FINANCE AND TRADE.
OFFICE OF THE PITTSBURGH GAZETTE,
MONDAY. September 28, 1868.
The feverish state of gold and govern•
meats for the past week, has at least ter
minated by a decided decline in gold from
144% on Monday, last to 1403, this after
noon, and in', a `corresponding decline of
bonds, especially the issues of 1862'5.
The cotton and grain crops being larger
than anticipated, have aided in sustaining
our government bonds in Europe, and as
the pending elections promise to be decided
without any political disturbances, a con
siderable decline in the premium of gold is
likely to take place before the end of the
year. In the meantime; fluctuations must
necessarily occur, and as no gold interest
is payable by the United States, before the
first of November, higher prices may rule
from time to time, as cash gold will contin
ue scarce. Private advices from Europe
are assuring the war cloud has passed, and
any rumors to the contrary are without
foundation.
Government bonds have been steady
without any animation. Large speculative
purchases took place on European account
at 11535, which are now covering at 113% to
114. The amount of governments in the
market is rather limited, and any material
decline would lead to an unusually high
market caused by contracts, which exceed
the stock in the market L-eventually high
er prices of governments must ensue.
With reference to 'the stock market a
fierce contest is now going on between
"bulls and bears." The bulls thus far
have in their favor an easy money market,
and the satisfactory earnings of nearly all
their roads, together with a large outstand
ing short interest, while the bears contend,
that most of the speculative stocks are al
ready 'selling above their real value, and
are trusting to the assistance of a more ac
tive money market-
New York Central is strong at 129%,
and bought up by men of capital. In Erie
a large short interest is outstanding, and
some of the directors are said to be short;
yet it is considered that the stock is very
cheap at the present price. Reading is
largely dealt in Boston and Philadelphia,
and is likely to go above par. Cleveland
& Pittsburgh has taken a decided stand as
a dividend paying stock-2 per cent. quar
terly—a rise is said will likely take place
to about 95, at which figure it is held by
large speculators. Rock Island seems to
bo at the lowest point, having just s:ood a
heavy attack of the bear party. North
Western shares are entirely managed by
flurrykeep and his friends, and although
the stock Is selling far above its real value,
yet the clique have an object in view. Fort
Wayne looks firm at 1093,1 to 110—a 2% per
cent. dividend will be declared October
first: Ohio and Mississippi is steady at 29.
Express shares are very firm, and a large
short interest is at plesent existing, which
will carry stocks higher.
Business is very dull, but money yet
easy, but what the end of the week will
bang is more than can be predicted.

PITTSBURGH PETROLEUM MARKET,
OFFICE OF TUE PITTIRIRGH GAZETTE,
MONDAY. September 28, 1868.
REMARKS.
Some exceptions it seems wore taken to
our report of the oil market on Saturday,
and some of the dealers affected to be very
indignant at that part of it which referred
to a bitter feeling existing between the
"bulls" and "bears." Now we still stand
by it, that is so far as the oil trade, alone, is
co. , cerned, and there is not a man i the
trade but what knows it is true; tho 01 at
the same tina the personal relation be-:
tween these parties arc, pleasant, an I all.
that could be desired. And right he e Nve
take occasion to remark that the oil men
as a . clas.s, are a highl3i honorable .of of
men, upright to the letter in their bush:moo
relations, and gentlemen in every sense of
the word. Many of them, however
i have
their capital invested in oil, and It s but
natural that they should work to promote
their own interests, even if by so doing
they should be classified among what is
commonly termed the "bulls" and "bears."
We havt• always endeavored to report the
business correctly, and while we may have
said things that were not agreeable to some
parties. we have done so tinier the convic
tion that whatever we said was true, and,
therefore, have nothing to take back. In
the oil business as in everything else, "the
truth is mighty and must prevail."
MI
The market for Crude was again rather
quiet to-day, not a single sate renorted.
Spot oil may be quoted at 11% to 12c, the
inside figure offered, and the outside figure
asked. The offerings at quotations do not
appear to be very large, while the demand
is by no means urgent. There are doubt
less some, as there nearly always are, who.
are short on maturing contracts of Refined,
and these parties will have to buy sooner
or later, unless they should secure them
selves by buying Refined. •
The Refuted market is quiet and weak,
with a drooping tendency. Sale of 500 bbls
September at 3134 c; I,oou-500 each Novem
ber and December at 2914 c, and it was re
ported late in the day that there was a sale
of 1,500 for September at 30Nc. This iast.
named, we give as we got it, not pretending
to vouch for us correctness.

devoid of any new or important character
istics; the demand for all of the leading ar
ticles is confined mainly to supplying im
mediate wants, while so far as prices aro
concerned, there are no material changes.

continued steady demand, prices are main
tained, ranging from 38 to 40c prime
packed, and 42 to 430 for choice ROIL

ny River brands at 51,75 to 51,80 to the

LARD OIL—Is reported firm at 51,20 for
No. 2, and $1,50 for No. 1.
HAY—Is firm and in limited supply,
which is owing mainly to the very bad
condition of the roads. Baled is reported
as hay.ng been sold to-day at 530 to $32;
these price., however, are not likely to be
sustained very long.

FLOUR—Spring Wheat Flour is weak

c , ,oice brauds. The mills continue to
quote at 510,50 for Extra Family, in
barrels, and 510,20. in sacks, and Double.
Extra at $ll, in barrels, and 510,70, insacks.
Rye Flour', 58,75 per bbl.
WHISKY—The market continues firm
and as but few of the distilleries are in .op
eration, in consequence of the high price of
grain, iris not likely that the supply, which
is now very light, will be much increased.
We quote at present rectified per gallon
51,80; highwines per gallon 51,40; half rye
and half corn per gallon 51,75; old M onon
