If the greater a redundancy of circulation, with the natural consequence of powers of Europe were now ruled as they were, for example, an enhancement of prices.

In proportion as this supersedure pro¬ gressed, the volume of the currency would be diminished, and the value of greenbacks would be appreciated; until ulti¬ mately a point would be reached at which it would be uni¬ versally deemed safe for the Government to resume the pay¬ ment of its notes in gold. How long it would require for the evolution of this result we cannot presume to estimate; for we really consider it quite problematical whether the act will make any great change for the present in the volume of gold transactions. Its advocates anticipate such a result, lhat point, however, we are willing to leave for the test o experience.

But there is no one European country to-day, unless we are to except Spain, in which the government is exempt from the necessity of cajoling if it does not consult the opinion of the public, and there is no one country of Europe in which the public has not already begun to give signs that it will not much longer acquiesce in the actual status of things. If France and Germany, for example, are to keep on foot between them nearly a million and a-half of armed men, and to expend upon their military establishments sums amounting in the aggregate to more than one-fourth of the whole public revenues of both nations, it is but natural in Frenchmen and Germans should sooner later demand that the necessity for these enormous efforts and reasonable that or be clearly demonstrated.

The French announces that the French fleet is now Minister of Marine ready for extensive operations, and that its reorganization as an iron clad navy is fast approaching completion. The questions whether it is not necessary for France to fight some one, and whom it is best for France to^fight, are daily discussed in the French journals, just as they were two years ago after tjie Prussian general disarmament. Of the latter we see symptoms• every suggestion looking to such a result which has been put forth by various governments during the last twelvemonth having been received with indifference. If Europe then be steadily drifting towards a general war, in what quarter is its outbreak to be expected ? of which is a no The conflict between France and Prussia, which was last regarded as imminent, has been growing more and more improbable with every month which has followed the conferences held by Napoleon III. with the Emperor of Austria and his premier, the Baron Von Beust, at Salzburg in September, 1867. Such a conflict, had it broken out in July or August, 1866, while South Germany was still smart¬ ing under the shame and surprise of its overwhelming defeat by the Prussian arms, might perhaps have resulted in breaking up the Prussian schemes for a reorganization of Germany around the Prussian throne. Austria, Bavaria, Wurtemburg, Baden and the Hesses were then really in arms against Prussia; Saxony had not then lost her position irretrievably, and Hanover was in a ferment of hostility to its Prussian conquerors. Had the French then crossed the I^hine as the allies of South German independencies they year 744 THE CHRONICLE. might possibly have been welcomed, and their work achieved. But when Napoleon III visited Austria in September, 1867, he had abundant occasion to satisfy himself that the French opportunity of 1866 had gone by never to return; that the expulsion of Austria from Germany had been accepted by Austria herself as an irretrievable fact; and that the hope of a real German unity had pretty thoroughly mastered, even in Bavaria and Wurtemberg, the traditional dislike of the Catholic South Germans for their stiffnecked, arrogant and Protestant brethren of the North, Napoleon III came back to Paris from Austria, there is reason to believe, profoundly satisfied that any French interference in German affairs would only precipitate the whole German people into the arms o* Prussia. He brought back with him also a new programme of European politics for the new future, a programme con¬ cocted by him in many conversations with the able and farseeing statesman Von Beust, who, escaping from the ruins of the Saxon monarchy, has contrived to find a refuge in the highest post of the Austrian Empire. To this new pro¬ gramme it was necessary not only that France should make herself at once more formidable in the field than she had [June 13,1868. possession of the Imperial machinery at St.Petersburgh, and so resolutely bent on an effort to arrest the progress of to be Austria towards the consolidation of her power on the new basis made for it by the results of Sadowa, that such an out¬ break in the East must almost inevitably lead to a new war between Russia and the allies of Turkey. In this war, should Prussia would occupy at first a position curiously analogous with that held by Austria in the Russian war of 1854; but if the speculations in which we have indulged as to the ultimate designs of Napoleon and of Von Beust be, as we believe them to be, well founded, and if the arrange¬ ments which have so long, as we believe, been maturing to bring Count Bismarck into harmony with those designs have borne their fruit, we may expect to see Prussia also wheel into line with the Western allies against the Empire of the it come, Czar. In that event there can be little doubt that the con¬ flict would result in effecting a complete and most important change in the map of Europe. We should then look to see the policy of Peter the Great and Catherine utterly foiled ; Germany constituted, with the Austria; before consent of France and of Poland and Scandinavia erected into a powerful been; but also that Austria and Prussia should outwork of the West against Russia, and Austria become put themselves in the highest condition of military efficiency; in fact, as she is in name, the (Ester Reich or Empire of the and that all the efforts of the leaders of opinion in the three East. countries should be directed toward The possibility of changes such as these is appeasing the resent¬ beyond a doubt, ments, distrusts and jealousies by which the masses in each and, considered merely as a possibility, they are of such a are animated towards the others.

