But the effects of this moment
are sufficiently
obvious. There is, however, another point to
which it is of more importance to direct attention.
We refer
to the expected fall in prices.
The conviction prevails widely
that as gold has fallen so all other commodities ought to fall
too.
It is notorious that with the exception of a few articles,
there has prevailed and (here does still prevail an inflated
scale of prices which pervades almost all descriptions of
goods, and exaggerates greatly the cost of the necessaries of
life. These high prices are partly the result of speculation
and proceed partly from causse less apparent.
Why then
should there be a fall in prices when the money market is
favorable to speculative combinations for a further advance,
is a question which is well worthy of thoughtful considera¬

be expected to

well worthy to be noted in our
money market just now. The
first is the limited volume of business which is
doing in
almost all departments of
legitimate industrial activity.
Less money is wanted than usual, and the
pressure upon tin*
monetary machinery of the country being less, a smaller
amount of
money suffices to meet all demands. In this city
the return of funds from the interior has
produced a sudden
relaxation of -the financial spasm ; and this has occurred
sooner than in former
years.
This dulness and arrest ('1
business in comrnsrcial circles is reflected in Wall street
where with the exception of a few
clique movements in
stocks and an active business in Government bonds,

As to the low

price of gold, it is due in part to the derange^
merit of the foreign exchanges, and there is no doubt whatever
that the larro shipments of our bonds to Europe contributes to
some extent to bring on and to increase this derangement. It
is not a little remarkable that (he very men who predicta fall
in (he prices of general commodities are strongly of opinion
that our government bonds will go higher.

any positive opinion on this subject, we content ourselves with

The affronted horror

the Confederate bondholders suppose
included in its provisions. Air. Sumner
cited frem an English journal a statement that the claims of
these bondholders were founded on immense quantities of
cotton worth at the time of its seizure forty cents a pound,
-which being in the legal possession of the bondholders were
to be the subject of claims just as other
destroyed property
before the joint commission. It appears that the Confederate
loan went up from 0 to 10 on this anticipation as soon
as the
treaty was signed. Air. Sumner’s speech was devoted
to an
elaborate exposition of this political aspect of the
Alabama quairel. He showed that the treaty as it stood, left |
a
quarrel between the two nations which would rankle in the
hearts of both and might hereafter
produce mischievous
effects.
Like a skillful surgeon he probed the wound to the
bottom, that it might be treated thoroughly and healed up

presented in Air. Sumner’s elaborate speech which was pub¬
5
lished on Thursday. That these reasons were convincing is
sufficiently evident from the fact that with a single exceptionj
every vote of the Senate, without regard to political party
was
recorded against the treaty. We need not advert to
these arguments in detail. The main principle involved int
them all is tliir, that the treaty regarded the outrages of the
Southern cruisers as directed against the individual citizens of
p
this country,and left out of sight the paramount question that
these outrages were national and political as well as individual
From beginning [io end this treaty aims at a settlement
of individual claims on both sides, the one being a set off
against the other. This great national difficulty is thus
made to shrink from its due proportions into a petty insigni¬
ficant quarrel between a few scores of private citizens in

then, for safety, the preference was, as a matter of course, always
given to neutral vessels, and American ships could rarely find employ mert on these hard terms, as long ns there were good neutral ships in
the freight markets.
Under such circumstances there was no course
left for cur merchant ship-owners but to take such profitless business as

Air. Sumner

proceeded to chow that “ beyond the actual
loss to the national tonage, there was a further loss in the arrest of the natural increase of our shipping industry, w?hich
an intelligent statistician put3 at ‘five per cent annually,
making in 1S06 a total loss on this account of 1,384,958
tons, which must be added to 1,229,035 tons actually lost.
The same statistician, after estimating the value of a ton at
$40, gold, and making allowance for old and new ships, puts
the sum total of national loss on this account at $110,000,000.” By the payment by England of this sum Air. Sumner
seems to thhk that satifaction will
bo made for the injuries
which the British pirates inflicted on our private citizens.
Secondly, there remains the political reparation which can
be made by no payment of dollars and cents, but must be
provided for by treaty stipulations which shall prohibit future
piratical expeditions and modify the existing code of acknowl¬
edged international law between the two countries. We have
often discussed these principles with Great Biitain.
And it
will be a happy result of these tedious and protracted nego¬
tiations if we can settle and fix on more enlightened princi¬
ples the code of international law regulating the duties and
rights of neutrals and the claims and obligations of belliger¬
ents.
Air. Sumner quotes freely from various authorities on
international law.

But it is evident that these treatises on

jurisprudence have been sadly neglected and
their teachings defied in the treaties on which rests the bind¬
ing force of positive international law, as accepted and enfoiced among nations in modem warfare.

