New York Market.
MONET MAKKET.
The New York Evening Post, of Monday, December 10,
states that :- <*
The dooming House statement is not so favorable as
had been wished. It shows a continued liquidation-the
deposits having declined ?5,212,355. The loans have fal?
len $2,391,641. Themost serious fact is the continued
declino in the legal tenders, the amount of which is now
down to $60,943,857, showing that the reserve has fallen
more than thirty-one millions sine *? 1st September. Two
reasons are assigned for the absent'?of the anticipated ac
First thc South is drawing off our greenbacks. Tho re?
mittances for moving the cotton and tobacco make a de?
mand for currency ; and national bank notes being re?
garded as less valuable than greenbacks, tho latter are
demanded, and the remittances are almost exclusively in
greenbacks.
becondly, the same preference for greenbacks seems to
prevail in the West, as in remittances the national bank
notes are sent almost exclusively, large packages of cur?
rency being received here daily, in which there are
scarcely any greenbacks. The consequence is, that while
our city banks have a growing accumulation ot country
bank notes in their vaults, their stock of Jenbacks is
seriously impaired. The extent to which such hanks are
suffering as have large monetary relations with the in?
terior banks is one of the most noteworthy features of
the subjoined table. The figures will deserve, and aro,
indeed, receiving the most anxious scrutiny in regard to
the proportion which tho liabilities bear to tho res arva of
greenbacks.
The loan market is easy and inactive at 6a6 per cent
for loans on call. Discounts are dull, and tho rates are
un chango:!. .

The flour trade has been much depressed during ti

[Evening Post, December 12.
Boston Dry Goods market.
BOSTON, December 8.-Tho past has been a very quiet
.week in the dry goods trade, and vf o are sorry to say
there is no prospect- of any immodiato improvement
either in demand or price? - though a climatic change,
introducing a little seasonable weather, would doubtless j
help the situation a little. The process of general distri?
bution is very slow, and retail stocks "hang fire" in all
parts of the country, notwithstanding the large agricul- j
tu ~al crops and abundance of money.
The backwarcness of consumption is severely felt at all
tho great trade and manufacturing centres, and no con?
cession in prices seems to have tho desired effect in
stimulating tho seasonable demand- Jobbers aro very
cautious and rigidly adhere to a conservative policy.
Tho lata financial "Hurry," and the imminenco of impor?
tant national legislation, have rendered them more timid
than over; and, believing that a general "tumble" in
values is somewhere ahead, they are determined not to
be caught with stocks on their hands.
No permanent revival of trade is expected till after the
new year, though it is possible that some "flush" buyers
will enter the market toward the close of the month in
anticipation of a rise in January. Di the meantime
there will doubtless be considerable pressure to sell be?
fore "taking stock" and squaring accounts, and those
who have the spare cash will be able to secure bargains.
Cotton goods are without much variation, though most?
ly nominal from first hands. The general tendency is
still downward, though some styles are scarce and firm?
er. Standard brown sheetings havo bojn lower since
our last report, and being sold up at the reduction, have
since rall t cd, and are now held at about last week's rates
Wo note sales at 20a21c, but agents are generally asking
21?c at the close.
Fine brown goods are quiet at the reduction last noted.
We quote Pocassct Canoes sold up at 23c; Pepperell B's
and Lawrence B's, 21u; Exeter and New Market A's,
18?c; Dwight R's, 18c; Forest A's, 17?o. Bleached

3. He must have resided two years in this State pre?
vious to tho election. N. B_This residence must be

other person whoso residence is only occasioned for the
mere purpose of business, is entitled to a vote. I
5. Ho must have a Town Lot within tho City of
