bad wv ad ye 1 bg i ‘6 > N ». FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. WALL STREET, ‘u} Torspay, June 8—6 PM La *Ohange to-day cotton on the “spot” was qi meee while “futures” were in fair request at I-léc. improvement. Flour ruled quiet, Wheat, corn and oats were in fair demand, but at decidedly \ower prices. THE FORBIGN MARKET, Yesterday the German govei nment was sématibes to be exceedingly dissatisfied with the aamin.gtra- tion of MacMahon. To-day France and England prove their dnancial firmness in the face OL this re- pert by bringing to us through the cable the follow- ing despatches :-- Consols, 02%, ex. interest; United Btates issues of 1867, 945 ; ten-forties, 8834 a 89; new fives, 8054 a 89%; Eries, 494; and the new French lean, 6% & 6} premium, , These figures cer- talmly do not portend a renewal of difficul- es between France and Germany. In these latter days of international trade a fraction of Wealth 18 more than equal toa volume of talk. Diplomacy has a kind of value that finds its meas- mre in dollars and cents, and it evidently requires @omething more than a mere telegram, though it may be inspired by a Bismarck, to overturn the existing monetary strength of France or any other country. Anation which can pay to @ conqueror {ts tribute by milliards, and which can command @ons and daughters patriotic enough to save one dollar for their government whtle making two for themeelves, will never be at fault in any of its international relationships, Why? Because it has achieved credit, and credit is the backbone of Christendom. Is may be added that £73,000 were to-day added te the bullion in the Bank of England, THB.MONEY MARKET, All the symptoms—and none are feverish or oubtfal—point to an easy Summer market. A large amount of money was to-day offered on time, with lower rates of interest, and a disposition to supply sapital in almost unlimited quantity. Prime dis- counts are quoted at 63g to 8 per cent, and call doans in open market at 4and 6 per cent. Foreign exchange was steady, the rates being about the game as yesterday, with actual business at 108% for prime bankers’ 60 days bills and 109% to 100% for sight. ‘The receipts from customs to-day were $362,000, The Assistant Treasurer paid out $153,005 on ac- count of interest and $15,520,000 on redemption of five-twenty bonds, The Custom House receipts for the week ending May 24 amounted to $2,700,000. ‘The exports from this port for the week ending to-day are $5,396,442. GOLD, 1175¢-117%. There has been a good deal of the triphammer Business attempted in gold to-day, but without other result than that which is recorded above, ‘The fact that certain parties have assumed the con- trol of the market, and are reported to have ab. ®orbed a metaphorical number of millions, acts like a@ Damascus blade, and the fear that the thread May be cut at any moment deters legitimate action. Xt is but natural for the buils to affect the belief that Secretary Richardson will in thirty or sixty days beim an uncomfortable position, and that they should advance a train of apparently reasonable circumstances leading up to such an event as an ‘excuse for their policy; but there is no present de- ‘velopment of facts which gives them substantial sup- ‘port, or warrants the assumption that at any time during the Summer gold will take to itself a value materially higher than that at which it is now quoted, The Autumn may witness some advance, but by that time the Secretary of the Treasary’ maintaining the same shrewd watchfulness over the market that is now being exercised, will, in @ll probability, be ablé to check any unhealthy movement calculated to seriously disturb the gen- eral market. While it is true that a large amount has already been absorbed by a few parties, it is equally certain that the latter are not in a condi, téon to encounter antagonistic elements and to make that speculative fight on which they have probably based their plans for the future. The his- tory of the movement now in embryo has yet to be written. The fluctuations of the market at the Gold Board were as follows:— iy «1:15 P. M. 11733 a iit f The rates paid for carrying were 5, 6, 4 and 3 per vent. The transactions of the Gold Exchange Bank were as follows:— Gross clearances... we en 2o08" fod EXPORTS. Itisagreeable to report a balance in our favor, though it be local and confined only to this port, because the trade of New York is the keynote of the country. The export trade of the port snows an utfow of produce and merchandise this week Of $5,396,442, against $3,702,647 for the cor- fesponding weex of 1872, and $4,162,140 in 4871. The exports of produce and merchandise from the port from January 1 to date are $116,725,078, against $88,540,185 in 1872, and $103,- 028,679 in 1871, The moment that we of the United States learn to make our means subservient to ends; to depend upon home rather than upon for- eign products; to enjoy domestic comforts more than imported luxuries; to cut down our bills for extravagant nonsense, and cast adriit from the social conventionalities that make moral and social @lavesof our men and women—just then, and not » @ntil then, shall we begin to live like a free and independent nation; to accumulate funds to pay oar public debt with ease, reduce prices, return to specie payments and enter upon the enjoyment of future possibilities that have no limit in the suc- cessful carcer of a great nation, RAILROAD BONDS, The market was not active, but remarkably jeady, partaking of the general good tone that ‘was manifested with reterence to otner securities. ‘The following are the bids mended at the call Del, pWabint are bie Tol’ Wab Ist m 96 Tol & Wab Istm, Sti La fur Gt Western 2d m, luincy & tol Ist, o Chic, R Horns & Essex Clev & Pitts 3d Clev & Pitts 4th hic & Alto Te D 885, To. beortanh War te * ‘ol ‘eoria ‘ar 2d im NY&N Bost, i f te Ist mis...

SOUTHERN SECURITIES, ‘Gusmess in Southern bonds remains Inactive. ‘@he condition of the Southern States, the action of the State Legislatures and the doubt that has been ‘thrown around these several securities by Courts and public reports have produced an unhappy influ- ence, 80 that while there may be many instances in which prudent investment would prodace posi- tive results, the plight which surrounds one or two classes of securities attaches to all, and general distrust has ensued, Hence it 1s that the state- ment in this column from day to day presents but little change from the same old story of dulness and unconcern.

