Boston, June 19, 1809.
The, Inst concert of the great MuWl Festival
took place this morning at 11 o'clock, 'when the
chorus consisted of about 8000 children selected
from the Public and High Schools. Mr. Elch-
berg wus the conductor of the day, he being the
mufical Instructor In tho Boston Institutes of
learning, and it is duo to his admirable training
that fuch a fine entci'tiiinincnt was presented on
Saturday.
The concert opened with Rosnini'8 overture
to William Tell, plnycd by the orchestra of six
hundred, tho same musicians who played it at
the opening concert of the festival; this time,
however, under the baton of Mr. Kichbcrg, who,
1 regret to cay, made the sad mistake of taking
the last allegro by far too fast, so fast that it
was an Impossibility for the violinists to give
any effect to the figures occurring in it.
The second number of the programme was the
national air ''Hail Columbia," sung by tho chil
dren in unison with fine effect.
A chorus from Mercadantc's GV'raraen'.o fol
lowed; also very nicely given.
Miss Adelaide Phillips then sang the drinking
eong from Lucrczia ISorgia, which received an
uproarious encore.
Luther's Choral was next given by the chil
dren's chorus, and although the effect was not
quite the same as when sung a few days before
by the large chorus, yet considerable applause
greeted the performance.
Ole Bull followed with a violin solo, said to
have been '"The Mother's Prayer." This attcmpt,I
regret to say, must be set down as a failure, the
only one in the entire five days' performance. It
was impossible to hear a tone of Mr. Bull's
violin beyond the six front benches, and to
those sitting at the end of the hall the perform
ance was merely pantomimic.
The children then went through a course of
physical exercises, under tho direction of Mr.
L. B. Monroe. This was an exceedingly interest
ing part of the programme. The different
movements were performed by the children with
the utmost precision. A very fine part of this
performance was when, three tones being given,
the children sang the chord with a fine cres'
cerulo and decrescendo, eliciting immense ap
plause. The second part of the programme then
opened with Meyerbeer's "Coronation March,"
from the Fropliete, played by the entire band of
1100, showing a considerable improvement upon
the first day's performance.
Then came the gem of the day, the Russian
National Hymn, sung exquisitely by the chil
dren. Madame Parepa-Kosa followed with "Let
the Bright Seraphim," from Handel's "Samp
son," with trumpet obligato, by Mr. Arbuckle.
This elicited an encore. I have referred to this
performance in a former letter, and therefore
pass it with the mere remark that it was admira
bly done.
The children next sang a three part song, by
Rossini, "Wake, Gentle Zephyr," which was
given with fine precision.
Mine. Rosa and Miss rhillips then gave
Rossini's splendid duet, " Quis est Homo," from
Stabat Mater, in a manner as only two such
artists can perform it, and the great festival
concluded with the singing of tho One-hundredth
Psalm by the children. The audience
was large and enthusiastic, containing nearly
every member of the large chorus. I have for
gotten to mention that on Friday the following
circular was issued to the members of the chorus:
'National Fkace Jubilee, Boston, June 19. 1809.
The Superintendent of Chorus, In congratulating
the ladies and gentlemen of the Chorus upon the
glorious musical success Just achieved, desires to
express to them his high gratification at the cordial
sympathy and Bupport he has experienced from
them since our great project was first broached, and
to thauklthem.Tn the name of the association and of
the general public, not only for the power aud effec
tiveness with which the music has been rendered by
them, but Tor the good order aud perfect harmony
which, in a season of bo great excitement, has pre
valiil. 'Through your appreciative endeavors,the mnsica
pulse if a whole nation has been quickened as never
before. The vast numbers assembled, their unre
. strained euthusiasm, attest the interest awakened.
You have demonstrated beyond cavil the entire
praet'cablllty of producing, with a massiveness aud
grandeur approaching perfection, the works of the
great masters by a body of over eleven tliotuaiid per
onttern. The cultivation of musical taste, the de
veloped love for the noble and beautiful In art the
precious fruits of our enterprise will not be suffered
to decay. They must exert a powerful and abiding
Influence, and though to-day we separate, let It be
with bright anticipations of celebrating, under
equally happy auspices, future national jubilees,
aud ultimately of Joining in celestial harmonies with
the countless numbers who shall praise God forever
and ever. K. Toukjbk, Supt. of Chorus."
To-day, during the intermission, Mr. Oilmore
was presented, in the press room, on behalf of
the Jubilee orchestra, with a magnificont gold
watch and chain. Mr. Carl Gacrtner, of Phila
delphia, made the presentation speech, and Mr.
Gilmore rctnrned thanks in a few words. The
orchestral committee then gave three cheers for
Mr. CfLlmore.
After the performance a meeting of tho mem
bers of the press was held iu tho press room,
and a number of resolutions were adopted re
turning thanks to Mr. 8. R. Niles and the entire
Press Committee, to the authorities ot Boston,
to the Western Union Telegraph, and to the
Post Office Department for hospitalities and fa'
cilities extended. Shortly after this the meeting
adjourned, aud thus concluded the greatest
musical event of the age.
The question naturally arises, Was tho festival
a musical success ? Wo appeud the answer to
this from the Boston Fvst, as fully giving our
sentiments:
"Ninety-nine in every hundred enthusiastically

