The New York Herald of Monday, the 26th instan has the following remarks on tho Money and Excbant market: lt most not be supposed that this full in gold is causo for popular rejoicing, or that it brings us one da nearer the resumption of dpecle pay monti. On the cor trary, a too rapid and artificial downward movemont c the premium ha?, a tondoncy to postpone the ultlmat returu to tho hard money basis by unsettling values producing stagnation in trade, and inflicting dlsastrou IOBSOS upon tiii commercial community, so indirect!, roduciog tho revenue receipts of the Government am Impairing its financial strength and ability toredoem it legal tender notes in coin. Thus far the decline in gol< has fortunately resulted in no very serious commercia disturbance, but it bas interrupted trade and infllctec heavy losses upon importers, without any compensatio; advantage to the peuple at large. The fall in gold du ring the last month has not been in consequence n any greater confidence in the national credit than wai previously entertained. Public opinion had nothing to do with it bat the speculators In the gold room had. They fouid the market flooded with a superabundant amount of com. in consequence of excessive sitios by the Bub-Treasury, while the demand for export was light and foreign exchange dull and heavy. A spleadld opportunity tor a huge bear movement was di ?covered, and immedi? ately the bulls sold their "long" sold and wont "short," and short nearly every operator in gold has since re? mained. But for the Government having tampered with the market these speculators would not have mado for? tunes at the expense of legitimate traders. What the country Deeds is a nearer approach to stability in the gold value of legal tenders, sad therefore the more steady the gold market remains on its gradually declin? ing o inn? the better. If the Government ls a seller oi gold it shoild only be from day io day, in ii mes of real Bcarcity, UDon the presentation of certificates, toniest the demand for customs duties; out under any circum? stances the sale should be made publioly and with s view to steady and not t3 perturb the u artet. The daily range of gold during the week was ts under: Highest. Loweiit. Monday.129? 197? Tuesday.128S? 127fi Wednesday.128!? 198>i Thursday.i.28;. 1S7J? Friday.128'.; 12G7? Saturday.1*6;. my, The export ot gold by Saturday's steamers aggregated $13.',335; of wbicn tho New York took $104,600, and the City of Boston S35.8 5, makint; for the weak $170.207. The demand for customs duties at thia port amounted to $2,509.418 The foreign exchange market opened with a show ol firmness, and a disposition tc: parchase on the part, oi Importers was stimulated by the fall in gold. After? wards, however, tho supply cf bills increited, while thc d?maud slackoncd and rates became irregular. Ii inkers' bills cn EngUud ut sixty dayn declined from 108 to >"' on Monday, to 107 to ;< on Saturday. This condition ol tho market of conrse assisted the depression of gold. Cotton and cotton prospects coutlnuo to exert a govern? ing influence upon the price of exchango, and the In? creased r< empts at the ports daring the past week-the total being about 50,000 bale j-induced a ''bearish" siatc of feellog among both sellers and buyers. This was strengthened by the flrmnesuof the Liverpool cotton mar? ket and the activo demand for American from the Man. chester spinners and for tbs continent, and the tm pulso thus given to shipments from this sido. The ox ports from this port are larger than usual, those for thc week ending on tho 20th luttant having been 15,98: bales. The receipt* for tho week ending on tho 23?! were 19,178 bales, and the market was very active, ant: although it opened weak, on tho whole, firm, not.vitli standing the drooping tendency of gold. The dry goodi trade was also more activo, although at lower prices and the prolonged stagnation which has thus far in thi year characterized this brauch of business seems to bt giving way to a more natarfJ. condition of things. Thi ! decline in the prices of both domestic and foreign man alaciaros since tho commencement of the year has beer from 25 to 30 per cent, and the extont of tho 1 OBJ eu sus. tain ed ny Importers and jobbers may be inferred fron: this. Cotton has, during the same time, experienced i still heavier decline; bat lt is still high-middling which was worth on an average of ll Ko- V Th. in 1859, being now worth 4lo. Taking teto consideration, how ever, the uncertainties attending the next two or three crops, lt may be that th? staple ls cheap at presen prices, especially if Congress should levy the proposed tax of five cents per pound upon it at the place of export or manufacture. The monev market has boen throughout easy at five per oent, with a few exceptions at six, and this condi tion of monetary affairs is likely to continuo and dc much towards stimulating speculation for a rise on the Stock Exchange-a tendency which will bs strengthened by the restrictions impose-.' by Congress upon the Sec rotary of the Treasury with regard to the currency. An easy money market will, in fact, be Indispensable to thc latter until tho whole of the seven-thirty notes and othei interest bearing obligations aro lauded. PRODUCE MAH KET.
