is current that
fifty million loan is about
offered for public subscription. Influential persons have
certainly utged such a loan on the Secretary of the Treasury,
but as he is not in immediate want of
funds, and is supplied
by the Internal Revenue with more than one million of dol¬
lars a day, it seems doubtful whether he could be induced to
yield to the pressure, even were there no special difficulties
in the way. We understand the
proposal is to issue fifty millions
of ten-forty five
per cent bonds, and to receive in payment at
par and interest the compound interest legal tender notes.
The arguments in favor of this
project are that it would con¬
vert a short
government obligation into a long one; that
more ten-forties are wanted
by the national banks as a
security for the circulation; that the payment in compound
interest notes would diminish the
currency and check infla¬
tion ; and that the loan could be
negotiated without product

panic, things were in such a
train that a loan of fifty millions on terms such as we have
stated was on the eve of being announced; and would have
been speedily followed, if successful, by a seconds loan of
equal or greater amount.
g
Now we do not wish to give too much credit to these
vague rumors; but as they have produced a certain im¬
pression in Wall street, and have raised the prices of com¬
pound interest notes while depressing the price of the tenforties, we propose to enquire how far such a loan as the one
proposed is required by the National Treasury, conducive to
the best interests of the country, and

When the

it is
probable that these very ten-forty bonds now so unpop¬

be the most widely held, and will form the nucleus of the
permanent funded debt of this country. However this may
ular and
be, it is believed that the whole National Debt will event¬
ually be funded at a rate of interest not above 5 per cent,
and that a long 5 per cent bond of the United States will
again be worth par, even after we have resumed specie pay¬
ments.
The necessity ought to be very clear and
impera¬

justify Mr/ McCul¬

But there is no immediate pressure on the
Treasury nor any
anticipated embarrassment from these compound interest
notes.
Of the 212 millions outstanding none have run half
their term, and the greater
part will not mature for almost
two years.
Hence no trouble can at present arise from them.

throughout the South, to the consideration of the probable future crop, candor compels us
to avow
that the prospect looks anything but
flattering. Involved in
this question is the much debated theme of

The total statistics of Southern manufacture in 1860,
approximated the following aggregates:
Number of manufacturing establishments, 27,954; capiital invested, $181,538,000; value of raw material, $158,065,000; help employed, 168,038 males, and 34,417 fe¬

These amounts show a flattering increase over the returns
of the census of 1850.
The revival of manufacturing will
now increase at a
greatly accelerated ratio. There will be a
greater demand for labor and for the products of manufac¬
ture; and we shall add in this connection, that already the
factories of the South, many of them, are changing owners.
Northern men accustomed to the business have gone South,

marks the final recovery of the country from the disastrous
etfects of 1831, as is evidenced by the banking

commodities, and by
the reinstatement of foreign capital in former
employments
and enterprises.
At this time the valuation of taxable prop¬
erty in Ohio, in proportion to her population p§r£apita, was
greater than it has ever been since. This iWluation was
$421.18; in other words, it was estimated that each inhabi¬
tant of the State possessed an
average of $421:18 worth of
taxable property. Of course this is not understood to be lite¬

