The question is, whether in our rapid building report, on which we deferred our comments until the issue up of new financial machinery we have not built too much of the appendix, containing the usual statistics. The rapid growth of the National banking system is without precedent in the annals of finance. ing these institutions The earliest of the two acts creat passed 25th March, 1863, and the organized 20th June following. Yet, in Oc¬ tober, 1864, the number was 50, with an aggregate capital of $86,782,802. At the same date in 1865 the number was first bank was was 1,513, and the total capital $393,157,206. In 1866 there 1,643 banks, with a capital of $415,278,969. This year were in places and too little in others. To obtain the first answer to this question a good method will be to look at the relative deposits of the banks. For where the natural centres of financial activity are, thither will the deposits tend by a law as strong as that of gravita¬ tion and with a choice as constant as that of chemical affinity. The individual deposits of the banks are thus one of the best tests we can apply with a view to discover the growth, utility, and fit distribution of the banks. In October, 1863, some crude elements of the the deposits were in the aggregate 8 millions, in 1864 they j England banks issued an extra amount, and were very readv had risen to 122 millions, in 1865 to 501 millions, in 1866 { to do so because they gained by the operation.

Some persons redemp. have proposed to remedy this want of no elasticity by enlarging the limit of 300 millions to which the 50 note issues are restricted. But this expansion and 46 enlarge¬ o7 ment of the currency is not to be tolerated. Others would take away the note issuing privilege from the banks banks, organized during the financial pressure and as their currency is not more elastic than that of Gov. and the general inflation of paper-money mient notes, let Government have the benefit, they say, of most of them of the late war, credit, it is singular that they should have been distributed over the States. posits being taken so equably The relative amount of the de¬ indicative of the extent of the field for banking enterprise, we see that there is for the most part a harmonious adjustment. An objector might, indeed, say that in as localities the deposits could be created artifieibe over-stimulated by a hot bed forcing process. some ally, or This argument does not seem to have much force. At any rate it is refuted by the condition of the New England * banks, which have failed to get more than 83 millions of deposits, although they have 104 millions of circulation, it is also in direct contradiction to the condition York banks, which hold no of the New less than 262 millions of deposits, though they have only 60 millions of circulation. This question of the unequal distribution of banks is an interesting one, because on it depends the elasticity and efficiency of the national banking system, and perhaps its permanence also. During the last three months complaints have been very general of the want of elasticity in our cur¬ rency. Now elasticity is just what a bank note circula¬ tion claims to impart. It is because in this respect and a and not liable to be-thrown back into its vaults for few others a bank currency is superior to a government cur¬ the circulation. Mr. Ilurlburd gives a good deal of his space argument with Congress that the National Banks should not be deprived of the currency privilege. But he fails to show, as he might easily have done, how the complaints have arisen against the banks, aud how those complaints de¬ mand wiser treatment, and would be aggravated by the rash remedies proposed. Mr. Ilurlburd would have conferred greater value on his report if he had said mole of the administrative methods by which so great a measure of practical success lias been secured in the working of the system. The only means of this kind to which he refers are the stringency of the law, which, in his hands has been very firmly and judiciously administered. One of the most valuable safeguards of the solvency of the banks is, of course, the publicity to which their business is exposed! Tnis principle of publicity Mr. Hurlburd urges Congress to apply to the banks more fully by requiring them to make a full report monthly instead of quarterly as at pre¬ sent. If such reports were made and promptly printed in the newspapers instead of being kept,in the Department at Washington until they cease to be of any great practical use the protective force uf such a safeguard of solvency to an . that government foregoes the profits of issuing paper would certainly be enhanced. There is another precaution of great money. If our banking system cannot give us a uniform importance, which is, elastic currency, that sy stem cannot endure, but must sooner we believe, peculiar to our National banking system. We or later give place to something better. We do not intend refer to the organization of the official examiners.

It is certain that with the drouths which have been of late years so common, there is alack of prudence in permitting water to be taken from the canal for the benefit of private individuals. The trifling revenue that the canal fund of the State receives for the rent of the water, is no equivalent for the loss incurred by the obstruction of navi¬ gation and consequent depreciation of tolls.

In what respect could it be more difficult, or rather, why should it not be easier, to blockade Sitka or St. Thomas, than to seal up the ports of our coast ? With the present appliances of naval warfare, any works we should be likely to erect on these outposts would be a mere pasteboard protection.-.

In connection with the above we call the attention to the new udver’ tisement of the Central Pacific Railrotd Company on tlie fourth page of this issue. The advantage of the bonds of this company, as an in. vestment, ought to be examined and known by every moneyed man in country. The low price at which they are sold, for a gold-bearing bond, and the certainty of the security make them as attractive an investment as U. S. 6 per eeut. bonds. £1) e B ankers’ <©a?ette. DIVIDENDS.

Ou the loth in-taut the interest upon ihe June series of Seven-Thirties becomes payable; also tin.1 principal and interest uf the December Compound Interest Notes. The principal is payable in 3 per cent, certificates, for all notes of $5,000 and over, and probably nine-tenths of the. amount will be so disposed of; but ilie interest and notes of denominations below §5,000 are redeemable currency. It is probable that not less than 7-J millions of currency will be paid out within a lew days. The discount market is steadier.

The lowest point in prices was touched yesterday, and the fall has induced orders to-day, which have caused a recovery of per ceut. The London market has ruled steadily York, and at the beginning of (he week bonds were against New ordered by cable for return here. The hesitation of the London market to respond to the decline in gold has a very depressing eflect upon prices here. It is anticipated, however, that upon the arrival of mails containing the documents connected with the opening of Congress there will be a stronger market at Loudon.

The general feeling appears to be that j almost every consideration affecting the value of gold stands at pre¬ j sent in favor of ft lower premium, aud especially the large amount of coin to come upon the market uext mouth from the Treasury. j To-day the declining tendency has been somewhat checked by the the prospect of to-morrow’s export of specie being close upon i SI,000,000. The backwardness of the foreign market for Five- j T wen ties to respond to the decline in the premium has also a ten¬ dency to hold the fall in check.

The latest advices from San Francisco inform us that the track of the Central Pacific Railroad has been laid from Cisco to the of the Sierra Nevada (100 miles from Sacramento) and through the great tunnel 7,000 feet above sea-land. The first pass¬ enger car passed through the tunnel on the last day of November. Twenty-four miles of the track have been laid on the east side of the mountains; and with open weather until the midd'e of December the gap of six miles (intervening between the completed portions) would be filled up and a connection made, so that the travel and traffic would be carried uninterruptedly into the country east of the Sierra, a distance from Sacramento of 130 miles. No further progress has been made on tne vVestern Pacific Rail¬ road, or that portion of the total line between Sacrameuto and Sau Jose, 120 miles. The completed portion is the same as last further) and the Pacific Oceans) in January highest point between the Atlautic and The maximum grade from the foot of the mountains to the summit is but 80 feet to the mile.
