former reports to the custom of

paying interest on deposits by national banks. The practice
existed long before any national banks had an existence, and they
only continue to do what tbeir predecessors did before them, and
wbut bankers everywhere consider themselves compelled to do.
The use of other people's money in the shape of deposits, witliout
interest, or at a low rate of interest, has come to be considerec a
cardinal necessity of modern banking. There will al\iay8 be

bank or banker that is willing to pay the highest rate for this use
of other people's money. Ordinarily, judging of banks as of
individuals, the one most in need of money offers the greatest
inducement to depositors. In theory the custom is dangernns;
in practice it is not always safe but, nevertheless, it is so thoroughly entrenched in its position by long observance, that any
sweeping enactment prohibiting the payment of interest on
deposits by national banks would be evaded in some way, or the
banks would lose their deposits. There are scores of banks and
bankers, not subject to Congress, who would rejoice over such a
prohibition as over the discomfiture of an enemy yet there is
one point that should bo guarded. The reserves of the whole
country are held to a large extent in Boston, Ntw York, Philadelphia, and other large cities. These reserves should be protected. They should be placed under such restrictions as would
obviate all necessity for their use by the depository bank. If the
institutions owning these reserves cannot afford to allow them to

tlie

objections to the present code of laws,

the records of the causes of these disasters are to l>e used in the
discussion of such amendments to the law as are thought to be
necessary. The chief grounds of complaint on the part of the
steamboat owners are found in the arbitrary requirements of the
variousacts that only certain patented and costly inventions shall
be used, which they allege are no better in any respect than others

which can bo procured for very much less cost. No competition is
among manufacturers so long as they are allowed to nse
only the patented articles. Such a law simply gives (at the
expense of steamboat builders) an opportunity for the favored
oaea to make enormous profits, of which, in most instances, they
liave availed themselves without scruple. The steamboat men
insist that it is to tlicir interest to make all possible and neces
sary provision for the safety of their boats and of the lives of
those who take passage upon them, and while they do not object
therefore to the most rigid and impartial investigation, they
claim the right to purchase whatever they need in the open
market, without paying interest to those whose patents secure

agreement has been drawn up and signed by the refiners-and carriers, and that only the refusal of some of the principal refiners
here to become parlies to the combination has prevented the conflummation of the scheme
but while it is probable that steps
have been taken in this direction wo do not believe that any com.
plete organization has yet been effected. To counteract the effects of this movement, however, a combination among the producers is proposed, which will provide for the sale of oil only to
parties outside the refiners' " ring," or, in case of any difficulty
in securing transportation upon favorable terms, for the holding
of oil beyond the limited amount which must be marketed to
cover current expenses, until the monopoly is broken up. Other
plans are proposed, any one of which would, if it can be carried
out, prove largely injurious, if not fatal, to the interests of the re.
finers' " ring," and as the producers are not without tlie means of
protecting themselves incase of necessity, it is doubtful if the combination will he able to accomplish any important results. The fact
ol the matter is the refiners in different parts of the country have
a capacity about twice as great as is called for by the present and
prospective requirements of the trade. Refineries have also been
established in mostofthecountries to which we send petroleum in
any considerable quantity, and the export trade therefore is now
principally in the crude oil. Hence our refiners are compelled to
depend chiefly upon the requirements of the home market for
business, and as there is not enough of this to keep these establishments busy, they are seeking to secure the proposed control
over crude oil.

Harvest work is now becoming general in the south of England,
but the weather is somewhat unsettled, though not sufficiently
so to check the work of reaping. There is still, however, greater
reason to believe that in the midland and northern counties and
in Scotland the harvest will be very late.

