a fair
prospect that permanent ease would supervene if the
disturbing forces which caused the late ^stringency had not
been in part artificial.
But as there has been some locking
up of currency, and as the tight money men have not
accomplished much by their manoeuvres, there is some fear
lest this clique of speculators may make another desperate
effort to accomplish their purposes.
The heavy engagement
for shipping gold by-the European steamer to-day and the
recent drain of the legal tender reserve from the banks may
possibly encourage some movement of this sort. The late
activity and advance at the Stock Exchange increases the
danger of such a contingency. Hence cautious, prudent

living at one trade it is their duty to peace¬

control their employers’ business, nor to intimidate and pro¬
hibit any fellow-miner from earning bread by going to work.
The miners, we say, were ill-advised when they began this
strike. What is it that they claim ? First they say that
the coal product of this country is too large, and that some¬
body must be intrusted with the duty of making coal scarce,
and of reducing the annual product from 25 million tons to
15 millions.
They say that they, the hired workmen, are the
proper persons to use this control, and to produce an artifi¬
cial scarcity; so that high prices may be kept up and coal
may be prevented from becoming cheaper.
The coal com¬
panies and the railroad people, as these miners say, cannot
control the supply, or will not control it, because it is to
their interest to bring as much coal into the market as
possible, Hence, as there is nobody else to cut off the
alleged surplus product, it is a matter of necessity that the

This bold and

The miners had previously been gathered into one compact^

will not concede the supreme control, and their masters say
that mining property will not be safe with control in their
workmen’s hands. Both parties are willing to arbitrate on
other points. But on this fundamental article both are firm.
Meanwhile there is one thing which is too much forgotten
by both parties to this terrible struggle. The mines form

And now, after four months idleness, the miners want to go actory to parties interested in Railroads to see a balance on
he side of increase, although the amount may in itself be
to work again.
The majority have long been anxious to do
nsignilicaut. The month of March, 1870, was not a parso.
But the question is on what terms ?
Arbitration has been often prescribed as a remedy for icularly favorable one for railroad traffic, and earnings were
strikes. But arbitration is evidently inapplicable when, as generally below those of the previous year, a fact which is

Telegrams have taken the place of letters as a means of
communication between merchants, and it is often more
profitable to ship goods by rail at a slightly increased cost,
than to take the risk incurred by waiting a longer time, with

interest in this connection is the subject of steam power on
the Erie Canal, which has been so largely discussed during

all the uncertainties of a

signs of authority, and the disposition of the lower classes to
profit by the disorders which exist, must render the negotiation of
loans on the part of the French a most difficult task.
What
course she will pursue, and what measures
Germany will adopt
are certainly difficult questions to reply to.
Here, we are but
spectators, and are certainly quite helpless in the matter, but the
terrible language contained in the journal of the insurgents causes
much anxiety, as there will unquestionably be a fearful
slaughter
in the streets of Paris, if the Versailles Government should find
itself in a position, and should be compelled to enforce obedience
to the authority of the National Assembly.
The money, there
fore, which would have been advanced to France will be retained,
and will tend to keep the rates of discount down until some new
channel for its employment has been opened. The quotations

$2,952,000, and the short interest, which is shown to be considerable
by the rates for carrying, which have ranged from “flat” to 2 per
cent, these rates being also the quotations to-day. The tone is
strong at the close under the influences noted, but the prevail¬
ing speculative feeling for the week has been rather on the side of
lower prices.

Foreign Exchange.—There have been Uniform firmness iU the
rates of

leading drawers, and 110 has been the asking price for 60
days sterling, some houses not even allowing the usual commis¬
sion off this price.
The reduction of the Bank of England rate to
2$ on Thursday, made in consequence of the non-withdrawal of
specie to the Continent, has seemed to have little effect upon our
rates, as the reduction was probably anticipated. The demand for
exchange has been very fair, though in many cases buyers have
been held in check by the high rates, and orders in brokers hands
could not he filled within the limits named by their customers.
A natural result of this condition of affairs is

in

seen

a

compara¬

tively large amount of specie shipments, the total engagements
for to-morrow’s steamers being reported this evening at upwards
of $1,000,000.
The large imports of foreign merchandise, small
exports of U. S, Bonds or other securities, and the natural falling
off in the supply of Cotton bills as the season advances, would all
seem to point towards continued firm rates and considerable specie
exports.
Cotton exports for the week amount to 83,987 bales—producing
about $5,265,984 in Gold, against 49,051 bales in the same week of
1870, producing $4,610,794 Gold, at the prices then current.

