past few days add another to the nu¬
merous illustrations of the oft-repeated statement that under
a deranged and depreciated
currency it is next to impossible
to forsee the changes of the loan market which is sensitive
to imaginary, as well as to the ordinary real causes of
stringency. On Tuesday loans on call were, as they had
been for some time before, in fair demand at 6 per cent in
Wall Street. Money was easy, and neither lenders nor bor¬
rowers saw even a speck of cloud in the financial horizon.
Suddenly, however, about an hour before the closing of the
banks, a change came on.
Everybody seemed to~ want to
borrow and scarcely any body was willing or able to lend.
The origin of this sudden pinch, as we have hinted, was
chiefly imaginary. The supply of loanable capital was,
as it commonly is, in excess of the dpmand.
The currency
in the vaults of our banks was ample; the legal tenders
having accumulated to a heavy amount, and the supply of

longer held as a reserve by the
banks and that they would be obliged immediately to go
into the market and sell their compounds or other securities
to get greenbacks enough to serve as their legal reserve.
It was added that all the banks throughout the country were
in a condition of tremulous incertitude, that the country bal¬
ances in our leading banks would be drawn down imme¬
diately, and that the financial prospects of the country were
never so gloomy.
It is no wonder, therefore, that for a short time on Tues¬
day the money market was in a condition verging on panic.
The next day, however, it was discovered that by the excel¬
lent arrangements made by Mr. Van Dyck, the Assistant
Treasurer, all the payments on account of the negotiation of
gold were made promptly, and with apparent ease; not a
single bank made application for an extension; and what
was a still more satisfactory and significant proof of the
strength of the banks, there were no withdrawals of their
temporary deposits from the Sub-Treasury.
A more gratifying circumstance still, in many points of
view, is the rapid recovery of the market from so severe a
blow. The recuperative powers of this country, and the hope¬
ful, resistless energy of our people, substantial stability of

temporary panic. If Congress and the Secretary of the Trea¬

policy which has enabled us during thejpast year to borrow
over 1,400 millions of dollars, and, at the same time, to con¬
tract the currency to the extent of 200 millions, without im¬
pairing the elasticity or the strength of our financial system,
and without producing a single spasm which was not of a
transient, limited and fugitive character, we may still be¬

COMPOUND INTEREST NOTES AS BANK

RESERVE.

Committee on Banks and Cur¬
rency have reported favorably on Mr. Hooper’s proposition
to prevent the National Banks from keeping compound inte¬
rest notes as a part of the 25 per cent reserve required by
law to be kept in their vaults. These institutions are already
prohibited from keeping such notes as a reserve for their cir¬
culation.
But Mr. Hooper proposes to go further and to
extend the prohibition to the reserve held against the depos¬
its also.
Congress has a clear legal right to enforce such an
arrangement but we much doubt its expediency at the pre¬

compound interest notes, as has been fully proved by
facts, constitute the most gentle, elastic, and powerful machi¬

loan market, that has ever been set in operation in any
country for this purpose. By its benign and effective influ¬

especially against a class of wool our own growers do not
produce. Domestic wools do not possess the fulling quali¬
ties necessary for the maunfacture of the finer class of fabrics ;
and, in plain terms, it amounts to this, that if the large
amount of machinery introduced within the last seven years,
for the manufacture of the classes of goods we have been
wont to import, cannot be allowed to have its appropriate
raw material, the mills must be closed, the machinery must
rot. and the goods be imported from Europe.
It is quite 1
possible that the proposed legislation may seriously cripple
domestic manufactures by preventing them from ensuring all
the conditions necessary to success; but it is certain that it
can never benefit the home wool growers through
compelling
manufacturers to use a kind of raw material not adapted for
their purposes. The true policy for the wool growers is to
consent to manufacturers having every facility for getting
the cheapest raw material the world produces.
By that,

