THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY.

Notwithstanding the uncertainty which has prevailed
during the week as to who should be the Secretary of the
Treasury under the new administration, there has been a
buoyant confidence in financial circles; and when on Thurs¬
day it was announced that Mr. George S. Boutwell, of
Massachusetts, would take the vacant office, there was an
almost immediate advance in Government bonds both here
and in London.
Nor is this to be wondered at, for Mr.
Boutwell is well known

The public have had unusual facilities for

citizens, the Secretary of the Treasury drew lightly on the
pockets and disturbed but little the sympathies of the peo¬
ple. Ilis patronage was small and his powers were incon¬
siderable. Since the war, however, all is changed. The
subordinates of the Treasury are counted by thousands, and
the patronage of the office is immense,
We have a colossal
debt, and we are going to attempt during the lifetime of this
administration to ease the pressure of this debt by the expe¬
dient of lowering the rate of interest.
Two thousand mil¬
lions of our bonds are afloat, and the Secretary of the Treas¬
ury is the officer whose counsels will guide the legislation,
and whose energies will execute the decrees of Congress
relative to this vast mountain of national obligation.
At
the least he will have to deal directly with that part of the
public debt on which a lower rate of interest is to be put.
Again, instead of being as formerly the great untaxed
Republic, we groan under the heaviest, most vexatious
most inquisitorial and most cumbrous tax system in Chris¬
tendom. To the Secretary of the Treasury we look to give
us fiscal relief.
Iu the Cabinet he is the only officer who
represents our fiscal needs, and he is the only Cabinet officer

with Congress.

purse contains usually some 90 millions of gold.

Movements on
the part of the Treasury have sometimes produced the most
disastrous evils when those movements, though well-meant,
were ill-iudged or ill timed.
Now in Mr. Boutwell we have an officer whose public
record and private character are equally without reproach.
He is too honest to use the vast powers of the Treasury to
disturb financial affairs, either from caprice, or with a view
to make money for himself or his friends.
He is too wise
to recommend or adopt any timid, halting or narrow policy.
At critical junctures of the money market every fibre of the
body politic thrills in response to the doings of the Secre¬
tary of the Treasury, and it is because of Mr. Boutwell’s
proved fitness for the special task intrusted to him that his
appointment is hailed with such general satisfaction and

It is, of course, premature to attempt to sketch out the

distant; but since then there have been but few signs of

not far

an

approaching improveraement. Several foreign loans will be shortly
brought forward, and some new companies have lately been introduced i
but trade maintains

quiet appearance, and the state of affairs at Liv¬
erpool is calculated to lead to much, if not increased, caution. The
trade of the iron districts is still good, and railway iron is in active
request for Russia, India, and America. Tin is also dearer, and has
realized a further important improvement in price, but other depart
ments of business arc very quiet.

principal trading centres. At Cincinnati and Chicago rafcs of
exchange are steadily hardening and are now close upon
figures admitting of the shipment of currency.
Within the last
three days New York
exchange at New Orleans has risen -J- per
cent premium, which affords a
profit upon the remittance of carrency; and receipts from ilnt q uarter may be expected at once.
The South lus been a very heavy buyer of merchandise in our
maikets within the last few weeks ; and as ihere remains in the
interior comparatively little cotton to be realized upon, it is safe to
conclu ’c that payments to New York must henceforth be made by
the return of a large proportion of the currency sent- South some
weeks ago, and hi .herto hoarded by the planters. In view of these
probabilities, it is quite possible that we may have a much easier
market in April than has beea anticipated.
It is not to ve over¬
looked; however, th it thee i3 now going forward a very active

requisition therefor from him; and the report of each association
required, in the same form in which it is made to the Comp¬
troller, shall be published in a newspaper published in the place where
such association is established, or if there be no newspaper published
in the place, then in the one published nearest thereto in the same
county, at the expense ot the association, and such proof of publication

lower, and close very unsettled. Groceries show a marked
decline in Sugar and Molassess, with general dullness.
Tobacco is drooping.
Hides though firm, are less active; leather under large re.
receipts, is weak, and skins are lower with more doing.
Petroleum shows a marked decline, in sympathy
with
lower quotations from Antwerp, and the general depression.
Naval stores are decidedly lower for Spirits Turpentine, which
is in large stock: Rosins lower but fairly active at the conces
sion. Oils remain quiet except for Crude Sperm, in which
we notice 2,500
barrels, for export to day, at $1 90, which

Whiskey

rials are dull. Tallow has been fairly active and firm.
Wool is but moderately active. The second trade sale
yesterday, did not fully sustain prices in the private market.
Freights have been very dull, and rates are reduced to
nearly nominal figures, without prospect of immediate im¬
provement, as stocks of grain are reduced, and higher prices
may curtail the amount of shipments.
Provisions have had a downward tendency, and prices have
pretty generally declined. Renewed speculation in Pork,
yesterday, had but a temporary effect. The close was heavy,

