judicious attempts to amend the statutes
permitting them. But as the law stands, this abuse is sanc¬
tioned, and the reserves are less elastic and less available
than is essential (o a thoroughly efficient financial machinery.
Probably our recent monetary spasm was rendered more
mischievous by this want of elasticity in the reserves in our
city banks. For it is believed that only one fifth of these
reserves
during the last month were in available greenbacks,
while the other four fifths were composed of certificates, com¬
pounds and specie, and were thus unavailable or at any rate

elsewhere, shows that the increase is from $25,585,000 1st
March, to $20,290,000 April 1st. There is also another
cause

for the limited extent of this movement.

Several of

the

banks, during the stringency, presented their certificates

Treasurer did his best to accommodate the applicants for

freely dis
cussed about the debt statement. Mr. McCulloch is supposed
to have sold 10 or 11 millions of gold.
The exact amount
is only a matter of conjecture.
From the way in which the
accounts are made up it is impossible to get at the precise
figures. A good deal of this gold was put on the market
while the money market was tightening, but Mr, McCulloch
claims that he was obliged to resort to this course as his
payments were heavy, his balance small, and his receipts
falling off. We may examine this hereafter. It is enough
now to note the fact that the gold balance belonging to the
Government is down to about the same point, 81 millions,
at which it stood last month.
The currency balance, how¬
ever, has been the
most anxiously watched.
It was
reported to have declined, but has been actually increased
since 1st March by about a million and a half.

gradual revival of the trade of England and of the
Trade is more active at Manchester >

Continental States.

European orders tor yarns and goods are increasing; and
bankers appear disposed to encourage an extension of
commercial operations.
The apprehensions of a Spring war
in Europe have subsided ; and a movement has been started
for securing a general disarmament of the great powers
which gives some promise of success.
The upward move¬
ment in the rates of discount in the open market at London,
the increased applications for discount at the Bank of Eng¬
land, and the reduction of 17,000,000 francs in the specie of
the Bank of France within one week, very distinctly indi¬
cate an enlarged demand lor money tor trading operations.
These facts confirm the impression that, at last, Europe is
about to witness a reaction from the protracted depression
of trade.
To this extent, therefore, the probabilities are
clearly in favor of a healthy demand for cotton manufactures.
And yet.tliis demand must necessarily be held in check
somewhat by the increased price.
We cannot anticipate
that the consumption will be as free with cotton at 12d.@I3d.
as it would be oil the basis of 7d.@8d.
If the large pur¬
chases on the part of spinners during the past few weeks
mve been made to fill contracts for goods entered into while
cotton was at the lower figures, is it not well for those deal¬
ing in this staple to consider whether new contracts to the
same extent will now be put out at the higher rates.
There
certainly is a point in the upward scale of prices at which
consumption will be checked, and even now in the United
States the dry goods business has suffered greatly by the
rise in the raw material, manufacturers not being able to
dispose of their present stocks at prices which will enable
them t j replace them.

The increase of

business, as shown above, is not so much
evidence of increased production as of an addition through
the Florida branch to the area of country tributary to the road#
The trade with Florida has been gained with much labor, and
only became fairly established in the Fall season of 1867.
The competition with the route from New Orleans via St.
Mark’s for the trade in provisions has, however, been successfull, as is evidenced from the quantities of corn, bacon, pork,
sugar, tobacco, lard, flour, &c., shipped from Savannah for the
Florida Branch. These were the staple articles of the New
Orleans trade. A large share of the cotton trade of St.
Mark’s has also been diverted .to the Branch road, and finds
a market in
Savannah, whence it is shipped to New York,
Philadelphia and Baltimore by the regular steamship lines
operating between those marts and Savannah. The develop¬

The company have now determined to issue
bonds to cover the several division mortgages.

The l^onds in
question bear date July 1, 1867, are payable in 30 years, and
bear interest at the rate of 7 per cent, per annum, free of gov¬
ernment tax.
Principal and interest are payable at New
York or Savannah, at the option of the holder. Both are
secured by the whole railroad property, including the rolling
stock of the company, and present a security far superior to
that of the bonds for which they will be exchanged.
The

scarcely alluded to, and as the fear of such an event was considered to
have much influence in producing inactivity in trade,it might have been,
thought that as the public mind is now at rest in respect to Continental
politics, a slight impetus might have been given to business. But no
such advantage has been gained. For 4he most part, traders are con¬
fining their operations to those of actual necessity, and, in consequence
the dea’ings in produce and manufactures, from day to day, are of a
strictly legitimate character. Notwithstanding, however, the quietness
of business, it is not improbable that the net profits of the mercantile
community equal those when business was of a more extensive char¬
acter, inasmuch as merchants now operate with so much caution that
their loss cannot be of any important magnitude.
They seem to be
t ansacting busiuess when they are certain that it will yield them
only
a fair return of profit, while they appear to show great indisposition to

