THE PAYMENT OF THE TEMPORARY LOAN*

One of the best features of

internal

laws, is
the diffusion of payments throughout the whole year, and
over every
part of the country, so that the currency shall
not be seriously deranged by a sudden heavy
depletion when
the taxes are paid into the Treasury.
The same method is
in England, where the chief payments of excise
adopted
duties are made every six weeks.
Both there and in this
country, however, the income tax forms a necessary excep¬
tion to this good rule; and the payments,
being made once a
year, cause a very large amount of currency to be taken at
once out of the channels of the circulation.
Thus, in our
present anomalous financial condition, stringency or some
other derangement in the money market might be produced.
To meet the evil, Congress has very wisely decided that the
tax shall be payable in

commercial year, when less than the usual volume of the

suffice for the wants of business. Consequently,
of the circulation to the needful extent, produces
little, if any, interruption of the monetary ease which usually
prevails, and there is ample time for the disbursement of the
money from the Treasury before it is required by the activity
of the Fall trade, which begins in
September. Now, this
year we have been unable to gather in the sixty ^millions of
income tax at the proper time, in consequence of the
delay
of Congress to amend the law until the last hours of the
session.
Hence, it is much to be feared that we shall not be
able to get together the currency needful without
causing
perturbation in the money market. But at the present
moment such perturbation would
seriously compromise Mr.
McCulloch’s funding movements, which are so
happily and
successfully advancing. Such, then, is the financial situation.
Sixty millions of currency have to be paid into the Treasury
just at the beginning of the Fall trade, and yet the ease of the
money market must, if possible, be kept stable, unshaken and
tranquil. Ju this state of the facts is to be found the explanation
of the notice, which we publish elsewhere, from Mr.
McCulloch,
announcing that after the 26th instant all temporary deposits
in the ’Treasury
except the Clearing House certificates will
cease to bear interest.
For the consequence of this arrange¬
ment will be that these
deposits, which amount to about
sixty-nine millions, will, in a fortnight or less, be withdrawn.
The people will thus have an ample amount of the

medium added to the current of paper

out of the Treasury, restored the equilibrium of the circula¬

partizans finds fault, of course, with the memorial
and objects to the gradual sale of coin as proposed.
Now, the truth is, that the market price of gold is one
thing, and the depreciation of the currency is another. In
England towards the close of the bank suspension in 1817,
the irredeemable paper currency was depreciated at least
thirty per cent., and yet gold sold at a very much smaller
premium, the public transactions being extremely few, as
scarcely any gold was wanted by the public. So with us,
the purchasing power of our paper dollar is less now than
when gold was at 250. This is not due to increased taxation,
as can be proved by confining our comparison to articles on
which the burden of taxation was as great then as it is now.
Facts every day visible, and multiplying around us, prove,
beyond a doubt, that the premium on gold is as untrust¬
worthy an indication of the extent of the depreciation of the
currency, as a thermometer would be of the heat of your
house, if the quicksilver was liable to be continually acted
upon by a'thousand heating or cooling influences, besides the
general temperature of the apartment in which it is sus¬
pended. To attempt to regulate the depreciation of the cur¬
rency by any manipulation of the gold market, indeed, is as
effectual as would be the project of warming your conserva¬
tory by heating artificially the bulb containing the quicksilver,
so that the register shall point to the desired figure.
Although neither the hoarding of gold nor the selling of
gold, nor any manipulations whatever of the market price of
gold, can really lessen the depreciation of our paper money,
still in our foreign commerce, which amounts to at least onetenth of the whole commerce of the country, very great mis¬
chiefs are caused by the fluctuations in the price of gold, and
stability in the premium is a necessity of the very highest
sort to the prosperity of our foreign trade and of such parts
of our domestic trade as depends thereon. To this point

England, which shakes the markets and the banks of London
and Paris in the afternoon can be felt in its recoil upon our

