The shipments are indifferent; there bas been no “squeeze” in cash goid; the quotation | Of 116% was steadily maintained throughoat the day without excitement or pressure, and in short | the Board appear to ve simply respouding to the belief expressed by many of its membors weeks ago, that some time during the year, unless a European war should intervene or a great fvreign | @emand be created for Amorican products, our gold would be called upon to balance ‘accounts | and “fli the gap” in tue commerce between tunis and other couatries. It remains to be, geen wheter this thought is a true one. What we owe abroad cannot Ways be paid in the currency which we so deftly circalate at home. Repeated default has | shaken the faith of tne toreign investor, and he wil hencefortn require something more than a me: written “promise to pay.” The opening and Close of the murket to-day was 1164, with in- termediate sales at 1164 and 116}.
