confine
his
bly
gold sales to such an amount as will represent
the three per cent certificates offered for
redemption.
Many persons have supposed that at present the Secretary
of the Treasury can
buy gold bonds in the market just as
formerly. But it has been pointed out that this is a mistake.
The Public Credit Bill prohibits the
purchase of the funded
debt

and declares that “

of the said

interest-bearing
obligations not already due shall be redeemed or paid before
maturity, unless at such times United States notes shall be
convertible into coin at the option of the holder, or unless at
such time bonds of the United States
bearing a lower rate of
interest than the bonds to be redeemed can be sold at
par in
coin.” We presume it is in consequence of this
prohibition
to buy up the funded debt, that Mr. Boutwell offers to take
pay for his gold in three per cent certificates if required. For
these certificates are part of the unfunded or
floating debt of

productive industry, and although we have no dis¬
tress, no overwhelming mercantile or industrial depression, no
interruption of the buildings and other improvements which
are
rising up to testify to the wealth and power and progress
of the nation, still there has been the usual
monetary trouble,
sensitiveness, stringency and spasm which always mark in any
great commercial country the occurence of too rapid a con¬
version of floating capital into fixed
capital. Now the ex¬
tent of these changes will be seen when the bank statements
are published.
And it is one of the chief advantages of
these frequent reports that they enable us to obtain an accu¬

the whole banking system of the United
States, and to see in one view the comparative force and
direction of the various monetary movements which

1 From our own Correspondent.J

London, Saturday, April 10, 1869.
A very

slack week, both commercially and financially, has been
by an unexpectedly favorable budget. Mr. Lowe, the present
Chancellor of the Exchequer, delivered the financial statement in the
House of Commons on Thursday evening, and there is no doubt that
the country has been taken by surprise in consequence of
the proposals
he has made and the changes he advocates.
Mr. Hunt, the Tory Chan¬
cellor, estimated that the revenue for the year just expired would
amount to £78,150,000: the actual receipts are £568,000 beneath that
sum ; but, on the other hand,
setting aside the Abyssinian expedition^
the actual expenditure has fallen short
by about half a million of the
amount estimated by the late government.
Respecting the future, Mr.
Lowe estimates the expenditure, exclusive of that incurred in
Abyssi
nia, and of which a large amount has yet to be paid, at £68,223,000
which is a decrease of about £2,250,000 on that of the
previous finan¬
cial year.
This important reduction is due to the great diminution of
expenditure in the army and navy ; but the Tories contend that they
left those services in such a state of effi iency that had
they been in
office themselves, they could and would have
proposed similar altera¬
relieved

tions.

The

revenue

derived from this tax is about £900,"00 ; but the
government, with
view no doubt of obtaining
popularity, and also the

support of those

recently admitted to the franchise, have proposed it9 repeal, and conse
quently cereals will soon be admitted to our ports without any cherge
whatever with regard to duty. Mr. Lowe’s
argument is, that by
removing this little obstruction England will become a great entrepot
for foreign produce, and that in times of deficient harvests in
Europe
Continental buyers will make large purchases of
foreign wheat at our
outports. In this, however, Mr. Lowe will probably find himself mis¬
taken, and it is quite clear that he does not wholly understand the
peculiarities of the trade. Without doubt the “ floating cargo ” trade
will continue quite as active when the duty is taken off as it is now.
Wheat arriving at “ ports of call,” and ordered to the
Continent, actu¬
ally pays no duty; am it is quite improbable that a system so con¬
venient and simple will be done away with.
When wheat is dearer on

for 1869-70 he estimated at £72,855,000.

The

here, which is not often, it cannot be thought
likely that foreign wheat would be landed here and reshipped, for car¬
goes are to be had off the coast every day, and the requirements of
foreign buyers can soon be supplied. The Gredi merchants, who are
chiefly engaged in the “floating cargo” trade, are wide enough awake
not to have inaugurated this complete system many
years ago.
For
many years past grain-laden vessels from the Danube, the Black Sea
aod the Mediterranean call at Cork or Falmouth for orders, and instruc¬
tions are forwarded by telegraph to repair to London,
Liverpool,
Gloucester or elsewhere, according to the 9tate of the trade or the dis¬
cretion of the

owner.

