FINANCIAL AM) COMMERCIAL. THE MONEY MARKET. Fhila»ei,phia, May 25,1563. The news from Vicksburg caused a commotion among .‘the gold dealers this morning; and a great anxiety to ■sell waa apparent.

The Wheeleb &. WttsbN Sewing Ma cbine.—The following graceful and well-deserved compliment to 'Wheeler Sc Wilson Sowing Machine ia from the pen of Mrs. Sarah J, Hale, editor of Godey's Lady's BoofcS" For the benefit of the ladies of our land, it ought to be copied by every respectable journal throughout the country: ,« The benefits of this wonderful invention increase every year of its trial. There are no dangers attend ing its use, but real pleasure as well as profit in~ite results. Indeed, it seems tp realize the power of good fairies, such as children love and believe in— their* elders often, regret that they have this pleasant faith—more than any other of the labor saving inventions... TheJSewingMachine comes into theheartoif home; it helps in the domestic circle; it has an important influence on family comfort and social happiness. No wonder that good-men are to sound its praises, that ( poets, orators, divines, philosophers, and economists have descant ed upon its bearings on social Interests and the des tiny,pf.woman.’ It is worthy of this praise., -‘‘iThil household-helper, such a one as comes from the manufactory of Wheeler §* Wilson, in the perfect • ness of finish and performance of all kinds and varie ties of "stitching, Is the Queen of Sewing Machines, which we wish could be introduced into every home where women are found.” New Improvements in Photography.— Messrs. Broadbent & p 0.,. Nob. 913, 914, and 916 Chestnut are constantly adding new laurels to their fame, in perfecting the art to which they have contributed more splendidly than any other one firm in America. In-the various styles of co lored piotures which they have carried to such mar ; vellous perfection, they are continually introducing "some new novelty, so that their ever-changing gal leries really become a matter of curiosity for fre quent examination by all admirers of the beautiful in art. Notwithstanding the extraordinary facilities posßessed by tnis firm forproducing pictures rapidly; t^ey-are constantly employing their entire force to njeet’the wants of their numerous patroris. ‘ ' Mat Celebration of Bethany Sab bath School.—By urgent request, this interesting celebration and Sabbath-school Concert will be re peated this evening, at 8 o’clock, in the large church of the Bev. Mr. Chambers, Comer of Broad and San som streets, thus affording an opportunity for Sun day-school people generally to witness the attractive exeroiseß, and enjoy a delightful entertainment. We are informed that the singing of the Mis sion-school .'Children 'is really wonderful, and that their speaking would he creditable to the beat achbol in the land. .Fine Quality of Bay Bum.—The sue cessors to the laie O. H. Mattson, dealers in flue family groceries, Arch and Tenth streets, have now in Btore a very superior article of Kay Rum, of their own bottling, to whioh wc invite the attention of our readers. .' The highest degree of perfection in rival inventions in the same art is rarely attained by the same mind. It mußt, however, be admitted that Mr. Win. O. .Grover, of the Grover & Baker Sewing Machine Company, is an exception to this rule. He has now matched perfection' in the shuttle or lock stitch machines against perfection in the Grover & Baker stitch machines. So that a choice of stitches is all that is left to after a perfect sewing machine. ; “ Tub Way to Beago."—Among, tlic things that are considered greal bores in society is a person who has learned the way to brag, and our mutual acquaintance Vallandigham fully bears us out in our assertion, for no greater bore ever afflicted a people (a 15-inch Dahlgren excepted) than this man ; the last heard from him was that he was in a fair way to Bragg, so that he will be,acquainted with three sides of the rebellion—the outside, inside , and Bw'nside* "When he . gets back he will probably be pretty seedy, and wc apeak in time for hiin-tbe'n to visit Charles Stokes & Co.’s One-Price Clothing Store, under the Continental, . The Fall of Vicksburg.—Tho tele graph brings the glad tidings of the fall of the great rebel stronghold on the Mississippi. This victory will cut the rebel territory in two and deprive Se ceeeia of the bountiful 'supplies furnished by Texas and other Southwestern States. Loyal people re joice that victory perches upon the Stars an<J Stripes,\ and patriots, while exulting in the liope of the speedy downfall of the rebellion, hie them to the i Brown-Stone Clothing Hall of Rockhill & Wilson, Nos. 603 and 605 Chestnut street, above Sixth, and* pTooure new, elegant, and comfortable summer outflts. The . sun rises and sets ; -the moon waxes and wanes ? stars and planets keep their constant motions ; the air is tossed by the winds; the waters ebb abd flow to their conservation and purification, no doubt, to teach us that wc should ever be in ac tion, and purchase our garments at such establish ments as that of Granville Stokes, No. 609 Chestnut street, where one price only is asked, and that ex ceedingly low.
