CHARLESTON, Friday Evening, Dec. 21, 1866. J
The faU in Gold and tho belief that prices at this point
were relatively too high in proportion to other markets,

MONEY MAB EXT.
The New York Evening Post, of Wednesday, Decem?
ber 19th, says :
Gold is lower to-day on rumors that rtbe Treainry is I
secretly selling coin. Tho decline has had the eu'eot of
lowering the price of those descriptions of Government
bonds which are wanted for foreign account, and it thus
enables foreigners to buy our bonds at easier prices.
The loan market is fairly supplied at 6a7 per cont. The i
slight increase of activity in stocks during the past day or
two has caused somo enlargement of the demand for ac?
commodation, and there is more disposition to chargo
and to pay higher rates of interest. Discounts are dull at
7a8>?.
Por gold this forenoon the quotations were as follows:
10:00, 137y~; 10:30,137 ; 11:15,137 >?; 11:30, 137%;12:00,
137; 1:00, 136??; 1:30, 130%; 2:00, 13G%.
l^ie supply of foreign exchange pressing on tho
luarkot cou?nues larger. Bills at sixty days on Bondon j
are quoted at 108J?al?9>? for comnereial; 109%al09>i for

duced some demand for strict y fine "Gilt Edge," which '
is now selling above the market, the impression being
that this style will be much sought after the residue of
