THI5 PUBLIC CRKDIT AND THE APPRECHTION OP THE

CUKREIfCr.

The quietude of the money market is being restored, and

aa tire return flow of curroocjr is setting in this way there is

a fair prospect that periaanent ease would supervene if thedisturbing forces which caused the late stringency had notbeen in part artificial. But as there has been some locking

up of currency, and as the tight money men have not

accomplished much by their manoeuvres, there is some fear

lest this clique of speculators may make another desperate

effort to accomplish their purposes. The heavy engagementfor shipping gold by the European steamer to-day and the

recent drain of the legal tender reserve from the banks maypossibly encourage some movement of this sort. The late

activity and advance at the Stock Exchange increases the

danger of such a contingency. Hence cautious, prudent

men will for the present avoid being too sanguine, and will

be circumspect and wary in their engagements for the

immediate future. For the moment the state of the moneymarket has had an unfavorable influence on the progre.°s of

the new loan. Mr. C. C. Norvell, the Government agent,

informs us that the aggregate is 50 millions, and he is very

sitnguine that by the 1st of M-»y, when the bonds are ready

for delivery, the first 100 millions will ba taken. If this

should be so, the second 100 millions will probably go

rapidly, especially as Mr. Tk)utwell says that when these 200

millions shall have been subscribed for there are to be no

more Fives issued alone at par, but subscribers will be

obliged to take equal amounts of 4, 4^ and 5 per cent bonds.

In this event the Fives will be worth a premium, and a

considerable impetus will lie given to the demand for them

directly the public mind becomes satisfied ihat this pro-

gramme will be carried out without delay.

And why should it not be successfully carried out?

Nothing can be more certain than that a five per cent,

long bond of the United States, principal and interest paya-

ble in gold, is worth more than par, even were there no

exemption from taxation. Nothing has prevented our six

per cents, from going far above the preeent quotations but

the incertitude which has sqft'-d npon th^se sccuritic, first

Page 6: April 15, 1871, Vol. 12, No. 303 - FRASER · mmtk HUNT'SMERCHANTS*MAGAZINE, REPRESENTINGTHEINDUSTRIALANDCOMMERCIALINTERESTSOI'TIIEUNITEDSTATES. VOL.12. NEWYORK,APRIL16,1871. NO.303.!3lbucrtiscmcnt3-A'tTertnement

454 THE CHRONICLE. [Aprfl 15, 1871

from the talk about repudiation ; then from the expectation

of early redemption ; next from the projects for a forced

exchange of these sixes for bonds at four per cent ; and

finally, from the foolish attempts of certain interested

parties jto^ stir up hostility and to foster irritation between

this country and England, so as to produce an impression

in foreign money markets hostile to our national credit and

to the popularity of our bonds.

These and similar causes have disturbed the demand for

our securitips; and ot course tbe Franco-Prussian war caused a

sudden cessation of the new demand in one of our best Euro-

pean markets. But every such influence has ceased to

operate to the prejudice of our bonds, and now there is no

conceivable reason why our new fives should not go up above

par. This being conceded the new loan is a bargain and all

who buy the bonds at existing prices will make money by

the operation.

Mr. Norvell has prepared some very interesting tables

showing the progress of the war debt since it reached its

maximum in July, 1865, almost six years ago. Tbe princi-

pal of the debt was then 2,756 millions. In four years on

the 1st of March, 1869, it fell to 2,491 millions, showing a

reduction of 265 millions. Since March, 1869, the princi-

pal of the debt has fallen to 2,268 millions, showing a reduc-

tion of 223 millions more. By this it appears ihat in less

than six years we have paid off no less than 488 millions of

dollars, or half as much as the war indemnity the exaction

of which from France has called down on Prussia so muchof public reproof throughout Europe. Such a simple exhibi-

tion of the fiscal strength ot our country which has twice paid

off its debt is very timely, and does more to improve our

credit in the money markets of the world than wkolo roftms

of ingenious argument or elaborate disquisition.

There is another series of facts set forth in Mr. Norvell's

tables. We refer to those regarding the currency. In

1865, 1869, and 1871 the aggregate legal tenders outstanding

were as follows

:

the same thing whether the demand for currency

is increased or the supply is diminished; for the pre-

mium on] gold is lowered by every change which brings

the supply and demand nearer together. From

this we see that two different influences have gone

on together since 1865 which have tended to depress the

price of gold. First, our paper currency has been appre-

ciated by the contraction of its volume from 1,048 millions to

762 millions ; and secondly, the field for the use of currency

has been enlarged so that we now need 30 millions at least

more than in 1865. The effect which this appreciation

should legitimately exert on the public credit is too obvious

to need proof.

$1,048,261,304 $756,399,718 $762,932,066

From these figures we observe that during the 4 years end

ing 1st March, 1869, the volume of the currency fell from

1048 millions to 756 millions, or nearly one-third. During

that period gold fell from 145 in July, 1865, to 131 in April

1869. From the latter date to the present time the gold

premium has further declined to 110 although the currency

has not declined but has, indeed, just begun to increase

again. From these facts it might seem as if the volume of

the greenback currency has little or nothing to do with the

price of gold. Hence many persons have positively

affirmed that there is no direct control exercised by the

volume of the currency on its rates of depreciation. This

inference is of course incorrect and arises from a misin-

terpretation of the facts. The law which regulates the

value of an irredeemable currency sustained by the credit

of a firm government is well established. Such a currency

depreciates as the volume rises above the proper level and

appreciates as its volume falls below that level. If, then,

with a circulation of 1000 millions "old is at 150 it shows

the proper currency level ought to be 666. Again, it with

the level of 760 millions the premium is 110 the proper

currency level would be 680 millions. In other words the

country has expanded its business since 1865. It has built

a Pacific railroad. It has added to the national wealth. It

has increased its population. It requires more currency

now than it did. And for practical purposes it amounts to

BOTEBJiOR GEARY AND THE COAl STRIKES.

The proclamation of Governor Geary has been productive

of the best results ; and although it is open to grave objec-

tion in several important points, still it was evidently

prepared with a view to the exigencies of the situation. The

explosive elements of a general conflagration have been long

accumulating among the miners under the leadership of men

of great experience, cunning, and sagacity. If any furtlier

outbreak occurs the authorities will probably lose no time

in securing the ringleaderf, and in incarcerating without

bail the men who are chiefly responsible for the strike, and

for the vote which ordered it at the close of last year.

It is largely due to Governor Geary's prompt action

that the troubles at Scranton, to which we referred last

week, have not been extended. Tbe men injured by the

rioters are not dead, but are in a fair way for recovery.

