PACIFIC RAILROAD has also steadily and successfully carried the Main-Mem Line from the steamboat

navigation of the Pacific to the summit of the Sierra Nevadas, and into the Gr.at Salt Lake Basin ea-toi

shall otherwise provide.”
With this legislation pending in Congress, Mr. McCulloch
will, of course, stop the contraction of the greenbacks until
some further solution of the
currency problem shall be
arrived at. This problem is, in some of its aspects, the
most complicated and difficult which has ever before been
presented to the people of any great commercial country,
its difficulties originate partly from a want of clear, definite
knowledge of the real nature of our currency maladies.
Everybody acknowledges in a certain way that redundancy
is the reason why our paper
money is depreciated.

they are still less intended to undervalue its results. A
fortnight ago we showed that under the powers conferred by
this Act, Mr. McCulloch had curtailed the
currency to a
verj large extent, and although the price of gold and of
other commodities may not have receded
quite as much or
as
symmetrically as some of our mathematical reasoners had
calculated upon, still the working of the law has been, on the
whole, very salutary. Had we not thus diminished the
volume of the
currency we should at this moment, in all
probability, have had gold ranging nearer to 175 than to 135,
for the mass of the currency which wo wanted
during the
heavy government expenditures of the war period was, for
obvious reasons, very much in excess of what is
necessary
now
in time of peace.
One of the too-much forgotten
benefits of the contraction of the currency which has been
effected through interest-bearing legal tenders and by green¬
back cancellation, has
chiefly consisted in preventing
a rise in
gold and in other commodities which would have
been inevitable if, as the effect of war
emergencies had grad¬
ually died away, and the occasion for the use of currency
was
gradually narrowing, the volume of that currency had
not been contracted to
correspond. We do not, therefore
agree with those who think it *an objection to contraction
that it has not reduced the
price of gold. On the contrary
it is by no means certain that the

changes, by the imports or exports of specie, by the supply
of gold in the market, by the
prospects of political compli¬
ed;.ms or short crops in
Europe, by the payments of inter¬
est or the arbitrary sales of
gold from the Treasury, and by
a thousand other
contingencies which shrewd men in Wall
Street pursue, measure and govern their
speculations by, to
the aggregate of hundreds of millions of dollars a year. In

power

face of these facts he would be

a

bold

man

wTho would say

that every movement of reform in the currency must register
itself in an immediate reduction of the gold premium, and

conversely that every rise and fall of the latter indicates
corresponding changes in the former.
Of course we do not say that the
premium on gold is
in no controlling degree
regulated by the redundancy and
depreciation of the currency. But we do say that this de¬
preciation, this loss of purchasing power is one among
a multitude of
conflicting forces, all of which modify and agi¬
tate the market price of gold.
Of these forces, depreciation
is certainly the chief; it has wider
scope than any of the
others; it is that disturbing force without which the others
would lose most of their efficiency.
The real price of gold,
if wTe could fix it at any time, wrould measure the paper cur¬
rency depreciation, and its changes at intervals wmuld indicate
the variations in the purchasing power of our paper money
as a

thermometer measures,the transitions of heat and cold.

But the real

price of gold is not the market price. In great
emergencies we have seen, and we may again see, the twTo
very wide apart.
In July, 1864, the market price of gold
was 285, but its real
price must have been much below that
point as is proved by the fact that the purchasing pow’er of
the greenback-dollarjin the hands of the mechanic who wished
to buy with it food or other necessaries was about as great
when gold was at 285 as a few weeks before when gold was
at 168, or some months later when gold was below 150.
We might just as wisely declare the law7 of gravitation in¬
constant when the sea pours its waters into the Hudson and
reverses its ourrent twice a
day, as claim that gold under all
the tidal perturbations in its market value shall always indi¬
fraction the effects of contraction, and the exact
movements in the appreciation or depreciation of our paper

The

necessity of contraction, its usefulness, and the bene¬

conferred, being thus acknowledged, Mr. Morton
was right in his
efforts to get definite action taken on the
subject. The people of this country believe wflth Mr. Mc¬
Culloch that it is a great evil to have a depreciated paper
currency.
But they are of opinion that there are greater
evils still.
And among these greater evils they reckon the

the principle at stake is of the highest importance,

icularly so to the British government. She cannot
afford to proclaim to the world that neutrals are at liberty
to furnish her enemies an asylum for fitting out expeditions
against her. If she can, then we likewise can afford to
waive our claims, and take pay in transferring to ourselvt*
imthis way her carrying trade on the occasion of any future
war she may be engaged in.
But, let the question be adju
dicated as it will be by an impartial tribunal, and we have
no doubt but that an enlightened view of the duty of neutrals
will be
at

taken, so that a similar issue will hardly arise again

have matured to-day,
namely, on the “ fourth” of the month, there has
been mote activity in the demand for accommodation
; but, considering
the period of the year, the
applications for discount have not beeu to
any important extent.
Dol ing the few remaining weeks of the year,
it is probable that, a
steady demand will be witnessed, and it would
se^m that the

will show hut little variation.

English Market Reports—Per Cable.

Bills of

exchange have been very scarce, and, in some instances, the
quotations are rather less favorable to this country.
In the bullion market the
principal feature is an active demand for
for transmission to the Continent. As there have been no arrivals,
gold
nearly £450,000 has been taken out of the Bank since Thursday morn¬
ing last, and hence the Bank return to be published to morrow is likely
to show a considerable diminution
; but as coin is now returning incon¬
siderable quantities from the Provinces, the decrease
may not be so
great as the heavy withdrawals, which have been alluded to, might lead
one to
expect. The supply of gold now on passage from Australia is
between £700,000 and £300,000, and it i3
probable that the whole of
Ibis will be absorbed by tbe continental demand. lu silver
very little
business is doing. There is no demand for remittance to the East, and
hence the chief busiuess

obstructed condition of the streets has added somewhat to the

of handling; with, however, an improvement in ex¬
change, some advance in Liverpool, a slight decline in freights,
and spinners taking hold with more confidence, the market
has gained strength the past two or three days, but closes to¬
day weak at the advance. The sales of the week foot up
17,446 bales, of which 5,U32 bales were taken by spinners,
11,474 bales for export, and 940 bales on speculation. The

In this table, as

well

as

in our general table of receipts, &c., we deduct

from the receipts at each port for the week all received at such port from other

Southern ports.

For instance, each week there is a certain amount shipped

from Flor da to Savannah, which in estimating the total receipts must be de¬
ducted as the same shipment appears in the Florida return. We are thus par¬
ticular in the statement of this iact as some of our readers fail to understand it.

Friday Evening, Dec. 20, 1867.

The

Grocery Trade has been unusually light during the
week, and confined to the small parcels from second hands to
supply immediate consumptive demand. Some business has
been done from first hands, but all parties are interested more
in squaring up accounts for the January showing than in
entering into any new operations during the. present uncer
tainty of trade. Some broken lots of goods have been sold
at lower rates, but
generally there is a good degree of steadi¬
ness to prices
Imports of the week at New York have been 207 packages
of Tea, 5,342 bags of Coffee, 172 hogsheads and 920 boxes
of sugar, 602 hogsheads of foreign and 3,34 7 barrels of New