it would have been a irlirantlo. a levlathau success.

We are of the opinion that it was a success, all
things considered. No person not under hopeless
stultification, prejudice, or malice, will or can assert
aucht else. In this we do not wish to be understood
an aMiw.riina that there were no defects m t he per-
foimances that have teen given, for such we not

arid with but a single rehearsal preceding the
nuhiio Derforniance. achieved-wUl not any
candid and truthful man or weman admlt7-a triumph.
The obstacles to be surmounted, the dimcultles to be
encountered, at every step of an enterprise conducted
on so gigantic a scale, are to be considered in passing
judgment. The chorus represented more than eight
hundred orgnniratlonH, and the orchestra and band
many hundred societies, nearly all of whom met for
the first time. It is true that the choral forces had
rehearsed In their own respective localities, extend
ing over thousands of miles, but only once in a mass
together. W ho can have the effrontery, to use the
lightest phrase, when these matters are taken In
view, to charge upon the enterprise the libel and
slander of failure? None, surely, who had not pre
determined so to do. Circumstance, fact, reason,
conscience, have no place in the mind and feeling
of such. At all events, the distinguished projector
of the Jubilee and his laborious associates need not
fear to go boldly upon the record. That record
will be success. Its history Is written In the
golden lines of assured fact. It cannot be set aside
by caprice, malice, or misrepresentation. It is to
stand out in It magnificent proportions not be
cause It has the honor of having culminated in
Boston, but on Its own many-sided and substantial
merits. There It Is. There It will remain memo
rable, grand, glorious. It was imperfect, it had
its glaring and unpleasant errors and shortcomings;
viewed from a cold-blooded critical standpoint, it did
not reach the altitude of a high standard ; but setting
all this aside, there were so many unquestioned
beauties, such signal triumphs from day to day, such
positive achievement of combination and organiza
tion in melodious power and strength, that it seems
a perversion of cr.ticlsm and an insult to truth to
withhold the compliment of generous praise."
C SHARP.
political!
The Ncwburyport (Mass.) Herald suggests
Secretary Jioutwefl as a candidate for the Presi
dency. The Washington correspondent of tho New
York Express says that Hon. Thomas L. Tul
lock, the appointing officer in tho Treasury De
partment, was a Copperhead during the war,
and Navy Agent at Portsmouth under Buchanan.
This information will astonish his Now Hamp
shire friends. Mr. Tullock was one of the or
ganizers of tho Republican party in that State,
and to his labors have been largely due tho uu-
parallclcd victories of tho party "during tho past
seventeen years. Mr. Tullock was Postmaster
at Portsmouth under Taylor and Fillmore, and
Navy Agent under Lincoln until the office was
abolished. For several years he was Secretary
of State of New Hampshire.
The Atlanta JVeto Era notices the unac
countable absence of Robert Toombs and B. II.
Hill while the question of the negro's eligi
bility to office was being argued before the
Supreme Court of Georgia, although upon the
stump during the last campaign they were most
eloquent and exhaustive in their appeals to the
white people of the State to stand up for their
"rights."
General Washburne, tho Republican candi
date lor Governor of Vermont, is a successful
lawyer of Woodstock. He served as colonel of
a Vermont three months' regiment at the begin
ning of the war, aud then, being elected by tho
Legislature to tho office of Adjutant and Inspector-General,
held that office to the end of
the war. As a legislator, he has had experience
iu both houses of the Legislature.
Hon. Homer W. Hen. ton, the Democratic
candidate for Governor of Vermont, is a lawver
und long a citizen of Montpclier. Ho Las
served in both houses of the State Legislature,
and has held the office of State Attorney. He
has been a life-long Democrat.
Hon. John F. Dillon, Chief Justice of Iowa,
was renominated at the late Republican State
Convention, and in accepting said: "Let me say
that this rcnomination is grateful to me not
only because of its indorsement of my course in
the past, not only because of its unanimous be
