FINANCIAL AND CONMERCLL. Markets’ on Both Sides of the Atlantic Dull and Inactive. Why United States Bonds ‘Are Strong Abroad. THE ENGLISH BANK RATE. Exchange Near the Shipping Point of Gold. The Stock Exchange Empty—Everybody: at the Yacht Baee, Governments Steady and in Good Demand. SPECULATION ON AN EBB TIDE. MONEY EASY. Statement of the Public Debt for May. WALL STREET, THURSDAY, June 5—6 P. M. @n "Unange to-day cotton was im moderately fair @emand, and while ‘spot’ ruled steady “futures’” were Cc. a 3-16c. lower. Flour was dull and lower. Wheat and corn were active, but also lower. THE FOREIGN MARKET. No advices were received from London throwing additional light upon the cause of yesterday’s ad- ‘vance In the rate of discount of the Bank ef Eng- land. It does not appear that any sum sufficient to materially disturb the balances has been with- drawn, or that the action was induced by any- thing but a prudential foresight. British tunas closed quiet, consols for money at 92, with Ameri- an securities steady. The issues of 1865 sold at 91%, 1867's at 9144, ten-/orties at 88%, new fives at 89% and Eries at 48%. It is a significant character- istic of the London market that through all the ex- citement pertaining to financial derangements as ‘the result of revoiution in France, war in Spain, ancertainty in Italy and financial weakness else- where, confidence in United States government securities has steadily enhanced, and, as a class, they are to-day stronger than any others knewn abroad, The truth 1s that, notwithstanding our sudden panics and monetary convulsions, experi- enee has shown the existence of a substratum of substantial values, of a power in public #aith and of a richness in the mine of public credit and public resource that makes an American security worthier than even the vaunted consoles of the Bank of England itself. It ie said that £65,000 sterling was withdrawn from the bank to-day, making a sum total of £215,000 for the week. In our own country this would be re- garded as a mere fiea-bite among the influences that affect Nuctuations, and without further knowl- edge it is unwise to predict that so slight a reduc- ‘tion in the balance of the great bank has had any effect upon te-day’s operations. The Frenen loan ‘was at a premium of 626%; per cent, and in Paris rentes were bnoyant at 57.10. The rate of discount for three months’ bills in open market in London is % per cent below the bank rate, and the Yate for money on government securities is % per cent lower at the Stock Exchange than at the ‘Dank. THE MONEY MARKET. Money is in abundant supply and lowered freely ‘on call securities at from $to 6 per cent. The mar- ket rather favoring the borrower. The discount on prime mercantile paper was unchanged. Exchange Was a shade higuer, in fact has nearly touched the shipping point of gold. Late in the gay the leading bankers advanced their rates to 109}, for sixty days, sterling, and 110% for short sight, concessions being made. for actual business. The receipts from Customs to-day amounted to $453,000. The Assistant Treasurer paid out $44,000 on account of interest and $688,000 in redemption of 5-20, bonds. ‘reasury balances at the close of business to-day we Carreney: * Gertiticates Internal revenue iP GOLD STHADY—118 4 117 It was the prevailing impression among the bull operators to-day that if their little army had not been weakened by the absence of those intent on enjoying the pleasures of yachting gold would have mounted to a higher figure than has been recorded for several Gaya, The reason assigned for this elie! is based on the character of the bids made at the sale of the government gold, the a@geregate of which was about $6,735,000. Only $2,000,000 were sold, however, and the awards were made at from 117.83 to 116.0L, The seventeen bids made show an active demand, and it was argued ‘therefrom, by the most sanguine of the operators, ‘that specie is entering upon a new phase and that ‘the prospects of a “squeeze” are more encourag- ang. The thought gathers iorce, perhaps, from the zeported fact that England, being short.of bullion, 4s more than anxious for.an export irom America. To-day’s steamers took out $132,000 in specie. The Muctuations of gold at the Exchange were as per cent, the high rates of exchange doubtiess exerting Do small induence. CLEARING HOUSE STATEMENT.

