MOREY AND TRADE AFFAIRS, 
New York, Saturday, October 28, 1871. 
A further liquidation of ten million of dollars 
($10,000,000), in the City Bank movement ns shown 
on the last averages, has imparted confidence to the 
Money market, and although the rates continue dear, 
as compared with the Summer’s ease and cheapness, 
the Brokers are now getting money on call loan at 
7 $ tent, and on strictly first-class Merchant paper 
at 9<3)!2 $ cent. By withdrawing their Wall Street 
loans the leading Bankers are enabled to discount for 
their regular mercantile dealers, with more freedom, 
at 7 $ cent. 
The price of Gold had a further decline to titj£ ij) 
cent,, but the price has since returned to 112 $ cent. 
The 1 reasury sold on Thursday $2,000,000, and is al¬ 
so paying out the November Interest, so that the 
next Bank Average In Gold Notes is expected to be 
higher The Treasury, however, continues to take 
in about $2,500,000 per week in Gold forCustoms Du¬ 
ties. 
The general trade ol the City has recovered from 
the first effects of the Chicago fire, and is now better 
than this time last year. The movement of Western 
Produce to the Atlantic seaboard is large, and that 
of Cotton to the Southern ports has increased to 
nearly 100,000 bales per week. The crop receipts 
promise to be much larger than calculated on at the 
beginning of the season. The Exports of Produce 
from New York this week amount to $5,250,000, af¬ 
fording about £1,000,000 Sterling of Foreign Ex¬ 
change. Bills on London made against Grain, Pro¬ 
visions and Colton, and against continued remittances 
of the U. S. Stocks to England and the Continent, 
are more than equal to the regular demand from Im¬ 
porters and the extra demand to remit the Novem¬ 
ber Gold Interest are to Foreign holders of U. S. 
Stocks—although the latter wilt amount to about 
$12,500,000 out ol the $22,000,000 to be paid out alto¬ 
gether,
