FINANCE AND TRADE.
OFFICE OF PITTSBURGH GAZETTE,
TUESDAY. March 2, 1869. S
There is every indication that gold has
touched its lowest point for the present.
It t urns , out that the shipment of bond
were much smaller than was reported,
and, as a consequence, coin will soon
hate to be shipped to pay for imports and
the remitting for March interest due to
Europe, which is estimated at from two
and a half or three million dollars. The
general Impression that gold would
touch a much lower point than it actu
ally reached so far, kept importers and
speculators from buying. The passage
of the Finance bill was also discounted
and should it not pass in the shape
amended by the Senate, it will have to
lay over for the new Congress, when its
passage may be delayed. In such an
event a rapid rise in gold could hardly
be prevented, although the improved
quotations for bonds in Europe would
finally settle the future price of gold.
Government bonds were very dull to
day, and tending downward. The excite
ment to purchase on Saturday exceeded
anything ever witnessed, and to , put a
check on the bull speculations the prin
cipal operators made money scarce,
which bad the effect of putting a damper
on the spirit of further operations for a
rise.
Stocks are dull and lower for the en
tire list, headed by Fort Wayne, Cleve
laud, Ohio and Erie, the entire Erie
clique stock. Express shares are dull,
and the upward movement was checked
to-day by the general decline of the
market.
Business improving slowly but money
scarce.

—The Chicago Republican speaking of
the farmers in the west holding back
their grain in anticipation of higher
prices, pertinently remarks: All inter
ested must be aware that last year's
crops were abundant and largely in ex
cess of previous years, and that the sup
ply of grain in nearly all sections of the
country is frilly if not more than suffi
cient to• supply the demands likely to be
made upon us from any and all quarters,
so that there are no signs favorable to an
advance in prices. The winter has been
favorable, and there ill every indication
of an extensive crop of winter wheat,
while the prospect of an early seeding of
other,terealsia bright, and the prospec
tive future clear:
—Regarding the supply of wheat in
Minnesota the St. Cloud Journal, of Feb
ruary 18, says
There is an immense quantity of grain
in Northern Minndsota, yet in the hands
of the farmers. They seem determined
to hold bri for $1 for wheat, and will at
least await the opening `.of navigation.
Even in the new counties the wheat on
hand would seem althost incredible- A
gentleman from Monongahela' . county
informed - us that he had recently vialted
a farmer there who had over seven
hundred bushels' of graln"alone in his
granary. ( •

PETROLEUM MARKET.
OFFICE OF PITTSBURGH: GAZETTE, t
• TUESDAY, March 2, 1869. 1 ;
The market very suddenly and unex- •
pectedly took an upward turn this after
noon,
which took the whole trade by
surprise, and towards evening there was
considerable excitiment manifested,
though there was but little done. Right
•
on the heels of this came rumors that the •
bull element was again buying , and this, ;i
of course, had 'tendency to make the mar- !
ket stronger than it would otherwise _1
have been. And this shows how exceed
ingly
sensitive the market is, as the •
slightest fipple puts the whole trade in
a sea of commotion, and for the time 4.
being upsets everything, and places the ; I
market in such a condition, that is diffi
cult to do anything, as refiners are afraid
to name a price, for fear of what is Com
monly termed being "picked up."
Therefore, the advance, although as yet,
insignificant, produced considerable ex
citement, coming as It did entirely un-_
expected, and as always is the case. in I
the face of an advaneing market, there r i
were but few ers sell at quotatiOns.
CRUDE—The Crude market closed I
firmer this evening, although without 4.,
quotable change,—but little offering and, 1'
seemingly but little wanted. Spot oil is
quoted at 1814 ®163.‘ 40045, gravity, and
16W18% for 40 to 48. Future deliveries
held at 17, with offers to buy at 16340 if
163;. Sale of 2,000 Ibis till September at
15 and 640 e.
REFINED—The Refined market was
dull and weak during the first half of the '
day, but in the afteinoon, under the in-
Suence of more favorable advices from
the East, the market was much stronger , ; 1
and prices were better. Sale of two lots
of 1,000 each, for last half of March at .a
95X,- 1 -later bathe day the same delivery e -
was quoted at 88®36% . . "Lines" from
March to June or July, which were sold
at 36 on Saturday and Quieted at 3836 s-1
yesterday, were held this evening at 3'7.
