in communication, and the hope was revived that | the treaty would be saved. At the same time a number of rumors got into circulation, and helped to precipitate a decline to 113%. Among these was a statement that the Treasury Department, in- spired by the failure last week to get the adver- tised amount of bonds, had decided to call in for redemption another instalment of $20,000,000 of the five-twenties of 1862. A private news agency’s despatch soon disposed of this story by contradict- ing it off-hand on the authority of the Acting Secre- tary of the Treasury. The weakness of exchange also exerted its influence, but the chief rea- son of the decline lay in the smaliness of the specie engagements for export to-morrow, the amount put up this afternoon being reported as not exceeding $450,000, althongh Wednesday's steamers have usually taken from a million and a half to two millions nearly every week for afew months. The inherent cause of the decline was signified last week when the imports underwent 80 sudden a falling off, and to which we called at- tention at the time. The downward movement in- duced considerable activity, and the contending faces of “bulls’? and “bears” had a desperate struggle at the dividing line of 114, at which figure the ‘bulls’ seemed disposed to make @ stand and rally the market. ‘Their resistance had the effect of creating a temporary reaction to 114% ; but gold was subsequently offered freely at 114, and sales were repeated at 113%. The Sub-Treasury paid out only $20,000 on account of called bonds and $47,000 on account of interest. ‘The fluctuations of the day are shown in the follow- ing table :— . 1 118% a 114 Jn the gold loan market the rates ranged from 3 per cent for carrying to flat for borrowing. The operations of the Gold Exchange Bank were as fol- lows :— ‘ Gold cleared...... Gold balances. Currency balances. . THE RAILROAD BONDS, The chief feature of the railway bonds was a sud. den rise of 4a6 per cent in the Boston, Hartford and Erie guaranteed mortgages, which, as might have been inferred from the decision of the Common Pleas, were in sudden request at the advance. The latest sales previous to to-day were in the vicinity of 52. The quotation, as will be seen below, has advanced to 56 a 60. Dealings in railway bonds were restricted and: prices steady.

The Southern list was extremely dull but the tone ofthe market was, if anything, firmer. At least the asking prices were a fraction higher, but buy- ers’ and sellers’ views were quite apart, as will gen- erally happen in a thinly attended market. The following were the quotationa at the close of busi ness:—Tennessee, eX coupon, 72% a 7334; do. new, 72% a 73%; Virginia, ex coupon, 47 a 50; do., regis- tered stock, old, 39 @ 42; do. sixes, consolidated bonds, 5615 a 57; do, sixes, deferred scrip, 17 a 18; Georgia sixes, 74078; do, Ravens, 8854 #90; North Carolina, ex coupon, 92a 33; do., funding, 1866, 24 a 26; do. do., 1868, 21 @ 225 do., new, 21 a 22; do. special tax, 1436 @ 15345 Missouri sixes, 97 a 9734; do., Hannibal and St. Joseph, 9334 a 94; Louisiana nixes, 60 a 65; do., new, 55 @ 60; do., levee sixes, 65 9 67; do. do, eights, 78 a 82; do. do. eights, 1875, 83.87; do., Penitentiary sevens, 60 a 70; do. rail- road eights, 70 @ 80; Alabama fives, 60 a 66; do. eights, 85 @ 90; do. eights, Montgomery and Eufaula Railroad, 86 a 90; South Carolina sixes, 62 a 553 do., new, January and July, 333 a 34%; do, do., April and October, 30a 31; Arkansas sixes, funded, 573¢ a 58. GOVERNMENTS LOWER. Government bonas were lower all around, in sympathy with both the decline in prices abroad and the lower ruling of the gold market here. The changes were not of the same extent as that in the gold market, but were not much less, taking the real average of gold in late dealings. The following were the closing prices:— United States currency sixes, 114% @ 114); do. do., 1881, registered, 114% @ 114%; do. do., coupon, 12014 a 12034; do. five-twenties, registered, May and November, 114% a@ 114%; do. do., 1862, coupon, do., 114% &@ 114%; do. do., 1864, do. do., 114% @114%; do. do., 1865, do. do., 115% a 115%; do. do., 1867, registered, January and July, 113, 4 113% ; do. do., 1865, coupon, do., 117% a 1174 ; do. do., 1967, do. do., 117% 9 117%; do. do., 1868, do. do., 117% @ 117%: do., ten-forties, registered, 111 a 111% ; do, do., coupon, 112 a 112% ; do., fives of 1881, registered, 112% a 113%; do. do., coupon, 112% a M1359. STOCKS DULL AND STRADY. ‘The stock market was very dull, particularly after the departure of the crowd to attend the Jerome Park races, and the morning call offered about the only resemblance to business that the day pre- sented, The tone of the market was an improve- ment upon the depression which characterized the dealings of the opening day of the week, and a cheerful feeling pervaded operations, inspired doubtless by a reflection from the Gold Room of the rumors of an intended further redemption of the national debt. The chief strength of the list was centred in the Vanderbilt securi- ties and in Erie, the latter recovering to 61%, as against 60% this morning, on an intimation that the opmion of the Common Pleas in affirming the validity of the claims upon the Erie road of the guaranteed bondholders of the Hartford and Erie Railroad will be contested in a higher Court, Pa- clfic Man) broke down to 74 quite suddenly, but re- covered to 75. Northwestern was weak and lower until near the close, when it rallied. Those who feel interested in the question of the city credit are referred to the report in another column of the negotiation of additional city stock. One firm bid apremium of 3.70 per cent for the whole of the amount offered.

