The money market, which had ruled at 6 and 6 per vent for several huurs, suddenly tightened up about ‘wo o'clock when a report was circulated that the affairs of the Bank of the State were ina worse condi- Mon than bad been anticipated.

The most important event of the week, perhaps, commercially considered, was breadstuife, which became quite active and occasioned a | marked advance in prices. The bulk of the stock of availa- | bie wheat is, as we bave before mentioned, in the hands of j strong parties, and the fact that prices | sustained through the winter is undoubtedly | to this fact. All through the winter the first appearance of | anything like an active inquiry has proved the signal for an | summer, and the muri advance in prices, and the same has proved true of the past | week, so that we find that # substantial advance has been | established since the close of last week.
