the specie movement of the East,
as In many other
channels of trade the most violent
changes. The cutting off of
all supply of cotton from our
seceded States, compelled England
to drain Clilna and the East
Indies of their stocks, and to
encourage increased cultivation of this
Important staple In aU her
Eastern colonies. The consequent Increased
importation of cotton
from those countries, at very high figures,
necessarily led to an
mcreased export of specie to pay for It, the
compaVatlve ignorance
and poverty of the producers not admitting
of a corresponding
Increase in the consumption of British
products. The effect waa
almost instantaneous. From less than
50 millions In 1860 the
bulUon export; to the East In 1862 had risen
to neariy 100 milUons,
and in 1864 exceeded 130 millions, actually
requiring nearly 80
per cent more than the whole production of
the year, and reducing the stock at the disposal of the commercial
community by at
least fifty millions in the two years of
1863 and 1864, a circumstance which probably had a greater influence
in bringing about
the crisis of 1866 than is generally believed. In
1864 the highest
figures were reached, and they have since
steadily though irregularly declined for the last two years they
have fallen below the
average of the period prior to 1861.

decline, judging from the iuquirios nuide by buyers, a considerable bnslnesn
might be done. After to-day bualneso will be nearly over until next Tuesday,
and it seems probable that a number of warehouses will be closed entirely on
Batorday. Tlio first quarter of the year has passed off satisfactorily to producers, who have had a fair profltabto trade. The production has been disposed of without difflcully, and Koncnilly at remunerative prices. Mills which
nave been closed and on sale for years have found purchasers, and been
re-opencd. Any further increase of the production must now be gradual, so
that an extra demand for cotton is not likely to come suddenly. It has y«t to
be proved how di^-Iant foreign markets wiU be able to stand the enormous
•hipmcnts which have been sent to them. In the meantime, so long as money
cheap and abundant, a steady demand, both for the Contlncntof Bnrope
ana the great Eastern markets may reasonably be expected.

April 14.— There baa been a comparatively

for the finer or cryataiized sorts. These figures, however, are not cosily granted
to-iAj.

Orinding In the principal districts is drawing to an end, and there ia hardly
any doubt that the whole crop of the Island will show a deficit of at least 30
per cent, compared with tliat of last year.
The aalea which have been reported during thia week amount to about 16,000

Melado— Is dull, at from 6}i&i rs arrobe, on the coast.
Centrifugals are in fair demand for the IJnited States, but as the majority of
holders are rather adverse to sell at present or to cede in their pretensions, the
amount of business is small.
Muscovadoes— The demand Is rather quiet both here and on the coast, owing
to the lower offers made, which are not accepted, these being generally about

the gold sold was paid for to-day in national bank notes. The
last statement of the associated Banks of this city was quite favorable, exhibiting in its results a material increase in legal tender
reserves, and showing the eifect produced by the return to business channels ot the funds previously " locked up," and of the
moderate currency movement from the interior towards thi
centre. The general opinion at the present moment is ou the side

Tlie Money Market.— There has been an abundant supply of
money at 5@6 per cent on governments and 6@7 on miscellaneous
collateral.
The natural tendency the past week should have been
towards easier rates, but this was greatly checked by the remarkable activity in stocks, which has created, as usual, a large demand
lor new loans on call, and also given rise to much shifting of loans
previously outstanding.
An event of much importance waa the sale of $4,000,000 of gold

particularly object to.
Subscriptions to the new loan have not recently been very
large, and the total up to the close of this week will not probably
exceed $63,000,000. All parties are waiting for the first of next
month, when it is understood that the Secretary of the Treasury
Wjill take a review of what has been done up to that time, and
change in some material respects his plans for negotiating
the new bonds. In the mean time, it does not appear likely that
subscriptions will be very large, and the total up to May 1 will
not, therefore, greatly exceed the amqunt already made. At the
Government purchase of $3,000,000 Five-Twenties on Wednesday,
bids amounted to $6,391,600. At the purchase on Wednesday
next it is anticipated by some that $5,000,000 of bonds will be
tajven by the Government, but this is without any official intimation to that effect.

