CONTRACTION OF THE CURRENCY.
of the last few days relative to the part
MB. McCULLOCH AND
The discussions
operations of the Treasury have played in producing the
stringency in the money market, have elicited several
not unimportant or uninteresting facts.
First, it has been acknowledged on the part of Mr, McCul.
loch that, of the $81,000,000 of currency locked up in the
Treasury on the first of August, more than $32,000,000 were
in the New York office, while of the rest a considerable por¬
tion was probably about to be concentrated there.
A very
large proportion of this sum had been quite recently taken
in, the New, York balance alone having increased $20,000,000
in three weeks.
Now, the sudden withdrawal of such a mass
of currency from activity would at any time have produced
disturbance, but especially so at the particular time of its
occurrence, when the payments of internal revenue called for
the
recent
a
large supply of currency, and when capital was being largely
impracticable, over 40 millions of dollars have been
paid out of the New York Sub-Treasury, and the payments
are continuing to be much more free and satisfactory.
The
stringency of the loan market has been relaxed, and what is
of more importance, the confidence of the public that Mr.
McCulloch is not about to try any such reckless experiments
in finance as deprived some of his predecessors of popularity
and power, has caused the seven-thirties, and the certificates
of indebtedness to advance in public favor, and ha9 given
stability in other ways to the credit of the government.
But how, we may be asked, is Mr. McCulloch to contract
the issues of paper money ? On the one side he is complain¬
ed of as tampering with the currency, and causing perturba¬
tions in the great financial machinery of the nation, because he
dams up the current of the circulation; and on the other side
he is blamed because the volume of paper money is increas¬
ing, and he is urged to shut down the floodgates, and prevent
the further rise of the gorged and overflowing current.
To this the reply is obvious. A judicious, conservative,
and wisely adjusted contraction of the currency is desired by
all sound financial authorities. Our paper money at present
consists of about $1,000,000,000, which is far more than is
required by the business of the country. How much is the
amount of excess can only be discovered by experiment; but

do not fix upon this amount positively, but only approxi¬
mately, as the maximum. But whatever be the aggregate
of circulation which the country can keep afloat and use for
its daily exchanges, it is inevitable that-all issues beyond
that sum must be paid off and withdrawn before we can re¬
turn to a specie basis.
Both in and out of Congress, men very often talk as if we

EMIGRATION.
Commissioners of Emigration, it ap¬
pears that 184,700 emigrants reached this city from Europe
during the year 1864. In addition to these, thousands were
landed at Boston and other points under the direction of
Federal recruiting agents, who, as a matter of private spec¬
ulation, sent over several shiploads,, chiefly from Belgium and
Germany. But the above figures do not fairly represent the
influx of the foreign element into our midst.
While the
strife was pending and the issue still undertermined, the cur¬
rent of emigration slackened, and its character was changed.
It consisted principally of adventurers.
But now- the flood¬
gates have been reopened and a more constant and healthier
tide pours in. They come now with their wives and children,
in search of peaceful homes and fields of industry, and
doubtless, in most cases, impelled by an instinctive appreci¬
ation of the stability and benificence of our political system.
The masses of Europe, though* perhaps ignorant of the
questions involved in the late struggle, were nevertheless
aware that the strength and vitality of the Republic was be¬
ing tested, and in the triumph of the Federal arms they recog¬
nize a judgment in favor of republican institutions.
The re¬
sult of the war will, therefore, beyond a doubt, give impulse
; and
vigor to the tide of emigration. It has already done so,
as the
emigrant returns for the past three months prove.

GREAT BRITAIN.
LONDON AND LIVERPOOL DATES TO JULY 29.
The chief feature of interest in the London money market during
the week was the increase by the Bank of England of the rate of
interest from 3 to 3$ per cent. This action, which was induced by
the continued drain of gold, was generally anticipated, and had the
effect of imparting great steadiness to the market. It was expect¬
ed that the increase would be to 4 per cent, but the large reserve
of unemployed notes, and the general steadiness in the foreign mar¬
kets, sufficiently account for the minimum amount adopted by the
Bank.
There is almost

