DOUBLE THE AMOUNT.

There is no railroad Corporation in America whose
bonds should more fully command the entire confi¬
dence of capitalists than this, which has never faltered
in ttic payment of its obligations, of every description
Tlie net earnings of the road are more than fourfold
the interest on its present bonded indebtedness,and
the stockholders have received eight per centci-h
dividends.
It is the purpose of the Company to issue at present
only a smad portion of their Bonds secured under mis
mortgage, which we are now authorized to sell, in
lots to suit purchasers, at ninety and accrued interest.

Personal knowledge of this property, and its manage¬
ment, fully warrant us in unhesitatingly recommend¬
ing these Bonds, as in all respects, a first class

security.

THE NOVEMBER DEBT STATEMENT.

In the absence of

of the statement of the
public debt for November 1, we can give only such figures
as have been

details for our next issue. It
appears from the telegraphic
returns that the net debt has been
reduced, during October,
§7,514,166. The total obligations outstanding have been
diminished only §3,898,988; but as the cash balance in the

this

reserve

of 25

cent is intended to strengthen the banks, and
protect them against any “ run,’' or panic, which

might send their circulation home for redemption, or might
cause their
depositors to demand payment suddenly of their
deposits, it is clear that the safety of the banks would be
compromised except the certificates are made convertible
immediately on demand into greenbacks. During the last
summer the bank reserves were full, and exceeded consider¬
ably the minimum of 25 per cent.
Hence, there was no
trouble, and no practical difficulty arose.
But during the recent financial trouble the leserves have
suffered, and are likely to fall some still. Consequently a
plan for relief was proposed, which was found very effectual
during the war, of making the certificates payable at the
Treasury in greenbacks on demand,
Before this arrangement could be carried out some of the

have to compensate for this deficiency in supply on hand, but
they are likely to require an increased amount for actual con¬
sumption, to meet the extra demand naturally growing out
of an improved condition of trade
throughout the country
gehsrally, and especially in the Southern States. For this
reason, Liverpool is not likely to be much benefited by the
enlarged Southern crop.

The fact of the arrivals of

required at home, it appears that Europe may
anticipate results exceeding those of last year by about
200,000 bales, which would allow an increase in the weekly
consumption of 3,840 bales over last year. We find that
the amount taken by the trade at Liverpool last year, from
October 3 to December 31, averaged 57,870 bales per week ;
while, for the first four weeks of the corresponding period of
this year, the puichases of the trade have averaged 58,360
bales, or about 500 bales per week more. For evident
reasons, however, the purchases of the trade for the last few
weeks are not perhaps a fair indication of the consumption.

The home trade of Great Britain

appears

to be steadily

recovering, and the demand from the agricultural districts,
stimulated by the large wheat crop, is expected to prove
larger than in late vears. ’ On the Continent, there is a more
assured political feeling; the grain and wine crops are abund¬
ant; and enlarged orders for yarns and goods are expected

glutted with goods at the beginning of this year, when prices
were low; and, stocks
being larger than usual, there will
naturally be some reluctance to buy largely at the advance in
prices required by the present value of cotton. The South
American markets being affected adversely by the continuance
of war and by the late earthquakes, are not likely to require
their average amount of manufactures.
The probabilities
would thus appear to favor a fair, steady demand for goods5
not below that of last year, possibly above it.
There are some other considerations which are not unlikely
to have a certain degree of influence upon the price during
the next few weeks. It is usually the policy of the Liverpool
dealers to encourage a free export from the United States
early in the season, with a view to getting a large amount
afloat and centered at the southern ports ; and when aconsid
erable proportion of the crop is in process of movement
towards Liverpool, the price is allowed to drop, and the cotton
falls into the hands of English buyers at low prices.
It
remains to be seen whether the fact of the crop being this
year held to an unusually large extent by the planters may
not partially thwart this trade trick.
The planters well
enough understand the game of the Liverpool buyers; and if
their financial condition is such

as

to enable them to hold

$20,000/00 of deposits and of $12,000,000 of legal

and it therefore seems

;

impossible to evade the conclusion that a large amount of funds
has beeu withdrawn from the banks and hoarded by speculators,
for the purpose of embarrassing the market and forcing a decline in
securities. The pressure has compelled the banks to take in for
redemption about $11,500,000 of 3 per cent certificates, within the
month ; which amounts to a contraction of th r circulation to that
extent, the Secretary of the Treasury having detcruined that the

indeed, have advanced steadily in the face of the growing stringency

of money at New York is not favorable to the holding of cotton
at the ports.
The banks have urgent applications for money
from the South, to which they cannot respond; and, unless it
should prove that the monetary pressure is largely due to
artificial meddling, it is quite possible that cotton may have
to be shipped more freely than is consistent with the interests