Ifa foreign banker desires to purchase a large amount for the purpose of filling an order from Germany, England or Scotland, where these securities are being largely sought as permanent investments, he-is obliged, using @ street phrase, to “scrape the market,” not only of New York, but of Boston-and other commercial centres, and he adjudges it good luck if at the present time he can garner from the field a million, Suck'a fact as this is-all:potent, for it i# tribute from the peoples of the old world to the stability of the to the nancial strength and energy which, Heine mite than nee years, have wiped ‘out upwards of $350,000,000 of public debt, and is yet moving successfully on to the solution ef a ‘prob- lem that has disturbed the fnanciers of the mother country for almost three-quarters of @ cen- tury, The following are She ancnpens ofthe Soy e> ‘United States currency sixes, 113% @ 1133¢; do, aixes, 1881, registered, 115% & 116%; do. do,, do., Coupon, 1223; a 122%; do, five-twenties, registered, May and November, 116% a 117 ; do, do., 1862, coupon, @o., 116% a 117; do, do., 1864, do., do., 116% @ 1175 Go. d0., 1865, do., do., 11834 @ 118%; do. do, 1862, Tegistered, January and July, 1153, 0 115%; do. do,, 1865, coupon, do., 1193 a 119%; do. do., 1867, do., O,, 121% & 121%; do. do., 1868, do., do., 12034 @ 120% ; do. ten-forties, registered, 112% @ 112%; do. do., coupon, 1143 9.114%; do. fives, 1881, regiatered, 115 @ 11534; a0. do. do., coupon, 115 @ 115).

Secretary Richardson, bringing his report down to the close of business in the Treasury Depart- ment on the 3ist of May, makes the following ex- hibit:—The debt Dearing interest in coin is $1,747,305,950, the unpaid interest on which is $35,104,198, The debt bearing interest in lawful money, embracing 4 per cent certificates of indebt- edness and the 3 per cent navy pension fund, is $14,678,000, the unpaid interest on which is $181,780. The debt.bearing no interest, consisting of legal tenders, certificates of deposit, fractional currency and coin certificates, amounts to $460,932,864. The total.debt, therefore, on the 3ist of May last was $2,225,073,084, besides an interest due of $35,669,004, or an aggregate of $2,260,742,980. There was in the Treasury at the time specified— Coin.... $75,588,316 Currency. 6,065,799 Special ith 29,125,000 Making a total of. ++ $110, 779,115 ‘The decrease of the debt during the month of May was $3,525,282, The decrease of the debt since the 1st of March, 1873, has been $7,416,827, while from March 1, 1869, to March, 1873, the sum total was $368,082,539, THE STOCK MARKET. Never in the history of the oldest habitue of Wall treet has such a day of unmitigated dulness been witnessed as this. The Stock Exchange appeared to have surrendered “horse, foot and dragoons” to the superior attractions of the lower bay, and the clerks in nine offices out of ten seemed to enjoy supreme satisfaction in announcing, with idle nonchalance, that their chiefs had ‘gone to the yacht race, sir.” The little that was done, there- fore, showed the absence of that vim which usually marks the operations of the street and makes up in elocutionary emphasis whatever may be lacking in actnal trade. The feature of the day was a repetition of the same old story concerning Pacific Mail, and, in the absence of the great guns of the market, the skirmish line manipulated the prices in their own way. From the quotations below it will be observed that Pacific Mail divided with Western Union and Erie THE HONORS OF THE DAY, and that the transactions were chiefly confined to these \three stocks, The former opencd at 404, ascended % on the scale, but at the first board dropped to 40, and then to 39%. It recovered, how- ever, and was firm at the close of the day at 40% a 40% 240%. Western Union sold at 84% a 84% a 84%. Erie vibrated between 62a 623%. New York Central sold at 101 8 101% @ 101% @ 101}. Boston, Hartford and Erie, 2%. Lake Shore showed a differ- ence of only % per cent during the day. Rock Island was steady at 1093; a 109%. St. Paul ditto at 644% a 54%. Ohio and Mississippi moved from 40% to 414%. Union Pacific changed in extremes ently % percent. ©., 0. and I. C. retains its recent figures at 31% a 31%. Northwestern preferred was firm at 85, Business, however, was tame in the extreme, withoet any shaping influences ap- parent in ether an upward or downward direction. At the annaai election of THE CANTON LAND COMPANY at Baltimore to-day the following gentlemen were elected directors for the ensuing year :—William B. Duncan, James H. Banker, 8. L. M. Bartow, J. Mer- tena, of L, Von Hoffman & Oo., all of New York; and G. 8. Brown, of Brown Brothers & Co.; C. J. Baker, Mr. Harrison, President of the Union Rail- road; Mr. Belt, President of the Corn Exchange, and Mr. Weber, all of Baltimore. The elections in the West have taken away a considerable number of leading gentlemen from the street, and we probably shall not have the re- sult of their labors for a day or two. A general as- sault along the line, however, is predicted soon after their return. The New York Central and Rock Island elections resulted in the re-election of the retiring directors. Commodore Vanderbilt re- mains Preaident of the former and John F. Tracy of the latter. The Chicago and Northwestern election is now in progress at Chicago, and that of the Milwaukee and St. Paul will take place on Saturday.

