previously decided, in the famous gold contract

nation. And this proud eminence has been gained for it not
mole
by the intellectual strength of its opinions and by the
thorough patience of its discussions, than by its consistent selfrespect in recognizing and adhering to its own traditions and
authority. It is startling at any time to see such a Court
doubting its own judgments. It is still more startling to see
it questioning the validity of its settlement of a question so
important as this, to which the most careful and long con¬
tinued study has been given. It is, above all, startling to see
it doing this suddenly, immediately after the termination of
its own protracted deliberations on the subject, and actually
before there has been time for the official publication of the
very decree it now reconsiders.
This would be bad enough of itself. It would go far to
weaken the respect of the people for the Court. But the
observer, unfortunately, cannot stop here.

made, it was confidently announced by irresponsible reporters
for several daily journals that it could not be allowed to stand
as law, but that the two vacancies then
existing in ttfe Court
would be so filled as to throw the majority of the Court
against the decision. When the names of the two new
Judges,fwere before the Senate for confirmation, the same
report was renewed; and it was said that Judges Strong and
Bradley were both committed beforehand against the previous
judgment of the Court, and would, if confirmed, aid the

making a decrease in net earnings of $22,788 46.
The policy adopted in 1868 of placing the line, as rapidly as prac¬
ticable, in good condition, was steadily maintained during 1869. Not¬
withstanding a very considerable floating debt was created previous to
1869 in furtherance of this object, the Board decided to continue this
liberal policy until the road could be regarded as in first-class condition.
The very heavy expenditures of the past two years, incurred m the
effort to place the road in first-class condition, have created a floating
debt amounting to $972,290 82.
Although so much has been accomplished, a great amount of work
upon the road remains to be done, and additional equipment must be
provided to meet the rapidly-increa?iog traffic.

The Cincinnati and Baltimore
Board authorizing a

Railway.—Under the resolution of the
subscription for $250,000 of tha capital stock of
the Cincinnati aDd Baltimore
Company, the Marietta and Cincinnati
Company has subscribed and paid for $100,000 of stock, and advanced
$72,929 in cash, additionally. During the great financial stringency,
prevailing through the entire year, very little progress was made in
obtaining individual subscriptions to the stock, but efforts will be
renewed to secure
subscriptions in Cincinnati. The guarantee by the
Marietta and Cincinnati
Company of a dividend of eight per cent
annually, free of tax, makes this a most desirable investment.

PARKERSBURG

The Baltimore and Ohio
Company has pressed with great
work upon this structure, and has
completed all the piers in

vigor the
the Ohio
river. A large amount of work has also been done
upon both shores:
and there is
every reason to suppose that the bridge will be finished
in 1870.
This improvement is of the
greatest value to the Marietta
and Cincinnati
Company, and a large increase of revenue, particularly
from through traffic,
may be anticipated upon its completion.
GENERAL REMARKS.

The

large outlays upon the road during 1868 and 1869 have greatly
improved its material condition, which may now be regarded as
superior to that of any previous period in the Company’s history. The
singular exemption from accident, with which a schedule for passenger
trains, much faster tjtian heretofore in operation, has been maintained,
and with which the
large freight traffic has been performed, is suffi¬
cient evidence cf the wisdom and true
economy of these expenditures.
There is every reason to believe that the business of the
Company for
187 > will exceed that of
any previous year.
From the relief to the financial condition of the
Company, by sale of
bonds proposed to be issued, it is
expected that the Company will be
able to furnish at all times sufficient
equipment to perform any amount
cf
business it can secure.
The completion of the Cincinnati and Baltimore
railway and the
Ohio river bridge at
Parkersburg, together with the improvements,
which will be vigorously
pressed, will furnish a first-class line from
Cincinnati to the Atlantic seaboard, shorter than
any exieting route,
and the ultimate success of the
Company cannot ne doubted.
No settlement having been effected
regarding $155,0- 0 second

mortgage bond not accounted for by S. B. Keys, or Keys <k Brother,
referred

to in last

annual

report, suit has been ordered against A. L.

Mowry, Samuel B. Keys, and George E. Bend.

