suggestion, as a first step toward resumption, is simply this:
to so far
modify the act, that henceforth all transactions by agreement
made in coiu may be
legally enforced in coin or its equivalent. Banks
in the commercial cities would
immediately adapt themselves to the
new condition,
by conducting their business in the two kinds, naturally
accumulating coin as it became gradually into use, and applying their
expeJiei ts of deposits, checks, clearings, loans and discounts to eath

respectively,thereby at once creating a new currency of commer¬

present one of public debt.

system, being n-'-w based entirely upon the legal-tender currency, would
then of
neecessity prepare to substitute for it the solid foundation of
commercial equivalents. To this work
every sound institution would

general progress.”

buyers in the city from the interior; the shortening of credits
and the expediting of transportation, by forwarding merchandise
through the express companies having caused a postponement o
purchases to a later period than in former years. California buy¬
ers have, however, taken a very liberal amount of goods, encouraged
by the prosperity of business in that State, and the cheap rates of
transportation, resulting from the competition between rival lines of
steamships.
As usual during periods of contraction of commercial operations
there has been much speculative activity in Wall-street. The large

unusually active, iu sympathy with

The

steady maintenance of earn'ngs of
of the roads upon a dividend paying scale for the last two
years, and the reformed system of management promised on certain
leading lines under the control qf an eminent railroad capitalist
have been steadily attracting the attention ol investors toward this
class of securities ; and confidence appears to have been raised to a
point at which a certain amount of stocks is likely to go perman¬
ently into the hands of investors. Many who have sold out Gov¬
ernments at the current high
prices are buying railroad shares*
either for investment or upon speculation. The brokers who
during
the closing months of the year are usually large holders
of stocks,
perceiving this elevation of the standing cf railroad investments;
have not been slow to make their combinntiorts for
advancing prices,
and although the list has been put up 5@10 per cent., it
is claimed
that the upward movement is dest ned to
go much further before
its force is spent.
The total sales of railroad and miscellaneous
stocks at the boards during the month amount to 2.553.889
shares,
against 2,582,910 shares for January, 1867, and 1,760,721 shares

has been more excited than for many months

The

gold market
past. At the begining of the month, the price had fallen to 133$,
in anticipation of the large amount of coin due on the 1st
January,
on coupons, and the Six per cent, loan of 1847,
amounting together
to n arly $30,000 000.
Not only, however, was the exportation of
specie cairied beyond the anticipated amount, but affairs at Wash¬
ington took a turn calculated to unsettle public confidence. There
was at oue period apparent danger of the
President and Congress
commg to an open rupture upon the restoration of Mr. Stanton to
the War Department; measures w^re also introduced into
Congress
relative to reconstruction and the Supreme Court which, in Wall
street, were regarded as extra-constitu ional ; and it was rumored
that the sentiment of Congress was more favorable to currency in¬
flation, and to quasi-r< pudiatory schemes for funding the debt than
bad been anticipated.
Under these combined influences, the price
advanced steadily from 133$ to 142£, but, subsequedtly, reached to
138$, again advancing to 141$, and closing at I4i$. During Jan¬
uary, 1867, the price ranged between 132$ and 137$.

