The road upon wmcb theee securities are based is one of first-class
importance. It spans the State of New-York from its Metropolis
to its northern borders. ’ No
public work of greater magnitude or of fairer promise for utility and profit has ever been undertaken ip
this State.
'
i
Its northern terminus is at the
rich and
populous counties of
City of Oswego, on Lake Ontario. From this point it traverses, in the direction of
New^Tork, the..,
Oswego, Oneida, Madison, Cayuga, Onondago, Cortland, Chenango, Otsego, Delaware, Sulivan, Ulster ■
and Orange, where it strikes the borders of
New-Jersey, whence it continues under another name and a separate
that State, to the City
of New-York. The last-named division is nowin course of construction.! The entire charter obtained from
length of the road is
upwards of 400 miles.

The road is admirably located for
securing a large and profitable business The northern section of New-Jersey, through which it
passes, is one of the most healthful and picturesque regions in the vicinity of New-York. It
only needs the additional attraction of the
railroad facilities which this line will afford to transform it into a
wealthy and populous suburb of the Metropolis; thus securing to that
division of the road a large and
constantly increasing local business.-1" / ; " ir :::: ’ ; j :

.
The other and main division traverses the
eotire-leDgth of the great midland counties of New-York, which have been hitherto
almost destitute of railroad facilities. These counties are as fertile and
productive os any in the State; and as this road will furnish
them their much-needed facilities for
transportation and travel, it cannot fail to command, throughout its entire lengthy a librae and
remunerative local busineis.
^
Its advantages for through
business, both Northern and Western, are also unsurpassed.
City pf New-York with Oswego and Canada forty-five miles; and, by means of a branch to It shortens the railroad connections of,the:
Auburn, where it connects with the New
York Central, it shortens that connection with Buffalo and the West
seventy miles. These are important advantages.. TW^in
connection With its thorough construction, its
easy grades, and its freedom from sharp curves, it cannot fail id
compete successfully with' 1
any and all other roads for through business. Possessing such superior
advantages for commanding both local and through business, and
being one of the trank lines of road starting from the great commercial centre of the
Union, there would seem:to be no room todoubt
lhat the road wiU prove to be one of the most remunerative in the
country. •
MItA construction has been undertaken under financial auspices
equally favorable. The citizens of the Midland (jfcmnties* feeling tiie
urgent peed *of railroad facilities, ha^e made subscriptions to its capital stock to the amount of six millions of
dollars. The larger share'
of these,subscriptions have been made
by towns and cities in their corporate capacity, and for which they paid ia town
andxity. bonds
bearing 7 per cent interest. These bonds being made by laW exempt from local and municipal
taxation, when held in any county'through which the road passes, the
Company have found ready sale for them at par and interest whenever they had occasion to use the
proceeds,
thus rendering the
subscriptions for which they were given in payment, equivalent to cash. The Company, therefore,opjiimeBce its
a paid-up capital of $6,000,000, which, it is believed, is a
undertaking with
larger capital thin any other tailroad enterprise in this
country has ever been started with.*
i .M i:ir n
By express provision of law the towns and cities which have thus subscribed for and now hold a majority1 of the
Oapitkl stock of: i
the Company, can never dispose of it, whatever the market
price may be, without the consent of a majority of the tax-payers in the
respective towns and cities. This virtually may be deemed a perpetual prohibition'of sale,
whereby the control of the road will remain
forever with the farmers and business men
residing On its line,Who, of aFl others, are the parties most interested in its success, and thus
save it from the hazards of
being made a foot-ball of stock operators and speculators*
:sh c \
To provide the balance of the means that
may he found requisite to complete and
equip the road, the Company
usual method of issuing bonds secured
by a first mortgage on its property. That mortgage has been executed. It has adopted the
conveys to A. A.
Low, Geo. .Opdyke and Delos De Wolf, in trust, to be held as security for the bondholders, the entire road and its
branches, from Oswego
to the State line of New-Jersey,
together with its equipment, franchise, and all lothen property of the
Company appertaining thereto.
It also provides that the issue of bonds shall be
strictly limited to $20,000 per mile of road actually built and in running orders
The Company is prosecuting its work with
great energy, and doiog it ia the most substantial manner. It
expects to have one
hundred and forty-seven miles of its road finished
by the 1st October next, namely; that portion of its main line running from, Q^wego
to Sidney Plains* the
point of intersection with the Albany and Susquehanna Railroad, together with d branch to NeW-Benre7*
Nearly •
have the entire road completed within the
eBsuing calendar year.
.r r In offering tbeBe securities to the
public, it is due to the Company to say thit, in the preparation Of their bondk^and
under which they ore issued,*
they have cheerfully adopted every suggestion that we have deemed essential to render them thethetrtortgtkgd
most perfect
and attractive railroad

