MR C. EDMUNDS': DESPATCHES.
(Special Despatch to The Press.)
HEADQUARTERS LENT POTOIVEAO,
BEFORE PETERSBURG ' Oct. 31, 1884.
The reconnoissance turns out to have been
even more successful , than was at first supposed, - or
than might be t inferred from the modest despatches
Of- General Cfrant. The General States di
in his O
cial account that we ,took nine hundred prisoners
I leari from good authO s ilti that this :number has
nOW - Swelled to thirteen hundred: Again, the
General merely claims that we repulsed the enemy ;
while the Richmond papers, while contending that
they gained some advantage on the right, ticknow
ledgethat we whipped them 'on the left. And it is
the general opinion that had "we had another hour
of daylight, we.could have captured at.least, a thou
sand prisoners more, For the woods were filled with
rebelk skulliers from iiitithortels division. -Consider
big the difficult nature of the country, and the al
moskinstiperable obstacles which the tangled um
dergiiiiiith and dense 'woods present to military ape.,
ratiork-Leclipsing; by far, in this respect, the - eel's
' bairAsEments of the Wilderness—it is surprising
that so Much was accomplished so easily, and, with
sti, very little loss. We did not know at the time
howliadly we had beaten the enemy. In' anyother
field, e could have taken more advantage, of their
confuslon, and turned what in itself was a de
cided success into a most brilliant vlctory. 'The
. rebelikhowever, not content with the natural °bate
clog in the way of - our advance, had the most ad
vaetageous sites defended with earthworks, and
every available avenue of approach tti their position
was choked up with " slashings ;" in other words,
with timber hewn and suffered to Ile as It fails. -
The prisoners captured are all well-clad, and have
new shoes. Shoes are now manufactured extensive.
ly in . SeVeral of the leading cities of the Confedera
cy, and the necessity for their importation no longer
exists. Doubtless the twenty-five hundred head of
cattle Captured from us some few months ago have
helped.along the shoe trade of the ConfederacY, sup
posing the hides to be tanned by this time, after a
hasty fashion.
The rebels were confident, nay, defiant in their
tone. They boasted that they had taken General
Meade and a*colonel prisoner. - As we have no news
at headquarters leading us to suppose . Gen. Meade
was rounfortunate,•but have the .evidences of our
senses that he Was with us in the flesh to-day, the
rebels are - probably' laboring iinder•a'slight Wasp
prehension. It may be true that they have a colo
nel prisener. Colonel Harney, of the 147th New
York regiment, has been • missing since the fight,
and we have no tidings of his fate. He started for
theld Corps, between which find the sth Corps a
gaplisd inadvertently taken place, and it is proba
ble tifit the rebels have 'made a dash through this
loordiple and "gobbled" him up—to use the elegant
phra'seology of the army.
AbOut 10 o'clock last night the silence which has
prevailed , uninterruptedly for several days was
broken by heaVy peals of musketry on our right,
and, in a few minutes heavy cannonading bZ'gan
along our whole line, from the Appomattox to the
front of Petersburg.• The firing was heavy and con.
tinuous, and lasted for about twenty minutes. It
appears that at the hour named, - the - rebels at
tempted to - pay us 'back in our own 'coin for' the
strategy, which we , had employed so successfully
agalnst.them on Thursday night, in Capturing one
of their main forts. Stealthily , and quiety ad
vancing their skirmish line in front of the 2d Corps,
they attempted to "relieve" our pickets. "Fall In I
fail in !" said the rebels; . "never mind •your
muskets . or . knapsacks—we'll take care of
then!" The move was so well managed that
some of our pickets were taken completely
by sanitise, and a dozen. or' more of them were
trade prisoners. The others,
,however, discharged
their pieces, and,"retiringi to the works, promptly
gave the alarm, The breastworks were immediately
manned; the artillerists sprang to their guns, and
in the twinkling: of an eye the hills and valleys far
and.bearlvere reverberating with the sharp rattling
of musketry and the dull booming of heavy guns.
The rebel skirmishers were scarcely prepared for
such . a•noisy'saluiation, and prudently retired, after
losing as many killed and wounded as they had
takep,,,,prisoners.The enterprise was, one . of.great
audacit3,lkit .
it interesting erasthe sup
pesitinn, indulged ,in by some, that it was the pre
lude t 9 a geterarattack along the lines, But the
rebele, Were they. 'thrice as strong numerically,
woitidthainly have audacity enough for that.
The Oection commissioners are still among us.
TheiPennsylyania regiments are pretty generally
voting to sustain the Administration. As much can
not;beiaid for the NOW Yorktroops. It is a great
mistake, however, to Imagine that they are Voting
with anything like unanimity for McClellan, Most
of the city regiments, it is true, are for him, but the
men throughout the State are sound upon the po
'Moat issue. The 76th New tork Regiment has
voted almost unanimously for the Government, and
it is not an exceptional case. . •

