On the other hand, it is certain that the country is paying heavy charges on its debt, and that a great nation like the United States ought to be able in the third year of peace, to sell on better terms long gold bonds, such as we are now giving in exchange for the three years expiring Seven-Thirties. Of these, as has been said, there are at this moment some outstanding. By the original contract the holder of each note may claim at maturity an equivalent Five-Twenty bond; or, if he chooses, he may instead be paid off in currency at par. The Government has no choice in the premises. The choice rests with the investor. Next July, unless the Five-Twenties should fall below par, a con¬ tingency which is very unlikely, these 200 millions of SevenThirties will be transmuted into Five Twenties, and the funding of the debt will be finished so far as it can be done at present. Now, one does not need much sagacity to see in these vast funding operations which are now doing, one cause of the low price of Government bonds. These securi¬ ties are less eligible and less rapidly absorbed because they are not fixed and stable. They are being manipulated, emitted from the Treasury and bought back again, exchanged and transformed one into another, and the market is being constantly fed with new issues. Now, if there is one thing among the subordinate attractions of an investment which frugal people, saving people, moneyed people love, it is stability; if there is one thing they chiefly hate and shrink from, it is instability and incertitude. The Government has to pay for the instability inseparable from the funding pro¬ cess when carried forward on so prodigious a scale as we 200 millions Intermingled with the rumors of impeachment, of the Stanton, the appointment^of General Thomas as Secretary of War, and the changing aspects of the quarrel between the President and Congress, we learn from those have enforced on Mr. McCulloch.

We say again that there is no sition that they are actuated by fraudulent intentions. This system we conceive to be wholly wrong. It implies probability—it is emphatically the reverse of probable— that Congress will really enact anything whatever to disturb that the Government relies less upon the justice of its claims the stability and value of the national bonds, or to expand than its power to collect them, and so .far tends to suggest and depreciate the greenback currency. But what we blame to the taxpayer the idea of evasion.

In many localities mining has been arrested by the giving away of flumes and ditches, while farm work ha-* been retarded by the heavy floods. Ships have been unable to load or discharge, and building ope¬ rations brought to a stand. These facts account, in some measure, for the inactivity of our money market. In the meanwhile, our prospects for large agricultural and mining returns were never more encouragingIt is estimated that the crops for the current j^ear will greatly exceed all former results with tha promise of large and remunerative markets. There cr ntinues to be a good export tra ie requirement for both flour and wheat, r-ven to tne full extent of our ability to supply. The increase of $8,000,000 of deposits in a little more than six months, and and of $1<',000,000 in two years, are sufficient to show that we have been making money and augmenting the value of property with a rapidity unexampled elsewhere. This city has not absorbed all the terrible condition of our-oads, rior almost an “ wealth of the 8tate. In Stnc ton and Sacramento savings banks have been established with the most encouraging results. The amount on better, Five-Twenties have been firm in Lon¬ don, which has helped to sustain the market against an otherwise heavy feeling.

Sub¬ sequently, events occurred in Erie which completely reversed the tendency of the market and produced a very unsettled feeling. ie a application of one of the Erie Directors, Mr. Frank Work, an order was served upon Mr. Drew requiring him to make a statement before the court of his operations on the 54,000 shares On the deposit in those banks exceeds a million of dollars.’"* A New Banking House. — We take pleasure in noticing the opening of the new banking house of Messrs. Mansfield, Freese <fc Brownell, at of stock received from the Erie Company, as collateral for a loan 50 Broad street, in this city. The connections of this firm are veij of $3,000,000 made in 1866, and charging that said operation and extensive, including, among its associate houses, the well known firm the contract under which he received the stock were respectively of Messrs. J. L. Brownell & Bro., of this city, the First National Bank illegal, and were in the nature of a collusion between the Directors of Decatur, Illinois, Messrs. Freese & Co., bankers, Bement, Illinois,and, and Mr. Drew for the injury of the Erie interests and those of its J. M Freese & Go., commission merchants in Chicago. The names of stockholders. At the instance of the Attorney-General of the Mr. J. L. Brownell, who is President of the Open Board of Brokers in • issued by Judge Barnard of the Supreme Court, suspending Mr. Drew from office as Director and Treasurer, State an order also was charges of misconduct in office and breach of trust, and re¬ quiring him to show cause why such suspension should not be per manent. These proceedings were probably intended tor the pur¬ pose of putting up the price of Erie; but the effect has been the reverse. On Wednesday, at a meeting of the Erie Directors, it was determined upon to guarantee the bonds of a new broad guage road, connecting the Erie with the Michigan Southern ; and at the same time representatives of the Michigan Southern Company agreed to place an additional rail on their road making it at the same time both a broad and narrow guage. In this way, the Erie Company intend to secure a broad guage through to the Pacific. This scheme is in direct opposition to Mr. Vanderbilt’s kcombination of roads ; and consequently places Mr. Vanderbilt and Mr. Drew in direct opposition of policy. It is concluded from this position of affairs that Mr. Vanderbilt’s next move will be to secure the control of the Erie at the next election of Directors. This confused condition of affairs has resulted in a fall of 11 per cent, in the price of Erie, the price to-day touching 67£, but clos¬ ing at 69£. The general list has sympathised with this condition of affairs, especially New York Central, which to-day touched 128', but reacted to 131. The market closes 2@5 per cent, below our last prices. ^ <The Pacific Mail Steamship'Company have passed their dividend, also the Michigan Southern Company.

This morning, the adva nee of foreign exchange to specie shipping point produced a stronger feeling, and gold was freely bid lor at 140$. In the afternoon, it was reported from Washington that the President had removed Secretary Stanton,and appointed in his stead Adjutant-General Lorenzo Thomas, upon which the price advanced to 141-f. Later it was announced that the Senate was in secret session upon the matter, and that the President’s action had been referred to the Reconstruction Committee, ou wlvch the price still further advanced, and at 5.30 P. M. was strong at 142^. The activity of the customs demand and the reported probability of an early advance of the Bank of England rate ot discount have a cer¬ tain effect in supporting the premium.

P riday, report for the past week a very excited market Dry Goods, with a material advance in the price of all favorite manufactures. The largest transactions have been in Prints and brown and bleached goods, but the remainder of the list is firm and in moderate request, under the influence of the advance in the raw material. We have to in Domestic The market at present Some brands of brown and is in anomalous position. a very bleached cottons that are so scarce higher range of quotations may be expected. . We deem improbable that stocks were allowed to run so low through¬ out the country as to cause the products of all the principal mills to be inadequate to supply the demand ; but if such be not the case, into what channel have they passed ? The exports are liberal, but are not sufficient to account for the present scarcity; the most reasonable explanation of the pro¬ blem is that large orders have been placed in expectation of this advance, and that the stock is now withheld to give a strong undertone to the market. Thus far the present advance, being based on the enhanced value of the raw material, may produce the most beneficial effect; but if under the influence of speculation it passes the bounds of prudence, the result must be prejudicial to the Spring business. Jobbers and dealers are purchasing these goods so freely that in case the consumption does not come up to their anticipations, they will have a larger stock on hand than can be conveniently carried, and their orders for other goods must be restricted in proportion. Woolens, hosiery, linens, foreign dress goods and ribbons are all rela¬ tively neglected, and we cannot therefore regard as a healthy symptom of a prosperous Spring trade this feverish activity in a few departments of domestic manufacture. The exports of dry goods for the week ending Feb. 18, and since January 1, 1868, and the total for the same time in still it shown in the following 1867 and 1860 are FROM N[EW YORK , Domestics.—» D, Goods Val. packages. pkgs.
