We were told, it will be remembered, that by the gold note policy vast amounts of coin \Yould be gathered in from hoards, and attracted to the Sub-Treasury, where in some mysterious way this borrowed gold was to help the Government credit. So far, however, very little coin seems to have been deposited in this way. And the seven millions of gold deposits now in the Treasury vaults, appear to be chiefly useful as affording to the dealers in specie, free of charge, the facilities for speculation and for safe keeping of coin, which formerly they had to pay heavily for at the Bank of New York. now to 180 millions.

There are, however, numerous evils which, since the return of peace, have arisen from the large unwieldy dimensions of these demand loans. The chief objection to them, however, is that they prevent contraction, and favor inflation of the currency.

It is more valuable now that slavery has been banished from its borders. The struggle to shake off the burden has been costly ; but the result is well worth all we have spent upon it. It is in this light that foreign capitalists look upon our na¬ tional wealth and public credit. In England especially they are absorbing our bonds with an eagerness which is very significant; and as five-twenties have already risen from 38 to 66, so they will speedily advance from 66 to higher rates: for even at par they will offer a much more inviting invest¬ ment than many of the foreign securities which are competing for and absorbing the unemployed capital of Europe. 11% 12* Mid.

This result was inevitable, for the government could only borrow the large amount it required by offering a rate of interest which would compete with the earnings of capital in productive employment. As, therefore, national securities have, in this way, created their own demand, there is no rea¬ son for apprehending that they will injuriously compete with railroad or other corporation securities.

One of the most suggestive facts relative to the foregoing dividends is that some of the banks having the largest capi¬ tal and the safest, most judicious management seem to earn the more limited profits. Of the dividends on the 80 mill¬ ions of banking capital above represented, the smallest in¬ stitutions carry oft' the largest prizes. THE VALUE OF RAILROAD STOCKS. As yet, we have witnessed none of those injurious effects upon railroad securities which it was predicted, early in the war, would result from the competition of an enlarged issue of national bonds. Many claimed that" as the issue of evi¬ dences of debt by the Government would largely increase the supply of securities, there must be a resulting reduction in the value of stocks and bonds generally. But there seems to have been a misapprehension as to the limits of the de¬ mand. So long as sound securities pay a good rate of inter¬ est they are sure to be sought for; and the danger from an increase of sueh instruments is not will depreciate as that ductive investments. so much that their value they will draw capital away from pro¬ It has been the cardinal evil connected with the increase of the national debt that it has offered draw an inducement to with¬ capital from industrial or trading investments into a non-productive loan. In this way, but properly speaking in no other, has the creation of three thousand millions of nation¬ al securities tended to depreciate the value of other securi¬ to lessen the risks of business, from these considerations, that railroad likely to be materially affected in value by the competition of United States bonds. It is deserving, however, of note, that the issuing of national securities has been productive of changes in the distribution of railroad stocks which affect materially market operations in that class of shares. Railroad stocks are now no longer held by the community generally, but are in the hands chiefly of brokers, and railroad capitalists and managers, who con¬ stantly have a large proportion of them under hypotheca¬ tion with banks and private bankers. This new distribu¬ tion materially modifies speculative operations in stocks. Speculative cliques have 110 longer that inevitable dupe, the “ outside public,” to feed upon; and their operations have degenerated into a system of expert tactics for preying upon each other. Under this new condition of affairs, prices are, perhaps, likely to be more uniform than when the imperfectly informed public were more liable to be drawn into wild speculations. It cannot, however, be said that because railroad stocks have passed more largely into the control of those con¬ nected with the management of the road, we must therefore apprehend a depreciation of their value. The fact of those in the management of the roads having acquired an enlarged interest in them naturally gives a guarantee that their affairs will be conducted with greater efficiency ; while it must also be accepted as an emphatic expression of opinion in favor of the future value of this class ol stocks, by those most com¬ petent to form a judgment. These inferences, however, must be subject to a certain reservation; for, in not a few instances, directors have acquired a large interest in their roads to enable them to promote schemes actually adverse to the interests of the company they represent. The fact that the Express Companies consist mostly of capitalists holding a controlling interest in trunk lines may serve as an illustration of the way in which a road is at times injured by those who hold a large proportion of its stock. While it would be rash to deny that the Expresses are a great public convenience, yet it cannot be disputed that their enormous an¬ nual profits prove that the railroad companies grant them needlessly liberal terms, and thereby virtually transfer to those organizations profits which might be obtained in behalf of railw ay stockholders. So long as this abuse of the pow er of directors is continued, railroad shares so affected must be deprived of a portion of their rightful value. The most important consideration affecting the value of railroad securities is the prospect of their future earnings.

