A completed, so that they always represent a real value. Their amount is limited by act of Congress to fifty million dollars on the entire Pacific line, an average of less than $30,000 per mile. Hon. E. D. Morgan, of the United States Senate, and Hon. Oakes Ames, of the United States House of Representatives, are the trustees for the bondholders, to see that all their interests protected. Five Government Directors, appointed by the President of the United States, are responsible to the country Dr the management of its affairs. Three United States Commissioners must certify that the road is well built and equip¬ ped, and in all respects a first-class railway, before any bon is can be issued upon it. * By law o. th-y can be issued to TORS.

A9 additional aid, it makes an absolute donation of 12,800 acres of land to the mile lying upon each ei 'e of the road. 9. The blinds pay six per cent in gold, and the principal is also payable in gold. 10. The earnings from the local or way business were over four million dollars last year, which, after piying operating expenses, was much more than sufficient to pay the interest. These earniDgs will be vastly increased on the completion of the entire line in 1869. 12. No political action can reduce the late of interest. It must remain for thirty years— 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 uot be less than from 20 to 25 per cent premium. As these bonds are issued under Government authority and supervision, upon what is very largely Government work, they must ultimately approach Government prices.

On the 20th inst. there was 1,518,400 bushels of wheat iu store at Chicago, against 754,100 bushels at the naturally cause grain to be held back until the opening of navigation. But the question arises, is there any real same period of 1867, and at Milwaukee 618,000 bushels this year, against 455,000 bushels at the corresponding date advantage to the Western dealers and to the West at large, of last year; while, on the 10th inst., there was afloat on in so small a portion of the crop being forwarded East the canals only 3,154,000 bushels of all grains against before the closing of the canals'? The dealers suppose that 4,852,000 bushels in 1867; which clearly shows the dispo by holding back in October and November they can induce scarcity at the East which will enable them, for the time sition of the Western dealers to hold back supplies. This detention of pr"duce is, perhaps, no more than might being, to get higher prices. They succeed in producing the have been expected as the natural result of a decline of 35 conparative scarcity, and not unfrequently a temporary cents in whear, and a material fall in other grains since advance in prices; but, so long, as it is known that the sup¬ September 1st following close upon a still larger decline plies are stored in the West, the New York merchants during the summer. Much of the grain held in lake store operate cautiously, satisfied to work upon l.ght houses cost ihe holders considerably above the now current refuse to pay a price which they think inconsistent with the values; and it is natural, even if not prudent, that the owners supply to come ultimately upon the market. The result is should try to avert losses by holding .for higher prices. that the Chicago merchant fails to get the price he demand! It may at least be urged in favor of the Western dealers and finds, when it is too late, that he has to carry such a heavy proportion a stocks,and hisstod but following the rule frequently adopted by for some months. This detention of supplies, of course, tends to factors circumstanced as they now are. Whether they are acting wisely is questionable; especially considering that Eastern markets lightly fed with grain during the English markets, according to the latest accounts, are of navigation ; which, at first sight, would seem likely to be better supplied than has been expected. It is favor of the West getting higher prices upon its less our purpose, however, to discuss the prudence of during that period. But against this must besetofflhe high freights paid during the present hoarding of grain than to survey the com¬ mon policy of the West in holding back its grain from The roads hold the shippers at their mercy, having shipment during the last few weeks of navigation. The petition from the canals to keep down result is that high charges have to be paid for present action of the dealers is but an illustration of what that they are keep tltf the suspension to be n shipment apparent advantage that period no com freights; and t^| invariably occurs at this period of the year. In October or November, there is generally a difference of views between Eastern buyers and Western sellers, which results in a curtailment of shipments and in a limitation of almost supplies at th: seaboard during the winter, of no benefit to transportation the price of grain at the Most.

