That such a project has been urged upon the attention of the Secretary of the Treasury there is no doubt; but its success is problematical, for, at present, any such action would obviously be premature and might impede the move¬ ments of the Treasury in other more important directions. a tant THE CHRONICLE.

The first refers to the Seven-thirty Treasury notes. These notes are very popular, and receive their name from the fact that they bear interest at the rate of seven and three-tenths per annum ; this rate was chosen for the sake of ease in calculating the amount of accrued interest, which amounts to two cents a day on every hundred dollars. of which for half a Each note is furnished with coupons, one year’s interst is payable every six months.

Thus in the of 1868 no less than 530 millions of these notes due, and at maturity the holders have the option of claiming Five-twenty bonds for the face of their notes or of receiving full payment in legal tender money. Now the report is, that Mr. McCulloch, if the pending loan bill passes 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 more [January 20,1866.

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. Before we can hope to resume coin payments, the our paper money must be reduced. How much’ for several months us past; and it has proceeded 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 all the methods which have ever been devised for checking the inflation and contracting the volume of a depreciated so we paper money. compound notes there are at present outstanding 180 millions ; most of which have now ceased to circulate as The volume of our active currency has thus been money. lessened to a corresponding extent, and the contraction of the currency has produced and will continue to produce, a9 it Of these goes on, a powerful effect Nor is this result on prices. mysterious or incapable of rational ex¬ planation. It is in perfect accordance with the well-known principles of monetary science. For, as the best authors tell us, there are two things which chiefly govern the depre¬ ciation ot paper money, If activity. currency we or both. first its quantity and secondly its wish to diminish the depreciation of our. must diminish either its quantity or its activity we Such, then, is the problem to be solved in the restoration our currency. We shall lessen its depreciation in propor¬ tion as wre either lower its quantity or retard its activity. 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 of Here, then, we have the problem of contraction completely solved. We see a legal tender note passing through all the stages of diminishing ac¬ tivity, until at last it is, for all practical purposes, as com¬ pletely demonetized and fixed as the United States bonds and RESUMPTION AND COMPOUND INTEREST NOTES. volume of around on monetary spasm may be. themselves. Here, then, is the machinery for contracting our currency. It is a plan which is now in operation. It has stood the test of experience. What remains to be done is to use it wisely. withdrawn, none of us are wise enough to say.

Dividing the above figures by the length of the roads, the questions of disputed ownership of following results are obtained : numerous 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: lost or stolen bonds, none 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.” “ A ease was 59206811864-37. 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. certain sta¬ relating to the results of railroad operations in the United Kingdom and the State of New York in a form easy of comparison.

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 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

The Pulverizer weighs two tons, and pulverizes to dust infinitely finer than stamp work, thirty-four hundred lbs per hour, or thirty six tons per diem, equal to the yield of forty stamps; and the first cost and wear, as compared to this number of stamps, is about one-tenth—the entire yield being fit for amalgamation without further reduction.