States Bonds— Government Bonds have been strong
in prices but without much activity in business. Currency 6s
close about the same as last Friday, Five-Twenties of 1867 i@i
higher, and Ten-Forties \ per cent higher.
In the early part of the week bonds were apparently strengthened by the rise and further upward tendency of gold, but when
the treasury sold $4,000,000 on Thursday this supporting influence
was lost, and there was a fractional decline. It seems probable,
however, that the eSect of the gold sale referred to, was quite as
much felt in unsettling business as in the immediate influence of
depressing the gold premium, as the action of Secretary Boutwell
in thus departing suddenly from his published programme for
the month, without giving previous notice, brought an element of
uncertainty upon the maiket which produced a temporary
depression. Nothing is now assuredly known as to what amount
of bonds may be purchased, or gold sold, next week, and it is
this uncertainty, rather than the purchase or sale of a large or small
amount of bonds or gold, which dealers in Government bonds

For Commercial Paper the demand has continued good with
only a moderate amount of first-class paper offering. Rates have
scarcely changed, and with the prospect of easy money for some
time in the future there is reason to anticipate a continued demand

and $10,000 ; and coupon bonds of each denomination
except the last two. The Interest will be payable in the United States at the
office of the Treasurer, any Assistant Treasurer, or deslfi:nated depositary of

November, in each year.
The bonds of the several classes aforesaid, and the interest thereon, are
exempt from the payment of all taxes or dues of the United States, as well as
from taxation In any form by or under State, municipal, or local authority.
After maturity, the bonds last issued will be first redeemed, by classes and

State and Railroad Bonds.— The general list of Southern
State bonds has been only moderately active, with less fluctuaNew South Carolinas, Tennessees and old North
tion than usual.
The
Carolinas show some advance on our last quotations.
Governor of South Carolina has written a letter, in which he
states that the condition of affairs in that State is not nearly as
bad as has generally been represented, that the absolute debt of
the State does not exceed $8,000,000, and that the contingent
liability by railroad endorsements is secured by liens on property
sufficient to protect the State.
Pacific railroad bonds have shown a conspicuous advance on all
classes. Central Pacifies have sold up to 101i<@103, the closing
price to-night, this important rise having been stimulated by the
a4miB8ion ot the bonds to the regular call at the Berlin Exchange.
Union Pacific bonds have advanced on the anticipation that they
may be placed on the call of the London Stock Exchange, and
also from the general improvement ia the prospects ol the road

developed a further remarkable activity in the stock market, with
great buoyancy in prices, and transactioDB of enormous extent.
I'liero has been no similnr movement in stocks, with such wide
fluctuations in prices, and so jjeneral a support from the outside
public, since the panic of September, 186!>. Although prices are
now much hi|y;her than they iiave been lor a longtime previously,
the confidence and enthusiasm of buyers seems to increase with
the advance in price*, and a stock which was not considered a
good )>urcliaBe at 90 or even at 80 is now taken eagerly at 100. and
this too, without any material change in the actual condition or
income of the railroad or other property which the stock represents. New York Central and Hudson River has sold up to lOOi,
scrip to 90}, (both ox dividend of 4 per cent), Lake Shore to 11
Reading to 110} Ohio and Mississippi to 58J Wabash to 6.^i
Northwest to 91} do. preferred to 100^ Western ITnion Telegraph to 58^, and other stocks to similar high figures, as indicated
in the quotations below.
Cleveland and Pittsburg has sold above
130 on the rumor, which seems to be preity well authenticated,
that a scrip dividend will soon be made, though the exact amount
of such dividend is not yet known, SO per cent being the common
report it has also been stated, but without equal certainty, that
the road will pass under the control of the Pennsylvania Central.
Lake Shore has been the subject of a similar report, viz.:
that it would be leased to the New York Central and Hudson River and a scrip dividend declared, after which a
regular quarterly dividend of 3 per cent would be guaranteed on the enlarged capital, the report, however, Tacks
any otHcial confirmation. Various other reports have been circulated in regard to leading stocks, and have unquestionably
had a certain effect upon prices, in the present excited and sensitive condition of the market, but they lack any such authoritative
confirmation as to warrant us in giving them a place in our report.
The Erie Railway Company gave notice to the Stock Kxchange on
Wednesday that they had increased the common stock f 3,000,000
by the issue of convertible bonds this was in violation of the rule
requiring thirty days' notice of any increase in stock to be given
to the Exchange, but, the governing Committee, instead of striking
the stock from tlie call, resolved to suspend their rule^>ro tempore,
and in the meantime, as the Farmers' Loan and Trust Company
have agreed to admit no stock to registry till the end of thirty
day^, the new stock is not a good delivery.
As to the future course of the stock market, it is impossible to
striking feature in the
predict with any degree of certainty.
recent upward movement has been the readiness with which large
amounts of stock thrown upon themarket have been taken, without
causing anything like a break in prices, or more than a slight and
temporary depression. This undoubtedly shows great confidence
in purcliasers, but t'>e movement cannot always go on in a
crescendo, and, if the experience of the past is of any value, it
would seem fair to conclucje that after stocks have been well
distributed by the cliques, among outside buyers at the present
relatively high prices, the sjieculative support will be taken away
firom the market, and a decline of greater or less extent will be