stowal, but also because it comes Jrom tho re
presentatives ot tho party witu which, 1 have
been identified in feeling, in conviction, and in
action ever 6ince its first organization. It is a
party whose glorious history, whose noble
achievements tor man and his rights, whose
conquest for rational freedom will never be for
gottou while there remains on the broad greeu
earth one heart whose aspirations are true to
the sacred cause of human liberty and equal
rights.
llie Augusta (ua.) unronicie ana sentinet sees
only evil to How from the decision of the Su-
reme court ot that state mat negroes are engi
ne to office. It says: "The deed is done.
Georgia is dragged down to the lowest depths iu
the slime and filth of Radicalism at least so far
as the exercise of the high places of tho State by
unlettered negroes is concerned. For a season
we must submit to our fate. Let all true men
wait and watch and work for tho speedy ap
proach of that good day when their children's
patrimony, now lea upon by dogs, will ue re
turned to the true owners, and the government of
the State restored to its rightful proprietors."
1 he correspondent ot the Richmond Whig
saw Colonel John 8. Mosby at a political mcet-
2 in Lcesburg, Va on the 14th inst., aud no
ticed him moving from group to group on the
court green, urging the people to vote tor
Walker aud the expurgated Constitution. Sub
sequently the correspondent met mm, and in a
conversation Mosby said: "Yes, a year ago I
swore I wouldn't register, but I now think dif
ferently, and had rather be right than consistent.
Then we had our own judgesf our own county
officers, and no one of them was required to
take the iron-clad oath. Negro suffrage cannot
possibly impose upon us a worse man than
Wells, 'and by voting down tho Constitution,
you vote to disfranchise yourselves, and to keep
the Mate under tue rule ot carpet-baggers, u or
myself, I surrendered four years ago, aud
thought I did it in good faith, in April, 18(15. I
have found no difficulty in bringing my judg
ment to the conclusion that it is the true policy
to adopt the course I now advise, but my pride
hem out some time alter my juagment was con
vinced. It now seems strange that any reasona
ble man can entertain a doubt ai ta his plain
duty."
MASSACRE.
AbyHNiiiliiiia Murder a. Party of Kngllnhiiien.
From further information received at Newport,
it appears that Mr. Powell was accompanied bv
a Mr. Maccree, a Scotchman, who also met with
the same cruel fate as the others forming the
party. In a communication dated the 7th May,
Sir. West, the Euglish Consul at Alexandria,
writes to Mr. Maccree's brother, giving a short
acconnt of the progress of the party previous
to the massacre. In this he states that Mr.
Maccree had taken Mr. Powell to a
rather dangerous part of the country, and
it would hnve been better if they had
gone iu another direction, where the party
would have been safer, the chiefs being more
friendly, and where equally as wood sport in
lion hunting might be obtalued. Then the con
sul admits that information has just been re
ceived of the cruel murder of Mr. Powell, Mrs.
Powell, their child, and Mr. Maccree, by the
natives. Two Swiss missionaries are said to
have brought tho news to the British authori
ties, and preparations were In progress to start
an expedition up the country in order, if possi
ble, to obtain further particulars. This letter
adds that unless prompt retaliation follows tho
brutal massacre, the natives will take courage,
and It will not be safe for any Englishman to
visit the country. Mr. W. II. P. Jenkins, a
brother of Mrs. Powell, Is, it appears, about to
go out to Alexandria, so as to make every pos
sible inquiry respecting the sad aft air,
AMERICAN DIPLOMATS. It is said that the
diplomatic representatives of the United (States rank
very low in the scale of national grandeur, being held
at the courts where they are stationed as Inferior
even to the representatives of Brazil. That Is very
goad, and we are glad of IU Our entire diplomatic
ssstem is a precious humbug, and Is kept up only to
give showy offices to politicians of the party In
Eower who can't be provided for at home. That true
icmocrat, the late CoL Benton, was always in favor
of abolishing all our foreign missions, as useless ex
crescences up n our republican form of government,
leaving their work to be done by consuls, and in case