capitalists in other states of the Union and in foreign countries,

debt receded under good management to

GREAT BRITAIN.
LONDON AND LIVERPOOL DATES TO AUG. 12.
Monetary and commercial affairs continue
to be characterized by
period of the year. The
England, and the advance in
interest, added to the very unfavorable reports of the grain harvest,
have tended to great caution, and a decline in
nearly all kinds of
securities consols show a decline of three quarters
of a cent during
the week.
The reduction in other securities -has been
proportion¬
ate, although thpre is an entire absence of anything like
agitation.
The prospects of an extra demand for
money to pay for foreign
breadstuffs, in consequence of the deficient harvests, is regarded un
favorably in view of the narrow bullion margins in the Bank of
England. It is generally considered that any fresh demand for
money is likely to advance the rates of interest still more. The de¬
mand for discounts in London continues brisk with
large supplies of
money, but no tendency to do business at less than four per cent,
except in the case of first class paper at short dates, which is oc¬
casionally quoted at three and a half.
The advance in wheat during the week amounts to nine cents
per
bushel.
This movement in the
:grain market added to the high
prices of butcher’s meat indicates a scarcity of supplies, and a firm
if not stringent money market.
Tlie suspension has been announced of Mr. Baldwin Yon
Bartels,
of Pinner’s-court, Loudon, in
consequence of the stoppage of Messrs
Brandt, Sohn & Co., of Buenos Ayres and Montevideo, in which
house he is a partner. The liabilities are estimated at
£70,000, and
the assets are almost
exclusevely in Buneos Ayres and Montevideo.
The report thence by the last mail shows a dividend on

diminution in the specie at the Bank of

the half-yearly meetings of the London Joint
Banking Companies show the extraordinary progress and
good standing of these institutions. The liabilities of the ten prin¬
cipal metropolitan banks amounted in round numbers to £85,000,000, nearly the whole of which is represented by
deposits. The as¬
sets on June
Stock
30th amounted to £99.904 912,
showing an apparent
balance of assets over liabilitiesf of
nearly £15.000.000 ; but this
sum will have to be diminished
by about £4 630,000, on account of
securities for acceptances and
preliminary expenses, so that the ac¬
tual surplus will be rather more than
£10,000,000, an ample guar¬
antee for the
security of the depositors. Taking the means of
these banks in the
aggregate, they have in cash rather more than
13 per cent of their liabilities; and of
government securities which
can be realised at
any moment, 8 per cent?in addition. The divi¬

Letters from Bombay state that it is difficult for one who is
not
on the
spot to picture the blank dismay and the universal distrust
which prevail iu the Western
capital, and still more so to trace the
evil to its causes.
The lowest sum at which we can
fairly take the
profits made by Bombay in cotton during the four years of
the American war is fifty millions. The
popular estimate on the
spot I found to be eighty, but that includes the price usually paid
for cotton to the extent of seven or
eight millions, and the sums
said to have been sent into the
city from the interior by those who
had previously hoarded.
But the ablest merchant in Bombay, who
has travelied much in the agricultural
districts, and speaks the lan¬
guage of the people, assures me that no hoards were sent into Bom¬
bay. From the 50 millions which were available for other purposes
than legitimate trading we must deduct 10 as the amount of
extra
profit kept by the peasantry and middle men in the interior. This
will leave 40 millions for
speculation in the island of Bombay.

against the cotton at the high prices which prevailed when it was

the return of these bills./ We are thus reduced to 20
millions, the
debris, as it were, of the ruin now taking place. The local estimates
of th£ liabilities of Bombay speculators for shares alone
vary from
1C millions to 30 millions.

has been active, with a continued steadiness in
prices. The trade

The system of
mining which prevails renders it impera¬
of mines to use every effort to satisfy the share¬
holders by the regular payment of dividends, or, at all events, in de¬
preciation in the value of the shares by avoiding “call." To ob¬
tain this end tin ore has been raised, “dressed," and also in an
already glutted market at whatever price the smelter could offer.
Hence the value of the ore sold, £925,069, which was
upwards of
£38,000 less thau the money value of the block tin sold in 1663.
Copper.—From 192 mines in South-western England, andabouj.

tons of copper ore, producing 13.302 tons 13 cwt. of metallic

per, were obtained.
In addition to this our smelters imported 67,283 tons of ore. 26 0S1 of copper regulus, 10,015 tons of bricks and

recovered its wonted tone.
Money is su¬
perabundant, and the strict rate of interest about 2 per cent
lower.
The large accumulation in the
Treasury at the begin¬
ning of the month has been since distributed, and since the
15th inst? about $10,000,000 has been
paid as interest on
Seven-thibty notes. Several millions have also been with¬
drawn from the
temporary deposits at the Sub-Treasury.
From these conjoint sources there has been
probably wellthrown into action or circu¬
lation within the last
twenty days; and the natural result is
that the supply
largely exceeds the demand, and the rates of
interest has fallen to the
point at which it stood before the
Secretary of the Treasury withdrew the amount of $80,000,000
of currency into the
Treasury. For the last two or three
days money has been literally hawked around the “ Street ”