They are as follows : bar gold 77s. 9d.; refineaole do 77s. 10|d.; Spanish doubloons 76s.; South American do 73s. 9d.; United States gold coin 76s. 2fd.; fine bar silver 60fd.; dore do 6fffd.; fine cake silver 65£d., and Mexican dollars 58-£d. per ounce. No material change has taken place in the Paris exchange. At 25f. no 17|c., there is profit on the transmission of gold to Paris. The Ital¬ ian exchange is more favorable to Italy; but the Austrian rather adverse to Austria. In other reppects, the exchange market has not materially altered. Fine weather, the prospect of an early and good harvest, and large foreign supplies have had thexF natural effect upon the wheat trade. During the whole of the week mufii heaviness has prevailed, and prices have declined to the extent of from 3s. to 4s. per quarter. Should Lhe weather continue fine it is very probable that the speculative holders of foreign wheat will press their wheat for sale, and endeavor to secure the high price now current. Much, however, depends upon the weather. The supplies of wheat afloat to this country are amply sufficient to meet our wants, so that with the prospect of an early and abundant harvest, the tendency of prices must be downward. The particulars of the imports and exports of wheat and flour, since the commencement of the season, are subjoined : ket is features of the present week are the increased rise of 1-J- per cent in the value of Consols. Assisted by fine weather, by the assurance that peace on the continent will be maintained, and by the downward movement in the value of wheat, great buoyancy has pervaded the Consol and other similar mar¬ kets, the result beiDg that Consols have been as high as 96-J-, with the dividend due in July, and that many descriptions of Indian, Colonial and foreign government securities have also experienced an important improvement.

The Money Market.—The week hardly favorable The loans to opened with a bank statement increase of the feeling of ease in money. an $5,612,877 higher, while the increase in the deposits only $4,342,691. The legal tender line showed an increase of $3,188,275; but the specie was $3,532,557 lower; so that with a material increase of deposits there was a decrease in the legal tender reserve. The supply of funds, notwithstanding, has proved in ex¬ cess of the demand, and the rate of interest is generally 3@4 per cent. The duluess of the trade of the city has caused a large in¬ crease of mercantile deposits; and the banks of the interior find so little demand for accommodation that they allow their funds to accumulate with their correspondents here. The demand for money for speculative purposes is quite limited compared with what is frequently experienced at this season. The trade demand is unu¬ sually light. The banks are ready to take prime paper quite freely at 5@6 per* cent; but very little is being made of the better grades. Of second class paper there is, as at all times, an abundant supply; for which rates are irregular. It would seem probable that the present ease in money will con¬ tinue until near August, when the demand from the interior for crop purposes sets in. On the first Monday of July the quarterly bank statement will have to be made up; the banks, however, are not likely to have to make any special preparations, as in April or October, so that the occasion may be expected to pass without pro¬ ducing any derangement of the market.

United States Securities.—Governments have been less active than last week. The unusual speculative activity noted in our late reports has naturally been followed by a sharp reaction. Investors have appeared inclined to wait for a downward turn in prices, or at least, to see present quotations tested, and holders have, in some instances, become sellers, under an idea that quotations might de¬ cline, so that prices have been weak. In the meantime the ^dealers have done little to influence the market in any direction, but, per¬ haps, have been quite willing that prices should fall ^@1 per cent, so as to induce another free buying movement. To-day there has been a speculative attempt to break down the market, simultaneously with a speculation in gold, which was successful to the extent o! about \ per cent on everything except Ten-Forties. There were’ however, ftee buyers at the decline, and this evening the market advanced J per cent, and closed quite strong. Prices have been rather weak in Europe, Five-Twenties haviug declined at London from to 72£, but closed to-day at 72f. From the improved stand that Governments have taken since the the declaration of the Chicago Convention relative to the debt, and the near approach of the completion of the funding process, it is hardly to be expected that they will again decline to the previous range of quotations. Some investors are unquestionably disposed to hold bonds at higher values ; it remains to be seen whether Euro¬ pean holders will respond to this improved confidence.