especially at present, when the difference in prices between now
is so great. Thus, for instance, our exports, so
Is are concerned, are codbi 'erably in excess of
last year. The eclared value, however, of the goods exported is much
less; but th s is a manifest advantage to the country, inasmuch as cap¬
ital, which was thrust into the cotton trade, is now available for other
productive industries. Public confidence has been so much shaken of
late that at piesent the public are indisposed to embark in any fresh
enterpiises of an important nature; but when confidence shall have
been restored, it seems almost evi lent that the financial position will be
extremely eoun *. Supplies of most of the articles necessary for our
manufactures will be large, pri es wi 1 be low, money abundant and
cheap; an 1 with all the; e pre requisites, as soon as a start can be made-,
the return to active and remunerative tra Je will be rapid.
Iu the cotton trade there has been a decided improvement, aod a ccn
si lerable am u. t < f business has been transactel. The total sales cf
the week are large,"amounting
97,790 bales. The unfavorable ad¬
vices from the Southern states respecting the prospects of the next crop
have hachan impo tant influence in producing a better market. It now
seems manifest th^t not only has the lowest point been attained, but it
is remarked that there is room for a slight rise in prices.
This however, may be doubted, inasmuch as we are led lo believe that of the
present crop in the United States a very large supply has to come for¬
ward during the next six month?.
Id other quarters the crcp seems to
equal last year’s, and it may theref re be inferred that unless there is a
great increase in the demand for goods, it will be difficult to maintain
It should also be borne, in mini that
any important improvement.
American cotton continues to be pressed f r sale. The necessities of
the Southern planters seems to indicate that, a* regar Is the present
crop, the pressure of American pro'uce on the market will continue
during the season. This pressure ha3 f;r several months been one of
the leading causes of the continue! downward movement in the value .
of cott< n, and as the disposition to sell, so far as we can see at prei
ent, is likely to continue, a decided check is given to any permanent im.
prevement. The less favorable advices, however, from the United
States respecting the growth cf next season gives much firmness to'
prices.
'
In other branches of trade iu the manufacturing districts, quietness has
prevailed. In woci, there is no improvement. The clip in Australia is
late ; but as there will be a great abundance of wool during the f resent
In
year, buyers are likely to have the trade much in their own ban 's.
the ir.n trade there has been great quietness, and some failures are re¬
ported in that department.
The mil luessofthe weather, gcod importations, and large prospective
foreign supplies, have produce! much fl itnes3 in the trade for wheat.
During the early pa it of the week the trade was decide ily heavy, and
although fine qualities were not considered to be lower, medium and
inferior descriptions fell Is.@29. per quarter. The poor quality cf the
supplies of English produce is likely to operate effectively in producing
steadiness as regards fair samples, and good foreign wheats will probab'y maintain their present value. In the face, however, of the large
supplies now rfloat (about 2,000,000 quarters), millers Bre sure to ope¬
rate with great caution ; but they are not likely to be fortunate enough
to make their purchases of good wheat at any important reduction.
Our importations continue on an extensive scale.
The following state¬
ment shows their extent, and also the extent of our exports since Sep¬
tember 1 compared with last year.

exchange have been in request, and the rates obtained indi¬
cate a continuance of the
export demand for gold.
During the present week the export demand for gold has continued
active. All the at rivals, amounting to nearly £700,000, have been
purchased for that purpose, and there is no doubt all the expected snp^
plie3 will be sent abroad. Some
persons have felt surprise that the
export of gold does not make the rates for money firmer; but it is plain
that if only our
imports are purchased for export, the supply in the
country is not diminished, • There is, however, a probability that in the
event of our
importations becoming less extensive, some considerable
withdrawals from-the babk are
likely to take place.
In the silver market there is no
important feature. There is very
little demaud for
oxport; the principal business doing being on Conti¬
nental account. The rates of
exchange at the Indian ports on London
are such that not
only is the export of specie prevented, but, on the
other hand, the
tendency in the quotations is towards a movement of
specie towards London. The transactions in silver have been at pre¬
vious quotations; fine bars
having beeu disposed of at GOfd, and Mex¬
ican dollars at 58|d.
per ounce.
The Consol market has ruled firm, and a
slight improvement has
taken place in the quotations. The amount of ousiness transacted
has
been moderate ; the transactions for investment
having increased. The
of the

improvement which has taken place may be attributed to
the comparatively favorable aspect of home,
and foreign politics,
and the improvement which has, to some extent
taken place in commercial affaits. The