improved, and most articles of importation have
ruled steady, or have slightly improved, but on the great
agricultural staples of the country which depend upon an
export demand, Cotton, Bread stuffs, Provisions and Tobacco,
prices have declined, with unimportant exceptions, and the
decline has not in all cases led to an increased business.
Cotton has declined to 147-3 for Midland Upland. Flour
is easier at 86 G0@6 G5 for good shipping extras.
Wheat
closes weak at 81 57£@1 60 for New Spring. Corn has
declined to 7G@77c for prime mixed, leading to a large busi¬
ness.
Groceries show more activity7 in Coffees at the late
decline, while Sugars have taken an upward tendency.
Tobacco shows a further decline in Kentucky Leaf, with a
dull market. Cutters and dealers have held off, and the sales
for the week have been only about 450 hlids mostly for
export to various parts. Quotations are reduced to 54@6c
for hip's, and 0-^@9c for common to good leaf, but really
very little selling over 74c.
The business in Seed Leaf
Tobacco has nearly come to a standstill, and prices are quite
unsettled. Sales include 250 cases New Ohio on private terms,
100 cases Connecticut Wrappers, crop of 18G9, at 45@52c;
100 cases Old Wrappers, assorted lots, 35@60c. Spanish To¬
bacco has been in fair request, with sales 500 bales Havana at
88c@8l 02, and 94 bales Old Yara, 3 cut, on private terras. .
In most staples of Provisions prices show a further decided
decline, but there is, at the close, some indications of a better
demand, both for export an 1 home use, buyers apparently
only waiting for prices to touch bottom. Mess Pork closed
at 819 25@$19 50;
prime Mess, $17 75@$18 ; prime
Lard, ll^c.; Cumberland Bacon, 9c.; Beef also shows an
irregular decline. Cheese is lower, and shippers have been
able to buy the finer factories at 18c.
Butter has given way

the past

week has continued dull, with prices
There has been neither an active nor a general
demand, while holders have slioxvii increased disposition to sup¬
ply any inquiry there might be. The finer grades have been (in
absence of any spipniug demand sufficient to absorb the offerings),
particularly heavy, and Middling Uplands closed to-night at 144c.
against 15£c. last Friday, and Low Middlings at 13£c. against 14c.
a week ago ; the grades below Low Middling remain unchanged.
The cause of the dull feeling may be found in the continued large
receipts at our ports, with a belief that the planting this year
is not to be materially decreased, while the disturbed condition of
France prevents any industrial recovery there.
Under these cir¬
cumstances holders begin to lose heart, fearing that the long expected upward movement in prices during the spring or early
summer months may fail to be realized.
This feeling is further
reflected in the business for forward delivery.
Prices, on the
basis of Low Middling, closing to-night at 13i£c. for April ; 13 11-16
for May ; 18-fc. for Jun« ; 134c. lor August, August and September
together 13fc., and for September 14c. The total sales of this
description for the week are 19,350 bales including 4(H) tree on
board.
For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this week
16,633 bales including 11,149 for export; 2,901 for consumption ;
240 for speculation; and 2,343 in transit. Of the above 301
bales were to arrive.

three days ami the weather is still unsettled, at Charleston one
day, and at Selma an unusually severe storm is reported. On the

prices have* been

inconsiderable. The close, however, is pretty uniformly in favor
of buyers.
The receipts of flour have continued moderate, but there has
been little done for Europe, and except for the West Indies the
export demand would be hardly worth referring to. The West
India orders have been mainly for grades worth $7@7.25, and have
been partially filled with Southern flours. The shipping extras
from Spring Wheat close somewhat nominal at $6.50@6.75, with
holders seeking bids. The trade demand has been fair, and the
Minnesota brands have brought very full prices. Rye flour has
declined 25c per bbl., and corn meal has ruled very dull. At
to-day’s market, good lines of shipping extras from Spring Wheat
801(1 at $6.65
delivered, hut the bids were generally limited to
$6.60, which sellers were unwilling to accept.
The wheat market shows very

little change.

been somewhat disap¬

pointed, the volume of business proving smaller than usual for
the season, and indications of an improvement thus far amounting
to indications and nothing more.
As a rule, however, we find
holders but little inclined to lose confidence in the future owing
to the almost certainty of exhausted supplies in the interior, the
near approach of the general resumption of canal navigation and
consequent lower freights, and the fact that many goods are nowdown to about the cost of importation. Buyers are not expected
to depart from the caution so long shown, but their actual wants,
it is thought, must make a considerable impression upon the
accumulation.
Our cereals must also begin soon to reach the sea¬
board freely and the money realized on these is likely to he par¬
tially expended on foreign goods for return freights.

