Financial and Commercial TINANCIAL. Gold has been ratber regular the past week. I be quotation at 1 o'clock yesterday was 2i; premium. Dealers here are disposed to be careful la handling It, and require a larger margin than when It was selling at lower rates. Government Bonds have been strong in New York, for a tew days past, and an advance of 1J per cent, seems to be sustainel at latest advices. The opinion Is becoming prevalent that no great amount of our bonds will be returned from Europe, la consequence ot the " unpleasantness" existing there at present. Eastern exchange continues to be in demand by our bankers, yet the supply keeps pace with the demand; we quote pi r Daying, ana i ou per ji.uuu selling. .

Wheat has advanced only about five cants; Flour Is stationary, at last quotations ; and Bacon has experienced a slight advance. Tin Plate, la which an advance was anticipated, remains firm, an advance being entirely dependent on events yet to ocour. In drugs some changes are seen, and an advance is apparent la bright manufactured tobaccos. Coffees are firm without change, and the same ts true of Sugar, while Candies show a slight advance.

LEAF TOBACCO. Tbe tobacco banquet last week was largely attended by platters, country dealers and buyers generally, and the feast pre pared by the warehouses was elegant, and seemed to have been enjoyed by all. There were 675 hogsheads offered, of which Martin, Gardner & Co bad 337. Prices, tbe first day, were not satisfactory, but late In the evening there was a decided advance, which was fully maintained with much activity during the succeeding two days sale, rejections being few, and market closing firm. Cutting and manufacturing tobaccos were sold at as full prices as at any time during the season. Messrs. Martin, Gardner Co. will con tinue their sales regularly from day to day throughout tbe entire season. MANUFACTURED TOBACCO.
