They must be trusted by the people, and
made the receivers of deposits, and they must be resorted to by
the people when money is wanted by good borrowers. How
is it with our National Banks in these respects?
As to the
individual deposits, we find they are very large, and show
that our people are using the facilities of banks more than
they ever did before. It is true that these deposits have
fallen off from 563 millions, in October last, to 555 millions
in January, and to 510 millions in April.
But this move¬
ment being no greater than is in accordance with the general
monetary law that accumulation takes place in the summer,
and depletion in the fall and winter, does not, perhaps, indi¬
cate anything justifying anxiety.
It will, however, bear
watching. As to the loans, they have not declined to the
same extent as the
deposits. The amount is now 597 mil¬
lions, against 608 millions in January, and 601 millions in
October hist.
To trace these general facts as we ought,
and to* arrive at our deductions early enough to give
them a fair degree of practical value, it is obvious that
the reports of the banks^should be issued oftener than once
a quarter.
We trust that Congress will enforce next
session the very judicious suggestion of Mr. Ilulburd, the
Comptroller, on this subject, and cause a more frequent pub¬
lication of the bank returns.
It is also probable that we
shauld get from these returns much more accurate views of
the real standing of the banks, if the reports to the Comp¬

figures, we are aware, are very imperfect, but it
may be stated in general terms that the stocks at the West¬
ern centres are
only about one fourth of the quantity on hand
last year; at New York, however, they are, as will be seen,
considerably larger. The consequence of this singular ine¬
quality is that, at the present time, the prices of flour and
grain rule at the same figures at the East as at the West,
and shipments are being made to some points in this State

apprehen¬
sion, however, that the aggregate will actually be larger.
There are yet several bills unsigned which contemplate an
increase, but we trust wiser councils prevail in the Executive
Chamber than have held control in the halls of legislation
during the past winter. For although this is somewhat less
than the figures estimated by the Comptroller—one per cent,
and over, it is still large enough to justify serious apprehen¬
sions ; and yet we do not know that this spirit of extrava¬
gance will be checked until the people have suffered a little
more severely on account of it.;
The levy of three mills
on the dollar in 1857, now approximates three times that
amount, whereas the aggregate assessed valuation has not
materially increased. As the matter now stands about
$13,000,000 will be absorbed by taxation for State purposes,
besides some $37,000,000 in the .several counties for local
expenses. Added to this is the sum of $60,000,000 more

money is so cheap, there is. scarcely any speculation in any depart¬

in wheat or cotton, as the general public hesitates to invest in the shares
of public companies. Annexed are the present rates for money so far

during the week, a continuance of the activity noted for some time
past. The transactions connected with conversions are necessarily
large, and produce a special activity in new Sixty-fives, which are
almost invariably preferred by the sellers of Seven-thirties.
The
conversions at the Sub-Treasury this week have been very large,
and if the operations continue at the current rate, up to the
maturity of the notes, there is no probability of any important
amount being then unfunded.
The favorable turn in the Luxemburg negotiations found many
of the foreign dealers in bonds largely “ short” of Sixty-twos, and
caused a large demand at the beginning of the week for covering
those contracts. The price of the bonds consequently advanced,
and close at 1071 ex-coupon, which is equivalent to 11with cou¬
pon—a rise of 14 upon the closing price of last Friday. Fivetwenties of 1864 and 1865 have improved in sympathy.
Therefore there has been no purchases of Five-twenties on foreign
account, a movement which was anticipated on the maturing of
the May coupous, and which has usually occurred on the payment
.

of the coupous.

The fall has not been so great as was

expected to result from the change in the aspect of foreign affairs
and the payment of about $24,000,000 by the Treasury on coupons.
There is, however, in some circles, perhaps especially among for¬
eign bankers, a very decided opinion that, before long, an im¬
portant export of specie will be required for the liquida¬
tion of our foreign balances;
the view being based upou
the near exhaustion of the cotton crop and our iuability to ship
breadstuff’s before the harvest. It appears to be principally this
consideration which keeps the premium from declining under the
weight of the large supply at present coming out of the Treasury.

BREADSTUFPS.
Friday, May 3, 1867, P M.

The market the past week has been excited and buoyant.
The reduced stocks have encouraged speculation, and the
course of the Western markets has seemed to indicate the con¬
tinuance of high prices here.
The trade, therefore, has also

purchased with considerable freedom.
The receipts of flour contiuue on a very reduced scale—not
more than half sufficient to meet the absolute
requirements of
the market; and, with reduced and rapidly reducing stocks,
prices have advanced 50 cents to one dollar per bbl., and close
with the advance very fully maintained. It must be observed,
however, that at the Western markets the extreme prices cur¬
rent have checked the demand, reduced shipments, increased
receipts, ar.d somewhat added to the stocks on hand. The
market to day opened excited but closed quiet.
Wheat has also advanced largely both here and at the West,
At Chicago and Milwaukee the latest quotations are slightly
higher than Sew York, & New York i§, \n |ur»f higher than

Liverpool. The advance in this case brings very little increase
of supplies. The demand has been liberal from millers, and
a portion of the purchases are logo to important milling points
in tire interior of this State.
We have a comparatively large
stock of wheat fortunately. Considerable supplies of California
are close at hand, and we can spare some to other domestic
market. The accounts of the growing crop are satisfactory
as regards the Winterwheat, but for Spring wheat the season
is late, and the growing districts are still visited with flurries

fluctuated. Old Western mixed has sold as low
as $1
32, and as high as $1 40 in store, closing heavy at the
latter figure.
The receipts of new have been less liberal than
Corn has

Accounts from Buffalo state that its harbor is
still blockaded with ice, and that some days may elapse before
it shall disappear.
The new Corn is coming forward in fair
condition, and it may be shipped to Liverpool by steamer.
Oats have advanced five to seven cents, in sympathy with
Corn, but closed heavy. Rye has advanced five to ten cents
per bushel, in sympathy with Wheat, and Barley is five cents
higher, with a brisk malting demand from the interior, and
reduced stocks. There has been a small export of movemen
in Canada Peas at old prices.

rapidity with which the irou rails wear out. The
average life of a rail has diminished fully 50 per cent, during the
last ten years, they lastiug now but three
years.
This causes au
expenditure in maintaining the road which tells severely upon the
working expenses. .We are not prepared to say that the railroad
iron now manufactured in this
country is inferior in quality, but in
the iucrepse of speed by our
passenger trains and the increase in
weight of engines, together with the increased tonnage, may ac¬
count for their rapid destruction.”
