MR. BOUTWELL AND OUR FINANCES.
The monetary operations of the government of
States offer in our reports an anomaly which has
the United
its parallel
in those of no other great commercial nation.
Ever since the
passage of the Sub-Treasury Law, in 1846, the financial ma¬
chinery used, in the receipts and disbursements of the govern¬
ment, has been separated as far as possible from that employed
in the
receipts and disbursements of the business community.
of the National Banks as depositories of the public
money took away some of the evils and disturbing forces
which arose out of this anomalous separation.
But as the
depository system is now less used than formerly, and as it
will probably fall still more into inactivity, there is a change
apprehended in the early future, and a revival, in exaggerated
forms, of the derangement and friction which formerly was so
often ascribed to the Treasury as its active cause. This appre¬
hension may be modified to some extent by the skilful judi¬
cious administration of Mr. Secretary Boutwell and Mr. Van
Dyck the Assistant Treasurer. But it will long constitute one of
the perils of the financial situation, that at any moment the gov¬
ernment may be
selling two or three millions of gold, draw out
of circulation and lock up from commercial use the four or five
millions of currency which is all that is
required by the banks
as a
machinery for effecting their exchangee ©f 100 or 120

balance he will keep on hand.
As to the sales of the coin
received for customs, it is his intention to refrain from sudden
capricious uncertain changes of plan. Other things being
equal be will sell every week about the amount required to
keep the coin balance at about the same level. When the
coin receipts are heavy he will sell more, and when they are
light he will sell less. In no one week, however, will he place
more than a million of gold on the market, and if the inter¬
est disbursements are heavy he may have very little to sell at
all. Still, as we understand him, some sales will be made
every week e.vcept the bids happen to be so low that he deems
it not for the interest of the government to accept them.
Now this arrangement as we said is a very satisfactory one.
There is nothing irregular or spasmodic about it. It will

Had such
a
policy
been followed
steadily out during the last three or four years
it is safe to say that the losses of many millions of dollars
would have been saved to our commercial and manufacturing
industry. The secrecy, the mystery, the harrassing uncer¬
tainty which have been deemed a necessary part of the Trea¬
sury policy, is now given up, and that publicity for which the
country has been waiting is now happily inaugurated. This
is one of many reasons we would cite why our commercial,
and financial men are looking forward with much of hope
and confidence to the results and operations of the adminis¬
tration of Mr. Boutwell.
But this confidence
regards still more the other part of the
Secretary’s policy which refers to the mischievous hoarding
ot idle greenbacks in the Treasury., We are approaching
that season of the year when jurrency accumulates in New
York, the great mercantile and monetary centre of the coun¬
try. Still the South has been absorbing a vast amount of
greenbacks only a part of which have come back here. Forty
or
fifty millions have been drawn into the more active circula¬
ting channels of Southern industry wheiea large part will
remain. This large sum taken from the North by the South
will make greenbacks more scarce here this summer than in
former years. Hence the importance of the knowledge that
Mr. Boutwell will not, aa Mr. McCulleoh did more than once
of cffice, deplete suddenly the chan¬
nels of the circulation by locking up greenbacks in the
vaults of the Treasury.

under Mr. Boutwell’s management, and this fear being
removed, there is more confidence in business circles. Such
are. some of
the reasons for the rise in government bonds
which was developed during Mr. Boutwell’s brief visit to New
York on Thursday. This advance was ascribed to the expec
tation that Mr. Boutwell would buy up some of the gold
bearing bonds for the sinking fund. But this supposition, as
w«e showed last week, is not well founded.
The chief cause
undoubtedly must be sought in the general confidence which
has been resuscitated by the sound, conservative, cautious
policy which the Treasury is expected to pursue as to the cur
rency balance and the sales of gold.

obvious reason for anticipating any important reaction.
The
class of causes which have operated to increase the produc¬
tion of grain in this country have been equally influential in
all the grain growing countries of the world ; and it is rea.
sonable to assume that there is now a larger area of land and
a larger amount of labor devoted to the production of grain

thus far been favorable and reports indicate the probability of

prices for labor, with wheat at $1 35 per bushel, as when he
obtained 82 50 per bushel; and it may be that wheat grow¬
ing is consequently comparatively unprofitable. It would)
however, be unsafe to conclude from this circumstance that