As indicative of the

times, it may be noticed that the articles which
chiefly led to a diminished revenue iu the past financial year were
those consumed by the poorer classes.
The bad state of trade and the
reduced wages earned by the working classes Lave
evidently affected
the revenue ; but the wealthier classes seem to have beeD as luxurious
in their habits

as

Budget has naturally been beneficial throughout the
country, and it is to be hoped that some lasting good may result from
diminished taxation.
Business requires something to urge it
along, for
it probably has never been so slack as during the present week. In
fact, trade has been almost featureless. Further failures have taken
place in Manchester, and consequently much caution prevails in com¬
mercial circles, not only throughout Lancashire but also
throughout the
United Kingdom. There is no activity anywhere, except in the trade
for railway iron, iu which a good business is still doing. All other
departments of trade, however, are quiet in the extreme, the business
doing being almost entirely of a hand-to-mouth character. A com¬
mercial report from South Wales states that the ironmasters of that dis¬
trict are unquestionably better placed for orders than those in
any
other locality ; and although reports which have lately come to hand
from other districts state that order?} are being received only sufficient
to keep going from hand to mouth, in this district the rail mills are
kept regularly running, and will continue so if no more orders are
received for two

tax-payers to expect that the Chancellor would
demand 7d. in the pound in the current financial year, instead of 6d.
as at
present. It is, therefore, an agreeable surprise to find that not
poly is no increased burden proposed, but, on the other band, it is sug¬

heretofore.

The demand for Russia

engagements from that country. Considerable activity is being
evinced at the local ports in the shipments of rails to the United
States, and at one of the local ports alone there are nearly twenty vee«
the

8ela entered outwarda to take in rails for

New York.

The iron now

being sent to the Continental markets consists chiefly of bars, for which
there is a good demand at advanced rates.
Ihe wheat trade has been very dull this week, and a decline of Is.
to 2a. per quarter has taken place in tli« value of English and of Is. in
foreign, excepting Rostock descriptions. Spring corn of all descrip
tions has been steady in price. The crop accounts are more favorable*
the weather having become much more genial.

much distrust prevails. Liverpool and Manchester paper

Farther failures have taken
consequence,

no means readily negotiable. A report from Manchester states :
The same quiet feeling which prevailed in this market last
has continued. On Saturday rather a better tone was manifest, but it
did not amount to anything and led to no business of consequence.
Prices continue tolerably steady, owing to the lightness of stocks ; but
the extreme quotations current last Tuesday have not been realized,
and producers have modified them since that day.
Buyers have now
a better choice, and could tuy to-day on rather more favorable terms.
The advices from distant markets scarcely warrant buyers shipping

goods, which require months to elapse before they reach their destina¬
tion, at prices higher than those which they have previously paid, as
the circumstances which have lately been influencing prices upwards
may have altered before the shipments can be disposed of.
Already
reports of a very large increase in the area of cotton planting are pub
lished, but all experience proves that early prognostications about the
ultimate extent of a crop of cotton which is scarcely planted are good
for nothing.
One thing, however, is certain, that many traders have
got very little money to lose, and are not disposed to r.sk what they
Although the upward tendency of prices has been stopped, satisfac¬
tion is generally felt that such is the case, as a further rise would only
lead to an increased production of goods and larger consumption of
cotton, an! bring about speculation, with a reaction afterwards, which
would make things even worse than they are at present. The ship¬
ments of cotton to this country are increasing, and, by and by, arri¬
vals in the Mersey will be more abundant and the supply better.
This, if it does not bring down prices may at all events prevent their
rising, and steady markets, without fluctuations, are best for all parties.
As was fully expected, it is impossible to say, with trade so very
slack, to maintain a four per cent rate of discount. The directors of
the Bank have made no change this week ; but as in the open maiket
the best descriptions of short-dated paper are taken at
per cent,
the applications at the Bank have been few.
The dividends have
been paid this week, and consequently ths supply of money ha9 been
largely increased. It is maintained by some that the Bank will not
retrace the step they recently took in advancing to four per cent, and
will not even fall back to 3£ per cent; but it is quite clear that unless
they take bills at a cheaper rate, they cannot secure much of the dis¬
count business, and consequently they will have to be content with
greatly diminished profits. The following are the quotations for