Brigadier General Crawford, lately commanding
the bth Corps vice General Warren, absent on leave,
has just been breveted a major general. The honor
is not unmerited. The conduct of Gen. Crawford
in the late reconnoissance should of itself entitle
him to an additional star.
AColonel Hoffman, formerly in command of the
EBth Pennsylvania Regithent, and latterly in com
mand of the 3d Brigade, 8d Division, sth Corps, has
likewise received his just deserts in the shape of an
appointment as brevet brigadier general. (3 - eneral
Hoffman is a popular offiaer, and a good disciplina

It is to'be regretted that on the eve of these.pro
motibns, several cases of demotion require to be re
corded, -In the surprise of our picket line night
before last; eighteen of the pickets were captured
before the alarm was given. It appears that'they
belonged to one of the new regiments. The ti

of the regiment in charge of the picket line have
been sent to the ranks, and the regiment itself is or
dered to a camp of instruction.
SBIBMISHING AT BIGHT TO AVOID SUBPRIEOIS-BE
• BBL DEBBRTBEB AND THEIR INFORKATION.
.. MR.. R. If. MoBRIDE'B DISPATCH.
[Special Despatch to The Press
BBFORB PETBESIICIRG, Nov. 1, 1864.
Everything has been unusually quiet here until
yesterday. It was thoughtby some that our pickets
would retaliate for the tricks played upon them by
the rebel skirmishers. By some negligence, several
outposts were taken by the enemy. Skirmishing is
kept up during the night as the best preventive
against such mishaps.
There will soon be a number of execatlons in this
army for desertion—that is, if the President does
not display too much clemency. Those who leave
our line's carry information with them, are locum
clone, and anxious to tell all they know. Many
rebel prisoners take the oath of allegiance, enlist
for large bounty, and the first opportunity that of.
fers away they go to their friends. They have had
a nice furlough, and return to their commeads on
riclig and recruited. •
Bat.what have we gained from the information
of desiuters 7 Nothing, absolutely nothing. I ne
ver knew 'them to report an expected attack ; and
vibeil.have their words been verified by the result
If one should attempt to ingratiate himself, be
cause of valuable communication he has to Impart,
the_ man should be held in close confinement, and
shOt, if his Important information" should prove
spurious.
Rebels desert to escape death, hunger, and hard
ships. They think no more of our cause nor less of
their own than ever. Major Venable, captured by
the 2d Corps, near Boydtown plank road, a Georgian,
and formerly adjutant general of Stuart's Cavalry,
then upon A. P. Hill's staff, Is a fair specimen of the
prisoners wo take. No insignia, no mark o( dress
or address, betrayed his rank. About his person
scarcely anything could be found to give infer"
'nation of his grade. When far away from. the
South Side road we learned all about him. Would
that those captured could be equally reticent.
Despatch From (A en.. Sally.
PROSPECT OP PEACE 'WITH THE INDIANS.
The St. Paul Pioneer of the 28th ult. says
A copy of Gent Suliy's despatch, dated 'at Grew
Creek Agency (Fort Thompson), the 10th, was-re
ceived by Gen. Sibley yesterday. It reports.. hit
arrival there that day Irom'Fort Rice.
Three head chiefs of the hostile bands, who werei•
In both the battles, had been, in to the fort (Thomp
son), who acknowledged that they had been badly
beaten, and were no match for the whites. They
wished to know what terms of peace would be grant
ed them. The commanding officer told them they
must conduct themselves better and no .longer mo
lest the whites. They went away, saying they would.
go and bring in their principal people. One of these
three chiefs called himself 13earrios chief of the
Unkpapa Sioux. General Sully left? his assistant
adjutant general at Fort Sully to meet the Indians
it they returned. Other, but friendly, ,Indians
brotight to General Sully the same news. -He has
no doubt that all the hostile Indians west of the
Missouri will come in for peace, but, unless they
get in before winter sets in, they need not be ex
pected till spring, as they will establish winter
camps as far as possible from. the soldiers.
General Sully thinks the prbspeot . good for peace
with the Indians west of the Missouri, but antici
pates further. trouble with the Eastern Sioux so
long as the British possessions furnish them a safe
,and convenient refuge.

