The Produce Exchange Association have prepared ninety stands or divisions of the show tables for the sale of grain and flour, and these were all let to-day by auction for a period of five years. The charge for each is $10 per annum; but there was a spirited competition for a choice of position, and the premiums ranged from $10 to $74, amounting in the aggregate to $1,917. The Albany Journal of Saturday evening says:- The Bank of the Capital suspended payment and closed its doors about eleven o'clock this morning. We use the word suspension in regard to it rather than the word failure for the reason that, although its losses will seriously impair its capital, yet ite bilholders and depositors we believe to be unquestionably safe. The bank had enjoyed a good reputation, was believed to have been well managed, and its stoppage was unexpected to our community. This second bank faiture in our city is most unfortunate; but we trust it will not be attended with any loss beyond that which the stocknoklers will sustain. The wise provisions of law which, in both the recent fall-ures, secure the billholder at once and effectually, and the depositor aiso in due time, prove the efficacy and importance of the safeguards throws about our moneyed institutions. There are various reports current in regard to the cause of this failure; but they are not sufficiently tangible, as we go to press, to justify their publication. The facts will in que time be given to the public officially. Money matters are very fat in New Orleans. The Picayune of the 14th instant says:---- The course of the money and paper market today corresponded with yesterday. The banks had free cfferings for discounts-many, out of the rule recently adopted, which is only to favor applications for plantation supplies and uses. Other interests will have to follow the course of the times. There were some tenders of good paper in small sums at the rate of 5 per cent per month, which were one of the features of the day. At this rate there is no desire to invest. We may say the market is without the pate of quotatione. In exchange there was very little done to day. The Counter rate for checks on New York ruled at from ¾ a discount, with concessions for large sums running down as low as 1½% discount Outside there were cales at 2%, and good sight drafts at a neighboring city were sold at 3% discount. In storing there were no transac