Security on the market. The mortgage provides that, in case of default, for a
bopdsL shall become due; and it empowers the trustees,in that event, to take
payment of interest, tlm

property covered jig the mortgage, and to u?e or sell the same for the benefit of the bondholders.

It is well known that

shrewd, far-seeing inventors of sensation gossip have pre¬

London, Saturday, Aug. 21, 1869.
Notwithstanding the absence of so many holiday-seekers, and the
limited amount of business in all
departments, the present has been a
week of
importance. One of the more prominent features is the
decline in the Bank rate of discount to 2£
per cent. This change

could
scarcely have been avoided, for the weekly return shows such a
strength that the prop?rtion of assets
liabilities is greater than for a
very long time past, and is even
further considerable increase of

per cent. The whole
Treasury sold $2,000,000 of coin during the month. The business of the

£17,052,660; but in 1866, a few months after the panic, it was
£24,888,000 ; and in 1865, £21,413,939,
The stock of bullion is
ample, reaching nearly £21,000,000, and the reserve is £11,228,000.
These figures, combined with the circumstance that there is no
activity
in commercial affairs, point to the conclusion that
money cannot be
dear for a long time to come.
As soon as the holidays are over, there
may be some improvement in business ; new loans, talked of for so
long, will be brought forward, and we may have to pay larger sums
for foreign wheat ; but in the present condition of affairs, and with the
continuance of cheap money at Paris, a great revival must be affected
before the rate of interest can be much, or permanently higher.
Unfortunately, a plethor t of money leads to the bringing forward of so
many visionary schemes that, in many cases, the result is a misfor¬
tune ; but, possibly, the loss of confidence on the part of the
public in
joint etock enterprise, and in so-called influential boards of directors, is
so
decided that the i ublic are not yet ready to be again taken in.
There in, however, a large body of people who are seeking for a large
retum of interest from their money, and are running the risk of certain
foreign stocks, which yield as much as 10 per cent interest per annum.
Ten per cent per annum is rather catching, and possibly there will,
before long, be many temptations for those who desire to run great
risks to augment their business.

modation has been to a very moderate extent, and the quotations are

rather less favorable, owing to the down
this side. There has been
more
inquiry for gold for export this week than for some time pas^
and about £280,000 has been transmitted to Paris. There has, however, been a large supply of Australian and American gold in the mar¬
ket, and although the above sum has been sent away, an equivalent
amount has been sent into the Bank, and has consequently augmented
the eupply of bullion there.
As the bulk of the Australian gold is
now received via the Red fc’ea, no important supplies are expected
until the arrival of the next monthly mail, which will be in three
week’s time, for the supply coming forward by sailing vessel is com¬
paratively trifling. At thfe same time the New York Exchange indi¬
cates that our importations of American gold will soon subside, and
consequently our receipts of bullion during the next fortnight will be
small. Some of the leading establishments here are believed, however,
to have a considerable quantity of gold o.i hand, which may be sent
into the Bank or be transmitte t to Paris in the course of the present
week. The following prices of bullion are from Messrs. Pixley & Co.’

Considering, however, that our crop is not an abundant one
lished.
and is not of fine
quality, the rise which has taken place thus early,
will prove beneficial to the country. Thanks to the
rapidity of tele¬
graphic communications, the supply of wheat afloat to this country has
already been very largely increase 1, and it is now estimated that as
much
900,000 quarters of wheat alone are ccming forward at the
present time. This is a large quantity fur this period of (hu year, and
as the
prices now current in cur markets are very remunerative to the
grower abroad, we may expect large importations before the winter seta
in. It is not improbable that, had there been a less complete
system
of telegraphing, a greater advance would have taken
place. Specula¬
tion seems, however, to have been kept in check by the
rapidity with
which the producing markets have been communicated with, and to the
quiet response that has been given to the increase of .firmness in Eng¬
land.
Wheat has now probably seen its highest point, at least for the
present, for our own farmers surely evince a desire to realize the present
quotations; Annexed is the return of imports and exports for this and