Burleigh’s Patent Pneumatic Rock Drill.—This invention ha

a new era in the drilling of rock in tunnels or
excavations, and is entitled to be considered one of the great
$92,908,344 labor saving machines of the times. Testimony as to its efficiency and
$7,558,167
85,350,177

apparently inaugurated

other

ration for the return,

superiority to other processes, is given by the superintendent of the
Boosac Tunnel, by the contractors of the Illinois and Michigan Canal*
an! other parties who have tested it thoroughly, and can speak of it in
high terms. The drills are also in use in the upper part of New York
city, where they can be seen. Mr. Daly, of 43 New street, who is
agent for the sale of these machines in New York, states, in a circular,
that about one hundred of the Burleigh Drills are now in use in vari
oils
parts of the United States. They are used in heavy open cut
work, in canals and railroads, in tunneling, shaft sinking, adoit driving,
quarries, and in fact all classes of work where drilling is to be done,
and in each case showing about the same amount of saving.
We
build five sizes, drilling from 1^ to
inch holes, and feeding from
thirty inches to eighty four inches without change < f drill points. The
size we recommend for gene»al mining is the tunnel size, its weight
being about four hundred pounds ; it drills 1£ to
inch hole, and feeds
thirty-six inches without change of drill points. The power required
direct from a steam boiler is about three hotse for each dri.l, as pteam is
rated.
The drill is convenient, easily handled, and not liable to get out
of repair, and is. in every respect, the meet practical drilling1 machine
ever invented.
It will drill horn two to six inches per minute, cccording
to the hardness of the rock. The drill-point^ used w ith the machine will
make ten times greater advance at each sharpening than when used in
the ordinary manner, by hanc and sledge.
This is proved by records
kept at the Hooeac Tunnel, where these machines have been in constan
use, night and day, for the last two years.
This machine is so coretructcd that the piston bar is the only part of the machine which
receives the ehoefe resulting from the blow upon the rock.
An adver¬
tisement will be found on another page, and full particulars will be
given by Mr. Daly at 43 New street.

The

considerable gain

in the surplus over
reserve and in
legal tenders, together with a decrease in loans;
which reflected the return of currency from the interior. This
week the movement at the banks has been similar, as will probably
a

in to-morrow’s statement.

Currency is coming here from

Cincinnati, Chicago, Louisville, Detroit, and the interior of ibis
State; and although the amounts in detail are light, yet in the
aggregate they are quite considerable. A slight attempt was made
yesterday to create a flurry by “locking up” currency; buttle
strength of the market was found to be beyond the control of a
small combination, and the scheme appears to have been abandoned
almost at its inception, but not before it had caused some special
activity in loans. The time is near for the forwarding grain in
connection with the opening of navigation ; and some apprehension
exists that money may then be called to the West. It must be
remembered, however, that the banks of this city are carrying a
large amount of the grain held at the lake ports at higher prices
than are now current, and that a large amount of Western indebt¬
edness to the East for merchandise has betn postponed for settle¬
ment until produce can be forwarded.
For these reasons, it does
not seem likely that any considerable demand will be made upon us

bankers appear to have unloaded a
good portion of the heavy amount of stock they have been carry¬
ing, and are now less sanguine as to the course of the foreign
markets. The investment movement is quite limited, but showt a
preponderance of sellers. The rise in the go'd premium has been
an element of firmness, which, however, has been partially neutral¬
ized by the dec ine in bonds abroad. The action of the S.na'e
upon the Alabama negotiations and the reports of danger of the
disturbance of our relations with Spain on the Cuba question, are
understood among the foreign houses to have had a s'ightly unfa¬
vorable effect upon the price of bonds at London. Tue market
closes quiet, but steady.

