Gold seems to have touched its, lowest point for the present, at noon yesterday selling at 133, from which it advanced again to 1384, closing at 133 g. The uncertainty of the future Treasury movements, especially the fact whether governments will sell any more gold during the coming month, and what amount of currency will be put out for the purchase of bonds, keeps the busi ness community in suspense. Con. Untied disbursements would keen the money market easy during a period where large stigaments of currency have to be made south and west for the mov ing of cotton and grain, whilst on the. other'hand, a pinch in the money mar ket woull carry down gold and bonds. If gold could permanently be kept down, this anticipated stringency would be a great benefit to the country, but low prices for gold at present, would stimulate imports to such an extent, that all our rich crops will barely suf fice to pay fir the excess of imports. Government bonds still further de clined to-day, but were steady at the lowest point, with some inquiry tor bonds for investment; it seems, how ever, as it bonds would go down still further. Stocks are dull but steady. Money in sufficient supply during the dull season, but an active money market is anticipated, and banks are preparing for it. - Quotations as received by Pb.

OFFICE OF PITTSBURGH GAZETTE, t TUESDAY, August, 17 1869. The most important feature we have to notice to-day is a material decline in, Wheat at Chicago, under the influence it is said, of the foreign news. The season is now sufficiently advanced to demonstrate almost beyond a - doubt - that a very large crop has been safely secured, and unless there is a stiff foreign demand, it seems almost as cer— tain as anything can be, that prices must go lower. Sneculation may keep it in check for the time being,. but once the crop commences to move freely, unless Europe is prepared to take our surplus, a decline seems almost inevitable. It is to be hoped that there will be a good ex port demand for breadstuffs, as in that event the farmer will get a fair price for his product, business generally would be strengthened and improved -thereby, and, besides, nothing could do more to /wards bringing down gold and hasten 'forward a resumption of specie pay ments. The markets in a general way, pre sent nothing really new or important. Flour is quiet but 'firm, anu while the demand is confined entirety to supply ing immediate wants, prices are un changed. Grain is unsettled and irregu lar, while provisions are in steady de mand and prices well sustained. We do not remember of ever seeing more fruit and "green truck" in this market than at present. commission houses are nearly all full and overflowing, and - much of it that comes from the east, does not more than pay freight and commission, if it does that. Potatoes, apples, tomatoes, peaches, pears and other articles in same line, are being sold almost for a song, and while this is all very 'Comforting for the consumer, it is bard on the shipper and producer. APPLES—Continue very dull with a supply largely in excess of the demand; we continue to quote at $1,50@2,50@3 per b , d. BUTTER—Is quiet and unchanged; we continue to quote at 20@25,f0r fair to cho BERRIES—SaIes of Blackberries at 90®$1per bucket. BEANS—SaIes at $1,75@2. BROOMS—Quoted as toltows: No. 5 $6.50; No. 4 :,•:6; No. 3 p, No. 2, plain, $4,50, and market firm. CHEESE—Is firmer but unchanged; Western Reserve 1330114; Ohio Factory 14%@15; Ohio Goshen 1534 . and York Goshen 16%. • CENlENT—Johnstown Hydraulic Ce ment is quoted at 52,25 per bol. CARBON OlL—Standard brands may be quoted at 28 for 50 or 100 bbl lots and 30 in a retail way. EGGS—DuII but unchanged; sales at 14C315. FEATHERS—DuII; quoted at 5061,85 cents to the trade, and the usual advance for small lots In store. FLOUR—The arrivals are increasing somewhat, mostly all Winter Wheat, the high price of Spring having pretty effectually played it out in this market, and, with the exception of some of the bakers, consumers, prefer the rormer to the latter at the same price. Winter Wheat flours are being sold at $7,00®. $7,50 while Choice Springs are quoted at $7, 50 @ 7 , 75 . GRAlN—Wheat is in steady milling demand with sales of prime new at 51,49, and prime old at 51,45. New Oats, if anything, ashade firmer, but unchanged; we continue to quote at 50@52 on wharf and truck; 54@55 for small lots in store and 45@48 for future delivery. Sales of prime old reported at 65, to go. east. Corn is quiet; sales on wharf at 95(441,00, and in store at $1,03®1,05: Rye is in de mand at $1,15@1,20. Barley nominal at. $1,25@1,30. HAY-Sales 59 loads at Allegheny Diamond market at sl3®l9—mainly at 514@17. Straw sold at $l9. HEMP—Very dull, $205 per ton.
