One of the leading topics in' financial circles at present is the continual rise in government securities both here and abroad. The news by the Persia of the advance of Fivetwenties to 74 was all the more gratifying ot this rapid improvement in the gov¬ beginningto be a frequent subject of dis¬ whether a 5 per cent bond of the United States will for par in the market before the time arrives when the Seven-thirties will mature and be fundable into 6 per cent 483 THE BANKERS’ GAZETTE AND COMMERCIAL TIMES.

Five-twenty bonds. ly diffused and so This opinion has become so wide¬ firmly held that, in connection with other circumstances, it has caused considerable advance, both in the Seven-thirty notes and in the Ten-forty five per cent long It is even said, we know not with what truth, that bonds. a the 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 the substantial accuracy it took place securities, both British and foreign, were unusually depressed, and when the gloom was so to be that for several months to come he neither will nor can general and so peivading that even Consols had declined to do anything which shall paralyze business, or produce any 86f.

And the replies that are fur the most part j given, by men of experience, are usually favorable; their ar¬ gument being that Government will not disturb this ease, for the reasons above stated ; and that in no other quarter of the financial horizon is there a speck of cloud to threaten danger, j The position of our financial affairs, however, is so anomalous | that it is impossible to forecast the future, and persons of money orable stored. how’ever, that the demand loans, for the to venture on risks beyond their assured capital. In fair very reasons wre have detailed, are capable of producing ! weather, says the adage, the wise mariner prepares for the great occasional embarrassment to the Treasury. For in any emergency the 8120,000,000 now’ on deposit might sud¬ storm. denly run down to 880,000,000, or less. Consequently, there is a constant indispensable necessity for the keeping of REDUCTION OF INTEREST ON TREASURY DEPOSITS. an adequate balance always on hand. This is attended with As we recently announced would probably be done, Mr. small means will do well not to be induced to over-trade, or given notice of a reduction of the rate of in¬ terest on part of the temporary loans held in the Treasury subject to the demand of depositors. These deposits amounted altogether on the 1st of April to the very large sum of 8121,751,970; of which about 40 millions are on Clearing House Certificates payable on call in legal tender notes. It is to these certificates which are used by the banks McCulloch has to make their daily exchanges that the experiment of re¬ 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, It is easy to see, have to pay interest for a large sum of w’hich w’e need for no other purpose than to meet any possible demand from the depositors. And what ad¬ vantage is it to us to pay interest for deposits while vre are obliged to’keep the money on hand as an inert, burdensome, unemployed reserve ? . . 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 great expense, as we idle money become active in the channels of business, inflating prices, neutralizing any previous efforts at contraction. For other reasons it has been long regarded by some of our wisest financial authorities as a mischievous and and these and many unsound policy for the Treasury to carry on the banking paying interest on demand loans. 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 within more safe and less unw’ieldy dimensions. question is asked, how we shall pay off these tem¬ porary deposits if they flow out so rapidly that the balance accumulating in the Treasury is not large enough to meet them. It has been replied that. 822,000,000 more of cur¬ which, in an over-stimulated and excitably feverish money rency are authorized to be emitted for this purpose. But to market, under a redundant and depreciated currency, are but issue more paper money is to depreciate the currency, a per¬ Moreover it too common, a safety valve wras found for the relief of our nicious policy which is of course inadmissible. be convenient to raise the necessary amount by the over-strained financial machinery.

If the present situation is allowed to continue rebel incursions upon our Eastern frontier, and the supplying commanded a of contraband from Nova Scotian ports, it is not surprising people should be willing to allow the Canadians a learning that their rule of neutrality can be made to work two ways. The extent to which our neighbors have been already tantalized by apprehensions of invasion is, however, quite sufficient to satisfy the popular desire for re¬ taliation ; and the public sentiment is consequently becom¬ ing daily more decided in favor of the maintenance of a strict neutrality. It may be questioned whether the action of the Government has kept pace with this change in public that our chance for If the authorities have taken sentiment. measures for the prevention of any incursion of United States citizens upon the provinces, they have been, until within a day or two, of a very undemonstrative character, excepting the reported dispatch of a strong squadron to the Eastern waters; which, however, may as much contemplate the protection of our fishermen as restraint upon the Fenians.