The steamship Merrimac arrived at New

dates to May 26. We are iadebted to Dr.
Wheeler, the attentive purser, for late.flles.
The matter of most interest transpiring iu
Brazil has been the imbroglio between General
James Watson Webb, the United States Minister,
and the Brazilian Government.
Un the 28th of April tho Brazilian Minister of
Foreign Affairs, to get rid of paying the whale
ship Canada claim, refused to recognize the in
structions of Mr. Seward to General Webb, be
cause Mr. Seward had not advised the Brazilian
Minister in Washington of 6uch instructions.
A sharp correspondence ensued. General
Webb remonstrated in vain, and ou the 10th of
May he suspended diplomatic relations nud de
manded his passports. His purports were sent
to him on the 12th instant. Great excitement
prevailed in Kio Janeiro, and the entire corres
pondence was published. The Correspondance
newspaper of the 17th says:
"The announcement of this unfortunate occur
rence has produced great excitement and alarm
among all classes of our people, nnd especially
among our commercial and monetary men, in
asmuch as the consequences cannot fail to be
very disastrous here, and very injurious to
Brazil's credit In Europe, where "she is known to
ue seeking a loan.
The following is published in the Correnpon-
aance ot me autu uit:
In our paper of the 12th inst. we gave quite n
lengthy synopsis of tho important facts that

diplomatic relations between the United States

rejected, but also his despatch to His Excellency
tieorgo Buckley Matthew, 11. 15. At. .Minister
Plenipotentiary of this court, on this subject, as

DISASTER.

