and the United States have formally notified the Powers
that the re-assembling of the Monetary Conference must

public opinion in England time to ripen.

classes, in

bare rock. In this way it happens that during the historical
period the quantity of detritus borne onward by the Po has
much increased ; the level of its bottom is, therefore, more
rapidly raised, and whereas between the years 1,200 and 1,600
the delta advanced on an average only about twenty-five yards
a year, the increase from 1,600 to 1,800 has been more than
seventy yards.
At last a season comes like the present, when long-continued
rain falls alike on mountains and plains, and the floods, swelled
by the rapidly-thawing glaciers, steadily increase the volume of
the rivers, till at length they rise to the very brim of their
embankments; and in spite of the long-continued precautions
of man, the rivers, and most of all the Po, have broken across
their prescribed bounds and whelmed in sheets of water hundreds of square mile»of the fertile plains of Lombardy.
When these vast lakes subside, or are absorbed b^ the air
and the soil, who can estimate the havoc and destruction produced by the whelming waters, out of which the tree tops and

churches, have been swept away, and sand and gravel bury the
meadows ; and many a year must pass before the twenty
thousand families now houseless shall, by unremitting labor,
restore the ravaged fields to their old fertility. It is a hard
thing to say, but such is one of the almost inevitable results of
man's struggle with great rivers, when for ages he has striven
to confine them. But by foresight and skill much may be
done; and if the great old forests of the mountains were
allowed to reassert themselves, the recurring danger would in
time become less than now. But to be ever nearly tafe, dredging must, if possible, be added to embanking, so as to keep
the long incline of the river bottom at an average level
otherwise the time in the far future must come when nature
will of necessity overcome even the best-directed efforts of

A 6 per cent rate of discount usually impedes business;
but in addition to the fact that the rate was 6 per cent, apprehensions existed that a still higher quotation was possible. Six
per cent has, however, accomplished quite as much as was expected of it; and now that the money market has again become
easy, more activity is manifestng itself in several quarters.
Numerous fresh schemes have been introduced to public notice,
and in mercantile circles business is reported to be improving.
The time, however, will soon be arriving when the crop prospects will begin to exercise an important influence, and, until
something definite is known with regard to them, a considerable degree of caution will be shown. It is not only the crops
of cereals and of,food generally that have to be taken into~account, but manufacturers are anxious to ascertain what will be
the probable yield of the raw materials in which they are interested, and on these subjects information will soon be forthcoming. As far as cereals in Europe are concerned the prospect

nent, has been remarkably propitious, the great danger being
that, after a brilliant and warm March, we may have a cold
spring, which, in the present forward state of vegetation, would
be injurious to the agricultural interests. Such a winter as we
have had, more like constant spring, and such a March as the
present, which is more like May, have been scarcely known,
and a year of plenty is looked forward to.
There has been a fair demand for money for short periods
during the week, and 3}^ to 4 per cent is obtainable even upon
the best security. The supply of bills in the discount market is,
however, very moderate, and with an increasing amount of
unemployed capital, the rates of discount have tended downter.

Spring sowing will soon be completed, and the work has thus
far progressed under the most favorable conditions. Ample
importations and fine weather cause the wheat trade to rule
extremely quiet, but towards the close of the week there
was rather a better demand for the finer sorts of produce.
Vegetables in season are abundant and cheap, and large quantities are arriving from the West of England, Jersey and
France. The following quantities of grain are reported to be

During the week ended March 11 the sales of home-grown
wheat in the 160 principal markets of England and Wales
amounted to 32,063 quarters, against 84,685 quarters last year

New York on the first of April for Amsterdam,
where hd will make a final report and settlement to the Putch
bondholders whom he has represented for several years past.
The report of the operations of this railroad for 1881 was issued juat as the property was about to be turned over to the
new purchasers, the Ttxas & St. Louis. The .year 1881 showed
a deficit of ?17,868, against a surplus of $27,507 in 1880, owing
to the large expenditures for new eonstrnction and equipment.
During the year, $18,175 was paid out for new steel rail and

has bought 33,500 shares of Mutual Union stock, and George P.
Baker, President of the First National Bank, and George S.
Scott, own enoueh more stock to make the whole amount 52,OOo'
shares. The entire capital stock of the company is $10,000,000,
so that these three men own an absolute majority. They hare'
united in an arrangement by which the Mutual Union will be
operated entirely in the interest of the Western Union Company. The agreement was signed last night. The 52,000
shares of stosk have been placed ia one pool, and, under certain
restrictions, will be used to insure harmony between the two
companies. The litigation in which the new company has become
involved is to be discontinued. The lines of the company are
to be extended in accordance with the plans of the present
management, but only so far as the extensions will be to thfr
advantage of the Western Union." * * *
"The bulk of the stock secured ia the interest of the Western
Union was obtained from the estate of the late John 0. JSvaas,
who was the original president of the compa»y, and its most
earnest promoter. Other amounts of stock are understood to
have come from George William Ballou & Co., the fiscal agents
of the company, and from John G. Moore & Co., the contractors.
The price paid for the stock has not been made known, but it
was considerably less than |10 a share, or less than $500,000
for the whole 52,000 shares. The purchasers also secured a
considerable amount of the company's bonds, estimated at
nearly $2,000,000 at their faee value."
On Thursday it was announced that the American Cable
Company had made a pooling arrangement with the English
companies by which it receives 22 per cent of all gross earnings, and on this the American cable has been leased by the
Western Union Company at 6 per cent on $10,500,000 capital.
Of this latter $7,000,000 is the amount paid in and no more will
be called.
Messrs. Winslow, Lanier & Co., who have been of late years
one of the most prominent firms in negotiating new loans, are
now offering the five per cent 50-year gold bonds of the new
Columbus Hocking Valley & Toledo Railway Company a consolidation which includes the old Columbus & Hocking Valley
Company, which was one of the most successful in the West
and a pioneer in the Hocking Valley coal fields, and which
through all the years of depression paid dividends on its stock.
Five per cent bonds of high character are in demand, and
Messrs, Winslow, Lanier & Co. are issuing these bonds at 95.