RAILROAD EARNINGS FOR MARCH.
The
our

spring

opens with unusual indications of prosperity
railroad interest. Large crops throughout the

to

West, and
the growing development of the country
through which the
roads pass, have resulted in
decidedly increased earnings, the
total lor March of the
companies we give below being
$1,196,171 in excess of the same month last year, and
$1,130,728 in excess of March, 1867. This improvement in
the earnings, together with the
anticipation of increased trade
on the
opening of the Pacific Railroad are the basis for the
upward movement in prices which has developed so strongly
of late. What effect the lower
quotations for Breadstuff*
will have on the traffic
receipts cannot of course be deter¬
mined. It is claimed, however, by some who are usually




good judges, that the earnings are likely to show a less per¬
centage of increase during the remainder of the year, farmers,
with the present
high freights and low prices, finding it more
prolitahle to feed out their grain and send it to market in beef
and pork. This
feeling may increase, and of necessity result
in lower freights, which would
again affect unfavorably the
earnings. But, on the other hand, the West is not in the
same
condition it was a few years since. Houses and even
villages have sprung up all along the routes of these roads, so
that the local business has
multiplied many times and is des¬
tined to show a rapid development in the future.
Besides,
after a time we may rightly expect a large movement from
the Pacilic, which will impart more or less
activity to all con¬
necting lines. Some anticipate this as the immediate result

that is, that the weather during March this season has been

obtained by the public cn bills will be returned as soon as the divi¬

cheater seems doomed to be lost in Liverpool from the increased ccst of
the raw material.
We do not think the trade genet ally have done
much to retrieve the lost margin between cotton and cloth, and lie
only gain for the month appears to be that the loss on working is less
disastrous than it was, and to that extent the severe pressure cn the
copf-umpticn is abated, but we do not as yet hear of any increase of
consumption, though it seems not unlikely that for some time the ten
dency will be in that direction ; as we have often observed, nothing
will keep down consumption except eetere less in working, and when
the loss bee unes moderate, or approaches the point where it is the
same to the spinner whether his mill is opened or cioeed there is sure
to be an increase of working.
The prospects of our market—it must be a lowed by all—have under-

there is a disposition to do business, and perhaps the predominant
bent is toward buying rather than selling. Some large promises
are made in behalf of a few leading companies, which the street to,

New York Central has fluctuated between 162£ and 165£, in sym¬

prices of leading staples seem to depend upon the export

Groceries have been dull and
drooping, except for Coffee, which has been freely shipped to

There lias also been a fair

export. Beef shows no change. Tiiere have been some

Hides and Leather have become dull and prices rather
weak.
Skins have been more active at rather easier prices.
East India Goods rule very firm, but without much doing.
The probabilities are discussed a little with reference to the

price of Saltpetre.
Of Metals, Copper and Iron show an improved position,
g a
and Tin, Lead, and Spelter are firm, with a moderate demand.
£
Naval Stores have shown a good degree of activity for
H S
Rosin, Spirits Turpentine, and Tar; prices have shown
slight fluctuations, but close firm.
The trade in this market 9

in Naval Stores has been much larger this season than at any
9 5 coother period since the war.
Petroleum has been dull and drooping, but at the decline
closes more active, with a slight upward tendency.
Oils
remain quiet.
Fruit and Fish are more steady. Hops rule firm; the
receipts have fallen off and the exports continue liberal with
a

good brewing demand. Hay also firm. Tallow has shown
considerable movement, part for export, at steady prices.

Whiskey is weakened, by a pressure to sell, from store.
Building Materials are unchanged.
Wool is weak and unsettled; lower prices would be

GROCERIES.
Friday Evening, April 16, 1869.

The

prevailing stringency of the money market, so severely
felt in many of the markets, has not borne, with
any severe de¬
gree of pressure, upon those for groceries. There has been a gen¬
erally active business in all, and, in some of them, at enhanced
values.
Sugars close firm at improved prices.
Molasses is
firm for the better grades, and ordinarily active.
Coffee has
been sold extensively for export, and under this demand has
advanced ^c. throughout. Teas are active, at prices which
show now especial variation.
Imports of the week have been small in most articles. Only
two cargoes of Rio Coffee are reported since our last, one
cargo of black tea, and smaller quantities of Sugar and
Molasses than last week, except Cuba box sugar, ot which
the imports are large.
Advices from China to February 22
report the total shipments to that date to the United States
as 3b,145,882 lbs.
against 30,511,046, for the same period
last year.
The imports at New York for the week, and at
the several ports since January 1, are given below under the
respective heads. The totals are as follows :

of the money market, and the

discourage speculation.
Wheat was greatly

adverse reports from
Liverpool, and No. 2 Spring declined to

done for export, and the close is