Owing to the firmness of the Liverpool cotton market, the trade for
cotton goods at Manchester has been very firm and prices have gene¬
rally improved. A report from that city states:
The firm tone of the market has been maintained to-day mid the upward
tendency of prices continues, hut there lias been less animation fiuce Tues¬
day, and only a moderate business lias been done. The high prices asked
now begin seriously to check the demand ; for, although buyers arc under¬
stood still to have orders by them which they have not executed, they are not
of so imperative a nature aB to require them to give them out at once,
regard¬
less of price. Some parcels of both yarn and cloth have been placed upon
the market, and this to some extent into: feres with the sales of similar goods
by spanners and ma» ufacturers The reduction of the Hank rate ol interest
yesterday had no perceptible effect, and as yet the advance which has t ken
place in clcth is v ry much less than that which lias occurred in b >th cotton
and yarn.
The latter has advanced at much about the same rate as the raw7
material, and since the upward movement began spinners have probably got
their money back again, even if they have not secur d some
profit. Such,
however, is not the case with manufacturers, who are working at a disadvan¬
tage, and not with ut loss. Merchants and shippers appear determined not
to buy in such a way as to excite the market, and shntines have advanced
very slowly. Cotton ttill comes in driblets, and some sur, rise is occasioned
by the small imports* A large number of vessels mint be windoound at sea
somewhere, as there is a Jar^e quantity of East Iadia cotton due in the
Mersey. Meanwhile the stock is reduced within a very small compass, and
with
money at
its present value it is easily handled. 'Consumers, however,

place the roads in leadiness for the superstructure, it was intended to

lumber is known through all the conti¬

practically unlimited. This line will open
new forests, and the

years, at
fifty
least, without scarcity.
Then we are reminded of the
great beds of iron ore and gypsum,
and of the production of salt
(which is very great in the northeastern
portion of Michigan), all of which will contribute to the traffic of
the
line now in
process of construction, which from the business received
from all these sources cannot be
otherwise than profitable.

which it is furnished to them as companies have made arrangements by
rapidly as needed, and from the rapid¬
ity with which rails are arriving both at Battle Creek for the
Peninsular
road, and at Port Huron, for the Port Huron and Lake
Michigan Rail¬
road, we judge the information is correct.
Both roads—the Peninsular from
the West and the Port Huron from
the East, are striving to reach
Lansing with the track at the earliest
possible moment, and when this is done, the whole distance
completed
will be H7 miles.
From present
appearances the track laying forces of the Peninsular
Company will first reach the capital (Lansing), the Port Huron road
having been somewhat delayed in the commencement at the
eastern
end, by the failure on the part of the contractors to
complete the crossing
and connection with the Grand
Trunk Railway at Port Huron.
Concerning the manner in which these roads are being
constructed,
we wish we could
say of all Western roads, as we can of
this, that it
appears to be the determination of the officers that
it shall be done in
the best and most substantial
manner.
The rails used on the Port Huron
and Chicago line are from six to
ten pounds
per yard heavier than these

Investments.—Among the favorable investments now offered
on this market are the
6 per cent gold bonds of the
Rochester Water
Works Company, offered
by Messrs. Utley <fe Dougherty, bankers, No.
11 Wall street.
The large and rapidly
increasing city of Rochester, in
the western part of the
State, with a population of 70,000 inhabitants,
has hitherto had no
public water works, and her large
still
dependent upon wells and cisterns for their supplypopulation is The
of water.
Rochester Water Works
Company,
incorporated by act of the Legisla¬
ture, has partially completed the work of
introducing water into the
city, and requires only $400,000 more to finish this great
enterprise.
The capital stock of the
company is $800,000, in addition to which
$400,000 in bonds have been issued, and $40 >,0C0 more in bonds
are
now
offered, with which the works will be completed. The entire cost
of the works, and the estimated
revenue, are therefore a3 follows :

very sensitive to any circumstances tending to

State Bonds.—This class of securities has
shown but little
movement during the week.
The most active were the new North
Carolina special tax bonds, which have
fluctuated between 50 and
56, with closing sales at 55. The cause of this wide
fluctuation
.
has not been apparent. The Tennessee
bonds, both issues, close
about 2 per cent lower than last
quotations, and the North Caro¬
lines 1 to
per cent. The Southern securities have been in the
miin strong anl devoid of
any special interest.
The following are the
closing prices of Slate bonds compared
with the preceding week :