riUCES OP

October has been characterized

of those periods of exces¬
sive stringency in money, which appear to have become regularly
periodic in the fall and spring months. The preparation for the
quarterly bank statement caused less disturbance than hau beeu
anticipated, owing to the demand for moving the Western crop?
having been checked by the refusal of the New York grain mer
chants to buy produce at the then current high price?. In the early
part of the month, however, there was a steady drain of funds to
the banks of the minor cities, causing a loss of deposits and of legal
tenders, and a firm 7 per cent rate of interest. About the middle of
the month the market suddenly assumed a stringent aspec the
banks having little to lend, and the large balances in the hands of
private bankers, which had for some time kept money easy,,finding
ready employment at rates much above the legal limit. With the
exception of the banks and a few private bankers who, fon principle
refuse to accept over the legal interest, lenders obtained during the
latter part of the month rates varying from 7 per cent in gold to \
per cent per day from borrowers on stock collaterals. Discoun ing
operations suffered a severe check. The mercantile banks have
been unable to meet fully the wants of their customers; who, how¬
ever, would have suffered more in consequence had it not been
that their wants were strictly moderate. An unusual amount of

meetiag of the shareholders of the Grand Trunk Railway of Can¬
ada has been held this
week, to consider the half-yearly report of the

directors.

On the motion of Sir Edward Walkins

that the report and
adopted, Mr. Creak proposed an amendment
to the effect that as the accounts
were
unsatisfactory, the shareholders
refuse to endorse them.
At the meeting the show of handR was in
favor of the amendment.
A poll, however, was
demanded, the result
of which was declared
to-day : For the amendment 84,000, against it
accounts be received and

The Fort Wayne, Muncie and Cincinnati, and the Fort Wayne, Rich¬

City Council of Fort Wayne have adopted a resolution that whenever

the Fort Wayne, Richmond and Cincinnati Railroad Company shall
complete the whole line of said railroad, and the cars shall be running
thereon and in connection therewith from Cincinatti, through Richmond
into Fort Wayne, the said city will provide by ordinance for a sub¬
scription by said city to the capital stock of said compauy of $100,000,

Its early completion is regarded a certainty.

The Cortland (N. Y.) Standard contains a report of the railroad
meeting held at Cincinnatus to take action in regard to the proposed
railroad from some point on the Midland Railroad, in the County of
Chenango, and thence west through Chenango and Cortland Counties.
Resolutions were adopted providing for a preliminary survey. The
survey will embrace the route by the Brackel, and the route by the
Otflelic, and the route by the Canashawacta, to Norwich. And the
route through McDonough to Oxfoid is recommended to be surveyed.
The

City Council of St. Paul have granted $100,000 twenty year six
percent bonds to the Chicago and St. Paul Railroad, on condition that
the cars will be running to Hastings by November, 1869 ; and also
$50,000 to the Minnesota Valley Railroad, to enable the latter com¬
pany to bridge the Mississippi at this c;ty, and establish their depot on

the St. Paul side of the river.
These aporopriations
to the voters of the city for their ratification in

will be submitted

The location of the Des Moines
Valley (Iowa) Railroad is now corpleted northward thirty-three miles to Alton, Dallas County. The line
passes four miles northeast of Adel, the county seat of that county.
The lajge gang of workmen on the Portland and Rochester
Railroad,
near Alfred Corner, are
rapidly cutting through the ledge at that
point. Last week they made great progress, cutting through over
thirty feet in length.
The court at St. Louis has ordered the
proposition to subscribe
$1,000,000 toward the building of the Chillicothe and Omaha Air Line

banks the rate of interest upon

call loans has ranged from
per
day, while the difference between cash and regu^r sales of
stocks has be"n generally £ percent. To-day, the pressure resulted
in a general break in the stock market, and at the close
money was
offered more freely, iu many c ase3 at 7 per cent; which may pos¬
sibly be the beginning of a relaxation of the artificial means for
embarrassing the market, or the offers may have been made for the
purprse of drawing parties into stocks, with a view to again
pinching them.
The money market and the stock market are
entirely in the hands of a knot of unprincipled speculators, and
the consequent feeling of demoralization exceeds
anything ,experienced since the panic of 1857.
The position of the banks has not been materially changed
by
outside movements. They have received fair remittances of cur¬
rency from Chicago; but probably all the e receipts have been
sent to other sections.
The applications from the South are
increasing iu vole me and urgency, but the banks can only very
partially respond to the demand. The payments of tie SubTreasury have been fully equal to The receipts. No sales of gold
or bonds have been
made, and about $2,000,000 of 3 per cent Cer¬
tificates have been presented by the banks for redemption.
With a view to dispensing with the use of plain legal tenders in
settling balances between the banks, the Clearing HQuse Associa¬
tion has agreed to use the 3 per cent Certificates for the settlement
of daily balances, and $20,000,000 of the Cereificates have been
appropriated for that purpose, and stamped at the Sub-Treasury
with a certification that the obligations are payable on demand in
legal tenders. Although some $13,000,000 to $14,000,000 of the
Certificates were redeemed during October, yet new Certificates
were issued during the month against maturing compounds , so
that, as appears from the debt statement, the amount outstanding
on November 1 was
only $6,900,000 less than on October 1.
Disccunting operations are held wholly in suspense, so far as
respects street negotiations; and the banks also have been com¬
pelled to limit their accommodations to customers. Rates are too
irregular to admit of our usual tabular quotations for the different
cent per

