alleged secret treaty between France and

Times on
Monday morning last caused much surprise, and even the Minis

that they knew not

It has since transpired, how
ever, that such a document does exist, and from Prussian sources
it is affirmed that it is in the

Exchange this week,
owing to the recent heavy fail in prices. Some important houses
have
stopped, but it is expected that the worst has now been
got over,
The first consol settlement,
however, since the declaration of war, will
take place next week, and as consols have fallen
from 93 to 89 at a
time when an improvement was looked forward
to, some further diffi.
culties may be
apprehended.
Business in the Stock
Exchange is
almost at a standstill.
Only the very best firms can deal for time, and
these probably are
indisposed to keep open books. There is,however

already known to the American public, but
from whom the
proposals came in the first instance is still a
matter of uncertainty.
Some say that M. Benedetti and his
master have been outwitted
by M. Bismarck and the King of
a demand from the public

for investment for British

and that M. Bismarck had
inveigled M. Bendetti to commit them Indian guaranteed railway shares, five twenty bonds, ten-forties,and,
to paper for his further consideration.
This may possibly be the to some extent, Spanish bonds.

It will be seen that, while
the expenses have been

considerably larger, being during the past
inclusive t f taxes, 60 27-100 per cent, of gross earnings, while
last year they were 53 58-100.
This increase in the proportion of the operating expenses has been
partly owing to the diminished revenue, while the expenses could not
be reduced in proportion ; and partly because there have been ad¬
ditional roads brought into use where the business, not being fully de¬
veloped, and comparatively light, the ratio of expenses upon them has
been greater in proportion to the business than elsewhere.
The
reduction of pricep, for both passenger and freight business, has also, in

The passenger business of the company has been largely in excess
that of 1S6S-9, the prior year. The revenues from it have been

excess
only $59,014 77, the fares having been considerably reduced
below the average of the former year. The whole net earnings for the
year, from both freight and passenger business, above all operating ex¬
penses and interest, and the amount paid for bonds for sinking fund and
cancelled, has been about 15 per cent.‘ on the average capital of the

year.
The Lewiston

Branch, from Yates City to Lewiston, long since fully
paid for itself in the business which it brought to the road of this com¬
pany. That portion of the road formerly styled the American Central,
between Galva, on our main trunk, and New Boston, on the Mississippi,
was next
opened, a distance of fifty miles, about eight months since. It
has since added to ihe revenues of this company $184,009 68, with a
disastrous year, as it may be styled, for business. That from Burling¬
ton to Keokuk has been
opened about six months, and has added to
our gross revenues
$69,966.26. The Peoria and Hannibal, which is the
extension of the Lewiston Branch to Rushville about thirty miles, and
which has been open about the same time, has produced $79,876.
The Dixon, Peoria and Hannibal, so called, which is about forty-four
miles long, is
properly an extension of the Lewiston and Rushville
Branch, northward, till it strikes the main trunk at Buda, is not quite
ready for use, but is doing considerable business. This branch from
■Buda to Rushville constitutes a direct line running south from Buda
one hundred
miles, all the business of which will pass over the main
hne to
Chicago, about one hundred and twenty miles, and will, for
local traffic, be
quite as important as the same distance on the main
line, and constitutes the shortest possible line from the country through
which it runs to
Chicago. The Carthage and Burlington road, though
its main line has been some
time laid, yet was received by this com¬




companies upon
the portion of roads leased to our company, and are liable to be re¬
deemed from the net earnings of the business added by those roads to
the general business of our road.
These bonds are eight per cent, bonds, and issued at different times,
and amount in the gross, upon all the branch roads, to $3,800,000.

.

The business, or net profits to this company from the business fur¬
nished to it by those roads, will, it is believed, in six or eight years,
absorb those bonds entirely, leaving the lateral roads the property of
this company at only the coat of the money which it has advanced to

aid in their

completion.

exports however have not been large.
The iollowiug table will show the course of the
gold premium

BREADSTUFFS.
Friday. P. M, August 13,1870.

The market for breadstuffs shows

general decline daring
past week and closes more steady. The receipts of floar have
been liberal; the flour sold in July for August delivery begins to
come forward, and is thrown upon
this market to a large extent;
but since the news of the victory of the Prussians over the French,
wbicn, regarded as presaging an early peace, buyers have insisted
upon lower prices, and there is a decline on the week of 50c,@75c>
per bbl. In fact prices were yesterday nearly down to those ruling
before the declaration of war
At the reduced prices there is not
much improvement in the demand, but the firmness of holders
gives a steadier tone to the market. Shipping extras covers
pretty wide range owing to their valuable quality and uncertain
condition ; lines of common sold yesterday at $5 75, while $610
was refused for another line of prime.
At to-day’s market a good
deal sold yesterday at $5 75 was rejected, and very little really
sound could be had under $6 00. Southern flour is firm; new wheat
has arrived freely and largely declined.
Rye flour and corn meal
have been drooping.
Wheat has declined to about the current prices previous to the
declaration of war. Receipts, especially at Western ports, are
largely in excess of last year, and stocks are large. At this de¬
cline, there is more speculation—confidence in an early peace in
Europe being a good deal disturbed in the past day or two; there
has also been more export; inferior to good No. 2 spring sold at
$1 18@1 30, and No. L spring at $1 33@1 42. Bat the market
closed flat, with some of the leading holders anxious to realize with¬
out pressing too heavily upon the market.
Corn has arrived more freely, and there is a large quantity oo
the canal, and under these facts prices have rapidly declined. Yes¬
terday boat-loads of good mixed sold at 89©90c; to-day they
brought 91@92c. at the close. The receipts, however,
liberal, and there are no orders for export over 80c,
Rye is very unsettled. Barley and barley malt
Canada peas nominal. Oats have depressed by liberal receipts o
new in small lots, but the market closes firm at the decline.

exceptions the markets are void of any exciting or

to some extent, but this is complained of less than the continued
small attendance of buyers and the indifferent manner in which
they operate—a few unpretending invoices appearing to satisfy the
hitherto most liberal purchasers on interior account. The aggre¬

frequently leaving prices entirely nominal.
The natural inclination has been downward under the reduction in the gold
premium and the withdrawal of all classes of buyers, except in the way Of
small parcels required for actual and immediate necessities, and nothing like
free sales could have been at any time within ,Vc.@Xc. of the quoted rates.
On the other hand, holders having the stocks in a position where they could
easily be carried, and finding current arrivals comparatively small, have persist¬
ently resisted the depressing influences, and many withdrew their samples en¬
tirely rather than accept reduced rates. There have been a few sales to the
trade hut only where very choice goods were offered. Refiners, aside from the
nclination to hold off for lower prices, have had but little occasion to purchase
stock, as their production was gradually receding in value and selling very
slowly, particularly to sources of outlet upon which much dependence had
been placed. Most advices from the places of growth state that the amount of

corporation to the northern sections of the State.
This will add so largely to the business and profits of
that section of the road that the Company feel confi¬
