gold premium has fluctuated widely during the month. The
rise to 1441 was
immediately due to the failure of Schepler & Co.,
who were heavily short of gold, and were unable to nuke
good their
contracts. This house had
occupied a leading position in banking
and foreign exchange circles, and were
also at one time tte heaviest
shippers in the country of petroleum. At abouFthe same time the
discount rate of the Rank of
England was advanced, and a panic in
United Sta'es bonds was apprehended. These fears
proved to be
without foundation, and the
premium gradually declined until, at
the close of the month, sales were made as low
138£. The decline
was also assisted
by Treasury sales, which at first were one million
per week, but were afterwards increased to two millions
per week.

Michigan Southern rose to 119£ from 109, the lowest point, and

that these arrangements were not

pressure to sell, both Michigan Southern aud Like Shore declined

speculation in gold during the week
has been in favor of a decline in the premium, which has fallen off
from 140£ to 1374. TLe caus s assigned for the decline have been
generally of a speculative nature, though strongly assisted by the
Government sales of $2,000,000, and the lower rates of foreign
exchange. There have been no extraneous considerations affecting
the premium, and speculators feel disposed to await the further
developments of Secretary BoutwelTs policy, before resuming fur¬
ther operations. At the present he keeps his plans entirely to
himself. The exports of specie foot up about $1,10 >,000. The
closing prices are 13£$@13S£, against 139|@139£, our last
quotation.
The fluctuations in the gold market, and the business at the Gold
Board during the week closing with Friday, are shown in the fol¬

It is hinted that the McGregor and Sioux
City Riilroad is but a link to an immense chain up the Missouri or Nio¬
brara, and on tow rd the Pacific bv another trans-continental

The contract for putting down the iron on the
Burlington, Cedar Rap¬
ids and Minnesota Railroad has been let. Track
laying will commence
at Burlington and Cedar
Rapids about the 1st of June, and it is expected
to have the whole line (160
miles) complete! from Burlington to Water¬

January next. The company has already purchased
5,000 tons of iron, lour locomotives, and a number of fiat cars.

have felt more confidence in
making their preparations for
the fall trade.
On
Saturday last the offerings of the better

resulted in an advance of 3c on low
middlings and |c on mid¬
dlings. The lower grades were mostly neglected, and ordi¬
nary was quoted at the close Jc off.
Monday thei move¬
ment increased, and all
grades were dc higher, middling
uplands being quoted at ‘29|c, and ordinary returned to
25c.
Tuesday the market was still more active, and
prices from
better, ordinary Uplands being quoted at
25i(Gj20c., and middling uplands at 29|-@30c. This same
active movement, in the face of
very small offerings, was con¬
tinued on Wednesday, and resulted in a further advance ol
about rjc. Thursday there was less
doing, but the offerings
were small, and about
enough buyers to take all that was
offered, so that prices remained firm at the advance. To-day

ledge of this fact depresses the maiket. In the absence of any demand
from purchasers to counteract the weight of rthe
accumulation, business
has been dull, and prices have fallen off
during the week
but the
steadfastness of importers has prevented any further
decline, and holds
the market in a position where but a little show of
activity would be
required to advance the figures at which stocks are now held. Holders
are firm in the faith that better
prices must come before long, lit fined

The demand has been

good through the week for the better grades
of Grocery Mola ses and those suitable for
boiling, while the inferior
qualities of each have been neglected. There has been no inquiry for
the distilling kinds. Importers have been quite indifferent as to offer¬
ing their stoc’s, an 1 prices in consequence have ruled firm. Sales
include 090 hhds of Cuba, 474 do Porto Rico and 591 do Barbadoes.

Bleached Sheetings and Shirtings have
partaken to a certain
extent in the advance and
activity noticed in the market for brown
goods; but a speculative demand, and one which follows a rise
in cot¬
ton, is generally most
apparent in standard browns, the value of which
is more
exclusively dependant upon the price of the raw material.
The stock of bleached
goods continues to be pretty full, although
several mills have
