Almost every pursuit is pressing to be relieved of the burden of the excise duties. Some of them are not embarrassed, and hence ought not to be exonerated. If all the pursuits that are in trouble should have the excise dues abrogated in respect to them, the Treasury would soon show an ominous hollowness. What is needful is the relinquishment of the excise, as far as practicable, on oppressed industries, attended by a reasonable increase of impost, so as to give them the home market. This adjustment cannot be accomplished one moment too soon, if so be out of those industries. haust all many Commissioners to look after an exhibition we took no special interest; and whatever may be so therefore, to fear that our trade and commerce may suffer rather than be benefitted by the results of this extraordinary convocation of the works Is there reason, and the workmen of the world ?

John Livingston, Secretary, Ac. Ship Canal.—About 800 gentlemen, including with the delegates from several boards of trade from the States, joined directors of the Huron and Ontario Ship Canal Company at Toronto last Wednesday in a grand banquet. Lieut-Gov. Bross, of Illinois, was the chief speaker, from whose ad¬ dress we give a few extracts, as follows: The extension of our railways during the last eleven years, in spite o the financial crash of 1867-8, and four years of desolating war, furnish an important illustration of the progress of the Northwest, and then our people were rejoicing in the fact that our lines bad at length reached the Mississippi at Alton, Burlington, Rock Island, Fulton and Dnbnque. Then we haa only about 2,000 miles of railway in Illinois and running north and west from Chicago. Since then we have added at least 2,710 Now, with steamboat navigation on and Peninsular roads connect Chicago directly with Marquette, on Lake Superior, some 400 miles from Chicago. With only a break of 40 miles between La Crosse and Winona, soon to be completed,, our railways connect U9 directly with St. Cloud, in Minnesota, on the Mississippi, at Sank Rapids, 640 miles northwest of Chicago. Next week the little gap of 20 miles connecting the air-line of the Northwest road with Council Bluffs will be finished, when Chicago will have a direct railroad to the south fork of the Platte, 795 miles west of the city, and the directors of the Union Pacific Railway promise to have their line 800 miles farther west, reaching the Rocky Mountains, at Denver, by the 4th of July next.- To the sonthwe8t, the Burlington and Quincy, the Hannibal and StJoeepb, and the connecting lines, reach Fort Riley or some point beyond it, some 660 miles from our city. All these great extensions of our railways, t) repeat, have been made in spite of war and financial disaster daring the last eleven years, and now with peace to bless the land, there can be little doubt that the great Pacific Railway will be completed within the next five years, and there will be such a development of the vast fer¬ tile country west of Lake Michigan, in wealth, population and power, as will confound the evil forebodings of all chronic croakers, and more miles to those then in operation. Green Bay, the Northwestern than ever astonish the civilized world. Referring especially to the proposed canal enlargement, Lieutenant > . said: Build this canal and enlarge the lower St. Lawrence canals so ag to Governor Bross from the time vessels of a thousand tons burden, and in five years completed the teeming West will as easily famish the hungry mil¬ lions of our race with a surplus of a hundred millions of bushels of ce¬ reals as she now does half that amount. The necessity of this enlargement is manifested by the enormous profits of the great railways, and the extravagant rates of transporta¬ tion, showing that the quantity to be carried forward is so vast that carriers command their own terms. The Warehouses and the mammoth elevators of the latter towns for the last two yeais have been crashed with freight; everything which could be made to float on the lakes and canals has been taxed to the utmost, and proved insufficient to carry to market the products of the West. The canal would lessen the distance between Chicago and all the cities on the western shores of Lake Michigan and New York and Liver¬ pool some three hundred miles. The entire distance between the Georgian Bay and Toronto is only one hundred miles, less than forty of which would be close canal navigation. There can scarcely be acdoubt that a vessel could reach Toronto by the time it could get to Detroit. By it the navigation on the St. Clair River and the Lake, including, of coarse, the flats, the Detroit River, Lake Erie and the Welland Canal pass it is would be saved.

M., Dec. The Money 28. Market.—The money market has exhibited during the week an unusual stringency. The rate on call loans has ranged at 7 per cent.; and, iu some instances, a commission beyond this amount has been paid. The cause of this changed condition of the a moderate partially set off by the receipts from the Western cities, where exchange still rules in favor of New York. The last statement of the condition of the Associated Banks shows that the banks commenced the week with average resources, and presents no feature helping to account for the prevailing stringency. The banks, however, are probably influ¬ some extent by the consideration that at the beginning of January they will be called upon for large amounts of currency for the payment of dividends, it being estimated that about ten mil¬ lions will be disbursed next week in that way. Statements have freely made to the effect that parties interested in speculations for lower prices in stocks have made combined movements to pro¬ duce a fictitious stringency in the market; and it would seem quite probable that, early in the week, the market was thus tampered with. It is also asserted that large amounts of greenbacks have been locked up by the same parties, for the purpose of producing a “ tight" market ; but of this there is very little evidence. Dis¬ been counts heavy.

There has been no foreign movement of consequence either way; the communication by cable having the effect of bo far equalizing prices between London and New York as to prevent the import or export of bonds, except under extraor•dinary circumstances preventing the markets mutually responding to the changes in quotations. The continued decline in the premium for gold has a direct tendency to depreciate the value of gold in. terest securities, and hence bonds range f below the quotations at the close of last week. S9ven*thirties, which it might have been supposed would appreciate with the decline in gold, have also declined about one per cent, each series being quoted 104., This fact betrays a weakness in this class of securities, which can be accounted for only from the unsettled feeling which pervades the markets and values generally.

The holiday season quiet. always a drawback to business, but other circumstances at present having an unfavorable influence. Prominent among these are the interruption of cable dispatches and the fall in gold. The large and increasing weekly receipts have also served to depress speculative movements. Holders, however, are firm, believing that the fall in gold is only tem¬ porary, and that the increased receipts furnish no indication of the extent of this year’s crop, since the necessities of the South have lead them to push their cctton forward more rapidly than usual. The fact that, even with the large re¬ ceipts of the past three weeks, the total this year is still about 100,000 bales below last year’s figures, is used in support of the idea of a decidedly short crop. Until to-day prices have, in sympathy with the decline in gold, ruled about one cent in currency below our last quotations ; to-day, without any special activity, there is a recovery of a half cent. The sale* of the week have been only about 7,000 bales. The following are the closing quotations : N.

A small trade has been done in fancy styles of dress goods suitable for the holidays. The movement in importers hands is simply the disposure of remnents of the season’s business at much reduced prices. Manchester Cotton Yarn and Good-V Market, London Wool Sales, etc.—In reference to these markets, our correspondent in Lon¬ don writes as follows : 12.—During the present week there has been a considerable increase in the demand both for yarns and cloth. Shipping yarns have changed hands freely, and have been disposed of at a slight advance in prices, and as regards home-trade yarns, the quotations have experienced a rise of ^d per lb. Spinners have, in some instances, demanded a further advance, but have not succeeded in obtaining a greater improvement than that above noticed. For cloth, there has been an improved as well as more general demand, but there is no gen¬ eral advance in prices. In some instances, rather more favorable terras are realized ; but an improved range of prices can only be noticed as regards a few particular makes. The market, however, must be con sidered firm at fully the prices of last week. The advices at hand from India, China and Austria are by no means satisfactory.