Knenpn if the IninnCe.
Frum the Wilmington Cmnmercial of Saturday.
At about 10 o'clock this morning the rear por
tion of the four story brick store and dwelling at
No. 213 Market street fell to the ground. Tho
building was recently purchased by Caellc A
Brother, No. 214 (next door), and they had
stored a considerable amount of stock in tho
store and cellar. They wcro building an exten
sive addition to the rear of it, intending to run
the store through to King street. Tho walls were
being undermined and underpinned to allow of
the building of more substantial foundations,
and this was the cause of tho accident.
A colored porter named Perry Trusty, em
ployed by Capelle it Bro., with his family, con
sisting of his wife nud three children, one an
infaat, were living In part of tho house. Perry
was in the hardware store at work when he
heard the adjoining building begin to crack.
With nn exclamation of terror he rushed to the
front of the store, nnd then back along the long
hall of tho falling building, and up stairs to his
family. He caught up the baby from tho hod,
called to his wife to run with the children,
and rapidly followed her downstairs. His foot
had scarcely left the stairway when it fell with
a crash to tho ground, nnd as the family ran
through the entrv to tho street, tho part of tho
building which they had just left fell into a
shapeless wreck and ruin behind them. One of
the Cnpelle brothers also just escaped from the
building in time, and no one was hurt. Wo have
seldom been called to chronicle a more narrow
escape than that of the heroic Perry and his
iuuiily.
Tho fall has, of course, rendered much more
extensive building operations necessary, and the
loss by the accident will bo over 1500.
Terrible Kxplonlon nt Itiuitlev, Kngland.
The London Times of the 10th inst. contain
the following heart-rending account of a boiler
explosion, which was attended with consider
able loss of life:
A very disastrous boiler explosion, supposed
to have resulted in the death of not fewer than
twenty adults aud children, occurred yesterday
morning at the works of Messrs. Town & Son,
bobbin turners, nt Bingley, between Bradford
and Keighiey. The workshop of Messrs. Town
was situate on tho north bank of tho Leeds
and Liverpool Canal, and iu the rear of tho
National School, Park road, tho two buildings
being separated by the playground of the school.
The premises of Messrs. Town consisted of a large
workshop about fifteen yards long by fifteen iu
width, nnd two stories in height, boiler nnd engine-house
and olllces. The 'boiler-houses stood
between tho workshop and ollices, and over tho
latter were two rooms occupied as a dwelling by
Mr. J. Town, Jr. The explosion occurred about
ten o'clock yesterday morning. The boiler was
lilted from its base into the air, and fell a
shapeless , mass about forty yards off.
The works and cottages were levelled
with the ground, large. Vtones being hurled
long distauces. Workmen who were on the
building, persons iu the cottages and scholars in
the playground of the Natioual School were in
stantly overwhelmed and buried beneath the
ruins. A great number of willing hands imme
diately engaged in the task of disinterring those
who had been so summarily buried in the ruins,
and yesterday afternoon the result was reported
as follows:
Dead Mr. Town, Jr., two children of Mr.
Joseph Midglev, Park road, manufacturer; a
child of Mr. Timothv Lister. Park road: two
children of JU". Naylor, grocer, Kerrand lane;
William Thompson and William Tindall, work
men of Messrs. Town, and a child of Mr. Thomas

