The length of the road is 117 5-100 miles: its capital stock $3,OOO,0(X). The grading, bridging, and all the work necessary to perfect a complete roadway has been already done, and the whole line for the rails. These are rapidly being put down, and a portion of the road now in successful operation.1 It is expected that the whole road will be completed is ready is early the coming autumn. , . ,, . the best. Already sums, nearly equal to the total amount of bonds to be issued, have been expended on the road. The bonds, averaging less than $18,000 per mile, are secured by a first mortgage on the whole road, and entire property com¬ pany. The road runs East and Wept on the line of the principal and oldest emi¬ Receipts, as estimated the Garden State. ing road; while, with its connections with many through lines to New York and Baltimore; at Danville with the Toledo, Wabash and Western. In fact the road will form a main link in the direct communication of the principal Atlantic cities with southern Illinois, with Keokuk and Burling¬ ton, Iowa, and thence with Omaha and the Pacific. It will complete a direct line from Boston to Peoria. Keokuk, Burlington. Omaha and the far West, via Albany, Buffalo, Cleveland, and the Bellefontalne Railroad to Indianapolis and Danville, or via Toledo and Wabash and Western Road.

Thus, with the combined advantages of a certainty oi a remunerative local business and a through business, which, as a connecting link to so many diverging and principal lines, it must necessarily have, it is reasonable to presume that the earnings of this road must exceed, in proportion to its length, those of any other Indiana (NARINE) BEYOND 10,000— NO. 85 WALL STREET, NEW YORK.

Without doubt, a progressive increase thereafter, each year, would be the result. The geographical location of the road is alone sufficient to convince all of its great value and usefulness. The stock of the Rock Island and the Illinois Central, the Chicago and Alton, Burlington and Quincy Roads, are all selling at from above par to nearly 200, while none or them are more favorably located, and the competition of them all is much greater than this cau have. There is no reason why the stock of (his road shall not sell as high as either of the above. Hence the privilege of converting these bond9 into stock of this Company at par any time desired greatly increases their value. After having personally and thoroughly examined this road, we accepted the agency for negotiating its bonds. We now offer them at 95 and accrued inter¬ est in currency. with the utmost confidence we recommend them as a reliable and safe security and profitable investment.

