An injunction was also issued
short time previous to the directors’
meeting, restraining the
any dividends upou the stock issued

Company
state that
they intend to respect that order so far as to issue
the scrip only

ought not to have had the prosperous condition of the road
concealed from them, but should, in all justice, have been
allowed a full knowledge of the facts necessary to properly
estimate their stock ; such information, however, would have
prevented the stockholders from selling to the directors at
low figures, and for that reason it was withheld.
In the latter
case, the public equally suffer from their ignorance of the
affairs of the road ; for they are quite likely, to take from the
directors and their friends the stock they have advanced to
6uch high figures, upon the pretence of the extraordinary
prosperity of the Company. While directors are permitted
to
monopolise information respecting the business of the
roads, they are not to be expected, in the present condition of
public morals, to avoid the temptation to practice upon the
ignorance of the stockholders and the public. The only
remedy is in the Legislature requiring each road to make a
faithful return of earnings and expenses at least once a month.
The New York Central company has confined itself to an
annual statement; had it done justice to its stockholders,
by
making a monthly return of its business, the stockholders
would not have been taken by surprise with this
extraordinary
dividend. Unless some measures are adopted for
terminating
this official concealment, there is no
possibility of the main¬
tenance of public confidence in railroad securities.
WHAT BASIS nAVE WE FOR RESUMPTION ?
Whatever may
be the features of the plan ultimately
adopted for restoring the specie basis, to be successful it must
include a reserve of coin adequate to sustain the note circula¬
tion. It is not our present object to
inquire what maybe
deemed an adequate reserve, but rather to
ascertain, as nearly
as data may permit, what amount of
gold and silver we have
in the country, leaving it for after
consideration, under what
conditions that supply is a basis broad
enough for the resump¬
tion of specie payments.
There is much vagueness in the public mind
upon thid very
essential point; and we fear that to this indefiniteness
the
recent able
speech of Senator Morton may have added posi¬
tive misapprehension.
While the country owes much to the
Senator’s clear elucidation of
many questions affecting rt <
(7)Exported
rather than cautious research.
We
present the Senator’s
language:
own
-
There is now in the treasury a surplus of not les9 than $70,00\000i
and the accruing surplus under the present tariff for the next two years
cannot be less than $100,000,000, which will, together, make $170,-
000,000. iris very difficult to form an es’imate of the amount of gold
in the country.
The Director of the Mint in Philadelphia, in 1861,
estimated the amount cf gold in the country at that time to be $276,-
000,000, which, I have no doubt, was much short of the actual amount;
The Comptroller of the Currency (Mr. Hulburd), in his report last year,
estimated the gold product from our mines, from the 80th of June, 1860,
to the 80th of June 1867, at $411,320,000.
The imports of gold from
abroad
during the same period were $78,933,687. The products of the
during the year ending June 30,1868, are estimated at $7^,000,
000, making in the aggregate $840,263,587, to which may be added the
gold circulation in California, and other -gold producing States, not
included in the above calculation (estimated at $50,000,000), makiDg iu
all $890,253,587.
Deducting the amount of gold exported during the
same period ($477,740,908), leaves a balance of $412,512,679.
There
is also another large import of gold Into the country from Europe, of
which there is no official record, the amrunt of which can only be guessed
at.
I mean that which is brought in small sums by emigrants, who
come to our country at the rate of half a million a year.
I have heard
various conjectures as to the amount thus brought to the country, aod
none have put it lower than $20,000,000
per annum for the eight or ten
years, making the sum of $160,000,000, which, added to the above,
makes a total Bum of $672,512,679.
But, to make allowance for mis¬
takes and exaggerations, I estimate the gold and silver coin in the
country at $400,000,000. The products of the mines ending June 80,
1869, may be safely estimated at $75,000,000, and after that at $100,

