Omar, or Prrrsuuseac GASETTS,
MONDAY, August 16, 1869.
For the first time for several years
the exports have exceeded the imports,
in consequence, of which a very dull
and bearish feeling manifested itself in
the gold market. Gold opened at 134,
declined to 133%, advanced to 134 again,
and closed dull and heavy at 133 g. The
large short interest is sustaining the
market and will prevent a rapid and
sudden decline.
Government bonds still further de
clined today. - New 1865 s sold down to
119%, but rallied to 119%. The decline
has brought out but few bonds, but the
demand is reduced to - the smallest
amount.
Stocks after having sold down to
about one par cent. below Saturday's
quotations, improved again and closed
with a better feeling.
Money is quite easy with the banks,
and first-class paper can be discounted
at 8 per cent., but anything doubtful
and likely to be renewed is avoided, or
a heavy tax put on.
The high prices of Governments have
opened a fair field for our local securi
ties, which sell at improved prices.
Union and Central Pacific Railroad
bonds are in better demand.

Stocks were irregular during tha day.ln
the forenoon the market was in the main
weak, Michigan Southern, Rock Island,
Northwestern and , St. Paul being most
depressed. Vanderbilt shares were fe-
Arerish, and Central rose from 209 to
211%, wh'ch, ,hbwever, was not main
tained. In the early part of the after-.
noon the market was generally - firm and
strong on Michigan Southern and Read
ing, the latter on the rumor that the
city , of Philadelphia has agreed
to indemnify the Schuylkill Navigation
Company for suspension of, navigation
until the water works of that city, are
bett6.supplied with writer. The suppo
sition that this may largely increase the •
coal tratile•pf the Reading road caused
an advanceN New York Central was
again active, and while Michigan South
ern and North Western were up from 1
©134 per cent., at the close there was a
more settled and confidential feeling
with a growing disposition to discount,
and an early return to oldrates of
freights to the West.

PETROLEUM MARKET.
OFFICE OF PITTSBURGH GAZETTE,
MONDAY, August 16, 1869.
The oil market opened this morning a
little excited, and considerably firmer,
under the influence of the foreign news,
but subsequently there was a reaction,
Antwerp being reported a franc lower,
and at the close the feeling was compar
tively weak, and prices, compared with
the early part of the day, declined fully
a quarter of a cent. The volume of busi
ness, however, was very light, and so
long as the market remains in its pres
ent unsatisfactory and unhealthy conflx
tion, no improvement can reasonably be
expected—so long as the manufrcturer
has no inducement to sell, so long as
crude continues relatively higher than
refined, and until there is at least a
alight margin for the refiner, just so
long will the trade be dull and stagnated
and the clog which has so long clogged
the business, will continue.
CRUDE.
Not a sale reported; market dull but
Arm, with no disposition manifested to
make concession in order to effect sales.
Spot, or seller this month, may be qua
ted at 15@15i 4 . Offers to sell 30 or 60
day, sellers option, at *6, on cars at 011
City, and at 0,96, seller 10 days.

ber to December, at 33. August opened