to come.
.
A sum of £41,000,000 has been invested in new companies dur¬
ing the six months ending June 30. Most of this sum has been
invested in joint stock enterprises. The immense amount thus in¬
vested is more apparent than real, a fact that is proved by the ab¬
sence of disturbing influences in the market, such as would take
place if the total had been diverted to new channels. A large part
of the sum consists of money transferred from one set of hands for
good will, stocks in trade, and extension of business, and not a fourth
part of the money has been called up, or is likely to be. Under
these circumstances there is no reason to apprehend any excitement
ib the money market. This fact, and the cheering accounts of the
harvest, confirms the general confidence in the future. The demand
for gold for home circulation
simultaneous requirements for
has lately been stimulated by the
the elections, the dividends, and the
harvest, while the rather large shipments of the past fortnight
have been partly to Egypt and Brazil for cotton, but chiefly it is
believed for remittances. to Spain,, that country being, as was
formerly the case with Turkey* always able to find parties to whom
the temptation of the enormous rates she is compelled to offer is
more powerful than any other consideration, and who are, therefore,
the last to desire any early restoration of her credit.
A prospectus has been issued of the International Sugar Refin¬
eries Company, limited, capital £1,000,000, in 50,000 shares of
£20 each, with 5 per cent interest on all capital called up until
eighteen months after the inauguration of the company. The
object is to carry on the business of sugar refiners and. merchants
.in sugars in Great Britain, Ireland, France, and Belgium, “ and, if
so resolved by the shareholders, in any other country.”
It is
pointed out that the international commission has resolved upon
the equalization of the drawbacks, so that the English trade will
now be placed on the same footing as the French, and as the Bel¬
gian and Dutch.” Contracts have been entered into by Messrs.
Fontifex & Wood for the supply and erection of the necessary
machinery. The prospectus further states that “ it is at present
intended to erect refineries in London and in France, each capable
of refining 1,000 tons raw sugar per week. The directors also
propose to purchase or erect a refinery at Liverpool.”
The Great Indian Peninsula Railway have withdrawn their ad¬
vertisement offering £600,000 debentures, arrangements having been
come to by which they are ail placed.
The first section of the Smyrna and Cassaba Railway, a length
of 23 miles, extending to Boumabut and Menemen, was opened on
the 20th inst. The engineer reports that the second section of 20
miles to Magnesia will be opened early in October, and the whole
line, 61 miles in length, to Cassaba, will be completed before the
close of the present year. The line has been constructed by Eng¬
lishmen and with English capital.
The traffic receipts of railways in the United Kingdom amounted
for the week ending the 22d of July, on 12.079 miles, to £742,657,
and for the corresponding week of last year, on 11,660 miles, to
£711,275, showing an increase of 419 miles and of £31,382.
The Reuter’s Telegram Company report that the net profits have
considerably exceeded the scale of revenue for the past three years,
on which the purchase of the business was based.
An available
.
total is shown of £3,253 and a dividend at the rate of 8 per cent
per annum is recommended, which on the capital, as paid up, will
absorb on £611. The sum of £200 is to be written off preliminary
expenses and £2,442 is to be carried forward. The contracts which
transferred to the company by Mr. Reuter have proved re¬
munerative and others of an advantageous kind have, it is said,
since been concluded.

A
prospectus has also been issued of the Insurance Corporation
Britain, with a capital of £4 000,000 in shares of £50.
The Liverpool cotton trade was languid during the week under
the influences of the New York advices of large quantities on
of Great
hand in the United States. Great heaviness prevailed in conse¬
quence, and the week closed with a decline in most descriptions.
The finer kinds of Sea Island were in demand at ^extreme prices,

nental buyers were the principal operators, although their transac¬
tions were comparatively limited. Tnere wa3 a slight enquiry for
China. Good printing cloths show much stiffness in
price; but
this is not the case with lower qualities. The tendency of prices
under the present restrained demand is rather against the sellers of
longcloths, T cloths, and domestics.
There was little business in Nottingham durmg the week. Bay¬
ers were holding off for more favorable rates, and manufacturers are
engaged in completing orders. Black silk< laces and nets were in
demand at higher rates. The hosiery trade is dull, with a downward
tendency in prices.
The trade at Dewsbury is satisfactory, Buyers have purchased
freely of pilots and witneys for home consumption. Velvets, che¬
viots, meltons, and sealskins maintain an average position in the
markets, and low flushings are a saleable article. No change of
importance has taken place in the blanket trade. Orders come in
but sparingly, and the sorts mostly wanted are of a medium qual¬
ity. Stocks are said to be rather heavy, and this interferes with
employment. The carpet trade is quiet, but there is sufficient to
keep the mills moderately well employed.
At Birmingham the demand for hardware goods is limited. The
makers of heavy hardware are nearly all busy, some of them on
government contracts. There is a brisk demand for iron and steel
ware for remote markets.1 The iron trade is dull, few of the Stafford¬
shire forges and mills wording full time.
There is a slight improvement in Sheffield, orders coming in for
home consumption. The reduced tariff with the German Zollverein
has largely stimulated the trade in saws, files, and heavy tools gener¬
ally. American agents and merchants who have just come over
speak very hopefully of the prospects of trade with the States. An
impression gains ground that the American duties on English and
other foreign goods will, before long, be modified for revenue pur¬
poses. Most of the old staple trades are busy; the silver-plated and
Britannia-metal branches are exceptions, orders especially for the
home markets being small.
At Bradford there is marked absence of demand, induced, appar¬
ently, by the uncertainty respecting the quantity of cotton to ba
brought forward. The obstacle to business i3 that manufacturers
are unable to deliver quickly ; and any abatement they might ba
disposed to make on orders for distant delivery is no inducement to
the customer who cannot give time. Manufacturers of fancy goods
continue busy.

