TUESDAY, February 23, 1869. 5
The gold.market is in an unsettled
condition, opening at 132% and declined
t0132V, and closed stronger at 1323(,@
132 r%. Tiler? is a general disposition to
cover gold for either short sales or mer
chandise sold: In the oversold condition
of the market and the uncertainty of the
course of our bonds, in Europe, it ,may at
any time become necessary to ship gold
to' cover our indebzenness abroad,ln
which case a rapid rise would be inevit
able. The Herald, representing the
extreme bear side, readily admits a
sudden rise in gold, whilst the World,
in the interest of the bull cliques, warns
its readers to sell anything they do not
possess, especially gold; what the bull
clique can do need not be said, when the
past three months have shown it re
peatedly.
In governments there was a dull and
and rather lower market; sympathizing
with the decline in gold, and an indis
position to buy, on the presumption that
our Bonds are going to be par•in gold, or
better, or in other words, that they will
command a premium in Europe which
will cover the discount on greenbacks
and more. We are now on the eve of
the Spring business, which hag suffered
already by the decline in gold and more
so has the export interest suffered. The
merchants need accommodations and
and the bankshave not the means to ac
commodate them, being overloaded with
stocks and securities. It hetionies thus
evident that this curtailing power of
the banks will revert on there= Sources of
private capitalists, who, getting good
interest. will - withdraw their deposits
from banks and manage their own in
vestments, Taking everYthirig Into con
sideration, it is quite likely that bonds
have nearly regaled their higheit point,
and a general detillnkfirpriqs,ibased on
gold. at 14634, would hurl - - dotvir stocka
and bonds - alike:, ,
In stooks the Market is ' extremely dull,
and heavy in all the Erie connections,
while some western roads ire higher,
like Fort Wayne, Michigan-Southern;
even Cleveland Is firm at ninety; North
west and St. Paul shares are all firm;
Express shares are quit and lower. The
stagnation of business must curtail the
,receipts of these amipardes, whilst their
expenses are increased. Through a pro
tracted business season people are as
anxious to save in freights as In any
thing else, and the money packages are
coming in more aptgingly; that business
is now done by the Postoffice, ands by
drafts, being greatly , facilitated through
the Naticniia
, lianks. In local stocks a
dull market• tuts to be reported. The
report that the Penna. Central Railroad
would issue new stook after April next
had frightened a few timid holders, but
on second thought they find it rather
an adviMbige. The property will be
more et:duo:toed in yalue by its through
connections, whilst the receipts will be
fully equal td a ten per cent. dividend
on the entire Sitars Capital
Business is extremely dull, as is always
the case.wheri the currency value is &a
turb94 decline In gold- -.Money
scarcer.

Money is very easy to-day; demands _
on call are freely met at 5 ®6c on Govern
ments and 6®70 on stock; collateral
prime disConnts, 7 ® Bc. The railway
war on western freight between the
New York Central, Erie and Penn
sylvania .Central on one side, and
the fast freight lines on the other, to-day
caused contracts to be made at 25@X`e
per hundred, through to Ch cago. These
are the - lowest rates ever mkiie, and - the ,
railroads seem determined to extermin-
at transportation comparno*F . The
Shipment
_ •
of currency to the South and
West have ceased, and remittances are
expected from the former unless the cot
ton trade revives. Sterling is quiet st - ff
®9%c for sixty -days, and' ' 934®19%,c for
sight billi. Gold is weak and lower;
opened at 13333 and closed at , 132%.
Loans are made at 6 Cr 7 per cent. for car
rying. Clearances o-a amount to 1
sixty-three millions. t
Isisnot believed
the combination who recently held the
price above 135 have entirely unloaded,
purpose encouraged a. decline for the
purpose of buying more, in order to
make a low average for the entire
amount. .

PETROLEUM MARKET.
OFFICE OF PITBOURGII. GAZETTE,
TIJEaDA.T, Feb. 23, 1869. $
This has been imother comparatively
quiet day in the oil business, the opera
tions in the aggregate being unusually
light, and the mar .434 apparently, is dull
and offish with `'a , drooping tendency.
There seems to 'b an absence.. of that
buoyaney which h so long prevailed,
. .
and the specul e feeling ii - not. so
strong as it, has has een, giving conclu
sive evidence that the market is weaker,
and that there is th e
apprehension of a
.atill farther decline, and whit is true of
this market, is •equally applicable, 10
thoie of Philadfilphia and New 'York
buyers, for the trine being, appear =to be
scarce everywhere, while, at the same
time, it is but proper to remark, that
sellers generally, are not, as yet, dis
posed to make any important - . conces
sion in order to effect sales. As we noted "
the other - day, it i s thought that the bull'
movement is not dead, only resting a
little, and that they still possess vital
ity enough to put the mai ket back
whenever they ar so disposed. .
CRUDE—The market is quiet and a
little weak ; but without iniiiortant
change. Sale 2,000 bbls till August,
seller, at 163.6; - 1,000 same option till
July Ist at 1634, and two lots of 500
each on spot at 16%.
REFINED—The market was dull and
weak to-day, hot a single sale reported,
and compared with yesterday prices are
a shade lower. February was held at 37
eta; and.we are cognizant of an order
having been sent to Philadelphia to sell
500 WWI at that figure,-but it did not go
.through. Late in the day soy 'was the
best offer that could be obtained,• and
March was ,quoted at 36%. Porthe hsta
months, there is nothing doing.

The weather is rather too inclement fbr
active trade, and Consequently there is
only a moderate demand for textile fab
rics, at prices showing no important
change. me market is rather stronger
however, under the improved tone of
new material. "
