THR MONRY MARKET. ‘There is nothing to be added to the statements concerning money, which have been almost stereo- typed for several days past. The supply is still @bundant, with general rates at 3 and 4 per ceat » @nd discounts of prime paper at 6 and 7 per cent. Time loans ranged from 5 to 7 tor gold, for sixty days to six months. Foreign exchange was firm on the basis of Saturday—to wit, 1095; a 109% for prime sixty days bills and 1103; a 11034 for sight. Slight concessions were made fiom the above . prices for actual transactions. THE FOREIGN MARKET, London advices to-day report a steady market ‘ for consols and American securities, without much - activity. Consols for money were quoted at 9234 a 0234, for account, 925; fve-twenty bonds of 1865 (Old) at 9896 ; do, of 1867 at 035; ; new fives at 90% 5 Wario at 46% a 47 for new accownt; Ilinols Central was a shade firmer at 86 448. The new French loan was steady at 6% a 6% per cent premimm. ¥o-morrow is ticket day, and Wednesday, the iéth dnst., 18 settling day at the London Stock Ex- whange.

GOLD FIRM AT 1157 u 116, ~The situation in the gold market remains un- changed, the tone being still strong, and, if predic- tions are to be believed, the tendency upward. Who class is growing smaller who repose confi- ence in any permanent decline of price in the face o1 the facts and figures that are dally coming to light concerning the condition of the country ‘and the manngement of its finances. On the other hand a very considerable proportion of the men of Wall street, who do their own thinking, recognize in the entire movement of gold the result not ‘more of speculation than of the appilcation of those commercial laws which regulate values @uring periods of scarcity or the reverse. That .gold is scarce in America is o fact not requiring flemonstration. That itis scarce in the vaults of sthe United States Treasury at Washington is sug- ‘gested by the sending of ofiicials to San Francisco ‘to secure what may be on hand there, That ‘the balance daily reported irom the national Sapital correctly represents the real amount Available is a fact that has been greatly questioned. So that, allin all, the operators on the bull side of the market are fortifded by an un- answerable argument, and will probably live and fie in the faith engendered by their figures, The Gactuations of the market to-day are shown by the following table :— ‘ALL STREET, } 15% 1:20 P.M 2:40 P. M. The operations of the Gold Exchange Bank to-day ‘were as follows:— Gold balances. Ourrency balances. The rates paid to-day for carrying were 33, 3, 4 and 4% percent, The total outflow of specie last week was $4,124,588. It is stated the engagements Gor this week already amount to $1,500,000, THE UNITED STATES TREASURY. The following were the balances in the Treasury @t the close of business to-day :— Ourrency. os $7,950,000 Coin.... 330,000 Certificate: + 43,250,000 The customs receipts to-day were $349,000, The Assistant Treasurer paid out $200,000 on ‘account of interest and $41,000 in redemption of five-twenty bonds. From Washington it is semi-oficially announced that the Geneva award will be paid in United States vonds, thus avoiding any disturbance in exchange. The internal revenue receipts to-cay were $570,000. The estimated receipts ‘or the month of Salty are $9,500,000, RAILROAD BONDS. The prices of railroad bonds to-day reflected strength and sympathy with the remainder of the market; but the market was Lot notably active.

It is reported that it has been ascertained that the net earnings of Erie for six months show no dividend earned on either the preferred or com- mon stock, and: that the company may require a new loan of several millions in August or Septem- ber. Certainly depressing influences are at work both in England and America as reflected by the quotations for several days past. A portion of the weakness is alleged to be due to the recent change in the presidency of Lake Shore, The price opened at 6044 this morning, advanced to 603, but receded at the close to60, A rumor was current late in the day that Mr. S, L. M. Barlow intended to resign.

Tke offerings Were very limited, the receipts for the two days being unusually light. Tne market, ow- ing mainly to this causc, was almost nominal, par- ticularly for prime Spring. Corn was also scarce, and firmer in consequence, though the demand was moderate. Oats were strong. Whiskey was higher, though the reccipts were fair.