London.—The

weekly circular of Messrs. Belding, Keith A Co., of 80 Lombard street,
Loudon, under date of Jan. 18, says : “The business in the 5-20 Bond
Was this week of only a restricted character, and the larger portion cf
those which have been bought were as lately taken for shipment to
New York.
The stock has from that absorption become scarce, and
the consequence was that people were very anxious to take in stock on
the settling day without any premium.
This, combined with the
advance on the price of gold an 1 proportionate reduction, the value of
the bonds, brought f rward buyers, an i on Wednesday the largest busi¬
ness
duriug the week was transacted. The opening prices on Monday
were 7 If; they receded by Wednesday to 71£, but gained eiDce again,
and close to-day firm at 71£ to 72£.
The 1865 bonds followed all
through the wee*? the wake of those c f U62, and were throughout quo¬
te at 1 per cent. Iee9.
Ten-Forties have not been dealt in largely ; the
quotaticn on Monday was 68^; they receded since -J- per cent., but
closed to-day at 67£ to 68£.
In shares not much was done. Illinois
are now quoted ex dividend, and closed last night at 84£ fo 85£.
Eries
still

scarce

in the market, and the backwardations on them on Wed¬

nesday ranged from 3s. to 9s. per share.
At the high quotations on Saturday last a large business was done at
50 per cent., but they have since given way, and closed last evening at
48 per cent.
Atlantic ani Great Western bonds fluctuate! very much
duriDg the week. They were lowest on Thursday at 22-J- to 23^r for de¬
to
bentures, and 2
for mortgage bunds ; but they recovered yes¬
terday to
to 24 for the former, and 22^ to 23£ for the latter.

disposed to defer purchasing until the stability of the market has
been further tested.
Quotations, however, close generally ^ per

The conversions of Seven-Thirties at the Sub-Treasury are upon
a
comparatively limited scale, the present daily average being about

The amount of Sixes of 1847 redeemed at the

Sub-Treasury dur¬
ing the month i3 about
millions. After this date the bouds will
be redeemed at the pleasure of the Secretary of the Treasury; but
as the bonds will bear the former rate of
interest, it is probable that
holders will be

quite satisfied to have them run on.

The Stock Market.—The unusual

speculative activity in stocks
partially abated. On Monday the market was very active, and
the sales larger than on any
single day since the remarkable specu¬
lation of 18G4. Erie sold up to 78£, Hudson Iiiver 147, Reading
97f, Cleveland and Pittsburg 93, Northwestern preferred 76, and
Rock Island 99£. Thi3, however, appears to have been a tempo¬
rary culmination, for the market subs quently broke, and has since
beea unsettled and lower. The combination in Erie has disposed of
its stock, and closed the account; and cer ain members of the late
clique have this week been steadily attacking the stock to force
down the price to a point favorable to their again buying it in. X°

The Gold Market.—In the absence of

of

importance from
Washington there has been less speculative movement in the Gold
Exchange. There are at present no important speculative interests
outstanding, and the market has consequently ruled comparatively
steady. Occasional efforts are made to break down the premium;
but it is difficult to accomplish the object, and the attempts are
generally given up after a mere fractional yielding in the price.
Gold is now held largely by parties who anticipate an ultimate rise
in the premium, and who are ready to wait quietly for the develop¬
ment of the events on which their expectation is based.
The coarse
financial legislation, and the feeling that the issue between the
of
President and Congress may be raised at any moment upon the
President taking action affording a pretext for impeachment, keeps
the premium strong at figures not warranted by the present supply
of gold on the market. There is also a somewhat general expecta¬
tion that, in consideration of the limited supply of foreign bills
coming to hand, there may be an early demand for gold for export;
and this*idea receives confirmation from the fact that to-day for¬
ne*vs

eign exchange has advanced to within £ per cent, of the rates at
which bullion could be exported. The market is sensitive respect¬
ing certain proposals introduced into Congress looking to an
inflation, directly or indirectly, of the currency.
The fluctuations in the gold market, and the business at the Gold
Board during the week closing with Friday, are shown ia the fol¬
lowing table:

