finding out that it is their in¬
terest to be honest, honest in the giving out of contracts,
honest in the developing the capacities of the,r roads, honest
in their treatment of the stockholders, the bondholders, and
the general public for whose travelling convenience the roads
have been authorised by law. These general hints are sug¬
gestive of some of the reasons why so many of our rail¬
roads which formerly w*ere the footballs of Wall street have
taken their place in the very front rank of paying invest¬
ments, while many others are on their way to the same
remunerative eminence.
Still making due allowance for
these more permanent, steady, forces, acting on the quotations
of the Stock Exchange it is impossible not to recognise in
the recent movement some effects resulting from the eman¬
cipation of our money market from the depressing fear which
hung over it for weeks before the culminating point in the
week the banks were making up their quarterly statements.

THE PROSPECTIVE PREMIUM ON
The decline in the

GOLD.

price of gold from 150 in July to 137^

premium, three months ago, was mainly due to what
then appeared to be a reasonable prospect of a serious ad¬
balance in our foreign trade.
verse
During the first six
months of the year, we had exported from New York alone $60,000,000 of specie, an unprecedented amount for that
period, and yet our imports were increasing, while our
the

falling below the value of those last year, and
provide for the payment of $7,200,000 on account
of the purchase* of Alaska.
Few or none considered it safe
to rely upon the continuance of the exportation of bonds
upon auy considerable scale, and it was therefore deemed
exports were
had to

inevitable that

we

must

make further heavy drafts upon our

already reduced stock of gold, in order to balance our trade
indebtedness to Europe.
It was principally upon these considerations that gold
advanced to 150.
Relief, however, came from the quarter
least expected.
It proved that, notwithstanding the im¬
mense amount of United States bonds held in
Europe, the
market there was open to take still more at the easier prices
induced by the rise in gold; and contrary to all expectation,
Government securities were sent out steadily, during July and
August, to an aggregate amount variously estimated from
$25,000,000 to $40,000,000, besides several million shares
of the Erie Railway Company.
This very large contribution
toward the adjustment of our foreign trade account, virtu¬
ally averting a heavy drain of specie, completely changed the
condition of the gold market and produced a steady decline
in the premium, as the magnitude of the movement came to
be generally appreciated.
The downward tendency has also been accelerated by the
r esult of the harvest
affording promise of an abundant sur¬
plus of food products for export. It is difficult, however, to
estimate with even approximate accuracy the course of the
foreign trade movement for the next few weeks, upon which
the price of gold must be in a large degree dependent.
During the months of July, August and September, the im¬
ports at this port have varied but little from those of the
same
period of last year, the total being $72,800,000, against
$65,400,000 in 1867.
The produce exports at New York,
for
the same period, have
been $50,800,000, against
$42,000,000 last year. Perhaps it may be safely assumed
that, for the next three months, the imports will not vary
materially from those of the same quarter of 1867. There
would seem to be good reason, however, for anticipating that
the course of the exports will be more favorable than last
year. Our exports of fisld products may certainly be relied
upon to yield us a larger jeturn ; the only question being,
whether the improvement will come at once, or be delayed

from these figures that our grain shippers
a position to
make shipments this fall at
all proportionate to the large increase in our surplus; it is
therefore to be expected that sooner or later we shall have a
large amount of exchange made against this class of exports.

stated in the official returns at

$69,000,000..

The export¬

surplus of wheat alone, this year, is estimated at about
40,000,000 bushels, which, at current and probable prices,
would realize much more than our whole shipments of flour
and grain last year.. The corn crop is also abundant and
likely to yield us a liberal exportable surplus; when it is
considered that the whole quantity of corn exported
ast fiscal year was only 11,500,000 bushels, it is apparent
that here also there must be some gain in the value of our
shipments. These facts show that, allowing for the late de¬
cline in prices, our exports of breadstuffs, for the current
fiscal year, may easily realize from $25,000,000 to $30,000,000
more than those of 1867-8,
The cotton crop is being held
lack from the same cause which checks the shipments of
breadstuffs. The planters are this year absolute owners of
their cotton, and the stocks being small, they hold their cot¬
ton with considerable firmness.
It is quite possible that
there may be a temporary check in the exports of this staple
from this cause ; but there is every reason to expect that the
result for the whole year will exceed in value that of last
year.
From all thus far ascertained as to the prospect of the
yield, it would apparently be safe to estimate that we shall
have a surplus of 1,700,000 bales for export.
Estimating
the average price for the year at the low figure of 20 cents
per pound (with gold averaging, sav 135), the total value of
our
exports of this staple would be about $150,000,000*
which, though about the same in currency value as the cot¬
ton exports of 1867-8, would yet yield a higher value in
gold, the premium having then averaged above the foregoing
able

estimate.