It spans the State of New-York greater magnitude or of fairer promise for utility and profit has ever from its Metropolis been undertaken in this State. Its northern terminus is at the City of Oswego, on Lake Ontario. From this point it traverses, in the direction of rich and populous counties of Oswego, Oneida, Madison, Cayuga, Onondago, Cortland, Chenango, Otsego, Delaware, Sulivan, and Orange, where it strikes the borders of New-Jersey, whence it continues under another name and a separate charter that State, to the City of New-York. The last-named division is now in course ,of construction. The entire length of # * New-York, the Ulster obtained from the road is upwards of 400 miles. The road is admirably located for securing a large and profitable business. The northern section of New-Jersey, through which it passes, is one of the most healthful and picturesque regions in the vicini-y of New-York. It only needs the additional attraction of the railroad facilities which this line will afford to transform it into a wealthy and populous suburb of the Metropolis; thus securing to that division of the road a large and constantly increasing local business. The other and main division traverses the eDtire-length of the great midland counties of New-York, which have been hitherto almost destitute of railroad facilities. These counties are as fertile and productive as any in the State; and a9 this road will furnish them their mnch-needed facilities for transportation and travel, it cannot fail to command, throughout its entire length, a large and remunerative local business. Its advantages for through business, both Northern and Western, are also unsurpassed. It shortens the railroad connections of the City of New-York with Oswego and Canada forty-five mi'es; and, by means cf a branch to Auburn, where it connects with the New York Central, it shortens that connection with Buffalo and the We?t seventy miles. These are important advantages. Taken in connection with its thorough construction, its easy grades, and its freedom from sharp curves, it cannot fait to compete successfully with aDy and all other roads for through business. Possessing such superior advantages for commanding both local and through business, and b mg one of the trunk lines of road starting from the great commercial centre of the Union, there would seem to be no room to doubt that the road will prove to be one of the most remunerative in the country. Its construction has been undertaken under financial auspices equally favorable. The citizens of the Midland Counties, feeling the urgent need of railroad facilities, ha*e mede subscriptions to its capital stock to the amount of six millions of dollars. The larger share of these subscriptions have been made by towns and cities in their corporate capacity, and for which they paid ill town and city bonds bearing 7 per cent interest. These bonds being made by law exempt from local and municipal taxation, when held in any county through which the road passes, the Company have found ready sale for them at par and interest whenever they had occasion to use the proceeds, thus rendering the subscriptions for which they were given in payment, equivalent to cash. The Company, therefore, commence its undertaking with a paid-up capital of $6,000,00 which, it is believed, is a larger capital than any other railroad enterprise in th.s country has ever been started with. By express provision of law the towns and cities which have thus subscribed for and now hold a majority of the capital stock of the Company, can never dispose ot it, whatever the market price may be, without the consent of a majority of the tax-payers in the ‘rtfoettive towns and cities. This virtually may be deemed a perpetual prohibition of sale, whereby the control of the road will remain lorever with the farmers and business men residing on its line, who, of all others, are the parties most interested iu its success and thus save it from the hazards of being made a foot-ball of stock operators and speculators. To provide tbe balance of the means that may be found requisite to com;D ete and equip the road, the Company has adopted the usual method of issuing bonds secured Wy a first mortgage on its property. That mortgage has been executed. It conveys to A. A. Low, Geo. Opdyke and Delos De Wolf, in trust, to be held as security for the bon iho ders, the entire road and its branches, from Oswego to the State line of New-Jersev, together with its equipment, franchise, and all other property of the Company appertaining thereto. It aiso provides that the issue of bonds shall be strictly limited to $20,000 per mile of road actually built and in running order. The Company is prosecuting its work with great energy, aud doing it in the most substantial manner. It expects to have one hundred and forty-seven miles or its road finished by the 1st October next, namely, that portion of its main line running from Oswego to Sidney Plains, the point of intersecticn with the Albany and Susquehanna Railroad, together with a branch to New Berlin. / Nearly the whole cost of this portion has been defrayed by the stock subscriptions raised along this part of the line. The grading, masonry and bridging of that portion of the line is alreauy about completed, and not 1. ss than six y miles of track laid. The work is also makiog good progress on other divisions of the road. It is the expectation of the Company, if not retarded by unforaeen obstacles, to have the entire road completed within the ensuing calendar yearri~ In offering these securities to the public, if is due to the Company to say th it. in the preparation of their bond3 and the mortgage under which they are issued, they have cheerfully adopted every suggestion that we have deemed essential to render them the most perfect and attractive railroad security on the market. The mortgage provides that, in case of de'ault, for a period of four mouths, in the payment of interest, the bonds shall become due; and it empowers the trustees, in that event, to take possession of tbe road and all other property covered in the mortgage, aDd to ure or sell the same for the benefit of the bondholders. This we deem a most important provision, as it avoids all the delays and dangers of litigation in case of default; The bonds are issued with coupons; but they provide for registration and reconversion into coupon bonds at the option of the holders. Or, if any holder so elect, he may, by surrendering the coupons, convert them into permanent registered bonds. The boodsare payable in twenty-five years from the 1st of July last. They are payable in gold coin of the United States. They bear gold interest at tbe rate of 7 per cent per annum, p»yable in New-York 1st January and 1st July, free of Government tax.

A&** Remittances should hand six millions of June, nine millions in July and ten millions in August. It is claimed that these govern¬ ment purchases may have tended to deplete the supply on the market so as to give an artificial stimulus to the price. What of truth there may be id tMs conjecture will be seen when Mr. Boutwell ceases to buy and leaves tbe market to itself. This may perhaps be next month, for it is doubtful how far his currency balance, which is now running down, will justify the continuance of purchases in the present liberal scale. However this may be there is no doubt whatever that the improved credit of the government at home and abroad, which is indicated in the large advance and high rates of our bonds during the past few months are largely due to the fiscal returns to which we have referred. The figures of this report United 229 I Changps in the RedeeraiRg * 230 I1 Asren1 s of National Banks I LatestMonetary and Commercial 230 1 English News invariably be made by drafts or Post Office Money Orders. are States stated as Last Wednesday FISCAL YEAR. novelty witnessed at the Treasury. The government advertised to buy two millions of its bonds from the public at market prices, but was unable to get so many, and were obliged to buy the remainder ($863,000) on the following day. Whatever other reasons may help to account for ibis unprecedented scarcity, the chief reason, doubtless, was that a fall of 3@4 per cent had taken place, and that the holders of the bonds, in view of the prosperous fiscal report for the past year, and of the promising position of the Treasury for the coming year, regard their bonds as worth more than the current prices. The fiscal report for the past year is indeed very gratifying. Instead of the alarming deficit which was so confidently predicted, we have a surplus of income, amounting to about 50 millions of dollars, of which 45 millions have been gained under the present admin¬ istration from April 1st to June 30th. Three things have conspired to give us this large surplus. First, the internal revenues have been better collected ; secondly, there has been a great saving made in every department of the administration; and thirdly, the income tax has just brought into the Treasury some 40 millions of dollars. This last cir¬ cumstance it is which has enabled Mr, Boutwell to engage to a was currency on bonds in follows for each of these four quarters: UNITED STATES REVENUES AND EXPENSES—JUNE 30, 1869.

