Secretary of the Treasury has yielded pantial assent to
of these opinions, and will guide his
negotiations in the immediate future with a view to their
probable realization. That these anticipations are in some
respects over-sanguine, we do not undertake to deny. But
we may certainly look forward to the consolidation of the
numerous
classes of our government securities at no very
remote period into long bonds bearing not more than five per
cent interest, and worth par in the market or more.
Among the subordinate causes of this advance is the ease
in the money market.
This is due to a multitude of influ¬
ences, prominent among which, is the accumulation of cur¬
rency here, and its flow to this and the other great financial
centres.
The notes of the small, country National Banks are
concentrating themselves in our great cities, and especially
in New York; and the plethora hence resulting has caused
the agitation once more of the plan for securing the redemp¬
tion of bank notes in this city.
We have often expressed
our
approval of this scheme, which we regard as necessary to
secure the stability, permanence, and satisfactory
working of
our National Banking system.
It is reported that Congress
will in a few days adopt some measures for enforcing redemp¬
tion.
Another cause of the ease in money is conected
with the approach of summer, the dread of cholera, and the
amount of unemployed capital which is lying here and seek¬
ing temporary investment.. The most important cause
of all, however, is the revival of public confidence since the
passage of the loan bill, and the practical declaration of
Mr. McCulloch’s financial policy. The general belief seems

These deposits

ducing the rate of interest has been applied.
At present
they carry 5 per cent; but on the 1st of May the rate is to
be put dowrn to 4 per cent.
By the banks of this city about
25 millions of these certificates are held; vThile the remaining
15 millions are distributed among the banks of Boston, Phil¬

adelphia, Baltimore, and St. Louis. It has been matter of
regret that this low ering of the rate of interest did not take
place some time ago.
The easy condition of the money
market has rendered it^nevitable now’; and w'e are informed
that at an early day the 80 millions of temporary deposits
wdiich are not on Clearing House Certificates, but are pay¬
able on ten days’ notice, will also be reduced to four per
cent or perhaps to a lower rate still.
These temporary loans w’ere first authorized by the act of
25th February, 1862, the amount being limited to 25 mill¬
ions of dollars on which no higher rate of interest w’as to
be paid than 5 per cent. On the 1-Sth March, 1862, 25 mill¬
ions more were authorized by Congress; the rate being still
5 per cent.
By the act of the 11th July following, 100 mill¬
ions was fixed as the aggregate, and the authority ovas en¬
larged on the oOth June, 1864 to 150 millions, the maximum
rate of interest being raised to 6 per cent.
These four acts
ot Congress, we believe, are all that pertain to the tempo¬
rary deposits; and it will be observed that all w’ere passed
under the pressure of financial embarrassment, at a time
when it was of the highest possible moment that the National
Treasury should be replenished by every effective and judi¬
cious expedient which could be devised for the purpose. By
means of this demand loan arrangement the use of a large
sum has been
secured to the Treasury for the past four
years, and the amount could not perhaps have been so easily
obtained in any other w7ay. Another advantage of this sys¬
tem wTas that whenever any of those sudden spasms occur,

And what ad¬

obliged to’keep the money on hand as an inert, burdensome,

.
.
Moreover, these temporary loans are more conducive to
inflation and more preventive of contraction than any other
part of the interest-bearing public debt; for the least per_
turbation in the money market causes the dormant currency
which has been locked up in the Treasury to flow7 out and to

business to the extent of

Mr. McCulloch’s recent movements indicate that he sym¬

pathises with these view’s, and that he intends to reduce con¬
siderably the amount of these mischievous deposits as soon
as it can be safely and conveniently done.
And if they should
fall by degrees to 50 millions during the next six months, it
will be regarded in financial circles as a wholesome conserva¬
tive change.
Howrever well adapted this form of loan may
be to meet some of the financial emergencies under which it
originated during the w’ar, the necessity ceases with the re¬
turn of peace.
As has been already hinted, w7e would not
recommend that the w7hole of the 8120,000,000 should be

suddenly paid off even wrere it possible, for the perturbation
incident to the funding of our debt and the reformation of
our currency may not seldom put our financial machinery to
such a strain, that the old safeguard against panics which
these loans have so usefully been heretofore, may again prove
of inestimable service.
But what should be done, and what
Mr. McCulloch undoubtedly intends to do, is by careful slow
movements to reduce this form of our national indebtedness

quarters have been large, the improvement in prices which was then
established has been fairly maintained during the present year. The

serious disapointment to many persons, who anticipated a rapid advance
in price during the month of February and March; but the figures given

importation and a high rate of discount, could not possibly have exhib
ited any degree of activity.