East shall charge less for its labor as represented in manu¬

The foregoing considerations throw some
rays of light upon
the present depressed aspect of business. The quiet of trade
is really, to a certain extent, an incident of a remedial
process,
which must ere long work out highly beneficial results and
produce a generally sounder condition of business. «A down
ward course of values is
always attended with losses to mer¬
chants, the disturbance of confidence, and a more or less des¬
pondent feeling. The capital of some merchants may be
eaten up in the process, and mercantile establishments mav
be reduced, with the indirect
advantage of driving a surplus
of hands from the
distributing class to the producing class.
But, however, severely these results may be felt by those most
directly concerned, yet the process is highly salutary to the
country at large ; it is a recovery from disease; and its issue

them, under the supposition that the stringency in money would
depress prices. The event has proved that the foreign dealers were
the more sagacious, inasmuch as prices improved in the face of th
monetary pressure and have since advanced, so that, at the close of
the month, prices ranged from 2f to 3£ per cent above the opening
quotations. For the last fifteen days bonds have been steadily
going out to Europe, and no small amount of the shipments have
been supplied from “ calls” upon domes'ic dealers, who have had to
meet the demand by purchases rather than from stock on hand.

purchasing bonds for cancellation.

affairs, April has been characterize! principally by a
stringency in money. At the opening of the
month,the banks suffered feiious inconvenience from the withdrawal
of currency by their country correspondents in this and adjoining
Stitcs, usually occurring in connection with the April settlements
s > that from March 27th to April 10th, they lest nearly $9,000,000
in deposits, and had to contract their loans $6,500,0 0. This
movement was naturally attended with excessive rates of interest,
brokers havirg had to pay upon stock loans rates ranging from 10
to 50 per cent, the stringency being aggravated through the Comp¬
troller of the Currency not calling for the periodical statement of
bai k°, which naturally prevented the banks from expanding to meet
the exigency.
The mercantile
community suffered serious inconvenience from
this condition of things, it being found extremely difficult to nego¬
tiate the best class of paper at 10 to 12
per cent, while the lower
grades were almost unsaleable. About the 10th of the month the
funds sent temporarily to the country banks began to flow back,
and currency has, from that time, come in freely from the South
Southwest and West, so that within the last three weeks the banks
have increased their legal tenders $5,000,000 and their deposits
$6,000,000, while the loans remained about stationary; for the last
month, therefore, money has been easy at 6 to 7 per
cent on demand loans, and 8 to 10
per cent on discounts. At the
close of the month the currency balance of the
Sub-Treasury was
reduced to the extremely low figure of $3,500,000; this fact, how¬
ever, appears to have caused little or no uneasiness ;^first, because
it is understood to be the purpose of the
Secretary of the Treasury
to work upon a lower balance than
formerly and, next, because

gold premium there has beeu a steady reaction from the
low figures of last month, the price
having advanced from 13l£ to
134$. The principal cause of the change has been the adverse
course of our foreign trade, and the
anticipation of the remttames
to be made at the
beginning of May, against the coupons of foreign
bondholders. The offer of the Secretary of the Treasury to prepay
the coupons of M ty and Ju'y, with rebate, was but little availed
of i the whole amount prepaid being within
$3,000,(100. On the
29th the Treasury sold, by pubic tender, $1,000,000—the first of
a series cf
weekly sales, to be continue i until further notice. This
sale and the maturing of $24,(.00,000 of coin interest to-day,
have, however, failed to check the upward tendency of the premi¬
um.
O^ing to the incompleteness of the data, we defer our usual
monthly] statement of the specie movement until next week.

THE CHRONICLE.