the parties who were operating for a rise and all the offers were,
of course, made upon the suppogltion that f3,000,000 only wtjnld
be sold. The action of Mr. Boutwell in thus purchaoing a mnch
larger amount than his published programme called for, is severely
criticized, on the ground that It immediately throws a cloud of
uncertainty over allhis future purchases of bonds and sales of
gold ; and it Is contended that public notice of the intention to
sell a larger amount, should have previously l)een given, if only on
the morning of the day of sale. To day the price ranged between
llOJ and lllf, closing steady at IIH on the prospect of the shipment of 11,170,000 to-morrow, making the total exports about

Baltimore and Ohio,— At tbe sale of tbe Hempfield railroad
in Philadelphia, on the 30th ult., the road was purchased by John
King, Vice-President of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Com
pany, the price being $131,000. The charter gives the company
the right to construct a railway from Wheeling, West Va., to
Greensburg, Pa. The road was completed from Wheeling to
Washington, Pa., and has been in operation for several years, and
considerable grading has been done on the eastern end of it. The
probabilities now are that it will be completed at an early day to
a point where it intersects the Connellsville, near West Newton.

.Sarlem River and Portchester. The bill to extend tbe
time for completing the Harlem River and Portchester Railroad for
two years was passed by tbe Legislature on Tuesday evening. The
$1,000,000, of which the greater
portion has already been subscribed. Under the original charter
granted in 1866, the road was to have been completed within five
years from tbe passage of the act. Tbe greater part of the strip
of land (four rods wide) required for the road has been given to

capital stock of the

the Evansville, Carmi and Paducah County Railroad, under the
name and style of tbe St. Louis and Southeastern Railroad Company, with a capital atock of $10,500,000, were filed in the office of
the Illinois Secretary of State on the 11th inst. This consolidation
makes a continuous line of road from East St. Louis to Shawneetown, running through a splendid country.

The Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad

is progressing rapidly!
the western end 90 miles are graded, and 100 miles will be
ready for the iron witbin 90 days. There are 300,000 tiei on hand,
which are going down. Some 8,000 tons of iron are on the way,
and track laying on the western end will be pushed with vigor,
during the spring and summer months. The Company advertises
for proposals for the construction of shops on a grand scale at tbe
new city of Huntington, in Western Virginia. The city is likely to
grow with great rapidity in consequence of the location of engine
shops.

On

Jfackson, I^anslng and Saginaw.— Work on tbe northern
extension of the Jackson, Lansing and Saginaw line is being
pushed rapidly forward, and by tbe close of tbe present season the
road wUl be finished well toward the Straits. Tbe track is now
laid to a point within ten miles of Pine River, and 100 more men
are soon to be put on. According to the terms of the charter, tbe
road must be finished by the close of 1873.

