M1oNETERY AND (cuOMMEIRCIAL.-B1usi
nees during the pWLt week has been very ac
tive. The fall trade, which, in this country,
• the heaviest of the season, has fairly com
menced, and we meet daily in our streets the
familiar faces of outside dealers who are in
town on the buy. The near approach of win
tr has stiffsned up prices a litt!-, and all sta
ples rule a little more firm then last week on
account of thbi fact, and the Increase of trade.
The leading ruliugs of the market we give
below, being as near the correct approximate
as is possible to arrive at in this part of the
country. Flour being the greatest of all sta
ples, is regarded with more interest than any
other and the fluctuations of prices create a
deeper inquiry from those who regard
the ups and downs of canned
fruits with little interest. We are compelled
to record a great advance in this article. It
has been bought up largely by speculators
who are not only relieving the market of all
surplus, but are buying of the farmers who
produce it throughout the country. It has,
we understand, advanced four dollars per
hundred, and is at present held firm for an
advancing market. There is a possibility
that four wall advance considerable before
the winter comes. Sugar is Arm at a slight
advance, and while the transactions have not
been large, there is a strong prosp -ct of a
rise. Coffee is quiet: very light sales have
been made and there is no advance; in fact,
coffee closeas much easier than of late.
Bacon, min considerable qanmtities, has changed
hands, but at no material advance; sellers are
offering at market rates and there is nodispo
sition on the pert of buyers to accept in any
quantities except to fill orders or bills.
Dried fruits: The market is be of any and
all varieties, except dried apples, of which
there is a very large supply. These are held
at 25 cts. by speculators on account of
speculative inquin es. Coal oil has had quite
an advance. It has been taken up by specu
lators, who control it to a certain extent at
$4, currency. The market closes feverish.
Matches rule quiet, owing to the elect of
several reports current in regard to the start
ing of some manufactories of the article.
Some sales have been made at $15 per grosn.
The market closes very weak. Cendles are
held irm at 40 cts; sympathising with coid
oil, the fature market wiU depend much
upon the standing of that article. Nais are
quiet; no substantial advance. The general
market remains comparatively unchanged.
Our merchants are to be congratulated upon
the trade of the past week, and while the
present weather lasts, there is no doubt but
that a large quantity of all kinds cf goods
will change hands.
DAILY MLAIL TO HALKNLA.-A few dray
ago the Poet Publishing Company, recegis
ing the importance of securing a daily mail
to Helena and knowing a petition to the
Postmaster General to that efect, would be
;ladly agned by oar citisens, printed a circu
lar petition which was sat to the various
Post ofces, having their mail distributed

From Wednesdays Daily.
SsaL.c-r Scaool.-The school of Pro
fessor Stone gave a select exhibition in
the lecture-room of the Methodist Episcopal
Church. Being apprised of the stair at a
late hour, we were able to devote but a few
moments to witaming one of the most inter
esting scenes which has come under our ob
seration in the Territory. The room was
crowded, and the exercises ased of smoothly
and pleasanuy. We are unacquainted with
the names of the yorag ladies and getlemen
who took parts, coumquestly we cannot par.
ticularise. The performaace throughout evi
denced a high order of talent, much study
and careful practice. We trust that Protfeor
Stone will do greater justice to hip school,
and confer a pleasure upon our ctisens, by
holding his next exhibition an a more com
modious room, and exteuding a more general
invitation, for last night's entertainment was
really a treat, and would so be considered by
our citisens.
Dg.| LODGE ITEMS.- From the Inde
pendent, which comes a welcome visitor to
our sanctum, we gather the following items
of Interest from that locality.....On last
Wednesday evening the new Court House was
dedicated to the uses and purposes for which
it was built, by the Deer Lodge bar, by ap
propriate ceremonies. It seems to have been
a delightful occasion.... There seems to be
much complaint in regard to the irregularity
of the mail between Virginia City and that
place. We are not informed in regard to the
cause.... Professor Swallow's excellent mall
is still at work upon the Ballarat ore. The
yield, so far, has exceeded the Professor's ex
pectations, and he not only feels assured that
his money has been well invested, but he has
rent drawings and plans for more machinery,
Cast, which Is to be forwrrded to him in the
.ring.
HELENA LIBRARY A~e[CIATION.-An
adjourned meeting of the above association
was held at the Whitlach building at -T
o'clock, p. m., November 24th, 1868, which
was largely attended. The reports of the
committees appointed last Friday evening,
were received and the committees discharged.
A Constitution was adopted, not dissimilar
from the Constitution and by-laws of the
Young Men's Association of Chicago. A
committee, consisting of C. Hedges, W. F.
Sanders, J. W. Whitt-ch and Ben Stickney,
jr., was appointed to solicit subecriptions to
procure a library. The room committee were
given further time to report. The associa
tion adjourned to the evening of the 27th
inst., at 74 o'clock, November 24th, 1868.
W. F. Saomass, Secretary.
C. Ranoan, President.
Tae HIStORICAL SocIrrY.-The following
request of the Historical Society, through its
President, shows that the incorporation has
some vitality, though it has been torpid these
many days. We undlerstand it is the anten
tion during the present winter to awaken its
energies and put this worthy institution in
the course of a living experience. The Posr
cheerfully complies with the request:
To ans MoArrsa Post Pt'rLIsuING COMPANY:
Gentlemen: The Historical Society, in
corporated under ea Act of the first Legisla
tire Assembly, is desirous of preserving the
files of the wkly papers of the Territory.
It is without funds, and the expenses already
incurred. in procuring seventy or eighty vol
umes of book. the nucleus of its library, have
thus far bee, borne by a few of its friends.
If you wouel not deem it too onerous a bar
den upon .ourselves. and would be pleased to
address the soeiety, in my care, a copy of
your weekly, regularly, I would be glad to
preserve them for binding, and you wonld
place the Society mader obligati!s as lasting
as its existence. V y. s uNDERS,
Prvs't Historical Society of Montana.
APPLES.-It is nOW no unusual sight
to see one or more wagons moving through
our streets with sevesal aucious apples stack
upon a stick, announcing the fact that an
abundance of this easmical fruit is for sale.
Thre teams are from Bitter Root Valley,
where the apples are raisd. They are of sev
eral splendid varieties sad wall compete in
sise, grade and Savor with those raised in the
western states. The time is not far distant
when in Moutam will be raised a sacient
quantity of frait to supply all the wanst of
her people. The trait mines is just begin
ning to receive that degree of attention it
deerves and elsim, and i a few years or
chards ta our valleys will be no unusual sight.

