that. She has no millions to ex¬

pend without adequate return ; and our Western forwarders
object to paying tolls.

On that account, despite
the fact that vessels of fourteen feet draught can be built,
which would carry out 40,000 bushels of grain, and bring
back return freight and passengers, the superior facilities en¬
joyed by seaports will enable them to maintain the ad van-’
tage over the ambitious towns on the inland lakes.
We are, therefore, of the opinion that this movement in
the Canadian Parliament is only designed for effect elsewhere.
It would make a good pretext for demanding legislation of
Congress and the Legislature of New York, in order that
Canada may not take away from us the carrying trade. But
with a State debt of fifty millions, and a county debt of
near one hundred millions, added to a national debt of three
thousand millions, we suspect that it will require a lobby
power of unusual momentum to ensure success.
We have doubted the policy, at the present time at least,
of incurring a heavy expenditure for these purposes. The
facilities now existing are abundantly adequate. As declared
by Hon. John V. L. Pruyn at the Detroit Convention, not
more than half the work and agencies
on the Erie Canal are
employed, and for some time past they have been employed
at a positive loss.
These works have never been tested to
their fullest capacity.
Besides the dimensions of the canal
have been increased, one-seventh, this very year.

The

speeches at the Detroit Convention,

will

again occur. It certainly does not argue favorably for
enterprise of any farmer that he will wastefully destroy
his crops or sell them for an unremunerative
price, when
he has the means of employing them to better
advantage.
Cattle could be reared for market; and butter could be
manufactured, which is always sure of sale. There is no ex¬
cuse for such
shiftlessness; and we have no hesitation to de¬
clare that the individuals of whom the
gentleman speaks,

We have little patience with such arguments. Here is a
class of men owning a soil more productive than can
easily
be imagined, who, instead of
exhibiting energy and fore¬

thought to make their labor and its products lucrative, will
sit lazily down, and call on the General Government and the
Legislatures of other States to furnish them gratuitously
or
nearly so, with means of conveying their products to a
distant market, so that they can realize a profit.

“

The trade of the
W^tern States is important to our State and her
commercial metropolis, but not so important that our
people will ever
consent to pay two or three millions of taxes
annually to retain that
trade and maintain the canals. When it comes to that, and come it will

Western shipper may have the privilege of sending his
products to mar¬

Western farmers have two resources, two modes

by which
put their shoulders to the wheel before invoking aid from
a distance.
They can do what their representatives in Con¬
gress have often compelled Eastern men to do, change their
business. Instead of raising grain for a capricious foreign
market, they can produce beef and butter, which are sure to
be always in demand and are less exhausting to the soil.
If
this is not agreeable let them contribute the means them¬
selves to build railroads and ship canals to those points which
they have reason to suppose will provide them with the re¬
quired market. Eastern capitalists, if they do it for them,
will expect profit. If a State does it, she will require tolls.
Western capitalists, if they do it, will have all the profits to
themselves, without contributing to the treasury of other
States or the pockets of foreign stockholders.
As for the charge made by Mr. Aspinall, with a double
aspirate against the State of New York, it is sufficient to re¬
mark that the highest rate of toll on a barrel of flour—two

from the port of New-York to foreign ports, for the week ending
a year, with a
debt more than six times that amount, and a deficit of 13 per cent.
Sept. 5th and since January 1st:
Of the debt
one-half is non-consolidated, two-thirds of this latter

portion being paper money, and the rest Treasury bills and other
bonds bearing interest. Within the last five years about £55,000,000
have been added to a debt now consisting of some £3000,000, the
revenue, however, experiencing a corresponding increase of 14 per
cent in the same time, which, were it not
chiefly derived from spirits,
would have materially tended to
place the public finances on a
Bounder basis. As it is, 42 per
cent of the entire income of the es¬

