FINANCE AND TRADE, OFFICE OF THE PITTSBURGH GAZETTE, SATURDAY. September 26, 1868. The gold market is running steady at 1444: opening at 142,4, declining to 142 y, and closing at 1421. Gold is scarce and commands 1-32 per cent. per day to loan, yet the bull clique is powerless. The rise of our securities in the London market to 72g and 76 in Frankfort enables bankers 0 ship bonds where commercial 'bilis are insufficient to meet the demand for ex change, and importers are not disposed to buy gold now for remittance to Europe. The favorable prospects of electing a Re publican government in October and No vember strengthens the national credit at home as well as abroad, and tends to bring down ' the: premium on gold, although the heavy imperts and the small exports would not warrant a heavy decline.. Should, however, gold decline materially before November next, then a reaction at the end of the month to a higher premium than the present is almost inevitable, and •we might witness a recurrence of last sum mer's market. Governments, although higher in Europe, are dull here and the larger dealers keep aloof from heavy engagements; none but small parcels change hands. It is expected that during the week the money market will be closer and on that account bonds will decline. The demand for export is . Storks are firmer, closing buoyant; Erie, New York Central, North Western and Cleveland are the features of the day. Express stocks are firm' and higher.

Last year, at harv,st time, the markets were entirely bare of wheat, and prices enormously h gh, and farmers hurried their pain to mar ket, and it was shipped Immediately to supply the pressing needs of consumers. This year the large crop has caused a de cline of 25 per cent. in prices, and the farm era refuse -to sell, hoping for higher prices in . 'the winter, and will probably hold on until they see their hopes are futile. Specula tors are also waiting, and are not willing to purchase at present figures. Added to this, heavy rains have prevailed at the west during the past two weeks, making it im possible to move grain to market, so that although the roads at present aro doing less business than last , year, their pros pects fora heavy busineSs during the win ter and spring are promising, and their earnings for the whole . year will show a , heavy increase over last—N.

PITTSBURGH PETROLEUM MARKET. OFFICE OF THE PYrYEURGIT GAZETTE, SATURDAY, September 26, 1868. GENERAL nEviEw. At no time during the past year has the market been subject to such violent fluent tions as it has been during the past weok. During the first three days Refined ad vanced front 2834c€a„29c to 33 cents; since then it has declined to 3 1Mc@l31:; ; ;c, sales having been made at these figures to-day. And the feeling 'between the "bulls" and ' , bears" has become .s.l bitter, that an out sider passing by,when the opposing. parties are assembled on the curbstone, would al most imagine that it nits a political meet ing or a row. The receipts of Crude daring the week were 16,300 bbls against 22,824 bbls last week; receiptS•sime January Ist, 781,336 bbis, Exports 'of Refined 16,900, against 15,236 bbls lasnweek; since Jan uary Ist, 494,833 bbls, against 476.473 same time last.year, showing nn increase of Is,- 360 bbls. The sales for the week were 66,- 200 against 95,500 la-t week. enupt: Notwithstanding the decline in Refined, Crude, as yet, does not appear to sympa thize much, the sales to-day, compared with those of Friday evening, showing but very little change.. We can report 3.000 bbls, on spot, at 12c; 1.000 each October, November and December at 12c; also, 1,000 bbls on a bluff,' at 1214 c; for October and one hundred dol'ars, and there was an other sale - similar to the above pendingwhen we lett, but it had not been fully decided— we will give the result in our next 'report. Last evening there was a sale of 1,000 bbls on spot, at'l2e; also, 1,000 bbls at 1234 c. EMIZE3EI The Refined market has still further de-' clip: d, being off fully half a cent, compared with Friday. Sale of 500 bbls for Septem ber at 31;4c; 500 do at 311 c; 500 do at 344 c, and 500 each for October, November and December at 30c. The market, although quiet, closed steady, there being. so far as we could learn, no further disposition to make concessions hi order to effect sales. RECEIPTS CRUDE (ill.

The general markets have been quiet and rather dull during the past week, and de void of any important characteristics worthy of special notice. The inclement condition of the weather had a tendency to retard business somewhat, and besides the grand political demonstrations on Wed nesday and Thursday absorbed the time and attention of our merchants and mann- factures, and, as a consequence, business was considerably neglected.