South, <to.—We continue to bear complaints from
some
portions of the South, especially from the Gulf States, with
regard
to the wet weather and wet
condition of the land interfering with
crop
operations. In the same sections also Libor continues scarce. A few
plea ant weeks now would enable the planters to make
good what has
been lost by
the rain ; but we fear that the question of labor will not
be so
easily settled. A largely increased quantity of fertilizers is said
to have been sent South
this season, and some
appear to think that the
nop may tl us be forced, and hence mature earlier,
affording a longer
picking season. This, if realized, would certainly be a great advantags and especi dly so where there was any deficiency of labor.

Liverpool, Feb. 27. — In consequence of numerous failures at Maul
Chester, and of reported embarrassments here, the cotton trade has
been very dull during the present week, and, in s me instances,
prices
are decidedly
lower. In the 4early part of the week the quotations
were tolerably
firm, but, at the close, Brazilian and Egyptian produce
shows a fall in value of about
per lb.
American aud East Iudian
produce are unaltered. The total sales of the week amount to 56,920
bales, of which 9,269 bales are on speculation ; 7,950 bales are declared
for export, leaving 89,710 bales to the trade.
Cotton “to arrive” c ntimies to attract great attention, an 1 after
frequent changes the latest quotations are : American, basis of Mid¬
dling, from New Orleans, ship named 12d ; shipping or shipped l‘2$d ;

GROCERIES.
Friday

The

operation at the date of our last report to
quiet and diminish business have not yet apparently spent
their force. It is not often that we are obliged to record a
week of as thorougly inactive markets and lessening prices
the one under review. The lower figures which have
as
marked the course of gold quotations may be partly respon¬
sible for this state of matters/and probably the exciting public
events at the Capitol during the week may have bad a share
in it.
Whatever the cause, it is seldom that all the markets
within the range of our report gravitate so simultaneously*
Sugars, raw and refined, have steadily declined. Molasses
has been lower, and in both, transactions have been
very light.
Teas have been inactive and prices weak. Coffee without
any movement of importance, but stead}7.
Imports of the week have been small of tea and coffee,
including only one cargo of green teas and one cargo of
Rio coffee. The receipts of Cuba box sugar have been
quite
liberal, and also of sugar in hhds., but of molasses the imports
have been small. Full details of the imports at New York
for the week, and at the several ports since
January 1, are
given below under the respective heads. The totals ar« as

steady decline in Liverpool; and with a good milling demand
and firmer gold, they were able to maintain their position
until to-day, when a further decline in Liverpool, lower gold,
and the prospect of such a decline in Western markets as
will permit the renewal of shipments by rail, a further decline
was submitted to on a small business ; but many holders are
confident of a sharp reaction and lrdd above the market.
There are a million bushels less Wheat “ in sight,” between
Chicago and Liverpool inclusive, than at this date last year,
when prices were more than a dollar a bushel higher and the
consumption much smaller. It is not improbable also that
the increased receipts at the West during the winter, may be
followed by comparatively smaller receipts during the spring.
No. 2 Spring closed at $1 40@$1 45.
Corn has materially declined, although receipts are still
light. The demand is limited to the local trade, and that is
very small.
Oats have also been dull but are firmer. Rye
and Barley show no essential change, but are easier.
Barley
Malt is steady, and Canada Peas remain nominal.

lower quotations from abroad, absence of speculative confi¬

Flour has arrived moderately, and there has been a fair

with a good trade, while stocks have become considerably
reduced.
But a decline of Extra State in Liverpool to 23s.

have caused a pressure to sell, which has resulted in very

really good ground for the belief that prices must decline sufficiently to

Prints show its wonted activity.
The areumer t held by many, that
prints can be manufactured ou a basis of 12$ cents for standard brands
can hardly be a sound one, and should this
prica become established in
the market, we must look for indifference on the part of manufactures,
and the appearance of but few really new and choice styles in the
hands of the j fibers.
Already as we write, we hear of one or two of
the large houses offering a few Lrauds of medium prints—not particn

purchase goods direct from the manufacturer’s agency in
Chicago. It has not heretofore been deemed advantageous
by the leading manufacturers to establish agencies outside of
the cities of Boston or New York, and the great trade ot the
large Western cities has been done through their immense
jobbing houses. If the custom of trade is to change in this
respect, and goods to be sent in the package direct to the
commission merchant in Chicago or St. Louis from the manu¬
factory in New England, the entire channel of the Dry Goods
business will be

changed and New York will hardly maintain
monopoly which she now enjoys.
