FINANCE AND TRADE,
OFFICE OF THE PITTSBURGH. GAZE
SATURDAY. September 19, 1868._
The war rumors from Europe having
proved false, the Foreign Bankers did their
best to get rid of their gold, and sold it
down, to-day, to 144%, at which pribe, how
ever, only large amounts could be bought
on future delivery, the market havin
touched 144% to 144%. If it was not for
the extraordinary supply of Exchange the
market would stand much higher to-day
whether there were war rumors or none.
The imports are kept up, and the supply
of gold on the market is getting more and
more reduced and accumulates in the sub
treasury. The fair prospects of a Republi
can victory in November has induced par
tiesto borrow gold on their November in
terest, thus selling in advance what may
command a much higher price in Novem
ber. Further more, large sums of gold
have been sold short at about 144, and to
cover this with a prat it ought to be
bought back at about 143. Lent money be
ing cheap, the bulls have but little diffi
culty in carrying a large amount of gold at
no interest at all.
Government bonds stilt _remain very in
active, and thongh lt• '.claimed that they
"are cheap, especially - the,:_new bonds, yet
investors are very timid in buying; the only
borids that have advanced are the old 186.5
and 1864 5-20'8, which were supposed
to be coming back from Europe for ex
change, but were shipped only ln small
lots. Ten Forties have lost their prestige,
and are neglected. The best reason given
for the neglect of goyeniments at present
is the excited and precarious condition of
the stock market; the bulls have thrown
their whole force
,on that, and - have their
funds engaged. A prudent observer willsee
that an early decline in the Wick market
is inevitable, and stocks will carry down
bonds, although they would immediately
advance again in order to' employ the capi
tal disengaged by stock speculation. -
The stock 'market is entirely under the
control of the bulls; if the bears are svilling
to be bled and are in a condition to heed,
then much higher prices may ensue, and
a large number of firms may be crippled.
It seems that Monday morning _will wit
ness a fresh rise; the timid holders having
sold out to -day, and the bears succeeded in
getting but a small amount of stocks; the
rise, 'however, does not, seem to be carried
over the entire list.' New York Central' 14
the strongest on the list, and is the main
dependence of the bull party. ,
Business is improying, and money easy.

—The indisposition of holders of Govern
ments to part with them is one of the strik
ing features of the market, and is partly
the result of an easy money market, and
partly of confidence in the faith Cf•tlie na
tion to make good its promises in the pay
ment of these securities. It- is authorita
tively stated from Washington that the
Sherman Funding bill, as it is called,
which passed both houses of Congress just
before the recent adjournment, failed to
become a law for want of the signature of the
President. The bill known as the Funding

having been a fair volume of business, in
the aggregate, though there is, 'neverthe

REVIEW FOR THE WEEK.
The course of the oil market during the
past week, which has just closed, has been
by no means a smooth one, having been
characterized by that irregularity and tin
.
certainty which has prevailed for some
time past, and which, from present, indi
come. Thor has. nevertheless,
has.
cations, will ontinue for several weeks to
been a fair
volume of b iness, in the aggregate, the
sales comin up to the usual average.
E/ „e
Prices were eak and drooping until Fri
day, and to sty, when a firmer feeling -
I sprung up, es cially for early deliveries.
and a slight dvance f,r both Crude and.
Refined was established. The receipts of
Crude during the week footed up 22,80.4
barrels, againat 20,670 barrels last week,
and fr .m January Ist until date, 765,036
barrels. The exports of refined were 18,-
1
336, against 117,120 last week, and since
*January Ist, 477,933, against 447,528, cor
responding tine last year, showing an in
creesie of 30,405 bbls. Sales this , week of
1 0
• both Crude nd Refined footed up . 95,500
bbls, against 100 last week, showing ask
increase of 4.5, barrels.
• : CRUDE.
The marks although. Arm. was again
very quiet to- ay, with but a single sale re
ported,l,ooo bls, to be delivered between
October Ist a' d December Ist, seller'sop--
tion, at 11c. • 'Spot oil—not a single- re
ported; held ,LIX to 11qc, with no buy
ers at anythi g. over eleven. The main
cause. for, the rnines. in Spot oil lies in the
fact that Refi ad_ is also a shade better .611 - z
immediate de very, as Well as to the fact
that thq supply here is light, and there is
but little offering. 'As will have been seen,
however, the, improvement, as yet, does
not *amount to much, as the advance,:is
very slight, and in regard to the intore,
opinions are very conflicting. ORO party
en , ertatns hopes that a reaction and better
prices has set in, while - another equally as
strong, contend' that big .ptice9dOring the
remainder of this season is not at all prob
able. '
BE 'fl
...
The market for' Refined was also very
quiet to-day, though September and Octo
ber are fully as strong as they were yester
day, while November and December - are
entirely nominal. There are some slight
apprehensions of an attempt to bring about
a "corner" between now and the first of.
October,rand ii is this that has stiffened the
market these months. There were but two
sales reported, one of 500 and the other
tOOO, both for October and , both at 29%c.
September is also quoted strong at the
same figure. November is nominal at
28 ..c, lind December at 28%c; a5l 'the Year,
11 .
seller's o ion, at 27;40, and same delivery,
buyer's op ion, at 29%0. . .