Tbe strike itself is less popular, however, and the miners

generallj' want to go to work. Every true friend of the

workmen in this country will rejoice at this. The indica-

tions of returning subordination are increasing every day,

but the coal strike has inflicted uutold ouffarings and losses

on the people. If in any modern nation forty or fifty thou-

sand operatives had for four months been without cause

condemned to idleness by the command of some despotic

sovereign, the whole world would have exclaimed against

the outrage, and he would be in imminent danger of being

hurled from his throne by a general uprising. Most of the

Pennsylvania miners have families, and their numbers will

aggregate 250 thousand persons, many of whom have been

plunged into poverty, and now see starvation staring them

in the face. Their frugal savings are spent, their credit is

exhausted, they have gone into debt to the shopkeepers, who

are now themselves on the verge of bankruptcy. One

million ot persons it is computed tre directly dependent on

the coal mining business for a livelihood, and 300 millions

of capital is invested in this business in Pennsylvania alone.

"When the fiat was issued to strike last December the miners

were evidently ill-advised. They overestimated their own

strength and they underestimated the forces with which they

had to cope.

These men are mostly immigrants, and have yet much

progress to make before they will unlearn the mischievous

lessons instilled into them in their European serfdom, and

rise to the level of the privileges of freedom in the

American Republic. We are in favor of giving these men

good wages. They ought to earn the fiiU value of thei'

labor. But this labor is unskilled, or nearly so. After a

year's experience as laborers, multitudes of them- have be-

come miners, with no further instruction or training; so

little •){ skill and knowledge does their art demand. But

unskilled workmen in no other occupation, agricultural or

manufacturing, earn so large wages as miners in England or

here, because of the greater risk and the more repulsive

surroundings under which the miners work in the bowels of

the earth. The minors have their rights and we would not

ourUil them, E?ery minor has, for example, the undoubted

privilege of sotting his own price on his work, and he may

refuse to labor if his employer will not pay as largo wages

aa the miner thinks he is worth. He may also make com-

binations with his fellow-workmen, and adopt lawful methods

for increasing his wages ; and foiling to accomplish this he

may leave his unappreoiativo master and go elsewhere in

quest of better fortunes. When we welcomed these men as

emigrants to our free soil we did so because we expected

them to be good citizens and honest workers. When they

cannot earn a living at one trade it is their duty to peace-

fully betake themselves to some other. They must not seek to

control their employers' business, nor to intimidate and pro-

hibit any fellow-miner from earning bread by going to work.

The miners, we say, were iU-advised when they began this

strike. What is it that they claim 1 First they say that

the coal product of this country is too large, and that some-

body must be intrusted with the duty of making coal scarce,

and of reducing the annual product from 25 million tons to

15 millions. They say that they, the hired workmen, are the

proper persons to use this control, and to produce an artifi-

cial scarcity ; so that high prices may be kept up and coal

may be prevented from becoming cheaper. The coal com-

pabies and the railroad people, as these miners say, cannot

control the supply, or will not control it, because it is to

their interest to bring as much ooal into the market as

possible. Hence, as there is nobody else to cut oif the

alleged surplus product, it is a matter of necessity that the

workmen shall take the responsibility. This bold and

novel reasoning was carried out with corresponding audacity.

The miners had previously been gathered into one compactwell-Orgaaized society, wbioh is the atronn^st trades-union

in the country. It bears the euphemic name of the Work-mens' Benevolent Association. Before the late strike the

union had b«oomo so rich tka to aflbrd to pay its officers

handsome salaries, one or two ranging as high, we believe,

as five thousand dollars a year. These ingenious leaders

propounded the following scheme and got their ignorant

followers to adopt it to their own ruin. Eight months work,

said these plausible leaders and guides of the miners, were

enough to supply all the coal that could be sold at high

prices. A year of 12 months work would not enable aminer to earn a larger sum than a year of 8 months,

because the rate of his wages rose and fell with the price of

coal, and 12 months yield would fill the market so full that

ooal would be cheap and wages therefore low. This

sophistical reasoning inflamed the imagination of the miners,

who were delighted at the thought ofgetting 12 months' wagesfor 8 months' work. This discussion closed in last Decem-ber. The strike was then decreed. It soon became general.

And now, after four months idleness, the miners want to goto work again. The majority have long been anxious to do

so. But the question is on what terms 1

Arbitration has been oflen prescribed as a remedy for

strikes. But arbitration is evidently inapplicable when, as

in this case, the workmen's claims are so sweeping and so

unprecedented. To settle disputed rates of wa^es and other

subordinate matters arbitration has often tound itself asufficient expedient. But to decide who shall control

production, and whether 25 million tons a year shall beproduced or 30 millions or 50 millions, is not a matter foj

arbitration between 40 thousand hired workmen who do not

own a dollar of mine property and their employers whohave 300 millions of dollars invested in the coal fields. Thequestion of supreme control has to be first settled andfinally decided. Not until then will there be free scope for

arbitration.

Thb ia really Um «hit of th« whole difliculty. Th« work-

men want to wield lupreme control, They aak to be allowed to

enforce laws, and to make regulations controlling the work

in the mines, and prohibiting their masters from employing" black-legs," by which enviable name they distinguish mennot belonging to their Union. They seek to place rapreme

power over the coal fields and their millions of cspitel in

hands of the leaders of the miners, the chief of whomwork neither aa miners nor laborers, nor owners, nor

operators. Thes leaders do not possess a single dollar of

property in any mine, and some ot them, it is said, have

never earned wages in any mine by honest toil since they

came to this country to live by their wits. How true this

may be we do not know. What is certain is these leaders

wield a prodigious influence, are extremely adroit and hwv«

evidently acquired experience in organizing strikes abroed,

for in this country until of late they have had little aoope

for displaying their organizing and controlling powers.

From what has been said it will be seen that there is

doubt as to the early termination of the strike. The menwill not concede the supreme control, and their masters say

that mining property will not be safe with control in their

workmen's hands. Both parlies are willing to arbitrate on

other points. But on this fundamental article both are firm.

Meanwhile there is one thing which is too much forgotten

by both parties to this terrible struggle. The mines form

an important part of the national wealth. We need the

coal and must have it. Forty millions of people claim the

ri^ht to have a rapid development of this and other coal

fields of the United States. We want from Pennsylvania

not only 15 millions of tons but 50 millions, to generate

steam, drive myriads of labor-saving machines, increase the

natural production, and enlarge the public wealth. Eng-

land raises annually 100 millions of tons of coal. Whyshould we raise less ? She would never have borne so

easily her huge national debt but for jher vast productive

machinery, which, with the steam engines that drive it andwith the economies which attend it, is computed to be

equivalent to the work of an army of producers outnumber-

ing the whole adult inhabitants of the globe. If there is anyone mineral product which our stupendous debt and heavy

taxation compel us to have free from prohibitive enact-

ments, either by miner's unions or more legitimate authori-

ties, it is coal.

