They would argue that the injury to planters

consequently they could safely hold their cotton until next

result would be extraordinary
shipments of specie, with all
the evils of wide fluctuations in the

It has been urged in
Congres that this immediate repeal
of the tax would benefit
speculators. The objection appears
to us to be
singularly devoid of force. Only about half a
million of bales have been received at the
ports. A large
portion of this has gone into consumption, and only the
balance is held by cotton
merchants, or speculators, who
have bought it tax paid,
in the event of the repeal of the
tax at once, the holders of this
portion of the crop would
probably lose to about the extent of the tax. Probably
about 2 million bales is yet in the hands of the
planter* ;
and upon this the planters and their
dependents would be
directly benefited by the removal of the duty; and the
amount saved would be devoted to the
production of the
next crop, the support of the
negro population, or the pur¬

Besides, the less needy class of

Southern planter have been
seriously diminished. His
capital has been impaired and his credit is almost gone—a
most material
consideration, w hen it is remembered that the
crop is raised almost entirely upon credit. The war has left
behind a condition of
universally high prices, which involves
a
doubling of the former cost of planting and marketing the

of a heavy outflow of gold during the two previous
weeks, and the increasing demand for accommodation, it is believed by
many that we shall witness a rise in the rates of discount. To a great ex¬
tent the late heavy withdrawals of gold from this
country have been
caused by the conversion of the Spanish Passive stock into a new
three
per cent. Spanish stock, with a cash payment Many holders of Spanish
Passive stock strongly objected to the cash
payment as an iniquitous
proceeding on the part of the Spanish government towards the bond¬
holders ; but Spain was, and is, urgently in want of
money, and she was
determined to obtain a portion of the sums required even at a sacrifice
of character. The Spanish Passive bond-holders were
willing to convert
their stock into new three per cent, stock, without a cash
payment, but
the Spanish government have insisted on the cash
payment being made
as the necessary means for conversion.
The caee simply stands thus—
that if a holder of Spanish Passive stock desires to convert the
security
he holds into a new three per cent, stock, he can
only do it by paying a
certain per centage in cash.
The Spanish government become, indeed,
indebted to him to the amount of the cash payment, but most of those
who have held Passive stock are unwilling to trust further sums to in¬
solvent Spain. Many persons have, however, accepted the terms and
the cash, which must have glittered unusually bright in the eyes of the
Spanish officials, has been remitted to Paris to liquidate some heavy
Spanish debts in that quarter. This has been one cause of the outflow
of gold. Another cause may be attributed to the high price of
wheat,
and to
heavy importations of that needful commodity. The state¬
imports for the eleven months shows that our imports of wheat

English market Reports—Per Cable.
The
gold ships now on passage to this country from Australia are the
Angle sly with £211,000, the Nineveh with £38,600, the Lincolnshire
with £386,000, and the Kent with £180,000, making a total of £716,600,
of which £249,600 may be considered due.
On Tuesday, owing to the political complications, bills on Italy were
almost unsaleable ; but yesterday a better tone prevailed, and the quo.
tation was more favorable to that country. For bills on Paris, there has
been rather less demand, and the quotation exhibits more firmness.
In the wheat trade there has been no especial feature during the
week. The market has shown rather more activity, but millers, in the
face of good foreign supplies, and with the disposition to contract their
operations, as the close of the year approached, have purchased to a
very limited extent. Nevertheless, good and fine dry English wheat,
and fine foreign produce have been in steady request at full quotations?

From the 3d of
July until the 1st of October, steamers arriving from
were detained at Quarantine, and required to land their
passengers, baggage and mails from the quarantine tug at the Battery,
and to discharge cargo in the stream off the Company’s wharf;
whereby
the current expenses were increased many thousands of
dollars, and our
home freights and travel reduced.
The China Line was inaugurated by the Colorado,
leaving San Fran¬
cisco January 1, 1867.
She made three voyages to Yokohama and
Hong Kong, and is now iu the Panama line, having been relieved in the
China service by the Great Republic and China, which will continue to
make six-weekly trips to Yokohama, connecting at that
port with the
New York and Costa Rica, for H ng Kong and
Shanghai, respectively,
until the Japan takes her place in the line, say about
July next;, after
which monthly trips will be made in accordance with the terms of our
contract with the Post Office Department.
The fourth ship, to com¬
plete the China line, is now building, and is expected to be ready for
service during the spriDg of 1869. I prefer leaving to the
President,
on his return in
February, to report in detail on the organization of our
China Line, and the cost of coal depots, wharves and offices at San
Francisco, Yokohama and Hong Kong; premising that, to this date,
we have expeuded
upward of four millions of dollars in steamers and
depots for the line ; that the receipts from passengers, freights and
Aspinwall
mails
are are in excess of the current
expenses ; and that about one and
half millions of dollars more will be required to
complete the JapaD,
the fourth large steamer, not yet named, and the