Miscellaneous Stocks.—The stock market
has been
depressed throughout the week. The heated term
has driven some of the larger operators into country retreats,
and the high rate of interest has, at the same time, operated
against speculation. The brokers complain that there has
never been such a scarcity of orders from the outside
public.
This, indeed, has been the condition of the market for a con¬
siderable period, and appears to have a definite cause.
During the distribution of the national securities there has
been a general changing of the tenure of railroad shares.
The large amounts usually held by merchants in this city as
an investment for their surplus funds have been exchanged
for governments, the railroad stock passing into the hands of
western buyers and of the directors and other capitalists con¬
nected with the roads in this city. With this reduction of
the volume of railroad shares in the possession of the gene¬
ral public, there is naturally less response to any speculative
operations started by the larger holders, than formerly. This
change gives a new phase to stock operations in this city, and
tends to keep the market in a more even condition.
The transactions during the week have been quite limited,
and the fluctuations in prices unimportant. Mariposa has for
the present almost disappeared from the market, not one sale of
the stock having been made at the board during the week.
*■
j
'
Canton and Quicksilver are also dull. In the railroads list,
Erie has exhibited the chief interest. After the arrival of
the steamship Cuba, the price rose to 89, upon a rumor that
advices had arrived
stating that negotiations had been
summated at London for
a
loan that would enable the
con¬
com
the Drew loan, and prosecute a still further
transportation facilities of the road. There
appears to be some foundation for this statement. The large
amount of freight
offering for the western roads, and the
prospect of a plentiful harvest supplying them to the utmost
of their carrying capacity,
keep the stocks of that section
pany to pay off
extension of the
firm.

Government Securities have been in connection with the
foreign demand. The sales of old 5-20’s for European de¬
mand have aggregated probably $3,000,000 for the week.
This has kept the old issue of 5-20’s at about 106; and being
higher than other bonds, holders of 5-20’s have freely ex¬
changed [them for 10-40’s, new 5-20’s and 6’s of 1881; pro¬
ducing an increased firmness in the quotations of those stocks.
The new certificates of indebtedness are issued slowly, and
the price is therefore firm.
The supply of 7-30’s from con¬
tractors continues liberal, but without producing any depre¬
ciation of price.
Investors appear to consider them cheap
at 99 a 99 1-4, and would be found ready to take a large
amount at that price.
Should they decline below that figure,
being then cheaper than other securities, they would be ex¬
changed for other forms of debt; indeed a considerable
amount of old 5-20’s has been exchanged for the first and
second series of 7-30’s during the week.

high rate of interest, an indisposition to lend to the gold

large surplus of gold, have proved too strong for the party
who have for some weeks past been speculating for a rise
and has produced a decline from 144 3-4 on Monday to
140 3-4 to-day.
The gold clique have been large sellers for
last two days, and have loaned gold freely with a liberal

allowance of interest. It is difficult to divine the policy of
the “ bull ” clique, whose influence has for some time been
omnipotent, and who still possess considerable power over
the market
In the event of their continuing to bolster up
the premium, they would receive material aid from the
large demand of customs duties, and with a cessation of
sales by the Assistant Treasurer and a decline in the rate forr
money, they might succeed in putting up tlie price; but
should the sales from the Sulp Treasury be continued, and
money remain at 7 per cent, a further decline would be quite
probable. The Costa Rica from Aspinwall has brought $721,034 of

