The gold market - was ultimately strong and weak, opening. at 136%, and closing at 135%, with a larger apeculative business. A powerful party is at work to deliress the ' price and also bring down bonds far the purpose to divest capitalists from the stock market. th 3 accumulation of 'coin in the Vodka will likewise have a tendency to de press the premium at least for the present month; also, it is'generally conceded that higher quotations will ensue during Feb nary, when the custom dues have to be paid on warehouse importations. In Governments a heavy business was done, and prices advanced 'about % per cent. and %on old bonds. The entire bus iness is speculative, and bona fide inves tors keep aloof at present quotations; the Probability is that bonds can be bought at a decline of at least one per cent. before the week is over. Stocks are firm and higher at the close with coinsiderable excitement in NeW York Central, Fort. Wayne, Pacific Mail and North Western. The Erie'connections are dull, and were lower early in the day; at the close they sympathised with the gen eral advance. Express shares are firm, and local securities at present quiet. Money more in demand, but business only dragging along. Closing quotations as received by Ph. R.

The New York Contnter dal List sera: • "It is held that a large amount of money is kept out of circulation, and in many sec tions of the conniry a stringency in money is produced through the banks keeping control of all surplus currency by paying a small interest on sums deposited with 'them. "Paying interest on deposits is with out doubt fraught with mischief. It is a bonus offered to secure business, which has 'genetally proVed unprofitable in the long run to those banks which have practiced it. Some years' ago, a stipulation was made that no member of the Clearing-house of thiecity should payy, interest on the balance of anV • accotuat. This k agreement held'good fair some time, bit the competition of, ac counts tempted the banks again to offer the bonus of interest on deposite, and the agreement:inn through; the .Park bank; we believe, tieing'the fi rst to break the com .pact,•iilnce -which time it has 'become the ,rulerother than the ,eXception, though a few of the most conservative banks stilire faseleadopt that method of doing bust peas.; Nearly all bank 'managers i admit that the system is not ,or 4. ,unpro fi table, •but'bne of the main Obstructions to the prom. distribution of the currency throughout the country. But any law pro l bluffing the banks from paying interest on deposits shoUld 'unquestionably . extend extend to private bankers and trust 'conmaides„ for, if these latter were le ft tree to offer a bonus on balancee, they could hardly fail to itio nopoliie a large portion of the business, to the manifest detriment of the hanks."

There seems to be a dead lock in the oil business,,and this has been the case for two or three days. The market has reacted slightly, just - enough tOplace it in such a condition, that it is almost impossible to do anything. The brokers report hard times, nothing for them to do, and as a conse quence no chance to make a commission. Operators, who a few days since were will ing to buy at almost any price, are now un willing to take hold at a decline, being ap prehensive that it is a little risky, and that for the present at least it is prudent to sail close to shore.,. We are cognizant of a prominent - operator having made the re mark the other day, that he wouldnot buy if he was sure the price would go to a dol lar .and while this assertion can be taken with considerable * allowance, there is no doubt but what this feeling represents the sentiments of a large , number of operators. They took advantage of the recent advance realizing a very handsome margin, and are now disposed to hold off in anticipation that prices will again get down, and then they will go in and place themselves In a position to take advantage Of the next flurry, when it comes. CRUDE. The market was decidedly mixed to day, and notwithstanding we made d-li gent inquiry, we were unable to find any one who could give an intelligent or accu rate quotation. In order to cover the views or all, .we give the range at . l4 to 16c; some were unwilling to sell below the outside figure, while there were buyers who would not oiler above 14c.1 It is prob- • able, however, that 14% to 150 comes a lit—. tle closer to the spirit of the market, as we understand that there were offers to sell at 15c and offers to buy at,l4Xc. The only thing we have to report Ls a "put" of 1000 bbls, to be delivered six months from date, at 14c, and one hundred and fifty , dollars. RE Fl NED Was also very quiet and 'dull", 'though, compared with Saturday, prices nave un dergone no quotable change. The only sale reported was 500. hbls, January, at 32.1.4 c, and we heard of an offer to buy Jan uary and February together at 32i4c. Jan uary to June quoted at 34c, and March to June at 34 to 34;4c.
