At ihe dale of our last, (June 16,) gold was quoted at 
197. It has since been as high as 290. Yesterday (July 
16) it fell to 242 S241. Such violent fluctuations in the 
market price of the precious metal have produced equally 
extreme changes in Ihe currency values of the principal 
kinls of produce and mercandise. At one time, (within 
the month,) speculation was quile brisk, in breadstuff's, 
provisions and groceries, cotton, wool, tobacco, hides, 
leather, &c, leading to a rapid inflation in prices of such 
articles, and checking Ihe regular demand from home 
consumers and shippers, Recently the leading money 
lenders have been less disposed to make advances to 
dealers in produce, unless at enormously high rates of 
interest, (ranging from ljfc. to 5 per cent a month, or 
equal lo from S157r)S60 per annum, for the use of every 
$100). Of course speculators could not afford lo borrow 
on such terms, and have consequently been forced lo sell 
out. as far as practicable, in a rapidly declining mar 
ket. depressed by these efforls to realize anil by the heavy- 
fall in gold. Hence, the business of the month in all 
kinds of domesiic produce closes up lamely and feverish- 
ly : hplders being generally very eager to sell, and buyers 
reluctant lo purchase freely. Merchants anticipate early 
and decisive national victories in Virginia and Georgia, 
which must inevitably force gold down close to its real 
value, and bring about a corresponding reduction in the 
market price of all the prime necessaries of life. In 
view of (he extraordinary fluctuatigu of almost daily oc- 
currence) in the pi ices of the principal agricultural pro- 
ducts, during the past month, it would be altogether use- 
less lo enter inlo an elaborale review of the movements 
in each article. The closing currency prices of most 
commodities, (though in some instances far below the ex- 
treme figures ruling two weeks since, ) are much higher 
than those obtainable at the date of our last.

STRAWBERRY. 
I have now growing a large stock of this justly cele- 
brated and unequalled variety, and having tak- 
en great care of the runners this season, I can fill orders with 
unusually strong and well rooted plants. Of the very large 
number of this kind sent out by me last spring, there was 
scarcely a failure, and the very fine order In which they were 
received by my customers in the most distant States and 
Territories, gave, as per letters sent me, entire satisfaction, 
many saying they were the best plants they had ever re- 
ceived. 
Sent by mail postage paid, 30 plants for $l 00
