SATURDAY, May 16, 1868.
The acquittal of the, President on, the . I
eleventh article of impeachment. and the
impression that he will be acquitted alto
gether, is given as the cause of the decline
of gold to-day to 13934. The market open
ed at 138%, advanced to 139%, and closed
at 13934. Gold may be said to be now about
equally distant from the extremist of a
rise, 143 being admitted as the limit in the
upward course, and 1371 as the lowest:
point to which it is likely to decline in case
public opinion should judge favorably of
the disposition the impeachment court will
make of the President's case. The worst
that might happen would be the acquittal
of the President and a continues smi:m of
Congress until next .March:
Government bonds are firm, and the'dis
bursements for compound interest notes is
likely to stimulate investments, and will
ultimately adiitnce prices of Govern ents.
, The great advantage our national sec 'ties
I'offer in Europe are the convenient si of
1 small bonds; a one hundred dollar bo d re
presents 250 florins, or about 522 francs,
which 'is a capital for those who seek small
investments for their savings. If the Pa
cific Railroad bonds were of such a cone
' nient size, no doubt Europeon bankers
would take the whole issue of them at once
for distribution, but they are going out
fast enough to the disadvantage of our
monied men.

The depression in the Express stocks

—The Cincinnati Commercial, of . Friday,
says : It is about time for the New York
money market to show signs of prepara
tion for the Chicago convention, and ex
hibit how very necessary it, is that party
caucuses shall declare in favor of, some
clever device by wkich. to get up a little
financial exhilaration as a part of the pre
gramme for a political campaign. There
have already been rumors that Congress is
to do what it can in that way, but there is
no evidence that such a measure has any
living shape in that quarter yet, and it is
certainly to be hoped that it will not. The
story has doubtless been fabricated Merely
to have a temporary influence on the mar
ket, or was thrown ont as a straw to catch
the drift of the popular breeze.

day, prices area shade lower. -On these
days spot oil soldreadily at 12e, while yes.
terday, it was dgered and "sold' at ilc; to.
day, however, there was a stronger feeling
in consequencelof the fact that there was
but very' little` islxot oil in market, and we
are cognizant or eleven centehaving been

offered and reed. The sales were as
follows: 2,00 s for May sellers's op
lion at 11c; 5,1,000 eaehfrom August
to. December, a 12c, and 3;000 to be de-.
livered betweejt now and October, buyer's
option, at *1,501 per bbl at Oil City. The
demand.is manly for spot oil, and it is
somewhat scarte at present, this accounts
for the firmnesS noticeable to-day.
REFINED-4'he market for bonded oil
has also been Very much. excited aad un
settled darin•the past week, and at one
time May., oil sold up to 33 and 340, but..
since then, botliever, it hes receded to 31%
and 32c, with little or nothing doing. June
may be quoted at 293 to 30c, and July at
30 1 4 e. All the year, buyer's option, is.
nominal at 32%c, .the last sale reported
having _been if made at, that figure. . There
are no new deirelepinents in regard to the
exci "corner ;" the shipments were not
as as usual to-cloy, but this was ow
ing -doubtless to a want of cars; it is be
lieved, howeter,: that sufficient oil; with
what has already gone, will be , got tar
ward within the next few days •to prevent
a b'' as
if so the roovemeak, of
course, will, a failuit4 and may - be , pro--
ductive of pleasant consequences to
those cpucerised. There are thosekhow
ever, who allege that a ' , corner" is, inevi
table; that there are some thirty-five thous
and barrels of oil to be elivered in •
delphia between this a • d the 22d and 23d.
and that , it is impossibl to deliver that
amount of oilthere in e time above spe
cified. The situation is very interesting to
outsiders, wad IS -being etched closely by
many who are not enga ed in the business.