The delightful weather which visited this section yesterday was fully enjoyed by the citizen soldiery of Brooklyn. The occasion which led to this enjoy- ment was the annual review and dress parade of the Fifth brigade, N. Y. 8.

The hours set apart for the brigade movi ments were from two P, M. to half-past four o'clock. The regiments comprising the brig- ade formed at their respective rendez- vous at nine o’clock in the morning, and shortly after that time the streets resounded with Martial music, as the Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Twenty-eigith regiments marched out to parade ground. under command of Colonel James Jourdan. the rebellion as the ‘“Red-legge pantaloons, did not come up to the required standard, either in point of numbers or ap- pearance, yesterday.

Colonel De Ie voise commanded this corps. Many of the officers and men are crip- pled veterans of the war, and the medal of hon reposed on the breasts of the sturdy boys of the rank and file, speaking louder than empty words their claims upon the affections of the nation. The Twenty-eighth regiment, a German organiza- tion, turned out with 250 men, under the command of Colonel Joseph Burger. This body of national uardsmen presented a very creditable aspect. Besides the infantry, there were present on the Park parade ground a body of hussars, eighty in number, under command of Captain Land- houser, and the Fifteenth battalion, under Major Myenberger, The morning at the Park was profita- bly passed by the soldiers in undergoing their drill in the ol of the company and of the battalion, There Were present about one thousand persons, who rested on the seats provided for their comfort ‘on the # ‘d infront of the “Shelter House,” or upon the balcony of the latter, as best sulted their fancy. The order of exercises was gone through under the direction of Brigadier General Dakin and staff—Brevet Colonel Frederick A.

Serub Race at South Cove. ‘There was large delegation of Jersey and South Prooklyn yachtsmen present yesterday at Ketch- um’s, on the South Cove, Jersey City, in anticipation of a scrub regatta, Last week they met together with a like intention, but as few boats put in an appearance they post- poned the race until yesterday. The morning was very stormy, and, consequently, there was another slim attendance, but on this occasion they deter- mined to have arace of some kind or the other, ‘The first mateh arranged was between the two cat- boats, Lakey and High Daddy, to sail four times round the South Cove, making in all about afive- mile race.

