The Court has refused to open again the judgment in the case of Hepburn against Griswold and to hear Attorney-General Hoar’s plea for the Greenbacks; and the decision in that case, therefore, remains undisturbed. It is the authoritative interpretation of the constitution by the highest tribunal, and ought to be respected and obeyed by every citizen, as it is sure to be enforced by all the courts of the United States as the supreme law of the land. Under that decision every debt contracted before February, 1802, and not yet satisfied, stands precisely The cases was same class of rights. Now there is in which the courts of the United a class of cases States have concurrent jurisdiction with the State courts, many of those, which arise between citizens of different States. for instance, Such cases be brought at the option of the plaintiff, either in a or in a court of the United States ; and, there¬ fore, in such cases, if the State court adopts a different rule of law from the courts of the United States, the intolerable anomaly will arise of two courts of justice in the same Terri¬ tory administering opposite laws upon the same subject mat¬ ter.

The disposition on the part of many to be opened again, much less with their authority for men, whose private integrity is above suspicion, to sustain the announcing in advance the result to which the minds of the practical repudiation of contracts and confiscation of the Judges will come. But, in fact, it is in a high degree im¬ property of creditors, by an act of Congress, is one of the probable that it will ever be reopened. The decision is one saddest features of the times.

And mean¬ while, the established rule of law will have been applied in so many instances that the weight of precedent will be almost irresistible, and the Court will be less disposed than ever to unsettle the law, trample on its own record, and open the way to repudiation by reversing it. * that time every It is true that the appelate jurisdiction of the Supreme Court does not extend to cases in the State courts arising under the Legal Tender act, if these maintain theThe 25th section of the law of 1789, courts validity of the act. establishing the United States courts, gives the Supreme Court jurisdiction in cases “ where is drawn in question the validity of a treaty or statute of, or an authority exercised may State court The Funding Bill sleeps sleep suspiciously resembling the Tariff Bill has lost a great part of its strength in Congress, by the change made this week in the duty on a death ; iron; and the Internal Revenue Bill has not even been report¬ ed. Congress grows weary of talk, and thinks of adjournment. Appropriations have still to be settled, and three-fourths of the real work of the session, after four months of effort, re¬ begins to seem doubtful whether a single financial measure of importance can be passed this year. On the other hand the country is taxed far too heavily ; the treasury is overflowing, while the people groan, and states¬ men hint at the fable of the goose and the golden eggs. There must be some relief; and cynical observers are not" wanting who declare that every mature plan for reform in the finances is sure to fail, but that, at the very end of the session, some crude and rash resolution, abolishing, per¬ haps, the income tax and the duty on tea, or, extending at random the free list in the tariff, will be passed, in order to seem to have granted, something of a relief, where the de¬ main undone.

In metals a moderate business; has been transacted, and prices are generally firm. In the Stock Exchange tl;o=e securities which are acknowledged to i be eound have been largely dealt in at higher quotations. Hence; consols, Indian Government securities, Indian railway securities, Colo- i nial Government securities and British railway shares have realized enhanced quotations; but telegraph and mining shares have continued very dull. In the mining market another failure has taken place during the week. There has also been a steady demand for Fivetwenty and Ten forty bonds, and the quotations have improved; but American railway shares are mostly dull.

The demand continues to be chiefly for China and India, and for these markets a very large business has been done latterly, so large, indeed, as to give rise to some apprehensions lest they should be over done and become glutted with goods. Spinners have bought fully up to their consumption this week, but continue to act with caution. The imports have been good but not excessive, and a large amount of cotton must still he at hand. Good staple qualities remain comparatively scarce, but there is now on the whole a good available stock in Liverpool, and spinners are not alarmed about any scarcity for some time forward. This market is. therefore,' liable to fewer fluctuations than has been the case for the last few previous years, and this fact probably encourages shippers to go on sending out goods, and take, their chance of foreign markets.

The official figures at the office of the Company show as follows : Earnings Jan ’6). .$3 32,622 Earnings Feb., ’69.. -127,817 175,950 Earnings Mch., ’69. . , .. .. 81 55 05 Jan., 1 70., .$152,392 75 Inc. .119,769 94 hie. 30,967 11 Inc 927 33 .