Correspondent.]
London, Saturday, April 17, 1SS9.
Tiie lapse of abjut a month fro n the present
time will bring us to
the third anniversary of “ Black Friday,” and yet we have failed to
attain that position of commercial prosperity which was peculiar to us
prior to the convulsion of 1866. When Overend’s failed, but few could
have been prepared for a three years’ stagnation of trade.'
Even at
this date, however, there is a great want of confidence in
rcarly all
branches of business, and as regards several department t e greatest
caution is exercised in all bargains relating both t present and imme
diate wants. The heavy decline in the price of wheat this season may
produce, an 1, no doubt, has been productive of much benefit, for
although it has not led to increased activity, the effjct has obviously
been to lessen the burdens of the people, and to diminish the expenses
of the laboring classes, which has suffered
so, much from our diminished
trade.
The improvement which was
appareut in business about the
close of last year now seems to have bean almost if n t <
u.irely lost,
for tha truth is not exceeded when it is remarked that trade is, with

The Atlantic cable has, without
doubt, materially assisted the movement in bonds, and, probably, until
there is less irregularity between the value rof money in London and
New York, large amounts of these securities will be forwarded to this
country in payment of the goods purchased here.
The week has closed with a firmer moa y market, and there is much
le;s depression apparent. Although there was some expectation that
the bank rate might be reduced to 3^ per cent, owing to the quietness
of trade, and to the large supply of bullion at Pai is.no such hope is
now entertained.The following are the quotations for money, com¬

that any
improvement which has really taken place has been scarcely worthy of
the name, and does not amount to more than the fact that produc r§
will not accept less than the full quotations of la t week, which were
then seldom realized.
The better tone of the market which was
apparent at the end of the week seems to have arisen from the receipt
of rather more favorable advices from China, and a little demand sprang
up for both yarns and shirtings, which relieved sellers.
The agreeable
and seasonable change in the weather has also not been without some
influence, raising hopes that some improvement in the home trade may
result in consequence. The stagnation which has existed in this section
of the market has had a depressing effect for some time, an i the large
country trade houses have not complained without grounap. The prosspecte of favorable cereal crops, which are so far good, may possibly to
extent counteract the other adverse circumstances which have
depressed the home trade for some time past.
An account, prepared recently at the General Post Office, shows the
increase of correspondence between this country and the United States.
The number of letters setot from the United Kingdom to, and received
in the United Kingdom from, the United States—-the number “out|and

Respecting the iron trade of South Wales, it is reported from that
district that business has been somewhat quieter than it has beea since
tha commencement of the year; but this is satisfactorily accounted for
by the quarterly meetings, which generally cause a temporary want of
activity in the trade. There is, however, the same hopeful feeling
which has characterized the trade for many weeks past prevailing; and
if Russian and American buyers operate to the extent anticipated
better prices will undoubtedly be obtained before the expiration of the
month of June, This favorable state of things is no doubt anticipated

mortgage bonds, originally issued, was
$300,000—of which $145,000 Were sold—the remaining $155,000 were
subsequently pledged and deposite 1 with trustees as a security for ft
corresponding amount of preferred stock, say $15 >,0i 0. This pre¬
ferred stock is then, virtually, a substitute for that amount of second
mortgage bonds.
As stated above, the
company’s first mortgage bonds, amounting to
$700,000, mature on the 1st September, 1869, while the second mort¬
gage bonds for $ 5,00,009 are past due, having matured on the 1st Sep¬
tember, 1868. Of the coupons representing the in’erest on the first,
and unpail up to March 1st, 1867, there are still
outstanding about
$92,000, and of those representing the interest on the second, and in
the same position, there remain about $22,000. These, with our
past
due bonds are now held
by comparatively few parties, who have sub¬
mitted to a delay in their settlement, until they could be embraced in
the general
plan of the company for the readjustment of their entire
debt, to take effect in September i ext. We are aleo indebted in a bal¬
ance of $28,000 on certain bonds for real estate iu this
city, purchased
in 1853, and
duly secured by a mortgage thrreon, which is antecedent
to those executed in 1855 and 1857, for the
security respectively of
their first and second mortgage
bonds. In the readjustment of our
debt, it would, therefore, be expedient and proper to consider these
real estate bonds as among our first
mortgage bonde, and to be absorbed
by them, that the special mortgage thereto may be duly cancelled. We
would, then, propose to you to consol date and renew this who'e indebt¬
edness by the issue of 16 *0 bonds of $5t 0 each, amounting to $820,000,
to be dated 1 &t
September, 1869, and payable 1st September, 1899,
bearing 7 per cent interest, payable semi-annually, by coupons attached,
to be styled “first preferred bonds
and by another issue of 644 bonds,
of the same date, tenor and amount each, as the first, for $322,000, to
be styled “second preferred bonds,” both to be se:ured by one general
mortgage upon the entire property, rights, franchises, etc., of the companv, duly expressing the order, and defining the ‘conditions of these
preferences, an I their relations to eich other. The first preferred bonds
should then be offered in renewal of, or exchange Lr our old.

