be assumed that this large porexports has realized the value at which it was
entered.
On the other hand, it must be considered that in
the imports there is also a certain amount of consigned
goods, a very small percentage of which is likely to have
realized near the invoiced value under the extreme depression
of the spring trade; so that our indebtedness is probably
below the amount at which the imports were entered.
Those who have judged of the volume of our exports from
the movement at the Northern ports have been misled in
their estimate as to our surplus products. While tile shipments from this port have been unusually light, those from
the Gulf ports have more than compensated for our deficiency,
Within three months we have exported trom all the ports
products worth in gold value $106,689,294, which is at the
rate of over $425,000,000 per annum, a total whioh has
never before been equaled.
The unusually large amount of
our
exports, however, is due rather to the prevailing high
prices than to an increase in the quantity of commodities, |
and is therefore a matter for but qualified gratulation.

[May 18,1867.

The foregoing figures show that notwithstanding our pur
chases of foreign goods have been confessedly large, yet we
have been far less deficient in the

means

of payment than is

popularly supposed. The quantity of our surplus has as
stated above been less than in former years, yet high prices
have compensated for the diminished supply. During the
nine months ending March 31st, we shipped cotton valued
at $143,000,000, which is 12 millions more than the value
of the entire cotton export of 1858. These facts may furnish an antidote to the croakings of the alarmists who are
making themselves unhappy over our “ excessive importations.” The payments of about nine millions of coupons
upon Five-twenties held in Europe and the maturing of importers’ acceptances upon their spring purchases, occuring
cotemporaneously, have produced just now a demand for
specie fqr the settlement of fofeign balances; but there are
no reasons for supposing that this movement will be of extraordinary dimensions, or that the year’s shipments of gold
will exceed the average of former periods,

London, Saturday, May 4,1867.

The

proposal for a Conference in London, at which it is now fully
anticipated that the question of the neutralization of the Duchy of
Luxemburg will be finally agreed upon to the satisfaction both of France
and Prussia, has been productive of beneficial effects in
many depart¬
ments of business, but chiefly
in those which had been most affected,
when the fear of a Continental war was so
generally entertained. At
the same time, however, business is still remarkably quiet, and with the
exception of considerable activity in the cotton market, the only
favorable indication to be noticed is a slight increase of confidence with¬
out leading to any extended transactions.
At the present time of the
jear there is generally a revival in the home trade ; and there are ev‘j
dently signs that such is, to some extent, the case now; but it is less
perceptible than usual. * Throughout the country the shopkeepers are
laying in their stocks of summer goods ; but as bread and provisions
are still dear, while, in many districts, labor
is ill-employed, more than
usual caution is displayed. The commencement offine summer weather,
and the prospect of a good harvest will undoubtedly tend to mend mat¬
ters ; but until we progress further towards harvest, and are more able
to ascertain its probable extent, and the quality of the
produce secured
much revival of trade can scarcely be anticipated.
During the present week the Liverpool cotton trade has been very
active, the total sales having amounted to 98,860 bales, at an average
rise in prices of ^d. per lb. This trade has for a long period been in a state
of considerable depression, and just at the period when it was felt that
the quotations had seen their lowest point, and when there was
every
prospect of an increased trade and export demand, the difficulties with
Spain and the Luxemburg question began to attract attention, and as a
Continental war was so generally feared, the effect at Liverpool was to
produce great depression and a heavy fall in prices. The satisfactory
arrangement of our chief difficulty with Spain, and the likelihood of a
favorable solution of the Luxemburg difficulty, have entirely altered
the position of affaiis in this department, and the decline which had
taken place in prices by reason of the war rumors has been wholly re¬
covered.

The

ordinary revenue for 1866-67 is estimated at $2,010,At the present time the market seems to be entering upon a more

making abnormal purchases in our markets to compensate for

The demand for money

is quite moderate. The stock brokers
required fewer loans during the week, and discounting opera¬

have called in their balances daring the week, and converted them
into gold for shipment, in settlement of foreign, balances, which has
temporarily disturbed the ease of the market.
Discounts are comparatively quiet. There is a meagre supply of

