OFFICE OF THE PITTSBURGH GAZETTE,
MONDAY, April 20, 1868;
. ,
The increased shipments of specie to
Europe and the absence of any commercial
bills in the maritine cities, has given , a
strong tone to the 'gold market, and rates
have advanced ,to-day from 138% to 139,
with an advancing tendency. /Commercial
bills have been bought up recently by The
Gerinan and English honses, who have
their own terms for exchange, and unless
the Assistant Treasurer at New York
should continue to sell gold to the end of
this month, a sharp advance in gold is un
avoidable, and may disturb once more the
values of merchandise. Government bonds
are much depressed in the . European mar
kets, even before the payinent of the last
coupons, which is semething unusual; at
home the market has advanced With a ten
dency to follow the price of gold, but Seven
Thirties are weak on account of the persis
tent refusal Of the government-to buy these
bonds at market rates nom' , g per cent.
above the offers of government agents. The
business in bonds is very ilea, buyers are
as scarce as sellers, and unless rates ad
vance, consideiple little is likely to be
done, since money commands better rates
elsewhere.
ra
The stock market is unsettled,. but the
feeling is rather bullish. It seems confi-
dence is returninlg, and the feuds between
the Erie and New York Central roads have'
terminated by the passage of the bill in re
gaid to the mode of applying the proceeds
of the third mortgage bonds of the Erie
read. Some of the western roads are ac
tively dealt in, and a big business is done
in them.
The local money market is easier, and is
likely to improve for the next three or four
weeks by the payment of a large amount
of compound interest notes due May loth.
Money is to be had in bank at '9 ta 19 per
eent., exceptlavorite customers, whd pay 6
per cent., their balances justifying such a
distinction.

OFIFCE OF THE PITTSBCRGH .....
20, Af ETTE.
MoNoay, April 868. 1
CRUDE --The crude market presents no
new characteristics worthy of spCcial no
tice. There is a fair-demand, both for pres
ent and future delivery, and while prices
are well sustained, there is no quotable
change.. We can report sales of 2000 and
1000 bbls,on spot, at 8,4i0, and the same fig:
ure was offered for more. For May, June
and July, there are buyers at ,9 to 93/,,c, but
no sellers below 9;,e. All the' year is nom
inal at 12o—there has not been a sale for
some time. The receipts continue large,
though strange as it may appear, there is
but comparatively little oil offering, the
great proportion of • that arriving having
been sold previous to arrival, and as a con
sequence, the amount of oil,really on the
market for sale is actually Much smaller
than ninny have been let to believe. We
have no definite advices from 011 City to
, Any: a firmer feeling, however, was re
torted. '
1 REFTNED--The market fOr bonded oil
is bteady with considerable inquiry, both
for present and future delivery, and 'the
offerings- continue r. We have but a
Single sale to record: 000 bbls to be deliv
ered within the nexttwenty days, Seller's
option, flat, at 21c, free on board cars here.
- May is quoted at 26y, to 2ft June, 26%e;
and all the year, buyer's option, at 31 to
32e. We look for an improvement in busi
'dew now, as many of our operators who
have been in Philadelphia , as witnesses in
'the' O'Connor-Tack case, . have returned
'home t and others will doubtless arrive ti:b
night and to-morrow. _

ALLEGHENY CATTLE MARKET.
OFFICE OF THE PITTSBURGH GAZETTE,
MONDAY. April 20,-1868. .
CATTLE.
There was a very full supply of Cat le on
sale to-day, and with a demand rest
restricted
almost entirely to supplying the wa is of
the retail trade, the market was a dul one,
and, if anything, compared with last w eek,
prices ruled a shade lower, though r ally,
there was very little difference. The q shity.
of Cattle was veryr good, consisting n ly
of prime Western Steers, and while here
was no complaint in this respect, ther was
considerable complaint among the b tch
ens in regard to, prices, and with goo rea—
son, too, though drovers are not to blame,
as cattle are high all over the country, and
cannot be brought here and sold for any
less. We are in hopes, however that the f
Offerings of Sheep will be 'quite large within
the next thirty days, as farmers will send
them to market pretty freely after taking
the wool off, and this will have a tendency „?
to restrict the demand for cattle somewhat,
and, as a consequence, prices may, and,
probably, will rule lower:
Greenwald & Kahn report having re
tailed 70 head of prime to extra•Cbi go
steers at 8 to 9,70.

There was an increased supply of - ShCep
on sale to-day and the ns
market, as a coe
quenee, ruleddull, and prices may be quo
ted from a quarter to a half cent lower, es- f
peCially for common to - mediutn. Clipped
Sheep are commencing to arrive pretty
freely, and dealers expect prices to decline ;.
-materially within the next thirty days, as
the supply will no doubt be considerably
in excess of the demand. We are quoted "