Sixth Day’s Proceedings of the General Synod—The New Brunswick Seminary Trouble Ended—Nominatio for the Vacant = Professorship—Revising the Constitation, The Synod met at nine o'clock yesterday morn- ing, and after the usual preliminary business Rev. CHARLES A. WALDRON, delegate to the Pres- byterian General Assembly of Hamilton, Canada, was received and returned the best wishes of his church, THE¢NEW BRUNSWICK SEMINARY. The discussion of the report concerning the Theological Seminary at New Brunswick was then resumed, Rev, Mr. Ganse took the foor and delivered a lengthy speech. He thought that a great deal had been said on the subject that had better been unsaid, and that words had been indulged in the import of which had not been fully consic “l by the au- thors, Yet he was of the opinion that the committee had been too anxious to find cause for umbrage, but they nad done nothing unconstitutional, though in some respects they had attempted to use their power unduly. He thought it very indis- creet for them to intimate that unless the recom- mended action was taken the institution would not receive any more donations, and they had no power to intimate to the professors that the Church wished them toresign. Mr. Ganse denied the right of the Synod to go behind the report and endeavor to ascertain what had been done inthe committee room, and he hoped that the members would stand upon their rights and refuse to answer if any at- tempt were made to do so, While referring to the ability of the professors the speaker said that some seemed to think that a professor was without value unless he had gained a national reputation either by bookmaking or review writin, , he thought, was absurd, Aman maybe able to do one thing well, Whether he can do another thing or not. Who Says he does not know that MANY A MINISTER) in his pulpit simply because he devotes the thought to the newspapers that, should go to his congrega- tion? Why may the same principle not apply toa professor of theology ? WHAT IS TO BE ASCERTAINED 18, that the professor has the will and ability te teach. If he has these he is competent; if he be without them he is not, though all the world read his books, ‘The test of competency Ls not always to be found tn the number of students who wait upon the instruction of a professor; nor Is the ability of a professor always to be determined by the opinion entertained of him by the students, It ia one of the chronic infirmities of human nature to criticise those who teach us; and if the students get it inte their heads that a change is likely to oceur there will always be plenty of them ready to express their views. Te was happy vo say, however, that what= ever charges in this instance had beep made anonymously, there were plenty of youhg men ready to come forward and give open testimony to the earnestness, kindness ai ility of the profes- sors engaged in the seminar he DAMAGE DONE 'TO THE INSTITUTION by these anonymous letters he could not estimate, but he held that to all loyal minds they did not in any sense nstitute evidence, and should neither have been read nor considered. Mr. Ganse sald he did not hold that any theological professor was be- yond criticism, but at the same time contended that they could not base criticism upon the statements of witnesses unknown. If any man came forward and made a charge he should be heard, and Mr. Ganse would insist, that the matter should be tho- roughly investigated, He wanted the reporters present to inform the public that no one on the floor of the Synod had endorsed : the sentiments in the letters referred to, He saw the germs of two parties in the Church in this matter, and he trusted that the Synod by their ac- tion would stamp out all opposition. le moved several amendments to the partof tne report under consideration, giving @ more kindly tone to the report, and striking out everything reflecting on the professors. Dr. ANDERSON, one of the committee, said that there was a na attached to every one of the let- ters, but he declined to divulge them. He declared that the only party he belonged to was the party determined to stick to the Church and its institu- tons through thick and thin, AMENDING THE REPORT.

THE NATIONAL GAME. es A Handsome Victory for the Matuals, Who Defeat the Haymakers by a Score of 12 to 4, The Mutuals and Haymakers played the third game of their championship series yesterday after- noon on the Union grounds, Brooklyn, in the pres- ence of about three thousand persons, and the re- sult was a complete victory for the New York boys, who captured the Trojans to the tune ot 12 to 4, From first to last the Mutuals outplayed their opponents both in the field and at the bat. In the third inning they batted Zettlein for two earned runs, and obtained a third on an error by Force, and another by Steve King, while in the sixth inning they hit the “Charmer” for four more, three of them earned. In the third inning Eggler, Start and Bechtel did the batting, the latter making a beautiful drive to left fleld for two bases; and in the sixth inning Cummings, Hicks, Hatfieid and Bechtel did the work, Hatfeld making a clean home run on a long liner to right fleld, and Bechtel POL 3 in hia wake with a three-baser to left field. iis sort of thing completely demoralized Zettiein, and, in the t inning, Martin took his place, and with such effect that the Mutuals scored but one run thereafter, and that not earned, the three runs claimed by the Haymakers in the third inning they have to thank Messrs. Pearce and Start, and for the one they got in the seventh in- ning they are indebted to’ Fggler, who dropped an easy fly from Steve King’s bat. Of the Haymakers’ play, either in the fleld or at the bat, buf little can be said in pratse, the whole nine, with the exception of McAtee, Wood and Martin, committing glarin, although he made one bad error, played wel;! but the same cannot be said of many of the others, Nel- son essayed short stop for the first time, and, as was expected by those who know him best, his per- formance Was a failure. Zettiein was quite wild in the delivery of the ball, and Allison did not cateh with his accustomed vim and vigor. On the part of the Mutuals, the play of Cummings, Hicks, McMnl- jan and Boyd was really brilliant. Hicks captured eleven men behind the bat, and McMullan took in five in left fleld, some of them being extraordinary catches.