RAILROAD EARNINGS IN MARCH AND FROM JANDAKT I TO

APRIL 1.

Earnings for the month of March are, with some few ex-

ceptions, larger than in the same month last year. The

increase is not in every case of large amount, but it is satis-

factory to parties interested in Railro.ids to see a balance on

the side of increstse, although the amount may in itself be

insignificant. The month of March, 1870, was not a par-

ticularly favorable one for railroad traffic, and earnings were

generHlly below those of the previous year, a fact which is

to l>e remembered in estimating the relative importance of

the increase in each case, as shown in the table below. The

new tariiT upon through fi-eights, which was in operation

during the last half of April does not appear to have

unfavorably affected earnings, or, at least, not so materially

that its effect is perceptible in the returns of those roads

which would naturally feel it most.

The tendency of freight movements is now continually

towards an increase of railroad business as against the slower

transportation by water, and it is reasonable to assume that

if the crops of the next few years should be no larger than

the average of those grown during the past five, the rel»-

tive proportion of produce shipped by rail would be much

larger than it has been heretofore.

Telegrams have taken the place of letters as a means of

communication between merchants, and it is often more

profitable to ship goods by rail at a slightly increased cost,

than to take the risk incurred by waiting a longer time, with

all the uncertainties of a changing market. A topic of much

interest in this connection is the subject of steam power on

the Erie Canal, which has been so largely discussed during

the past few weeks ; it is possible that the appropriation ol

150,000 by the New York Legislature, and the great impor-

tance given to the subject in Commercial circles at the

present t'me, may result in drawing out some invention

which will apply steam power successfully to canal navi-

gation.

The Chicago and Northwestern road, which has not

published its monthly earnings under the new administra-

tion, has recently issued a statement showing the following :

Gross earnings for nine months ending February 28, 1870,

$9,570,094 ;gross earnings for nine months ending February

The first quarter of 1871 now having elapsed, the com-

parison of railroad traffic with the previous year becomes of

more interest than heretofore, and it is gratifying to observe

that in most cases the roads show a considerable improve-

ment in their earnings over the first quarter of 1870. It is

also noticeable that a material increase is shown by several

roads which have not increased their mileage, while others

which are working a number of miles more than during the

same period of 1870, show a decrease in traflic. There is

nothing remarkable in this exhibit, however, when it is

remembered that new roads are usually opened in a sparsely

settled country and make very small earnings at first,

although they may subsequently be (it great value to the

original main line.

[From our awn correspondent.]

London, Saturday, April 1.

We are now approaching the close of the financial year, and the-

last returns issued by the Exchequer department shows that not-

withstanding the war, the financial position of the country is

most satisfactory. As a finance minister, Mr. Lowe has been

entirely successful, for not only do the actual receipts exceed his-

estimates, but the real expenditure falls below that upon which

he had calculated when delivering his last statement. We find,

therefore, that from the Ist of April, 1870, to March 25, 1871, the

total receipts into the Exchequer, amounted tO''£68,532,249, against

£74,193,865 in the corresponding period in 1869-'70, a diminution

which is due to certain important remissions of taxation. MrLowe's estimated receipts were only £67,634,000, so that, although

another week's collections have to be received, they are nearly

£1,000,000 less than the real receipts. Again, the total expendi-

ture has been £79,233,180, against £82,483,177 in the previous

year, being a decrease of rather more than £3,000,000. Mr. Lowe-

estimated that the charges for the interest on the National debt,,

the supply services voted by Parliament, and for the telegraphs,

would be £69,486,000. But up to the close of last week only

£66,138,011 had been disbursed on those accounts, being about the

same as during the corresponding period in 1869-'70. When we

remember that for some months past, our expenditure for the

army has been largely increased, and that immense preparations

are being made with a view to provide against the uncertainties

of the future, the above figures come upon us with surprise. They

are not only an indication of the ability of our Finance Minister,

but they also show that the country is in a very prosperous con-

dition. Mr. Lowe has promised to deliver his financial statement

on the first convenient Government night after the Eaater recess.

The statement will be looked forward to with more than usual

Interest, as most persons anticipate an increase of taxation in con-

sequence of the large military preparations now in progress. Mr.

LKJwe, however, ha» deceived us more than once, but it is gratify-

Mr. Gosehen, the successor of Mr. Childers at the Admirality,

brought forward the navy estimates on Monday night. The ser-

vice was represented as being in an excellent condition, if the

difficulty of finding competent seamen to man the modem men-of-

war be excepted. If this cannot be overcome, tho First Lord of

the Admirality proposes to supply the defect by training a larger

numl>«r of boys for the service. The failure of the French fleet

to carry out any plan during the late war has induced the govern-

ment to stop the building of any additional turret ships, and to

decide on the construction of a class of vessels adapted for

fighting in shallow water. The amount voted for the navy was

£9,756,866.

A rapid accumulation of money is now taking place in the

London market, owing to the distress which has been occasioned

by the state of affairs in France. The outward movement which

was about to take place has been entirely checked, and there is

now an entire absence of an export demand for gold. The arrivals

of late have been very conaiderable, and tho result has been that

since the news of the disturbances in Paris more than £1,000,000

has been sent into the l)ank; and there is every indication that

the accumulation of gold in the bank vaults will be very con-

aiderable. For not only is a stop put to the outflow to France, butnumbers are also leaving the country, and are bringing with themall the wealth they have the power of converting into cash. Asregards any rise in the bank rate, that is a question about whichthere can be bat one opinion, and the possibility of it may now be

It has been found difficult to negotiate bills on Paris, bat billa

exchange is flat. The state of the gold market has been referred

In the Stock Exchange business has partaken of maeh exdta-

shares, have been dealt in at a considerable advance in prices.

Foreign stocks, however, have been dull, and Turkish have been

prominently depressed. United States S-20'8 and 10-40's, however,

have been detJt in to a fair extent, and have improved somewhat

The funded loan of the United States still attracts but little

attention here, and is not dealt in on the Stock Exchange. Theagents have nevertlieless received some small subscriptions.

Trade remains firm, and a good business is in progress. Themanufacturers appear, however, to have pretty nearly completed

their Spring trade, but as we are now fairly into Spring, the

retail houses may bo expected to be very busy. The following

relates to the trade of Manchester :

The tone of this market since Tuesday has been quiet, and the tendency ofprices where any cliau^e has occurred has been rather in favor of buyers,what cbau;;e has taken place, however, has beeu so very sli;rht that quotationsremain the same, and any orders which have been ffircn out to-day have beenat least at the full prices of this day lasf week. The unsettled slate of afl'airs

in France has not been without its effect here, but things in thatcountry havegot into such a state that really any further developments against order andsntho ity would have very little effect. The very worst has now bc^endiscounted, and money has become more abundant here in consequence of theinsecurity in France. The cotton market remains rather Hat, owing to thelarge receipts of Americin cotton which arc reported for the week. TheImports, however, are small, owing to ihe east winds, and there has been nopressure to sell. Spinners are so full of orders that they make any concessionin prices with Uie greatest reluctance, but to-day they have been rather moreopen to contract further engagements than they were on Tuesday last.The demand for export yarns has beeu rather flat since Tuesday last ; never-

theless prices remain very steady, and quotations are unaltered since this daylast week.