Friday, May 17,1867, P. M.
The Money Market.—There has been, during the week, a par¬
tial abatement of the decided ease in money lately reported. Inte¬

rior

Exchanges have continued to rule in favor of this city, and

moderate amounts of currency have been received from the West;
but the Sub-Treasury has drawn a considerable amount of currency
from the banks

through sales of gold and of bonds, the balance
being last evening over $125,000,000, against 110,000,000 on May
six. The effect of this movement has been apparent in diminished

foreign houses have bought more freely dur¬
ing the week. On Tuesday and yesterday their purchases of Sixes
of ’81, Sixty-twos, and Old Sixty-fives were quite important, and
were made principally for shipment.
The foreign market has been
unsettled, but the prevailing tendency has been in favor of higher
prices. Some of the foreign houses have invested surplus funds in
Five-twenties, upon the expectation that prices in Europe will ad¬
vance.
The bonds sold by the German bankers to London, pend¬
ing the Luxemburg excitement, have not yet been wholly returned
to the Continent, and the London market is consequently fairly

Miscellaneous Stocks.—The current transac¬

almost

wholly speculative; and the speculation
chiefly on brokers’ own account. Rarely during the spring months
have the public taken so littfq interest in Wall Street operations;
and the amount of commission business is barely sufficient to
pay
expenses. The effort to, promote an upward movement in price
has had bat partial success. An advance was secured; but the
clique which effected it appear to have had much difficulty in realiz.
iug at the higher figures. Attempts have been made to draw out
a “ short ” interest, but the opposite side are wary of “ corners,”
and it is found difficult to catch professional speculators by the tricks
of Wall St. During the week transactions have been light, and
the tendency of prices has been downward, quotations being 1@2
per cent, below those of last Friday.
The recent advance in Erie has induced purchases of stock at
Loudon, and we hear of lots of that stock amounting to over 5,000
shares being in course of return. It is reasonable to suppose that
a similar movement will take place in Illinois Central.
This morning stocks opened weak, Erie selling as low as 62
against 63| yesterday, and other stocks being proportionately lower.
Between the morning and afternoon boards there was a further de¬
cline of f@f per cent.; but, at the afternoon boards, there was a
partial improvement in prices, and the market closed steady at the
figures given below.
The following were the closing quotations at the regular board
yesterday, compared with those of the six preceding weeks;

The Gold Market.—As indicated in our remarks last week,
the large amount of gold which had passed from the Sub-Treasury
into the hands of coupon holders, has
and the bank statement of Monday
five millions in

found its way into the banks?
shows an increase of nearly

specie deposits. The sudden increase in our foreign
indebtedness, caused by the maturing of the May coupons, has pro¬
duced

an

amount of remittances to

Europe which the supply of bills

adequate to meet; and there has consequently been a con¬
siderable shipment of specie by late steamers. On Saturday last
the exports of coin amounted to $1,509,909, and on Wednesday and
yesterday the shipments aggregated $1,448,408.
To-morrow’s
shipments are expected to exceed $2,000,000. The demand for coin
from this source has kept the market firm, notwithstanding the
effect of the conclusion of the treaty settling the vexed Luxemburg
was

not

(jaestiop. An idea prevails among




light. For to-morrow’s steamer there has been a fair supply of
hills against shipments of bonds ; but there is, nevertheless, a large
deficiency which has to be made up by shipments of specie. Rates
close firm on the basis of 1091 for prime bankers’ 60 days sterling*

partially interrupted to day, however, by a break in the Erie

Canal near Schenectady.
Flour has arrived latterly rather more freely, but still not
sufficient to supply the current requirements of the market, and
the stock on hand continues to be reduced. But at the West the
movement for the current week has greatly increased.
The

receipts of flour at Chicago for six days ending last evening
were 28,500 bbls.
Speculative holders here have rather pressed
sales, and prices have declined 75 cts to $1 per bbl., closing
with a tendency still downward.
Wheat has had about the same experience as flour—buyers
have held off, and at

the close prices show a general but very
irregular decline. The receipts of wheat at Milwaukee for six
days ending last evening were 125,000 bushels, and there
were also 57,000 bushels received in the same time at Chicago.
We have also 80,000 bush. California wheat now due at this
port. The market closed with a small demand for No. 2 Club
$2 75.

at

Corn has

experienced extreme fluctuations. On Tuesday,
concerted movement, prices were sold down to $1 10 for
prime new and $1 18@1 20 for prime old mixed, and $1 20
for Southern white; but the rebound was very strong, and to¬
day prime new mixed sold Si 24@1 26 ; old do. Si 31@1 32 ;
Southern white Si 28@1 30—the latter taken for export. It
is expected that supplies will be temporarily curtailed by the

by

a

break in the canal above mentioned.
Oats have been lower, but the decline has been nearly re¬
covered. Western cargoes sold on Tuesday as low as 80c.,
but the best brought 85^@86c. tg-day. We have receipts to¬

day of about 30,000 Canada peas, and there are about
200,000 bush, on the way. They are held at $1 35 in bond,
and |1 30 bid.
There is very little beside an export demand
for them. Barley is nominal.