OOLD HIr .-fWe were pasued to re
dve yesterday a visit free a old Chicagoan,
Mr. D. W. Corbin, who is now on his way
home to atteod to the shipmest of a tweuty
stamp quarts mill. now being manufactured
at the Eagle Works of that city, which are
so fully representod by Mr. Clark, now ia
this city. Mr. Corbin has been devoting his
time and attention to the examimatioa of
Gold Hill, a rich and proll quarts dsriet,
two miles north of Diamomd City. He is the
disaoever and owner of several very valua
ble leds in that locality, eaaag which we
may mention the Jack Casement. Bob Tail,
Western Star, and T. C. Durant. "hey are
all well deined, of good width, and have bee
sufciently developed to give vidence a are
excellence. It is the purpose of Mr. Corbin
to have his mill in full operation on the T.
C. Durant lode by July next-by that time he
will have sufcient quarts takeL from the
lead to keep the min is costant operation at
least six months. Mr. Corbin is a man of
wealth who has chosea rather to come out
among the mines himself before investing,
and has, by his own laborious investigation,
demonstrated the fact to his satisfaction that
the leads will pay. We wish him every pos
sible succem in his enterprise.
DEPARHT'ttE.-The next coach takes
from our midst one of the brightest of the
legal lights of Montana, Wm. A. Chumasero,
Esq., who goes East on a visit daring the
winter months. Mr. Chumasero came to Vir
ginia City at an early day, with a high repu
tation for legal attainments. Since that tame
he has, with the growth and increased pros
perity of the Territory, built up an immense
practice, which is commenurate with his
high standing as a member of the Malema Bar.
He posesses rare aility as a pleader, and ome
of the best legal mrinds in the Territory, deals
in the reason and facts of law instead of the
fanciful deductions, and seeks in his practice
to ever be on the side upon which
justice stands as a colleague. While we re
gret his departure, we are pleased that he in
tends returning in the spring with his family.
GREAT QUARTZ SALE.-One of the
largest transactions in mines which ever trans
pired in the Territory took place yesterday in
our city, some seven or eight hundred feet of
the celebrated Park Mane having been bought
by J. W. Whitlals, the pleaeer quarts man
of Montana, of Bywater. Kennedy and oth
er. The Park Mine has for several years at
tracted great attention on account of its ex
ceeding richnam, and has been pronounced a
Arst clam mine by the beet authorities. Mr.
Whttlatch has now substantially endorsed the
mine with his cash, and will, with his usual
energy, proceed at once to develop his ledge
by extensive works. He is now the owner of
1,060 feet on this miane, and, very naturally,
"don't care whether it snows or not."
TnAnKXs lvl\I.-To-day having been
appointed and set apart by the President as a
day of Thanksgiving, and the observance of
the same having been properly enjoined upon
us, as a people, by the Governor of Montana,
the gentlemen connected with this ofce de
sinng to observe the day in a becoming man
ner, there will not be any paper issued from
this oeo So-merrow morning.

TEMP.LAR FESTIVAI..-The festival of
the Good Templar Lodge, which takes place
next Tuesday evening at the Court House,
promises to be a spledid eaccess. It is got

will be spared but that it will be one of the