,

classes of loans.

United States Securities.—The market for Governments has
been weak and

panicky. The pressure in money prevented ) the
anticipations of a strong upward movement fol¬
lowing the elections and the payment of the November interest on
Five-Twenties. This produced a certain feeling of disappointment
among the holders, which was turned to account by a clique throw¬
ing very large amounts of stock on the market, with a view to
precipitating a decline. At the same time, it became known that,
contrary to expectation and to official assurances, the Treasury had
sold, during the past month, between seven and eight millions of
Five-Twenties, which added to the demoralization of the larger
holders. The panicky feeling was further intensified by reports
that the Treasury had been a seller of bonds this week, a statement
which, however, is to-day officially denied. Under these influences,
the market suddenly broke down 3@4 \per cent; but afterward
partially recovered, and closed 2@2£ per cent below our last
quotations.

Miscellaneous Stocks.—The strong

efforts of

stringency in money lias the cliques to break down the prices of stocks to-day resulted in a
through the past week without abatement. The general panic in the stock market. The culmination was brought

showing a los3 of $5,100,000 about by the maturing of a large amount of “ puts” on St. Paul
in legal tenders and
of $4,100,000 in currency deposits, and with stocks issued by a director and leading operator in the stock.

The Gold Market.—Gold has been active, but the fluctuations
have been

slight. The heavy decline expected to follow the elec¬
tions, ahd the payment of 24 millions of coin interest has not been
realised; and large amounts of gold have had to be bought by
parties who had sold “ short ” in expectation of a decline. The
price temporarily touched 132£, but again advanced to 133£ and
closed at 133£. The impression gain3 ground that large remittances
have to be made to'Europe the next few weeks, o*ing to the post¬
ponement of payments by the importers, which causes in some
quarters a strong feeling and induces baying.
The fluctuations in the gold market, and the business at the Gold
Board during the week closing with Friday, are shown in the fol¬
lowing table :

The market this week has continued until to

day strong and
steady, with a fair demand from spinners, shippers and specu¬
lators, in the face of lower gold and a vory close money mar¬
ket. This was the result, in great part, of the small stock of
American reported in Liverpool last Friday, but as the tele¬
graph this afternoon gives the stock of American there at
48,000 bales, (about 30,000 bales more than estimated,) with
35,000 bales American afloat; the market is weaker, and
closes about £ cent off.
Sales of the week for forward delivery
have been at full prices.
On Monday sales were reported of
400 bales for December and January delivery at 23^e., and
500 bales for November at 25c.; on Tuesday 100 bales aver¬
age middling for January, and 100
sold at 23-^c., and on Thursday 200
for January and February delivery

bales for February, were
bales average middling

at 24c., and 250 bales
low middling for February at 22 Jc. To-day no sales
are
reported. * In transit cotton the transactions have been
quite limited, though the amount offering has increased. We
hear of one sale here of 500 bales average Liverpool middling
at 24c., on board, in Savannah.
The total sales for immediate
delivery this week foot up 19,690 bales (including 3,704 bales
to arrive),
of which 4,545 bales were taken by spinners, 3,T25
bales on speculation, 11,396 Tales for export, and 624 bales in
transit, and the following are the closing quotations ;
average

COTTON.
Friday, P. M., November 6, 1868.

By special telegrams received by us to-night from each of
in possession of the returns showfig the receipts, experts, &u., of cotton for the week end¬
ing |his evening, Nov. 6. From the figures thus obtained
it appears that the total receipts for the last seven days have
reached 73,425 bale?, (against 66,596 bales last week, 55,669
bales the previous week, and 51,091 bales three weeks since,)
making the aggregate receipts since September 1, 1868 up to
*his date, 400,013 bales, against 249,796 bales for the same
period in 1867, being an excess this season over last season of
150,217 bales.1 The details of the receipts for this week (as per
telegraph) and the corresponding week of 1867 are as follows**

prospects. The reports received during the past week have continued
favorable, although there has been some rain followed by cold weather.
We hear however of no killing frosts, and picking appears to be pro¬
gressing favorably. Messrs. Neil Bros. <£ Co. send us from New Or¬
leans their detailed estimate of the crop, putting the total at 2,500,000
bales to 2,600,000 bales. Their figures, however, for North Carclina

the result will be.