Exports of Leading Articles from New York.
&{)e Commercial ®imee.
following table, compiled from Custom House returns, show®
exports of leading articles of commerce from the port of New
York since January 1, 1869.
The export of each article to the
everal ports for the past week can be obtained by deducting the
amount in the last number of the Chronicle from that here given.

Friday Night, Apri SO.
Trade shows a pretty general improvement the past week.
There has been return of confidence in nearly all leading sta¬
a
belief that prices have “ touched bottom/’
and that operations on an extensive scale may now be entered
upon with safety. This may be attributed in part to the
easier money market and the firmness in the gold premium,
but appears to be based mainly on the low and unremunerative prices to which leading staples have declined.
Of course'
there are exceptions, the most prominent of which are Pro¬

Hides opened the week
panicky, and prime dry Buenos
Ayres sold down to 21c. gold, but with an active demand
have quite recovered to 22c. gold. Leather is more active.
Petroleum, though fairly active for export, h?s not been
fully sustained in price, each down showing a decline of a
fraction, but the close is rather more steady. Oils have not been
active, but Linseed Oil is rather firmer.
Naval Stores sliow3
a decided
improvement in Rosin, which has been very active.
Tar h as also sold well, but Spirits Turpentine, with liberal
receipts has been weak and unsettled.
Metals have been inactive, except Ingot Copper, of which
liberal sales for future delivery have been mule, and prices

quiet. Hay has been more active for shipping.
Building Materials show a downward tendency in Brick and
Lumber.
Whiskey has advanced with more doing. Tallow
has been firm and fairly active for export.
Provisions have been depressed and dull, except for such
staples as have been relieved by speculation. The supply of
Hog products promises to be more liberal, as proportioned to
the wants of the market, than was anticipated, and efforts to
reduce stocks weaken prices. The most important transac¬
tions of the week are 2,000 tes
prime steam Lard for May
and June delivery at 18c, and several hundred tes of sweet
Pickled Hams at I5@15^c, a decline of
in both cases.
Some of the speculative holders of Pork closed out, and the
price of prime new declined to $31. Beef has been more
active, but the supply is ample and prices weak. Butter has
further declined, while cheese remains nominal.
Wool has been fairly active and steady.
Freights Lave been dull, and rates have declined to nearly
nominal figures; Wheat has been to Liverpool, by steam, at
a
penny per bushel; and Flour, by sail, at Is per barrel ; and
Corn to Glasgow at If J by steam.

increased firmness as the stocks decrease, and should there
be any revival in the dry goods trade, and consequently in
the spinning demand, it is not improbable that temporarily
better rates would be realized. But as long as the crop
reports are so very favorable and the goods trade so dull,

A corespondent takes exception to the now preva¬

the limit of our
present picking capacity.” He thinks he will be able to
pick all we can bring forward, if the cetton opens evenly,—not “ scat¬

Whatever cotton, then, can be properly brought forward to
the opening of the bolls, can properly be piched, except it may be in
the far Southwest; for every negro man interested will have hia wife
and little ones in at the picking (although they refuse now to go to work'
in the field) and also every laboring white man and woman will giadly
take the large daily hire then offered. H-;nce it would be more correct
to say that the labor capacity will be most severely tested during the
cultivation of the plant, and the amount picked will very largely depend
upon the opening of the bolls.
Probably 4,000,000 bales could be as
e
fciiy and quickly picked, if it opens evenly, as 3,000,000 bales if it
opens ‘.‘scattering.”