" The percentage of operating expenses (including taxes) to
gross earnings in 1880 was 4696; in 1881, 51 '45. The increased
rate of operating expenses in 1881 was caused by the additional
expenditure, over the previous year, of |590,000 for steel rails

reduction in the expenses of its working and maintenance."

"During the year considerable expenditures have been made

$19,050 legal expenses incurred in and growing out of the discharge of the company from the Court, the preparation of the

the annual requirement of the road. The net cost of 200 tons
of steel rail is $10,000. Deduct, therefore, $29,000 on these
accounts, and we have the operating expenses for the year,

Galveston Houston
& Henderson.— The statement published
in Galveston that Mr. C. P. Huntington had purchased a controlling interest in this road was not qnite correct. Mr. Huntingon has obtained from the parties in control, an equal right
to use the road for running all his trains between Houston
and Galveston, by the payment of one half the expense of
maintenance and six per cent per annum on one half of a stated
sum agreed upon as the cost of the property; what that sum is,
has not been made public.

$8,819,745, for which new bonds have been issued amounting to
$2,598,850. The amount of bonds named in the act not funded
before the expiration of the time allowed is $3,907,300, and it is
probable that at the next session of the General Assembly the

—A
meeting of the real estate owners

by the Receiver, Thomas H. Messenger, that trains would be
discontinued March 31. The road is six and one-half miles
long, and the termini are Flushing andGreat Neck. Receiver
Messenger said at the meeting that the road could not be made
to pay as it had been run, and he presented three propositions
as follows

Second. To lease the road to the Long Island Company, or to run it as

Third. Te abandon the road altogether as a railroad.
Mr. J. R. Maxwell, Vice-President of the Long Island Railroad, afterward told the committee that his company would buy
the North Shore and pay a fair price for it. The road was not
worth over $40,000.

KBCEIPT3 FBOM THE Plabtations. The following table is
prepared for the purpose of indicating the actual movement each
week from the plantation?. Receipts at the outporta are sometimes misleading, as they are made up more largely one year
than another, at the expense of the interior stocks. "We r«ach,
therefore, a safer conclusion through a comparative statement
like the following. In reply to frequent inquiries we will add
f.hat these figures, of course, do not include overland receipts or
Southern consumption; they are simply a statement of the
weekly movement from the plantations of that part of the crop
which finally reaches the market through the out-ports.

1880-81 were 5,346,396 bales; in 1879-80 were 4,759,895 bales.
2. That, although the receipts at the out-ports the past week
were 54,035 bales, the actual movement from plantations was
only 33,599 bales, the balance being taken from the stocks at
the interior towns.
Last year the receipts from the plantations for the same week were 63,609 bales and for 1880 they
were 40.991 bales.
Amoust of Cotton in sisht March 31.— In the table below
we give the receipts from plantations in another forna, and
add to them the net overland movement to March 1, and
also the takings by Southern spinners to the same date, so aw to

DiAE Sir— I inclose herewith two samples of cotton which
grows in this country, aad concerning which I shonld like to
fiave your statement as to its relative merits and value in New
Tork.
The one marked "T" Is from the State of Tolima, and that
marked "C " from Cnnduiraiarca. I jndga them to be equal.
The plant is not cultivated, and grows to the height oi tress
twelve and fifteen feet.
On the t<ame plant I find the flower in blossom, the fruit and
the cotton, which 1 am told is the case the entire year.
If you will l>e kind enough to address rae, care of Francisco
J. Cisneros, Esq., liarranquilla, U. S. of Colombia, I shall re-

The
result in the case above mentioned appears to have resulted
successfully, as in a note just received from the carder of the
company, he says: 'The compressed sea Lslands is now going
through the second intermediate and so far works well, much
better than soft bales.
There is 3 per cent less waste in the
compressed bale than in the uncompressed.'
Does a Ship Grow ?—The Norfolk Landmark of March 25,
on the 24th instant the British bark Condor was
cleared from that port, by Col. James L. Harway, for Liverpool.

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.
Fridat. P M., Maroli 31, 1882.
There was an active undertone in the dry goods jobbing trade
the past week, and, while department goods were freely distributed at fairly remunerative prices, there was a good steady
business in the most staple fabrics of domestic production ;
and, notwithstanding the lessened demand from many of the
Southern markets, it is more than probable that leading jobbers
in this city have sold more goods since January 1, to date, than
during the corresponding period of last year. The demacd at
hands was irregular and mostly governed by actual
requirements ; but there was such a constant call for small
reassortments of both foreign and domestic fabrics, that the