Miscellaneous Stocks.—In the stock market

free speculative movement, predominantly in
higher prices. Yesterday, however, a clique interested
largely in a few leading stocks undertook to break the market, per¬
haps first to enlist a “ short ” interest, and next to enable them to
get in more of their specialties at lower figures, the late iise in
priceB having been unfavorable to their gaining control of the situ¬
ation.
This has not only checked the upward tendency of the mar¬
ket but has also caused most stocks to lose 1@2 per cent of the
advance made earlier in the week. The predominant temper of the
market is sanguine, too sanguine indeed for combinations whose
purpose is to carry up prices much higher, and upon any encour¬
agement the street operators are ready buyers. There is neverthe¬
less a considerable “short"’ interest upon some stocks, but the
sellers in such contracts are cot the ordinary outside operators. At
the moment, the tone of the market is feverish, subject to a depres¬
sion of 1@2 per cent, but much more disposed to follow a rise of
per cent. The more active stocks have been N. Y. Central,
Pacific Mail, Rock Island, Northwestern, Milwaukee & St. Paul,
and Hudson River, and among the miscellaneous, Western Union
Telegraph, Mariposa, the latter having advanced 4£ on our last
quotation.

The vt. Louis Republican of Friday says, in reference to the payment
of the interest of the Missouri Rai!road bonds in coin :
It will be remembered that the Supreme-Court of the United States
has decided, ia the case of Bronson vs. Rodes, and in the case of Butler

®f)C Railroajj JItonitor.
Index to Rails oad and
ro’ume of the Chronicle :

Reports

other

published in the current

that all money obligations entered into in writing, before
of the Legal-Tender act, and made payable on their face ia
gold and silver, must be paid in coin. All the bonds issued by the State
of Missouri in support of railroads belong to this category.
They were
issued before the passage of the Legal-Tender act, and are payable ou
their f ce in gold, interest as well as principal.
The question arises,
therefore, whether the S ate of Missouri will recognize the decision of
the Sup erne Court, and voluntarily pay the July interest on these
brnds in. gold, or whether it will expose itself to the consequences
which may ensue from a refusal to do so.
These consequences ;.r , iu
the case of our State, of a peculiar nature.
For where ;8, ordinarily, a
State cannot be sued by a citizen, or a foreign citizen, in our case such
a suit is
possible indirectly, because the bonds in question Wire issued
in support of the various railroads of our State.
A. suit can, therefore,
be brought against the the railroads ; and these valuable franchises may
be again be exposed to a pub ic sale and the d< preciation consequent
thereupon. Such a suit would, of course, take the ground that the
State could not bre »k a contract, and hence could not debar the holders
or bonds from
proceeding against the railroads iu question, unless their
just claims were satisfied by the State. This is a very iin ortant mat¬
ter to our State—one which ought to be impartially but carefully con

April 23.

Friday Night,

There is

improvement in the general features of trade.
Inactivity and unremuDerative returns are reported in nearly
all the leading staples.
The easier money market and th e
advance in gold, which we have experienced the past - week
have brought little or no relief to the long depression ; and
since the United States Treasury has become a seller of gold
no relief is expected
from the money market or the gold