Proclamation by the President Removing Restrictions
Trade.—The following proclamation was issued Acg. 29 :

on

By the President of the United States of America :
Wherka8, By my proclamations of the 13th and 24th of June, 1865,
removing restrictions in part upon internal, domestic and coastwise in¬
tercourse and trade with the States recently declared in insurrection,
certain articles were exempted from the effect of said proclamations os
contraband of war ; and whereas, the necessity for restricting trade in
said articles has now, in a great measure, ceased, it is hereby ordered
that on and after the 1st day of September, 1865, all restrictions afore¬
said be removed, so that the articles declared by the said proclama¬
tions to be contraband of war may be imported into and sold in said
States, subject only to such regulations as the Secretary of the Treasury
may prescribe.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal
of the United States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington this 29th day
of our Lord 1865, and of the Independence
of America the ninetieth.

By the President:

William H. Seward, Sec. of State.

The Money Market.—The

of monetary

affairs has
during the week. There has been, perhaps,
a
partial contraction of the amount of funds seeking employ¬
ment, but the supply has been equal to the demand, and bor¬
rowers have been able to supply their wants at 5
per cent
on call.
Owing to the dullness of the Stock market the
street ” demand has been quite limited ; otherwise, the rate
of interest would probably have ruled higher. The state¬
ment of the Public Debt for Aug. 31st, shows that on that
day, there was the large amount of $42,782,283 of currency
in the Treasury.
At the same time, there is a steady efflux
of money from this centre to the West, for the movement of
the crops, and to the South, for the purchase of cotton.
These causes tend to prevent any undue accumulation of
money here, and have removed those symptoms of a plethora
which appeared fourteen days ago. It would appear proba¬
ble that, until the money distributed among the
agricultural
population is returned in payment for Eastern merchandise,
and, so long as the large collections of internal revenue con¬
tinue, it would be unreasonable to expect any increase of
unemployed funds. If stock operations should remain quiet
until this return movement sets in, the
probability is that
money will remain easy here; but should the broker’s cliques
be in haste to start up an autumn
speculation, it would seem
inevitable that we must experience a rise in the rate of in¬

United States Securities.—Government securities have
shown a strong upward tendency during the week. The ad¬
vance

of Five-twenties in London to

69@69£, and a contin¬
steady demand for them from abroad has strengthened
that particular stock, and all others have improved in
sym
pathy. The official statement of the public debt on the 31st
ult., was unexpectedly gratifying. The increase of the debt
during the month of August was shown to have been only
$406,296; which is taken as indicating that the debt will
not rise finally above $§^000,000,000, and has
improved the
standing of United States securities generally.

and

Old Five-twenties have become

so scarce

that it is difficult

foreign orders for them; and it is anticipated that
consequently the new issue will soon be in demand for the
foreign market. Five-twenties, old issue, have ranged be¬
tween 1061 and 107£, and close at 107 J ; new issue close at
105J, having ranged at 10o@105£. Sixes of 1881 have ad¬
vanced from 107£ to 108, closing at the latter figure.
Tenforties have sold at 94£@94rJ- and close at 94J. Certifi¬
to execute

proved feeling has not been sustained, and the week closes
a drooping tendency in
quotations, and an absence of
speculative operations. The market is wholly in the hands of
cliques of brokers and railroad managers, who have run up
cates of Indebtedness are much in demand, and have risen
the price of
nearly every stock on the list, and are holding from
98£ to 99. ’ Seven thirties continue dull; the demand
their shares, in
hope of being able some day to unload upon for investment is
nominal, and the price remains stationary;
the outside
public. Those, however, who usually supply the 1st
series close at 99J@99J ; 2nd series at 99J@99£; 3rd

present absorbed in the activity of series at

business operations, and refuse to be
tempted into W allThe following have been the closing quotations for the
street
speculations. The spasmodic fluctuations in prices
leading government series at the beginning, middle, and close
i
jluring the week have been chiefly the result of operations of the week:

,

,

Milwaukee and Prairie du Chien retains the advance real¬
ised last week. The price
has fluctuated between 47£ and