The Western banks are no longer willing to help the dealers in carrying their stocks, for the mercantile interest then comes in with large claims for accommodation ; so that there is no course for the holders of grain but to realise precipi¬ tately upon their hoards; and, considering the large amouut of grain to be sold within the three months before the marketing of the new crop, it is clear that then the Western seller is very much at the mercy of the Eastern buyer. the actual receipts. as It must be further taken into account that the carrying of such large stocks involves heavy interest payments, heavy charges for storage and insurance, and a certain amount of risk of deterioration or damage to the grain; which act as another drawback against any extra price that may be supposed to be obtainable by holding back supplies. At New ^ork, the grain could be carried through the winter months at little over one-half the discount charges paid at Chicago, money being then abundant here, and good produce paper negotiable at 6 per cent; or it would be ready for ship¬ ment to foreign ports whenever prices might warrant such a As evidence of the little benefit resulting to the West from holding the grain back movement. 519 which cannot be done through its agency more advantageously through others; and if new rout** should be opened, establishing cheaper and quickc* communication than between the Atlantic and the great grain section, we must cheapen and quicken ours, or it must inevitably result that a portion of the heavy freight trade of the Western interior would take the new direction. A shorter and cheaper con¬ nection between the European markets and the West would, indeed, create its own traffic, in addition to that already existing. Whatever reduction is effected in the cost of transporting grain is so much gained in our ability to com¬ pete with European producers; and cheaper transportation would therefore insure an extended demand for Western food products abroad. Western expansion is now crippled by the cost of carrying commodities immense distances at high prices. Remove this obstacle, and we should witness an extension of agriculture unprecedented in that rapidly developing section. The growth of the West constantly keeps ahead of the progress of the railroads-; and the result is that the transportation companies control absolutely the rates of freight and, by their high charges and frequently inadequate accommodation, act as a restriction upon the during the season of sources whence their traffic is derived.

Beside, it clearly is not conducive to the interests of Western industry and trade Upon the foregoing considerations, we welcome any feas¬ ible effort to introduce competition in transportation between West, and especially when the new route prom¬ ises to effect a saving in time and distance. The convention that the means of the banks should be unnecessarily absorbed held last week at Norfolk, Va., made a gratifying show of in the carrying of immense stocks of grain. Were a larger strength in favor of a railroad enterprise by which it is pro¬ proportion of the Eastern supplies held through the winter posed to connect that port with the valley of the Ohio and in New York, the Western money markets would be easier, the vast and fertile lands of the Mississippi valley. Judging a lower rate of interest would prevail there, and the banks, from the earnestness shown at that gathering of Western instead of carrying a dead weight for several months, would capitalists, it may be regarded as a settled matter that a con¬ be the better enabled to foster the thousand profitable enter¬ nection will soon be established between the Virginia and prises in that section which so much need and so much Tennessee Railroad and Louisville. The supplying ot such deserve support; while our own banks would find more a link would connect the ports of Virginia with the most legitimate employment for their ample balances, than in thriving sections of the West, Northwest and Southwest by lending them to Wall street operators to be used in demor¬ a shorter route than now connects them with New York. alizing stock speculations.

There is here a very broad basis for a material saving necessity of the times.

Running through a for-commercial intercourse with other sections and other mild climate, the road would be subject to none of the countries.

Spain may have some good effect upon the uncertain and therefore perilous condition of affairs in importance to the grain trade of city. France. It is contemplated to establish a line of steamships to run between Norfolk and Liverpool, designed to carry the heavy class of freight brought over the new route, and supplying the facilities for through shipments from the West to Great Britain. Here, perhaps, is the weak point in this scheme for making Norfolk a great port for Western products. For although it is easily conceivable how the vessels may get ample outward cargoes, yet it is by no means apparent where the return cargoes are to come from, seeing that the Atlantic imports are naturally attracted to the New York market. The projectors evidently aim to divert emigration to that point as a basis of return traffic, and propose, as an inducement for emigrants to come by'their vessels, to give them free transportation from Norfolk to their destination. The representatives of the connecting railroads promised in the convention to grant this advantage to settlers coming in the Norfolk steamers. They cannot, however, make such a gratuity without some considerable cost. If the sacrifice .should induce emigrants to sail for Norfolk in preference to New York, there would be some compensation to the roads; for the profits of the steamers upon the emigrant trade would place them in the better position for cariying freight cheap ; but if it should fail to attract emigrants, the vessels would have to charge proportionately higher rates of freight which would make against the economy of the route to Western forwarders. The great earnestness shown by the West in forwarding this enterprise, as a new outlet for its products and a source of competition with the Eastern routes? warrants the expectation that much will be done by the merchants of that section to establish trade the route; hope is by This means'unreasonable. In the first place the downfall of the government of Queen Isabella II. must weaken the clerical party in France, and the necessity of keeping well with the clerical party in France has been one of the Eraper or’s most perplexing political obligations. Under the inspira¬ tion of a no fanatical nun known as Sister Patrocinio and of France become, that Spain It will be difficult now even ingenious Bishop of Orleans himself to disprove the evidence offered by the Spanish revolution of the impotence of a strictly clerical support to sustain a temporal dynasty. Faith in the church undoubtedly is still a power in France, and par¬ ticularly in rural France. But it is much less of a power in was. for the France than it and is in Spain. If the Bourbons, never¬ theless, found it a broken reed at Madrid, why should the Bonaparfes be asked to lean very heavily upon it at Paris?