The following comparison, showing course our manufactures will be extended ; our enlarged pur¬
gold, at New York for the leading chases of raw material in foreign markets will increase the
classes of domestic and foreign wools, will afford data for price of wool there, which will have the two-fold effect of
comparing the market value of wTool under the tariff of enhancing the cost of the European fabrics brought here to

It appears from this statement that the total for the year exceeds
the tofcil of any year since the war, because of the very heavy dry
good imports last year. Our imports of cotton alone have decreased
about six millions. We now give for comparison the previous years
sinee 1851, classifying them into dutiable, free, and specie* Under the
head of dutiable is included both the value entered for consumption and
that entered for warehousing. The free goods run very light, as nearly
all the imports now are dutiable.

Old Dholberah was quoted at 17$; new
Dholberah and Broach, 16f per lb. From Jan. 1 to Jan 11, the actual
shipments were 61,732 bales against 28,106 bales during the corre¬

-

sponding period in 1865.
Very unfavorable accounts continue to be received from Egypt re¬
specting the crop of cotton in that country. The total shipments al¬
ready show a diminution of 35,000s bales, and very little produce is
coming forward. Hence, the statements which have been in circulation
for some weeks of a probable deficiency have turned out correct, for
it appears certain at the present moment that our imports from that
quarter will fall short of last year by about 33 per cent. At the same
time, the accounts from India continue to represent the cultivation of
cotton as suffering a considerable diminution, whilst seeds are being
cultivated to a greater extent. The prices now being obtained for oleagenous seeds, in the London Market offer a large margin of remunera¬
tion to the grower, and as the Indian ryots feel certain that their cotton
is not of sufficient length and flexibility to compete with the superior
produce of America, they are wisely turning their attention to the
more extended production of an article in which they enjoy a fair mon¬
opoly, Russia only being her great competitor in the market. The fol¬
lowing is a comparison of the present prices of oilseeds with those of
last year:

Stocks.—The stock

mar¬

opened buoyant * under the movements of a wealthy
clique operating for a rise in prices. On Monday and Tues¬
day, prices generally advanced 2@3 per cent, the great trunk
roads being especially firm.
The clique movement placed
reliance upon the'supposed over-sold condition of the mar¬
ket; it turned out, however, that the “shorts” had already
settled the larger proportion of their, outstanding contracts.
The consequent disappointment prepared the street for sym¬
pathising sharply with the pinch in the money market de¬
veloped on Wednesday, as the result of the large govern¬
ment sales of gold, and prices lost all they had gained on
the preceding day.
This morning, the market exhibited a
partial recovery from the decline of Wednesday, prices be¬
ing about 4 per cent higher: but the report of renewed
heavy transactions in gold, by tie Assistant Treasurer, pro¬
duced another reaction, and the market closes on an average
ket

will be continued daily, and on Saturday

morning, such as have been published through

Gold Market.—The government continues to sell

On Saturday last and
gold in considerable amounts.
Wednesday about five millions were thrown upon the mar-'
ket; and since then probably an equal amount has been
sold, making an addition to the supply of about ten millions
during seven days. • Foreign bankers who had been large
sellers when the premium ranged about 40 have replenished
their stock during the government sales, making a handsome
profit by the operation. As the peculiar condition of mon¬
etary affairs in England renders it necessary for this class of
houses to keep an ample reserve for shipments, in the
event of emergencies, the gold which has gone into their
hands will form no part of the supply for customs purposes,
the chief source of demand ; so that an
important portion
of the gold recently sold by the government has simply
passed from one form of hoard into another. The market,
however, is for the present sensibly relieved, an indication
of which is afforded by the fact that 8 per cent is now be¬
ing paid for having gold “ earned.”
The fluctuations in the premium have been slight, the
highest price having been 137% and the lowest 136$. The
supply will be augmented early in March by the payment of
over four millions- of interest upon Ten-forty bonds, due on
the 1st proximo.
The political developments yesterday at Washington were
made the pretext this morning for a movement to send up
the premium ;'the Assistant Treasurer, however, put a round
sum
upon the market, and the price fell to 136^, having
opened at 137 [j.