The

trade for wheat

during the week has been exceedingly quiet, but the holders of
produce, more especially of good and fine qualities, are unwilling
to sell at lower prices.
The French crop is reported to be excel,
lent, and if so France may export largely to us, as her financial
state will necessitate her selling as much of her produce in foreign
countries as she can conveniently spare. Indeed, it is not im
probable that her export during the early part of the season may
exceed her capacity, and may result in her being an importer
during the close of the season.
The following statement shows the imports and exports of
grain and flour into and from the United Kingdom since harvest
viz., from Aug. 26 to the close of last week, compared with the
corresponding period in the three previous seasons

serious difference to the cost of their working, wliilo freights are low- The
chemical trade is brisk, and thefo is an advance in the price of alkali and
bleaching powder, the latter recovering its former price and being more in
demand. The Esparto grass trade is still quiet and prices as beflire. The
geneial trade of the district is not so active as it was, and a failure or two has
rather shaken public conlidencc.
South Wale.s Iron. There are no special features in connection with the
Iron %nd tin plate trades to report this week. In the coal trade the relations
between the masters and the colliers have again assumed a very serious
aspect. The men demanded an increase of 4(1 per ton for cutting bouse coal,
but the masters decline making the concession, otieriu^ as a compromise to
give an advance to 10 per cent on the 1 si September. This the men refused,
and on Thursday nearly the whole of the house coal coliiers in the Uhondda
and Merthyr valleys turned out on strike. With regard to the iron trade the
American demand is rejiorted as satisfactory as to prices. There is some difficulty iu ascertaining actual quotations, but it may be safely said that tlie tendency is stitl upward, and must continue so as long as fuel and raw material
continues to rise in value. The scarcity of skilled labor is still felt in the
district, but in the supply of iron ores there is some improvement.
'The tin
plate trade continues prosperous, there being more difU<:nlty in executing
orders than in securing them.

Messrs. Gibr,on, Cazanova & Co., Bankers, No. 50 Exchange
Place, offer the first mortgage seven percent ^old boniia of the
Jacksonville, Northwestern and Southeastern Kailway Company,
of Illinois. This road, when finished, will be 12.5 miles in length,
extending from Jacksonville to Mount Vernon, Illinois, thirty
miles of it being already completed. At Mount Vernon it will
connect with the St. Louis and Sotitheasteru Kailway, thus forming a line for Shawneetown, HI., and Kvansville, Ind., both on
the Ohio river. 'J'he road connects directly for purposes of freight
and traffic with the principal local lines in Illinois, and intersects
the great seaboard trunk lines. So that, while forming a part of
a through route to the seaboard, it lias access to the business of
the important local lines. The amount of bonds issued on the
road will be only $20,000 per mile, and Messrs. Gibson, Cazanova,
& Co., the financial agents, recommend them confidently, after
making a personal examination of the affairs and substantial prospects of the enterprise. The prict is 90 and accrued interest.
Further details will be found in the advertisement on another
page.

—Messrs.

Smith & Hannaman, of Indianapolis, Indiana, who
snecialty of dealings in County Bonds, School Bonds, City
Bonds, and boncis and mortgages of individuals or corporations, in
that State, publish an interesting little pamphlet in regard to the
advantages of these several investments, which they will furnish
on application. It is a well known fact that rates of interest in
the Western States are high, ranging often from 8 to 10 per cent,
on securities or real estate mortgages, that are really first class.
Our readers having money to invest, may find it of advantage to
correspond with Messrs. Smith & Hannaman, and ascertain the
advantages which they can offer in the way of securities or mort-

make a

—Messrs. John J. Cisco & Son, are offering at 90 and interest, the
mortgage bonds of the Houston and Texas Central Kailroad. These bonds are issued at the rate of $20,000 per mile of
finished road, and cover 10,000 acres of land per mile. They
bear. 7 per cent, gold interest and considering the already successful business on the completed portion of the road, and the
high character of the financial agents, the bonds are such as to
attract much attention from investors.