of

generation in which it is published.
To attempt a criticism of the literary merits of the numerous pieces
of which it is composed, written by fifty different authors, and
many of them anonymous, would be impossible.
But with the
object and character of the book we are much pleased.
The design of the editor, as stated at length in his preface, was
to give from the mass of poems elicited by the war all that appeared
worthy of preservation on any account. In making the selection,
he adds, “ poetical merit has not been the ouly consideration.
Verses which celebrated at all worthily, or with spirit any import¬
ant event in the war—which expressed truthfully any mood of
popular feeling, or which embodied any type of character, whether
enduring, or the transitory creation of the circumstances of the day
—have been deemed peculiarly fit for this collection.”
The compiler commences with the assertion that “ it is generally
true that great events do not inspire great poems,” and fortifies his
proposition by references to history. An additional confirmation of
the same might be found in the signal failure -of all our poets to
produce a poem, within a given length of time, which should have
such merit as to become a “ national anthem.” The failure, perhaps,
might have been anticipated—the plan being similar to that pro¬
posed for the entertainment of a dinner party, to which the host in¬
vited a distinguished guest, and informed him in presence of his"
company, that the party had been given to listen to his well-known
wit, and requested him to M please begin.”
But the poems produced by the war, though none of them
great poems,” are of inestimable value as historical pieces, and as
expressions of the feelings of the people on both sides in the late
contest.
In fact they contain the story of the whole con¬
flict. The feelings of the Northern people on the passage of the
first secession ordinance—a feeling chiefly of sadness and deep re¬
gret—appears in the poem of Oliver Wendell Holmes—“ Sister
Caroline.” The perfect torrent of excitement at the North in
April, 1861, when the United States flag was fired on at Fort Snmter, our troops were attacked in Baltimore, and the very capital of
the country threatened, is pictured in these verses. So also “ the
sickening anguish of despair,” lelt by the soldier when he sees his
lines broken up aud retreating, hears the shout of a victorious
enemy pressing them back, and first appreciates that the great bat¬
tle has ended in a defeat, a rout, and feels as if the destruction of
the army, the capital, the Government itself had come, and he
would call on the mountains to fall upon him, is also forcibly given
on these pages; the dislike to Great Britain for her truly despicable
hostility toward us in the day of a calamity ; the camp song sung
by a million of men on the march and by the camp fire ; the story
Of particular battles and exploits ; the gieat triumph of the people
when finally the end of the war seemed to appear, and last of all the
overwhelming grief of the whole Northern people after the murder
of their President and leader, all find a place in this volume.
The chief poems and ballads of the Southerners are also included
in the collection, so.that the book is not a representative of one side
only iD the contest.
To every one who was interested on either side iu the great rebel¬
lion, the u Poetry of the Civil War ” has much that will stir up his
feelings, and recall most vividly the scenes and emotions of that four
years of strife in which the most powerful passions of a nation, were
exercised in alternate distress and fear, in hope and exultation.

securities,” has made advances to the extent,
of neatly four millions sterling.
While the circulation of notes has been
increased by nearly two millions. The stock of coin and bullion has
not declined in any material degree, but there is a considerable falling
off iu the reserve of notes and coin, chiefly resulting from the increased
as

shown under the head “

supply in circulation. The reserve of notes and coin on the 2let ult. was
£3,819,000, but during the present week it has fallen to £6,919,832.
The changes are unquestionably of an important character, but as they
occur
at a period when such alterations are generally expected, the _
hope, although certainly and necessarily deferred for a short period, of a
5 per cent, rate is not entirely dispelled.
At this period of the year
and previous to the payment of the dividends, considerable amounts of
money are

