extent, although at the expense of some reduction in prices. Late
in the month the returning ease in the money market revived tbe
spirit ot speculation, and produced a general advance in the price
of securities, further facilitating the distribution of stocks by tbe
cliques ; and at tbe close of August, railroad shares appear to have
been much moie generally held by brokers and the smaller class of
operators than for some months past. The sa'e3 of the various
classes of shares at both boards for the month aggregate 1,151,003
shares, which is an increase over the same period of last year of
18,227 shares, as may be seen in the following statement:

It will be noted that
the value of the crop runs very irregularly with the
yield. In 1863, when the yield averaged 1.17 tons per acre,
the price was $13 48 per ton, while in 1865, with a yield of
1.44 tons, the price
averaged only $11 63. This apparent
discrepancy, however, is to be accounted for^from the fact
that the crop was 4,800,000 tons greater ^in 1865 than
in
1863. The yield per
acre and the value will be seen from an
examination of the table to vary very widely in the several
-States, the yield being most abundant in New Jersey, Illinois,
Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Kansas.

At Manchester there has also been

firmer tone, but without

material increase of business. But in the wool trade
Cape and Australian wools now
three months since, varying from
Id. to as much as 3d. per lb.
The immense quantity cf colonial wool
in the market—220,000 bales being in progress of disposal during the
present series of sales—combined with the extreme caution in trade
generally, has necessarily made the buyer master of the situation, and
hence the purchaser obtains his wool pretty nearly at his own price.
Nearly the whole of the wool as yet brought forward has been pressed
for sale, the holders being careless about keeping any quantity over
until the November sales.
A3 the manufacturers of the West Riding
affirm that they have not yet consumed the wool they purchased at the
July-August sales, and as foreign manufacturers are taking much less
than their usual quantity, any decided improvement from the existing
depression canDot be expected. In the iron trade there has of late been
a slight increase cf business.
The money market has relapsed into a state of much inactivity, and
a retrograde movement in the rktes of discount has been clearly appar¬
ent, sh rt dated paper, which a short time since could not be discounted
under If and 2 per cent, being readily negotiable at If percent.
That
any advance is likely to take place in the course of the present year is
most improbable, it being considered that the anticipated increase iD the
mercantile demand during the autumn months will be about sufficient to
check the return of the depression too apparent during the last six or
eight months. But although we are not likely, so far as can be judged
at present, to witness a rising money market, yet it will no doubt be
found that, when we come to compare the open-market rates of discount
in October, November and December with those of last year, a decided
and fairly substantial improvement has taken place. Our supplies of
money have certainly diminished since this time last year, and it is only
fair to conclude that, in a period when so much caution is shown, tha
sums spent have been wisely employed, and will, in due course, yield a
fair return.
Instead of If and If per cent, the rate "of discount is now
If, and, although^the improvement is trifling, yet it is an improvement,
and clearly shows that, alth< ugh the movement is slow, the tendency is
towards a better state of thicgs.

TFrom our own Correspondent.]

London, Saturday, August 22, 1868.

Saturday last from 2 to 3 inches of rain have
throughout the country, and the aspect has been completely
changed. The unprecedented drought had almost destroyed the grass,
and caused the foliage of the trees to present a wintry appearance.
Day by day the leaves were falling as if we were just upon the verge
of winter, and many a tree was to be seen, even in the more luxuriant
parts of the country, with scarcely a leaf to ornament it. The wishedfor rain has, however, worked a great change.
The leaves, indeed
continue to fall, but with less rapidity, while the grass has taken so
decided a start that cattle now find more than a sufficiency of food in
the pastures. The warm rain falling upon the hot earth seems to have
promoted an immediate return of vitality, and in the course of next
week we may perhaps see our fields as green aod as luxuriant as at
any former period.
We caLnot, however, expect a second crop of hay>
the season being too far advance i to admit of the grass being dried}
and the hay stacked in anything like condition, but there will beat least
enough for cattle curing the next two months, and, consequently, our
reserve of hay for the winter will be preserved.
The drought has
caused many articles to considerably advance in price. The dealers in
milk have found the greatest cifficulty in finding herbage for their cows,
and fresh butter has advanced to a price only heard of, as a rule, during
the winter months.
Flockmasters and graziers have also experienced
great difficulty in obtaining pasturage for their sheep and beasts, and
large numbers have been sent prematurely to market to be sold at
miaous prices. Tolerably fat lambs have Lund buyers with difficulty
at 7s. 6d. and 10s. each, whereas the price, had there been more food,
would have been 26s. or 30s. per head.
Fortunately, however, such a
state of things now belongs to the past. The cattle markets are no
longer over supplied with half-fat stock, and in many other respects the
position is much more satisfactory. Where good farming is practised
ample supplies of green food will in due, if not rapid, course be obtained,
and then, with the abundant wheat crop we have secured, we may con¬
sider that the future has been well provided for.
The crop of
hops, which at one time promised to be very large
suffered extremely during the last week of the drought.
As there was
no
moisture, either in the ground or in the atmosphere, the plant was
being scorched up while the burr was turning into hop, and consequently
very few hops were likely to be produced. Since the late rains, I am
told that a
good crop is expected. Three weeks ago the yield in many
plantations seemed likely to fall short of 5 cwt. to the acre, but there is
now the
prospect of ten and fifteen cwt., and even one ton of hops to
the acre.
Hop picking has now commenced.