The blockade of that important outlet for Western produce not only forced an increased amount of freights over the Eastward routes, but by removing competition enabled the roads to largely en¬ hance their rates of transportation. This temporary monop¬ oly has enabled most of the roads to pay dividends; and their stocks have advanced to to a price justifiable only by the prospect of their having reached a permanent dividend-pay¬ ing basis. Many of the roads have reduced their debts, im¬ proved their roadway, increased their rolling stock and placed their works in a generally effective position, which are very material considerations in estimating the value of The question of chief importance is whether, in stocks. spite of these improvements, the reopening of the Mississippi route, when fully provided with steamers, will not remand many of the roads back into a non-dividend-paying condi¬ tion ? The roads connecting w ith the East will inevitably suffer a diminution in the amount of their traffic; and the river competition will materially reduce the rates of freight. The result of this competition is already show ing itself in a decline of the current earnings of the leading roads. At the same time, it is necessary to set off against these disadvan¬ tages the fact that the steady decline in prices and the inevi¬ table fall in wages wrill enable the roads to reduce their run¬ ning expenses, while the natural expansion of commerce will increase the amount of produce seeking transportation. Cer¬ tain roads wfill be subject to damaging competition from the Atlantic and Great Western road, when its arrangements are completed—a cricumstanee which alone might be considered unimportant, but w'hen associated with the revival of river competition is of much practical consequence. Upon the whole, these considerations appear to w arrant the conclusion that, with energy and economy of management, many of the roads may permanently pay a good rate of interest upon their stock. 1863. 1SG4. 533,394 Total New York Boston exported 803.171 775‘581 Philadelphia 51,235 134,893 22,896 8,552 42.307 291,003 23.249 1,769 1,020,747 1,036,915 242,187 791,221 25.608 3.737 993,208 to time. This result may surprise some wiien they consider the large increase of capital supposed to be employed producing Petro¬ leum the past twTo years. It should be remembered, how¬ ever, that, although eleven hundred companies have been formed with an aggregate for capital of 600 million dollars, that capital by no means represents the amount*invested; not more than 15 per cent of that amount, or 00 millions of dollars having been paid up. And were we able to deduct from this 90 millions, the large amounts paid for lands, and the still larger amounts secured by those organizing the com¬ panies for their expenses and trouble, what a little balance would represent all that really was expended in producing Petroleum.

The domestic production for the year is estimated ons, and the consumption of all kinds at 3,900 tons, against 3681 at 1,000 4,100 in 1864. Copper has been very unsettled. On a rumor from London that Spain had withdrawn her pretensions against Chili, the price declined in the beginning of this month from 45 cts to 37@38 cts for Baltimore, and 39@to ct* for Lake, at which prices 800,000 lb3 were sold. Since then there has ben out little business done at improving prices. We quote to-day 414 cts to 42 cts for Baltimore, aud 424(3)43 cts for Lake.

The production of the Atlantic smelters has been equal to that of 1865, viz : 12,000,0)0 lbs. Th"e yield of the mines of Lake Superior this year is estimated at 6,000 tons pure copper, of which 9,00(»,000 lbs have come East.

Those who'are most familiar with the cotton trade of this city, will #not estimate that the spinners have taken over 6,000 bales per week out of this market. The whole consumption of the Northern spinners has not exceeded 10,000 bales per week, and it is a very moderate estimate to say that they have received direct 4,000 bales per week. Therefore, the spinners have taken but little more than 500.000 bales in all, and only 300,000 bales out of this market the past year, which would leave the present stock 300,000 bales, offsetting the quantity burned against the stock a year ago. Consequently the stocks in the princi* pal market of this country cannot now be less than 650,000 bales, as follows: New York, 300,000 bales; New Orleans and Mobile, 250,000 bales ; other markets, including Galveston, Memphis, Char¬ leston, Savannah, &c., 100,000 bales. Total 650,000. The market the past week has been wholly under the influence 700 bales with predetermined speculative movement.
