publication of Mr. McCulloch’s monthly schedule is
looked for by the people at large. The first regards the
consolidation of the debt, and the second the contraction
of the currency.
In each of these respects the movements
of the debt have relations of the closest
kind with
the movements of general business, and the latter are so
languid as to be exquisitely sensitive just now to every
irregularity of the former. Never has there been a time,
however, when the negotiations of the Treasury were adjusted
more
skilfully, or managed with a more successful endeavor
to avoid perturbation to the monetary machinery of the
country. It is indeed a subject of general remark that not¬
withstanding the magnitude of the amounts which by con¬
versions of Seven thirties, and by sales of consolidated bonds,
as well as
by the heavy payments of taxes, pass into the
Treasury from the hands of the people and back again into
the channels of circulating currency, still not a ripple from
this cause has disturbed the steady even flow of the money
market. It is also gratifying to find that Mr. McCulloch is
now advancing with such rapidity in the work of consolidat¬
ing the debt, that the apprehensions of embarrassment which
ourselves and others have entertained from the large obliga¬
tions maturing this year have now passed away.
Of the
August Seven-thirties nearly 33 millions have been taken in
during the month, and at the present rate of progress they
will be all converted before maturity, or at least the unfunded
residue will be so small when the 15th August arrives as to
impossible to compare the schedules of the public
debt as they make their monthly appearance without noting
the simplicity which is gradually taking the place of the
perplexing multitude of securities which used to complicate be

the accounts of the Treasury.

The changes made in the fundamental law of
the
State in 1846 were sweeping and almost
revolutionary; and
as several of them have
proved to be of questionable utility,
much of the time will betaken in considering the
expediency
of attempting further modifications.
It is hardly probable
that serious innovations will be made upon the
judiciary
system, however necessary ; but it is to be desired that the
number of public departments should be diminished.
Many
think that the Boards of Regents of the University, Canals
and Inspectors of State Prisons should be wiped out, and an
efficient and responsible superintending official established in
October.
their
place.
But the
important discussions will be upon the proposed modification of our financial system. The Convention
of 1846 was called for the purpose of revising the financial
policy of the State. The crisis of 1837 had been followed
by severe embarrassments; State stocks had fallen con¬
siderably below their par value ; the public works had been
suspended till credit could be recovered, and the State debt,
owing to extravagant outlays for improvements, exceeded
thirty-seven millions of dollars to a population little over
two and a half millions.
To this difficult problem the Con¬
vention directed attention, and provided a plan of
liquida¬
tion which should extinguish the entire indebtedness
by the
year 1878. The Constitution required that from June, 1846,
till June, 1855, there should be set apart annually from the
revenues of the canals the sum ot $1,300,000 to
pay the
interest and redeem principal of the canal debt,
including
$300,000 then to be borrowed ; increasing the contributions
after that time to $1,700,000 annually.
After complying
with this requirement, the sum of $350,000 was set
apart
every year as the u General Fund Debt Sinking Fund” to
pay the interest and redeem the principal of the general
fund and contingent debts, as well as the debts created by
lend ing the credit of the State. So successful was this plan, that
of the thirty seven millions of indebtedness then existing, only
the following items remained at the end of twenty years—
more
by refusing to contract the currency, the reason being found,
as we
suppose, rather in the languid depression of general
business than in any doubt as to the soundness of the
great
general law that depreciation of paper money is caused by
redundancy, and can be cured only by correcting the redund¬
ancy, or calling in and destroying the excessive issues.
Contraction of the currency is indeed the most delicate
task ever entrusted to
any minister of finance in this or any
other country.
The time of attempting the operation is of
importance. At certain parts of the year this country re¬
quires 50 millions, and at others 100 millions more of cur¬
rency than is wanted during the intervals of comparative September 30, 1866—namely :

Continent the money market remains in the same quiet state
during the greater part of the present year. The fear of war has
necessarily checked any downward movement; but at the leading cities,
viz.: at Paris, Hamburg, Amsterdam, and Berlin the supply is abun¬
dant, and considerably in excess of the requirements of the mercantile
body. The supply of bullion now held by the Bank of France amounts
to £31,222,600.« Annexed are the quotations for money at the principal
cities on the Continent at this date, and at the corresponding period in

India, however, the quotations for exchange have considerably im¬
proved, and recent events, which have transpired, clearly indicate that
the late sudden demand for silver for remittance to the East, resulted
In
the action of the Indian Council,
on one occasion, in advancing their quotations for bills at
one of their
fortnightly sales to a prohibitory point. This demand, however, was
but temporary, and only led to the shipment from this country of silver
to the value of about £250,000. During the last few days, the demand
for remittance to toe East has still further diminished, and bills which
were disposed of at the sale of bills, on Wednesday week, have lately
been re-sold at a reduction of about 1 percent. Silver, however, is very
firm, owing to the uncertainty which exists with regard to Continental
politics. At present, the market is bare of supplies, and those who hold
the small quantities here are by no means inclined to sell.
The West
Indian steamer is now about due, and as soon as the supply she is like,
ly to bring over is ascertained, an accurate quotation for silver will be