January last we made up to the beginning of the year,
shipments overland direct to the mills, the
result showing 193,000 bales so shippe J, which we added to our table
of receipts.
Since then our attempts to bring down this movement to
a later date have heretofore been unsuccessful, because of our failure
to obtain as full railroad returns ns we desired.
Figures received this
week, however, enable us to give a pretty correct indication of the
entire movement.
It will be seen that the weekly quota the mills
have thus taken h?s materially fallen off eince the first of January,
and undoubtedly for the balance of the season the movement will be
on a still smaller scale.
The following formula will show the results
reached. We give the statement in this f >rm as it is in accordance
with the crop reports ; yet our information could not and does not come

Kentucky Leaf has met with a brisk export demand and
full prices have been paid. The sales for the week
amount to about 1,300 hhds, making the sales for the month
of April about 6,000 hhds. Prices are very firm, owing to
the demand to fill the French contract, and the impression
that the new crop has been somewhat over-estimated.
With
an
easier money market holders are disposed to insist
upon full prices.
Seed Leaf has been less active. Assortments are poor and
the late advices from Europe less favorable to shipments.
Besides there is less disposition to speculate on the Cuban
disturbances, as there is no indication that supplies of Spanish
Tobacco will be curtailed thereby. Sales are 100 cases new

COFFEE.
The feature of most interest in the week’s transactions has been
a
large
ral porta
movement in Java
coflee, embracing the stock here and to ariive, aud
that i: Boa ten, in all some 95/ 00 mats, the
operation including also
all tl e Singapore accessible.
The control of the market passing into
the hands of one party, the price for both Java and
Singapore was
advanced some 2c per lb, at which they remain firm. The transaction
was
said to be induced by the high prices at the last Dutch auction,
and accounts of a short crop, and to be
partly for export. Upon the
heel, of this there has
naturally followed considerable activity in East
and West India coffees, in which there has been more done than for
some time
past. In Rio prices have been firm throughout, and for the
finer qualities more especially there is a good demand.
The telegram
from Rio of Messrs. Wright &, Co., under date of
April 7th, which
came
to hand jesterday, reports smaller
rhipments, sales and stocks,
and tends to give the market greater stre> gth. Sales
comprise 21,179
bags of Rio, 235 mat9 of Java (not counting the large speculative
movement mentioned above,) 6.284 bags of Maracaibo, 8,614
bags, 28
casks and 8 brls of Native Ceylon, and 281 bags of
Laguayra.

SUGAR.
Receipts have been liberal, and under the prevailing prices.' Im¬
porters are reluctant sellers, and c ntinue to store their receipts quite
largely.' Refiners have withdrawn from the market as buyers, almost
altogether since our last report, and the greater part of the business
done has been in the grocery grades of sugar. The dullness of the
market carrie 1 prices t own |c, though at the close a firmer tone is obseivjble in the market, aud £ of the Iosh is regained. Refine i
sugars
have steadily lobt ground, and clobe dull at §c decline. Notwithstand¬
ing the present inactivity, the belief in better prices to come shortly, is
fully established among the trade. Sales include 4.837 hhds of Cuba
118 ditto 3t. Croix; 80 ditto Porto Rico ; 94 ditto Barbadoee ; aud 75
ditto Demerara. also, 2,2, 7 boxes.

jobbers:
Brown Sheetings and Shirtings have continued throughout the week
without any important change, while a very limited trade has been done
in the goods.
Prices are rather steady, and few concessions are made
from current rates. The market keeps well supplied with heavy goods,
and in some brands shows an accumulation.
In tine goods less accumula¬
tion is apparent, and a scarcity rather than otherwise is to be noticed in