borrowed

on

stock. But when the dividends shall have been

paid, which will be in the course of a few days, the heavy advances
made by the bank during the last two weeks will be repaid by the bor¬
rowers.
Hence, the bank statement is expected soon to show a consid¬
erable decrease in the amount of securities held, and were it not for
the increased demand for silver for remittance to the East, a decline in
the rate of interest might be expected.
This heavy drain of silver has
long been, as is well known, the primary cause of the high rate of dis¬
count prevailing here during the last four years, and as the demand hae
recently been on a more extensive scale than for some weeks past, the
event has attracted some little attention.
The advauce in the price of

time the rate of discount at Hamburg, owing to an augmented
demand for silver in that city, has risen one half per cent. At present it

quite certain what will be the extent of the India drain. Large
shipments of cotton have, indeed, been made from Bombay and Calcutta
during the present year, greater in fact by one hundred per cent, than
at this period last.year, and the exports from Bombay, according to ad¬
vices received to the close of last month, were progressing at the rate of
22,000 bales per week. In addition to that, the price is 2d. to 3d. per
pound higher than in 1865, and it may therefore be presumed that the
demand for silver in payment of these supplies will be somewhat ex¬
tensive.
Under these circumstances it seems certain the bank will, for
the next few weeks, have to follow a most cautious policy, and to watch
narrowly the state and prospects of the cotton trade, *as well as of the
market for silver. Appearances at the present moment are certainly
against a lower rate of discount, although the absence of the introduc¬
tion of new companies iu any number, and of foreign loans, leads one to
anticipate in some measure a more favorable movement.
There has been a fair demand for accommodation both at the Bank
of England and in Lombard street during the week.
Out of doors, the
rate is one-eighth—in some instances one-quarter per cent—below that

British Colonies and possesions has fallen off; so far as the continent is

inquiry for foreign wools has increased, though not in an
equal ratio. The return of shipments presents two im portant features,
viz.: a very large decline in the Belgian demand, and an important in¬
crease in the
shipmen s to the United States. The high price of wool
here has attracted considerable supplies from Belgium, and the trade be¬
tween Belgium and England has, in consequence, been reversed.
The
Belgiaus have long been important buyers at the public sales held in
London; but recently they have only taken such qualities as are
especially suited to their manufactures, and which are not obtainable in

Mr. Chase and Mr. McCullock, and leave the caudid public" to judge for

We publish the above table just a

marked that we should “ not be surprised to hear of subsequent cor¬
rections.” No one could expect, however, that the corrections would
take on such a shape as we have now presented.

private bankers there is a plethora of funds seeking employment, and
ease

which the demand from brokers and merchants is insufficient to ab¬

Groceries have beeu active.
In Rio Coffee the sales the past week

fully 35,000 bags, deluding 15,000 bags last Saturday, and
bags today. There is a scarcity of the finer qualities
and the sales of this week have been of the lower grades ; the bulk
of transactions being lS^c. gold in bond, with 12f@15£c. the entire
range. Other coffees have been quiet. Sugars havegiven way slightly,
drawing out a better demand from both refiners and the trade. The
transactions include a cargo of Manilla sugars at 9£c. currency. Stand¬
ard crushed has declined to 15|c. Molasses sold very largely, but the
course of prices has been in favor of the buyer, and at the close the de¬
cline may be quoted at 2^@5c. per gallon.
An auction sale of teas on
Tuesday showed a further decline of 5c. for Oolongs, making 10c. since
the March sales, and we quote cargo grades at the close at 70@75c. per
lb. The auction sale to day went off at some improvement. Spices

fluctuating, and closes lower. Fruits and fish more
active and tending upward.
Freights have been very dull. Nothing of consequence, except cot¬
ton, has been shipped to Europe ; rates for grain are very low, and for
bacon and other weight, (which is wanted for ballast to the cotton ships,)
the tendency is downward.
Tobacco continues very dull. The receipts are latge and stocks ac¬
cumulating. Prices are held so high as to have brought the export
business almost to a stand still.
Thus it is, that the receipts at this
market since the 1st of January last are largely in excess of last year,
and the exports are diminished in about the same proportion as the receipts are increased.
But it seems to be a peculiarity in our markets, under the
existing
financial situation, that while a slight deficit in supply, and the
average
demand lead to the most extravagant prices ; yet. no surplus in
supplies
or
deficiency in demand is sufficient to damp the courage of holders, who
suffer their wares to lie in sto|£ rather than make the concession in
prices, which may be necessary to stimulate consumption or export.
Where this line of policy will end—whether it will be overturned
by
a close
money market, or defeated by such an accumulation of stock,
as will be i o
longer tolerable, or whether the wants of buyers will
compel them (as in the case of breadstuff*) tp meet the views of holders