During the week the weather has been colder, but dry, and

sowing is now completed. There is every indication of a favora-

ble season. The wheat trade has been firm, and English produce

is rather dearer. For export a good business is doing.

Central Pariac R R Gold Bonds.—An important advance ig

again noticed in these favorite securities, which are now quoted inall the princijial limincial markets of the World. The entire issueof tlieae bunds is a little under $20,000,000 and no more can boissued by the company. Nearly the entire amount is distributedamong private investors and financial corporations in this countryand among investors in Germany and Great Britain, where theyare ranki^d with our Uovernment bonds. In view of the probableearly reduction ot the interest on the Government bonds a sliarpdemand lia.s recently developed itself from the same class ofinvestors who have been holding five twenties. Should thisdemand continue, as it now seems Ukely, there is no reason whythe bonds sliould not advance to about the price of the five percent. Governiuout issues.

NEW LOAN OF THE UNITED STATES.

The subscriptions to the New Five Per Cent. Stock of the United States

now amount to about $60,000,000. They are confidently expected to reach

$200,000,000 by the time the New Bonds are ready for delivery in May. The

proposals of the Secretary of the Treasury will then be changed to the follow-

ing programme

:

First. Bonds to the amount of three hundred millions of dollars, payable in

coin, at the pleasure of the United States, after ten years from the date of

their issue, and bearing interest payable quarterly in coin, at the rate of five

per cent, per annum.Second. Bonds to the amount of three hundred millions of dollars, payable

in coin, at the pleasure of the United States, after fifteen years from the date

of their issue, and bearing interest, payable quarterly in coin, at the rate of

four and a half per cent, per annum.Third. Bonds to the amount of seven hundred millions of dollars, payable

in coin, at the pleasure of the United States, after thirty years from the date

of their issue, and bearing interest, payable quarterly in coin, at the rate of

four per cent, per aimum.Subscriptions to the loan will liave preference, after the above-mentioned

two hundred millions are taken up, in the following order, namely

:

Wir9t. Subscriptions for equal aiuuuuta or v;acH olasD wt bouvlo.

Secrmd. Subscriptions for equal amounts of bonds bearing interest at the

rate of four and a lialf per cent., and of bonds bearing interest at the rate of

Ave per cent.

Third. Subscriptions for any five per cent, bonds that may not be subscribed

tor in the preceding classes.

Subscriptions to the remainder of the $200,000,000 of five per cents., wUchare unconditional, are now going on, and the bonds will soon be issued to the

subscribers, who can receive a ecrip certificate in advance, if they desire to

pay their gold or exchange United States 5-208 at once, in the registered or

coupon form. Registered bonds will be issued of the denominations of $50,

$100, $500, $1,000, $5,000 and $10,000 ; and coupon bonds of each denomination

except the last two. The interest will be payable in the United States at the

office of the Treasurer, any Assistant Treasurer, or designated depositary of

the Government, quarterly, on the first days of February, May, August and

November, in each year.

The bonds of the several classes aforesaid, and the interest thereon, are

•xempt from the payment of all taxes or dues of the United States, as well as

from taxation in any form by or under State, municipal, or local authority.

After maturity, the bonds last issued will be first redeemed, by classes and

numbers, as may be designated by the Secretary of the Treasury.

The reduction of the public debt since the dose of the war of the rebellion,

and the relief, at the same time, to the annual burden of interest, are >sfollows

Xlie money Market.—The money market has shown some

irregularity during the week, closing at rates much easier than

those current for the first few days. The movements, which wepreviously noticed, in the direction of a " lock up " of legal

tenders, have been further developed, showing pretty clearly that

from $3,000,000 to $5,000,000 had been withdrawn from circulation

since the first of the current month, though it was done so

gradually as not to disarrange the daily clearing house bank state-

ments, and therefore did not attract the usual attention. Thefunds thus withheld have recently been returned to the market

,

and the attempt to make stringent money and depress stocks is

generally considered to have been a complete failure, either from

dissensions among the parties to the combination, or because it

was abandoned by common consent, through fear that the project

might be defeated by the Secretary of the Treasury. Thesharpest activity in call loans was on Saturday, which, coming

between Good Friday, a semi-holiday, and Sunday, gave the clique

a good opportunity to surprise those parties who had not beencareful to make their arrangements for money beforehand, andrates went up to 7 per cent and 7 gold, with a commission also paid

in some cases. On Monday rates opened firm under the impressionthat the manipulation would be continued, but all efforts to keepup the firmness failed, and there was an abundance of loanablefunds in the afternoon at 6@7 per cent with exceptions at five

;

upon which basis the bulk of business has since been transacted,

with a growing tendency towards ease, and some loans madeto-day on Government collatteral at 4 per cent.

The Bank reserves as shown by the last statement are unusuallylow, though it is expected that the weekly clearing house returns

of to-morrow will show an improvement, as some of the leading

banks report moderate receipts of currency from the interior, andit is generally expected that this return of currency will nowBlcadily incrcaoo.

The following was the decrease in each item of the bankreturns from the previous week : Loans, $975,057 ; Specie,.

$2,463,506; Circulation, $6,8S8 ; Deposits, $6,344,438; Legaltenders, $2,324,546. The net result of these figures show thebanks to be $3,200,220 weaker In their eicoso over legnl reserve,the whole excess being only $4,617,544.

ITnlted. State* Bond*.—Government Securities were dull andinactive in the early part of the week without any importantfeatures in the market, but during the past two days have beenstronger with an improved business, closing at an advance of

about 4 per cent on 5-20s of 1867; i per cent on 10-408 and | oncurrency sixes. The advance has been based to some extent uponthe higher quotations in London, where the 5-20s of 1862 sold

to-day at 90J ex-interest, and 1867s at 92J, the former being at

the price named only i per cent below par in Gold. Subscriptions

to the new loan have progressed moderately and will agregate at

the close of this week about $60,000,000. Mr. Boutwell hasdeferred any changes in his arrangements for negotiating the

loan until the first of May, when his action in the matter will beinfluenced by the progress which has been made up to that time.

It is said that the henorable Secretary entertains some different

ideas in regard to the business details necessary for placing the

loan, since his recent visit to New York and Boston, and there

seems to be good reason to anticipate that when the bonds are

ready, after the first of May, the progress of the loan will be rapid,

both at home and abroad ; there is, indeed, a possibility that a very

large proportion of the five per cents may then |be taken in one

lot by a combination of capitalists.