Europe have, in a measure, ceased to be foreign politics for
us.
The fibres of their influence, for good or for evil, underrun and penetrate the whole system of our own commerce
and finance, affect our vitality, and demand our supervision.
Let us see, then, to it, that the possible, we may almost say
the probable, outbreak at an early day of an armed conflict
between France and Prussia does not escape our observation,
in the midst of the joyful cries of “ peace” which are just
now going up on the Bourse and in Threadneedle street.
The brief telegraphic accounts which we have received
during the latter part of the current week of a demand made
by France upon Prussia for the frontier of the Bhine ; of the
refusal of that demand by Prussia; and of the acquiescence
of the Emperor Napoleon in the Prussian response to his
request, these brief telegraphic accounts are very far from
setting the real position of things plainly before our minds.
There is, indeed, something absurd and improbable in the
obvious tenor of these dispatches as they come to us ; for
nothing could be further from the proprieties of political life
than for France suddenly to “ demand” of Prussia the cession
of Prussian provinces on the Bhine ; and no man who knows
anything of the real relations of the Bunaparte dynasty to
public opinion and to power in France can for a moment be¬
lieve that a Napoleon would permit himself to stand up
before his own subjects as one “ snubbed” and humiliated by

Immediately after the Prussian victory of Koniggrafz, or

stand upon the concession of them, and then interposed at this
point to modify the imperious intentions of the conqueror.
It was the avowed purpose of Count Bismark to punish
Saxony by absorbing,her into the Prussian realm. King
William of Prussia hesitated at such a flagrant violation of

Germany of which Prussia is to be the head. The Austrian
contribution to the Prussian treasury, fixed by Bismark at
200.000,000 ot francs, was next reduced by the representa¬
tives of Napoleon to seventy five millions of francs.
These

The line from Singapore to Australia could be carried

any great delay in undertaking this part of the chain, which,

of Prussia to accede to the de¬
mand, has had the effect of running up the price of gold to 1521,
from which there has not been a corresponding decline, consequent
upon the acquiescence of Napoleon in Prussia’s refusal. This
afternoon, a report that gold has been shipped from London for
New York, said to have been received by cable, had the effect of
putting down the premium about one per cent.
The supply of gold is still very largely in the hands of a specula¬
tive combination, who are lending quite freely at about £ per cent
per day. The market is sensitive, under apprehensions that the
supply may be increased either by the Secretary of the Treasury
selling a moderate amount, or by receipts from Europe ; for at the
present rates of exchange it would pay a handsome profit to import
specie. The price closed this evening at 150 .
The export of specie from this port last week amounted to
$157,985. The steamer Tariffa took out on Wednesday $51,000

Friday Night,

the total since January 1, and for the same period in 1866 :

~

from the

and

Aug. 17.

general improvement in trade, which was noticed last
week, has been more decided during the past few daj’s. The
weather has become cool and comfortable. There is a toler¬
able certainty of good crops South and West.
The cholera
has almost wholly disappeared.
The premium on gold has
advanced, and shows much firmness in the face of many ad¬
verse financial circumstances ; and we have had a period of
six weeks extraordinary dullness, during which the stocks of
goods in the hands of jobbers and retailers have become
greatly reduced. All which facts are regarded as highly
favorable to an active trade and secure profits.
Cotton has recovered from the lowest point fully 1 cent

The

Government en¬
tered the market for Pork early in the week, which led to a
speculative advance, it being surmised that the Commissary
General would take more than1 he called for. He did not,
however, and the extreme advance has not been supported.
Bacon and Cut Meats are in better supply. The prospect of
the usual export demand for Bacon for Great Britain during
the coming season, is very small, indeed, in view of the in¬
telligence which reaches us

Freights have been active in the shipment of corn to
Great Britain, and cotton to Liverpool. The shipments the
past three days foot up 350,000 bushels corn, and 4,500
bales cotton. Room is plenty and rates steady.

