answer to this

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¬

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,

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

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

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.

The market is likely to receive considerable relief within a few

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

The discount market is

almost every consideration
affecting the value of gold stands at pre¬

of coin to come upon the market uext mouth from the

j To-day the declining tendency has been somewhat checked by the
the prospect of to-morrow’s export
of specie being close upon

Liverpool, Nov. 30.— A moderate amount of business l as teen trans
acted in cotton during the week, but, as
produce has been pressed for

per lb., and as regards produce, to arrive, rather more.
Sea Island cot
ton, however, i9 firm in price, and supports late rates. Brazilian cotton
has fallen £d. to ^d ; East Iudian
ju. to ^d., while Egyptian cotton has
changed hands at lather lower prices. The total sales of the week
amount to 57,450 bales ; of which 2,450 baLs are on

The course of the market is affected
a
great deal by the present and prospective supplies by rail.
These are now
interrupted by the storm, but the prospects are
that of flour and corn, and
perhaps wheat, they will be more
liberal than during the two or three

stock of this
particular grade is reported light for the season;
but at the advanced

liberal, and
the finer grades are in fair stock.
Wheat has experienced a movement similar to that in

except on this basis of decline. Other kinds of domestic cot- j
ton goods are
very quiet, but there are only few changes in i
prices to notice. Were there any considerable demand prices |
would recede to accommodate
buyers. Woolen goods have j
slightly improved with the colder weather, and better demand |
for wooi.
Foreign goods ate growing dull. The season is
nearly over for auy especial activity in this department. The
export demand is also rather lighter than usual.

the

working season is-very favora¬
ble, showing that an immense energy has been exercised in their
construction since the opening of 1867, and that we are now con¬
siderably nearer the consummation of the enterprise which contem¬
plates the union of the Atlantic and Pacific seaboards by mail than
is generally supposed.

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.
Work on the rock-cutting on the west¬

slope will be continued through the winter,