The Owjhcc (.Idaho) Avalanche of June C
savs:
The Ida Ellmore mill is running fifteen and
sometimes twenty stamps, and Is iu splendid
condition. It is crushing quartz lrom tho Ida
Ellinorc mine.
'The New York and Owvhee mill is crushing
quartz at present from the Golden Chariot mine.
The quartz from both the Ida Ellmoro aud
Golden Chariot mines is rich and paying well.
"The Sinker mill, on Sinker creek, Mr. .lohu-
son, superintendent, has been recently started,
nnd is crushing quartz from the Baxter mine.
"Prospecting is now carried on over the whole
length and breadth of War Eagle Mountain.
Among these we notice Mr. Soiumcrcamp on the
soulh extension of the Red Jacket'.
'In the Baxter ledge, at the two hundred foot
level, very rich ore has been found, with a ledge
of two and a half feet in width, where one hun
dred and fifty tons of ore was soon taken out,
which is now' being milled at the Sinker mill.
This miue bids fair to become a good paying
claim.
'The rapid working of the Ida Ellmore mine
for the last two mouths has been greatly retarded
bv the want of air circulation, which has now
been made, connecting the main shaft with the
winze on the two hundred nnd fifty foot level, a
distance of two hundred nnd fifty feet, nnd
throughout carries a bodvof rich ore, averaging,
if not exceeding, two feet and a half In width;
the low er thirty feet of this vein has a width of
over live leet. ut tins it is almost unnecessary
to speak, for its ore, which can be seen on tho
dump, glittering with metal, is more potent
llinu any praise ot ours: ior no person can looiv
nt the ore now taken from .he Ida Ellmore
shaft, Willi its alternations of gold and rich sul
1 burets of silver, w ithout feeling that he beholds
that which is being taken from this or any other
camp.
"The Golden Chariot, a continuation of the
Ida Ellmore, is still as rich as ever iu fact, what
may bo said concerning the Ida Ellmore, in re
gard to the qualitv of its ore, may be said of the
Golden Chariot. This mine, which Is about equal
in depth to that of the Ida Ellmore, has a vein
larger than any yet met with; its richness In
creasing with its depth. The Chariot, the lower
level of which is thirty feet above that of tho
Ida Ellmore, is in a distauce of seventy feet
north, with a ledge of average width and rich
ness: the same may be said of tho drift south,
w hich is run sixty "feet. This company and tho
Ida Ellmore employ constantly about one hun
dred and thirty men."
FIGHT WITH A HOHSB.Mr. Georgo Hamlin, of
this place, hud a very narrow escape from death on
Sunday morning last. It seems that the large block
stallion owned by Ilumlln A Wellmun hail become
unruly on Hnturduy afternoon, lint aiter a conillct
with him, Mr. Ilumlln considered him subdued, on
Suuduy morning, however, while he wus being fed
and taken care of, he watched an opportunity, and
rushed at Mr. Hamlin, catching him by the head with
his mouth, and indicting a severe bite, tearing the
scalp loose from the skull, and rupturing the tempo
ral artery which runs over the head. This so stunned
Mr. llHtulin that he hud begun to fall, when the horso
would no doubt huve puwed him to death; but at
this critical moment, when the horse was furious
with rage, the hostler ran into the stall and struck
the beust a heavy blow between tho eyes with a
hummer, not, however, before ho hud again bitten
Mr. llHinllu several times on the arm and shoul
der, 'ine uiow given the horso partially stunned
him, and enabled Mr. Hamlin to get out of his reach.
Mr. Wellmun, hearing of the ailuir, undertook to
punish the horse, when the animal mude for him,
aud seized him by the waistband of the pants, roared
up with him, not letting go his hold uutil attac ked
by men with clubs, and then completely toariuur the
pants on Mr. Wellmun. Aguia In the afternoon of
Sunday lust he got loose aud out into the burnyxrd,
when it became necessary to actually choke him
down by menus of a Kll-noose before he would per.
wit any one to get within reach of him. Durluir the
choking process his frenzy was fearful to witness, as
he struggled to get hold or those nearest to him.

The Money market continues to rule quiet and

as the statement suillclently Indicates, Is favorable
to a condition of ease, until the close of the present
month at lenar. The absence of all speculative feel
ing and activity iu trade circles intakes the loan
market rule unusually quiet.
Call loans are negotiated at B per cent, on pledge
of (iovernment stocks, anil at 0 per cent, on stocks
and other collaterals. Discounts between banks
and their deposltom range between !nT per cent, for
llrst-clasa business tiaper, but an advance on those
figures Is asked and freely given In the open market.
There is considerable paper ottered which Is not
rated as Brsl-class, though reliable, which it is diffi
cult to negotiate at less than 10 per cent.