incredulous of the result
“to make allowance for
mistakes and exaggerations,” he throws off the very liberal
amount of $172,513,000, and lumps his estimate at $400,000,000. Let us see how near this singularly generous method
of handling figures brings us to the truth, taking the items
The Senator appears to have been
of his own statistics, and therefore,
seriatim.
Director of
The
the
1861, estimated the
stock of coin then in the country at $275,000,000; Mr
Norton accepts that estimate, at the same time having no
doubt it was “ much short” of the actual amount. Mr. Chase,
in
Mint, in
annual
his
report of 1862, gave it as his opinion that
$210,000,000 covered the whole supply. These figures, we
understand, to include the circulation of the Pacific States^
which, taken at $40,000,000 at that period, would leave
$170,000,000 as the supply in all the other States; an esti¬
mate which probably is not at all under the truth.
For the
two fiscal years, 1859-60 and 1860-61, the specie in the
banks averaged $85,000,000. What amount there was in
the hands
of
the
people can only be vaguely estimated.
Considering the preference given to bank notes for their
greater convenience in handling, and especially in large
amounts, it may perhaps be very safely assumed that the
amount of bank circulation, in the hands of the people, was
double that of coin so circulating. The official reports show
that, for the three years next preceding the war, the amount
of bank notes in the hands of the
people, this side the
Rocky Mountains, averaged $163,000,000; from which it
would follow, adopting the ratio of one dollar in specie to two
of notes, that the specie circulating from hand to hand out¬

than the usual excitement respecting
Turkish affairs. I briefly referred to the newTs on Saturday, but it was
then of so doubtful a character, inasmuch as it was only known in the
Stock Exchange, where a panic preva led. The news appears, how
ever, to have been in the main correct.
The G eeks, during the
insurrection in Crete, have given ihe Christians considerable assistance^
at which the Turkish Government has taken offence.
It must, how.
ev^r, he admitted th t Turkey has not adopted the course of threaten¬

remonstrated with the Greek Government respecting the active sympa¬
thy it has shown to the Cretans ; but as the Western Powers, or rath r
Austria, France and England, have urge 1 Turkey to wait a few7 days
before taking active measures, there is yet a hope that ihe matter may
be disposed of without the aid of the sword.
A wrar between Turkey
and G eere may not be looked upon as a very serious matter; but
should such, unfortunately, occur, Greece may secure a p werful and
interested sympathizer, and a gr at strangle might be the result.
If t e trade of the year shouM cl so wbh nine!) quietness, and some
uncertainty, there nee i be no • ecessity for sorpiise, for besides the
revival of the Eastern question, the e appears to be some uneasiness
in France respecting the recent prosecutions of those
newspapers which

Prussia,
though quiet, and, apparently busy with internal reforms, has an en¬

army ready lor any emergency.
Austria has 800,000 men in
arms.
Spain is still in a critical state. Italy is poor ; and the Uru¬

^Manchester state that at the “ present time several
ciicumstances combine to depress this market.
Liverpool is influ¬
enced by increased receipts of cotton at the American
ports, and by
the arrival of imports in the Mersey.
This reacts on this market, and
a want of confidence
produces a certain amount of stringency in money
matters among bankers, commission
agents, and cotton brokers, all of
whom are disposed to act
cautiously. According to present appear¬
ances, the prospects for the future are not bright; consequently those
who require accommodation find
difficulty in obtaining it. Lower
prices will, no doubt, bring ab ut a revival of business and a more
heabhy state of affairs, but the downward process is attended with
trying circumstances. ”

sufficiently explains this condition
Daring last week the banks lost $3,200,000 in
legal-tenders, and the deposits were reduced $6,200,000, while the
were diminished only $925,000.
This condition of the banks,
although not so unfavorable as expected, showed that their resources
had been drawn upon very severely by the South and the West,
and that they were in no position to afford any liberal assistance to
the street. For the last few days there has been a marked falling
off in the shipments of currency to the West, but the remittances
South continue liberal, the amount sent yesterday and to-day being
about $600,000. At the close of tc-day there has been a sudden
and marked relief, money being offered at 7 per cent, currency;
this change appears to have been the result of spasmodic efforts to
encourage buying in stocks and bonds.
Suspicions [have been
entertained, in some quarters, that artificial means have been used
to make a stringent market; but, if such be the case, it is difficult
to trace the movement It is not to be expected that the market
will show much relief this side the quarterly bank statement, bear¬
ing date January 4th. Out of consideration of the convenience of
the banks, in preparing the return, the Assistant-Treasurer will
commence paying out the January coin interest about the middle of
next week; which will obviate, in some degree, the changing of
loans that usually occurs in connection with the statements.
Discounting operations have been checked by the high rate of
interest on call loans, and prime paper is negotiated with difficulty
8@10 per cent.