Receipt over expenses Of wh ch gained in four>h quarter, Ap il 1 to June 30,1669 $49,852,701 45,211,215 The foregoing statements are very suggestive. Tbe customs yielded' 180 millions, against 164 millions last year, 176 millions in 1867,179 millions in 1866, 84 millions in 1865, and 102 millions in 1864. The customs duties may now be regarded as yielding an assured revenue of 160 to 180 millions. This sum could not probably be increased with advantage. But a due regard to the public credit will not allow it to be diminished, for on it we are dependent for the means to pay the interest on our national debt. In last year’s internal revenue aggregates, there is a great decrease. " The amount was only 159 millions, against 191 millions the previous year, 266 millions in 1867, 309 millions in 1866, 209 millions in 1865, 109 millions in 1864, and 37 millions in 1863, which was the first year of its collection. The falling off in the internal revenue receipts is due, of course, to the repeal of taxes, and the decrease would have been much more but for the stringent and faithful collection of the taxes, especially of those on whiskey and tobacco, which have been of late enforced with a precision and impar¬ tiality unattained before under our revenue sjstem. The general opinion seems to be, that our internal revenue might duties have with advantage be still further simplified, and that all tht ft I CLB. THE C 230 [August 21, 1869. -U*. T~ minute and less productive taxes should swept from the altogether. * There are not a few persons who believe that the income tax, the whiskey tax, and the tobacco tax, if faithfully collected, would yield almost all that can safely be levied in this country by internal taxes. Leaving this vexed question of taxation, however, it js grati¬ fying to gjuuce at the other side of the balance sheet. Our navy has cost 20 millions against 25 millions in 1868, 31 millions in 1867, 43 millions in 1.866, and 122 millions in 1865. The army cost last year 78 millions against 123 millions the previous year, and 95 millions in 1867. The civil service cost us 56 millions last year, and the pensions and Indians 35 millions. From the lack of detail, these items cannot be at present conveniently compared with those of previous years. We shall probably resume these con¬ siderations hereafter. The result of our analysis, so far as it has been pursued, is amply sufficient to confirm the opinion of those who see in the high prices of our government bonds a result of the improving fiscal strength of our National statute-book •{$ »-'• y .. •; '-L ushel, iyt'fiorn 12c, for oats ?£c,‘ and for flour 48c per barrel, y railroad this produce would be br0pgbti|| $,ree days; canal twenfy days vould be required. The ihipper has by his returnjin the" first case so rmudh quicker than ii*$2fe last, that the minute difference in' the rate would hardly be an object worthy of consideration.! Now it is to be noticed hero that of the Canal charges about one-half are for tolls. Wheat pays about 6c a bushel. The other articles pay in like propor¬ tion. Is it not then easy to see that interest arid profit alike demand a large reduction of these tolls? Experience must certainly soon teach that, and also the further lesson that the canal facilities of this State need enlargement. As we re¬ since, as little as possible should be taken from the producer and consumer for transportation charges for the whole country reaps the benefit of any reduction in these rates. Besides, the present chnal tolls are actually a dis¬ crimination in favor of railroads, and at this very time they are taken advantage of by the shrewd men who control the marked a few weeks railroad interests.

Only a few days since was the impression general tint a decline in the official minimum to 2£ per cent would have taken place that week ; but the directors of the Bank, at their meeting on Thursday, met aud separated without announcing an alteration. The fact is, that the demand for money has consider¬ ably increased during the present week. The inland bills which matured on the “ fourth” have been provided for, and this has neces¬ sarily been one cause of the improvement which has taken place. Again, numerous dividends are now being paid, aud before long the half yearly dividends on about £500,000,000 of railway stocks will be io course of payment. These will temporarily absorb a large supply of money, and although it is only passing from hand to hand, and will soon find its way back to the quarter from whence it wa» taken, yet, while in this state of transition, it is lost to the discount market, aud diminishes the facilities of borrowing money at easy rates. These causes, however, are of but a temporary character, and cannot effect the rates permanently. The impending loans will have a more lasting effect, and it is these, probably, that are now influencing the market to a considerable extent. As so favorable an opportunity is now pre eented, it is anticipated that the East Indian government loan of £8,000,000 of cash, or perhaps a moiety of it to commence with, will be brought forward before long, if not almost immediately. Many of the large financial houses are, no doubt, m iking the necessary prepa¬ rations for that very safe speculation, and the loans that they may be calling in, and the negotiations they may be entering into, are in all poses, 487. 110% % p. c. pm.