THE BATTLE OF THURSDAY—UNION SUCCESS
ON TSB. LEFT.—The Richmond Dispatch, gives the
annexed account of the battle of Thursday. It will
. ,
be, seen that a considerable 'Union success on the
'left of their line is acknewledged :
In the battle of Thursday last, our:infantry lose in
killed and wounded will not exceed one hundred and
fifty. In prisoners we lost between throe and four'
hundred. In the cavalry our loss was not very se
vere, as General Hampton's main attack was made
upon the Federal rear. General HaMpton, how
. ever, lost one son killed and another severely
wounded.
Immediately after the cessation of hostilities on
Thursday night, the enemy commenced to withdraw
his forces in the direction of his fortifications on the .
Vaughan and Squirrel Level roads, and by , two'
o'clock. Friday morning had entirely disappeared
from the plank road, - with the, exception of a small
force left there to =keep - up an appearance of his
prepenee in our front. As soon as this was dis
covered, a brigade of .out troops was ordered to ad
vance end feel the enemy's position"; and,• meeting
with, such slight resistance '
. they pushed forward
only to ascertain that the en emy had gone. Some
two s,hundred and fifty additional prisoners were •
'taken • here. Some three hundred Federal dead
-were found unburied on Thursday's field, and about
two, hundred. of his wounded;too :much 'disabled to
be remeved." Fifteen hundred stands of small arms
were gathered up, with • a number- "of llinberereals
sons, wagons, &c., which the enemy had abandoned,
allowing that his retreat was hurried. ' It is probable
that many wounded were carried off in ambulances.
The enemy has fallen ; back to his original posi
tion, and we have reeestablished our former lines.
During the fight of Thursday, three stands of co
lors were captured by Malone's old brigade, viz :
One by Robert Hatcher, Company E, 12th Virginia
Regiment ; one by Sergeant _Emelt Richardson,
Company ICS of the same command, and the third.
by a member of the 61st Virginia Regiment.
About dark on Thursday night, while the fighting
was progressing on our right, a mean force of the
enemy made bold dash on bur , works on the left,
'and succeeded in capturing a portion of them,
They also gained Possession of one piece of artille.
ry, and took prisoners Lieutenant -Colonel Harri
son and some twenty or thirty-men of-the 46th.. Vi
rginia Regiment.
The Petersburg Express gives the following ex
planation of the affair :
The _event occurred about the time of relieving
pickets. The night was dark and' rainy; the. Ya
nkee pickets requested that fighting Should cease.
The request was acceded to. . When our , pickets
weres relieved, the Yankees ;mine in close' after
them, many representing themselves as deserters,
but having their short carbines `concealed beneath
their overcoats. , The ruse Wastemporarily success
ful, and had it been undertaken by a large force,
might have resulted disastrously. ,
The Yankees; were ,driven from our works with
the loos of ten or twelve , prisoners.

General Hampton followed the enemy on his

lines of their infantry.
Several hundred prisoners were captured, and
the enemy burned some of their 'caissons and am

paper says,:
Lomax has chastised the enemy's cavalry in two
engagements in the valley, and captured three
pieces of artillery. Pretty well for - an army that
was represented by Sheridan to be scattered to the

and will have It all before we stop/
The following despatch was received on Saturday;:
HEADQUARTERS ARMY N. VA., Oct. 29, 1854.
Han. James A. Seddon. Secretary of War:
Gen. Early reports that the enemy attacked Gen.
Lomars forces at Milford, on the 25th instant, with
one brigade and two pieces of artillery, and were
repulsed... The next day they attacked with two bri
gade,a and six pieces of artillery, and were again
driven back.
General Lomax reports our loss very slight.'