Panama Road.-The New York Times says: “The changes of trade between the Atlantic and Pacific coasts and the Orient have not seriously affected the stock and prospects of Pacific Mail, but they touch very nearly, if not vitally, the Panama Company, whose shares have fallen from 280 per cent below 140 per cent, and whose dividends are reduced from 24 per cent per annum in gold to 16 per cent in currency. In our long experience in this column, which dates from the early progress of the Panama Railroad, we have recorded the most astonishing fluctuations in the stock. In 1862 it was predicted that the completion of the wrought by the Pacific Railroad ia the difficulty with Eng¬ Stocks, comprises all Companies of which the stock is sold in any of the principal cities (except merely local corporations), or upon which dividends are paid. Quotations are always given of the per cent value, whatever the par of the stock may be. The figures just after the name of the company indicate the No. of the CHRON¬ ICLE in wrhich a report ol the Company was last published. A star (*) indicates ou make the stock worth more than 160 per cent. Two years thereafter one or more of its leading promoters were compelled to sell at 60 or 66 per cent. The stock subsequently advanced to more than 160 percent. In 1861, on the Trent TABLES. Other 529 course land, it fell to 90@95 per cent. Since then it reached 330 per cent. And now, since the completion of the Pacific It dir,.a t, it has steadily fallen from 226 to 140 per cent. In the meantime a renewal charter from the New Grana liau Government, which by of the tlie original concession was to terminate in twenty years after tbe completion of the work, has been obtained for r*inui) -nine >ears perpetuating a clause in tbe contract that if the Darien Ship Canal should be undertaken and successfully prosecuted, the Panama Company wo uld be infilled fo ample compensation for their exclusive privileg s of tran-it across the Isthmus. The end of this remarkably history is yet to be written. —1The following notices of our American railway negotiations appear in the London Economist: “ Messrs. Turner Brothers, of Threadneedle street and New York, in conjunction with Messrs. Hug¬ gins & B swell, of Threadneedle street, have issued a piospectus inviting subscriptions to the first mortgage bonds fjr $5,000, 00 of the Indianapolis, Bloomington and Western Railway of Imi ana and Illi¬ nois. The bonds are offered at tbe price of £163 per $1,000. It is stated that the road is completed with the exception "f about 35 rr iles, which is being proceeded with under contract, to be finished ou the 1st of June, and th it the present earnings of the line are in e .cees of the whole amount of interest on the mortgage bonds, which is calcu¬ late 1 to earn the fitst year 1H per cent on tl.e capital invested. Messrs. Joshua Hutchinson Jr Son, of I hrogmorlcn s'reet, are author¬ ized by the President and Directors of the East Tennessee, v irginii and Georgia Railroad, and in virtue rf an ac‘ of tin* Legislature of Tennessee, United States of America, to negotiate the sale of $3,900,000 in bon s to bearer of the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia Rail¬ road Company; secured by fir:l mortgage on the complt ted line, 292 miles in length, and on the entire property and franchises of the Com¬ The number of bonds is 3,900, or $1,0(0, or £'00 each, issued pany. at £82 10s. per £100, and bearing interest ut the into of t-ix per cent per annum, payable in New York and London on the 1st of July and the 1st of January in each year. Redeemable at par in 1900, with option to the Company to reepcem at the expiration of ten years. Principal and interest payable in gold." And the following in the London Times: “ Messrs. J. H. Schro ler & Co have invited subscrip¬ tions for £460,000 eight per cent gold bonds cf the State of Alabama at 94£ (or 93f, reckoning allowances), payable in instalments extend¬ in'? to the 15th of June. The list is to close on Saturday fo- London and on Monday for the country. The existing ditect debt of Alabama is only about £875,000, and as she meets her obligations with punctu¬ ality, and contrived to surmount honorably all the financial difficulties occasioned by the war, her .-ecurities are regar led on this side without disfavor. The present issue represents the subscription i f the State to the Alabama and Chattanooga Railway, which n to form a link in the long line of communication between New York and New Orleans.” —The subscription lists opened in London by J. S. Morgan & Co., for the first mortgage bonds ot the Illinois and St. Louis Bridge Com¬ pany, have been closed, the amount asked for having been successfully negotiated. The bonds are for $4,000,000, beaiing interest at seven per cent in gold, and are a first lien upon the bridge connecting St. Louis with the various railroad lineB concentrating on the Mississippi River opposite the city.