The discount market is quiet. There are fewer merchants’
bills offering than might be
expected from the unusual

depression of prices
stagnation. It would, perhaps, be unreasonable
to
expect any material decline in prices, even should the pre¬
sent stagnancy of the market
continue, for most of the holders
are
strong in resources, and it can scarcely be considered that
railroad stocks are dear at present
prices, while most of them
pay a fair interest upon the principal.
It is generally understood that Mr. Daniel Drew has
pur¬
chased from the Erie Company the 28,000 shares of stock
he holds as collateral upon a loan to the
Company ; the pur¬
chase having been made, it is said, for the
purpose of secur¬
ing his election to the Presidency of the road. It was
rumored that the stock had been
bought at par, and, the
price bounded up to 91£; this statement, however, needs
authentication. A good line of u shorts ” has been
put out
upon the supposition that the price would decline after the
election of officers, which takes place
on the 20th inst. The
price to-day has ruled at 89 a 88£.
The speculation in Ohio and
Mississippi certificates has
been kept up through the week, upon the
supposition that the
visit of Sir Morton Peto, Hon. M.
Kinnaird, M. Leon Lillo,
and several other English
capitalists, connected with the
Atlantic & Great Western road, will result in the union of
the two companies. The sales of certificates have been
very
large; the price has fluctuated between 27 and 30, and closes
at 28, with a
quieter tone.

Gold Market.—Gold has

ily drawn upon ; while they have been no indications during
the week that the Assistant Treasurer fhas been a seller. The
■

gold in the Treasury on the 31st of August was
$45,435,771 ; against $35,337,357 on the 31st of July, show¬
ing an increase during last month of $10,098,414. This steady
drain upon the gold resourcos has much less effect on the
premium than might be supposed—a fact, perhaps largely
owing to their being at present no speculators who avail
themselves of these fluctuations for putting up the price. The

amount of

price has fluctuated during the week between 143J a 145.

COMMERCIAL

EPITOME.
Friday Night,

again an almost total subsidence of that speculative
feeling which we have had occasion to notice as prevailing in great
strength the past two months. The altered tone is partly due to
the extreme prices which have been reached for many staples ; but
it is undeniable that considerable anxiety exists respecting the dis¬
position that may be made of the large surplus of gold now in the
Treasury of the United States. There is undoubtedly a pressure
upon the Treasury department to sell this gold ; and it is believed
by many that sales to a considerable exlent will be compulsory,
through the inadequacy of the collections of internal revenue to
meet the requirements upon the Treasury, and that sales of gold or
the issue of a large batch of certificates of indebtedness will ensue,
producing lower gold or a close money market within a very short
time. These considerations have produced, undoubtedly, the re
lapse of speculative feeling, which we have noticed. This relapse
was somewhat apparent
yesterday, but became very deeided to-day
The features of importance in trade matters for the past week
are not numerous.
The speculation in Breadstuff's was renewed
•arly in the week, but except for choice Spring Wheat and ship
ping State Flours, the advance has been slow, and feebly supported.
Such speculation as there has been, has been wholly on Western
account.
Cotton has been steady.
In Provisions, we have had a very strong market, without much
speculation. Pork and lard are higher, but dull at the advance.
There has been some inquiry for bacon for November and Decem¬
ber delivery, and high prices bid, but no sales.
It is believed that
Great Britain will be a large buyer of our “ hog products” at much
higher prices than previously.
Groceries have been much less active, but with great firmness as
to prices.
Sugar is without quotable advance, but for coffee, teas,
and molasses better prices have been obtained ; not so much has
been done, however, aud

exceeding the current supply, and
sales are generally ahead of production and importation.
Naval stores have arrived more freely and are uniformly lower.
In oils we notice a large advance in linseed without further change
in other descriptions.
There has been a heavy movement in South American dry hides,
partly speculative, at very full prices. Leather has also been ac¬

decidedly more active, but with no advance on
previous asking rates. Holders have simply been enabled to
realize more freely at prices nearer their views.
Petroleum has been active and excited, and all descriptions close
at a very decided advance—two cents on crude, and four cents on
refined. The export demand is very active.
Whiskey closed firm.
Tallow is dull.
The room on the berth for leading