At the same time, rumors have been circulated of threatened political complications in Europe, which were apparently counte¬ nanced for the moment by the decline of f in Consols. Consider¬ able purchases have also been made by parties said to be preparing in for active upward movement to be made next week. The firm¬ premium has been supported by the increasing scarcity of “cash gold,” growing out of the exports of specie and customs payments, without any sales by the Treasury or any importantant coin disbursements from that source. Notwith¬ standing, there is a strong under-feel ing in favor of a lower premium ultimately, in anticipation of the coin disbursements of the Treasury iu July, nearly $40,000,000 of interest and of principal on Sixes of 1881 being then due.

THE CHRONICLE. Securities.—Governments have been less active Mar. 797 Apr. 900 598 624 463 The unusual speculative activity noted in our late reports has naturally been followed by a sharp reaction. Investors have appeared inclined to wait for a downward turn in prices, or at least, to see present quotations tested, and holders have, in some instances, become sellers, under an idea that quotations might de¬ cline, so that prices have been weak. In the meantime the ^dealers 448 518 646 364 625 714 550 &56 176 May have done little to influence the market in any direction, but, per¬ haps, have been quite willing that prices should fall per cent, so as to induce another free buying movement. To-day there has been a speculative attempt to break down the market, simultaneously with a speculation in gold, which was successful to the extent ol about l per cent on everything except Ten-Forties. There were’ however,^free buyers at the decline, and this evening the market advanced £ per cent, and closed quite strong. Prices have been rather weak in Europe, Five-Twenties haviug decline! at London from to 72-f, but closed to-day at72£. From the improved stand that Governments have taken since the the declaration of the Chicago Convention relative to the debt, and tile near approach of the completicn of the funding process, it is hardly to be expected that they will again decline to the previous range of quotations. Some investors are unquestionably disposed to hold bonds at higher values ; it remains to be seen whether European holders will respond to this improved confidence.

During the last two days, there has been an effort in this way to put up New York Central, Erie, Cleveland and Tol do and Readiug; but on the advance being accomplished large sales were made by the cliqes and prices again were weak.

Considerable purchases have also been made by parties said to be preparing for an active upward movement to be made next week. The firmues3 of the premium has been supported by the increasing “cash scarcity of gold,” growing out of the exports of specie and customs payments, without any sales by the Treasury or any importantant coin disbursements from that source.

The market this week has been dull, though a active towards the close, with prices to-day about from our of last Friday, P. M., June 12, 1868. By special telegrams received by us the Southern ports we are quotations to-night from each of Friday. little more 1^ cent off Early in the week buyers showed great indisposition to operate, and this fact, with continued unfavorable advices from Europe, holders to offer their stocks more in possession of the returns show¬ together induced the ing receipts, exports, &c., of cotton for the week ending freely, and the offerings this evening, June 12. From the figures thus obtained it being in excess of the demand, concessions had to be made. appears that the total receipts for the last seven days have Shipments from Bombay appear to keep up well, being reported reached 3,579 bales (against 4,601* bales last week, 6,441 for the last week at 90,000 bales, against 101,000 for the cor¬ bales the previous week, and 10,950 bales three weeks since,) responding week of last year. Our own crop reports are also very encouraging, while the markets for goods both here and making the aggregate receipts since September 1, 1867, abroad continue greatly depressed. Hence, although our up to this date, including the returns by telegraph to¬ stocks and weekly receipts are reduced to an extremely low night, 2,146,805 bales, against 1,793,679 bales for the same point, there appears very naturally to be a “ want of heart” period in 1866 7, being an excess this season over last among many holders, although we believe the bulk of the stock in this market is still held above our season of 353,126 bales. The details of these quotations. The receipts for thig sales of the week foot up 6,490 bales, of which 2,983 bales week, (as per telegraph) and the corresponding week of 1867, were taken by spinners, 888 bales on speculation, 1,919 bales are as follows : for export, and 700 bales in transit.

The weather has had a very depressing influence had not the business been conducted prudence and foresight, we on on trade, and all sides with due might have witnessed unfavorable state of affairs than now exists. a still more As it is credits have been well maintained, and stocks being reported gener¬ ally lighter than usual on all hands, the auspices are favorable for fair business in the Fall. a The low prices now ruling for many makes of domestic goods, and the still drooping tendency of others that have slightly accumulated during the late inaction, will probably have the effect shortly, of stimulating some speculative pur¬ chases for the next season’s trade, as it is admitted that the goods cannot be replaced at the current rates of cotton. Such action might for a time give a feverish animation to the mar¬ ket, but would probably be followed by a depressing reaction, unless a more decided confidence in the prices of dry goods and cotton should be developed than now exists.