London, Saturday, March 26, 1870.
three weeks the Chancellor of the Exchequer

will deliver his annual financial statement, and, on this occasion, it is
forward to with more than usual interest. Mr. Lowe’s first

looked

Budget took all parties by surprise, and there is every probability that
surplus at the close of the current financial year will be so consider
able that some important remissions of taxation will be effected.
Such a course, if proposed- and adopted, will exert a very beueficial
influence on the condition of affairs and give a stimulus to business ; for
there is no doubt that taxation is heavy, and that by some classes is
too severely felt.
In addition to the many reform! which have been
inaugurated by the present government, one of a very useful character,
is the publication, week by week, of the revenue and expenditure
of the government,
Not long since the revenue returns were only
published quarterly ; but we are now turnished with them weekly
and they are brought up to a late period.
The statement published
this week shows the receipts into and the payments out of the
Exchequer betwren April 1,1869, and March 19, 1870. The re¬
ceipts into the Exchequer in that period were £72,898,928, and as
about ten days have got to run before the financial year expires, Mr.
Lowe’s estimate of £73,515,000 is likely to be more than verified.
In
the corresponding period cf last year the receipts were £69,657 651.
The receipts from income tax have exceeded the estimate by £337,000.
The expenditure in the above period has been £65,377, 849, which is
the

about £3,030,000 under the estimate, and £5,000,000 less for the cor¬

responding period last year, so that altogether the financial position of
the country is very satisfactory.
What Mr. Lowe will propose to do
with the surplus is very uncertain. There may be a further reduction
of income tax, the sixpenny duty on tea may be removed, or the tax
on m&lt, which is twenty-two
shillings per quarter, may be remitted.
Of this, however, we may be certain—that Mr. Lowe’s
sagacity will
lead him to suggest changes which are likely to conduce to the
pros¬
perity of the country at large.
Although the rate of interest in the open market is quite equal to
the bank maximum of 3 per ceut, there a^e indications that the
quota¬
tions will socn become easier.
The Paris exchaoge is very firm, in
consequence of which there is no demand for gold for export. The
leading houses here appear to have had a large supply of gold ou hand,
£269,000 having been sent into the bank this week. On Monday
about £400,000 in Australian gold will be delivered, and it is expected
that the whole of this will also be purchased by the bank.
The pesition of the bank continues to improve, and the next
,

statement is almost certain

to show

a

further considerable increase of

now as much as £20,314,811
than at this period of last year. The
reserve of notes and coin is £13.215 ,836, showing an increase of
£3,120,000. These figures clearly indicate a continuance of ease in
the money market, and it is quite expected that as soon as the dividend
money is released, amounting to about £6,000,000, and the mercantile
payments of the South have been met, the rates for money out of door8
will be much easier. The present quotations for money are as under :

Market.—The week opened with rather more
activity, but closes with a comparatively easy feeling. The last
bank statement showed some unexpectedly important chaDge3.
The deposits were down $2,500,000, and the legal lenders were
$2,670,000 lower, while the specie line was $2,380,000 lower; the
result being a decrease of $4,433,000 in the surplus over legal
reserve.
In the loans there was an increase of $949,010. These
material changes appear to have been due mainly to artificial
manipulation of the market for speculative purposes, as no import¬
ant shipments of currency were made to any point except Phdadelphia, and the remittances to that cry are not ea<y of explana¬
tion, money there having been quoted easy at 5@6 per cent on
call. These manipulations were appuiently continued at the open¬
ing of the week, for there was a scarcity of legal teuders which
could not be accounted for by any exterior movements, and which
were explainable only on the supposition that greenbacks were
“locked up.” The operation, however, was undertaken upon a
market too well supplied with funds to have any effect, and, about
the middle of the week they were abandoned.
Money has since
been coming in from Chicago and other points west, and f.om some
of the surrounding cities, and, at the close, the supply is abundant
on call at 5@6 per cent, with very exceptional transactions at 7
per eenf.
From all sections the reports represent money as accu¬
mulating, and unless trade should suddenly revive an easy market
through the rummer months may apparently be expected. The
erudition of the banks or. Saturday 1-st compares as follows with