principal feature in the statement is the loss of $3,
633,033 of legal tenders.
This important change appears
to be chiefly attributable to the withdrawals of currency for

Owing to
the large additional sales made by the Sub-Treasury on Sat¬
urday last and since the decrease in legal tenders may be ex¬
pected to show considerable augmentation next week.

diminishing, while those at Western
markets indicate no correspondinug increase, preparatory to meeting
the Spring demand ; and the question of supply, independent of any
foreign demand, becomes one of considerable gravity.
Provisions have shown an upward tendency in nearly all articles for
which there is any export demand. Pork has been dull and drooping;
the disproportionate quantity of Mess Pork packed, and the limited de
mand for export and home consumption, affords little encouragement to
holders.
Bacon and Lard, on the contrary, have advanced nearly a
cent a pound, and were very active to-day.
Beef has been more active,
and Butter and Cheese have shown an upward tendency. The improve¬
ment in all except barrelled Provisions, seems to be due entirely to the
active home and coastwise demand. The receipts are fully up to for¬
mer years, except in Beef and Butter; but there is little foreign export,
and yet prices advance.
Groceries have not been active. Coffees were quiet until to day
when favorable advices, both from Rio and Europe, led to considerable^
business. Sugars have receded to nearly the lowest point; and the
foreign intelligence is not favorable to an early recovery ; but to day
there was a good business at the decline. Molasses has been active;
several cargoes of “ new crop” have been sold. Rice tends downward.
Teas have been active. Spices quiet.. Fruits have been dull. Fish in
more demand, and rather firmer.
In Naval Stores we notice large sales of Rosin at full prices, and

pretty fair trade, but on the whole business is less
active than last week. The interruption of a holiday has had an unfa¬
vorable effect. The regular merchants seem disposed to buy no more
than is necessary for immediate trade : and speculators find matters in
so uncertain a state that they are loth to invest.
Cotton has been rather excited at a considerable range of prices, the
influence of varying reports from Liverpool. The undoubted prefer

COTTON.

\

The market has been very

excited and irregular. The European ad¬
penny a pound, carried up this market fully
three cents above the lowest p int, and gave speculative holders re¬
newed encouragement to coutiuue to carry stocks, the weight of which
had become a pretty severe burden.
The advance in American cotton, while other
descrip ion9 declined in
the Liverpool market, has lead to some discussion as to the cause. The
reasons, however, are evident, and grow out of the large and increased
shipments from India since the beginning of the year. It 13 well known
that the Surat cotton cann t bo used to advantage except with the
American staple. The increased supply, therefore, of the former has
led to its decline, while less favorable interpretati* n of the accounts
from this side has made the market for American active at higher rates.
The shipments at Bombay, as given by our London correspondent in his
letter published to-day, from Jan. 6th to Jan. 11th, were 61,732 bales,
against 2S,106 bales during the corresponding period of 1865.
This market has not fully supported the advance of Monday and
Tuesday, but closes quiet. Sales of the week, 17,000 bales. The
following are closing quotations :

However, no decided advance can, as yet, be quoted.
tendency of prices which has prevailed for some time,
is due wholly to the impression that this market must meet the Liver¬
pool demand for a supposed surplus. The accuracy of this impression
begins to be seriously disputed. Indeed, the opinion is held by some
that the supplies of flour and wheat are insufficient for home consump¬
tion, as the failure of the crop of 1865 in the Ohio valley, and in the
same lattitude east and west (where our finest wheats are grown), was
more complete than is recorded iu a score of years.
The only quarters
in which full crops of good wheat were raised are the far North West
(where little besides Spring Wheat is grown), and Western New York,
where a large crop is but a small quantity.
Milwaukee, the great re¬
ceiving depot for the Northwest, is now sending wheat to Louisville and
St. Louis. So much for the supply ; now for the demand.
The recular trade of New York was never so large a3 at this season.