General A. 17. , Duffle commanding 'lSt division

Examiner. ill • . -
ROOD'S Aft3lY Pnonennv rrr Tarrerassze.—The
war has been transferred from Georgia to Alabama.
The Yankees themselves confess this. They say
Sherman,.on the 27th, was at Gayleavlile, , che,sing
Hood, who was in full' retreat to Gadsden. We
may easily detect the absurdity of this electioneer
ing Yankee despatch, when welobk on the map and
see, that Gaylesville Is in the northern part of
Cherokee county, on the Chatooga, an affluent of
the Coosa, and that Gadsden is in the southwestern
part of. the same county, just where the railroad
from Jacksonville to Gunter's Landing, on the Ten.
nessee river, crosses the Coosa'. 'A few days ago
the Southern papers stated that Beauregard was at
Jacksonville with a considerable body or''reinforce
. ments for Hood. The two foices doubtless effected a
junction four or Jive days ago, and as Gunter Land
ingla only some thirty miles front Jackson Ville, it is
more than probable that Hood and Beauregard are now
in Tennessee.
We doubt whether Sherman's whole army," or any
large portion of it, is at Galyesvllle. It is,much
more likely that the main body is moving down the
Tennessee river in transports as rapidly as they can
be steamed, and that only a corps of observation,
consisting principally of cavalry, is kept in Hood's
rear.—Examiner.

A. H. STEPHENS' LBTTEE-OPINIONS OP THB MOH.
MOND PRESS-THB REBELS AND COPPERHEADS
TO BE OEMBNTED TOGETHER BY TRH . BLOOD OP
BLADE{ BEPUBLIOANS.
The Richmond papers of the nst contain the fol
lowing articles on the subject of peace and rooon.
struction :
The Dispatch says : The letter from Vice President
Stephens to William King, the messenger from
General Sherman,
with propositions to negotiate,
is publiehed. The invitation was for the Vice Weld.
dent to meet the Yankee in Atlanta. After express
ing his anxiety to ,promote the termination of this
fratricidal war,” Mr. Stephens says:
But, in the present instance,'the entire absence of
any power on my part to.enter. into suok negotia
tions, and the like absence of any Enoh power on his
part, so far as appears from his message, necessa
rily precludes my acceptance of the invitation thus
tendered. In communicating this to Gen. Sher
man you may also say to him,that if he is of opinion
that there is any prospect of our agreeing upon
terms of adjustment, to be submitted to the action
of our respective Governments, even though he has
no power to act in advance in the premises, and
will make this known to me in some formal and au
thoritative manner, (being so desirous for peace
himself, as you represent him to have expressed
himself), I would most cheerfully and willingly,
with the consent of our authorities, accede to his
request thus manifested, and enter, with all the
earnestness of my nature, upon the responsible and
arduous task of restoring peace and harmony to the.
justice
to
upon principles of honor, right, and
to all parties. This does not seem to mo to be at all
impossible, if truth and reason should be permitted
to have their full sway.
The Sentinel makes" the following remarks : In
the war which the :United States'is waging upon us
it is vain to expect negotiations until the assailing
party has been pummelled out of his fury, or comes
to despair of , success; The failure of hope will be
attended with a sense of weariness and exhaustion
that Will. prepare our adversaries for negotiation.
Till then, and, while they are raining their blows
upon us with all their fury, and filling the air with
Vauntings of victory, the petitions of peace, coming
from us, worildim as snivelling as the supplicating
sir,” which is hear fiat :the I wldpping.post
in answer to each fall of the lash. ,The duty of the
present hour is to deal right lusty - blows upon our
enemy, and to make him disgusted with his under
taking.
Peace will then come of its own accord. It can
never come before, but by submission. If those
among us who 'cry out for negotiation moan nib-.
mission, their conduct is logical, though not
frank. If they do not mean submission they are
encouraging the enemy, and injuring the cause of
the country by their whimperings ; and they ought
to respect the public judgment sufficiently to give
over their timid arid unmanly counsels. •
A correspondent of the Whig takes the following
bloothirsty view of the subject : Talking , of recon
struction, there Is but one moans for a thorough re
unfon,'and that is by a combination between the Con.
federates• and the Northern conservatives, cemented try
the blood of the Black Republicans. If the Northern
conservatives-would at once and,activerly. co-operate
with us on this basis, there might- be hopes of a
happy and pernuanant reunion. Bat nothing short
of the blood, the extermination of the monsters
who have made this war will suffice. •
If the Northern conservatives are not ready for.
this combination, the next, and possibly our best,
alternative Is. annexation to England or Prance.
This would render reunion forever impossible, and
at the same time gratify that which is the absorbing
passion of every Southern heart—vengeance on the
infernal Yankees. I would Amake the application
for annexation in the first instance to I...%dgland, as
the mother country. if she declines, We could then
apply to France. The advantages to either would
he so great that refusal could not be expected.
The advantages to us would be eternal sepa
ration from the Yankees, - and the ability of wreak.
ing . upon that godless raoe a rich and sweet re.