The Pittsburg and Connellsville Railroad was finally completed
April 10, giving Pittsburg a direct connection with Baltimore.
This company has for years been struggling under heavy disadvantages pecuniary and legal. Five years ago, rival interests
were brought to bear against the company, which seemed almost
friendless, and an act passed tbe Pennsylvania Legislature forfeiting its charter for abuse and misuse of its corporate franchise. The
passage of this act was a crisis in the history of the road, tbe forfeiture of its charter being considered oppressive, and stirred up
the friends of the road to unceasing energy. After a long struggle, tbe nullifying act was repealed, and the company restored to
its franchise, and the city of Baltimore and tbe Baltimore and
Ohio road then took an active interest in its behalf, subscribing
largely to its stock, and through the active co-operation of President Garrett, of tbe Baltimore and Ohio road, its early completion
was assured. Since that time President W. O. Hugbart has
pushed the road with extraordinary vigor, and to-day, together
with B. H. Latrobe, Chief Engineer, and the former President,
performed the duty of spiking the last rail at a point near Mineral
Point. Immediately upon its completion, the first train proceeded
to Cumberland, passing over a temporary road which had been
constructed over Brook tunnel, which is not yet completed. The
total length of the road from Pittsburg to Baltimore is three hundred and twenty-five miles the highest grade fifty feet to a mile.
Express trains, when running regularly, are expected to make the
distance from Pittsburg to Washington in ten hours, via the
Point of Rocks route. When completed, the road will have cost
nine millions of dollars. Through passenger trains will commence running next Monday. Cincinnati Mailroad Recm'd.

The last spike of the Pittsburg and Connellsville Railroad,
forming a continuous route between Pittsburgh and Baltimore,
nia Cumberland, was driven on April 11, at a point near tbe Forge
Bridge, three miles west of Mineral Point, tbe ceremony having
been performed by the President, W. 0. Hugbart and the Engineer
and former President, B. H. Latrobe. Much praise is due to John
W. Garrett, President of tbe Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, for his
unwavering zeal and effort in behalf of tbe road.

A trial trip was made over the Alabama and Chattanooga
Railroad on April 6, which was eminently satisfactory, tbe rate of

influen c es, prices have been maintained with an active demand
lor speculation to-day, and quite a firm undertone apimrent at the
close.
The source of this ap parent strength is thus speculative,
and may be traced to the fact that holders think that a corner in
cotton is probable towards th e close of the month when the shorts
meet their maturing con tracts, and refuse therefore to make any
concession in price. For future delivery the business has been
fair, and prices have been w ell maintained.

Weather Reports by Telegraph. The general result of
our reports to night would indicate that, in the main, good progress is being made in the work pertaining to the next crop and
yet the weather has been far from satisfactory in some quarters,
especially during the early part of the week. From Macon our
telegram states that it has rained three days, and on Saturday last
the'raiiLwas very heavy. To-day it had cleared up, and gave
promiseof pleasant weather. Our correspondent at that point also
states that less cotton and more com has been planted in that
neighborhood, and the same statement is contained in our CharlesAt Selma there
ton, Augusta, Columbus and Memphis telegrams.
has also been an unusually severe storm, and the weather during
the week is described as being warm, sultry and wet, and still the
telegram reports that crop work is progressing satisafctorily. At
Columbus and Charleston it has rained two days, at Montgomery,

