Money in Active Demand, Closing at 7 Currency to 7 Gold. 1. STREET, THURSDAY, bee 31—6 P, u.} On 'Change to-day cotton was in moderate de- mand, but 3c. per lb. easier for lots on the spot and from c. a c. per Ib. lower on the remote market. Flour was active and firmer. Wheat and Corn were in good demand and higher. FORBIGN EXCHANGE LOWER. “There was a further decline of an eighth per cent 4n foreign exchange, the resuit of the continued heavy export of cotton to Liverpool, the English market having recovered its activity under the easier feeling in the money market, (With the decline there was a good de- mand for bills and active dealings, the tall im gold having enabled the execution of a good many orders from the importing merchants, The following were the rates at the close:—Sterling, sixty days’ commercial, 108 a 108%; do., good to prime bankers, 108%; a 108%; do., short sight, 1104 1103; Paris, sixty days, 5.33% a 5.28%; do., short Bight, 5.2434 @ 6.23%; Prussian thalers, 7134 a 71%; Antwerp, 5.80 a 6.23%; Switzerland, 6.28% @ 5.2214; Hamburg, 35% a 35% ;-Amsterdam, 39% a 40%; Frankfort, 405; a 4114; Bremen, 94% a 9534. These figures still further remove the chances of Bpecie shipments, With sixty-day sterling at 108% bills are much cheaper to send than gola THE BANK OF ENGLAND did nothing with the discount rate, which was suf- fered to remain at its minimum of six per cent, although the bullion reserve of the bank shows & gain during the week of £405,000. A reduc- tion is all the more probable, therefore, sat the next meeting of the court of dircc- tors, if not at an earlier date. The street Fate in London for money is quoted at 5% a 5% percent. Our bonds underwent a further im- provement of 34 a % per cent to-day, but the 67's pubsequently fell off to the opening price, the ten- forties and new fives holding their advance, Con- gols were off an eighth per cent, as if through dis- Sppointment at the non-reduction of the bank fate. Eries were ¥ lower. In our comparative ‘wble yesterday the second line of consols should dave read ‘“‘consols for account.’ MONEY 5 A 7 PER CENT. Themoney market was active, but without the extremes and wide fluctuations of the earlier days of the week, the lowest rate on call having been 5 percent and the highest 7 gold, equivalent to 77% per cent in currency. This closer and steadier working of the market is interpreted as an indica- tion that the stock cliques are loading up again for the “new departure” in speculation, to begin with the re-election on Tuesday of General Grant and the present administration, although some littic perturbation has been occasioned by a rumor that Secretary Boutweil will be displaced to make way for ex-Commissioner Delano. This can make little difference, however, with the success or failure of THE “NEW DEPARTURE,” ‘because the bond-buying, gold-selling and debt. reducing policy of the Treasury Department was inspired by General Grant and will be continued, no Ymatter who holds the portfolio of the Treasury Becretaryship. Indeed a change of policy which should reduce the debt ata slower rate and leave the money in the hands of the people for reinvest- ‘ment in trade and the expansion of industry would be really more beneficial to the country than the present hasty honesty which compels the govern- ment’s creditors to ‘take their money before they wish it, much less ask for it. In this connection Aeference must be made to a report of a NEW ISSUE OF GREENBACKS, cortained in a Washington despatch asserting that the November debt statement, made up for publication to-morrow will show, that the Outstanding legal-tenders are $4,500,000 more than the amount stated on the ist of October, implying that there has been an extra or new issue to that extent during the past month, It will be remem- ered that the HERALD alluded a few weeks ago to the appearance of a large quantity of new green- backs in Wail street, which were traced back to the Sub-Treasury, but were supposed to have been emitted in exchange for returned mutilated cur- yency. If the facts are as répresented in the ‘Washington despatch, there seems to be no doubt 4hat the Treasury has issued so much of THE RESERVE OF $44,000,000 which Mr, Boutwell and his advisers claim has been but temporarily retired, and may be issued when- ever the interests of the government or of business pay require. If the new issue has been used to ‘cancel an equivalent of the three per cents, no objection will be made to the exchange of a non- Anterest bearing obligation for one bearing in- ferest, especially as this was the purpose of the Creation of the original $50,000,000 of greenback e, But if the new notes are an extra con- ‘tribution and an addition to the amount of legal fenders in circulation, popular opinion will hold Mr. Boutwell to a strict account for an unnecessary ‘and unlawful increase of the public debt. We shall await the Treasury statement with much in- terest to see whether any explanation is given, THE RAILROAD BONDS, The following were the bids for the rallroad bonds :— New York Con 6's, iow York Cen 6's ‘83... 1387.