FOUR CENTRy
Hew Alien's are Affected' Sy the Draft,
To the F.',ditor of The Press:
Sin : As the quota of the city or Philadelphia,
under the late call of the President for9mp,oo men,
has now been filled, I wish to state a few but im
portant facts connected with the enrolling and
I dniftinir Of treopoo . every nitivefierit and 'natu
ralized citizen of this 00thmoniiialth.
Happening. to be a resident of one of thrwards
- that contains a large amount of foreign population
,(vls : Nineteenth), and rating 'only second in' the
number of taxable inhabitants, there must hecessa
. rily be a large amount of aliens.
Now, by taking the enrolment list, we find that
the thinners have enrolled in the Nineteenth ward
nearly five thcinsarid persons subjeot to draft; and
by taking the bounty fund committee's 'report we
end that nearly one thousand of those enrolled are
aliens. Tho . quota or the Nineteenth ward, I lie'
neve, was sfxhundred' twenty men, or say eight
men to the hundred, and by the - one thousand aliens
being enrolled, the'quota - was 'swelled• eighty monk
'which was an injtistlee'done to the citizens of the
Nineteenth to the amount of eighty men. The right
quota of the Nineteenth ward should have been five
hundred and forty men.
Now, Mr. Editor, this ward was filled by a bounty
fund committee of the word, who have collected il
some 417,000, and paid the ward bounty as far as it
.was possible so to do; but, nevertheless, the bounty
fund committee kept on and- filled - the quota on
credit, or involved the honor of the committee to the
extent of say $3,000. Thus , it became necessary..to
• send out the committees againto collect, so that
the . honor of the ward and of the committee should
remain untarnished ; and among. others 'who have
been called on for, donations, have been this vast
- number of aliens, who have, in nine cases out of ten,
refused to give. -
Now, Mr. Editor, out of these one thousand aliens
enrolled, and who refuse 'to give, seven-tenths of
theni are carrying on legitimate business, in. their
own' names, as hotel-keepers, grocers, dry goods
dealers, stovemakers, manufacturers, &c., and very
many owning largely in real'estate.
Now; suppose (which God forbid) that the Go
vernment should require every citizen liable to' the
draft, and that there should be no such thing as
bounty-fund committees to procure men, Is it justice
to ourselves, as business men, to be taken from our
business, while the aliens remain: and augment
theirs 1 Do they not have all the benefits of pro.
teetion of the civil eourts If we injure them per•
sonally or pecuniarily, do they not have recourse to
lawl The question' of allenage never comes before
the court..
Now, as all of these aliens are alike protected by
civil. and Military laws, would It be any more than
justice to the business community and
.citizens in
general to have a license inn , passed (or.there may
be such a one already, which I do not know of)
compelling every alien who desires to carry on busi
ness to declare his intention of becoming a Citizen,
so that he may become In part responsible to the
country which affords him security and safety to his
person and property? G. D.
TESTIMONIAL TO A nra4DIBYLVANIAN AT SHICE 6
rump, ENGLAND.—The " Sheffield and Rotherham
independent, of October 15, makes the following
mention of R. M. Stevenson, of Carlisle :
, We announced a short time ago the probability
that a change would be made in the appointment of
the consular agent for the United States in Sheffield.
A few friends of R. M. Stevenson, Esq., who has
hitherto filled the office, invited that gentleman to
meet them at a private dinner at the Black Swan
Hotel yesterday, and presented him with. a hand
some silver cup in remembrance of his sojourn
amongst them. •
The venerable Benjamin Greenleaf, of Brad
ford, died, on Friday last, at his residence In that
town, at the age'of seventy.eight years. Mr. Green
leaf graduated from. Dartmouth College in
,1811.
From 1820 to 1850 he was the honored and eminent
principal of Bradford Academy, where he fitted
thousands of young men for college, many of whom
have since become distinguished in the various
walks of life, and by whom his memory will ever be
cherished with respect and affection. Mt. Green
leaf was probably still more widely known as the
author of a series of mathematical works, which
have had a wide popularity, and are found in
public and private schools all over the laud.—
'Boston Journal.
An extraordinary affair lately occurred in the
town of Orel, in Russia t A great local land owner
had a large sum (forty-three thousand silver rou
bles) to receive through the police office of that
town.- On applying for the amount he was told
that the money could not be handed over to him un
less he presented the office with five thousand silver
roubles. Be refused, and immediately reported the
case to St. Petersburg; and the money was paid over
to him. But on the evening of the same day, as he
was quietly smoking in his study, a loud ring was
heard at the bell. The servant, on opening the
door, was instantly pinioned, and four men, their
faces covered with black • crape, rushed into the
room and told him he must hand over his forty
three thousand roubles. With the greatest coolness
be went over to his strongbox, opened it, seized a
-revolver which waa laid on the, top shelf, and shot
two 01 the robbers dead, the other two immediately
• takingbo their heels. On. the orape being removed
from the faces of the dead men they were recognised
as the head of the police and his secretary.