TEA.
The Tolume of business has Increased somewhat and the market generally
has shown more life, and in some cases an Improved tone. Jajians are atUl so
irregular as to render quotations quite difficult and in all cases nominal, but
Oolongs are evidently settling Into a more steady position, and Qrecns have
really become Arm on all good to prime grades, with the ordinary qualities
also commencing to partake of the improvement, and holders though accepting
full bids showing no anxiety to hurry business, as foreign advices of late data
are quite stimulating. Through reliable private sources we learn from
Shanghae that the Tea season has closed, with a total export to the United
States and Canada of only 18,750,000 lbs. The export to Englind la also
reported short as compared with previons seasons. The season In China is
thus closed on a short crop two mimths earlier than nsiud, and its a resttlt wo
may look for a gradual falling ofT in our later receipts. Teas came to band
much earlier than usual this year owing to the Introduction of ateam transportation, and this giving the impression that the supply would be excessive
undoubtedly caused the recent break In values. There is no doubt, however,
that consumers are operating in a more cautious manner than iu former years,
and taking little stock in excess of known wants. Sales of 12,400 Qreenai
80,000 Oolongs (part to arrive) and 1,800 Japans.
The imports this week consist of the arrival of 617.587 lbs. of Green tea and
3,807 lbs. of Japan, per "' Levi Stevens" from iSliangliae I,()70.tM5 lbs. of Black,
per " Orpheus^' from Foochow 528.000 lbs. Black and 65.740 lbs. (ireons, per
" Kinirft'^her " from Hong Kong 66,8118 lbs. of Blaoks. per •* .lanios Shepherd "
from WliRinpoa and 696,523 lbs. Black, per " Annie (Jray " from Shanghae.

COFFEE.
The anticipations of an increased call from the Interior have not been realized, and the hopeful tone noticeable at the close ol our hist report is In part
dissipated. Holders as a rule remain Arm at former rates, and arc not offering
any very large amount of goods; but they aro not encouraged by a demand
from jobbers, and arc simply obliged to muster op all the patience possible
and await an opening of the outlet A few buyers have appeared, but thcj
were by no means anxions; and when finally induced to operate took invoices

enough to satisfy early wants. Among the jobbers a small amonnl
of stock has been distributed on mall orders from regular customers, but in
the majority of eases there is a complaint of a dull business. The stock of
Brazils has not increased to any extent, and the assortment contlnnes poor;
but there is evidently enough for the wants of the market, as the call generally Is slack, and Kdlers more disposed to operate than buyers. The recent
advices from Rio Janeiro show no margin for ImjiorterB at current rates, and
the natural inclination is to resist a further decline; yet it is prulty certain
just largo

fair bid a number of psrcola could be found available. Java
supply, and the stock being well under rontnd owners show consid erable llrinness, though finding It extremely difficult to realiau outside Ognres
except on prime brown lots. West India descriptions are moving very iluwly,

We find no Improvement In

the position of the market on foreign styles, the
general demand proving moderate and business showing a sluggish tone. Refiners appear to have enough stock on hand for all current wants, either from
previous purchases or direct importation. The trade' are distributing too

slowly to make them at all anxious about purchasing [additional supplies, and
with absolutely no call whatever from distillers the common qualities have
simply to go into store and await an outlet. The stock in first hands, however, does not increase with much rapidity, and to some extent sympathizing
with the sugar market values are very fairly sustained on all the upper

For domestic there has been a moderate jobbing inquiry, and as
the goods wanted were mostly of extra fine quality full prices were insisted
upon and obtained. The stock, however, is mostly poor, and it is useless to
offer It at present except with an intention of accepting very low bids, as buyers have no nse for the goods. Sugar House Molasses Is jobbing slowly at
17c. in lihds., and 21c. in bbls. Syrups are selling moderately at about former
rates. The business for the week embraces 442 hhds. Porto Rico, 80 hhds.

There is not much of call for invoices and few lots offering in the market,
showing a nominal sort of position in a general way. Yet on the whole there
is a fair amount of strength extant and it would probably be difficult to induce
any Important concessions as the supply available is not likely to increase for
some time and foreign advices to latest dates were encouraging. In jobbing
lots there has been a good uniform movement for the week embracing pretty
much all styles of stock, and dealers are enabled to realize full former rates
with sufficient ease to call the market firm.

Domestic Cotton Goods. The market for cotton fabrics has
experienced few changes since our last review, and, as regards
prices, remains steady. Brown and bleached cottons are in good
request in the finer grades, and the stock of the most favorably

some instances a moderate accumulation is reported. Prices are

There is a good demand for

an active business. The production of these goods has been imnsuaUy small this season, and a majority of the commission houses
are entirely sold out. There is a moderate inquiry for heavy

the scarcity of stock, and it is probable that transactions wiU

The prospect for higher prices on domestic woolens is stimulating
the trade in foreign goods, and an active season is anticipated.