One element of strength in our own market is now found in

the diminished supply of 5-20 bonds, since the large purchases

by Government, continued for two years, have withdrawn

so considerable an amount of the floating stock. Offerings at the

Government purchase of $2,000,000 on Wednesday amounted to

$7,419,550.The following were the highest and lowest prices of leading

government Becurities at the_&ard on each day of the past week

iflhowinK tlie liigliPHt pricoB of the year. When the market wasrrelieved from the deprewilnsr in8iiencecauBed by the attemptB to

itamper with money, and call loana returned to per cent, a newIHfe was imparted to Block operations, with ranch buoyancy in

£rices, as above noticed. The attempt to depress the market was,

1 fact, rather favorable than otherwise, an it had the etlect of• creating a Iar>(o "short" interest—always a good basis uponwhich to advance prices. Stocks are undoubtedly controlled veryranch by cliques, who are carrying large blocks, and are obliged

to take wimt is thrown on the market by outside parties, until prices

shall have been kept at a high point sufficiently long to enablethem gradually to ' unload." New York Central and HudsonRiver has sold up to 97J. equal to lOtJ, plus dividend; I,a)<e Shore

105J. Reading t09i. Northwestern 9Ci, do. preferred 98, Ohio andand Mississippi .53J. Wabash 62J, and Union Pacific 33, which areabove the highest figures that have been known on these stocks

for a long time past. Mariposa preferred sold up to 12J under themanipulation of the new party having control of it. Theannouncement that the stockholders of Harlem Railroad havevoted to add |2,000.000 to the capital stock had but little effect onthe price, as it had been di8counte<l. The proceeds of the sale of

this stock is to be devoted to the completion of the new uniondepot at Forty-second street. Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnatiand Indianapolis sold up to 91|; Panama has declined to 61^.

State and Railroad Bonda.-The Southern State bonds havel>een variable on a fair volume of transactions, and close in most•cases at an advance on the prices of last week, except South Caro-linas. which are lower.

There have been some purchases of the North Carolina specialtax railroad bonds, said to be for the account of parties who arelargely interested in railroad property, and who are seeking toobtain control of roads in North Carolina by exchanging tlieseTwnds, purchased at a very low price, for the stocks held by the«Ute.The questions before the Courts in Louisiana as to the right of

the State authorities to increase the debt beyond the limit of'$25,000,000 established by constitutional amendment, has beendecided in favor of the State auditor, the Court directing him notto draw further warrants ; the case has now been appealed to thehighest Court of the State.

The interest on the Alabama and Chattanooga Railroad bonds,is being paid by the State of Alabama, we understand, upon allthe bonds issued or endorsed by the State, as it was not foundpracticable to establish distinctions between different holders ; thecourse pursued is creditable to the State authorities.

Central Pacific Railroad bonds are reported in active demandand have advanced to 97i. Union Pacifies have also been strongeron the better prospecta for the road under a new administration

Tbe Gold IHarket.-ak<!d. no M'< waa mad« at the Doard.

Qold remained dull and without aay fea-ture of Interoet until Thursday, when the large amount ofbids for the 12.000,000 sold by Oovernment—footing up some$1037S,000—developed such a large demand as to give strength tothe market and advance the premium to llOf. To-day there waaconsiderable activity on the prospect of large shipments of cointo-morrow, reported at al)out $1,100,000, and the price furtheradvanced to llOf. The principal Bnppf>rtsto the market previouslyhave been the large customs demand amounting for the week to$2,952,000, and the short interest, which is shown to i>e considerableby the rates for carrying, which have ranged from "flat" to 2 percent, these rates being also the quotations to.day. The tone is

strong at the close nnder the influences noted, but the prevail-ing speculative feeling for the week has hefa rather on the side oflower prices.

The following table will show the conrse of the gold premiaaeach day of the week past

132 p. c. premlnTnPoreica Exchance.—There have been uniform firmness in the

rates of leading drawers, and 110 has been the asking price for 60ilayn nicrliuf;, mriiic houset* not even allowing the usual commia-sion off this price. The reduction of the Bank of England rate to2i on Thursday, made in consequence of the non-withdrawal ofspecie to the Continent, has seemed to have little effect upon ourrates, as the reduction was probably anticipated. The demand forexchange has been very fair, though in many cases buyers havebeen held in check by the higli rates, and orders in brokers handscould not be filled within the limits named by their customers.A natural result of this condition of affairs is seen in a compara-tively large amount of specie shipments, the total engagementsfor to-morrow's steamers being reported this evening at upwardsof $1,000,000. The large imixjrts of foreign merchandise, smallexports of U. S, Bonds or other securities, and the natural fallingoff in the supply of Ck)tton bills as the season advances, would allseem to point towards continued firm rates and considerable specieexports.

Cotton exports for the week amount to 83,987 balee—producingabout $5,265,984 in Gold, against 49,051 balee in the same week of1870, producing $4,610,794 Qold, at the prices then current.Quotations are as follows:

The figures just after the nameof the company indicate the No. of the CHRONICLE in which a report ol the Com-pany was last published. A star (*) indicates Ucued roads ; in the dividend oolumnx=M:<ra,* s=^tock or scrip,

4. The Tables of Railroad, Canal and Other Bondsoccupy in all, four pages, two of which will be published in each number. Inthese pages the bonds of Companies which have been consolidated are frequently

f:ivew under the name of Consolidated Corporation. The date given in bracketsmmediately alter the name of each Company, indicates the time at which the state-

ment of its finances was made. In the "Interest Column" the abbreviations are asfollows : J. & J.=January and July ; F. &, A.=February and August ; M. & S.=March and September; A. & O. April and October; M. &, N.=May and Novem-ber; J. (fe D.=June and December Q.—J. =Quarterly, beginning with January;Q.—P.=Quarterly, beginning with February. Q.—M.=Quarterly, beginning withMarch.

Report of the Sonth Carolina Railroad Company forthe year ending December 31, 1870.—The business of this

year will be found to show, as was the case also last year, a markediccrease, and to have attained its full average before the war.

It is thus stated :

Gross earnings of road $1,468,340 53Receipts from other sources 16,798 01

Total $1,485,138 54

And has been disposed of as follows

:

Road expensofcj including renewal of rails 916,095 82Interest—Foreign bonds 74,272 .35

Interest—First mortgage, domestic bonds 60. 865 00Interest—Domestic six and seven per cent bonds 142,621 50Interest—General 45.003 66

Total $1,238,858 33The net income of the year, after charging up the road expensesand foreign and domestic interest, is $216,280 21

Against this have been charged

Dividends 116,388 00

Leaving a balance of ;tl2y,twa 2i

which has been carried to the " reduction of debt, purchase of

locomotives, cars and real estate."

