OFFICE OP THE PITTSBURGH GA_Zt./.3.E., TUESDAY, December 15, 186 S. Money being easier, in New York, the borid, , 4;stock and gold markets were all firtner and higher to-day. Gold had touched 135 A and advanced to 135%, with a very firm feeling under large purchases since the recent decline. CashhgOld is quite plenty, but the shipments to Europe , and the South average over a million dol lars per week, which takes all the surplus gold, or the amount on the market out of the hands of speculators, and reduces the Amount •avalfable for speculation to what banks-choose to let out liefore January next'. Although there is no cause for a rise of gold at present, yet'the feeling in regard to !European pOlicies Prevents spec- ulatiaus for a decline, and keeps the prec- 1 ious metals now hoarded - out of I the market. Government' bonds seem to have touched bottom for ,the present, and although they did not iPuterially advance to-day; lees bonds are cslfered for sale. which keeps the supply on the market close up to the de mand. More inquiry is made for old 1862 bends at the present low rates, more for the purpose of speculating in them than for neimahent investment. The stock market is higher and firm; in Erie, New York Central, Cleveland, Fort Wayne and Ohio 4.4: Mississippi; there is also an- improvement in all the western stocks, which are more bouyant, since the apparent stringency has passed over. The stringeney was artificial, caused by ,the attempt of thelnanagers of the Now York roads for •the 'purpose of getting posses sion; of as-much stuelt- , ,of_the Cleveland road'as possible. Tho consolidation of the Pennsylvania Central and Fort Wayne railvads have put the New York roads to the necessity of finding new direct connec tions with the far west, which they, hope to accomplish through the Atlantic & Groat Eastern and the Cleveland roads with Ohio connections. Money remains quiet, but in good de mand. Businessflull. Closing quotations as received byPh. R.

Th stock of grain and flour in store hero now is in the aggregate less than half ' w h a ;, was at olio time during the fall, and. capital 'held in them the whole ar:.! ° " t of is probably not a irL i lisin and a half of dol- Jars, which would be 0n. 1 ,7 about one-third of what was so held a short alue ago. The packing business has, however, absorbed all the surplus capital released by the tie crease of these products, and is the item& diate cause of the stringency in money just at present. This, however, is expected to workgts own cure in a short timo, as mer chants aro beginning to find :Imo little im provement -in making collections in the country as one of its results already. For tunately ler all business interests In thi.9 part of. the.-" Country, there was an active eastern'. dereand for 'provisions from the.. l very beginning of the peeking semen, which has caused earlier shipments than usual, and has returned much of the capi tal to be used again:' but for this. money would havhbeen much tighter now. Even as it is, a good many of the, wholeaale mer chants are compelled to ask for renewals of paper falling due, though there are not so many instances of this kind as a month ago. Upon the whole though the money market is 'tighter, budness is in a much healthier condition than b few weeks since. —Closing quotations received by Jamea T.