After a little more passive acquiescence on the. part of the government, we may witness an active filibustering war raging along a large portion of the provincial frontiers. It may then be found necessary to send to the border ten or fifteen thousand troops ; and who shall say that the gravest complications might not grow out of such a proximity of ex¬ plosive elements ? Little of intelligent purpose, or charac¬ ter, or resource as there may be in the Fenian movement, yet there is unquestionably in it a concentration of brute force capable of effecting much mischief; and its members should be promptly given to understand that they will not be permitted to imperil the peace and the commerce of the United States, by using our soil or our wTaters for purposes of hostility against a people with whom we are on terms of peace and good will. without remonstrance .

March 21. to 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. “ , Catfflt JHonetarg attir Commercial!

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 1 during the present week is about £ of a penny per ounce, and at 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 silver the same 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 of the Bank, and for the best paper having certain periods to run, rules is not as follows • Per Cent.

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 their own country, The following are the particulars of exports : concerned, the EXPORTS OF WOOL FROM THE UNITED KINGDOM To Hanse Towns.. 26,326 .2,141,499 France United States Other countries... 871,033 50,480 115,579 IN TWO MONTHS. 1866. 1865. lbs. lbs. 60,373 161,396 11,636 19,833 792,941 82,898 309,806 157,388 61,178 34,722 187,655 239,222 792,645 45,582 34,531 606,990 12,834 8,569 .971,995 1,276,740 86,692 115,814 *$55,953 • • * • 41,188 13,662 52,405 . 27,095 .*,. $122,628 „ ‘ Total since January 1,1866 Same time in 1865 $5,153,102 11,780.995 16.196,788 11.065,050 2,333.136 5,208,400 11,016,831 1864.....' 1S63 1862. 1861 1860 1859 Treasure this * - from Same time in 1858 $9,790,146 1857 , : 1856 1855.... 1854 1853 1852 California.—The - steamship Arizona port on the 20th inst., from Aspinwall, bringing The following is her treasure list: 5,575,146 $5,697,774 6,753,991 5.058.346 6,182,153 5,414,649 3,431.025 7,177,128 arrived a the California mails and treasure.

Among the banks and private bankers there is a plethora of funds seeking employment, and ease which the demand from brokers and merchants is insufficient to ab¬ sorb. A portion of the surplus is beiqg used in the purchase of compound interest notes and Seven-thirties as affording a good source of interest, while the compound notes are available as a legal tender reserve. The notice of the Treasury Department that after May 1st the interest on Clearing House certificates will be reduced to 4 per cent is likely to be followed by the withdrawal of a portion of those deposits, the probability being that the withdrawn funds will be invested chiefly in compound notes. The amount of those deposits at New York is about $25,000,000; which, after with-u as “ Call loans Loans on bonds & raort..

Thi3 securities have in turn become source of demand has beeu one cause of the firmness of Five-twen¬ during the week ; and more encouraging reports of the proba¬ bility of a pacific settlement of the Germau question, with an ad¬ vance in Five-twenties to 72±a72$ at London, has also tended to strengthen the market.

Friday The vance without steady demand for consumption, w ith the firmness of gold, ad¬ exchange and easy money, have united in promoting a better There is much 1 fear of the panic that has But the truth is that the ease in the money market has softened a fall in prices during the past three or four months that, under less favorable circumstances, woul d have produced a panic. Cotton has been rather slow throughout the w eek, but no important concession was made in prices until to-day, when, under the Persia’13 advices there was a decline of -$c. per lb. Receipts are reported at liberal figures ; but there is decidedly less confid ence in the yield for so ess long predicted. the coming season. Breadstuff* have been unsettled. Flour and^wheat, under speculative influences, largely advanced, but the market was dull, and prices tend¬ ing downward. 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 amount to nine thousand have beeu in better demand and firm. The Provision market has been feverish and unsettled. Mess important movement or decided advance. 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 Tallow has been Night, April 20. in tone in business circles. been pork has been is not easy to prognosticate.

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 ' COMPARATIVE 'Atlantic & Great Western.-, 1864. 186).