each recurring week in July has now almost entirely ceased. The
movement of merchandize, except under fitful speculative operations,
has been much reduced ; and all who are engaged in regular busi¬
disposition to keep affairs very close—protecting them¬
selves as much as possible from risk of violent fluctuations. Al¬
though gold, has been at more than 40 per cent premium for several
months there seems to be a sort of re awakening to the fact that
our currency (and consequently all values,) is in a very unsettled
state, and that operations based upon an ignoring of this fact are
in daDger of receiving a very rude shock.
The cotton market has steadily declined under large receipts. In
Breadstuffs there has been a new speculative movement, but the ad¬
vance realized "was not supported.
The Pork speculation has been
weak and prices declined ; other Provisions slightly lower. Coffee
has shown more strength in gold prices.
Intelligence from Rio
Janeiro to the 5th July is more favorable, especially to the finer
sorts; the clearances from Rio, to all ports, in June, were 162,000

prevailing depression i3 probably due to the current re
port (accepted as true) that the -government is selling gold. A
Washington telegram says the government will sell gold at average
rate of a million dollars daily, till the reserve is reduced twenty
millions ; in which case, as the receipts of the government are near¬
ly half a million daily, the sales may be kept up till nearly the 1st
of October. Imports continue large, and of our exports, cotton is
the principal item. The speculations in Breadstuffs and Provisions
have curtailed their export materially. The receipts of Domestic
Produce, except of cottou, are scarcely up to the average.

subject to wild fluctuations the past week.
the prices were steadily declining under
liberal receipts, limited export orders, and a dull trade. A return
of rainy weather in the Northwest excited the markets at
Chicago
and Milwaukee, and led to a large advance in
prices. The influence
of that movement was felt in this market, on
Wednesday, and after
‘Change an advance of about ten cents per bushel was realized in
Hpringf Wheat, $1 52 having been paid for Amber Club, and fully
half a dollar advance was realized
in-shipping Flour, 87 having
been paid for extra State.
With the execution of the speculative
orders from the West, prices fell off about 5 cents
per bushel in
Wheat, and 25 cents per barrel in Flour. Winter Wheats,-as well
as Corn and
Oats, were somewhat advanced in sympathy with the
general excitement. The higher grades of Flour were simply more
active, without quotable change in prices.
Au average of about 25.000 bushels Wheat are
going into store
daily at this market. The season is rather early for so large au ac¬

THE CHRONICLE.
1 cent in prices.
The appearance in market
quantities of goods from newly starting Southern
Mills, together with the general lull in trade has had its effect in
bringing about this reduction. With this slight variation in prices
agents have disposed of nearly all leading styles of goods on hand,
and report a demand greater than can be supplied. Jobbers still
report an unusual dullness in trade and are casting about for some
remedy. It looks now asm a slight reduction in the price of some
articles would be necessary., though there are not goods enough on
band to warrant the panic which a reduction of one cent would be
Jikely to produce. Agents report coarse goods comparatively
abundant while all kinds of fine goods are in demand, and quickly
a
a
of considerable
taken.
Domestic Cottons have been the most active, though there can¬
not be said to have been more than a moderate activity in any
branch of the trade. The large receipts of Cotton, and the increas¬
ing capacity of the mills must still further affect prices, a fact
which is quite well understood by buyers, although the season is
growing late, and goods will soon have to be taken at almost any
price.

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.
The unsettled condition of the
Exchange in Balti- week, has resulted in
a
Dry Goods’ Market noticed last
general softening in the tone‘of the market.
THE CHRONICLE.
August 12,1865.]
reduction of 1 a 1 cent in prices. The appearance in market
of considerable quantities of goods from newly starting Southern
Mills, together with the general lull in trade has had its effect in
and
a
bringing about this reduction. With this slight variation in prices
agents have disposed of nearly all leading styles of goods on hand,
and report a demand greater than can be supplied. Jobbers still
report an unusual dullness in trade and are casting about for some
remedy. It looks now as if a slight reduction in the price of some
articles would be necessary, though there are not goods enough on
band to warrant the panic which a reduction of one cent would be
jikely to produce. Agents report coarse goods comparatively
abundant while all kinds of fine goods are in demand, and quickly
taken.
Domestic' Cottons have been the most active, though there can¬
not be said to have been more than a moderate activity in any
branch of the trade.

