S The anticipation iif 'ianintrY coupons by the . government, has had a teridencyto de.., press the premium' on' *old to=day; - find 134 k have been the closing quotitions, against 135, early to -day. The scarcity of money for borrowers on gold colliderals, which in' most instances amounts to one fourth ner cent. per day, is a furthercause of the dWine, and likely Will infinence thp premium, tuitil the 'qnarterly teak state meat is over. As to the future price of gold opinions are; unanimously for higher quotations on account of the still large im ports, and the slow arrivals of cotton at the seaport's from thOT interior. Governnient bonds were very strong in the afternoon, and had advanced from - One-half to three• fourths per cent: - ,Tho =demand does not come from invostoneyjautfrom_spoculators who expect' an iriereaSeildernand for bondP after January first, whilst :present purcl a'= sea gives them the gold interest. In stocks little more can be said than that ta i l the different Railroad stocks are duped, and that the present rise is an ar ;t111clal one, ItrhiCh may react at any: mo ment.' In our local stock market we have to report an unusual closeness of money, and the demand far exceeds The supply; the banks do not discount 'any at alloind the brokers ask high rates for money at pres ent, which is cheerfully paid, as it is con sidered a great favor to borrow money at any price. Business is dull and little doing, prior to • January settlements. Closing quotations as received by Ph. R.