Spirits turpentine has sold moderately, and rosin largely for export.
Tar is in large stock and dull. Crude turpentine and pitch without es

There has been some movement in oils ; linseed oil has advanced. Crude
whale and crude sperm oils are firm. Iu whalebone the recent sales
foot up s me 60,000 lbs., mainly Arctic at $1.30 per lb.
Metals have been irregular. The resumption of work by the foundrymen at
Troy has led to more demand for pig iron, and the sales have
been large, closing at 42@44 for No. 1 American and Scotch
pig, ex
ship. Spelter has also advanced ; but copper dull and lead quiet. Tin
has declined with large sales of sheets for export to London at 21 @22.
East India goods have been without feature,

at 24c, currency.
Dry hides have declined ^c per lb, but for the last
day or two have beeu quite active.
The decline in leather has brought out a better demand from the
trade, with some business for export to Liverpool, in over-weight Orinoco.

Liverpool Cotton market has been characterized by great heaviness and
during the week. Spinners have operated to
a very limited extent, and prices are quite Id. to l%d. per lb. lower. The causes
of this dullness are, first, the large importation; secondly, the rapidly accumula¬
ting stock, the necessary result of large arrivals and small transactions ; third¬
ly, the continuance of good receipts at ports in Southern States ; fourthly, the
large quantity of East Indian cotton afloat, viz., 689,000 bales, against 341.500
bales last yeir; and, lastly, the receipt of
intelligence from Bombay represent¬
ing the shipments from that port as on an extended scale, or at the rate of quite
22,000 bales per week. The shipments from Calcutta have also been considera¬
bly augmented, and it may safely be asserted that, even with the above large

Metropolitan Insur¬

Company in another colamu calls attention to the plan of insuring
dwellings by receiving a deposit which may be withdrawn at pleasure,
in lieu of the annual payment
of premiums. This system has long
worked satisfactorily in Philadelphia and in some parts of Europe, and
is claimed as an advantage, as it save9 much trouble, the insurance re¬
quiring no care after it is once made, until it is discontinued. The cost
by this method is also codsiderably reduced. The Metropolitan is one
of our best companies.

of 16 of the
failing off in
as against their earnings
principal roads equivalent to 6.22 per cent
In March, 1865.
This result is significantly confirmatory of our
remarks ou the same topic in our last week’s issue, to the effect that
so far as the reports for March had come in, the average gross
earnings appeared to equal very nearly those for the corresponding
month of last year. The greatest falling off has been in the Il¬
linois Central, the Erie, and the Pittsburg, Fort Wayue and Chi¬
cago lines, and at that time none of these had reported.
Yet, in¬
cluding these, the average loss is so small as even to constitute a
vast gain over the popular pre-estimate, or what was expected-; and
the general result so favorable as to have materially affected the
stock market, as is evidenced iu the almost general appreciation in j
railroad shares.
Peace has its triumphs as well as war. The war j
having ceased, the peculiar business it created has ceased also. But |
a healthier and more regular business is last taking the place of I
that which has been lost, and the railroad business of the country '

For the past nine years the cash dividends paid to
Stockholders, made from ONE-THIRD of tne net

profits, have amounted in the aggregate toj
One Hundred and Twenty-one and a
half per-cent.
Instead of issuing a scrip dividend to dealers, based
on the principle that all classes of risks are equally
profitable, this Company will hereafter make such
cash abatement or discount from the current rates,
when premiums are paid, as the general experience
of underwriters will warrant, and the nett profits re¬
maining at the close of the year, will be divided to
the stockholders.