supply and demand upon the gold market
quarter of the year is not likely to affect mate¬
rially the premium. A large amount of coin interest becomes
payable at the Treasury on the 1st of November, and
although probably some $14,000,000 of the total may be
due to foreign bondholders, yet it is anticipated among foreign
bankers that fully one half that amount will ba set off by

an

better return for labor than almost any

other branch of in¬
dustry; and the quiet of trade in the cities has also induced
an unusual
proportion of emigrants to seek their fortunes in
the same direction. We have thus had an important settle¬
ment of
population along the routes of the Western roads,
who have raised a
large amount of heavy freight to be trans¬
ported. At the same time, the Western companies have
stretched out their lines into the sparsely settled regions, carrying population with them. The expansion in the agricul¬
tural sections has naturally increased the traffic of the roads
and of the lines
connecting the West with the seaboard.
From the returns of fourteen roads it
appears that there has
been an increase in the
gross earnings of the first nine months,
from $45,598,356 in 1867 to $49,879,004 in 1868; or
nearly
ten per cent.

of September were

Ohio A Mississippi, St. Louis, Alton A Terre Haute, and

has been on Chicago A Alton, Illinois Central, Milwaukee A
St. Paul, Fort Wayne, and Toledo Wabash A Western. The
large amounts of produce pressed forward to the grain
centres, immediately after the harvest, is the principal, cause
of the gain in the earnings during the last month.
For the
last two or three weeks, however, there has been a falling off
in the receipts of many roads, owing to the wet weather and
also to the fact that the fallen price of grain has checked the
transportation of produce ; for this reason, it is quite likely
that the exhibit of earnings for October may not be so favor¬
able as that for September.
There is, however an unusually
large stock of grain in the hands of the farmers, the for¬
warding of which, and especially of the unprecedented corn
crop, must give active employment to the roads for the next
few months and keep the earnings on a liberal scale.

London, Saturday, October 3, 1868.

our own

Commercially speaking, the position of affiirs has

not

materially
quarter?, however, there
is rather more activity, the retail houses
throughout the country being
very busy in purchasing their goods for the winter months.
The
weather has now become rather chilly, and to-day a cold rain from the
northeast is falling, so that most persons will quickly make their
pur
chases for a supply of warm clothing.
In this respect we may expect
more activity
in business, but the general trade of the country shows
but little animation.
Our foreign trade is still very quiet, foreign
buyers
being indisposed to purchase with any degree of freedom. As regards
our Colooial trade, the future, so far as Australia and the
Cape of Good
Hope are concerned, is by no meati3 brilliant. The heavy f^ll in the
price of wool at the last series of sales held in London is clearly calcu¬
lated to discourage the mercantile classes at Melbourne,
Sydney and
Cape Town, and it not improbable that many growers and merchants
altered since the close of last week.

In

some

in the above mentioned colonies will be

compelled to succumb. It is
sales ju3t concluded was a
loss to the Colony of £800,000; by which is meant, I
presume, that if
the wool had been sold at the prices of the previous sales it would
have realised £800,000 more than was really obtained.
The trade,
however, were quite unprepared for such a sacrifice, and, as a conse¬
quence, many miscalculations must have been made.
As these sales
will have some, if not considerable, influence on the
future, I give an
extract from a circular issued by Messrs.
Edenborou^h & C >. during
the present week:
said that the Australian wool sold at the

unexpectedly unfavorable. It was anticipated that the
funds temporarily locked up, for producing
stringency in the loan market, would have caused an increase of
both deposits and legal tenders; on the contrary, however, the
statement showed a loss of $5,865,000 in deposits and a decrease of
$235,000 in legal tenders. The decrease of deposits appears to
have arisen partly from the payment of $3,958,000 of loans and
partly from a withdrawal of $2,411,000 of sped3. The loss of
legal tenders indicates that’there was a material outfiow of cur¬
rency to the country during the week.
These unexpected adverse
features in the weekly exhibit produced, at the opening of tbe week
a somewhat stronger feeling among lenders, and
money was loaned
very generally at 7 per cent; but, as the week progressed, there
was a steady gain in ease, and in the market to-day the majority of
transactions have been at 6 per cent. About the close of business,
transactions were reported at 5 per cent, on Governments; but
there were indication? of that rate having been made for specula¬
tive purposes. The course of exchange with the Western cities
has turned in our favor, and light remittances have come to hand
from both Cincinnati and Chicago.
To the South there is a steady
remittance of funds; and the banks are also sending moderate
amounts of currency to their correspondents in tbe minor cities.
The discount market continues to work steadily.
There is a
healthier feeling in credit circles than at any period since I860, and
good merchants’ paper is taken readily, the rate lor prime names being generally 7 per cent, with exception? at
per cent. The
lower grades of paper are negotiated at from 8 to 12 per cent.