Securities.—Government stocks have
firmness during the week. The successive
quotations showing a decline in 5-20's at London and Frank
fort have had little effect
upon the price here, owing to the
fact that the old issue has become
quite scarce, and has been
in demand from
parties disposed to hold them in expectation
of a rally in the
foreign quotations; the price has advanced
from 106£ to
106J. iThe new issue has been corresponding¬
ly firm, and closes at:104j. Ten-Forties are
again in active
demand, and have advanced from 97 to 97?.
Seven-Thirties,
notwithstanding that at the present price of gold their inter¬
est is much more valuable
than that of the
gold interest bonds,
continue firm and
active; there is reason, however, for be¬
lieving that the price is kept up by the operations of a
wealthy outside banker, largely interested in
sustaining the
current quotations.
A cotemporary gives the
following com¬
parison of the ratio of interest to principal, on the
leading
securities, which exhibits- the g ’eat disparity between the
price of Seven-Thirties and other stocky :—

The
principal change in the above return is the decline in
the bullion, which is attributed partly to the shipments of
of gold to Brazil and partly to the demand for coin for the
harvest.
The reduction in the other securities indicates the
diminished demand for money.

Prints have been very
active, and the market is nearly bare of
goods, while prices have again advanced to those of ten days ago.
Agents have few or no goods on hand, and it is becoming more a
question of goods than prices. The reduction of last week was the
signal tor large calls from country merchants and Western buyers,
and the demand is still great, although prices
are much above the
actual cost of production. The small
supply held by the jobbers is
almost wholly distributed, and with the
present briskness of trade
and scarcity of goods prices are
likely to be further advanced.
There has been less advance iu prices
by agents than by the jobbers,
as in some instances
jobbers were selling below agents prices. Mer¬
rimack now sells by agents at 32 for W, 30 for D, and 32 for frocks;

The London Market.—A circular of the 11th

The weather this week has been on the Whole favorable for harvest
work.
On Monday morning a good deal of rain fell, but about mid¬
day, it cleared up and has been warm and bright since, up to yester¬
day.
At Monday’s market considerable excitement was
manifested in
the trade owing to the unsettled stale of the weather
and the re¬
ported injury to the wheat crop from t he late heavy rains. English

wheat was in good demand at an advance of 2s to 3s

prepared statement of the amount of insurance, alleged loss, and
paid. There are also references to special cases of interest.
The impression so common, that the number of incendiary fires
has much increased of late,, is incorrect.
During the last half year
there have been in all one hundred and seventy-six fires, of which
eighty-two were of incendiary origin—eight less than occurred in
the corresponding six Months of 1864. There were during the same
time thirty-nine arrests of persons on charges of arson, or attempts
to commit that crime.
Of this number two were indicted, tried, and
convicted of arson ; six discharged by the Grand Jury; eleven dis¬
charged by police magistrates; six indicted, and now awaiting trial;
four held to bail, (two of whom have fled the city, and forfeited their
bail, ten thousand dollars;) two discharged on their own recogni¬
zances ; one held as a witness, and seven committed

seventy six, being nineteen less than occurred during the correspond¬
ing six months of 1864, aud seven less than during the previous half
year. The aggregate of losses, however, i3 much heavier, there
having been several very destructive fires during the period. The
destruction of property on storage in the South and Water Street
stores, which caught fire from the heat of a burning cooper’s build¬
ing on the opposite side of the street, entailed the largest loss.
With regard to the new Paid Fire Department, the Marshal
says that “ it is curious to note that while we are resorting to the
English plan of paid fire brigades, there is a disposition on the part
of the English to imitate our volunteer system.