State and Railroad Bonds^— Transactions in Southern State
bonds have been quite limited, and the range of prices on leading
bonds has been as noted below.
Railroad bonds are in fair request, including the better class of
Southern railroad bonds which pay their interest regularly, as

many of these securities are really first-class, and their prices
have been depressed in the past by the unsettled condition of
financial affairs at the South. Among the leading bonds dealt in
at the Board Central Pacifies are 102@102i, and TTnion Pacific 1st
mortgages 89i@89i, incomes 864, five per cent, interest being due
on these Sept. 1, and land grants 80|. The conijjany sold 31,389
acres of land in July for $133,897, and the total sales to Aug. 1
1873 amounted to 003,559 acres for $3,.533,307. Bonds already
cancelled and in hands of the Trustees amount to $1,336,000.

the requisite qualifications of a good investment. Prominent
among these are the six per cent bonds of tlie Cliesapeake & Ohio
Railroad Company the interest and principal of which are payable in New York City, in gold coin. They are issued in denominations of flOO, $500 and |1,000, either coupon or registered.
The price at present is 94 and accrued interest. As this road is
now nearly completed and will soon become one of the great
trunk roads from the Atlantic tide waters to the heart of the great
West, and opening a low grade and direct line with Cincinnati,
Dayton, Louisville, St. Louis and other great cities, we think the
price very low. The amount remaining unsold is small.
would also recommend the Central Pacific six per cent gold
bonds, and also the
estern Pacific.
These bonds are now so well known the roads having been
compleied some time and earning at the rate of iweiw mti^/ions
per annum it is needless for us to enter into details.
also conduct a regular banking business iu all its branches,
and receive deposits, on which wb allot* interest at the rste of
<o«r jMir cent per wnuw.

INVESTMENTS— OLD RAILROAD BONDS.

We noticed last

week the various new

railroad bonds oftered in

our market, with a tabular statement showing the details o' each,
and a glance at the present prices of the older railroad bonds may
not be without interest. In N. Y. Central and Hudson bonds
tliere are few transactions, the amount of bonds outstanding is
not large and the prices are high. Of the Bonds on comparatively
new roads, Central Pacific gold sixes are about the highest selling
at 102^102i, ex-interest which was paid last month. Erie Railway
Ist and 2nd mortgages are above par, the 3d mortgage sells at par,
but this includes 3 per cent, of accrued interest, making the bonds
97 the 4th mortgage ia OoJ or about 93 ex-interest the 5th mortgage is 94 or about 92^ ex-interest. The amount of these mort

da ted mortgage, and it would certainly seem that the Erie property, under any contingen:y, should be worth more than this
amount. The Michigan Central new 7 per cent, consolidated
bonds (a mortgage for $10,000,000) are quoted at 104 " asked,"
but no recent sales made. The 7 per cent, bonds of the Lake
Shore and Michigan Southern system of roads are generally selling at or above par the lowest prices being made on the Cleveland P. and Ashtabula old and new bonds, the latter are quoted
about 97 which includes 3J per cent, accrued interest this section of road is 96 miles long and has a mortgage debt of $8,500,000.
In the Toledo Wabash and Western Railroad system we find
that prices are not quite as high, and all the bonds can be bought
below par the lowest prices on this list are on the eqiiipnunt
bonds, which are quoted at 89 asked, or about 87 exinten;st, the
whole issue is $600,000. The Great Western second mortgages, are

89((f90 including

about 3 per cent, of accrued interest, the

whole issue being $3,500,000, subject 1o the first mortgage for
the same amount, both on 180 miles of road. The S'. Louis liivision bonds sell at 90^ and are just ex-interest this issue is $3,700,000 on 109 miles of road, generally known as the Decatur and
East St. Louis Railroad. The last annual report of the Toledo
Wabasli and Western Railroad for the year 1871, showed net
earnings of $1,9.j9,837 above operating expenses, with an interest
charge and other expenses amounting to $1858 451. The gross
earnings of the road for the fir.st six months of 1873 show an increase of $329,794 over the same period in 1871.
Our limited space allows us to notice, to-day, only the bonds
above referred to, which are prominent among the old rail.
road bonds sold at the Board, though not more prominent than
many others which we may have occasion to notice hereafter.

