GOLD 114 1-8 A 114 1-4. Money Easy at 3 and 4 Per Cent on Call— Popularity of Government Bonds— Railroad Bonds Firm. WALt Street, Wepnespay, March 1—6 P. M. As we intimated in to-day’s issue, bulls have browsed in sackcloth and ashes, as the Lenten fast seemed to require, Nor did their garments bear the artistic cut of Pool or the “chick” of a swell New York artist, but were rather of the slop, sloppy. In a word, the drop im the favorites scarce left a shirt to their back, and Butler's “Nothing to Wear’? was for once less poetic than true. It 18 possible that bovines, as a rule,’do not get themselves up in full suits of guony bagging; it may be even doubted whether the lilies of | the fleld were more gorgeous than Solomon in his kingly—we make a metaphorical statement and call upon Darwin tor a theoretical reply. At least one thing !s certain: there was plenty of | | ‘bull beef in the market to-day at merely nominal prices. And this is the way it came about. Business opened with sales of Western Union, Lake Shore and Pacific Mail at last night's figures, and for a time there sudden demonstration against the latter stock re- versed the confident feeling and a general decline took place. Pacific Mail stock 1s as unlucky as its ships, and 1s constantly getting into some unfortunate scrape or | other. It fared us usual to-day, for after having worked its way up to 20% as the “Alpha” of its rises it next fell to 2534 us its “Omega,” although, alphabet!- cally speaking, i( closed, say at “Omicron,” which, to iMustrate, may be considered Greek for 26%. Of course there were all sorts of reasons-given out for this disas- tous fall, and the ‘Committee on Canaras”’ despatched many a half-tledged bird of ill omen from its nest with ihe tidings under its wing. 1n plain language the reports and rumors concerning Pacific Mail were about as follow: It was stated that the notes of the company would (0 to protest to-day; that a receiver would immediately de applied for; that Gould had gotten out of his long Stock at from 89 to 35, and was now short of it, and that the Panama opposition was a foregone conclusion. While all but the last may be louked upon as some- what problematical we are assured that the reterence to the new opposition line has assumed the position of 8 fixed fact, and that the steamer South Carolina, the pioneer vessel of the “Panama Transit Company,” will sail to-morrow by way of Cape Horn to Panama and £an Francisco, A vessel to follow will be despatched in proper time to reach Aspinwall as the South Carolina reaches Panama, and, with the transfer of cargoes over the railway, will cotumence in reality the new line and & consummation of the long threatened opposition. In consideration of all these “doleful dum, ‘with the addition of Jay Gould hovering, vulture-hke, over the market, what wonder that Pacific Mail should show itself as weak us one of its own fleet of vessels? The same power which showed its authority in Pacific Mail was prominent in Western Union, with the result of selling the shures down from 701, to 69, although the pressure was slightly removed at the end. At one time things looked blue enough, and might have become ‘deeply, darkly’’ so had not the Twenty- third street party come to the rescue. This clique, at the supreme moment, feeling that charity covers a multitude of sins, and knowing that the seizure of an opportune moment is the time to cover a multitude of atocks, rusbed to tne’ rescue with a purchasing power that checked the downward impulse for to-day at least. Lake Shore, though comparatively active, only parti- cipated vicariously in the exciting performances of its bigger brothers. Erie kept a sti!’ upper lip and hardly deported from 1844 as a standard quotation—a firmness, it is said, due to some wild idea of funding past due coupons and paying off its debt without the outlay of a single cent. 8 something of a gain in prices; but a | result of the road on the opposite | which also sails to-morrow, bas $250,000 engaged in American gold coin. ‘The steamship Russia, sailing for Europe thts morn- ing, took out oply $8,000 in silver, the $100,000 gold engaged yesterday having been withdrawn. THK UNITED STATES TREASURY. The public debt statement for February shows a reduc- tion of $3,272,000. Treasury balances in connection with debt statement:—Currency, $9,500,000; coin, $70,000,000; coin certificates, $32,750,000, The As- sistant Treasurer paid out to-day $1,024,000 gold on account of interest, and $104,000 in redemption of five- twenty bonds, i Bank notes received to-day, $500,000; revenue re- ceipts, to-day, $330,000; customs receipts to-day, $250,000, ‘ THR MONEY MARKET. Money closed easy at 3 per cent after loaning up to 4 per cent on cajl. Foreign exchange was firm this after- moon, and closed at 4.85% 04.86 for bankers’ sixty days’ sterling and 4.893; a 4.89% for demand, BXCHANGE ON NEW YORK TO-DAY.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES. Investment securities were somewhat in sympathy with the stock market, Delaware and Lackswanna sold at 118, Albany and Susquehanna at 103, New Jersey Central at 106% a 107, New York Central at 118% a 115%, Rock Island at 1104, Illinois Central at 102, Cleveland and Pittsburg guarantecd at 9434, Pitts- burg and Fort Wayne at 103 a 1024.

Tho recent decline abroad has elicited a demand from home investors, who are availing themselves ot cheap money and cheap bonds, It is a curious fuct that nearly all of the bonds at present prices, if permitted to run their entire ten- ure or lease upon the public confidence, will, at the end of the same, be found to bave paid only about 4 per cent. A bond paying this interest, therefore, and authorized by Congress for fifty years, ought to take its place among the most popular gov- erpmental securities of Christendom, The fact re- ferred to ts conspicuously true of the fives of 1881 and the currency sixes. The first have thirty-five years and the latter twenty years to run, The close was steady at the following quotations:—United States cur- rency sixes, 127 a 127%; do. do., 1881, registered, 123 0 12344; do. do., do., coupon, 12334 a 123%; do. five-twenties, 1869, registered, 117% a 1184; do. do, do., coupon, 117% a 118%; do. do., new, registered, 119% a 119%; do. do., do, coupon, 11933 a 110%; | do, do,, 1867, registered, 1213; a 12154; do. do, do, coupon, 1213¢ a 12134; do. do., 1868, registered, 12334 a 124; do. do., do., coupon, 12334 a 123%; do. teu-for- | ties, registered, 1183; a 118%; do. do., coupon, ex-in- terest, 118% a 1103, ; do. fives, 1881, registered, 118% a 1187% ; do, do, do., coupon, 118% a 119.

The granger stocks stili hold their own stubbornly, | Mough the influence of courts and Vance’s bills is | among things of the past.
