will compare with them. They are, and were, the wonder of

is simply to point out one of the directions in which our taxreform machinery should operate.

principle applies of course, in the first place and most directly,
to our internal taxation, both that levied on manufacturing

of the chief points of the fiscal policy of any nation should be
to unfetter industry, and as far as possible to guard against

to obtain a remission of a part of the Internal Revenue
taxation. There is no doubt that apart of the depression and
languor which afflicts the material interests of the country and
impairs its productive power, is due to the pressure of
ill-advised and unwisely laid taxes. In consequence of the
vigor
and fidelity with which the Internal Revenue Law has been
administered we have a surplus of fifty millions or more in the
Federal Treasury. It is the pressure of this excess of income
on
expenditure that has given new impetus to the question of
remitting the taxes, and has made it possible to give a favor¬
able answer to the demand. In a few weeks

These fundamental

nothing is so difficult as their wise application. Still the
attempt has to be made. Congress will have the agreeable
task of taking off some fifty millions of taxes, and what we
have to do is to decide which are the most galling, the most
mischievous, the most obnoxious to just objection, the most
opposed to the true principles of fiscal science, the most detri¬

The Committee recommend tbe organization of

lines between this country and Europe, and the
subsidizing of
the lines by Congress. They ask for a modification of the
navigation laws so that Americans may purchase foreign
ships; they demand the abolition of the tariff on shipbuilding
material, and they ask Congress to declare ports of entry all
cities in the West and South which have a
population of
100,000 and upward.

They also said that “ the present system of Internal

the honest industry of the country. They recommend that
the Internal Revenue should be collected from taxes upon the
following articles : Licenses, stamps, tobacco, liquors, distilled spirits, and from land sales, fines, and forfeitures.”
From these sources they anticipate a revenue of $327,000,000, a sum deemed more than sufficient to meet the expenses

provide a sinking fund of one per cent, which, in thirty years,

The Committee on the “Mississippi Levees” favored the
construction of these works on a general plan to be inaugurated
by the Federal Government. It was remarked that under the
former system of labor the planter had often scores or even
hundreds of hands whom he at once could set to work if
occasion occurred, but that now no such force was at his dis¬

do not advance, are at any rate not at all
likely to recede ; the future
will of course much depend on the

Kansas Pacific Railway.— A
correspondent of the New York
Timet, under date of Sept. 26, writes in regard to this road as follows :
While acknowledged to be at least as
deserving as the Union and the
Central Pacific, the Kansas Pacific was not as
lucky as its compeers;
for when the line had been built to a distance of 393
miles, Congress
suddenly shut down on any further subsidy. However, the road was
last year, by private enterprise, pushed out some
miles further, and it
now abuts at Sheridan,
406 miles west of the Missouri River.
From
Sheridan preparations are under way to extend the line 225 miles to
its natural terminus at Denver, whence it will connect with the Union
Pacific, by the “Denver Pacific Railroad,” anow actively under con¬
struction and to be finished this
year.
THE
Government
GOVERNMENT LAND
is well known, was of the alternate
section within twenty miles of the road on each side.
This gave the
Company above six million acres of land lying between Kansas City
and Denver.
It is worthy of remark, in passing, that this
provision on
the part of the Government
(by which the railroad receives only the
-alternate
or
“
as
odd-numbered”
section) is regarded by the people here
for it completely baulks the speculators
who would, otherwise, absorb
large tracts of land to hoi 1 for a rise.
At the same lime, parties buyi g lands in bulk from the railroad com¬
pany and settling them with actual settlers, are enabled to obtain,
under the Homestead law, the
adjoining (“ even-numbered”) sections

the securities of the Illinois Central

The
expectation of an early consumma'ion of the arrangements for
consolidating New York Central and Ha Ison River has caused a
general advance in the stocks under Mr. Vauderbilt’s control, New
York Central having sold
up to 194, Hudson River to 175, and
Harlem to 149fc. The advance in these Shares has
produced a more
buoyant feeling in the market generally. L ike Soore also has been
quite firm, advancing from 89$ to 9i£. Pacific Muil has advanced
from 56£ to 62|,
owing to the Company having made arrangements

The Gold Market.—For the first half of the week the
transac*
tions in gold were confined almost
exclusively to the legitimate
foreign exchange and customs duties,
and the price remained
steady at 130@I30£. Within the last two
days there has, however, been some baying on speculative account
business connected with the
—the first symptoms
since the panic of the 24th ult. of a revival of
speculative transactions. These purchases appear to have been
based upon an idea that gold was
unnaturally low at 130 ; and the
buying on this account induced further purchases by parties who
have been “ short” since the culmination of the wild
last month. From these causes the price
speculations of
to-day advanced to 1311,
but
again fell back to 131£ at the close. The market has been
sup¬
plied with sales of $2,000,000 of gold by the Treasury; the customs
1,696,000
demand ha9 been moderate, and the
State

shipments of specie nominal.

