Gold was dull and lower to-day; the high•
.
eat point reached yesterday Wu 1353 f, and
the lowest to-day 134 X, with little doing.
The extreme scarcity of 'money had a .
de
pressing influence on gold and bonds.
Governments ire.:lower to-day for the
entire list; Eighty-one's declined X; Five
Twenties of 1862, %; do 1864, si; do 1865, X,
and 1857 bonds %, per. cent.. The fear that
in addition to the natural stringency of
- money, resort will be had to the locking
up process, prevents all those who have to
barrow money from making 'any engage
mentsat present; besides, bonds arel at pre
sent two per cent. higher than they were
at the same time last year.
Stocks are still very bouyanl and Erie
has advanced 1 per cent.; North 'Western, 2 '
per cent. Fort Wayne is strong at 110 X.
Ohol's are strong at from 303 to 30. X.
Pacific Mail closed strong at 149. Reading
is strong at 97X. Cleveland dr. Pittsburgh
is neglected.
Our local money market reflects the
scarcity of , money and stocks, and bonds
are now offered that could not be ixinght a,
few weeks ago at from 1 to 3 per cent
higher.
Money is held at 10 per cent. for good
paper, and the best gold edged would not
pass outside of bank below 8 per cent.

PITTSBURGH LIVE STOCK MARKET.
PENN'A CENTRAL STOCK YARDS,
WEDNESDAY, December 2 1868.,
The market'for Cattle has been rather
dull during the past week, the number
sold since the date of our last report,
(Friday evening last) only aggregating 421
head. The arrivals have,been -light, and
while the, suptoly4 was limited, •it was,
nevertheless, prettyr:irrell up the de
mand, there being but comparatively few
buyers in attendance. There is usually a
dull market, however, at this particular
season of thp year, as operators generally
remain. at. .•home, during!. the - holidays,
and this accounts for the very light volume
of business this week. Prices, compared
with last week, have undergone no quota
ble change, ranging all the way from 4
to Soilsr scalawags to , prime fat steers:
AAA: Week lowers). droves.cif:extra changed
hands at 834 c, and, we presume, that the
same kind ofstock would have brought
that price this week. The sales reported
were aa follows:

Wintrirenair, December 23, 1888. S
The market continues pilot and a little
dull, but without important change. There
was next to nothing done in either Crude
or Relined and there seems to be but 'lit
tle disposition manifested to either buy or
sell. The operators who have been in Phil
adelphia for several days past on business,
supposed to be connected, in some 'ray or
other, with an expected "corner," have
nearly all returned, and this being the case,
it is reasonable to anticipate 'an improve
ment in business. From lateinformation
it would appear that the "balls" and
"bears" had a very interesting time on
'Monday, and ij said, that up to nine
o'clock p. m. on Monday ifight,.there were
between fifteen and twenty thousand bar
rels short. Between that and half past
ten it was all delivered, and it is said that
all the oil called for was delivrred on time,
though some of the "shorts" were obliged
to borrow until the next day, when they
turned in and bought enough to'let them
out clean and clear.
It would appear that we were slightly in
error in our notice the other day of a ten
