The purchases of foreign bankers for ship¬ ment have so glutted the exchange market that bond bill* have sold at very low figures, good names being negotiated with difficulty at 108@108f. This class of dealers have consequently suspended buj ing, and are holding their bonds until an improvement in the rate for bills encourages the renewal of shipments. The large amount of bonds placed recently upon the foreign markets has somewhat depressed prices abroid, which aLo has had a tendency to ke p the market here quiet. The possibility of money being more or less stringent about the beginning of April has made dealers generally indifferent about buying, and indeed disposed to encourage lower prices. It is significant, however, that under these adverse influences there has been no special effort to put down the market, none apparently thinking it safe to sell bonds which they are not prepared to deliver. Among leading dealers there is an idea that, after these temporary occasions of weakness, the market will recover its late elasticity, with a fresh advance throughout the list. The foreign bankers are very generally of opinion that the effect of the public credit bill upon foreign-investors has not yet exhausted its force, and that after the bonds sent out lately have been distributed, prices will further advance and more bonds be required. In some quarters, it is confidently anticipated that the Secretary of thA Treasury will early call for proposals for the sale of bonds for gold* which, to a certain extent, is an element of strength.

The effect was to enhance the loaning rate to very high figures, much as ^ per cent per day “ fur borrowing ” having been paid ; but the premium has remained comparatively stationary, the low rates of exchange and the expectation of a continued supply of bond bills having pro¬ duced an iLdisposit on to buy. As usual at this season, the foreign merchants are largely “ short ” oa gold ; and as the present stock on the market is very low, the larger bidders make it their policy to compel borrowers to pay high rates oa their loans. There ap}‘ears to be some ground lor expecting that the Secretary of the Treasury will early put coin on the market, either by payi g the May inteiest before maturity or by exchanging gold for bonds through public proposals.

Metals have shown great activity in Iron and Copper, with a fair business in Tin, Lead, and Spelter—prices ruling firm iu all cases, except for Copper, in which at some conces¬ sion the sales for present and future delivery amount to about five million pounds. Fish and Fruit have been weak. Hops less active and close heavy. Hay in fair demand. Whiskey unchanged. Tallow closes dull, but there has been some activity iu Stearine, Building Materials are dull and unsettled. Wool has been quiet, but prices rule firm , assortments are not attractive, and buyers hold off. Freights have been very dull, and rates are low and unset¬ tled: some grain has been taken on steamer’s account. Provisions show activity and buoyancy in all hog pro¬ ducts. The annual statement of packing operations show a falling oft* in the number of hogs slaughtered, which is partially made good by an increase of average weights, but still there is a small deficiency. There is a renewal of speculation on Western account, with more export and gene ral demand. New Mess Pork advanced to-day to $32 2 5, and 500 tcs prime Lard were taken for export at 19c Bacon is very scarce with prices tending upward. Beef remains in large supply, and prices are weak.

Exporters have been tbe principal purchasers during all the week. On Saturday there was no change in the quotations, though the lower grades were obtained at a shade easier prices; Monday the sales were smaller, but holders were firmer and prices stronger, without being quotably higher; Tuesday prices remained firm, although there was still less doing ; but on Wednesday, under better advices from Europe, our market became more active and prices advanced nearly £ cent, and this advance was sustained yesterday, though towards the close last night there was less disposition to operate, the Liverpool accounts not being as favorable as at the opening. To day, as stated above, there has been very little business, but cotton is strongly held, holders expressing and probably feeling as much confidence as at any period this season.

Nothing of moment has been done for export today, business was interrupted by the observance of Good Friday, but prices ruled very firm. Wheat has been doing a little better in,the past two or three days; the week opened very fiat; but the better accounts from Liverpool coming upon a light stock in store, and the bulk of expected supplies from California being in, there was a firmer feeling. But we are considerably above the wants of the Liverpool market, and shippers are unable to meet the advanced views of holders, especially as an advance is asked for ocean freights. Receipts have falleu off at the West and will probably be limited for so me weeks by the occupation of the farmers with spring sowing. It is not im¬ probable that on the re-opening of lake navigation from Chicago to Buffalo, we shall get increased quantities of wheat forwarded by rail from the latter market.
