FRIDAY, December 11, 1868. 1
Money being exceedingly scarce, and
seven per cent. and a commission on call
loans at New York, the entire market has
suffered a heavy decline. in bonds and
stocks. The former hvaing sold at three
fourths per cent. off from the early quoia-
Sons, and three-fourths per cent. since last
Saturday. The decline t wee moat marked
in the new issues of 11365, 1867, 1868, and
eighty-one's, whilst tho old bonds stood
comparatively firm. The firm on the bear
aide of the bond market having succeeded
prior to this date to unload their dear gold
on the public, have had an opportunity
also to depre4a bonds by their large gold
sales. The gold market was excited du
ring yesterday and Wednesday by two
prominent houses, the leaders in the gold .
room_ on supposed rumors that the Su
preme Court of the United States would
soon declare the legal tender act as uncon
stitutional, and,leonsequently, greenbacks
are not legal tender, and the uneasy feel
ing in Europe regarding the future peace of
the courry, but all the gold these houses
bought was sold by thep. twice over
througb their brokers. We have all along
quoted the market in gold weak, and have
no 'hesitation to pronounce it. so yet,.
,although gold may sell to-morrow at 136%.
The high quotations for gold is the effect

up the k nominal quotations of their fancy
stocks; a heavy decline in gold would de

Wayne r Sorth Western common and pre
(erred, Rock Island, Milwaukee and
St. Paul, and all the speculative stock,
and even the New York roads, like Harlem
and Hudson River, would heavily decline,
the margins put up on them would prove
insignificant, and much of the stock would
come on the market that seems to be held
now for investment. The dealings in all
kind of speculative shares are much re ,
stricted, and little is done except in the
fancies which are daily changing hands
with a little , ' profit there and a small loss
elsewhere.
Express shares are very strong, and if
money was not so very scarce we might
see a sharp upward movement in them.
Money is absolutely tight here, the banks
limiting their discounts to favors of thi3ir
best customers. tliusiness continuer rather
dull. •

—The Chicago Republican, of Wednes
day, says: The weather is clear and cold.
and out-door movement's are generally
more lively. Business is without' decided
animation In any department, and com
plaints are still to be heard of the back
wardness of trade. At the banks the de
mand for leans ' ismore than eqbal to the
supply, and the money- market - is uni
formly quotedelose. Packing is being car
ried on an extensive scale, and the call for
accommodation from thin branch of trade
is very large, but is generally met, inas
much as packers only want money during
the winter months. Oar goods merchants
are quite urgent in their demands, as it is'
almost impossible for them to make in
-terior collections. Spsoulators are nu-m
-emo and want money badenougb, but
this claits'of dealers are invariably re fused
accommodations, and hsveto seek the open
market. Rates of interest`remain as pre
vionsly noted; 10 per cent.'per annum'.

PITTSBURGH PETROLEUM MARKET. .
OFFICE OP THE Pirrsußoxt GarsTra„
Fulney, Doi:ember 11, 1868.
As the oil market is in a very interesting
condition just now, a little history may
not be out of place. This day one year
ago, Crude sold at 7to 8c; Refined at 2535
to 260 for December, and 61c, buyer's op
tion, all 1868. On December 28th, Refined
sold at 2:lc, on spot, and a "line" at 233ic '
for January; 240 for February, and 243ic
-for March. On December 31st, Crude sold
on spot at 6% to 7c, and Refined, same .
de
livery. at 21 to 21 3 tc. Thus, it will be seen,
that prices are much higher than they
were at this time last year, and the market
is strong, and, if we may be allowed the
expression, decidedly "bullish." The pro
duction, although it has fallen off consider
ably, keeps up well for the season,' being
estimated at about ten thousand barrels
per day, while the actual demand for ship
ment abroad, as is always the . case at this
time year, is, and has been for some weeks
past, comparatively light. Stooks both
here and in the oil:regions and at Cleve
land, are pretty well reduced, but there'll;
said to be a slight accumulation in the
east. The excitement which bas.prevalled
for the past day or two cannot be attributed
to any increased,dentand on the part of ex
porters, but is owing almost entirely to the
manipulations of a New York clique, which
it is expected 'will attempt to "cor
ner" the market about the twenty-first.
As we noted yesterday, several at
tempts have been made, within the: past ,
two or three years to "corner" the market,
but they have nearly always resulted in a
fizzle, and while this one may be an excep-
lion, we think, to say the least. that it .is
very doubtful. Something usually 'trams
pires about the last day to knock the whole
thing "into a cocked hat," and the "corn
erera" generally fare worse than the "corn
ered.'
CRUDE.
The Crude market continues active and
firm and with continued large sales, prices
are fully sustained. The sales- were: 1,000
bbls, (40 to 40) first - six months of next
year, sellers option, at 12%x;:1,000 (40 to 45)
at 1234; 1,000 (40 to 46) . February to August
seller, at 1234; 2,000 all next year, seller, at
1234; 5,000 April to December, seller at
42%; 2,000 seller all next year, at 1234; 8,00 0
January to June (40 to 46) seller, at 123 f.
Thtts it will be seen that 1234 is the stand
ard price for spot; December, and all next
year, sellers option. Buyers option, all
1869, may, be quoted at 16, with no offers to
sell. -
REFINED.
The market, for Refined continues very
much excited and irregular, and prices
fluctuate from a half to a cent every hours,
particularly for early deliveries. •1n
forenoon it was-reported that sales had
been made for next ten days delivery at
32c, while in the afternoon the same de
livery was offered at 3114 e, without finding
buyers. Sales of 1000 each January to
June at 31340; 1000, seller, to the 25th inst.,
at 31; and 500, deliverable on the Ist,
at 3134 c.
