The Markets.
NEW YORK, July 26.- Cotton 47 cts.
per pound. Flour has advanced 15 ta
25 cents. Whiskey is quoted ut $2.12.
Wheat is 5 to 10 cunts higher. Corn
hus advanced 1 cent. Sugcr and mo?
lasses are dull. Pork $'?2 per barrel.
Sterling quiet at 100. Government
stueks active and firm. Gold closed
at 148??.
NEW YORE", July 29.-Gold reacted
this morning irom tho extreme
price of lust night-147. Tho mar?
ket opened at 1-46 ; ?j. and by
hiAf-past eleven hud receded to
144?;';, arter which and before two
o'clock it advanced to 146, then re?
lapsed and at half-past four stood
at 14?;?'. The rise in the premium
in the absence of a demand for export
is a source ol' some surprise in as well
as out of Wall street, and is traceable
to purely speculative influences, al?
though there ure good reasons for
supposing that gold will be consider?
ably higher before th? countrv returns
t> specie payments. The bull opera?
tors, who are- heavily saddled with
g dd, are anticipating the future a lit?
tle too fast, and the market may, if
stimulated much further, recoil upon
themselves. Meanwhile they are buv
Tng up all the gold that is offered at
tba market price, and it is rumored
that they have, been large borrowers
of currency to-day. The promptitude
which the Mexican canard was acted
upon yesterday was very suspicious,
and speaks bailly for the commercial
morality of .si.me of the present bull

CAPTURED COTTON FOI?FF.?TED.-A
special despatch to the New York
Commercial AUxcriiser, from Washing?
ton, dated 22d instant, says:
? The Washington Republican prints
to-day Attorney-General Sneed's opi
I nion rendered bo Secretary McCulloek
i upon claims for cotton captured by
Sherman in Savannah.
Ile decided that all cotton taken by
I military i'orces in insurrectionary dis
I tricts is captured property, within the
i meaning of the statute of 1863, whether
owned by loyal men or not.
He also holds that recourse must be
j had in dispu'.ed eases to the Court of
j Claims, and that jurisdiction cannot
i be conferred upon a commission up
I pointed either by the President or
j Secretary of the Treasury to examine
the claims in'question, and to make
I restoration of the proceeds of so much
I cf this cotton as may belong to loyal
claimants.
INTERNAL REVENUE DKCSIIONH.- -
Where a.bond is secured by two mort?
gages, tho stamp duty required to
validate all tie- instruments will be
doulile (if governed hy the mortgages,)
when it ?would have been in tin- case
of one mortgage. If. however, the
stamp appropriate to a bond be affix?
ed to tin: same, theil the bond will he
valid, though tin- mortgages might
not be.
Tile Commissioner of Internal
Revenue decides that the attorney or
agent of tin.- drawer of a cheek may
allix a stum]! thereto, anil cancel tin
same if duly authorized so to do. such
! drawer being absent. Hut tin-initials
of the drawer should be used. If a
! check is used before the stamp is
affixed and cancelled, th.- user is
liable to p.-:ial!y: consequently tho
attorney or agent should allix and
cancel the st.imo before use thereof.