The market this week
gradually weakened under large re¬
demand diminished by the scarcity of freight room
and the increased cost of
handling in streets obstructed with
snow, until middling upland sold on
Tuesday at lo^e.—at this
point, with firmer gold, speculative confidence wras renewed,
and the spinning demand
being incre ised, prices became stead¬
ier, and to-day, with some of the difficulties to local
transpor¬
tation removed, the market is
strong hut without any material
improvement. In the dry goods market there is a more hope¬
ful feeling, and
spinners are increasing their production of
goods under the idea that there is to be an improved trade
after the new
year begins. The sales of the week foot
up
12,099 bales, of which 2,803 bales were taken
by spinners,
8,579 bales for export, and 1,157 bales on
speculation. The

Liverpool, Dec. 14.—During the present week the rottoo trade has
a strong downward movement in
prices. The decline
since Saturday last is
considerable, namely, Jd. to id. per lb. in Ameri¬
can ; id. in Brazil; ^d.
in Egyptian,and ^d. in East Indian cotton.
The
sales amount to 67,790 bales, of w'hicb
3,650 bales are on speculation,
11,670 bales declared for export—leaving 52,670 bales to the trade!
The cause of the existing
depression is the pressure of American pro¬
duce, to arrive, upon the market. Annexed arc the prices of Ameticau

the low prices
even at
Bradford—Wool—The market is again dull, with perhaps a
sha le
feeling. Yearns—Iu this branch there is no improvement. The
exporters are as cautious as ever, aud buy in very small quantities.
Pieces—Makers of plain goods find their trade
exceedingly -small, and
far below their power of
production. All classes of goods cun be had
at the lowest rates that have
yet been touched.
Leeds.—The markets present no feature of change from that state of
quietness which has characterised the woolen cloth trade for the past
few weeks.
The business done was generally at last week’s
prices.
Wools in the hands of local dealers are in rather
poor demand, but
prices are unchanged from last week.
Rochdale.—The attendance Of buyers in the flannel market was
small,
and they showed no
disposition to purchase largely. Indeed, operations

were confined to small selections of
goods, including about equal pro
portions of plain and fancy flannels, ihe Yorkshire goods trade ke-ps
qun-t, aud little business was done. The same may be said as to wool
Prices of both wool and
goods ate generally quoted the same as last
week.
Huddersfield.—The market has been better attended, and rnoie
has been done, but still the
aggregate of the transactions ts
not large, and the operations in some instances have
not been of a very
satisfactory character. The shipping trade keeps quiet, and trade has
been slow during the week in the warehouses. The
yarn trade con
tinues iu an
unsatisfactory state, spinners having to reject orders iu
business
various instances in
coneequ mce of the prices offered not being remun¬
erative. Manufacturers nave for some time lessened
production, still
stocks on hand are
heavy. There is no noticeable chapge iu the wool
trade.
Nottingham.—We cannot report any improvement iu the demand for
for this market. Prices are maintained, at about last
week’s quotations. Silks continue to show increased
firmness. A few
moderate orders have been given for brown
nets, but the demaud is
cotton yarns
only partial, arid prices
are
irregular.
Dundee.—The flax market continues very dull, and business in
goods
on the
spot continues to be on a very limited scale, at prices tending in
favor of buyers. Holders have shown more
willingness to meet buyers
where a small concession in
price would lead to business, but the de
cline in prices abroad, and the low offers that are
making of flax to come
by way of Pillau, cause consumers to buy as sparingly
as possible, ihe
demand for tows continues weak, and
prices are nominally unaltered
There has been rather more
inquiry for low codillas, stocks of which aie
now
very low. Fine jute is scarce in this market, and held for fait
prices. The yarn market continues excessively dull, and business is uu
a
very restricted scale.

Pough¬
keepsie and Albany has been completed ; and the whole road is now
a continuous double track from New York to Albany.
Dutchess and Columbia County ^Railroad.—The whole line
is now under contract, aud work is being actively carried on by a
large fofee of laborers.
Pacific Railroads.—The Secretary of the Interior recently re¬
ported t6 the Senate the number of miles accepted by the Govern¬
ment on each line, viz : Union Pacific (main stem) 510; Union
Pacific (E. D.) 305; Union Pacific (Central Branch) 80; Central
Pacific (of California) 118 ; and Western Pacifie (Calif.) 20—total
1,013 miles. The actual length now completed is about 200 miles
additional, making the whole about 1,200 miles.
Raritan and Delaware Bay Railroad.—This company have
given notice that application will be made to the uext Legislature
for a supplement to their charter to extend their line to the Dela¬
ware River, and legalize their railroad as at present constructed.
It will be remembered that the New Jersey courts have condemned
their Atsion line connecting with the Camden and Atlantic Rail¬
road, and furnishing a through line between New York and Phila¬
delphia. The New Jersey monopoly companies prompted this de¬
cision, and will undoubtedly oppose the prosecution of the projected
improvement.