The Domestic Bond debt has been very largely increased by thetransfer to that account fi'om the Foreign Sterling debt of that

portion of the Sterling debt which was owned in this country.

The exchange was made under a provision ol the Mortgage Deed,

for seven per cent. Currency Bonds, payable here. It is needless

to add that a corresponding reduction of the " Sterling Debt"account is consequent upon this increase. The " Domestic Bonds"debt account has also been increased by issues in redemption of

the bills of the South Western Railroad Bank, settlement of past

due bonds, and purchases of property ; and in like manner hasoccurred the increase of bills payable.

During the year the exchange of First Mortgage'Bonds for the

past due sterling and other securities of the company, havingreached that point at which a compliance with the resolution

adopted by the holders on the other side, could properly be con-

sidered as accomplished, to wit :" That the exchange in the United

States must first be made, &c." Complete and very full evidences

of the fact of exchange here, and of cancellation also, were pre

pared and sent over to London, and as the company has done all

that was required, and perhaps more, we are at liberty to anticipate

that this protracted negotiation will meet with no further obstacle

to its completion. The amount now remaining unexchanged is

$1,492,015 64 ; the holders of which, to a greater amount than is

needed to cover the requirements of the Mortgage Deed, as the

Btockholdars have been already advised, have agreed to exchange,upon the terms and conditions j ust above referred to.

The earnings of the road have been

:

Owing to a change in the system of keeping the expense ac-

counts, the items cannot be tabulated for comparison, but the sumgiven above as the total for 1869 includes only such items as makeup the total expenses for 1870.

As indicated in their report of 1870, the Board commenced on

the 1st of August last the payment of small dividends out of theearnings of the six months, terminating on June 30th preceding

;

and they have since declared a further dividend from the earningsof the last six months, payable on February Ist. It is proposedto continue these payments, and with the present figures of incomethe Board regard the purpose quite practicable.Condensed balance sheet of the South Carolina Railroad Com-

470 THE CHEONICLE. [April 15, 1871.

^:)t Cammercial ®Iimc0.

COMMERCIAL EPITOME.Feidat Nioht, April 14, 1871.

There has been some improvement in trade the past week.

The demand for merchandize from Western and Southern

dealers has improved, and most articles of importation have

ruled steady, or have slightly improved, but on the great

agricultural staples of the country which depend upon an

export demand. Cotton, Breadstutfs, Provisions and Tobacco,

prices have declined, with unimportant exceptions, and the

decline has not in all cases led to an increased business.

Cotton has declined to 14|^o for Midland Upland. Flour

is easier at ^6 60@6 65 (or good shipping extras. Wheatcloses weak at $1 57^@l 60 for New Spring. Corn has

declined to V6@77c for prime mixed, leading to a large busi-

ness. Groceries show more activity in Coffees at the late

decline, while Su-ars have taken an upward tendency.

Tobacco shows a further decline in Kentucky Leaf, with a

dull market. Cutters and dealers have held off, and the sales

for the week have been only about 450 lihds mostly for

export to various parts. Quotations are reduced to 5^@6cfor lups, and 6^@9c for common to good leaf, but really

very little selling over 7^3. The business in Seed Leaf

Tobacco has nearly come to a standslill, and prices are quite

unsettled. Sales include 250 cases New Ohio on private terms,

100 cases Connecticut Wrappers, crop of 1869, at 45@52c;100 cases Old Wrappers, assorted lots, 35@60c. Spanish To-

bacco has been in fair request, with sales 500 bales Havana at

88c@$l 02, and 94 bales Old Yara, 3 cut, on private terms.

In most staples of Frovisions prices sbow n further decided

decline, but there is, at the close, some indications of a better

demand, both for export and home use, bsyers apparently

only waiting for prices to touch bottom. Mess Pork closed

at $19 25@$19 50; prime Mass, $17 75@$18 ;prime

Lard, Hie; Cumberland Bacon, Oa.; Beef also shows an

irregular decline. Cheese is lower, and shippers have been

able to buy the finer factories at 18c. Butter has given way

2@3c,

Wool has been more active, but is still rather quiet, await-

ing supplies fiom California.

Freights have been active. The charters to carry Petroleum

have amounted to about 60,000 bbls. from here and Phila-

delphia. The shipments of grain have also been large, and

rates have advanced to 7^@8J. by sail and steam to Liver-

pool ; 8d. by steam to Glasgow, and 8d, by sail to London

with charters to cash for orders at Ss. 6d.®53. 9d.

Rosin has been depressed by the scarcity and firmness of

ocean freights, and closes nominal at $2 60 for Strained.

Spirits Turpentine early in the week was weak under larger

receipts, but closes scarce, in good demand and very firm at

54Jc.

Metals have been quiet, excepting copper, which has sold

for speculation to the extent of 7,000,000 lbs at 21@21|efor Lake, closing unsettled. Petroleum has remained firm at

last weeks prices with a moderate business.

Hides have been fairly active at steady prices. Leather

quiet. In Tallow, the export movement has been large,

mainly at S'^o. In Oils, we notice the sale of 1,700 bbls

Crude Sperm for London at or about $1 30. Hops have

been firm, with a good demand for export. Whiskey has

been dull and unsettled.

Of East India goods the principal transactions have been «

line of Manila Hemp, 1,500 bales, at 9fc, gold, and several

parcels of Calcutta Linseed at $2 30@2 32^, gold, per 56

lbs cash and time.

Bxporta of Iieadlnv Artlclea from Ti»\r York.The following table, compiled from Custom House returns, show s

the exports of leading articles from the port of NewYork sinceJanuury 1, 1871, to all the principal foreign countries, and also thetotals for the last week, and sinco January 1. The last two linesshow total values, including the value of all other articles besidesthose mentioned in the table.

a week ago ; the grades below Low Middling remain unchanged.The cause of the dull feeling may be found in the continued largereceipts at our ports, with a l>elie( that the planting this yearis not to be materially decreased, while the disturbed condition ofFrance prevents any industrial recovery there. Under these dr-cnmstances holders begin to lose heart, fearing that the long ex-

pected upward movement in prices during the spring or earlysummer months may fail to be realized. This feeling is further

reflected in the business for forward delivery. Prices, on thebasis of Low Middling, closing to-night at i;i}c. for April ; 13 11-16

Weathkr Rkports by Teleoraph.—Unsettled, rainy weatherappears again to have visited a large section of the South. Fromdifferent points our telegrams state that the rains have been exces-slve, and are injuriously interfering with crop work. This la

reported to be the case at Memphis, where it ha'< rained two days,and also at Columbus and Augusta, whore ther<> has been thesame number of rainy days this week. At Macon it has rainedthree days and the weather in still unscttlixl, at Charleston oneday, and at Helma an unustially severe storm is renorted. On thoother hand our correspondent at Nashville says that planting la

progressing finely id that vicinity, and from Galveston our tele-

gram states that the plant is well up. The Thermometer liaa

averaged during the week at Charleston, 71 ; at Macnn. 74 : at

Colombus, G9 ; at Hobile, S8 ; at Solma, 07 ; at Ualveston, 70 ; andat Memphis, 03.

