10. The earnings from the local or way business were over four million dollars last year,
which, after paying operating expenses, was much more than sufficient to pay the interest.
These earnings will be vastly increased on the completion of the entire line in 1869.
12. No political action can reduce the rate of interest.
It must remain for thirty years—
six per cent per annum in gold, now equal to between eight and nine per cent in currency.
The principal is then papable in gold.
If a bond, with such guarantees, were issued by the
Government, its market price would not be less than from 20 to 25 per cent premium.

these bonds are issued under Government authority and supervision, upon what is very largely

naturally induce a large amount of speculation in securities.
The banks, anxious to find employment for funds on a large
portion of which they are paying 4 per cent interest, lend
freely on stock collaterals ; and the speculators gradually
run
up prices, so that at the period when the active demand
for money naturally occurs prices are generally inflated, and
this large class of bank loans is proportionately expanded.
The holders of stocks use every possible means to get them
carried at these advanced prices through the seasons of activ¬
ity in money, and have lately resorted freely to time loans,
extending from September to December and January. In
any event, they cling to their stocks until the commercial
demand becomes so imperative as to compel them to realise;
and then sets in a
process of decline which causes uneasiness,
and a contraction of
lending. It is thus evident that the
mercantile interest is not accommodated so early, so freely,
if less had been advanced by the
banks to speculators. They have to wait until the prices of

GreatyBritain and the United States to permit our men of
capital to be very lavish of means for the construction of a
foreign route of transit capable of being operated for so mischievous a purpose.
The Mississippi with its branches, afford¬
ing all the facilities of an inland sea, the Erie Canal with full
powrer of transporting double the freight that now rides upon
it, and the four great trunk railroads—all which are in our
own
territory and subject to our legislation—will in preference
be depended upon for many years to come. There are too
many openings for the investment of capital in this country
for our men of fortune to occupy themselves about, without the
necessity of crossing the line to find an opportunity in a
foreign realm.
The projectors of the Simcoe Canal will, therefore, we
fear,
be compelled to wait some time before
obtaining sufficient
capital for this enterprise. We apprehend and prize the value
of the facilities which they offer.
The Niagara Ship Canal
and analogous enterprises have not half the
advantages. We
regret that we have not the proper opportunity to avail our¬
such expectation. There can be only lands to grant, and
practical value of such a donation is too inconsiderable to
be taken into the account.
If the peninsula had been a part
of the United States, this matter would have been agitated
many years ago, and perhaps, with such assistance, an entire
success
achieved, as has been the case in so many of the
States. But this country was sought by settlers and
emigrants
from the Old World, whereas British North America derived
but small additions to population in this manner.
Hence
the prospective value of the
surrounding land could not be a
very desirable^ inducement for any considerable internal im¬
provements, nor would the plan of laying direct taxes for such
a
project find supporters in a province sparsely populated,1

The Simcoe
Canal, therefore, must depend upon private
enterprise. This is a formidable difficulty. Capitalists seldom
invest largely in enterprises where the emoluments are
likely
to be for a
long time inconsiderable as well as precarious. It
is very doubtful whether the Erie Canal itself would have selves of them.

extent.

the quotations have clearly had an important influence in advancing the
prosperity of the country, while the peaceful aspect of Continental

As stated
above, money has been in improved demand, and the rates
of discount have tended
upward. The commercial inquiry is increasing
somewhat, and large sums have been required in connection with the
foreign loans lately introduced. The position of the market-is certainly
more
encouraging, but as a large supply is now wanted, to meet the
election expenses during the next
fortnight, the existing activity is, to
some extent,
only temporary. After the elections have been held, a
large return of coin may be expected from the provinces, unless, which
is somewhat
improbable, the improvement in trade should be so con¬
siderable as to prevent a flow of coin towards London.
Although
trade is
improving, a rapid development cannot be expected to take
place, and, indeed, cannot be wished for.
A gradual expansion of
business is clearly in
operation, and such should be looked upon as a
very favorable sign. Foreign loans, of which notice has been given of
several, will continue to be brought forward, and, for that rea -.on, a rise

In Provisions a large
proportion of the new crop, now com¬

able goods is as *yet small, and in the
absence of stock, the
market still presents a
very dull tone. The demand is mainly
for immediate consumption,
buyers being unwilling to enter
into any heavier engagements than
pressing necessities call

city packers at the moment is much
restricted by the scarcity and
high price of hogs, and lots for
early delivery command better figures. The mail advices
from England are somewhat
contradictory, but in the majori¬
ty of cases predict a good trade, and shippers bids are
fully

but the trade buys sparingly; there is less distillery demand,
and the stock is large. It is asserted that the new corn will
not be in condition to come forward by rail so freely as it did
last winter, but the closeness of money has prevented any
extended operations for a rise. Oats were greatly depressed
early in the week, Western cargoes touching 70c., but the
close is quite firm.
Rye has materially declined, with very
little doing. Barley has been doing better in the last day or
two.
Canada Peas have sold for Liverpool at $1 38, in
bond, which is better.

every item of interest concerning the markets.
The
imports have been without any feature of special
importance, if we except the very considerable increase in the
receipts of Havana box sugar, of which receipts at the several
ports will probably be large again next week, as large ship¬
ments are reported at Havana by latest advices per steamer.
No further arrivals of new crop teas are reported, and but a
limited quantity of Rio coffee.
Full details of the imports at
the several ports for the week, and since Jan. 1, are given

Hardly any transaction of moment has taken place since our last re¬

prices, it is understood, which show a slight yielding to the softening)
influence of the “ tight times.” The inquiry for Japan teas is fair, and.
reported a9 slightly improved. Prices throughout are fairly supported. ’

The Quincy Bridge is completed, and the Chicago, Bu> iington &
Quincy Railroad gains by it more than appears at first sight. It
will now be able to run cars through to St. Joseph, to Omaha, and
soon to Kansas City, giving
Chicago close connection with the
whole system ol Kansas railroads, and the fertile country in
Missouri and Kansas, which is g owing more rapidly, perhaps, than
any other part of the country, and will soon be the greatest stock
growing region in America. The bridge was to be tested this
morning, and will very soon, doubtless, be ready for use.— Western

Accidents from obstructions wonia be prevented by the fencing in of ihe roads
from one end to the other, so as to prevent cattle from t espassing on the tracks.
A perfect system of brakes, acting on the entire train, under control of the
engineer, and made so as to be applied by steam power, would be of incalcul¬
able service in checking a train approaching an obstruction, while the general
adoption of the calcium light won d as a rule, reveal the presence of the ob¬
stacle in time to admit o* the slackening of speed.
The breaking of axles,
which always occurred close up to the inner face of the wheel, could to a great
measure be guarded against by having at convenient intervals along the road

When accidents are caused by the misplace¬

lives. It was also recommended that the speed of trains approaching a switch