This is
undoubtedly a mistake ; there is no evidence whatever of
any such disposition.
On the contrary, there would appear to be
an effort making to market a fair portion of the crop as early as
possible.
India. Cotton and the Suez Canal.—Our mail advices this
week from India, under date of September 14th, continue favorable
The plant in most districts is reported as looking strong and healthy
though in
•
some
of the low lying lands it is stated that there
are
evidences of slight damage from excessive moisture. We have
been at considerable pains to learn the general opinion at Bombay
as to the possible extent of the yield of East India Cotton the coming
season.
Ot course it is far too early to form any idea of what is to
be the actual result, and the opinions we have received have tendec
only to indicate what is the possible extent of the crop in case al
things continue favorable to the end of the season. The highest
estimate received is about 400,000 bales in excess of the past year
(or say an export from India of about 2,000,000 bales), while the
lowest estimates show
figures furnish, we think, a fair indication of the present average
opinion at that point as to the possibilities of the crop—the majority
inclining to the higher estimate. There seems to be a diversity of
opinion as to the probable shipments through the Suez Canal. The
extent of the crop movement in that direction must, we think, depenc
largely upon prices for the raw material, on account of the excessive
charges for tolls, &c. At all events, sailing vessels will, we think,
hardly find it profitable to attempt the passage under any circum
stances, as it would be necessary usually for them to be towed
through the entire length of the Red Sea and the Canal.

Shipping News.—The exports of cotton from the United States the
past week, a« per latest mail returns, have reached 86,826 bales. So
far &9 the Southern ports are concerned, these are the same exports
reported by telegraph, and published in the Chronicle last Fri¬
day, except Galveston, and the figures for that port are the exports for
two weeks back.
With regard to New York, we include the manifests
only up to Tuesday night, to make the figures correspond with the offi¬

The market for Breadstuff's shows
general decline in grain
a
during the past week, but closes rather more steady ; while
in flour the advance early in the week is
barely maintained.
The receipts of flour have shown some
increase, but the
demand has been active, and with
considerable stocks to
no
draw
from, prices steadily improved till the close of Wed¬
nesday’s business; with large sales.the demand was qu te
general. The West Indies, the British Provinces, Great
Britain and the Brazils, have all been
buyers, while the local
trade, having confidence in the stability of prices, purchase 1
freely. Stocks are undoubtedly smaller now than they were
a month
ago, which is a remarkable circumstance for thus
period of the season. All grades have shared in the improve¬
ment, and none more than good trade brands.
A portion of
the export business has been in unsound flours at
f>5]10@$5 85.
Wheat has declined 7@10c per bushel.
Supplies by
Canal are still kept back, but we have had liberal
receipts by
rail, and pretty free offerings from store. Besides, freights
have advanced 4d or about 12c per
bushel, which fact with
the pressure to sell, has caused the decline above noted in the
face of advancing Liverpool markets, and but amoderate rate
of receipts at the Western markets.
Supplies from the
Canal may be expected next week, when the
strength of the
market will be fully tested.
To-day, business was limited
mainly at$l 43 for Amber Winter.
Corn has largely declined. Liberal
supplies are expected
from the Canal within the next few
days, to meet which there
is only the home demand, and it is the
opinion of manv that
prices will have to decline to meet export orders. Ttie close,
however, is comparatively steady.
Oats have also been depressed ; the
pressure to sell was
early in the weak, very marked, and good cargoes went at
61c, but there is since an advance of 2c, and to-day was
active. The movement appears to be
quite light, and we may
not expect any considerable accumulation of stocks at

