FINANCE AND TRADE.
OFF.IOE Or PITTSBURGH GAZETTE,
TUESDAY, August 24, 1869:
The fear of a tight money mt rket
seems to be the main cause of the' dull
ness of the Government bonds, yh'ch
are steadily declining, although gold
advanced to-day sharply about one per
cent. Up to the present time bonds
kept pace with gold; following it in
either direction, and so long as the GOV.
ernment is still purchasing—two millions
to-day, and one million on Thursday,
also one ruilfion of gold will be sold on
Thursday and the interest for Septem
ber be paid out on Monday next.
Stocks are steadily yielding, and a
further decline is confidently expected
in the absence of any element. to sus
tain quotations. In our home ~ market
money is still easy, but from the fact
that large amounts of stocks were
thr own on the market, they command
a ready sale.
There is more inquiry for the Pacifc
bonds at pi went low prices, and large
amounts of Governments are exchanged
for these securities. The Banking
House of Ph. R. Mertz can give reliable
inforuiationiegarding these exehanges.

of the "bears," turned the tide of specu

lively, 'and it is estimated that about
$7,000,000 have been taken by the promi

little better than ;t was last monta, ancl‘
fatly as good as it usually is at this
season of the year. There would be
more activity in grain if it Wa i k . not for
the uncertainty in regard to prices, and
this retards business and restrtts opera
tors, as operators generally • e timid
and seem disposed to hold off until the
markets become more settled and prices
more fully established. At the present,
time, the impression prevails that prices
will rule lower, sooner or later, and- the
movement in most of the leading Mar
kets during the past few days are calcu.:
lated to strengthen this feeling. Aiit
other drawback to the grain trade in
this place, is the fact that producers its
this section of country are demand
ing, in many Cases, prices at home that
can scarcely be realized here, so the,
the shipper has no margin, and it is not
to be expected that he will invest his
money and run the risk of the markets,
with no prospect 'of even the smallest
margin at the outset. The .flour mar.
ket is so very quiet that it does not
serve a passing notice.

WOOL MARKET.
OFFICE OF PITZIEUREtH GAZETTE,
. TUESDAY, August 24, 1E69. :1
,
The market remains quiet at about- .
previeus quotations. Considerable pur;
chases have been made in the surround
ing,
counties the past Week, of law*
wools at 45 cents, and fora choice clips in ki
extra condition, a little higher has,:in,')
been paid. The fault wit •f
some cases, h
many buyers is ft want of proper d
crimination , hi not making the just -,
, wools. . :.
correct abetment on heavy Wc.,
growers demand of buyers that `tb•
-'
shall discriminate, but when the buy :
wishescto do this and pay for clean wi: . 72
what it is worth, they also claim ',i,::
right to buy the heavy and badly we
ed wools at the proper discount, and ( .2:
rule ought to work both wa ',.;•:
With many wool growers we find 't
fault, they wash and carefully bar ;
their wool; but with many the vio.y.'
object is to grow big fleeces, and 7: -
half wash them, so they are no t.'i --,
than unwashed—puC the best ~, Ir ,
on the pile and tell you they knovirc
all clean and well handled, when' 7l ::
I .
know entirely different, and at the
time have the, unblushing effrontr ,
ask the highest mirky: price. Thos(
Way to correct all this, is to pass si::,
clips by, and if any, buyer is verditl, :
enough tO buy them at full prices, le'.
lum leant by experieuce.