There was a rampant stock market yesterday, begin.
ning before busineis howl and continuing np to five
o'clock in the afternoon. The excitement was confined
almost exclusively to the oil stocks, and, a genuine "oil
fever" reigned throughout the day. The rise in Maple
Shade carries many of the weaker stocks with it, and
if the present feeling should long continue, growing out
of the accidental success of one company, we may ex
pect to see many new stocks brought forward on the
stock list. The transactions in oil shares were princi
pally Maple Shade, Curtin. and Rgimt.. —Tile-latter is
said to have an interest in the oil developed by the
fernier, and this occasioned a rise from 3% to SX. Cur
tin sold up to 9%; an advance of 2% over Wednesday's
rate; Maple thade 10X, selling freely at the - close
at 59%. This is the highest figure yet reached by
'any Philadelphia oil company. The other oil stocks
were firm with an advancing tendency. For Govern
ment loans there was not so much inquiry, and prices
fell off Xto X. There was nothing said in State soca
rities; City 6s were weak, and the old Issue were a
fraction lower. The railroad. share list showed a gene
ral decline; Pennsylvania :Railroad, which advanced
on Wednesday to 73, fell of yesterday to 69X: Harris
burg Railroad sold at 69; Norristown at 80; and Mine
hill at 60. There was a fair market for bonds; Phila
delphia and Sunbury 7s sold at 103;.Schnyikill Naviga
tion boat 6s at 94; and Susquehanna Canal scrip at 60.
In city passenger railroads there sere no material altera
tions. There were sales of Spruce at Pine at 313x' ;.26X
was bid. for Girard. College; 29 for Green and Coates; 35
for Thirteenth and Fifteenth; 60 for Chestnut and Wal

The: London Economist of the 22d of •October nays or
financial affairs:
. .
. The news received in the early 'part of the week from
Brazil, and which conveyed information* of the large
failures that had occurred there, produced a very die,
agreeable effect In London. The indisposition to ex
tend accommodation became very marked, and muck
reserve was maintained, notwithstanding the gradual
improvement that had become perceptible in the
character of the money market here. hnbeequently,
less inquiry has been made; and, as very many firms
have improved their position materially, the greater
abundance of money since the payment of the dividends
is beginning to make itself felt. To-day the tendeney
taken,rable ; dated first-class paper is more readily
and on the higher descriptions of trade bills the
terms are lower.
The Bank return of to-day has contributed much to
the more satisfactory tone. of the. market, which had
been further strengthened by the favorable nature of the
account published by thellank.of France.
The following are the market terms for paper of vast
one 'dates •30 to 60 days, 9 per cent. ; 3 months, 9 per
cent. ; 4 months, 3% per cent.; 6 months—Bank bills, 9
Per cent. ; 6 months—T, ads bi lls, 9% per cent. •
Abroad, the rates of discount are uncertain In Paris,
the outside terms are below those' current at the Bank.
At Madrid, where a sort of panic pre.aild, the Bank
rate has bees raised to 9 Pe r cent.. In Hamburg, in con
sequence of the little demand that eaters for alive r. the
rate has fallen to 4 per cent.
The New S ork Poet of yesterday says;
Gold opened at 230. and: attar selling at 233, advanced
to 235, closing at 233%. • The loan market is moderately
active at 7 per cent. Commercial bills pass elowly, at 3
(gi9 for first. class, and 10012 for lower grades. •
The stock market opened dull, became heavy, after
wards recovering; - and closing with an upward _ten
dency. Governments are quiet. Certificates have re
ceded to 99%, new five-twenties to 100%, and ten . forties