secured, there will be no fine old English wheat to mix with it. With
out doubt, however, we shall receive, in due course,
large supplies of
produce from abroad, and as we now import so largely from California,
it is probable that our wants will be amply supplied.
The wheat trade has been very quiet, but, owing to the
poorness of
our own
crop, the limited supplies sent to market, and to the continued
purchases off the coast on account of French and other foreign millers,
prices have ruled firm, and good and fine qualities of produce have
commanded previous rates. It is ascertained that about 813 cargoes
of wheat are now on passage to this
country from Mediterranean, Black
Sea and Danubian ports, as well as from San Francisco. Many more
are also on
passage, the particulars of which are not yet known, but it
is calculated that the supply to
be received during the next three
months will be about 1,500,000 quarters. Shortly after the c mmence
ment of the year the supply afloat was about 2,000,000
quarters, so
that there has been a diminution since then of 500,000 quarters. The
supply is about sufficient to check any rise in prices; but if, as i3 not
unlikely, the French demand should increase the nearer we approach
the close of the season, the wheat trade may be characterised by much
firmness. Annexed are the particulars of imports and exports since
the 1st of

It is clear that the Bank of

England mu-t accommodate itself to the

few telegrams have been received from India this week.
The demand for gold for export is so trifling as scarcely to demand
attention. It is believed that of the supplies held here, the greater
proportion will be shortly sent to the Bank, and as about £1,000,000 is
known to be on passage to this country from Australia an
important
accumulation of gold at the Bank is likely to take place.
Silver is decidedly weaker, owing to the cessation of the demand for
India, and prices have declined fully ^d. per ounce. The total quantity
shipped to India is about £300,000, but, during the last few days, there
have been no purchases on Indian account. Fine bars have
lately be n
sold at 60^1.; and Mexican dollars are worth about 59d.
per ounce.
In the Stock Exchange, much quietness has continued to
prevail.
Both in home and foreign securities, the investing public have
operated
to a very limited extent, while the speculative class has
materially
curtailed its operations.
As, however, foreign securities yield a good,
rate of interest, the market for them has been firm.
Egyptian and
Spanish are not, however, in any great favor. Consols have not mate¬
rially altered in price, but, in the absence of active business, the tend¬
ency has been rather downward.

In the

manufacturing districts a moderate degree of activity has pre¬
vailed, and a fair amount of business has been transacted. Cotton yarn
is somewhat firmer in price, and most other articles have changed hands
at full quotations.
The public sales of colonial wool were brought to
a close last
night. The total quantity of wool disposed of was 122,192
bales, of which it is estimated that Continental buyers purchased from
60,000 to 65,000 bales. The great demand from the Continent, conse
quent, in Some measure, upon the diminished receipts at Cootinenta
ports from the River Plata was the chief cause of the rise of -£d. to Id
per lb. which took place in prices? Our own manufacturers, however
operated with considerable caution, and as it is believed that the supply
for the May-June sales will be very large, it is' not considered certain
that the advance which has recently been established will be
supported

Owing to the quarterly payments money has been in active demand,
but it is remarked that the applications of a strictly commercial
character are beneath the average. The activity of the money market
during the last few days has led many to suppose that a rise in the
bank minimum is not improbable. But few capitalists, however, are
of the opinion that the rates will be higher at present. During the last
two weeks money has been in active request, partly to meet the
pay¬
ment of taxes at the close of the year, and as a large sum of
money
has been collected to pay the dividends on Government securities,
the amount locked up at the Bank of England is considerable. In the
course of about ten days that
money will be in the hands of the public}
and* as most of the extraordinary payments will have been neffet by tha^
time, an impression prevails that accommodation in the open market
will be obtainable at a rate not exceeding If per cent. So far as can
be noticed at present, trade does not seem to have
improved to an
extent which will have the effect of absorbing our abundant
supplies of
money; in addition to which there is,as a preventive to dearer money
the abundance of loanable capital at Paris, and the low rates of
discount
there current. The slight rate of about f per cent, which has taken
place on this side has already had the effect of attracting supplies of
money hither and hence, should an advance to
per cent, take place
in the bank minimum the increase in the supplies in the discount mar
ket would be




so

..increase in the receipts for
bales this year compared with the same
period of 1867. Our telegraphic advices to-night indicate
more liberal arrivals, so that our total for next week will prob¬
ably be several thousand bales in excess of that given to-day.
This slight revival in the receipts is the result of the high
prices, as the planters, under this stimulus, are hurrying to
market the small amount of the crop still left in their hands.
In the exports there is, this week, a small increase, the total
at all the ports reaching 61,048 bales, against 54,423 bales
last week, and 60,566 bales the previous week.

animation.
An increase in the receipts at the ports the early

unfavorable Liverpool advices, resulted in not only checking
decrease, the total at all the ports reaching only 35,453 bales the advance which culminated on Saturday, but in leaving
(against 42,439 bales last week, 58,055 bales the previous the market on Tuesday about l£ cent, lower. The exceedingly

gate receipts since Sept. 1, 1867, 1,964,384 bales, against operations of speculators, who have appeared disposed to act
more with reference to the daily fluctuations than upon

1,588,152 bales for the same period in 1866-7, being an ex¬ eral views