Controller General Neagle. of this State, publishes a letter to
Gov. Scott, setting forth the fact that the Legislature, ai its last
session, ordered to be levied and collected a tax sufficient to pay
No action having been
the interest of the entire public debt
taken in this matter, the controller demands that the Governor
require the State Auditor to assess and collect the said tax forthwith. The State authorities, it is said, intend to collect this tax,
amounting to over one million dollars, by tne 15th of September
next.
York, dated August
In a letter to Henry Clews & Co., of
6th, Gov. Scott says that the interest on the State debt was not
paid because the excessive legislative expenses absorbed all the
money in the treasury, and unless a special tax is levied and collected immediately, as urged, no interest can be paid before January, when tlie regular tax now levying will be received.
Gov. Scott concurs in the justice of the complaint made against
the fee for registration of State bonds charged by the Commercial
Warehoiise Company, but says the object of the registration is to
satisfy the bondholders that there are no fraudulent bonds, and
that the debt is truly less than $16,000,000.
Governor Scott declares that all money received from the hypothecation sale of bonds, except $700,000, has been uped in meeting
liabilities accruing before 1869, and he declares that this is the
most economically managed government in the nation. In conclusion he says that in the future a tax will be levied to pay the
interent on the debt, and the money so collected will be applied
to that purpose alone.

New

Georgia.— In the Georgia

Senate, on the 6th, the bill to repeal
provisions of railroad cliarters granting State aid except
where vested rights accrued was taken up. The committee reported against the passage of the bill. After debate the committee was sustained, and the bill rejected by a vote of 37 to 6.
all

Pennsylvania State Bonds.- Tl.e commissioners of the
sinking fund of the commonwealth of Pennsylvania, through the
agency of the Farmers and Mechanics' Bank of Philadelphia,
gives notice to holders of the 5 per cent loan of June 11, 1840,
reimbur.sable after July 11, 1870, that the interest on the entire
amount of said loan will cease on the 30ih day of October, 1873,
and that said loan, with accrued interest, will be paid on presentation at the Bank in Philadelphia.

Broolclyn Bonds— Issue of Citv Bonds in 1873. From a
statement furnished by Comptroller Schroeder, it appears that
during the first six ir.onths of 1873, city bonds to the par value of
$3,000,139 have bo n issued, on which have been received premiums aggregating .f 19,700 18. Of the principal $1,103,000 was
in assessment fund btimls which replace bonds already outstanding.

Ohioa^fo &: North tvestern vs. Illinois Central— Decision.—
In the Circuit Court in Chicago, Chiei Justice Williams has given
a decision in the case of the Chicago and Northwestern Railway
Company ngainst the Illinois Central Railroad Company, in which
suit the C. & N. W. had obtained an injunction against the I. C. to
prevent them from diverting traffic, etc. The substance of the
decision is published by the liiiilway Eevieir, as follows
The Galena & Chicago Union Railroad Company was chartered
At the commencement of 1851 it had bui t 40 miles west
in 1836.
from Chicago to Elgin, and had surveyed and located its road
from Elgin west to Galena and Dunleith. In February, 1851, the
Illinois Central Railroad was incorporated, and by the eleventh
section of the act it was authorized to connect with any road then
being constructed with the consent of the company building it,
both roads to afford each other facilities for transhipment of
freight and passengers, and interchange of cars upon fair and
equitable terms, and in case of disagreement submit to arbitrators,
whose decision was to be final. In October, 1853, a written agreement was entered into between the Mineral Point R. Co. and the
Illinois Cential and t:. & G. U. R. Co., to continue twenty years,
for increasing the business of the Illinois Central from Warren
to Freeport, and of the G. & C. U. R. between Freeport and Chicago and in December following a written agreement was also
entered into between the G. & C. U. R. Co. and the Illinois Central
regulating mutual and joint operation. In March, 1855. another
running arrangement was made for the lines east and west of
Freeport, under which the roads have run in connection for several years.
short time after, a considerable sum of money was
expeiuled by the G. & C. U. R. Co. in making connection willi the
Illinois ('eitral at Freeport, so that the roads could be operated
as one line from Chicago to Dunleith, according to the terms of
the aforesaid agreement, $10 000 having been paid by the Galena
Co. to the I. C. Co. on costs of connection and depot grounds at
Freeport, u.sed by the I. (J. for the same purpose. In 1864 the G.
& C. LT. R. Co. was consolidated with the Chicago & Northweetern
R. Co. Difficulties arose between the latter and the I. C. in reference to running arrangement, and discussions were had, each
charging the other with failure to carry out their agreement,
until in th« year 1869 the I. C. ceased connection with the freight
trains of the C. & N. W. between Freeport and Cliicago. The
road continued, however, to be run as one line from Chicago to
Dunleith for passenger business up to the time of filing the
present bill. The defendant having given complainant notice
that it would cease to receive complainant's cars to be transported
on its road, an would not, after 6th May, 1873, run in connection
with the C. & N. W. as a through passen er line, but would run in
connection with other roads via Forreston as the through line
from Chicago to Dunh ith, the C. & N. W. Co. filed its bill to prevent such diversion of the passenger business. The decision of
the Court was in substance as follows
"The eleventh section of the act bound the I. C. to adord to the G, & O. LT.
(clUtles for the trunshlpmeat of freight and passonqere and Incerchange of
Win, itnd in ciitr of (tiMRrscmtnt to i<nDmll to arbltrittiou, W)uit«Y«r bvfpnO