The Consol market has been subjected to numerous fluctuations dur¬
that unless further supplies arrive from Australia during the next few
days, further withdrawals will be effected. The sum now due from ing the week, according as prices from Paris and Berlin have been
favorable or unfavorable. During the early days of the week, the quo¬
Australia is £226,000.
The position of our railway companies remains as unsatisfactory as tations were very sensitive, but towards the close, on numerous pur¬
chases by bankers and the public, coupled with a more satisfactory
ever, and there certainly appears to be no prospect that a restoration
of financial order amongst these undertakings is likely to take place^ state of Continental politics, much more firmness has prevailed. To-day
the market has been quite buoyant, and an important rise has taken
except after a protracted period of semi-insolvency. Such is the dis¬
place. The highest and lowest quotations on each day of the week are
trust with regard to railway management, that the general public is
decidedly unwilling to lend its aid. It seems pretty certain that if fresh subjoined:
The
.
capital must be subscribed, in order to meet the existing difficulties, and
to pay off the debentures of those who do not wish to have them re¬
newed, the proprietors of railway property should themselves be the
first to extend the requisite aid. They are evidently the parties most
interested, and if they have a desire to improve their own property, and
free it from constantly recurring difficulties, subscriptions to new capital
should emanate from them.
But before they extend such aid, they
should make it a sine qiia non with the directors that no fresh lines
should be undertaken, and that the strictest economy should be exer¬
cised in every department. During the last few years there has been
too lavish an expenditure, and under the influence of support from the
numerous
finance and
new
banking institutions, many unwise
enterprises have been undertaken. The crisis of May last brought
to light the actual state of things; the credit of a large portion
of the community was lost, as it were, in the course of a few hours,
and those who had money to lend refrained from doing so, for they
knew not whom to trust. The new railways under construction, or rather
the contractors who had undertaken their construction, suffered heavily
from the crisis; so much so that it became necessary to stop the works*
while, as your readers know, several well-known firms were compelled
to suspend payment. Since that period the difficulties of railway di¬
rectors have increased, not, however, from the circumstance that their
liabilities have been augmented, but from the fact that in consequence
of the existing distrust, they are unable to obtain the needed pecuniary
aid. The directors of the Great Western Railway Company have pro¬
posed to the shareholders that they should subscribe,to a new five per
cent, preference stock, to the extent of one million sterling. Promises
of aid to the extent of only £260,000 have been obtained, and the
directors have, therefore, looked upon this system of meeting the present
emergency as a failure. It seems, however, that unless shareholders
themselves make a great effort to support their directors in the
difficulties into which they have unnecessarily run, there is no prospect
of a speedy settlement of the railway difficulty.
In order to show how heavily the shares of our various public com¬
panies have been depreciated since 1865, the year in which new com¬
panies were brought forward in such abundance?^ have compiled the
following statement, which shows the prices of these shares at the most
favorable period in 1866, and at the close of business this afternoon. I
have also extended the comparison to a few days prior to the failure

American Securities have been very
flat, but have improved in value
during the closing days of the week. United States 5-20 bonds have
been heavily pressed for sale on German account; hence, t^e decline
in the
qnotations has been considerable.
Illinois Centrals, Erie Rail¬
shares, and Atlantic and Great Western Securities have also been
dull, and have given way in price. U. S. 5-20 bonds close this evening
at 70$ to 7Of; Atlantic and Great Western railway debentures, 30 to

Market.—The market has shown
a
steady gain in
during the week. The last bank statement showed an increase
$8,054,731 in deposits, of which $2,497,873 was in specie, and
ease
of
and a gain of $2,667,056 in legal tenders.
The loans were increased $3,140,177, chiefly through the invest*
ments of the banks in Government securities, which they prefer to
lending at the present low rates of interest.
It will thus be seen
that the banks commenced the week with ample resources. A con¬
siderable amount of currency has been withdrawn into the SubTreasury during the week, but the banks have neverthless held
more money than they could use at the late rates, and the rate of
interest on call loans has fallen to 5 per cent on stocks, and 4 per
the balance in curreucy,

