FRIDAY, February 12,'1868. S
The gold market keeps steady but
dull, fluctuating from 135 to 138%, with
an increase of short sales. The bull op
erators are discouraged, and have most
ly sold out their! gold awaiting for a
more favorable turn of the market, and
towards the end of the month may
unite with the bears in bringing down
quotations still more. The daily ship
ments of bonds and other securities have
increased so much recently that any
shipments of coin will thereby be obvi
ated, and our trade balance so unfa
vorable, will be entirely liquidated by
the sale of securities.
Government bonds whicli looked dull
for a time, on Thursday, were very
strong, and advanced about one-half per
cent. for new 18655, and X on 18675; old
1865 s are nearly up to the 18625,
and 1831's Command over .114, the
highest point yet reached, a large short
interest in 1867 forced parties to buy at
any price, and the demand from Europe
being steadily increased makes dealers
anxious to lay in stock in time.
Stocks are dull, and the interest cen
ters are entirely in Government bonds;
there is no disposition whatever to ope
rate in stocks at present prices, yet par
ties dealing in them look to much higher
prices, and the upward movement may
set in at, any moinent.
Business is improving, and money less
stringent. •

—The attempt to tack upon the Hoo
per bill a section allowing the recon
version of registered into coupon bonds,
is stimulated by private rattier than
public interests. - Registered 1862 bonds
are unavailable for shipment, the foreign
demand bidtig_ exclusively for coupon
bonds. Should this seciion become a
law, a few speculating, holders of regis
tered bonds would be able to make a
difference by converting into coupon
bonds and replacing them with the later
issues which sell at. lower prices, and
this is , the whole secret - of the pressure
upon Congress for this measure. The
chief objection to this exchange is the
enormous expense of reopening. the'pub
lio printing offices -to furnish the bonds
as the interests of speculators may re
quire. The expense would probably
not be less than $1,000,000 per year.
which in the next twenty years would
amount to the sum of $20,000,000 of ad
ditional taxes to be raised front tbe'peo
ple, who have sufficient burdenao bear
now. No public interest sniffers from
the present state of affairs, and it is to be
hoped that Congress vrl4 not assent to a
stock jobbing measure of this sort.—

PETROLEUM MARKET.
OFFICE OF PITTSBURGH GAZETTE,
, FRIDAY, February 12, 1869.
The market was comparatively easy
to-day, but little done and not very much
of a disposition manifested to do any
thing. • The brokers generally seem to
be busy,, but they were unable to accom
plish much, buyers and sellera being too
far apart. Refiners do not seem disposed
to sell unless they can get extreme
prices, while the marker, is not in a
condition •to justify this, and, as a
consequence, the volume of, business
was comparatively light. February is
firm, with considerable , inquiry; with
sales at s slight advanceover yesterday's
prices, while beyond this month and
March, there seemed to be, a slight weak
ness manifested with mOreiellers than
buyers at quotations. Crude was a little
weak ; for inimediate delivbry,,
lines running from April to June, and
July to
,December were iu requesyt
former quotations.,l
CRUDE. N
The most remarkable feature we have
to notice connected with the Chide mar
ket Is a slight decline in spot oil, which
sold down to 18,and,late in the afternoon,
was offered at that figure (40 to 45) with
oat finding buyers.. The sales were 500
bbls spot at 18N: 350 at 18, and 1,000 each
month July to September at I,S*4. We
are cognizant of au offer to buy April to
June at 18y, and an offer to sell Febru
ary to December, 1,000 each month, at 18.
REVINEID
As already intimated; February was a
shade stronger than yesterday with saleS
of three 500 bbl lots at 39, which is an
advance of from a quart_r to a half cent.
Sellers options, running from March,to
June or July to December, were qufited
a little weak at 33. Buyers. option, next
six months, 39, and same option all
year, 42.