National Kallroad-New York to Philadelplila.-The

Jersey City Timefi speaks as follows of this projected road, the
authorization of which was completed by the passage through the
last New Jersey Lejiislature of the Stanhope Kailroad charter:
Workmen are strung along the entire distance from Bound
Brook, where it is to intersect the New Jersey Central, to the
Delaware river, and thence on the Pennsylvania side to ihe city,
soon to be bound to us by another link of brotherly love. The
contractors, A. Driesback & Co., of New Jersey, and McGrann &
are
Co., of Pennsylvania, wealthy and experienced contractors,
pressing on vigorously. Fifty sub-contractors have taken sections
of the work, and all are liable to a heavy penalty if the work be
not completed between Bound Brook and Philadelphia in one

year from this time.
The company has purchased the fine building No. 90 Liberty
street. New York, and it is rapidly being fitted up for the company's ofiiees for the New York terminus.
It is well understood that the National Railroad Company is an
adjunct of the Baltimore and Ohio, with its connections, penetrat
in" by a diversity ot interests to the Pacific slope. By a short line
of^railroad from'Yardloyville to the Philadelphia and Reading it
will control the vast coal trade and the traffic of that large corporation. It ranks among its stockholders some of ihe best and
most influential capitalists of the country.
Atlantic and CJnlf Railroad Company,— The Macon 7'dcijrnph has been furnished witii a report of the Georgia State Commissioners ttopointed to represent the million dollars of stock held
by the State in the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad Company. The
Committee make a strong argument in favor of carrying out the
original design of this r.ad.and placing it in connection with the
Gulf at Pensacola, Mobile and New Orleans, which can now be
done by the construction of 165 miles of railroad from Bainbridge
to Pollard, in Alabama, where it will connect with finished lines
of railway to all these places.
They say such is the poverty of the soil which this road
traverses, that its local traffic can never return the investment.
The whole taxable property of the region— leaving out Chatham
and Dougherty counties does not exceed fifteen millions, and the
whole amouni of cotton derived from 150 miles of the distance, in
1871, was only 3,3,'i(i bales. They say it the gap between Bainbridge and Pollard was filled up, they would have connection
between Savannah ami Mobile in a distance of 470 miles, and to
New Orleans in 010 miles while the distance via Macon and
Montgomery would be 705 miles. The 1,'ommiBsioners do not propose any spscific measure to the Legislature.
Several of the following items are from the Railroad Gazette :
EvansvlIIe, Henderson & NaBlivllle. This company is
at last entirely in the control of the St. Louis & Southeastern,
by the purchase by Messrs. Winslow and Wilson (President and
Vice-President of the latter company) of a majority of its shares.
The St. Louis & Southeastern by this purchase secures it complete line from St. Louis to Nashville shorter than auy other,
Winslow and Wilson having previously purchased outright the
Edgefield & Kentucky Railroad the Tennessee section of tue

Road it is intended to consolidate the companies and issue a
new mortgage, thorouglily equip the southern section, and complete the lino from Sliawneetown to Madisonville, which will
considerably decrease the distance from St. Louis to Nashville
and give very easy grades. The distance from Henderson to
Nashville is 148 miles, and from St. Louis to Nashville by way
of Evansville ;j30 miles.