Miscellaneous Stocks.—The
speculation in
sleeks, though limited, has been rather more active. Outside
operators are beginning to return from the
country, and a more
active market may be witnessed hereafter.
The position of the
money market, however, is at the moment
discouraging to specula¬
tion. Money is too easy on call to render “ short
” operations
safe,
and yet the continuance of the ease is too
uncertain to encourage
buying for a rise. Under these circumstances, operations arc
mainly confined to quick operations for a small difference.
and
The Vanderbilt stocks have showed
more
activity, and at higher
prices, New York Central having ranged at 198& to
207^, and
Hudson River at 187£ to 192. The
highest and lowest prices of
some leading stocks have been as
follows: Reading, 95^ to
97£;
Michigan Southern, 104£ to 10( f; Pittsburg,
104J to 109$;
Northwestern, 82£ to 86£; Rock Island, 114

considerable
speculative activity, and maiuly in the direction of a
higher pre¬
mium, the price this afternoon having touched
13GJ. Merchants
and speculators have sold
largely and borrowed gold to make their
deliveries, upon the supposition that an active
export trade this fall
would produce a lower
premium.
They have done this at a period
when the stock of gold
upon the market is usually declining to the
lowest point reached
during the year; and as there is apparently no
disposition on the part of the Treasury to depress the premium
by
large sales, but rather, as we un ^rstand, an inclination to
encourage
a
high premium at the period of marketing the crop?, a
strong
inducement is presented for other
parties to gain control of the
market supply ; and this
appears to have be-:n accomplished,
giving
a few
large and wealthy holders of gold power to
compel the
“shorts” to pay whaever price
they may choose for the gold
required to pay off tbeir loans. To-day as high as 10
per cent has
been paid “ for
borrowing.”
The fluctuations in the
gold market, and the business at the Gold
Board during the week
closing with Friday, are shown in the fol-
owing table

Receipts.—From Georgia, and to a certain
extent also from South Carolina, our reports this week are much less
favorable, the bng continued hot, dry weather having resulted in an
increase of the rust and Fight referred to in this report for several
The New Crop and the
In some sections of Georgia especially, the intensely hot
August sun has prematurely opened the maturing bolls, and also caused
the plant to shed a portion of the forms which were less advanced.
The explanation of the largely increased receipts at Savannah this week
is fonni in this fact, the heat having forced the cotton into maturity
prematurely, so that picking is progressing with unprecedented rapid¬
ity ; but the later crop is from this very cause likely to be very deficient.
We trust these reports will prove to be exaggerated, but if not, the loss
to the crop in the two States named from this cause will reach from
fifty to one hundred thousand bales. It does not appear as yet that the
same cauaes are operating &9 disastrously in any other State.
Drought,
rust and caterpillars continue to be complained of more or less in all
sectious of the South, but the damage thus far reported, except as
stated above, is immaterial
A further fact is indicated by our table of
receipts for the week, and that is, that cotton in the Gulf States is later
than last year. When the first bales were received it was thought that
even in those sectio :s, the time lost during the wet, cold spring had been
made good; but the present receipts would appear to disprove this
conclusion. For instance, the aggregate Det arrivals at New Orleans
and Mobile during the week ending to-night have been only 1,102 bales
against 3,616 bales for the period last year. A 1 te autumn will there¬
fore be very desirable if we are to secure the increased yield which is
promised from the Gu'f States.
Consumption of Cotton in the United States.—We have received
the past week a letter from the Secretary of the Cotton Manufacturers'
Association, in which he states that in answer to his cal), sent out in
August, asking for information from each mill with regard to its con¬
sumption of cotton, he has received returos from 5,213,665 spindles
out of the 6/700,577 returned in 1867-8—that is, from about 77 per
cent of the whole number. These returns have been tabulated and
compared with those from the same mills the previous year, and the
aggregate results are found to be as follows :

capacity had been reported, instead of the actual consumption, of
14,803,531 pounds, equal to 3 37-100 per cent. A similar allowance
has been made in the above statement.
If the falling off in the con¬
sumption of the mills not reporting is in the same ratio indicated by
those which have reported, the entire home consumption. North and
South, for the year ending August 31, 1869, will be about 411,000,000
pounds, against 450,000,000 pounds the previous year, or a little over
9r 0,000 bales, against 1,00 ',000 bales last year.
We shall be able to
publish our crop report in about two weeks, and can then show how
these figures compare with our returns of shipments to the mill*.