GROCERIES.
Friday, May 17, 1867—P. M.

The

Grocery trade presents some improvement since our
report. The settlement of difficulties in Europe has a
good effect upon business, and the general tone is better and
more hopeful.
The demand is fully equal to the importation
at this time, and the extreme depression formerly noticed
seems to have worn away.
There is also a generally increased
confidence in prices, and although business is restricted to ac¬
tual wants, there is less anxiety.
last

TEA.

Tea has been

generally quiet but steady. The principal item of in*
terest is the sale of 22,000 half chests Japan teas, the cargo of the j
Golden Gate, to the same house which last week took a cargo of Oo¬
longs. Added to this we notice sales of 2,950 half chests Greens, 1,223
do. Japans, and 800 Souchongs.
;v>i
Imports of the week have included portions of two cargoes of direct
importation, amounting in all to 1,180,59*7 lbs., and 2,009 pkge. from
Liverpool. Details of the direct imports are as follows*: By the
“ChaaSze,” fromYokohama, 372,141 lbs. of Japans; by the “Dunkeld,” from Shanghai, 42,251 lbs. Twankay, 6,200 lbs. hyson skm,
106,581 lbs. hyson, 447,752 youDg hyson, 84,031 lbs. imperial, 121,641

Liverpool, May 8.—The weather has at last become genial, and
more
pacific tone of politics a reaction might have been ex¬
pected, but the exhaustion of foreign stocks is so great that prices show
great strength, and have rather advanced than the reverse.
On Tuesday there was not a large attendance, nevertheless an ad¬
vance of 2d. per cental was obtained on White Wheat.
Flour met a
steady sale. Indian Corn, with a good demand, advanced 6d. per
quarter.
To-day the market, though firm, was not active. Purchases of
Wheat were only made for actual requirements; 14s. per cental was
paid for finest Chilian, in retail, and 14s. 6d. for Californian. Flour
was without
change. Indian Corn slow of sale at 44&@44s. 3d. per

412,421 95

comparative earnings of the year 1865 aud 1866 shows a decrease on the whole line of $412,421 95.
The military transporta¬
tion for 1866 included in earnings was comparatively a small sum,
amounting only to $89,813 74, which in 1865 reached $409,450 51,
making a difference in favor of 1865 of $319,636 77, and showing
that the regular business for 1866 was but a small sum less than for
the previous year. And but for the prevalance of cholera in Cin¬
cinnati and St. Louis from July to December, and the unfortunate
disasters to the road by floods, subjecting the company to the loss
of the important bridge over the Miami, seriously interfering with
the heavy fall business from which the largest half of the year’s
revenue is derived, the regular business of the road would have been
larger than that of 1865. The disasters referred to added largely
to ordinary and extraordinary expenses by the increase of labor and
material required to put and keep it in order.
Included in the expenses for 1866 is the cost of 6,013^ tons of
iron renewed on the E. D., and 2,689£ tons on the W. D.; besides
63,740 and 56,105 lies laid in the divisions respectively within the

spikes, and the increased cost of running the trains over the Indianopolis and Cincinnati Railroad from North Bend to Lawrenceburg, incident to the loss of the bridge over the Miami, makes a
total of $565,565 70, swelling the expenses that amount. There
is also included in the expenses the cost of road, coals and crossties

The Fire Escape.—We notice the introduction of a valuable

form convenienent for travelers, and as
to use as a flight of stairs. Within a thin metallic
case, only seven and a half inches in diameter, are coiled on a pulley,
thirty feet of light, strong, and flexible steel-wire rope or tape, pas¬
sing out between rollers adjusted by a hand screw to any desired
pressure, and terminating in a hook for fastening to a window seat.
A chair for the body, formed of leather straps, is attached to the
case, and the hook being secured to the window seat, the person
seated in the chair may regulate or arrest at pleasure his own des¬
cent by means of the screw. By using fine steel wire woven into
a tape, sixty feet might be coiled in a smaller case than that abore
described, making a perfect escape portable in every one’s carpet

Lewis Lillie & Son,
Gentlemen,—We have subjected the sample of
double-chilled iron von furnished us to the most se¬
vere tests (as regards drilling through it) we could
bring to bear upon it, and without success.
It is our opinion that it can only be penetrated by
the use of a large number of drills, and the expen¬
diture of much power with days of time, and we
think it impossible for a burglar with his time and
power to penetrate it at all.