The Iew York Money Market.
Frum the Herald.
'The unnatural condition of the money market
was the feature of interest in Wall street during tho
week. There was no cessation of the activity no
ticeable the week before, and rates a portion of the
time were maintained at extreme llgures. Tho sin
gular prevalence of such high Interest rates in the
month of June, when the capital of the couutry has
usually drifted to this centre, is Indicative of an un
sound state of the market, aud is an evil
not so dangerous in the present annoyances
which it creates as in its ramifications
through the various branches of trade and
industry. Money seeks the highest rate of Interest
as surely as water seeks its level. In the stringency
of the past ten or twelve days money has Mowed
here from other business centres, while a constant
and strong demand exists in the West. Hence we
nud the spasms which were, and we may say are. of
daily occurrence. The first Instalment of such cur
rency shipments this way produce relaxation; then
arises the necessity for supplying the demand from
out of town, aud stringency sets in ugaliu To make
matters worse the stock-gumbllng cliques look up
money and add to the general aggravation. Money
is drawn here and there. The West wants Itand must
have it, even if it is necessary to pay extravagant
rates. The stock operators again are unwllliug to
part with their loads and bid still higher rates. The
result is a scramble, in which curreucy is attracted
backwards and forwards to the destruction of the
legilliuute business of the country. It is lngeulously
suid by the Financial Chrvniela that Secretary
lloutwell, In proposing his gold sales ut this season,
expected to contract the currency no more than was
usual by the old bunk system in the summer months,
but overlooked the fact that the expanding ami
revived cotton-growing In the South hud
ulreudy withdrawn the amount suitlclent to
such eWftTlttctlon. As for the general causes
Directing the money market and producing
the stringency. It suys: 'The prominent facta are
these : First The South has retained a largo amount
of currency, sent there In payment for the cotton
crop, which it U likely to hold permanently for the
enlarged requirements of retail circulation.
Second There is outstanding 11,800,000 less of
legal-tenders than on June 1. 1868, principally owing
to the retiring of compound interest notes in excess
of the Issues of three per cent, certificates. Third
The West bus required currency for moving the wool
crop and for murketlng a very heavy surplus of
graiu, which Is being sent forward under the
prospect of another abundant harvest, the amount
; sent to Chicago this month being reported there at
1 Itywo.wo. l ourth The associated bauks held m
Seturdfly last only 50,Ron,noo lcnl-tenders acrftirnf
KiSVJon.ocOon June 13, Ihch. Flfth-'lho rKJs of
the Treasury, on account of the payment of
whisky tax and income tax. have been esre
elBUy hcBvy, while Ihc Secretary of the
Treasury has for some time been selilno
12,000,000 of gold weekly against purchases of only
fl,Hi(i,(K0 of live-twenths, inking luto the Treasury
on these transact Ions fl.fioo.ooo currency per week.
Sixth The Secretary of the Treasury has recently
udled In large amounts of money from the national
Tank d-positorles. Seventh In these operations
(he Treasury das' augmented Its currency balance
during this month at the rate of 6Ki,noo per day, the
Increuso since Juno 1 having been 19,000,000.
Klghth These inov ments have resulted in a loss Of
17,000,000 of legal-tenders by the banks from the be
ginning of the month to June 12, and in a still fur.
ther less during the past week.
"The Government market during the week was
very steady until the last day, when It began toshow
the effects of tight money aud the decline In gold.
The firmness of the foreign quotation comliatted the
influence of the other conditions of the market, and
the yielding was Blight ns compared with other mar
kets subjected to siinlfor influences.
"The bank statement of Saturday Indicates a
strong contractionary effort In response to the with
drawal of currency from general circulation. The
totals of the present exhibit show a decrease in loai s
of nearly seven millions which is further effected
In a correspondingly large fulling off iu the deposits.
'I hc loss In legal tenders is about a million and a
quarter of dollars, and as a portion of this is known
10 have consisted of three per cents, the actual low
In greenbacks Is comparatively small. The curren J
shipped Westward must, therefore, have gone iu
national notes to a great extent.
"The loss in deposits Is so lurge, as compared with
the decrease In specie und legul tenders, that the
banks, while losing actual reserve, gain in the ex-,
cess above the twenty-five per cent, reserve required
by law. The gain us compared with last week
amounts to over six hundred thousand dollars. The
change In the Item of specie Is insignificant, but
shows that the customs demand for gold has ab
soi bed more of the precious metal than was dis
bursed by the Sub-Treasury. The following are the,
differences:
Decrease in loans..' 16,641,829