472 THE CHRONICLE. [April 15,1871/^

Thb Next Crop. There are some points established with

regard to the next crop which are very satisfactory.

1. There has certainly more corn and breadstuffs been planted

tlirougliout the South this year than last year. We hear this from

ainost all our correspondents, and think there can be no doubt of

it. It is not simply true of limited districts ut is nearly if not

quite universal.

2. The expense of putting the cotton crop into the ground has

been much less than last year. This has arisen from the necessi-

ties of the planter. He has had neither the money nor the credit

to do otherwise. As a consequence very much less has been spent

for fertilizers.

3. Bacon, ham, and all " hog products" are now from 3@4c per

pound lower than they were last year at this time, and the marketfor products of this description has at present a downward ten-

dency, whereas a year ago it had an upward tendency.

4. These three facts, together with the further one (which is

only true to a limited extent, however,) that better terms havebeen made with the freedmen, ensure, we think, a cheaper cotton

crop than any since the war. It is hardly necessary to say that" hog and hominy" enter very largely into the price of cotton,

and with these articles low the cost of the crop to the planter will

be very materially reduced.

Gunny Bass, Bagging, &c.—The market for cloth continues

very quiet, and no great improvement is looked for immediately.

The present prices here and in Calcutta show no profit to the

importer, and it is thought that tkereis likely to be a falling

off in the shipments on the other side. We quote East India 18(a

181c., and Domestic 10i(a30c. The only sale since our last is 100

bales Borneo to be delivered in New Orleans at 20c., currency.

Bags are excessively dull, and merely nominal in price ; we quote

10@15ic. Hemp has ruled quiet most of the time, and withliberal arrivals prices gave way a fraction, but close again steady,

with the advance fully recovered. Sales are l,.5O0 bales from store

at i)|c., gold, for Manila, and at the close to-day 500 bales X" Glenlyon" at lOc, 80 days. Jute has ruled very quiet. Wehave heard since the date of our last, though sold previously, of

1,000 bales on private terms. Jute Butts are in better supply,but rule pretty steady. The business is 350 bales at 4@4 l-16c.,

currency, 500 bales at 4c., currency, and 100 bales at same price,

closing steady.

BREADSTUPFS.Fbidat p. M., April 14. 1871.

The markets for Flonr and Qrain the past week have been

variable in tone, though the fluctuations in prices have been

inconsiderable. The close, however, is pretty tmiformly in favor

of buyers.

The receipts of flour lutve continued moderate, but there has

been little done (or Europe, and except for the West Indies the

export demand would be hardly worth referring to. The WestIndia orders have been mainly for grades worth [email protected], and haveiMjen partially filled witli Southern flours. The shipping extras

from Spring Wheat close somewhat nominal at [email protected], with

holders seeking bids. The trade demand has been fair, and the

Minnesota brands iiave brought very full prices. Rye flour hasdeclined 23c per bbl., and corn meal has rule<l very dull. Atto-day's market, good lines of shipping extras from Spring Wheataold at ^.65 delivered, but the bids were generally limited to

f6.60, which sellers were unwilling to accept.

The wheat market shows very little change. Receipts havebeen moderate, and foreign accounts h«vo reported an advance;

but a disposition to realize and the scarcity and higher rates of

ocean freights have operated to prevent any general advance,

although rather more money was paid in ipadal laatMieM. W«shall be in receipt of large sapplles by canal the flnt week la

May. To-day, under dull private advice* from Europe, the marketshowed weakness, loading to a moderate baslnna for export a^

|1 88 for new No. 2 spring In vtore, and $1 66 for amber winterand common white.

Corn has declined under lilieral reoaipta by rail, radueod bid*

fh>m shippers, and an advance in ocean freights. Bat at each

concession buyers took hold (reely. The sales of Western mlsadat 76@76c were very large, and to-day, with better aeconnta from

abroad, there were large sales, including yellow at 77|c, andmixed at 77c, but the close was about 76^. There are large

quantities of corn coming forward, bat the wants of buyers seemto l>e very great.

Rye has been dull and drooping. Barley has been closing out

freely at very full prices. Oats have l>een dull, and the late

advance has not been fully sustained. Prime mixed Western sold

in store to-day at 651c.

QROOERIES.Fbidat EvBirrao, April 14, 1871.

The calculations of the Trade have again been somewhat disap-

pointed, the volume of business proving smaller than usual for

the season, and indications of an improvement thus far amounting

to indications and nothing more. As a rule, however, we find

holders but little inclined to lose confidence in the future owing

to the almost certainty of exhausted supplies in the interior, the

near approach of the general resumption of canal navigation and

consequent lower freights, and the fact that man; goods are nowdown to about the cost of importation. Buyers are not expected

to depart from the caution so long shown, but their actual wants,

it is thought, must make a considerable impression upon the

accumulation. Our cereals must also begin soon to reach the sea-

board freely and the money realized on these is likely to be par-tially expended on foreign goods for return freights.

TEA.The Impression among lome of the leading brokers !g that Greens are a Uttle

more steady, that Oolongs have about tonched bottom, and that Japans—wellnot much is said in favor of the latter grade and they are somewhat doubtful.At the best, however, the market is only a nominal one and ejract quotationsare for the present difficult to decide upon. Jobbers have bought to someextent but without freedom and in no case beyond actual wants and businessgenerally has continued in the same slow state so long noticeable with little

prospect of Improvement until Congress adjourns, as there is plenty of evi-dence to indicata that country buyers are afraid of some change In the tariff

and are determined not to operate until they are sure of the rate of duty. Theamount of stock on sale continues fair and the assortment good. Sales of6,650 pckgs Green ; 1,300 pckgs.

COFFEE.The general position remains much the same as noted for a week or two

past, buyers coming forward only as forced to through actual necessity andbusiness moving in a sluggish, uncertain manner, with values naturally slackand frequently so very uncertain as to render quotations little better than use-less. The fear of some political trickery by which the duty will be changedIs uudoubtedly keeping a great many buyers back, and the impression in themarket is that no activity can be looked for until the adjournment of Con-gress. Some holders, however, look upon the prospects as rather brighter, andinsist that a quick call is now likely to spring up at any moment in view of theopening of inland navigation, and the lower rates of freights and the almostcertainty that the supplies of interior dealers are much reduced. Of Brazils

the accumulations have increased somewhat, and the call has been very light

notwithstanding a further modification of prices, and even at the decline thetone is somewhat slack, though importers assert that they are offering belowthe cost of goods, and cannot reasonably be expected to make further conces.

close we learn of sales at Boston of some 18,000 mats Java per Rocket. Thisreduces the stock in first hands throughout the country to 16,851 mats, the

cargo ef the Knight of Snowden, and infuses a much stronger tone to the mar-

SUGAR.The market for Raws has been somewhat unsettled and at^imes qnite doubt-

ful, but on the whole the tendency was rather toward a lower range and

values were somewhat modified. Refiners have found the sale of their pro-

duct fair and have bought stock in proportion thereto, but seldom if ever

exceed the wants of a lew days and were met by a more liberal offering.