SSo far as good wheat is concerned, however, the variations have not been impor¬ tant. Millers are oper ting with considerable caution, but they Lave made purchases of fair magnitude, and seem dispo ed to run fairly into stock at present prices. The impression seems t) prevail that the quotations have fallen to the lowest point for the present year, and consequently millers have no hesitation in buying more produce than they can immediately consume. The falling off in our importations o* foreigo wheat, owing to the much less remunerative price that we are offering, necessarily throws a large consumption on our own crop, and there is no doubt that wo have already consumed more than an average quantity of the new wheats during the present season. We commenced to consume the new crop at a much earlier date, as we had scarcely any old wheat in the country, and scarcely a bushel of old produce, the quality of which could be considered fine. The new crop has therefore been bought freely, but the question has to be con«idered whether, with our diminished importations and with a bareness of old The 324,531 76 Incidentals [October 24, 1868. CHRONICLE. THE is so thoroughly secure as some would lead us to imagine. Without doubt our crop is a large one, but at the close of August next will the supply of unconsumed English produce, and of foreign wheat, be larger than at the close of last season, provided our importations of foreign wheat continue on the present comparatively restricted scale? Our imports of wheat for Hie season show a fallingeff as compared with last 3 ear of 886,870 cwt., being at the rate of 1/7,400 cwt. per week, or 9,225,000 cwt. per annum, and it is very probable that during the winter months a still greater reduction will be shown. Our own crop, however, is well able to bear the strain until the earlier months of the spring, but considering that last season we imported stocks, our position almo^ supply 32,000,000 cwt., and that nearly the whole of that was immediately consumed, it can scarcely be expected that on the 31st August next the supply of home-grown wheat, not, course, The First National The National Bank of the Common¬ wealth in the City of New York, the new crop, which will then have been secured if the season Bank of Morris¬ approved in place of the Importers town and Traders National Bank cf New prove prosperous, will be such as to constitute a reserve pro' NAME LOCATION.

The following are cotton, compared with thoee of last year : the work of picking has made good progress. Still it is very difficult as yet to give any definite idea of the extent of the yield, the views of different parties appearing to be bo wide apart. For instance, one correspondent informs us this week, from New Orleans, that the receipts at that port will certainly reach 900,0C0 bales, while, on the other hand, the New Orleans Price Current of last Saturday says “ there is no probability that there will be any increase” over last year’s total, which was 584,000 bales. A pretty safe guide at this period of ordinary seasons for estimates, is the table of weekly arrivals at the ports. There are, however, reasons why they are not now to the same extent a fair indication of the final result of the crop, the plant having matured earlier, and it being likely that the bulk of it will be marketed sooner than last year. Still, even among those who have all along been making allowance for this fact the continued largely increased receipts are beginning to excite remark and to effect estimates. The following table shows the arrivals at each port up to this evening (including the telegrams of to-riLht), for this been satisfactory, so that to these mar¬ writing under the date of Brazilian cotton has improved ^d. but Egyptian I he total sales of tbe week amount to 96,010 bales are on speculation, 18,690 bale* are perform their part well The freedmen continue to crop are favorable. idd the weather has season Indian Cotton Markets.—In reference improve¬ 4,288 5,708 1,800 176 1,903 3,800 Total " 3,056 25 691 280 176 3,S00 1,908 l,S0O 280 10* 11 11 , lb. and Hamburg.

Friday Evening, October 23, 1868. 1 Trade has been somewhat irregular, but without remark¬ activity in aiiy department. The largest business has been in Rio Coffee, of which about 23,000 bags Lave changed hands. Sugar ha9 declined a fraction, but with decreasing stocks will probably soon recover. In Tea there has been very little doing. Imports of the -week have included average quantities of the several articles embraced within our report. A cargo of Japan Tea (old crop), and one of Java Coffee are the princi¬ pal items of interest aside from the usual receipts of Rio Coffee and of Sugar and Molasses. Full details of the imports at the several ports for the week and since Jan. 1 are given below under the respective heads. The totals are as follows: able This week.

A Oolongs and Japans from the stock received via Isthmus from San Francisco, have given a temporary interest to mat ters, but both line and invoice trade have, as a general thing, been heavy. Sales include 1,449 half chests Greens, 615 do Japans, and 3,000 do Oolongs. In the imports of Tea this week we include cargo of steamer Dunetan, from Yokohama, with 448,878 lbs of Japan, and of iudirect importation, 8,950 packages from England and the Continent by several steamers.

Other buyers showed no disposition to follow the example set them, and we may not hear of any further large settlements for some time to come, as those now advised will strengthen teamci/e views and induce them to hold for still higher prices, until the accumulation of stock, and the pressure for funds to meet their engagements, obliges them to make considerable concessions.