London and the rise in gold, there have been consider¬
able purchases of Sixty-twos and old Sixty-fiyes, causing an ad¬
vance of i on the former and of £ on the latter.
Conversion operations are still going forward on a liberal scale.
To-day the Assistant Treasurer bought about #L,600,000 of August
Seven-thirties. There are still about #100,000,000 of the first se¬
ries of Seven-thirties outstanding. This balance is largely held by
insurance companies and other financial institutions, and this class
of holders are very generally disposed to retain their notes until ma¬
turity, and to demand in exchange a bond dated from the maturity
of the notes, in preference to converting them into the new Sixtyfives. Included in the Seven-thirties converted last month was
about six millions of notes of the second series.
During the week Sixes of 1881 have advanced f-, Sixty-twos £,
new Sixty-fives £, and Ten-forties £.

fairly active, but the tone of trade circles is still

ation respecting the state of commercial affairs, which is to be
attributed to the unsatisfactory results of the past
year.

of foreign and domestic merchandise:

active, and prices generally show
The relatively low prices of hog products
has attracted some attention from
speculators, and there has
been a decided increase in the demand for
shipment and local
consumption. Lard, Bacon, and CutmeaU have advanced half
cent per lb., with a large business.
The exports of Lard have
been to Great Britain and the Continent., while the Cut meats
and Bacon taken for shipment have
mostly gone South, part
to Freedmeu’s Bureau for
gratuitous distribution. Butter and
Cheese have advanced, but Beef has become
quite dull.
Hides have been dull, and
gold prices have been depressed
by the advanced premium—heavy Buenos Ayres selling at the
close at 20-j-o. gold. Leather has been firm. Skins more ac¬
tive ; the sales

Tallow has been active, and prices have im¬
proved with the premium on gold.
Petroleum was firmer early in the week—standard white, in
bond, bringing 27c., but it has since declined to 26. A slight
advance in Crude Las also been lost. Oils have been firm, but
Ve bear of no important transactions. Eist India Goods are
more active. A
cargo of 6,000 bales Manilla Hemp sold to-day

have in their influence
intelligence having been
attended with a decline in gold, which prevented holders
realizing any advantage from the improved political situation,
and again, warlike news being followed by an advance in gold,
which prevented orders from being executed. The business
of the week consequently has been the smallest we have had
to note in some time, not exceeding 7,500 bales.
The market
closes steady but spiritless. An irregular decline in cotton
goods from £c. on heavy sheetings to 2 or 3 cents on other
cotton fabrics has been very discouraging to spinners, while
the light receipts and decreasing stocks cause holders to be un¬
willing sellers. There has been another heavy failure in the
trade which was severely felt in New Orleans, but had very
little effect here. The following are the closing quotations:

that the Luxemburg difficulty would probably be settled, and the im¬

until on Wednesday Middling to Strict Middling (Liverpool quotations)
were sold as high as 29@30.
Subsequently, however, there was an
unfavorable

The open*
correspondent in London writes
as
follows : *
*
trade, owing to the unfavorable opinion entertained with regard to the
Luxemburg dispute, was heavy in the extreme, and an
important fall in prices was the result. During the last few days,
however, there has been much more activity in the demand, and the
sales have been considerable; nevertheless, prices to-day are much
lower than on Saturday last.
As compared with that day, American
cotton shows a fall of Id.; Brazilian, fd.; Rio, l£d.; Egyptian, l$d.;
Smyrna, £d. to Jd.; and East India Id. per lb. The sales of the
week amount to 55,560 bales, of which 8,280 bales were (to speculation,
13,050 bales for export, and 39,230 bales to the trade. Annexed are
the prices current for American cotton:

a line of undesirable
goods of the Sprague brand was placed upon the
market by a jobber at a reduction of 1(3)2 cents, which was taken
by
other houses as a signal for a general break
in prices, and to-day all kinds

Foreign Goods are dull and declining. The auction houses continue
to offer attractive assortments, but buyers show little

decline to offer anything like satisfactory prices. There is a
light de¬
mand for plain dress goods and other staple articles, but
generally trade
is unsatisfactory.

Chicago Tribune, under the head of “ A Suggestion to
Insurance
as follows:—It is frequently remarked that every
rapidly by others ; and the fact that such has been
the case in Chicago during this season has suggested to many persons
the possibility of there being a philosophical explanation of the coinci*
dence. On Friday morning the Merchants* Hotel was'destroyed—clear ly the result of an accident. On the same night the fire on South
Water street took place, equally destructive of property, and as clearly
the act of an incendiary.
Saturday morning the elevator on the
South Branch was destroyed, and that was the work of an incendiary.
1 he aggregate loss of these three fires was considerable, and following,
at but short intervals, other fires equally destructive, there are grounds
for serious distrust in the security of property. Chicago is not alone in
this calamity. Every large city in the Union is a sufferer in a like
manner, and even the small country towns have not escaped the calam¬
ity. St. Lonis and Cincinnati within a few weeks have suffered even
more than Chicago, hut our losses have been very severe,
Fires seem
to have become epidemic, and one of the first duties in cases of epidem¬
ics is to ascertain their cause, and then employ every effort