The receipts of winter wheat are so large, however, as to
make a fair average comparison. At to-day’s market the
a dvices from Liverpool caused a marked advance to be asked,
but the close was very irregular.
Shippers found it impossible
to sell exchange, and thus shut many of them out of the mar¬
ket. Private advices from Liverpool stated that our new win-

spring and California wheat did not apply to new red and

GROCERIES.
Fridat Evening, September 3, 1869.
The week has been marked
by a generally steady business
groceries; the fluctuations in the different departments of
the trade have none of "them been important, and are fully
noted under the various heads. Freights westward have been
advanced, and the natural effect has been to quiet the activity
which had lately resulted from that source.
Gold has,
toward the close, exhibited a tendency towards higher figures,
which has also, in a measure, operated to render matters
unsettled ; but there has been, notwithstanding these causes,
a
good uniform trade, with fully supported prices throughout.
Raw Sugars have been steady, and for the last two or
three days with an active demand from refiners, followed by
more liberal purchases on the part of the trade, the market
closes unusually strong at our quotations." Refined Sugars
have been active, and regain at the close the reduction in
price suffered earlier in the week. Only the fine grades
suitable for refiners’ use have attracted any attention, and but
little business has resulted in these. Importers are firm in
their support of prices, however, and quotations are without
in
any reduction.
Coffees are very quiet for Brazil, the transactions having
been very light. West Indian are steady and in good demand,
and some movement ha‘i been made in Java and St.
Domingo.
Teas
were
sold rather
quietly, at unchanged prices.
Imports of the week have included several cargoes of Rio
coffee, and considerable receipts of the same also at Baltimore.
Of other articles the imports are very limited.

the new crop is very large and will soon be coming to the

SUGAR.
The market for both raw and refined Sugars, though somewhat quiet
in the earlier part of the week, have shown a noticeable improvement
in activity during the last two or three days.
Refioers acquired con
fidence from the ready demand for their own products, and supplied
themselves for a day or >so with so much freedom as to materially
strengthen the market, and were followed as they were stocked by the
trade, who purchased with equal readiness from the better grades.
Prices for all kipdeclpee very firm, though ia refined they continue
at the slightly reduced figures, as compared with our last quotations,
which they
at the beginniug of the week. Sales include 5,374
hhds of Cuba, 2jQ72 do of Porto Rico, 130 do Melado, 60 do Barbadoes,
and 10 do of other kinds, with 7,994 boxes of Havana, 6,000 bags of

The light inquiry which has prevailed has been almost wholly for

change in the Dry Goods market, and instead of commenting
upon one variation of dullness or another, as we have been
obliged to do for many weeks past, to state that there is a
positive activity in the market which may be considered as a
fair opening of autumn trade. There was little change until
the first day of September, when the country buyers, who are
numerous in town, began
to purchase with some activity, and
the jobbing houses have since presented a lively bustling
appearance, strongly in contrast with the previous sluggish
condition.

Prints have been very active under an expected advance. The state
of affairs in this line appears to rest on the effect of the controversy
now pending between agents, who wish to advance the price, and job¬
bers who are exerting themselves to prevent any increase in rates.
It
hardly seems advisable to advance the price of prints, taking into
consideration the business of the past three months.
We wish to have
the producers obtain the full value of their goods and receive a fair
compensation; but if prints can be manufactured and sold at current
rates, as jobbers allege they can, and show a fair profit, then no benefit
will accrue by an advance, Dut instead, a loss both to jobbers and agents,
as
buyers Lave not operated any too freely in the goods a9 yet; and it
will have the effect of seriously injuring, for the present at least, what
business there is doing in this branch of trade. Several makes of