La Crosse Railroad.—The U. S. Circuit Court has
just
con¬
before the
season
cluded a Special Terra at Milwaukee, to dispose of the litigation
connected with the Eastern Division of the La Crosse and Milwaukee Railroad.
The practical results of all the decisions is that the
commenced.
Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad
the
Company will pay to the re¬
ceiver, on or before September 1, in cash or coupons of the second
mortgage the sura of $126,849, which deducted from the amount re¬
quired to be paid by the Milwaukee and Minnesota Company to
preveut a sale ($571,130) leaves the sura of $444,289 to be paid by
the latter party on or before September 27.
In cise of non-pay¬
ment the sale is to take place six months after granting the order.
The portion of the road covered by the mortgage and affected by
this litigation is the line of the La Crosse and Milwaukee Railroad
from Milwaukee to Portage, a length of ninety-five miles.
The
mortgages on this lino to F. A. Palmer and the city of Milwaukee,
which are prior to the second mortgage, amount to the sum of
$1,200,000 r the second mortgage to $1,571,139, making together
the sum of $2,771,139, all of which is undisputed.
In addition to
this amount, the following judgments were rendered and dockctted
prior to the making of the Baiue’s mortgage, on the closure of
which the Milwaukee and Minnesota Company was formed:
Chamberlin’s judgment
Cleveland judgment
Meicantile Bank
Sebre Howard

the Chamberlin
judgement,
over
$100,000, all of which judgments are.claimed to be liens on this
property prior to the right of the Minnesota Company, and suits
are now pending to enforce them.
The examination of these figures shows that the admitted mort¬
gage liens on the property, prior to the Minnesota Company, are
over $29,000-per mile, and the mortgage and judgment liens more
than $40,000 per mile.
With these facts before
us,
and the further fact that the securi¬
ties of the Milwaukee and Prairie du Chieu
Company, a through
through business, and entirely free from litigation, are
now selling at less than $20,000 per mile, we leave
for conjecture
the probability of the payment to prevent a sale being made-at all.
Should the sale be made the 'purchaser is probably ready iu the
person of the Milwaukee and St. Paul Company, over four-fifths of
the second mortgage, anti all the judgements above named being
owned or controlled by the directors of that company.
We conclude therefore that the line will ultimately be re-annexed

Essex Railroad.—The extension of this road from
Phillipsburg on the Delaware is being vigorously
prosecuted, and will probably be completed in time for the winter
coal trade. This extension will connect it with the Lehigh Valley
Railroad, with the Lehigh Canal Company’s Railroad, now in
course of construction and nearly completed, and with the East
Pennsylvania Railroad, which is proposed to be extended from its
present terminus at Allentown to Easton, opposite Phillipsburg.
These roads will supply the Morris and Essex immediately on its
completion, with an immense tonnage for transportation, and
it must become one of the most important avenues for the transpor¬
tation of coal from the Lehigh and Eastern Schuylkill regions, aud
will also form a part of the great through line to Cincinnati and
Chicago and the West generally, via the Lehigh Valley, Allen¬
town, Pennsylvania and Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago
Railroads. The Company is now using the remaining $1,000,000
of its mortgage bonds. These bonds are secured upon the main
road completed aud in the course of completion, from Hoboken on
the Hudson, to Phillipsburg on the Delaware, and upon the branch
from Danville to Newark, including all rights, real estate, rolling
stock and other property of the company, and form a first-class
security.
Mountain Railroads.—Pending the completion of the tunnel
of seveu and a half miles through Mont Cenis, and which, as more
thau four and a half miles remain to be pierced, will yet require
seven or eight years, the Messrs. Brassey have taken steps towards
the construction of a railway over the mountain to supply the break
of 47 miles now existing between St. Michel and Susa in the line
of communication between France and Italy.
An experimental
line has been already constructed on the French side between
Lanslebourg and the summitt, a distance of a mile aud a quarter.
Captain Tyler reports officially to the British Board of Trade that
this experimental line possesses a mean gradient of one in thirteen
and a maximun one of one in twelve. - It passes round a sharp
corner, joining two of the zigzags of ascent on a curve with about
two chains radius, and was purposely constructed on the most diffi¬
cult portion of the route.
Horizontal driving wheels act on a
middle rail. The importance of these results to the future of rail¬
way construction in mountainous countries can, therefore, be hardly
over estimated.
Captain Tyler believes that the rail will be safer

principle of insurance to trav¬
ellers risks has become so popular. For an annual premium of five
dollars, one can secure in the National Life a policy for as many
thousand'dollars, payable in case of accidental death on a raiiroad
or steamboat, and
by the payment of an additional ten dollars, pro¬

ing from injuries recieved. It well becomes those who spend much
of their time travelling to secure a policy in such a company. The
National Life also insures against general accidents fora very small