Miscellaneous Stocks.—The stock market has

activity than for several weeks past. The continued
has encouraged operations on the part of the cliques
for running up prices and unloading on the street, which have been
successful in enlisting a considerable outside int rest. As usual,
under such circumstanced, the large sales registered on the stock
lists doubtless represent a considerable amount of what are designa¬
ted “ washed” transactions; but nevertheless there can be little
doubt that a large amount of stocks has passed out of
the hands of the combinations to outsiders ; and to this extent the
current speculations have been a success.
The market has
been led by New York Central, Rock Island, Northwestern and
Erie.
New York Central has been sustained by a renewal of the
old reports of the declaration of a stock dividend; of the truth of
which we have no means of judging.
Northwestern has advanced
4 per cent on a statement that the company purposes commencing
in October to pay quarterly dividends of
per cent. Od Erie the
transactions seem to have been regulated mainly by a purpose to
get down the price preparatory to promoting an advance movement.
The balance of the list has followed the course of these shares, and
the market closes 1@4 per cent above the quotations of last Friday.
The following were the closing quotations at the regular board
compared with those of the six preceding weeks:

Hops have been coming in freely, and sell at a smart
decline. We shall undoubtedly be able to ship considerable
quantities at low prices. The export of Hay to Great Britain
continues, but on a somewhat reduced scale, suitable qualities

general tone quite strong. Cheese is again moving rather
freely, but Butter has become dull.
Wool has been fairly active, and prices tend strongly upward.
Freights generally are dull, but a material advance is ex¬
pected during the next few weeks.

We have had a pretty steady market this week until
to dav
with some improvement in the quotations for the lower
grades
which have been in demand for

shipping. For manufacturing
there-has been considerable doing in the better quat
ities; the liberal offerings to arrive, however, serving to
weaken prices,—Middling Uplands
closing about Cc. off from
last Friday.
Sales of Middling Uplands,have' been effected
at 24^@25c. for November
delivery, sellers option, and 24c
for December delivery, and at these
figures the business his
been large.
Some effect upon early deliveries is expected
from the law abolishing the tax.
It will he remembered'that
the tax was removed on cotton the “growth of
1868,” aud it
is surmised by persons usually well-informed that more
cotton
of 1867 has been held back than is generally
supposed to bo
run in
early w.th the grow th of 1868, and thus escape the
tax.
These facts, together with the forward state of the
crop,
has led to the belief that the receipts will be
unusually lar^e
the coming few weeks.
Even now they are quite liberal for
so
early in the season, and this circumstance, together with
the lower quotations to-day from
Liverpool, would have a
more
depressing influence on prices here, were it. not for the
purposes

long continued rains in Alabama, and all along the Atlantic
coast, which are reported to he working considerable inj"rv.
Sales of the week foot up 11,914 bales, of which 8,189
bales
on

taken

by spinners, 1,706 bales for export, and 2,019 bales

By special telegrams received by us to-night from each of
the Southern ports we are in possession of the returns show¬

unstable values as chronicled for some time
past, has given way to a better tone, and the prospects are
now in every respect favorable for a fair remunerative fall trade.
There have been but few and unimportant fluctuations in
the price of domestics since our last review; there was a
seeming disposition on the part of buyers to await some further
concession on rates at the commencement of the week, but on
the one side, the season was getting late and the requirements
for immediate trade were urgent, while on the other, cotton
showed more firmness than had been anticipated, and jobbers
were consequently strengthened in their views ; so as it became
evident that the lowest point had been touched, buyers placed
their orders with greater freedom, and the volume of trade