Evening, August 20. The Money Market.—In the market tlure is little chaDge from general features of the money last week. Call borrowers have found no difficulty in supplying their wants at 6@7 per cent. The ease in Wall street leans, however, arises to a large extent from the indisposition to employ money on discounts, and is in rea'by an indication of expected activity. The banks with Western connec¬ tions are sending out moderate amounts of currency daily, and these remitdances a>e to be regarded as the beginning of the usual efHux of money to the interior for moving the crops. In order to keep themselves prepared for this outflow, the banks very naturally prefer to employ their money where they can get it on demand, and consequently eschew discounting and other lime engagements, except so far ns may be necessary to accommodate their customers. At present the Westward remittances are made to some extent in the torm of bank currency, and therefore do not represent so much loss of legal tenders. It is to be expected, however, that to mor¬ statement, partly from this cause and partly from a loss of gold fr m the market, will make an unfavorable showing. In anticipation of an active market during the fall mouths, some large holders of stock have made arrangements for having their securities carried in Europe; and others have borrowed gold on time, against stocks, and sel ing the gold have thereby procured currency. I lie discount market, uuder these circumstances, is working with c msiderable elo euefs. Sellers of paper are dependent, to a large ex ten upon street buyers, and have to pay from 9@12 per cent discount on prime names. Exchanges with the interior are not bringing any currency of moment in this; direction. At New Orleans, exchange on New York is quoted § premium, at which figure it would almost pay to remit currency; but as considerable gold is being sent here from that point, there will probab'y be no occasion for the remittance of row’s bank , currency. - tendency 237 arrested wis leading dealers to offer the Treasury have taken ofl the market through sales ot gold, and have distributed YVelne day by the refusal of all the bonds at the Government purchases, the consequence being that only $1,130,000 bonds were the Assistant Treasurer hid to issue proposals for the the remainder of the $2,000,000 on the offered, and purchase of succeeding day This returnl to sell at the reduced quotations produced a reaction of l@l£ per cent In the market, which hn since been maintained. To-day, notwithstanding a lower premium for gold, and reports of the return cf bonds fiorn Europe, the market has been decide Uy strong, and closed with an on improvement of the morning figures The firmer tone nt the close is due to the advance of Sixty Twos at London to 84 and reports that orders have been received for the purchase of a considerable amount of bonds on London account ; the prospect of the Government being a purchaser of $3,000,000 next week—If2,000,000 on Wednesday and $1,000,000 on Thurs¬ day—alto has its influence in strengthening the market, and the more so as no very considerable amounts are coming upon the market. It appe irs there has been an effort on the Lond >n and Frankfort markets to depress the price of bonds; and this attempt has induced a scarcity of bonds, which may account for the firmness of the market. It is also reported that the house of Rothschilds has recently taken an interest in the bonds of our Government; and this fact becoming apparent from the large purcha e3 of the firm, a strong impetus to the demand was a natural result It L nnacistood that large orders on their account have also been received on this side. This important Let amounts to the indorsement of the credit of the United States Government by the greatest banking house in the world, and must have an important bearing on the future value of our securities. The Currency Sixes a»e in more active demand, partly from private investors who desire a loDg investment and partly from financial li slitution*, who, regarding a decline in gold as probable, view them as destined to improve in intrinsic value. Some also are buying on the hop; that the Secretary of the Treasury may be induced to revoke his refusal to allow their being used by the banks as a depo it on the Binking Department against eireula ion.

There it was to connect with the Kansas Pacific, but that road, instead of turning northward to Fort &l)e Rniluiag Jllonitor. Kearney, as originally contemplated, continues due west to Denver, leaving the Atchison line with no outlet. The Atchison road received a subsidy of $16,000 per mile; and its managers claim that as they have fulfill'd their part.of the contract, the government is bound in good faith to give them a Western connection by continuing the endow¬ ment for 150 niles further, to Fort Kearney, where they can cmnect with the Union Pacific. They allege that the road is so well built that not even Kansas freshets have ever destroyed a t ingle cidvert. 'I ho loed busine s is already very large, and will ultimately become very heavy. The company has just put 250,000 acres of land into the market, at from $2 50 to $10 00 an acre, payable iu instalments run¬ ning through ten years.— Chicago Railway Review. ^EXPLANATION OF THE STOCK AND BOND TABLES. 1.

