WEEKLY REVIEW OF THE MARKETS
ILEMAILICS:—Since our last weekly review of the
Pittsburgh market, there has been a decided im
provement in business of all descriptions. The
heavy; rains during the past week have swelled the
rivers as high as the steamboat men desire. Im
mense quantities of goods are now being shipped off
to the west and south. Indeed, the Monongahela
wharf at thii time presents quite an animating spec
table—boaM loading and unloading—the draymen
all busy at Work--omnibisses and carriages running
to and fro—in short, every thing is life and bustle.
The oldest merchants in the city inform us that they
-neverknew the fall business to set in with more
:promise; and when we take into consideration the
'fact that a certain class 'of politicians predicted last
year that all interests in the community would suffer
'in consequence of a change in the revenue laws of
the country, we can beint to the present prosperity, ,
which is every where visible, with feelings of thei
utmost pleasure.
The stockiof Pittsburgh manufactured articles of
all kinds were never better or larger than they are
at present—in fact, the merchants are compelled to
keep:on hand heavy stocks to meet the increased
demands upon them. Country merchants who may
visit the city willfiti no difficulty in suiting them
selves.
MONEY Themoney market remains without
any change, and there is no pressure or "tightness' ,
to report. Currency is plenty and is purchased by
khe brokers at I per cent discount. The banks, we
:believe, discount all the good paper that is offered.'
We have heard of no new counterfeits in eircula- 1
lion since our last. The'new counterfeit s's on the
•M. & M. Bank have been fully detected, and but few
have made their appearance in the west.
