Hence it is less possible now to forecast the

the most divergent opinions prevail as to the probable ex¬

During the war there was an attempt made to negotiate a
large five per cent loan at par. The success of the attempt
did not equal the wishes of its promoters, and even now the
Ten-forty five per cents are less popular than they deserve to
be. Now before our new consols could be negotiated at par,
the Ten-forties must rise to about the same price. And there
are indications that this point will be reached in a very short
time.
For their price has been steadily advancing for some
weeks past; in consequence, partly of the increased demand
from the National Banks, which hold a very large proportion
of the 190 millions of these bonds. No one who has watched

Among other important points on wdiich it throws light, is
the unauthorized over-issue of notes, which has recently been
the subject of inquiry. The law provides that the total cur¬
rency of the national banks shall never exceed 300 millions,
and that this sum shall be equitably distributed among the
States ; one-half being apportioned according to the represen¬
tative population, and the other half according to the discre¬
tion of the Secretary of the Treasury, having due regard to
the monetary requirements of the several States. To pre¬
vent any misapprehension, we copy the precise w'ords of
the National Currency act, as amended by the law of March
3, 1865. This measure provides “that one hundred and
fifty millions of dollars of the entire amount of circulating
notes authorized to be issued shall be apportioned to asso¬
ciations in the States, in the District of Columbia, and in
population, and
the remainder shall be apportioned by the Secretary of the
Treasury among associations formed in the States, in the

Our immense revenues
from internal taxation, our resuscitat¬
ing industry North and South, our inconceivably vast resources
in mineral, manufacturing, and agricultural wealth, the rapid
absorption of our disbanded armies in the ranks of our pro¬
ductive laborers ; these, and a thousand other things, have,
during the past year, given such an impulse to the national
credit, and to the production of national wealth that an offer
of five per cent interest now will command a very much
higher bid in the money market. [Moreover, the national
credit is still improving.
A year hence it will have made
an equal advance, or probably a greater advance, than in the
past. Now our argument is that we shall in a few months
find it more easy to negotiate five per cent bonds at par, than
we found it during the last fiscal year to negotiate six per
cents at the same price.

Banking facilities are necessary to develop the industrial interests of
the South, and to stimulate the protection of those staples which enter

largely into the financial interests of the country. At the same time
it would be wise
policy to afford the people of that section an oppor¬
tunity to become pecuhiarly interested in the successful maintenance of
the Government of the United States; and, inasmuch as Congress has
assumed entire con troll of the currency of the country, and, to a very
considerable extent, of its banking interests, prohibiting the interfer¬
ence of State Governments, it would seem to be the plain duty of Con¬
gress to make adequate provision to meet the business wants of all sec

The Money Market.—The

of monetary
affairs, during
increasing ease. The partial con¬
traction of credits, induced
early in the spring by the actual and
anticipated fall of prices, is showing its effects in a great abundance

of money
at the commercial and financial centre of the country
bought a considerable amount of merchandise,
chiefly for cash. So that for some weeks past there has been a
steady influx of funds from nearly all parts of the country.
The
effect of thi3 tendency is apparent from the
following statement of
deposits of the associated banks at intervals since the beginning of

This

of the market.
Another
of the
prevailing
plethora of funds arises from the fact that the orders for Western
produce, on the opening of navigation, are light, compared with
what they are usually. The abundance of
money which is to a large
extent
cause
effect of the contraction of
general business, is at the
speculation in securities. Parties un¬
able to lend their balances at a satisfactory
rate of interest have
invested freely in bonds and stocks, governments
having had a
general preference, owing to their stability of value. But while
this stimulates the price of securities it has little effect in
modify¬
ing the ease in money ; as the funds simply pass into other hands
to appear again on the market seeking borrowers.
The rate on call loans opened at five
per cent; but for the latter
half of the week transactions have been about
equally divided be¬
tween four and five per cent.
Bound sums have been offered to
private bankers by the banks at three per cent.
Discounts cannot be reported active, there
being comparatively
little paper of the class readily negotiable, on the market. Rates
favor the seller very decidedly. Prime names, 30 to 60
days, pass
at 5@6 per cent, but paper of that class is
extremely scarce; prime
three and four months notes are current at 6@7
per cent; paper
ranked as “ good ” is quoted 7@8£ per cent; lower
grades profit
little by the ease of the market, and may be quoted 10@18

Miscellaneous Securities.-—The extreme ease
natural result upon the stock market, in
a general activity of speculation and a rise in
quotations, ranging
from 1 to 8 per cent.
The very decided firmness of the market has
induced operators to cover their sellers optionsjon perhaps all stocks,
except New York Central and Fort Wayne ; so that the whole
current is now in favor of an upward speculation.
The unfavor¬
able financial news brought by the Nova Scotian and Africa had the
effect of checking the upward tendency for a few hours ; but sub¬
sequently prices recovered, and the market closed buoyant. The
probability of war in Germany has the effect of strengthening stocks,
rather than otherwise ; it being argued that the event would be at¬
tended with an enlarged demand for our surplus produce, and a con¬
sequent increase of traffic on the roids. This view ha9 helped to
stimulate speculation in Illinois Central, which has advanced from

figures as these, (a consumption and export supply of
60,000 for 25 weeks,) and the increased receipts and shipments since

by any means authorized; for that price will not furnish a sufficient in
ducement to the Southern planters to raise
cotton,except to a very limited
extent, and would largely reduce the production in India and elsewhereSo far
as
the United States is concerned, with
five per cent tax; with
existing difficulties of transportation at the South; with the necessity
for the reorganizing of labor, and the
high rate paid for labor and all
the necessaries of life, cotton at the present time cannot be

by a reaction.
during the week has been depressed in sympathy
with reports from Liverpool, but the concession made in
prices does not
exceed six cents per lb. currency, in
response to nearly nine cents cur¬
rency decline at Liverpool. This is due to the feeling that there must be a
reaction, and holders therefore are unwilling to accept the full decline
of the panic. The sales for the week are

Lehigh Canal Company have
works, thus giving to Philadelphia the benefit of an entire
water communication from the Lehigh coal region under a single
management. This arrangement, as we learn, secures to the stock¬

are now
being made, and with every prospect of success, to extend and
complete the Concord & Claremont Railroad from its present
terminus atjBradford to Claremont on the Connecticut River.
Newport and other large towns lying along the route will be large¬
ly benefitted by this extension, but the great advantages of the
road in a business point of view will be in making it a connecting
link in a through line from Boston to the West, and in this it will
meet one of the greatest wants of that city, increased accommoda¬
tion for its western business.
This line completed, the Rutland &
Burlington Company will extend it to Cavendish or some neigh¬
boring point on their road and so open the whole projected line
registered on the via Rutland. The distance from Bradford to the Connecticut
will receive $2,600,000, or 40 per cent on their capital River is about thirty miles and from the Connecticut River to the
of $6,500,000 in bonds or scrip, convertible into full paid shares on Rutland & Burlington road twenty miles at farthest, making a to¬
tal length to be constructed not more than 50 miles. This will be
or before June 12, on payment of £0 per cent of the par value of
a very direct route
and in the future will have the advantage even
the scrip. In other words, the extra dividend is equal to 32 per over the more
expensive route by the Hoosac tunnel, which more¬