This sum is 12 per rent upon the share capital of the Fort Wavne Company, and equa’s tin* interest on a capitalized sum of $10,714,285— a turn $8,214,285 greater than the /»bare capital of the Company at the date of the lease. By its terms, its fclmrt capital is to be increased by a Ihe amount, upon which, in peipetuity, and free oi government tax, dividends of fi per cent, in quarterly payments of 1^ per cent, are to be forever paid. The fulfillment of the terms of this lease is guaranteed not only by the net earnings of the leased road, which forthepjst five years hive been $3,000,000 in excess of the rental hat would have been called for had the base been in operation, but, bv those of the Pennsylvania Bail read Company, which are twice greater, over and above all changes upon it. A security has thus been created of unexampled excellence, and one which will be sought for as an investment for trust lunds—an investment bearing a high rate of interest, and one in which no change will ever be required, and fur which every possible condition of safety is supplied.

"Under this head we have added the overland shipments direct to manufacturers April 24, as follows: for the present year 241,000 baits. and for last year 260,000 bales. to The course of foreign spinners in entering the Liverpool market and buying largely in excess of immediate wants has resulted the past week in a decided advance in prices here, culminating yesterday in considerable excitement and a with¬ drawal of much of the very small stock previously offered. Private advices by cable to-night, however, indicate that the the fever has probably turned, and when the moment of reflection really comes, we anticipate dull times at Liverpool, while Manchester takings will be small, supplying a large part of their diminished consumption from their stock, which is now large. Shippers have been able during the week to do very little here (notwithstanding the higher prices and excite¬ ment at Liverpool) on account of the decided fall in gold, the difficulty of negotiating exchange, and the upward turn in our market, low grades having advanced fully 2£c since our last report. Spinners havs bought of the high grades, which are more freely offered, to supply immediate necessities. On Saturday and Monday the market was quiet. The former day ordinary and good ordinary advanced £c, but for the better gTades there wa3 no change in price. Tuesday the market was more active, spinners being the main purcha ers, and all grades advanced Jc. Wednesday there was a further advance of £c on the low grades and on middling, and the market was excited. Thursday ordinary and good ordinary advanced 1c, and the better grades £c, and many of the samples were withdrawn by holders so that it was impos¬ sible to fill orders. To day the market is quiet and so closes with an advance of \ cent on all grades. For forward delivery there has been an active demand and prices have advanced, but the close is heavy. Sales have reached about 11,675 bales (all low middling, or ou the basis of low mid¬ dling), of which 100 bales were for July, at 32£c; 200 bales for September on private terms; 200 bales for Sep¬ tember at 31c.; 100 bales for September at 32£c.; 550 bales for October on private terras; 100 bales for October at 29c.; 60 bales for October at 29£c.; 100 bales for October at 29£c.; 125 bales for October at 29£c; 200 bales for October at 30c.; 50 bales for November at bales for November at 28c.; 100 28Jc.; 1,000 bales for December on private terms ; 500 bales for December at 27-Jc ; 900 bales for December at 27ic^400 bales for December at 27Jc.; 1,550 bales for December at 28c.; 300 bales for December at 28£c.; 100 bales for December and January on private terms; 100 bales same months at 27fc.; 350 bales for January on private terms; 150 bales for January at 26fc; 250 bales for January at 26|c.; 1,100 bales for January at 27c.; 50 bales for January at 27£c; 400 bales for February at 27c.; 100 bales for February at 27*c.; 400 bales for December free on board at Savannah at 26|c.; 200 bales same at 27c.; 100 bales free on board at New Orleans at 27fc.; 1,100 bales November and December free on board at Savannah and New Orleans on private terms ; 200 bales December and January free on board at Savannah at 27£c,; 200 bales December and January (half each month) free on board at Mobile at 27fc.; for December at 27£c.; 75 bales for October and same for November deliverable in Baltimore on private terms.

The leading point of interest in the market this week ha* demand for dress goods and various others, where the demand last week was confined almost exclusively to heavy staple goods, both cotton and woolen. This more general inquiry has still been stimulated by the sharp com¬ petition in railroad freights to the West, which offers great inducements to ship goods immediately, as the low tariff cannot possibly be continued much longer. A second point of importance also, is the fact that Gotton closes one cent higher than last Friday.

A noticeable feature of the trade so far is the entire absence of those lines of cheap and trashy goods which last season’s opening produced in such quanti¬ ties on the niaiket. Dealers have evidently learned that the day for such fabrics is past, and that the goods offered now must be in attrac¬ tive grades, and of some intrinsic value. Jobbers are doing very little in this line as yet, although a goixl business is,anticipated as 6oon as the season is opened.
