THE DELAY IN REPORTING THE NEW LOAN BILL.
The Committee 4jf

Ways and Means have shown a wise
discretion in deferring action on the new contraction bill
until our most experienced financial authorities in the
great
commercial and financial cities had an opportunity of ex¬
pressing their opinion on its provisions. Scarcely ever in
the history of this country has Congress been called to act
on a more
important financial measure. The credit of the
government, the prosperity of our commerce, the growth of
our industrial wealth, the
development of our vast resources,
thing which has made us to*surpass other nations in
—every
productive power and material well-being is closely connected
with, and may be seriously compromised by, a financial en¬
actment which, by touching the commerce of the country,,
touches the pocket of every man in it, whether rich or poor.
It is not to be wondered at therefore, if a growing and in¬
tense anxiety is everywhere manifested regarding this bill
among all classes of our people.
One of the complaints we hear made of the bill at pre¬
sent is that, as reported, it lacks unity of purpose and is too
vague and indefinite. The amount to be borrowed under
it for instance is nowhere fixed.
In no previous loan bills,
even during the
prodigious expenses of the war, has Congress
ever failed to limit the
borrowing power to a specific amount.
But although we know exactly how much we shall require

borrow, the measure fixes no limits to the authority given
to the Secretary of the Treasury to issue securities or to
pledge the credit of the nation.
Moreover, he is to emit bonds not only for the purpose
of retiring United States notes and other floating obliga¬
tions, but he may exchange any bonds authorized by this act
for any other bonds of the United States.
Now this last
provision is interpreted to refer to the five-twenties, and to
the sixes of 1881, which securities it is urged should be
transformed into one consolidated fund. The magnitude of
this change may be inferred from the fact that five-twenties
amount to $665,370,800, and the sixes of 1881 to $282,645,800, both bearing interest at 6 per cent in coin.
Another explanation of this wide and far reaching authori¬
ty connects it with the foreign loan and assumes that being
intended for European application it is not designed to be
put in operation in this country. The capitalists of Germany
and England who hold some 350 millions of our five-twenties
would, it is urged, be willing to exchange these 6 per cent,
bonds for five per cents, it the latter were to be made to run
positively forty years. Such a negotiation, if successful,
might effect an annual saving of 3£ millions a year in interest
alone. How far these designs may lurk under the provi¬
sions of the bill no one claims to know.
Seme adequate
explanation, however, is due to Congress. If any such schemes
are to be provided for
by legislation, the fact should be
fully stated so that all the mists of incertitude may be
cleared away and the people may know exactly what is to be
the financial policy of the Government.
For our own part, however, we can scarcely believe that
either of these plans is seriously entertained or could be at
present realized. The time for changing the interest on our
bonds from 6 to 5 per cent., or even lower, will assuredly
come.
But before that change is possible Congress will have
abundant time to consider the best methods of accomplishing
to

the work.

And the bill before

us

is intended for

a

very

different purpose. That part of the
which authorizes the exchanging of

first section, therefore,
bonds, except it can be
sustained by more adequate reasons, will run imminent
risk of being struck out. The objects to be accomplished
by the present Congress in this part of its financial legisla¬
tion are of the highest possible moment, and the country
cannot afford to run the risk of having them thwarted by
complications with schemes of doubtful practicability and

policy.

The fundamental great

fault of our paper currency is its
redundancy. Too much of it is afloat, and the over issue has
caused its depreciation.
Whatever diversity of opinion ob¬
tains in the public mind on other monetary questions, on this
point there is none. We all believe that the first thing to
be done, with a view to currency reform, is currency con¬
traction.

gradually and quietly that we have scarcely suspected, as
have seen gold fall, and merchandize fall, and most of the
necessaries of life fall, that to the other causes of this de¬
cline of prices was added one greater and more permanent
than them all—the appreciation of our currency, the gradual
contraction of its volume, the increasing growth of its pur¬
chasing power.
It is a noteworthy and very gratifying fact, that this con¬
traction has been effected without any of those spasms which
usually attend such changes, and is altogether due to the
compound interest notes which have fully justified Mr.
Chase’s anticipations, when he was first induced to issue
them in June, 1864.
They have proved to be at once the
most powerful, the most satisfactory, and the most elastic of