Hops have been taken
le^s freely foi export, but with a good home trade, close very
firm. Hay is selling at low prices. Fish and Salt have been
steady. Wool rules very firm, but without much doing.
The market for all styles of Provisions remains in a very
dull condition, and prices are somewhat unsettled, though we
find but few holders who are as yet willing to accept any
material concessions. For the new crop the demand is fair
and occasional small sales are consumated, though within a
day or two, orders from Western packers have caused the
withdrawal of considerable stock. Many shippers are anxious
to make their contracts payable in coin, but this does not
meet the approval of sellers, and interferes somewhat with
operations. The domestic consumptive inquiry is fair, and
the general stock is gradually growing smaller.
City Prime
Mess Pork has been contracted for December delivery for
expoit at 824@824 50, closing at the higher figure. In
Beef, we notice some business for Prime Mess for November
at 828@28 50 per tierce.

quite" active considering

stock, but prices have declined somewhat under the
of the increased receipts and offerings which have

proximate the Liverpool quotations than they have for some
time, and exporters have during the week been able to pick
up some small lots, but shippers are generally anticipating
lower prices and refuse to operate either for present or for¬
ward delivery, except at a figure below present rates.
Our
advices by mail from Manchester do not promise any decided
activity in that quarter; but the small stocks at Liverpool
and on the continent make the foreign markets extremely
sensitive to the slightest influences.
We hear of no sales for
forward delivery. The offerings for December delivery have
been at 23^-c. Sales for the week foot up 17,548 bales (including
1,992 bales afloat), of which 8,604 bales were taken by

The

principal business of the week lias been in Sugar and

Coffee, and in these transactions have been considerable, at

Tea has been comparatively neglected, and
only moderately active, at steady quotations. Sales
continue to be in excess of imports, and stocks are conse¬
quently decreasing, the most, marked decline being in the
stock of Manila Sugar, of which there have lately been large
firm

prices.

sales.

imports of the week have been above an average in
Tea, Coffee, Sugar and Molasses. Included in the receipts
are part cargoes of Tea of direct importation, one
by sail, the
other by the Pacific mail steamer.
Rio Coffee has come in
quite freely, and also considerable lots of other sorts. The
arrivals of Sugar and Molasses show an increase over the
imports of last week. Full details of the imports at the sev¬
eral ports for the week and since Jan. 1 are given below
under the respective heads.

absence of

activity in this line of groceries during the
closely on stagnation. No offerings,
however, are made by importers less than current rates, and prices
remain steady.
A better feeling in the Line trade seems to prevail to¬
day which it may be hoped is a precurser to a greater degree of ani¬
mation in Invoices.
Sales include 1,400 half chests Greens, and 8,900
do Oolongs.
The imports of Tea for the week have included two arrivals of direct
importation viz. : “Jane Woodburn,” from Whampoa, with 1,843 lbs.
Congou, 11,566 Pouchong, 108 Oolong, and 27,889 YouDg Hyeon, mak¬
ing a total of 41,406 lbs. ; and the Pacific mail steamer “ Henry
Chauncey,” with some 2,384 half chests, of which we shall be able to
give the details next week.- By steamers from England and the Conti¬

bonds should niore^ fully command the entire confi¬
dence of capitalists than this, which has never faltered
in the payment of its obligations, of every description.
The net earnings of the road are more than fourfold
the interest on its present bonded Indebtedness, ami
the stockholders have received eight per cent cash

dividends.
It is the purpose of the Company to issue at present
only a email portion of their Bonds secured under this
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 fullv warrant us in unhesitatingly recommend¬
ing these Bonds, as In all respects, a first class

security.

Company have been informed of the

appointment of a Special Commission to re-examine their road. If

the Commission includes all roads receiving similar Government
302
subsidies and bonds, this Company will regard the appointment

415
that the Government has listened to the rep esentati ns of an un¬
306
favorable character regarding our work, and which justice requires
333
268
I should contrad ct.
I think it my duty, therefore, to assure yoar
Excellency that the Union Pacific Railroad is at least equal to any
23
of the other lines in construction, appointments and permanent im¬
32
30
provements, and that you can easily ascertain the thoroughness and
310 excellence of the work by reference to Generals Grant, Gherman
and Sheridan, who lately passed over the line.
I can also furnish
193
1 he names of many of the most eminent, practical railroad men in
208
206
the country to corroberate these statements from personal know¬
210
ledge. I respectfully request that the t ommissioners be instructed
2 5
to i clu e all the roads in the examination aud report in detail on
250

ihe comparative qualities of each. To any test this road shall