The discount market has been rather

closer, owing to the ad¬

paper coming on the market; but, with the prospect of being
unable to make good rates on call loans, the demand is active and
the stock of paper in broker’s hands is very limited, especially so
with respect to first-class names. Respecting the lower grades,
however, there is still considerable call ion, the natural legacy cd

Bonds.—Speculation in these securities during the week
generally tame, and dealings limited and devoid of special
interest. In marked exception, however, the Tennessee?, especial¬
ly the new issue, have been active, and the price carried up from
5(-Jto5fl-f. This advance Was mainly due to the unusually large
short interest outstanding, which is various’y estimated at seven to
ten millions.
Those best informed in regard to the finances of the
State, however, have been free purchasers, and c nsiderable
amounts have been taken by European capitalists
The old issues,
though less active, have been firm at 59(gp9£. The North Caro]inas have been steady on moderate transactions, the inquiry for
Virginias having been li i ited. The Louisiana securities have been
firm on small sales, Missouri? and South Carolina? dull, and Alabamas strong, the last named bonds rising to 97^ for the eight per
cents. On Thursday the Arkansas seven per" cents were placed on
call at the Stock Exchange, and sold at 75. These bonds were
issued by the Stale to the Little Rock and Fort Smith Railway
Company. New Yor State bounty bonds found ready sale at.109^

We have had a firm though quiet market the past week, attend¬
ed with considerable improvement in prices, this improvement

being due wholly to the upward movement at Liverpool acting
upon a very

small stock here.

Desirable qualities

are very scarce,

that holders have the advantage, but buyers operate very spar¬
ingly. There is a general feeling in the market, especially among
so

receivers, that prices are to go higher this summer, so that the
•lightest cause operates quickly to give the market an upward
turn now that receipts have fallen to so low a point.
Spinners,
however, buy only to supply immediate wants, and exporters oper¬
ate with great caution, as our prices are above the parity of Liver¬

European consumption for 8 weeks. .674,811
From the above it appears that the consumption in Europe
during the first two months of this year has been 674,811 bales,
against 746,809 bales last year, or 84,351 bales per week for Jan¬
uary and February, 1870, against 93,351 bales for January and
February, 1869. These figures are, however, of course, imperfect,
as they do not include stocks held by the mills at the two periods,
but they certainly indicate that the requirements of Europe have
not been as large as generally represented.
Still, even if we make
the consumption up to October 1 at 93,000 bales per week, the
stocks of Europe at that date will be considerably increased.

firm position, but the movements in other descriptions have
been spasmodic and uncertain with indications of late that the
increased cost could not be sustained, In fact buyers are
still unwilling to depart from the policy of confining opera¬
tions just as closely to absolute necessities as possible, and
there is evidence of a growing distrust in their own judgment

At the advance of
per lb, gold, Doted last week, the
for Rio Coffee has remained extremely firm, with a fair

market
demand

prevailing from the regular jobbing trade. Business, however, has
been somewhat restricted by the unusually small supply available,
and many of the most anxious buyers have thought it advisable to
secure desirable invoices and cargoes before arrival.
During the
next two or three weeks moderate receipts are anticipated, not only
here but at all the principal seaboard towns, adding greatly to the
confidence of holders; but we find a pretty general disposition to
accept full figures, when bid, as current rates admit of a larger
margin for profit than for several months. The market c oses firm.
West India styles have been held with firmness, but are dull, beyond
the ordinary retail trade from second hands, Java appears to show
a rather more healthy tone, most of the old stock off odd, broken
parcels having been worked off, and the trade giving some attention
to the recent arrivals, which costing laid down here, lully up to
current figures, is held with firmness. The sales include 4,270 bags
Santo*; 5,115 bags Rio, on spot; and 6,278. to arrive : 3,100 bags
Maracaibo, 2,400 mats Java, and 50 do Cost* Rica. Of Maracaibo
we notice the arrival to-day of 3,533 bags of Maracaibo, p;r “ J,
M. Morales,” and 3,385 bags do. per “Millie Gay.”
The only imports of the week have been 600 bags of St. Domingo.

instances to force sales ; this is not
unlikely, especially with the lighter
weight goods. Buyers have manifested but little disposition to obtain