Such, then, is the problem to be solved in the restoration

We shall lessen its depreciation in propor¬

Let us see how this has been done by the compound interest
notes.
These notes, when first issued, move as quickly
hand to hand as ordinary greenbacks; but as interest
from
accrues
they circulate slowly, because they are legal tender only
for their face, and the holder, if he pays them out, loses the
interest.
After a few months they accumulate in the vaults
of banks and elsewhere, and do not emerge from their retreat
to join the current of the circulation except when some strin¬
gency or pressure in the money market summons them. And
at length, when they are sufficiently fat with interest, they
slumber in their hiding place, no matter how severe the pinch

recently raised has been of more
interest than that which is reported in the Washington cor¬
respondence of yesterday’s papers. The following is the
statement, as it appeared in the Herald:

recently brought before the Treasury Department for decision of
considerable interest to holders of certificates of indebtedness and other govern¬
ment securities. The holder of a thousand dollar certificate mailed it to the de¬
partment for redemption without filling the blank space making it payable to
the order of a particular person.
It was stolen from the mail, and sold finally to
a party in Boston, the blank filled by this holder, and the certificate forwarded
to the department the second time.
Both parties forwarding it for redemption
promptly notified the department, and on its final arrival each claimed its posses¬
sion. The department hold that by neglecting to fill the blank the New Yorker
lost possession, and awarded its payment to the Boston holder.”

It may, at

first sight, be questioned whether the Treasury
Department was justified in deciding the question of owner¬
ship, or whether this point should not have been left for a
court of law to determine.
But the ruling of the courts is
so uniform on this point that there is no doubt but the
Treasury Department acted rightly in the business. The
certificate is payable to the bearer just as a bank bill, or a
greenback treasury note. The chief point of interest in this
case is, however, the view it gives of the carelessness of the
man who mailed the document to
Washington for redemp¬
tion without properly cancelling it.
Had he written across
the face of the certificate, as is usual, the words, “ Pay to the
Secretary of the Treasury for redemption,” and signed his
name to this endorsement, the security would have been of
no value whatever to
any other person but himself; it would
have been paid to nobody else; and he would have had a
claim on the Department for the amount, even if the
security
itself was never found.
It was also a proof of carelessness
to send by mail, in any case, a valuable document which is
negotiable like a bank note by personal delivery. A pru¬
dent man would send such papers by
Express, as the com¬
panies are, in all cases of loss, responsible for the full amount.

One of the most

striking results of operating railroads in
Kingdom is the moderation and uniformity of
the expenditures.
The average cost of operations, covering
repairs, material and labor of all kinds, for the ten years
1855-64 was £1,245 or $6,225
per mile, £1,273 having
been the highest and £1,219 the lowest in
any one year.
The average earnings-in the same years was £2,598 or
$12,990 per mile, varying from £2,661, the highest, to
£2,516 the lowest points. The result has been an average
profit of £1,353 (52 per. cent of gross earnings) per mile,
or four per
cent on the average cost of a mile of road.
From these figures it is evident that the
expenditures have
been economized to a practical minimum and an ascertained
sum.
The variations from these averages through ten
years
have been too slight to admit of questioning their
per¬
the United

manence.

America, or at least in New York, the average profits
from operations for the ten years included in the tables
have been only 37 J per cent.
The average earnings per
mile were $9,207, and the average cost of
operating $5,768.
To whatever this higher cost is due, whether the nature of
the constructions operated on, or a want of economy, or
both, the fact is no less important. But still, with the lower
rate of profits the capital invested in American railroads
earns, in relation to the investment, nearly 6£ per cent.
It
is not supposed, however, that this rate
goes wholly to capi¬
tal, as it is the practice of companies in this country to use
earnings, (and in many cases a very large portion of them.)
to extend or improve their
properties. In Great Britain, on
the contrary, new works and improvements are the basis of
new capital, the whole of
earnings going to the capital that
has made them.

LOSSES—DISASTERS IN 1865,
During the year 1865, disasters have been reported at
New York to 1,490 vessels of all classes.
Of these about
500 were total losses.
The latter part of the year has been
particularly noted for the value of the vessels lost. A large
number of steamers principally engaged in the coasting
business have materially increased the list and unfortunately
added a great loss of life to the loss of property.
It will be seen from the following statement that the total
disasters exceed those of either of the last five years.
In
fact no season since 1854 has equalled this in marine losses,
although the increased strength of our Marine Insurance
Companies will render the loss comparatively light to them.