Pork and Lard, however, have been firmer in the
past few days, owing to a disposition among holders to
corner” those who have been “ selling short” for April
delivery, and probably this phase of the market will last the
remainder of the month. It has had the effect of checking
the export and trade movement in those staples.
Other hog
well
Beef
and
been
weak
; while
products, as
as
Butter have
Cheese, being very scarce, has brought more money. The
markets for Beet Cattle, Sheep, and Swine have shown a
marked decline during the past week.
Hides and Leather have been without essential change, but
on the whole
quiet. Skins are also inactive.
Petroleum has strengthened a little on the liberal demand
to fill vessels now loading, but the supply is ample, and hold¬
ers
disposed to sell freely, and the close is easier. Oils have
been quiet, except for Crude Whale, which has sold to the
extent of about 2,000 bbls at a slight decline from late quo¬
tations.
Naval Stores have become rather quiet in Rosins;
shipping orders have been largely filled, and buyers at the
close are not disposed to pay the advance asked, but the
close is firm.
Spirits Turpentine was depressed and lower
early in the week, but has latterly been more active at some
recovery in prices.
Other Naval Stores are steady.
Hops are firm on reduced receipts and a good shipping and
brewing demand. Hay is rather better. Tallow active for
consumption and shipment at better prices. Whiskey dull
and drooping.
Metals are without important variation and not much
doing, except.1,500,000 lbs. copper for the next three months
at 24c.
East India Goods remain very quiet.
Building
Materials are accumulating in
stock and prices tending
drooping.

The market the

past week has been without animation and
prices have given way slightly under the less favorable Liver
pool advices. On Saturday last, with the report of a quiet
market by cable (although the quotations remained the same,
12jcl for Middling Uplands) and less favorable Manchester
advices, only a moderate business was done here; buyers
were unwilling
to pay prices asked, but holders generally
remained firm, refining to make concessions. Monday the
Liverpool market being a shade off, Middling Uplands closing
atl2|@12£d, our own market was dull and heavy; offerings
were fair and a fair business was done for export, but spinners
and speculators did but little.
There was no change in either
tone or prices reported by cable on Tuesday, but prices here
were a shade easier, although at the concession the offerings
were very moderate, only a
few holders being willing to
accept the lower rates. On Wednesday Liverpool continued
quiet, closing at 12^d, but our own market was without
change, the higher rate for gold and exchange permitting the
execution of a few shipping orders, but the close was heavy.
Thursday the Liverpool market closed dull at 12d and prices
here were off slightly, Middling Uplands being quoted at
28£c and the market extremely dull; holders as a general
thing, however, refused to sell at the decline, but enough was
offered to meet the demand. To day Liverpool has been
without change in price, but with improved tone, and our
market closes to night quiet but steady, the quotations being
a little
better on the higher grades, but a little off on the
low grades.
For forward delivery the only sale of the week
was on
Tuesday, 100 bales Low Middling at 28£c for
June. The total sales for immediate delivery this week fool
up 14,071 bales (including 201 bales to arrive,) of which
4,140 bales were taken by spinners, 1,399 bales on specula¬
tion, 6,624 bales for export, 1,903 bales'in transit, and the
following are the closing quotations:

reported in our last by telegraph,
prove, according to our mail advices, to have been, as we anticipated,
lees damaging than the telegrams indicated.
In fact we think the in¬
jury done will not be sufficient to make any appreciable difFerenfe in
the results of the crop.
Only in a small portion of the low lands, so far
as we can learn, were they very
severe, and replanting will soon re¬
pair the damage done even in those sections. Otherwise the progress
thus far made is satisfactory.
As the season, however, advances it be
more
and
comes
more evident that the labor question is likely to be
encountered this year.
If the crop is an early one, and the pickiog
season long and favorable, very much would be gained in this particu
lar.
In any event, the genera1 opinion appears to be that about three
million bales is the limit of our present picking capacity. There has
been a very free use of fertilizers, in excess of any previous season,
with the intention cf making a heavy crop.
.
The exports of cotton this week from New York skow a small
increase, the total reaching 11,399 bales, against 7,209 bales last
week. Below w6 give our table showing the exports of cotton from
New York, and their direction for each of the last fou .* weeks; also
