JAMES T. BRADY & CO.
LEON. Cashier,
tin labint* amrttt
The money market is tightening, and
call loans range from
.6 to 7 per cent. for
prime collaterals or, governments. The
effect of this is already felt in the bond
market, and all government issues have
declined about one to one and a quorter
per _cent., except 18625, which declined
three per cent. The market for bonds is
rather weak all over Europe, and at pres
ent low rates of exchange and gold it would
be unprofitable to ship bonds.
Gold opened weak at 134 i, and remained
all day at that; the tendency is decidedly
downward, but the stock cliques have
managed to keep it up, and also keep the
money market well supplied in order to be
enabled to sell out their high priced stock.
The scarcity of money, which is not arti
ficial, will compel holders of long gold to
sell, and the government daily sales will
keep the market well supplied, that from
now till January, no interfence from lock
ing up of gold is apprehended; on the con
trary, the government - may anticipate
coupons towards the end of the months, as
foreign holders of bonds are but little ben
efitted by that.
Bonds are decidedly weak to-day, and a
farther heavy decline is expeCted, from the
large amount of bonds coming froni banks
and other institutions. So far as our ex
perience goes, whenever the New York
papers, and 'especially the Tribune, report
large purchases of bonds for investment by
savings banks, it is generally high time to
sell out; it is the last resort of the Nassau
street firm to get rid of their high priced
bonds.
E:2
The stock market, in sympathy with
the decline in 'gold and bonds and the
higher rate of interest, declined to-day
through the entire list. Port Wayne sel
ling at 110 g; North Western, Cleveland,
Ohio & Mississippi; the-Express shares and
every speculative stock felt the effect of
the condition of the money market, bet
more than this, fears are entertained that
money will be locked up in order to force
the Ene clique to sacrifice their stock, and'
therefore, turn i t ug it a heavy loss on them
instead of a handsome again, as was ex
pected. 'rhe clique has all the solid wealth
of Wall street against them. Some sales of
Allegheny Valley bonds have taken place,
it is said, as high as 82.

discussing theAnestion of specie re
sumption, the Cincinnati Otnamercied pre_
sects the practical diftleultien in the way
of resumption in this light;
' "The question is not,can the banks , of
the government resume, but can the debt:
ors to banks do so? And this question in
volves the other issue: Can these debtors
pay one hundred cents for seventy bor
rowed? A resumption does not change
the value of gold,lout it does that of the
current paper money, and it carries all se
curities and paper payable in it., We have
every day, as specie premium falls, a par
tial resumption, and we may tell its effects
by marking the results of the late fall Of
15 per cent. It made lame ducks, of all
who hold goods subject to a rise and fall
with the gold market, flour, cotton. oil'
speculators,
speculators, cto. Their paper in banks was
to be carried, their capacity to pay green
backs grew smaller each day, as their
goods represented each day fewer green
backs.
"Another effect was, greenbacks, and all
paper standing on- a greenback basis, be
came daily more valuable. in September,
when geld was only 160, the respective
value of a Cincinnati bond to 'United
States 6 per cent. was as 85 to 100; in No
vember, gold at 123 • and oar city bonds
-were worth 90 and the United' States
bonds but 105. If we resumed, the re
spective proportional difference in value
would be less yet.
"A 16 per cent. fall in the geld premium
changes the proportional relation of at
least 11300,000,000 of wealth, and it is this
relative change which is the real crisis in
the money market. The distribution of
wealthis changed, not tts absolute quality.
This valuation rests on the basis that the
relative value of 52,000,000,000 ofgoods are
changed; they pay In greentaokst when

gold is 135, 8300,000,000 less of an indebt
ness than when gold is 150.
"A,specie resumption raises therefore,
simply the ,inquiry, whether the debtor
class can stand a change of wealth equal to
6600,000,000.
"We hold it to a mischievious error, to
take only . so-called money or currency into
account in determining on a specie re
sumption. The capacity of our debtors to
stand the loss involved in changed moneyed
relations is the only question. Let• the
holders of flour, cotton, etc., answer this
question."

a general way. Some Of our grain dealers
,
are trying to persuader themselves that the
grain market is showing indications of an
improvement, but thus far, we do not see
much to warrant any such conclusion. .
The demand for almost everything is re
stricted entirely to supplying immediate
wants, and there is no indication of any
thing like a speculative movement, nor is
it likely that there will be until money be
comes considerably easier.

PITTSBURGH PETROLEUM MARKET,
OFFICE OF TEM PITTSBIIRGIT. GAZETTS,
TUESDAY. December 1 , 1868.
The market was again very quiet to-day,
and•devoid of any new or really important
features. Refined has still , further de
clined, particularly for early deliveries,
while Crude' appears to be holding its
own. Private telegrams from the east re
ported that there were no buyers in either
Philadelphia or New York for liecember,
and, but little inquiry 'for futures. It
iwould appear that those large New York
buyerl, who, by their sudden and unex
-pected dash, kept the market in such a
wonderful state of commotion for the past
week or two, have retired for the present,
and we have reason to believe that if they
are satisfied with the result, dealers here
have no reason to be dissatisfied. They
run the price up from 28 to 8234 r, between
which figures over two hundreds, \ possibly,
two hundred and fifty thousand\barreis
\
were `sold by, refiners andidealers here.

The market, as already intimated, was ,
exceedingly genet to-day, and compared
with yesterday, prices have still further
declined, especially for early deliveries. It
was reported that 29 was the beat offer that
could be obtained -for December, against
31y, to 31% yesterday. Sale of a line from
January to March reported at 29, so that 29
may be regarded as the standard price for
almost any delivery within the next four
months.