Tuurspay, June 5—6 P, M. The trade movement was still slow to-day, and merchandise quite generally tended in favor of the purchaser. At the Produce Exchange there was afurther collapse of grain, and a further impor- tant decline. Flour was dull and exceedingly dimi- cult of sales in lines, Wheat was active, but rather lower. A large business was done, mostly on the basis of a decline of about one cent per bushel. Corn was also active, but with heavy receipts of unsound the market was de- moralized, and prices went down from 3c. to 5c, per bushel, chiefly on inferior, at which a large business was consummated. There was no strictly prime corn worth speaking of on sale. Oats were irregular and lower to sell. Whiskey was firmer. Pork remained quiet and lard was a shade easier. Naval stores were lower and freely offered at the decline, the market closing irregu- lar. Petroleum was quiet, excepting for crude, in which there was s large business transacted, and the market was firm. Groceries were generally quiet, sugar being the only exception to the rule. Prices were quoted steady. Cotton was in moderate demand and steady for spot, but easier tor forward delivery. Corrzz.—The market continued quiet for lots from first hands, but we notice no essential change in prices, The distributing business was only moderate. We quote :— be. ¥ BSc. a BOC.

Naw York, June 5, 1873, a % gr BROWN. + +___—__ REAL ESTATE MATTERS, It was supposed shat the second sale. of {White- stone property, which was held yesterday at the Exchange, would be better than the one held last, week, but-such was not the case. Although the at- tendance was good, yet the bidding was slack, and the assemblage manifested very little spirit. The general opinion prevails that on account of the poor prices obtained the major portion of the lots offered were bought in by the parties in Interest, Messrs. Muller, Wilkins & Oo. conducted the sale, un- der the direction of Mr. George W. Van Siclen, at- torney. At private sale there seems to be considerable activity. A prominent actor and author made an offer of $120,000 yesterday, through Mr. John McClave, for a full front on Riverside Park from 100th to 101st street, which offer was refused. This is a true indication of the enhanced value of West End Tg at a iiitam H.

A HERALD reporter called on Superintendent Matsell yesterday tn regard to the enforcement the Professional Criminals’ act adopted by the last Legislature. The superintendent of Police was aG his desk, which was covered with returos of ar Fests, petitions for permisston to hold processtens, Teports of captains and other documents. He looked haje and hearty. “You see that lam vers busy,” the Chief said, asking the reporter to taker ‘weedy “but I shall be happy to ‘converse with you.: I am ,)doing all I) can to entorce the act. rigorously,, 1 was sworn inon a l'riday. On Saturday I issued.a verbal order in regard to this master, end sday or two afterward i sent & ‘written’ order, as Well as @ copy of the act, to all the captains. My order was that they should follow these thieves, even, if, they. would keep ous of aight, into thelr dens; that they should follow mn wherever they went, and drive them out of evel place in which they found them. They hava already brought me numbers of these thieves,” thd Superintendent pursued, ‘and I always tell them— if the evidence is not sumMicient to convict them, you know—that this atmosphere will be sode< cidedly unhealthy for them that I should advise them to leave. I tell them that I mean to make it, so uncomfortable for them here that they, will pre~ fer any other place to New Yerk. Thieves wha have been arrested.under this act are brought to. me every day. We take them where there is © crowd, ang arrest them and send them up.” REPORTER—How many have been am rested ander thigact ? SUPERINTENDENT—It would be impossible for m to give you the exact number, but I suppose wi en averaged for the last two weeks ten a day— a, about ten, 1 should judge. You see. there's Great rivalry between the Men on osts, the ward letectives and the ee here at headquarters.