August:
London.—During the past week the weather was very unsettled. In
the early part of it two or three days of sunshine enabled the farmers
to make some progress with their reaping, but since Wednesday the
rain has fallen heavily and most serious injury has been done the grain
cut
From all parts the reports of the wheat crops are bad, and, with
few exceptions, the yield is deficient. At Monday’s market there was a
large atlendance, but the tone of the trade, influenced by the weather,
was hardly so strong as last week ; prices, however, were fully support¬
ed. Choice samples of English wheat sold freely at fully last week’s
rates, while some parcels of new, somewhat out of condition, were diffi¬
cult to dispose of at irregular low prices. American and Canadian re¬
mained unchanged in value. Flour—Barrels are freely sold at 6d to Is
advance. The floating grain cargo trade has continued very active, and
a large number of cargoes have been sold.
To day considerable excite¬
ment was manifested, and an advance of Is to *2s was obtrined for
wheat. Odessa Ghirka was sold at 42s to 4 3s, and Nicolaieff at 41s to
42s per 492 lb9.
Maize is in good demand at late rates. #80s 3d per
492 lbs was paid for Galatz.
At to-day’s market, owing to the continu¬
ance of rain, an advance of Is to 2s was obtained on both Foreign and
English wheat Average of English wheat for the week, 43s Id.
Liverpool.—The Corn trade is influenced daily by the state of the
weather. During rain, speculators are very active, and prices advance.
With sunshine there is a relapse into dullness. At our market ou Tues¬
day there was a good attendance of millers, but they would not pay any
advance on Friday’s prices for Wheat. Flour was unchanged.
Indian
Corn, 6d lower for delivery ex ship. With the return of rain on Wed¬
nesday and Thursday, wheat was in active speculative demand, at a fur¬
ther improvement of 2d to 3d percental. At to-day’s market, with very
fine weather, and few buyers present, scarcely any business was done.
Wheat lost part of the advance, closing very dull at 9s 3d to 9s 6d for
Milwaukie and Amber Iowa, and 9s 6d to 9s 9d for Winter. Flour is
steady, and, in absence of barrels, business is, in sacks, at 36s to 42s for
280 lbs. Indian Corn declined to 31s per quarter for mixed.
Glasgow.—To-day, with telegraphic repoits of fine weather all over
the United Kingdom, the scene has quite changed, all the excitement
has died out, and buyers stand aloof. On the Corn market there was
not much business done, 3,800 bolls of nice Amber Winter Wheat in
store sold at 22s discount, and the finest Amber Spring was offered at
22s 6d on the spot, and to arrive, without finding buyers.
Dublin.—The appearance of settled fine weather makes buyers cau¬
tious, and they only taka for immediate wants. Of new grain wheat
only a few samples appeared, which sold at full prices. Oats in good
supply, condition poor, and Bold at irregular prices. Flour—A moder¬
ate business at full prices for all qualities. Oatmeal inquired for.

rics, and there was a large company of buyers present. The prices
obtained for choice fancy dress good3 and silks were quite satisfac¬

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.

activity in the Dry Goods trade has continued unabated
duriDg the past week. The market has been cleared of goods, and
prices run up to an exorbitant figure. Any remarks as to the con¬
dition of the market will be but a reiteration of those made last
week. As we said then there are no goods in first hands, and con¬
sequently no reliable quotations can be made. Standard goods are
sold ahead at private terms or at value, while purchasers,'either
merchants or jobbers, seem ready to pay any price asked rather than
not have the goods.
Prices are rapidly advancing, with seemingly
no thought of the result, while agents are hurrying forward goods
from the mills with all possible dispatch to meet the emergency.
The city is full of merchants from the West and South-west, and
there is no falling off in the activity of trade with jobbers, notwith¬
standing the twenty-five per cent advance in leading styles of goods.
There must come a check to this somewhere, and it may be well to
keep in mind the effect when it does come. Such an inflation does
not always last, and there is no good foundation to warrant that of
the present but for a short time longer.