irregular, the course of prices having sym¬
pathized less with the condition of the money market than might
have been expected ; this circumstance being probably mainly due
to the fact of brokers having protected themselves by time loans.
On Monday the market was taken by surprise at the announcement
of a special dividend on New York Central, including 80 per cent
scrip and 40 per cent, on both stock and scrip. This induced an
active speculation in the stock under which the price touched 162,
causing heavy losses and some failures, in the case of those who had
sold the stock for future delivery. Subsequently the price fell back
to 146i, and closed at 1521.
To-day the market has been some¬
what excited in consequence of reports, to the effect that the pro¬
ceedings against Mr. Vanderbilt and the New York Central Com¬
pany have been withdrawn, and the Erie suits also are in process of
settlement; from which it is inferred that the market will soon bo
freed from obstacles which at present check speculative operations.
Rock Island has been especially firm, touching to-day 112 regular
and 113£ b. 30. Pacific Mail has been active and firm, under an
ticipations of a renewal of dividends next quarter, the price having
advanced to 1201/ against 1111, oar last quotation.

dull. The speculation in Copper and Tin
has subsided, and the former has sold at lower prices. Lead
and Spelter are totally neglected. Scotch Pig Iron is lower,
with large sales of Glengarnock at $40.
East India Goods have ruled very quiet, but are firmly held.
Naval Stores have been without important variation; a
moderate business has been done in Spirits Turpentine and
Rosin, for export. Oils have been weak except for Linseed
Oil; but we notice the sale of 2,000 brls. crude Sperm, for

15,000 brls. and 50,000 cases.

•
Hops, in the face of a good
demand from brewers, a brisk shipment to Europe, and
reduced receipts, are rather weak under a very large stock
and a stringent money market.
Hay has ruled very firm
but
Whiskey has declined,
closing firm. Tallow, at some 9
decline, has moved freely, part for export.
Wool has been steady and moderately active.
Freights have been more active but still rather slow. Bates
have improved for weight but are lower for cotton.
In Provisions there has been continued speculative excite¬
ment in leading descriptions of hog products, and a firmer
feeling generally, both here and at the great packing markets
of the West.
The close, however, is very flat, with some
weakness in prices. It is stated that English shippers, who
bad bought freely for this month and for January and Feb¬
ruary, have been free sellers at the advance, and have made
large profits by this process, trusting to their ability to fill
their orders at lower prices.
Beef and Cheese have had an
upward tendency. Butter is dull, with large receipts.

In
Foreign dried the market has been very quiet and prices have
generally declined. Stocks are large an 1 the demand very limited.
In Domestic dried there has been a little but
probably temporary ex¬
citement in unpeeled half peaches,
originating in an exceptional sale at
Philadelphia, and favored by the light stock here, prices for a day o
two were buoyant; but at the present the fruit can be bought at near¬
ly the old scale of prices. Quarters have improved also, assisted
by the rise in halves* In Foreign green the near approach of
the holidays has enhanced the value of every description and
given
them also an increased activity.

of Bananas and sale at $1 00 a bunch.

noticed in
certain ex¬
tent, particularly speculative purchases, and there has conse"
quentlv been less activity during the present than in the pre¬
vious week. Prices, however, remain very firm, and the ten¬
dency is towards still higher rates. The general aspect of the
market is favorable, and for several years there has not been
more confident feeling, at this season, as to the prospects of
