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 July,- during the dead season of the commercial year, when less than the usual volume of the • our revenue NO. 60. 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arrange¬ ment will be that these deposits, which amount to about sixty-nine millions, will, in a fortnight or less, be withdrawn.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 circulating medium added to the current of paper money just at the very moment when this money is wanted to be paid to the currency will the depletion Government for income tax. Hence these payments, it is supposed, will be made without producing even, smooth current of monetary affairs. all. Ten millions of interest thirties on a ripple on the But this is not the first series of Seven- being rapidly disbursed, so that nearly eighty millions of currency will be paid out of the Treasury in order to furnish means to pay in sixty millions. If the question he asked how the greenbacks are to be ob¬ tained by Mr. McCulloch for such heavy payments, the an¬ swer is obvious. The currency balance now in the Treasury is large, and amounts to seventy millions of dollars. The daily receipts are heavy, and will furnish ample funds for the Or, should there be any deficiency, it payments required. cannot cause derangement, inasmuch as the Loan Bill of 1862 permits the emission of a limited amount of greenbacks for this special purpose, which, if issued, can be cancelled again in a few days, before they have time to enter into the general current of business so as to inflate prices or depreciate the are now value of the currency. expectations are fully realized or not, it is Mr. McCulloch has made a good movement in Whether these certain that getting rid of the temporary a source of weakness to the deposits.

Moreover, as we have fre¬ quently pointed out, they acted as a safety valve to our over¬ strained financial machinery, and during the negotiations of the immense loans of 1SG3 and 18G4 prevented much mis¬ chief. For whenever, from any derangement of the currency? stringency invaded the money market, the call loans flowed out of the Treasury, restored the equilibrium of the circula¬ tion, and ended the derangement of the money market. It has been supposed that when the temporary loans are paid off we shall lose this control over Mr. McCulloch should any movements of his tend to produce a monetary spasm or strin¬ gency. This, however, is not so, as there will still remain the fifty millions of outstanding Clearing House certificates, which are payable on demand in greenbacks, and, '*-e believe, it is not intended at present to meddle with these securities, except, indeed, that the interest should per cent, instead of four, as at present.

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 the memorialists very properly direct attention at the com¬ classes of before us, despatch informs us, is disposed to coincide in the leading principles announced in this letter, although he cannot regard it as expedient or consistent with mencement of their letter. his duty to adopt the measures it proposes.

We agree, therefore, with three hundred millions of National Bank notes. To begin the memorialists, that when there actually is a surplus of gold beyond what is required by law, the excess should be by amassing coin for the redemption of greenbacks before, sold ; and we have it sold at frequent intervals with the by calling in our currency and contracting its volume, we have put ourselves in a position to use that coin for resuming utmost publicity.

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 the sovereign of those Prussians whom every Frenchman hates with a religious hatred as the fated instruments of the Now that a overthrow of the first French Coesar at Waterloo. retrospect of the steps by which France and Prus¬ their present attitudes, relatively to Europe and to each other, will throw light upon these dark things of the cable, and prepare the reader to judge with us of the A brief sia have reached prospects of peace and war involved in the actual condition of affairs. Immediately after the Prussian victory of Koniggrafz, or Sadowa, it will be remembered that Austria, through the Emperor Napoleon, made propositions of peace to Prussia, and, handing over Venetia to the French monarch, requested his good offices with Italy also. The Emperor speedily dis¬ covered that Prussia was not disposed to deal with Austria on any such favorable terms as he would himself have pre¬ ferred to see offered to the fallen ILapsburgs; and that Italy, galled at the notion of accepting ^Venetia as a gift from a neutral, insisted upon being allowed to go on fighting, and to win it by the force of her own With extraordinary good sense, and that arms. large confidence in the future, which seems to amount in him almost to genius, Napoleon accepted the impracticable ' impracticable, and turned his mind to doing what he found it possible to do.

All these in North to the things being done by Francis Joseph, the French Emperor took his 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 the divine right of kings, in which he himself devoutly believes, aid Napoleon putting forward the gratitude which, as a Bonaparte, he owes to the royal family of Saxony, which stood by his uncle to the last in the dark days of 1813, availed himself of the scruples of the Prussian King to defeat the projects of the Prussian premier. Saxony remains an independent monarch in that confederation of North 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 points made, the armistice was signed between Austria and Prussia, and shortly after between Austria and Italy, the latter power treating quite independently of her North German ally. The case of the South German States in alliance with Austria now came been successful in the West as up for action. as The Prussian arms had in the East; but Bavaria Wurtemburg and Baden were still relatively in a much better position than Austria. This fact, however, instead of moving Bismark to forbearance, seems only to have stimu¬ lated him to sharper and more offensive measures against them. The armies of South Germany were assailed while the negotiations for an armistice were going on between the Prussian and the South German authorities ; and the cities of South Germany, occupied by the Prussian troops, were At this subjected to harsh and exasperating treatment. second grand juncture of affairs it is that we now find Napo¬ leon coming forward to ask of Prussia a “ rectification” by diplomatic means of the eastern frontier of France as a pre¬ liminary to the adjustment of the South German question. In this “ rectification”, Prussian territory is not the only German territory involved. Luxembourg, which belongs to Holland, the Palatinate, which belongs to Bavaria, a Bhenish province of Oldenburg, and a Bhenish province of Hesse, all lie in the path over which France must move to the rectification” of her eastern frontier. If the war and “ between Prussia and ! South Ger¬ many, all • this territory will be liable to invasion by the Prussians, and to military changes in its political situation. The proposition of Napoleon, therefore, amounted to this : that by a pacific arrangement between Prussia and himself, this new peril of a collision between France and Prussia growing out of the active political status of the Bhine terri¬ tory might be obviated. “ France,” said the Emperor, does this in the interest of peace, which she desires far more than territorial aggrandizement.” Fair words, but charged with a formidable meaning in view of the actual and probable condition of Germany ! The Emperor asks Prus¬ sia to join with France in making the left bank of the Bhine safe from the eventualities of the coming conflict on the right Prussia refuses to do so, and France bank of that river. quietly withdraws and waits events, “hoping only,” in a decerous but significant way, “ that Prussia will not extend her projects of annexation to the German States south of the Main.” But it is not easy for Prussia to say whether she is to go on “ can or cannot restrain her annexationist tendencies “ the Main.” War breeds strange south of results, not always controlable by those who enter upon it.

The maturing of the August coupons of Seven thirties on the 15th released nearly 11 millions of currency from the Treasury, which is gradually finding its way upon the market.

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 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.

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 Indian Corn have • 3 ?

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.