Fall trade in this line is fully equal to the

average of the season in other years, and everything indicates
a continuance of
activity till its close.
The check experienced from the late interruption of trans¬
portation is rapidly fading out, though still favorable weather
and steady gold rates have contributed to render business
good.
Raw Sugars, with an active business, have
steadily declined,
following the falling market for Refined Sugars, which have
lost from §c@£e during the week. The market for both Raw

prevailed for Rio throughout the week, and
prices have been maintained at the figures current last week. The
telegram from Rio under date of September 23d, received and pub¬
lished here on Monday last, gave both larger sales and shipments for
the United S ates; but the despatch has exerted no perceptible influ¬
ence on the market.
The stoc«s iu the United States are not large,
and that at New Orleans is reported as having been entirely closed out
during the present week by the sale of 8,200 bags. The sales are
25,472 bags of Rio, 4,500 do of Santos, 659 do of Maracaibo, 500 do of
Ceylon, and 160 of Laguayra.
Imports of the week have been limited to two cargoes of Rio, viz:
“Graf Von Annin,” 4,200 bags, and steamer “South America” 8,*58
bags. Last week the s!earner “Donati,” with 10/205 bags, was acci¬
dentally omitted in our account of imports. Advices from Rio Janeiro

:
After departure of the Merrimack, on the 26th ult., transactionsia cof¬
fee remained limited to the want, up to the 31st ult., owingio the
unsettled state of our money market and the difficulty of passing bills
of
exchange.
On the Istinst. the banks came forward as takers, and a fair activity
in coffee was the immediate consequence, although the sterliog value
of the article hardly suffered any alteration, as the decline of 300 to 400

Prints, quite contrary to the expectations of many, continue to recede
in prices, and with the exception of
Pacific goods no standard brands
are now held above 12$c.
They continue in a rather mixed state.
Prices have been reduced on nearly all brands, but new work
opened
is held firmly by the agents at previous rates ; this condition of affairs
is to be deplored, as the only effect
perceptible is a diminishing of cor fidence among buyers.
The diversity of opinions put forth on the state
of affairs at present in existence is immense. Some state that a
speedy
resumption of previous rates is to take place, others, that the prices
will be reduced still lower, and still others, that the season’s trade is
over, and that affairs will remain in statu quo until the next season’s
opening. Printers are turning their attention to new stales for spring
work, and from what we hear, some very fine designs are to be pro¬
duced. Allens 12, American 12$, Amoskeag —, Arnolds 10$, 0

Print Cloths.-— The market in this line is still weak and unsettled
;
the decline in prints and the unsatisfactory amounts distributed, have
combined, with other causes, to depress the market. Printers, in view
of the prices to be obtained for their
goods, are mostly running on short
time, and purchase in as small a way as possible, and, in consequence,

Woolen Goods in desirable styles of cloths, especially plaids, are
jo
active lequest at good rate?.
Overcoatings are moderately active in
the finer grades, while even the lower and medium styles are much
improved. C-tssimeres in fine grades are in request at fair prices, but
lower grades are dull and inactive, even at large reductions below mar¬
ket rates. Flannels are quietly moving in small quantities for sorting
up.
Blankets are in good demand, and rates are fully maintained.
Kentucky Jeans are still dull, and rates are rather unsettled. The
Southern trade is ordering in small quantities; Western buyers are
hardly touching the goods however. Shawls are still enjoying an ac¬
tive demand, although, as the season advances, a slight falling off is
perceptible ; still the goods, in desirable styles, are absorbed readily
by buyers upon being opened, and all leading makes are sold very close
Rates are firmly maintained, and the business presents a very
up.
satisfactory exhibit for the whole season thus far. Arabs are in active
demand; the agents have ciders placed ahead, in some instances as
high as thirty days.
Foreign Drems Goods, in desirable styles, are in fair request, but
this branch of business sympathizes with the rest of the dry goods
market; in fact, the only trade that is apparently active is in the fur
line, and even that lacks the snap and vimoi tnesame period last year.
Astrachans appear to be the favorite among dealers, and some very
beautiful seta have been shown to us.
Sables, as usual, are in fashioD.
There is a great deal of irregularity in the auction rooms at this time.
The attendance is only moderate, and there are large quantities of
undesirable goods offering, which very much unsettle affaire. For de¬
sirable goods, or these to which the trade happen to take a fancy,prices
are higher than could be obtained, or than is asked for them at private
sale, and consequently profits are good. For low giades of goods, or
those which the tra^e do not want, prices are below cost of importation.
The present week is a slow one, but the indications fur next week, at
which time some new and seasonable goods are to be offered, are more
promising.