The market of to-day cannot be said to be an im- provement upon that of yesterday, although 1¢ still shows a strong and healthy tone as compared with the weakness that might have been observed a few days ago. Western Union varied only about }¢ per cent. Erie went off a trifle, opening at 63%, selling as low as 62 at the close of the Second Board, but at last recovering to 63, New York Central fuctu- ated between the extremes of 101% a102, Lake Shore sold at 92%, 92%, 92%, 92%, 91%, 91%, recovering alter noon to 92, and clos- ing steady at 9234. Rock Island opened at 110% before the call, sold at 110%, 1103,, dropped to 110, then to 100%, but at the close re- gained its firmness and its last figure was 110%. Onto and Mississippi was steady, the vibration being only about % per cent. The same may be sald of Wabash, the extremes of which were 69% and 68%. C., 0. and I, C. was also in the category. Union Pacific opened at 275, but at the close scored an advance of 1 per cent. Delaware, Lackawanna and Western was firm at 1043; a 105. Harlem sold at 182; Boston, Hartford and Erie at 2 a 23; Illi. nois Central at 11034, 1113¢, 112, Pacific Mail re- mained in its speculative position as heretofore, | opening at 3834 and tossing about between this fraction and 39 until after one o'clock, when the price grew firmer, and closed at 393.

TuEspay, June 3—6 P. M. The merchandise markets were again dull and prices were quite generally lower. On ’Change the chief feature was another break in wheat, corn and oats, all of which closed at decidedly lower prices, and dull at that, Flour was a trifle more steady, but still dull, Wheat was pressed for sale and prices declined materially lower, the decline being general. There was some demand for shipment, and orders which could not be executed before were filled to-day. For forward delivery nothing was done to-day, but prices were nominally 2c. a 3c. below those paid the preceding evening. Corn was dull, and with free receipts, mostly not prime, pressed for sale at a marked decline. Oats were also dull and decidedly lower for all kinds. Whiskey was almost the only exception to the general dullness and depression on 'Change, prices being rather higher, There was almost no movement in pro- visisions, though pork was firm tor cash, Lard was easier. , Freights were strong. Cotton was quiet for spot, but in demand, and 1-16c. per Ib. better for futures. Groceries, with the exception of sugar, were quiet, but the market generally firm. Petroleum was neglected, but prices were nominally steady. Naval stores were quiet, and while spirits rated a shade better, rosin was nominally easier. East India goods were generally quiet but firm. Wool was in fair request, and the market steady. Asuxs—Receipts for the past three days 23 packages. Pots have met with a fair demand, and were steady at $8. Pearls remained entirely nominal.

At the meeting the special committee, to whom was re- ferred resolutions in regard to the improvement of the EFFICIENCY AND ECONOMY of the Department, reported the result of their labors, The members stated that they had given these subjects all their attention, and had arrived at the conclusion that the clerical force would stand reducing very materiaNy and with entire safety to the public interest, They had been utiable, they sald, to go through all the lists of clerks and employés, but so far ag they had gone they recommended that a reduction be at once made, and asked to be continued in the investigation. This request was made in the belief that a careful and prudent course should be pursued, go that the efficiency of the public service not be impaired, The fol- lowing resolution was submitted and adopted :— Resolved, That the services of the following named per- gona be iat once diapensed with :Charl worth, felegraph operator: Beth Hawley, Jr, Peter J.

The report recommended the dismissal of all surgeons attached to the Department on the 6th inst., and a resolution to that effect was immediately passed. In reality there were no medical men attached to the Board, for the charter legisiated them out of office ; but the Commissioners, no doubt, thought it necessary to make a clean sweep of all extra ser- vice up to a certain date. Drs. Thomas, Purdy and Henry were then ap- inted for duty at Police Headquarters to over- Hook the general health of the policemen, and see that no ‘impositions are practised on the De ment. To these gentlemen will belong th of examining all applicants for position on the force and the ordering of convalescents on duty.

The Commissioners of Emigration met yesterday afternoon at Castle Garden, President Hurlbut in the chair. There were present Messrs, Stephenson, Starrs, Kaufmann, Lynch and Forrest. After sev- eral communications had been laid on the table Mr. Kaufmann arose to call attention to the arbi- trary dismissal ofa man named Sexton, a steward on Ward's Island, who was removed by Mr, Ste- phenson, chairman of the Ward’s Island Committee, without the sanction of the Board. Mr. Kaufmann legraph operator; George ‘Buhler | was proceeding to speak about the removal when he was called to order by Mr. Stephenson, who sald that the Presidents of the German aud the irish societies had NO LEGAL RIGHT to speak or vote upon the removal of officers. At this Mr. Lynch jumped to his feet and said that they had a right and would exercise it.

It was charged that the sup) ply. of beet a week or two ago had been 2,000 pounds short, but the charge had not been proven, and Mr. Stephen- son had no right to act in the manner he did. Mr. enson retorted, and said he would remove when he had the right to do so, rence from anybody. Mr, Starrs, THE OTHER MEMBER of the Ward's Island Committee, disowned the action of his colleague. They had spoken about Sexton, but he was dismissed without his knowl- edge. Mr. Kaufmann moved that the Board dis- agree with the action of Mr. Stephenson in remov- ing Sexton. In seconding the motion Mr. Lynch called upon the Chairman to read the bylaws, which sustained Mr, Kaufmann, The motion was for the time being laid on the table. The Board then went into EXECUTIVE SESSION, at the conclusion of which it adjourned until next Tuesday, at two o'clock. ARRIVAL OF EMIGRANTS.