buoyant, has so ruled all the week, and closes at 19-J- for
Middling Uplands, the sales not only having been larger than
for any week this season, but
showing, we believe, a larger
business than ever before done
during an equal period in this
market.
This continued buoyaucy and
improvement in prices
are due to an active demand
which has existed through
the
entire week on the
part alike of spinners, speculators, and
shippers. The latter have been somewhat restricted by the
scarcity of freight room. Perhaps, however, the most encour¬
aging feature of the week is the improvement in the tone of
the goods market, and the
returning confidence among spin¬
ners.
Private accounts, per cable, from
Liverpool and Man¬
chester, as well as the p‘*ess despatches, have also been favor¬
able, while the continued and increasing orders from the Con¬
tinent tend to strengthen the belief that the
present low prices
are to result in

In this table, as well as in our general table of
receipts, &cM we deduct
from the receipts at each port tor 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
partinnJnr in the starement of this fact as some of our readers fail to
understand it.
+ Also from New York 33 bales to
Antwerp and 18 to Gibraltar.
,

% The receipts given for these ports are only the shipments from Tennessee
not otherwise enumerated.
§ These are the receipts at Apalachicola to January 11, and at the other

Kentucky, &c.,

orts of Florida to Jan. 17.

Manufactured is quiet.
We are indebted to Messrs. J. S. Gans & Son for an ad¬
vanced copy of theif circular from which we
quote :
The sales of Kentucky Tobacco foot up
nearly 8,000 hhds. partly
for England, Germany and the Mediterranean, and
part’y for home con
sumption, for the latter requirements, however, mostly low grades
su'table for fillers have been taken, the
prices of which have some¬
what advanced whilst other kii.ds seem to remain
stationary. Of new
crop some Tas been received, but not enough has been sampled to
form a judgment, as a general thing the
opinion for it is favorable.
Seed Leaf.—The principal transactions during the month were in
low grades, of which some 1,000 cases were taken at
prices varying
from 8^ to 6 cents ; 4u0 ca3es Pennsylvania
Running Sorts at from 10
to 14 cents, and 600 cases
Wrapper-1, including some 1864 crop Con¬
necticut and some Binders, at 16 to 50 cents, were also sold.
These sales were mostly for
consumption, the want of suitable stocks
preventing exporters from operating ; a state of affairs likely to con¬
tinue until the new crop is placed on the market.
By opening of Spring
a
lively home demand for Wrappers is anticipated.
In our last report we mentioned the new
crop of Connecticut and
New Y< rk as being satisfactory in regard to quality. The same
we
have learned is the case vith Pennsylvania,
although the yield of ihese
three States has been very moderate. From Ohio our

been rather better; a considerable business was done on Tues¬

pounds of all kinds, (taking into account the new* teas shipped prior to
the first of June last year), the export of Green Teas beiog about one
and a quarter millions over, and that of Blacks four and a quarter mil¬
lions under last season. Receipts to date at all the ports show a further
falling off as compared with last season, and a general impression pre¬
vails that the total export will be under that of 1866-67, though how
much so yet re gains to be seen. The export to the Colonies to date is

Buyers are apparently waiting until the new crop shall make its
appearance, samples of which are now here, and some rumors of sales

Buyers in general have seemed unwilling to pay t e prices de¬
manded f r the new crop. From the samples now here the crop now
coming forward stems hardly equal to that of last year in quality. -Sales

The

sanguine feeling respecting the Spring trode, to which
our
last, has been more fully developed, and the
rise in cotton and the small stocks of
many favorite brands of
domestic manufacture have
imparted a very firm tone to the
market. We have, therefore, to note a material advance in
many of our quotations, and it is generally considered that
there will be a further
hardening of rates during the ensuing
week, especially if the raw, material maintains its firmness.
Jobbers are purchasing very
freely, and the campaign opens
under more favorable
auspices than could have been supposed
a
fortnight since.
The only danger to be feared at
present is that the manu¬