GROCERIES.
The calculations

forward only as forced to through actual necessity and

moving in a sluggish, uncertain- manner, with values naturally slack
and frequently so very uncertain as to render quotations little better than use¬
less.
The fear of some political trickery by which the duty will be changed
is undoubtedly keeping a great many buyers back, and the impression in the
market is that no activity can be looked for until the adjournment of Con¬
gress.
Some holders, however, look upon the prospects as rather brighter, and
insist that a quick call is now likely to spring up at any moment in view of the
opening of inland navigation, and the lower rates of freights and the almost'
certainty that the supplies of interior dealers are much reduced. Of Brazils
the accumulations have increased soniew-hat, and the call has been very light
notwithstanding a further modification of prices, and even at the decline the
tone is somewhat slack, though importers assert that they are offering below
the cost of goods, and caunot reasonably be expected to make further conceisions.
The fine grades still embrace the principal portion of the supply, and
this gives ordinary relatively the firmest tone by #c. per lb. There have been
some negotiations on Java in view of recent favorable .foreign advices, and
prices commence to strengthen. West India styles dull and slow throughout
with stocks slightly increasing, but holders at the close were a shade firmer in
view of a better movement from second hands. Sales of 11,025 bags Rio; 2,500
bags Laguayra; 367 Costa Riea; 150 Mexican ; 15,000 mats Java, since resold ’
3,500 bags Maracaibo, second hands; 350 bags St. Domingo; and shipments of
2,075, the latter from first hands. Also, 4,000 bags Rio at Hampton Roads to go
to Baltimore ; 9,943 bags Rio at Baltimore, and 3,200 at New Orleans. At the
close we learn of sales at Boston of some 12,000 mats Java per Rocket. This
reduces the stock in first hands throughout the country to 15,251 mats, the
cargo ef the Knight of Snowden, and infuses a much stronger tone to the mar¬
ket. In fact, on all grades there arc evidences of a more healthy feeling, and
holders are quite hopeful.

jobbers have been doing some little business on nearly all grades, and
as they have the position very fairly under control former prices were obtained
without much difficulty. Still no advance is reported, as buyers do not evince
enough ahxiety to warrant the asking of higher figures. In the way of in
voices the movement has been quite moderate, the distributors in a small way
having already become fairly stocked, and advices from abroad, though en
couraging, failing to stimulate any speculative feeling. At the outports there

report. Thejebbing trade, however, is light, and dealers are not willing to
etock up, and bring only in a small way, as their wants require. Importers
generally look for a revival of trade and an advance in prices, but still to make
sales at present, are obliged to accept buyers prices for most articles. The
purchasing of Layer Raisins by an importer have anparently subsided and
they are very dull jobbing at $2 75, Prunes are very heavy and favor the
buyer. Currants sell slowly.'at the late decline. Sardines move very slowly at
prices showing no quotable decline hut which are not very firm. Citron is
firm and in fair demand. Nuts of all kinds are rather quiet but rule at about
former prices. Fire Crackers have moved quite freely hut close rather easier.

were making their first purchases or replenishing stocks
earlier in the season. The Southern trade has been light, though

in that section

for

city, the retail distribution in the South appears to be active.
The demand from consumers in the interior generally is reported
backward, and dealers are deferring their purchases in conse¬
quence, but we note a moderate improvement in the demand from
small dealers since our last report, and the smaller jobbing houses
doing a better trade. There have been no important changes
in the market since our last review, and the general list of quo.
tations is well maintained, though jobbers are said to be cutting
agent’s prices on many fabrics, as an inducement to buyers. The
sales from first-hands, during the week, have not been large
excepting of staple cotton goods, which are in good request and

assorted lots, and, as