There is one fact which we have not taken into consideration iff the above calculation, and that is the difference in stocks held by the mills at the two periods (Sept. 1 and April 14), because of the uncertainty which exists on that point. English spinners are sup¬ posed to have diminished their stocks about-75,000 balers, while American spinners claim that they have increased tlieir’s about 150,000 hales. On the continent, manufacturers probably hold about the same they held Sept. 1. Of course, if there is in the aggregate any increase in stocks held by spinners, to that amount the year’s consumption in the above calculation must be decreased, and the surplus at the end of the season increased. Still it should he remembered that the average consumption for the past 74 months is not by any means, and for obvious reasons, an absolute test of what it is to be during the remaining 4j months. 536 THE CHRONICLE. India Crop.—It appears to be generally admitted now that the cotton before the monsoon are to be less than Iasi year. The entire crop is late, and the earlier districts have had their crop very materially inj ured. How far this Shipping News.—The exports of cotton from the United States the past week, as per latest mail returns, have reached 68,502 bales. So far as the Southern ports are shipments of India concerned, these exports deficiency in reported by telegraph, and published in the are the same last Fri¬ Chronicle day, except Galveston, and the figures for that port are the the European supply from that quarter will shipments through the canal seems to be more „ be made good by of a question. The better opinion would appear to be that the movement in May and June will be in excess of last year, but not sufficient to make good the present deficiency. The monsoon sets in about the 10th of June, and lasts until about the middle of July. Arrivals after the monsoon at the outports may still reach Europe through the canal before October 1st, so that by the latter date it is not impossible that this deficiency may be made good. These considerations are having now a est. Up With regard to New York, we include the manifest only up to Tuesday night, to make the figures correspond with the offi¬ cial week.

Friday, P. M., The April 22, 1S70. improvement in the general Dry Goods trade noticed report has continued during this week, and more evidently doing in the jobbing houses. There is a good number of merchants in the city from the North, West and Southwest, and they are beginning now to take those go.ods which are actually needed to supply the demand at their stores in the country. Prices have not fluctuated materially, and this has been favorable to business, as a steady market is always encouraging to a healthy trade. The tone of the market, both in foreign and domestic goods, is firm, and the aspects before noted by us are not much altered, so that there is more confidence among buyers, induced by the opinion which they entertain that there is a good prospect of firm prices for some time to come. The cotton market continues to maintain its firmness, but -as to the future of cotton opinions are greatly divided, and there seems to be little certainty about the course of prices, ■Gold has been pretty steady. in our last business is 540 THE The exports of dry goods for the past week, and since Jan.

The competition among manufacturers, for the excellence of the designs and execution of their respective goods, has been instrumental in placing upon the market some of the finest styles of Prints over produced here. These goods being freely placed by both jobbers and agents, and prices for them are generally fully sustained. The poorer grades are not in good request and, although well cleared out of the market, are still, in most cases, offered at con¬ cessions.

Agents have light supplies only of spring goods, their receipts now being entirely of heavy goods for the Autumn trade. The season is not sufficiently a ivanced to create a heavy tailoring demand, though jobbers report a better trade in pro¬ gress. There may be a fair trade, but the prospect seems at present to favor a dull, inactive season throughout. Prices for all woolen fabrics remain without important change, and in most cases firm. Carpets are moving comparatively well, and the aggregate amount of sales is apparently quiet satisfactory. Prices are a trifle off for eome makes, and the lower grades are not in inquiry, except at lower figures.

Foreign Goods have moved fairly throughout the week, there having been a decided improvement in all imported fabrics. This is more especially the case with Dress Goods, for which there is a liberal inquiry, and this, together with the limited stocks of many styles in the market, has strengthened prices throughout, while some dress fabrics have been advanced by importers fully 16 per cent. This naturally serves to stimulate traffic, and outmf-town dealers are stocking themselves more liberally. Linens are improving in first hands toward the close of the week, and the sales for the seven days are reported as fully up to ex¬ pectations.
