/FINANCE AND TRADE.
OFFICE OF THE PITTSBURGH GAZETTE,
WEDNESDAY, December 1,1868: I
Business in financial circles was rather
dull to-day; except some small transac
tions in Allegheny Valley Railroad bonds,
which changed hands from 82 to 83.--a sale
is reported at 85 by special agreement.
The gold market remained quiet at 135 X,
to 135, after having once touched 135.
There is more disposition to buy than to
sell, and time contracts are limited to pre
sent quotations in,small amounts. Those
who would feel, to operate for a decline for
commercial reasons are afraid to engage
lfirgCly on account of the risk, should a
further issue of three per cent. notes or
certlcates be issued or the Secretary of the
Treury's report be considered tmfavor
able to an early 'resumption of specie pay
ment. If the 'United States Treasury con
tinues to sell gold to within a few days of
the first of next month, then we may look
to loWer prices for gold in January. and it
is quite possible that as low a rate as 125
may be ' reached without the aid of any
bear 'movement by operators. The ex
change market is now Well supplied- with
cotton bills, and the decline of Five Twen
ties of 1862 being about equal with Euro
pean quotations, no apprehensions need be
entertained about the shipment of specie to
fetch over bonds on contracts.
Government bonds are,at stand-still, and
there is little ,dispositioi to either buy f or
sell largely. Bankers•buy within X, toiX
per cent. of board quotations, and - sell.
at 3e to 34 per cent. above, which in the
average, leaves them but X, per cent. net ,
profit. There is always, more inquiry for
bonds at an advance then there is on a de
alining market. ,
Stocks are dull and lower to-day, except
New York Central, which closed 2 per
cent. higher than the average sales of the
day. Fort Wayne Is_ steady, but all the
rest of the list rather weak. Express
iharea are improving.
Money easier, being less in demand, but
high rates are offered for long paper. Busi
ness is improving. '

OFFICE OF TEN PITTBURGH GA ZETTE,
WEDNESDAY, December 2, 1868.
There is a very important .problem in
the oil business just now; one, which in
the flurry of the excitement of the past
week or two, has been partially lost sight
of, and one which a good many dealers
would pay liberally to have solved. We
refer to the price of Crude oil during the:
next three or four months. It is said that
there, are two million, gallons of empty
tankage in the oil regions, here and at
Cleveland, and, of course, there is a desire
on the part of tank owners to fill these
tanks between now and spring. Hereto
fore, oil has generally ruled low during
the winter, and, of course s that is the time
selected to put away cheap oil, so:as to be
able to take advantage of the market dur
ing the spring and summer months, and
there is little or no risk in operating in this
way. The point with these parties now
is, will oil rule as low this 'winter as it did
last? this is the, problem to which wo have
referred, and it muat.bo acknowledged that
it is a hard one to' solve. 'lf we can take
the present as a criterion for the future,
.the question would have to be answered in
the negative. Stocks are generally con
ceded to be light, and the production is
falling off, though this is to be ekpectect at
this season of, the year; nor is it likely to
be increased much before spring, as the
spirit of development Usually lags during
cold weather, and, to follow this atilt fur-
tlic:r, the amend is constantly increasing.
Notwithstanding the market has been offish
for two or throe days, and prices arelow - er,
there seems to be an under current that
oil is destined to rule higher this winter
than it did last, though it by no means fol
lows that anything like, present prices will
be sustained._
CRIME.
The market for Crude is quietand,steady,
and while there is but comparatively little
doing, prices are pretty well sustained.

ber'being quoted down to 273 i to 28; sub

PITTSBURGH MARKETS•
01210 E OF THE PITTSBURGH GAZETTE,
WEDNESDAY, December 2, 1868. '
Dullness and stagnation continue to be
the order of the day .in business circles,
though hopes are still entertainedrthat an
improvement is near at hand. The expe
rience of the past, however, is calculated to
cause a feeling of distrust in 'regard to the
future, and as a consequence there is not
the same rash disposition manifested to
pitch in that there was three months ago.
This has been a remarkably hard
,season
for speculators, particularly in Grain, many
of whom have been forced to "bite the
dust" and we are apprehensive, that lin
less there is a reaction for the better, and
that, too, before long, others will be com
pelled to do likewise. We have no doubt
but what there is still considerable grain
being carried all over the country, bought
early in the season at prices that cannot be
realized now, and unless prices improve
and money becomes easier, the end is not
yet. We are in hopes, however that the
worst Is passed, and that relief will soon be
afforded to those whcitire now iikevery un-'
pleasant situation. ;