Importers do not look upon the future of the market with any but the most

coufldent feelings, though for the present it is necessary to give way some-

what under the natural depression consequent upon accumulating stocks, more

liberal offerings from pier and comparatively full receipts present and pro-

spective. Nothingasyet fairly indicates the probable wants of the Interior,

but it is supposed that supplies must be pretty nearly exhausted and the first

call to restock likely large, buyers now holding off for an adjustment of Sum-

mer freight tariffs, and the full opening of na%igation. Operators are as usual

on a dull market somewhat apart in their views of grading, but the irregulari-

ties apparent on the first arrival of the new crop have nearly all disappeared-

Refined goods have met with »n unsettled demand, bnt large enough in the

aggregate to prevent the accumulation of any surplus stock and values were

pretty well sustained on most grades. Grocers have bought quite freely of the

common sorts for retail distribution In place of raws. The general market

closes with a pretty firm tone owing to indications of a quicker call from all

sources. Sales of 6,915 hhds. Cuba ; l,185|hhds. Porto Rico ; 800 hhds. Deme-

without much difllculty. Still no advance Is reported, as buyers do not evince

enough anxiety to warrant the asking of higher figures. In the vray of in-

voices the movement has been quite moderate, the distributors in a small way

having already become fairly stocked, and advices from abroad, though en-

couraging, failing to stimulate any speculative feeling. At the outports there

has been a little doing, the leading sales embracing about 1,000 picul* Singa-

There Is a little more doing in Foreign Dried than at the date af our last

report. The jobbing trade, however, is light, and dealer* are not willing to

stock up, and bring only In a small way, as their want* require. Importer*

generally look for a revival of trade and an advance In prices, but still to make•ale* at preaent, are obliged to accept buyers prices for most articles. Thepurchasing of Layer Raisins by an importer have anparently subsided andthey are very dull jobbing at $2 75. Prune* are very heavy and favor the

buyer. Currants sell slowly.'at the late decline. Sardines move very slowly at

prices showing no quotable decline but which are not very firm. Citron is

firm and in fair demand. Nuts of all kinds are rather qnlet but rule at about

former prices. Fire Crackers have moved quite freely but close rather easier.

Foreign Green box fmit sell fairly and although in good supply rules steady

In price. At the auction sale to-day Messina Oranges sold at $3 0C®3 95 per

box ; do. Lemons, (4 ; Palermo Oranges tS SO(^tS 25; per box, and do.

Lemons {3 00@4 95 per box. West India Orange* have nearly all come in for

demand at t3S per,thousand for Baracoa and (501^55 for Carthagena. PineApples are beginning to come In more freely ; they sold at tl5 perbondred for Nassau Red.

Domestic Dried have ruled very quiet for all descriptions. Apples are heavyand although there have been no sales of moment, at a decline to sell at all

freely lower prices must be accepted. Blackberries are not plenty but sell onlyIn small lots at about former prices. Cherries and Plums are qnlet Peanutshardly so firm but a little more active.

Domestic Orcen are In small demand for apples fbr city use and for the bestkind full former prices are realized. Cranberries are dull and ikver th* buyeralthough at present are very cheap ; the supply Is large.

476 THte CHRONICLE. [April 15, 1871.

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.Fridat, p.m., April 14, 1871.

There has been a fair jobbing trade done during the past week>

the demand being chiefly from Western and near by dealers whowere making their first purchases or replenishing stocks laid in

earlier in the season. The Southern trade has been light, though

there has been some demand from dealers in that section for

assorted lots, and, as compared with the West and localities near

this city, the retail distribution in the South appears to be active.

The demand from consumers in the interior generally is reported

backward, and dealers are deferring their purchases in conse-

quence, but we note a moderate improvement in the demand from

small dealers since our last report, and the smaller jobbing houses

are doing a better trade. There have been no important changesin the market since our last review, and the general list of quo.

tations is well maintained, though jobbers are said to be cutting

agent's prices on many fabrics, as an inducement to buyers. Thesales from first-hands, during the week, have not been large

excepting of staple cotton goods, which are in good request and

are, in some instances, sold to arrive.

Domestic Cotton Goods.—Fine grades of brovm and bleached

goods continue in fair request and the most favorably knownmakes are sold close to the production. Medium grades are, also,

lairly active, while low grades are slow of sale but are firmer than

at the time of our last report. Prices are generally steady on the

best grades, though some of the heaviest makes of bleached

cottons are said to be quiet and not very firmly sustained. Prints

are in good request and stocks are light, which, with the advancein cloths gives firmness to prices, and on two or three grades anadvance has occurred, as will be seen by our quotations. Cambricsare also very firm and the agents for goods which are sold to

arrive contemplate an advance on rolled. Colored Cottons are

selling more freely at the revised quotations and prices are steady.

Domestic Woolen Goods.—Light weight cloths have not sold

very freely first hands, but the jobbing demand has been rather

more liberal and aggregates a fair amount. Castors are selling

freely to jobber* and clothiers, at prices about 25c per yard higher

than were current last fall. Fine light weight Cassimeres are in

good demand and agents are well sold out. Medium and low

grades are jobbing to some extent, but the demand is chiefly from

small buyers. In heavy weights these grades are selling freely to

clothing manufacturers and jobbers. Light woolen fabrics are in

fair demand for current distribution and no noteworthy changes

are reported in any line. Shawls sell freely, and the best styles

are well sold out, several brands being sold to arrive at an advance

of 25c on the opening prices.

Foreign Goods.—The trade in foreign fabrics has been irregular

but aggregates a fair amount both with importers and jobbers.

Dress Goods have sold fairly to the retail trade and sales are

effected from first hands of such amounts as are required to

maintain jobbers' assortments. Linens are jobbing well but are

quiet in first hands. Silks continue in good request, though gros

grains are not selling so freely as was noted a few weeks since-

There is a good trade in progress in Japanese silks at prices

considerably above those current at the opening of the season,

and holders are very firm on the comparatively light stocks

remaining in the market. Millinery silks and ribbons are in better

demand, and sales through the auction houses are readily effected

at advancing prices on all desirable numbers.

The exports of dry goods for the past week, and since January

1, 1871, and the total for the same time in several previous years
