4 FINANCIAL AND COMMBRCIAL. A PEACEFUL PROSPECT. Money Settled Down to Its Summer Work. HEALTHY TONE OF THE FOREIGN MARKET. Advance in the Premium of the French Loan. GOLD STEADY. Diplomatic Play Between — the Bulls and Bears, Government Securities and Rail- ; road Bonds Firm. The Stock Market Dull, but « Rally Anticipated. WALL STRERr, } Monpay, May 26—6 P. M. On 'Change to-day cotton was dull, and for “‘fu- ture” prices were easier. Flour was dull and tendea in the buyers’ iavor. Wheat was easier, and corn steadier, THE MONEY MARKET. Money seems to have settled down to its Summer ‘work, and is going about and doing good at from four to seven per cent on call loans, the disposi- tion this afternoon being towards the lesser figure and from seven to nine per cent discount on commercial paper. Nor does it seem possible to descry any cloud in the heavens likely to disturb the present monetary situation, There are no wars or rumors of wars; peace everywhere pre- vails except on the borders of far-off Russia; our country is prosperous; our exports are neariy equal to our tmports; railroads are earning More money than last year; our cotton crop bids fair to ada at least eighty millions Of dollars to our stock in trade, and, altogether, the prospect is one pleasant to contemplate. The Jegal tenders outstanaing to-night are $356,425,000, an increase of $60,000 since Saturday. Foreign exchange weakened to-day, being checked by the unsettling influences of the gold market, and the leading drawers have come down another elghth, The receipts irom internal revenue to-day amounted to $725,c00. ihe following are the Tates quoted :—Sterling, sixty days, commercial, 108 @ 108% ; do., good to prime bankers’, 108%; a 108% ; @o., short sight, 1095; a 100% ; Paris, sixty days, 6.30 @ 6.25; do., short sight, 5.21% a@ 5.20; Prussian thalers, 71% @ 72; Antwerp, 5.274% & $.223¢: Switzerland, 6.2714 a 6.2234; Hamburg, 95% ® 96; Amsterdam, 39% a 40; Frankfort, 40% a 14; Bremen, 9534 a 96, THE FOREIGN MARKET. Advices from London are still encouraging, inas- Tiuoh as they indicate none of the changes which were anticipated as a sequence of the political and financial affairs on the Continent. There have been no further shipments of bullion; the new French loan was buoyant and advanced to 4X per cent premium, and American securities were Steady and unchanged. Consols closed easier for money at 933j, Eries were quoted at 483, a 485% and new 5's at 8934 a 8934. GOLD 118% A 118%. The manipulators in the gold combination, which it is now tolerably certain has been organized, do not yet seem inclined to show their hands, Thus far they have been content to quietly absorb the cards offered, without exposing a single trump of their own, The play is evidently a diplomatic one, and at present’ it appears to be anything but their purpose to excite apprehension. In fact, the clique are understood to be loaning gold at the prevailing market fates, with a view to calm any premonitory symp- taqms of disturbance that may have been excited by the rumors of the street, and likewise to main- tain, as far as practicable, the present rates of ex- change. How long this condition of affairs may gontinue is not to be foretold by those who are not behind the movement, and the “street” is there- fore content to fold its hands and await om THE PROGRESS OF EVENTS. Neither local nor foreign influence, however, has thus far aided the clique one iota, On the con- trary, the expectation that the death or removal of Thiers and a change inthe administration of the French government, which was confidently relied upon as an exciting cause in behalf of an upward movement, has proved deceptive, and the “bull” looks with a species of consternation on the fact thata new government has been so quickly and peacefully inaugurated, and that the confidence of the people in the change is shuwn by an advance Bince Saturday of 134 per cent in the premium of the French loan, the price at which it is now quoted being 4% a 4% percent. To be added to ‘this is the easicr condition of the London money market, As has been iterated before, there is no basis for the movement whatever, and there is Ukely to be none until the Fall, when some PR NEW CHANGE OF SCHEDULE may possibly expose the purpose of the combina- tion. The market opened at 1183. The price im- mediately afterwards temporarily touched 118%, when it receded @ point, and therealter remained firm between the extremes of 14a}. The rates paid for carrying were 5, 4, 6 and 8 per cent to flat for borrowing, The transactions of the Gold Ex- change Bank are shown by the following table:— Gold balances... + $2,297,839 Currency balance: + 2,718,681 Gross clearances. +++ 74,584,000 The Assistant Treasurer to-day paid out $65,000 on account of interest aud $5,000 in redemption of five-twenty bonds, The fluctuations ‘were as iollows:— of the market during the day 118% 118% 11835 asury to-day Gold receipts $508,085, Gold pa; 217, 404 Gold bal 41,255,208 Currency receip' 260,482 Currency payments f Ourrency balances 22,898,482 Receipts from cust tom House, + 809,000 RAILROAD BONDS continue, with few exceptions, to accord with the last quotations, and transactions are compara- tively limited, Erie thirds brought 100; Michigan sinking funds, 10234 ; Union Pacific land grants, 743 ; Chicago and Northwestern first mortgages, 101; New York and New Haven sixes, 100; Rock Island sevens, 104, The following are the bids as amended at the calli New York Cen 6%, r¢.. 87 New York Con 6's, sub... $i New York Cen 7s, '7 Eric 2d m T's, "79 Del, Lack & 24 m.... 99 Bel Lack AW 7's cof 12 o m ox.

While stocks presented no fairer aspect than has been recorded of them for several days past, the general impression among the long headed men of the street, who balance probabilities and possi- bilities with scientifio nicety, is that prices have touched bottom and a reaction will be teltwithina few days, With money abundant and easily available until everybody has returned from Summer jaunts; with the telegraph radiating from Wail street to every important watering place where brokers and bankers most do congregate; with an inherent disposition on the part of every operator to be “doing something" on Change, although ne may be distant haifa hundred miles, it is argued that it would be unnatural for values te be main- tained the Summer through at existing rates. A speculative ripple may, therefore, be looked for soon, although it may not assume the proportions of a wave until later in the year. In the general dulness that prevailed to-day it is dificult to select any one feature which more than another is worthy of mention. The market was steady in tone, but transactions were limited. Pacific Mail, usual, took its place among the active stocks. It opened at 4534, vibrating until the close of the day between that figure and 45%, it touched 46, abd at the last quotation it went of 34. Western Union was firm between the ex- tremes of 84% @ 8535, the average during the day being about %. Eries were likewise steady, bor- rowing firmness from their sisters on the other side, The stock opened aot 62%, advanced to 6354, but receded and closed at 63%. Lake Shore was steady at 903, a 90%. Harlem touched 130%. Rock Island showed but a fractional fluctuation of 3 per cent. . Delaware, Lackawanna and Western held its own at 103} 9 103%. ©., C. and I.

Business was moderate in nearly all tts depart- ments to-day, while in some prices tended Yn favor of the buyer. Cotton remained dull, while bread- stuffs were quiet and weak.