To-day an exhibit of the Registry Depart- ment is given, which will not oaly prove highly in- teresting to the reader, but will convey an adequate idea of itsimmense proportions. The Post Omce authorities have thrown every possible safeguard around the mode of transmitting money and valu- ables through the mails, and endeavor to make the Service ag efticient and conventent to the pubite as the most fastidiously inciincd can desire, and as this time the mail service of the United States wilt compare in-brighs contrast with that of the most favored nation of the Old Worla. The rapid increase of business in-the Registerca Letter Department of the Post Oiice has compelicd Postmaster James to rent the entire second door of the premises in Liberty street, adjoining the “old church” building, in order to accommodate, ita growing needs. Carpenters and masons have been at work for several days making alterations, and before the close of the week the addition will be ready for occupancy and use, Alarge proportion of the labor connected with this Department arises from THB REGISTRATION OF TIREE CENT AND OTHER STAMPS, ag well as stamped envelopes, supplied to all the post ofMices in the United States. It may not be generally known that all postage stamps and Stamped envelopes used in this country are manu. factured iu this city and from here forwarded to their various destinations. Before being sent to? the New York Post Oilice these are carefully put in packages and address * to the diferent post- Toasters who havo ordered them, They are them systematically registered—the same care being bestowed upon them as registered letters, reccipta S00 and taken by route agents, 40. There be.ng 33,000 post effices in tne United States, it will be seen that an immense number is required to be forwarded each day. In addition to this largely increasing work the abolition of the franking privilege necessitates the use of official postage stamps of different denominations which are supplied to the various departments of the government and ail post offices, These must be registered as well, and the additional labor consequent thereupon has called into requisition all the hands in other parts of the ofice who could be spared trom their regular work. Postal cards are also registered in transit to postmasters who have ordered them from the Post Ofiice Lepart- ment. REGISTERED PACKAGES IN TRANSIT average 125 dally; those addressed to Postmaster, New York city. average 450 daily, containg from 1,000 to 1,060 letters for city delivery and distribu- thon, About 300 letters are registered daily at the desk of the General Post Ottice and over 150 daily at the stations. Immense smuate se of gold coin and bullion from California pass th: this channel, and as no record is Kept of the vine enclosed in the letters no estimate can be formed of the great wealth passing through this Depart- ment, which must reach millions monthiy. THE RISE AND PROGRESS OF THE SYSTEM. Registration was anknown in this country pre- vious to 1840, Early in that > gael the system was" organized at the New York oilice, four clerks for considerable time being able to perjorm all the labor. The prejudice against the eos for several years, to register og yf being re- arded @ premium on Spoliation. In 1850 50,000 fotters were recelved and despatched. In 1862 the number had {ncreased to 180,900, At that time the fee was only five cents, the safeguards being deemed utterly insuMctent. 4 year later it was put at twenty eents, which secured to the sender @ receipt and advice afterwards of the faithful de- livery Of the letter, At present the fee is fifteen cents, which is exclusive of postage—three centa each halrounce, Early in June, 1867, the old im- secure way of registering was entirely abol- iahed and @ new system was introduced, hich has by constant improvement reached hd muti which removes all possible danger either from loss or tampering. ‘The principal feature ig the use of a package envelope (so Ge almost of the consistency of linen, in which the wi istered letter or letters are enclosed, the bro velope being addressed to the Postmaster of the place of destination and receipts for the same given and taken at each stage as It passes through the hands of postal clerks, postmasters, &c., until it ually Teaches its destination, the chain of pas ing complete from office to office at each one end. Where loss or delay occurs It will be ean ce it is no difficult thing to trace to the point of dereliction. FORRIGN REGISTERED LETTERS. The system is constantly growing in favor as® means for the transmission of bonds, valuable let- ters, &6,, to the various parts of Europe. The roportion of foreign letters received by the regia- red mall is still larger than those sent, Ratiway companies and cosporations generally use it ex- clusively in transit of matter requiring great fideil- ty and care, In 1850 only two steamers sailed a week, and the total number of registered lettera conveyed that year was ape Five steamers now sail each week, averaging 600 registered letters per steamanyp, Registered letters despatched by foreign ships from June 1 to June 28, 1873, 6,501; rae rc ee letters received by foreign steam from June 1 to June 23, 1873, 8,663; 1872, 6,742. s Is tho highest pertod of the year.