10th inst., a bill in equity was filed in the Circuit Court of the
United States for this district, by Mr. MunRon, against the Assignees of the Boston, Hartford and Erie Railroad Company, and

Munson and Dillon, amounting to about two millions of dollars,
will have to be paid in full.

Vrom the foregoiii{r statement it will be seen that, compared
with the corresponding week of last season, there is a decrease in
theexports this week of 9,9.j9 bales, while the stocks to-night are
47,133 bales less than they were at this time a year ago. The
following is our usual table showing the movement of cotton at
all the ports from Sept. 1 to Aug. 9, the latest mail dates.

do not include our telegams to-night, as we cannot insure the

week has probably shown

as little

whether for immediate or future
delivery, as could be well imagined. Some weakness on Tuesday
morning and a flurry on Wednesday, which caused a partial and
temporary advance of Jc in futures, are all that have occurred to
disturb the prevailing monotony. Holders continue disposed to
let their stock go, in view of the early maturing of the first plantings of the new crop, and the sales therefore for export and consumption have been quite free for this period of the season. Re,
ports with regard to the growing crop have been conflicting and
have had little influence on the market. To-day the feeling was
quiet and the close dull and depressed, but without quotable
decline.
The prices for futures last reported were (basis low

The movement in raw sugars since our last report has not been very anl.
mated. Refiners were pretty well supplied by their earlier purchases, and In
the absence of pressing wants have been deterred from active operations this
week by the firmness of holders. The outlet has been somewhat in excess of
tbe receipts, so tliat the stock at lb- clo.so of the week shows a moderate
reduction, and is not so large as to he beyond the control of holders. The
offerings of refining grades from both wharf and store have been on a basis of
8X(iJ8,'ic for fair to good, and 9c for prime. The extreme rate? have been

coffee Messrs. Kern, Ilayn

<fc

Co.'s Brazil

says

"Regarding the proceeds of the 1872-73 crop the estimates are, as usually nt
this time of the year, very divergent.
" Up to the bee:innin,ar of April the estimates varied between 2,000,000 and
since Ihen. however, as stated in our report of April 22, heavy
.3,500,000 hags
rain has cansed great damage to the crop, In consequence of which the
estimates arc now considerably lower, but they still differ pretty much, some
calculating on a crop of 3 millions of bags, while others expect it as low as
1,800.000 bags.
"
have over and over again explained how difflcult it'ls to form an exact
opinion of the extent of the Brazil coffee crop, and especially at so early a
period of the season it isqnite impossible to name a correct figure.
"According t() the carefullest sought informations, derived from sources
which have hi, herto enabled us to form an at least approximately correct
opinion of the extent of the crop, we believe to be pretty correct in stating,
that the 1S72-73 crop will not reach 2,.')00,000 hags." In onr opinion the crop is from 2,200,000 to 2,.300,000 bags large, but even
supposing it to be larger, say even as much as thrcs millions of hag^, experience has more than once shown, that for want of laborers and means of
transport onr province cannot make ready for shipment more than about 2>i
millions batrs of coffee in the course of twelve months.
" What has arrived so far of new coffee consists, almsst exclusively, of
gerra abaixo coffee of rather poor quality, while of serra acima coffee only
some few samples have come to the mirket, Tvhlch cannot be taken as guide
for the quality uf the crop.
'• The receipts have during
the latter part of Jnneaveraged about 4,000 bags
per day, we cannot however expect a heavy increase in arrivals during the
month of July, as the crop of si'rra ahaixo coffee is but small and the new
serra acima coffee not yet ready for shipment, bnt we must be prepared to see
free receipt in August and September.
'
entcrthij season with about 2t00.i rs. per arroba higher prices than
thelast one, but if these high prices arc to coutinuo or not will principally
depend on the course of the consuming markets.'^