Hops are dull. The crop for this country this year is
estimated as high as 70,000 bales, or more than twice as
large as last year. The last accounts from the English crops
are, however, unfavorable, and our holders are not disposed
to push sales.
Metals of all kinds have been doing rather better towards

ply and cheapness of paratory to an increased supply of
English Bacon. Beef of all kinds remains quiet. Butter of
the common Western description has been taken largely for
California, and prices generally are firmer. The demand for
Cheese for the British markets has been large.
Coffee has been quiet, and prices are unchanged. Sugars
have improved a little with the premium on gold, with a
fair though not large demand. Molasses has been active for
all grades, but at some decline from late nominal quotations
for the better qualities. The lower qualities have been taken
largely for distilling. The sales to day included a cargo of
Porto Rico, at 62c., and another of Trinidad at 52c. Rice
and Spices have been quiet. In Teas the business has been
liberal, but prices are kept private.
Naval Stores are slightly lower for the leading articles,
but close firm, with more inquiry.

SOUTH CAROLINA.

The Beaufort (S. C.) New South of the 4th ot August says: “The recent
rains have refreshed everything wonderfully. We have seen several fields of
cotton which are being picked, though we hear that the plant is not frilly
matured. The planters now are safe from all contingencies except the cater¬
pillars, which have reappeared in small numbers, but the boll is hardened so
that they cannot do the damage they might have done had they come earlier.
TEXAS.

The Galveston News of the 16th of July says “ That a large planter on the
Brazos informed the writer that he expects to make 350 bales of cotton from
450 acres.” On the 21st the same paper says: “We have received letters from

different parts of the State and all speak of the genuine army worm, and no
possible chance for mistake. The general destruction of the crop of cotton is now

The Gonzales Enquirer of the 28th July, says:
“ The accounts from this
county are more favorable than before received. The rains have wonderfully

improved the cotton prospects. Our advices from the different p*rts of the
State are also more encouraging. The crop will turn out finely, if not injured
by the worm.”
The Crocket Sentinel of July 24, says: “For the past two weeks the
weather has been quite seasonable, and the cotton crop is looking quite promis¬
ing.” The editor adds: “ The prospect is favorable for a good yield.”
The Bastrop Advertiser reports: “ Cotton, splendid prospect, if not visited
by the army worm.”
The Commercial BuUetin, of Galveston, says: “ We extract the following
from a piivate letter dated Huntsville, July 11th: ‘ I have just returned from a
trip through the counties of Polk, Liberty, Trinity, Houston and all over
Walker. In Walker county the crops look better than in any other. Cotton is

about four feet high and blooming. On the other side of the Trinity the crops
do not look so well. On some plantations they will begin to pick cotton about
the 26th of August.1 ” Another letter also from Huntsville, same date, 11th
July, says: “Cotton is looking well, on our place it has bursted from the boll,
and in a few weeks the field will be white with it.”

Our advices from Georgia show that there has been intense heat for a month
or more, and over a large portion of the State a severe and protracted drouth.
Corn has suffered greatly. Cotton not so much, except that the plant is small
and not advanced. One writer in speaking of the corn fields says. “ they look as
if some deadly wind had sapped out the last particle of life.” The rains of the
last few days have furnished some relief.

Liverpool, London and otther cotton markets.*

Liverpool, Aug. 4.—A fair demand has been experienced for most

descriptions of cotton this week, and the total sales amount to
74,6000 bales of which spinneis have taken 44,750 bales; exporters
24,780 bales; and speculators 5,070 bales. With the exception
of Egyptian cotton, the market is freely supplied.
From this
circumstance and from the fact of the Bank minimum rate of dis¬

remaining at 10 per cent., any upward movement in prices has
been checked. The quotations indeed, are mostly without change from
last week, the only exception being as regards Egyptian cotton, which
has improved in value -&d. per lb. At oue period of tbe week Ameri¬
can cotton realised an advance of £d. but that advance has since been
lost. Much anxiety is now felt respecting the* American crop, but so
far the accounts are favourable, and so long as this remains the case,
count

spiners will not operate in

excess

of their actual wants.
