TUESDAY. February 17, 1869.
Gold remains steady at 135%. The
active demand for-money was expected
. .
to have a depressing influence on the
premium, but the parties who hold large
amounts on speculation, seem to be de
termined to hold out for their own pri
ces. It is now apparent that the ship.
meats of bonds were much smallerithan
it was reported, and the rise here was
due to an over speculation on the part of
the short sellers. Should it turn out that
there is no surplus of exchange on the,
market by Saturday, gold will have to:
be shipped and a rise in the premium
would be inevitable.
The opening price of bonds was about
% to % per cent. lower than last night's
closing quotations, but at noon the de
decline amounted as much as 1% per
cent. for the entire list. New 65's were
,
very. weak and dull. Stocks declined
about 2 per" cent for the entire list on ac
count of the scarcity of money;
Market closed weak and dull with a
downward tendency.
Business dull and money easy.

—The passage by the House, of the I,
Hooper bill, closing all the gold loans,
will have the tendency to advance our
bonds alifostd, and give an', increased de
manclibt shipment. A bill passed - to
stop secret sales of gold, and also one
prohibiting- loans.- upon. greenbacks.
These tvlo fatter', zlce. Mudb..to
prevent the locking up greenbacks.
The bill prohibiting the banks from cer
tifying cheeks also passed ;the House,
but is of doubtful utility; -The' bill
changing the bank statement from a
quarterly to a monthly statement would
not prevent the present' lockingg• up of
greenbacks. The system under which our
Slate banks were, operated, giving the
Controller the power to call for a state?.

countries, our bonds are current in the
markets of .the world, and are ,held by

For instance, the great proportion of the

countries, no account of which is made
to the government in the way of taxes,
and, as a matter of course, the Internal
Revenue Commissioner's report cannot
and does not show the
,quantity of oil
made in Pittsburgh. We would also
state, for the inforination of that paper,
that nearly, If not entirely, one-third of '
the entire product of crude in the Ven

leaving the other two-thirds for the rest
of the world, of which Cleveland gets its
proportion, we do not know hew much,
but feel`pretty well satisfied that it iris
nothing like the one-third of the whole.
In regard to the insinuations about "en
ormous frauds" the less the Herald says"
the better. Our , refiners, as a class;;; - are
above reproach, pat , . their taxes justly
and honestly, and have no desire to cheat
the government or anybody else. We
claim, therefore. that Pittsburgh, so far
as regards the oil trade, is considerably
ahead of Cleveland in regard to quantity
made, and, possibly, in quality.

PITTSBURGH MARKETS.
OFFICE OF PITTSBURGH GAZETTE,
TUESDAY, February 16, 1868.
The general markets are dull and
neglected, with a very light volume of
business, and prices generally are weak
with a drooping tendency., Sugars are
considerably excited, as the stock in
New York is reported lighter than it has
been for twenty-five years. This Board-
ty is caused partially by the wet weather
in Cuba, which has injured the crop, but
mainly by the revolution, which pre
vented the planters from taking proper
care of the cane, and it is said that there
are Cuban orders -in New York for
Sugars for hoine consumption. Within
a week prices have advanced about three
cents., and still evince an, upward tenl
dency.
