FINANCE AND TRADE!,
OFFIOE OF PITTSBURGH GAZETTE,
11 MONDIT, March 29, 1869.
. .
The increase in our imports during the
present imonth, and the great reduction
of the aVailable gold in the market for
ordinary, buidness purposes, have ad
vanced the premium to-day 35 per cent. .
despite the tightness of the money mar
ket. Unless the May interest is clandes
,
finely anticipated by some large houses,
the entire amount of gold now in the'
bankit will be used during the first half
of next month for custom house pur
poses. We sa y clandestinely, because a
general Eutticipa4on of the,May coupons
.
would uot relieVe the present demand
.for gold; for the, reason that nearly all
the coupon bonde are held by Europeans
and nobody would profit by it. But the
foreign capitalists, even our own resi
dent forign bankers, could not profit
by it, as the gold so received would have
to be shipped to Europe and our own
investor in registering bonds would
have to wait to Hay next. All the possi
ble good derived from such a measure
would L e a rapid advance of the' gold
premium, and an increased export of
our produce and cotton.
Government bonds declined about M
per cend from Saturday's quotations,
with a Very." -dull market and more sel
lers than! buyers. To-morrow and Wed
nesday is likely to see a further decline,
for want: of means by speculators to
carry their bonds, or to buy for a rise.
The continued drafts - on the eastern
banks ior currency have drained these
institutions to such an extent, that they
are no longer able to - carry their friends'
bonds, even at an enormous rate of in
terest. The balance ,of this week is
likely to witness as tight, a money mar
ket as we ever had. Although banks,
bankers and prudent merchants are pre
pared for it In time, it is only the im
provident who always come in at the
latest heur, that will have to pay for
their want of forethought. • •
Stooks {were well sustained and even
higher than last week. The principal
support '
,of the market are the clique of
the Eriel Railroad with their brokers'
connections, and the large 'speculative
\banking firm of Smith, Gould dt Warson.
These parties have borrowed money at
cheap rates, and carry all the decks they
hold throng any kind of money market.
Epress shares were firm, Mining shares
more active and , some miscellaneous
shares ' were inquired 'for at-the decline.
Business dull; money twelve per cent.

stringency by time loans. The market

ALLEGHENY CATTLE- MARKET.
OFFICE OF PITTSEUROK GAZETTE,) - •
MONDAY, March 29, 1869.
.5 3,1441 ,
CATTLE—There was a lirger suppl
of Cattle on sale to=day; 'than mull): •
about nine hundred and thirty head, and
with only a moderate demand, the mar- .
ket was a very dull one, and when •
we left the yards, at ten o'clock
A. sr.; it looked as if . there wonld - be a
good many left over unsold. - There was
little or no inquiry forehipment, and, as ‘.
already noted, the supply way too large
for the butchers, ; though - the stock on
sale, as a :neral thing; was rather .bet
ter than I t week, and the most fastidi- •
ous butcher had no difficulty in being f
'suited. In regard to prices, there is but
little change compared with last week •
the fact is, Cattle are too high in th'
country to admit of any decline herd;
without the seller. sustaining a loss, an.
the trade is in a very unsatisfactory eck
dition for both drovers and hutches
though that could be , desired for
stock growers.
There is another drawbaok in this ix,
ket, and that is the credit system, a
the great diffimity in making coL.
tions. It seems, impossible to do
nese regularly ere without selling tat"
or less on time, and this generally .
sults in the creation of some bad deb.
butchers, as a class, • are good pay, nc
withstanding they are sometimes, ilk+
other people, hard-up and coniPelled,,
occasionally, to ask time. We are in
formed that one firm, sold 64,700w0rth
of stock last Monday, on which less than
three hundred dollars were collected.