It is with unusual satisfaction that we this year make up and lay be¬

It is the record of twelve months of uncommon, perhaps of unexampled

prosperity in every branch of industry and commerce. This prosperity

This large increase, it will be observed, is

It has

been made up largely of
shipments of lumber, cattle and other descriptions of produce enumer¬
ated in the Reciprocity Treaty, for which
produce the demand of the
United States was greatly influenced by the same
exceptional state of
things, which, as already noted, caused the great exportation of foreign
goods, brought hither for C nadian consumption.
Whether the treaty
will or will not be renewed, is still a matter of
uncertainty, though
recent indications makes it more than ever
improbable that it will be ;
and should it cease after the end of the term for which it was
originally
nego iated, we have still to see how far the effects of the change may
be injurious to our interest.
That it will be injurious is undoubtedly
the geueral and reasonable opinion of the best
informed persons; but,

Friday Night, Jan. 19.

The Money Market.—The abundance of
money

has not,
anticipated, produced a demand for it.
Speculation
is dull and the street demand for loans
very limited. The
banks and private bankers have very
large unemployed bal¬
ances which
they are unable to put out on temporary loan at
any rate, however low.
Money is hawked around the street
at 4 per cent, but without
finding borrowers; and the pros¬
pect is that matters will continue in much the same condition
until the improved activity which
usually sets in about the
beginning of FebruaryL The supply has been increased by
the payment of the January interest on Seven-thirties.
An1
increased demand is expected from the. West for the move¬
ment of the pork crop.
The opening of the Spring business
at the South may
also be expected to draw a considerable
amount of currency into that
section; and in anticipation of
these movements bankers are disposed to
keep a good pro¬
portion of their loans subject to call. ; It would be possible
to employ a much
larger amount of money in discounts, the
offerings of agents and jobbers’ paper being very large ; but
lenders prefer confining their discounts very much to the
best class of paper and keeping their affairs in an
easy con¬
dition so as to provide for any
possible contingency.
The general rate on call loans is 5
per cent., with excep¬
tions both at 4 and 6 per cent. Prime
paper is readily taken
at 64@7£ per cent.; 4 months bills classed “
good” are cur¬
rent at 8@9 per cent.; for the least known names and
paper
not of first-class
standing the rates vary widely, rangingfrom
10 to 15 per cent.

public prefer investing their surplus means in Government
taking ventures in stocks; indeed the successes
of speculation and the losses of inexperienced dabblers
ap¬
pear to have produced a very general impression in the pub¬
lic mind that, to the uninitiated, Wall Street
speculation
affords much better chances for
losing money than for making
it; and the result is that speculation is now little else than a
changing of securities between brokers.
The course of speculation,
during the week, has been irre¬
gular. The week opened with an effort to put up the mar¬
ket, by the same combination which last week availed them¬
selves of the unsettling tendency of the new loan hill for
putting down prices. The effort, however, has been only
very partially successful, owing to the general lack of sym¬
pathy with an upward movement and the prevailing impres¬
sion that the future earnings of the roads may not support
even
present quotations. There is a general caution respect¬
ing putting out options, especially sellers’; and probably no
important movement will be undertaken until time has elapsed

The market to-day was firm at $11.75 to $12, with a little over 4,000

We referred last week to the favorable advices

regard to the prospects of the cotton planting. Our in¬
formation this week is even more encouraging. The efforts to over,
come the
anticipated obstacles have succeeded, and we have the
promise from many portions of the South of more extensive plant¬

during the holidays, surprised many, while the general disposition
now exhibited to make contracts for the
year is gratifying to all.
On this labor subject a correspondent from Savannah says:

It was feared, during the lust of the two holiday weeks, that the freedman
would decline to enter into contract for service; but we were mistaken.
He
refused to talk of work or think of work while Christmas was on him—that was
a season for relaxation, for
gossip and fun—he would not desecrate it, or depart
from his invariable custom of full and entire enjoyment. And he did not.
But
when the second week came and he saw the end of his holiday approaching, he
began to set himself to work to procure a good place for the coming twelve
months, and ere the week had expired, few were left to complain of the want of
laborers or servants. Here, in this section, Saturday and Sunday saw hundreds

passing through the country, soliciting employment. During the first week, I

says:
Every agreement that I have heard of engages them to an entire surrender of
their time"to the labor and interests of the employer, and a penalty for time
lost, or a forfeiture for all time given, if they throw up the contract. These re¬
strictions would appear potent enough to induce faithful and persistent labor on
their part.

Friday, P. M., Jan. 19,1866.

The

Dry Goods trade is still in an unsettled condition. The
recovery in the price of gold and the firm tone of the market for
the raw material has given strength to the market, and
encouraged
holders of goods in the belief that prices would be maintained.
There have been, however, few transactions during the week and




reported.

Prints have been very

quiet, and there seems no prospect of any
immediate change. There are a great variety of styles in market
especially adapted to the spring trade, but buyers are loth to take

The Pulverizer weighs two tons, and