Receipts.—A

correspondent (without giving his
name) writes that he wishes to call attention to the “ incorrectness of
our additions as to
aggregate receipts of cotton since September 1st,”
and then attempts to prove his position by ad ling together the previous
weekly receipts as telegraphed to and published in the Chronicle.
Certainly this correspondent could never have taken the trouble to read
our
report through or he would never have fallen into such a lo se way
of keeping the cotton figures, for we expressly state iu our report each
week that our total is not made up by adding our telegrams of the
previous weeks, since we cannot in that way ensure the accuracy
necessary. We always take the mail returns as given in our general
table, and, to obtain the total, add to them on Friday night the week'8
receipts as reported by telegraph. The necessity for this course is in
many ways apparent, but we have not the space for a full explanation
here. We will add, however, we have made such arrangements with
the telegraph company the past week that in future our information
will be even more complete than heretofore.
Gold, Exchange and Freight.—Gold has fluctuated the past week
between 132 and 184, and closes to-night was 133£. Exchange closed
very weak and irregular. The transactions noted were done on a basis
of
109(^109-8 for prime bankers sterling 60-days, 109£@110 for bankers,

The market this week has been very quiet, and under the
pressure of a stringent money market and a decline in gold,

prices have been drooping.

The sales of Kentucky for the

week are limited to about 175 hhds. on small
shipping and
trade orders mainly from 8 to 16c. Seed Leaf Tobacco has
also been very quiet, without important
change in prices.

grades, being in comparatively small supply, have
steady at the reduced quotations of last week. At to¬
day’s market some business was done for Liverpool and
London, at 16 50@$7.
Wheat has come forward freely, and there is now a good
prospect of liberal receipts throughout tbe residue of the
season for inland navigation.
The upward movement early
in the week (mainly, stimulated by an advance of a penny
per cental in the Liverpool market), reached $1 74 for No.
1 and $1 60 for No. 2 spring; but there was a quick sub¬
sidence, and prices have declined daily, No. 2 closing at $153.
The reduced prices have brought forward shippers, and they
have purchased freely for Qreat Britain—to the extent, this
week, of nearly a quarter of a million bushels, being favored,
likewise, by a slight decline in ocean freights.
Corn has arrived sparingly—not equal to the current
wants of the local trade, and prices have advanced; but the
demand has been quite limited, and buyers are not disposed
to take parcels from store.
Shippers have not been able to
do anything in this article for some days. The close was
dull at $1 16 for prime mixed. Oats were advanced to nci

The sales are 12,000 bales, of which 8,000 are for

Manehester, Oct. 22.—Our market for bothyarns and cloth is still
without improvement, the same dullness and inactivity having existed
which prevailed throughout last week.
Buyers still keep aloof, and

The business

producers, in view of the firm positiou of cotton at • iverpool, are com¬

as the latest advices from all are unlav< rable for imports.
The short-time movement has made little progress yet, and no com¬
bined action has been taken to extend it; but every day’s experience
is in favor of short-time, which seems the only thing that will avert the

markets,

present ruinous losses to producers.

Bradford.—A considerable amount of wool has recently parsed from
the stapler to the spinners’ hands, and as a consequence, a lull has
followed until the stocks of spinners have become somewhat 'reduced.
There is still a fair’ demand for sorting up, and for immediate use.
The export yarn trade is not encouraging
The demand which a week or
two ago was so brisk, has greatly fallen « ff.
There is a moderately
good business doing inpieces, and the next season’s trade promises to
be about an average.
The demand for heavy goods for the East—
camlets and crape lastings particularly—is also i improving, but Chica
figures get no share of it. Several American buyers are in the market.
Belfast.—Flax—Rather increased supplies appeared in our markets
during the past week; large attendance of purchasers ; ail well bought
up at fir
prices. Yarns—Demand moderate, and only a limited busi¬
ness doing.
Handloom linens (brown)—Damasks, diapers, and cambric
handkerchiefs have been but little inquired for.
Prices without altera¬
tion, Powerloom—Cloth suitabie f'6r the foreign clothing trade has
been in improved request.
Stocks not large ; prices firm. Bleached
and finished linens—A fair steady demand exists on home account.
Pi ices generally steady.
Stojks are held within a reasonable compass.