GOLD STRONG—112% A 112%. The gold market opened weak upon the advi-es of a turther advance in our bonds in Europe and in -view ot the possible early negotiation in Europe of the forty million mortgage of the New York Central Railroad, put suddenly rallied with the report of a new issue of legal tenders by the Treasury and ad- vanced from 112% to 112%. The government sold @ million of gold at 112.48 a 112.31. The bids called for a total of $8,281,000 at 112.43 a 111,88. The course of the market is shown in the table :— 12% 1 P.M. 12% 2P.M. 112% 2:36 P. 112% «3 P.M. 112% 3:40 P. In the gold toan market the rates ranged irom 4 per cent for carrying to 1-32 for borrowing. The operations of the Gold Exchange Bank were as follows :— Gold cleared. + $66,397,000 1,516,679 i 1,792,406 The Sub-Trgasury paid out $592,000 on account of interest and $7,000 on account of redeemed five- twenties, The European steamer took out $60,000 in silver. STOCKS IRREGULAR AND UNSETTLED. Te stock market was unsettied, with an improv- ing tendency, which resulted, after much fluctua- tion, in a higher grade of prices and a strong feel- ing at the close, when, with few exceptions, the best quotations of the day prevailed, The interest centred chiefly in the course of Northwestern, which advanced nearly five per cent to-day, thus recovering more than had been lost in the four and abalf per cent decline of the previous day, the earliest price having been 783g, and the sales toward the close at 834 a 83%, The “bull” and “bear” cliques in this stock are likely to have A LIVELY TIME in their contest over it before they end their hos- tilitics. The “bulls” had tt completely under their control, as shown in advancing it to 833,, the high- est price reached this season and the highest since last Winter, the certificates being so scarce as to lend “flat’’ in this afternoon’s deliveries, The pre- dicament of the “bears” is represented to be in no way enviable. The party comprise Daniel Drew and a pretty large proportion of the directors of the company, who began speculating fora decline after the stock had passed 75 in its upward movement under the auspices of a pvol comprising Jay Gould and anumber of the so-called Vanderbilt or Lake Shore party. Some are inclined to think that JAY GOULD SKIPPED OUT at 80and 83, and having bagged his profits went back te Pacific Mail and Western Union, leaving his confréres to carry out the speculation. This ver- sion of the matter is quite improbable, however, as the operations of to-day betray the presence in Northwestern of his bold and skilied hand. Be- sides it would be throwing away too tempting a chance of paying offold scoresin the cornering business with Daniel Drew. On the other hand, it is quite surprising and has been a puzzle to tlie street all day that the directors’ pool were unabie to depress the stock by their announcement of a new issue of ten millions of convertible “bonds— equivalent to TEN MILLIONS OF STOCK. The explanation is that the new stock thus re- motely provided for cannot be put upon the mar- ket for thirty days. Meantime the “bulls’’ control the existing stock, and can mark the price as high as they please. The “bears” are afraid to put out the new atock right away, and so cause the expul- sion of Northwestern from the Board, for the Governors would then require the settlement of contracts as the capital now stands, and the “bulls” could prosecute the ‘corner’ to still more dangerous severity. A more sceptical view of the whole matter is that the cliques are really working in harmony and getting up all this SIDE SHOW for the entertainment of the public and to de- lude them into selling out their stock and going short of the market, which is inher- ently bullish, by reason of the existing coinci- dence of the several political, national and in- ternational causes involved in the issue of the Presidential election and the easier financial posi- tion of America and Europe at the present time, and offers, therefore, the opportunity for a highly profitable return to clique speculation. In support of this ingenious theory was cited the circulation of reports all day to the effect that ° “A NEW ISSUE OF ROCK ISLAND stock was contemplated, the rumor being sufficient to cause a drop in the price from 109% to 10754. ‘The rally in Northwestern was also ascribed to the stringency of the laws of Illinois, which, having fixed the capital of the company at a certain amount, would make the conversion of the con- vertible bonds a criminal and felonious procedure. The general market was swayed more or less by the fluctuations referred to, and PACIFIC MAIL, which had been put aside, would not stay unno- ticed, and worked up a rise of about three per cent, closing in the vicinity of 05. It was late in the day,when the Washington rumor of a new issue of greenbacks reached the street; but tired as was the market, it responded rapidly to the inflating news and underwent a sudden change to general activity and buoyancy, in strong contrast to the irregular feeling and hesitation of the earlier part of the day. Atlantic Mail opened at 15, as a conse- qence of the news of the burning of the steamer Missouri, but advanced to 18.

M, The trade movement. was, of course, slow to-day, and must continue to be adversely affected by the blockade for some time to come, even in the event of the speedy termination of the horse plague, be- cause of the unprecedented accumulation of all sorts of merchandise awaiting transportation. Purchases are postponed from day to day wholly on account of the impossibility of moving the goods, and trade will be set back some weeks at the very best. Scarcely any goods have been shipped by rail for over @ week, and at the receiving stations every day is represented to be asa holiday. Nothing like the present state of affairs has ever before been known, and, though there is some improvement in the condition of the horses reported from day to day, it will be some time before the wheels of com- merce will be again in active operation or the blockade entirely removed. The markets to-day were quiet, though prices were pretty generally sustained, On ’Change the movement in bread- stuffs was considerably more active, particularly for four. Wheat, under a fair demand, was again dearer, and the same remarks apply to corn.
