FINANCHL AND COMMERCUL. The New Board of Direction of the Pacific Mail Company. wa Le Report of the Financial Condition--Union Pacific Still Weak. GOLD STEADY. STOCKS GENERALLY FIRM. The Foreign Market . Strong. MONEY EASY. Railroad Securities and Government Bonds in Good Demand. ACTION I THE TREASURY. Wau aoa WEDNESDAY, May 28—6 P, M. On ’Change to-day ‘spot’? cotton was dull and not quotably changed, while ‘futures’? were in fair request at sc, @ 3-16c. per 1b. improvement. Flour was dull and easier, Wheat was @ shade off and corn was steady. THE FOREIGN MARKET. The London advices give no cause for disturb- ance. American securities remain firm, and the financial, sympathy, as expressed by values, re- mains in perfect accord with the situation already Teported. Consols and United States bonds are steady and unchanged, and Erie holds its own at 485; and 49. The French loan was active and ad- vanced to 534 per cent premium, certifying toa : degree the confidence im the present French ad- ministration. Rentes were steady at 56f. 15c. Con- sols firm at 93% ; 1867's, 043¢ ; 10-40's, 8834 : new fives, $935 2 8944. The bullion withdrawn from the Bank of Engiand to-day amounts to £77,000, THE MONEY MARKET. There are no important changes to be recorded, Money commanded its {ull price—to wit, 5a 7 per cent for call loans, and 7a9 per cent for commer- cial paper. No exigencies operated to introduce ny change in the prices already named, and it does not seem likely that any will occur until later im the seasen. Long loans are sought and by some parties favored, but the suspicions with reference to the anticipated gold corner deter active busi- ness and unsettle calculations, so that it is well nigh tmpossible to take a prospective view of the market. Foreign exchange is unaltered and quoted With dulness at 10834 a 108% for prime bankers’ 60 days sterling, and 1093, a 109% for sight. The bul- lion movement from London to the Continent does not yet seem to be determined. Hence no drain outside of the small amount named above is re- ported, which it is at all probable will affect this market, GOLD STRADY—11834 A 11834. The clique continue to play their le, but there is no new development and no fact on which to base aprediction. The market was dull. It opened at 118%, advanced #4, declined +4 and afterwards re- covered, closing at the opening price. The rates paid for carrying were from 1 to Sper cent to “fat” for borrowing. The Sub-Treasurer paid out to-day $57,000 on account of interest. The outstanding legal tenders amount to $356,000,- 000, This 1s a reduction of $540,000 since yesterday. The Secretary of the Treasury has now all of the $44,000,000 which Secretary Boutwell claimed as a reserve. The following table will show the fluctua- tions of the murket during begs day 118% “1183; a 11844 The Treasury balances at the close of business to-day in Washington were :— + $3,800,500 + 74,800,000 26,650,000 , The currency shows a decrease of $700,000 since yesterday. The steamship Java, sailing for Europe to-day, took out $338,000 in silver bars. Advices from Washington state that the Treasury Department has decided to reduce the legal ten- ders outstanding to $356,000,000 by the ist of June. The Internai Revenue receipts amounted to $330,000, The transactions of the Gold Exchange Bank are recorded as follows:— Gold balances.. + $3,416,224 » Currency balances. 4,429,848 Gross clearances. + 111,705,000 RAILROAD BONDS.

THE STOCK MARKET. The public mind was prepared yesterday for what has followed to-day—namely, the reorganiza- tion of the Pacific Mail Company. The election took piace at noon at the company’s office, and resulted as follows :—151,602 votes were polled as representa- tives of the stock, and the large majority showed its confidence in the following ticket:—George H. Bradbury, T. W. Park, James D, Smith, Jonn M. Burke, Charles J. Osborn, Russel Sage, George 8. Scott, George H. Palmer and Rufus Hatch. It is generally believed that Captain Bradbury will be elected the President of the new directory. ‘Ihe stock exhibited its temper by opening at 417%, moving to 42, and alternately rising and falling on this average, finally stiffening at the last beard to 43% a@ 44 Union Pacific, which closed yesterday at 274, Opened at 25%, but recovered and maintained steadiness at an advance of 1 per cent, and towards the close called for 27%. C., C. and I. C. was firm at the extremes of 2934 @ 3034. Western Union showed a vibmation of about 1 per cent, opening at 8434, touching 853; higher, and receding at the close to 8474. No material change is to be noted in other, quotations, the attention of brokers being chiefly bestowed on the two named stocks, and no influences existing eithe! Gepreciate or advance the others. Take it all in all, beyond the fluctuations incident to and re- corded of Pacific Mail and Union Pacific, the day ‘was quite as dull as most of its predecessors for the ‘last fortnight, The statement submitted to the stockholders of the Pacific Mail Company, at the annual election to- day, exhibits the financial condition as follows :— Park end enll loans. . 1,000 U $10 ive por cent g Cash with agents and pursers, 647,061 1,873.201 £00 shares Panama R.

WEDNESDAY, May 28—6 P. M. ‘the trade movement continued slow as a gen- eral rule, but there were a few exceptions, There was more disposition to deal in wheat to arrive than had been manifest for some time, and as holders were more willing to meet buyers a fair business was consummated on a lower basis than has recently been quoted, the particulars of which will be found under the appropriate head. Corn ‘was strong under a fair demand and light receipts. Oats were without decided change. There was a decided break in whiskey, but a better business was done at the decline, The pork market was still dull and nearly nominal for round lots on the spot, while for forward delivery prices were a shade off, Lard was aiso lower and not active. Freights remained firm at unchanged rates. Gro- ceries were gencrally quiet, with prices ruling steady. Petroleum was nominally unchanged, Naval stores were in moderate demand and firmer. Cotton was quiet for spot, while futures were in fair request at a decline of }sc. a 3-16c. per Ib. APPLes.—There are very few choice apples in the market, and those offered command full prices.
