The temperance societies of New York cele¬ 
brated tii© anniversary birthday of Father Mat¬ 
thew by a parade on the 10th Inst,. 
A grand ovation was given Gens. Sheridan 
and Sickles at Albany on Thursday of last week. 
There was a collision on the New York Cen¬ 
tral Railroad on Saturday evening last, and one 
man killed. It occurred near Albany. As a 
freight train was running up the heavy grade 
west of the city the rear ear broke its coupling, 
ran back and dashed into a passenger train,

It is now generally conceded that General 
Grant and Secretary McCulloch will soon be 
called on to leave the Cabinet. The friends of 
the administration announce that as soon as 
proper persons con be selected as their succes¬ 
sors their resignations will be asked for. 
It is reported to-day that large numbers of 
nutioual banks in the country have joined in 
with the whisky dealers in the effort to displace 
Secretary McCulloch, their object being to pre¬ 
vent the early return to specie payment indi¬ 
cated by the Secretary’s policy. 
The Washington Lincoln Monument Associa¬ 
tion has closed a contract for a monument to be 
built of white marble, and to have a height of 
thirty-six feet, including u statue of Lincoln 
eight feet high, of Italian marble. Over #7,000 
have been collected for this purpose, almost 
entirely in Washington. The monument will 
be placed in front of the City Hall. 
A detachment of infantry and three batteries 
of artillery were sent from this city to Fort 
McHenry, Baltimore, on the 9th inat. A detach¬ 
ment of 200 regulars from New York, has also 
arrived in Baltimore. The cause of these move¬ 
ments of troops excites much Inquiry. 
Information has been received that quantities 
of 7.80s of the June issue sent to Washington to 
he exchanged into 5.20s, have been discovered to 
he counterfeit and have been returned. They 
are admirably executed. Thus far the Govern¬ 
ment detectives in New York have discovered 
#100,000 worth, and have uotiiied a number of 
banks and banking-houses that they either hold 
or have recently passed them. It is also thought 
that the counterfeits have found their way to 
the large Western cities. The Washington 
Eveuing Express says over #60,000 worth of 
these bonds have been sent to the Treasury 
Department for redemption by such banking 
houses as Jay Cooke & Co.; Vermilye & Co., 
Fisk A Hatch, and others. Vermilye & Co. are 
the heaviest losers as far as reported. All t hese 
bonds are destroyed, and the bunkers sending 
them in are not credited with them, so that the 
Government loses nothing. It is the opinion of 
the experts connected witli the Treasury Deport¬ 
ment that the counterfeit plate of the seven- 
thirty Imitation bonds was not made in this 
country. 
It is stated that at the suggestion of Secretary 
8eward, it. was decided at the last Cabinet meet¬

We know of no musical instrument for which 
there is a greater demand than for the American 
Groan, manufactured by 8. D. A H. W. Smith, 
at Boston, Mass., the reputation of which is 
based upon its solid merit. The internal con¬ 
struction differs from all other instruments, 
being on a superior principle, while the absence 
of complication renders it less liable to get out of 
order. The action is so delicate that its re¬ 
sponse to the touch is as ready as the Pianoforte, 
making it desirable for light and quick music as 
well as for that which is connected and sustained

Gold yesterday sold at 114 , 14 . The money market In 
New York continues close, and call loans arc not uiude 
at less than 7 pur cent. Commercial pnper Is dull,

Secretary McCulloch has written a letter in relation 
to the various rcpndlaCon schemes. He says he con¬ 
siders the faith of the Govern taunt pled red to pay the 
5-20 bonds In gold, and he believes loo much importance 
has been attached to the utterances of half-fledged finan¬ 
ciers. He tliluk-* there Is little danger of the 5-aOs being 
paid in live years. 
There wua great excitement at the Fast, hist week, 
over the discovery of a large amount of spurious or 
counterfeit 7-30s, sent to Washington for redemption. 
H was supposed at first there had been a fraudulent 
Issue, but 11 more careful examination showed a differ¬ 
ence In the two plates, and the notes In question are 
now generally believed to be counterfeits. How far 
the fraud extends is not known. About $200,000 o[ u,r 
spurious notes have thus far been detected, and It is said 
they come from the West. All the counterfeits thus far 
discovered areduted between Sept.gistaud October4th, 
1807. Tbe Government has taken prompt measures lo 
ascertain the origin and extent of the iVsud. 
Wheat and Flour,— 1 1 was almost universally be¬ 
lieved about harvest time that this year’s crop of wheat 
was unusually large. The reports from every secllon 
of the country very naturally led to this belief, and 
everybody was quite willing the statem uts should he 
true.. It now appears. Judging from more recent data, 
that the crop was over-estimated. The quality of the 
wheat raised In 18(1?, as a general thing, is good, decid¬ 
edly above last year, and perhaps above the average, 
but the yield Is not large, and the total Is considerably 
lets than was anticipated. Hence prices have steadily 
advanced as the facts become known. The advance the 
last week has been moderate, and possibly (lie highest 
point for the present lias been reached. Red wheat Is 
selling In this city at *2,60, The amount marketed here 
Is not large, and rales In most localities in Western New 
York arc light for the season. There Is very little ad¬ 
vance in flour the past week, though good brands are 
firmly held. 
Wool.—T he sales In Boston lint week amount to 700,- 
000 lbs., at a range of 40(j}5So. far fleece, and 30<$56e. for 
the various grades of pulled. The eastern market lor 
all grades continues dull and drooping, except perhaps 
for very choice lots of flue fleece and combing wools. 
The stringency In the money market Just now operates 
unfavorably. The Boston 1!allotlu of Saturday says: 
“ There can be scarcely a doubt that, In the absence of 
high grade foreign wool, the entire domestic clip will be 
wanted for consumption, before the cdU of the seuson • 
and hence there would seem to be no good cause for 
panic or necessity of making great sacrifices, on the part 
of those holders who are ahlc to bide their time and 
await the demand which Is only In abeyance.” 
In Newark, N. J., tbe other day, a young child

JIILFS 
OF THE 
UNION PACIFIC 
RAILiIlOAD, 
Runiiing West from Omaha across the 
Continent, 
are now completed, and it is expected that the remain¬ 
ing 57 miles, to carry the truck to the base of tbe Rocky 
Mountains, will be finished early In October. Contracts 
have already been made for rock-cuttlnge beyond, to be 
done during the winter. The work Is being pushed for¬ 
ward with equal energy ou the California end of the 
route, under Qie dlrertion of the Central Pacific Com¬ 
pany, commencing at Sacramento, and It 1 b contldently 
expected that the two rood? will meet In 1370, thus com¬ 
pleting the entire grand line connecting the Atlantic 
and Pacific Ocean*, on which TIlIItTY-FIVE MILLION 
DOLLARS In cash have already been expended. From 
the liberal Government aid, the wealth and energy ol 
the stockholders, and the ready market for the First 
Mortgage Bonds, then- la no want of funds for the, most 
vigorous prosecution of the work, and Its early com¬ 
pletion Is as certain as any future business event can 
be.

From the relative high charges, the operating expenses 
of the road are but32?j per cent, of the earnings, and the 
ratio would be much le*» If the contractor’s business 
were not done at half rate*. Throwing out charges to
