Another observation on this table is that it does not allow quite enough for the increased gold product of the early period of California mining.

In this way the custom has consideration we have been thought to have been overestablished itself, and whereas in 1858 there were only three earnest in the pressure we have brought to bear upon the banks which absolutely refused to stop paying interest on banks, and it has been suggested that of their owd accord they would accumulate reserves very rapidly in August.

In vain would the banks attempt to throw the blame off their own shoulder. The facts stand on record against them, and it will be shewn how with their green- back recerves at a lower point than has been struck for years, banks reversed the discarded the all sound precautionary rules, warnings of experience, and continued to deposits, at present there are about one half of our banks facts Mr. Hulburd which pay interest on deposits. To these refers in his last Allusion has been report as follows made in : 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 those ready to accept its custody, assume all the risks, and pay interest for the use of it, for a margin of profit ranging from one It is not always the strongest or wealthiest to three per cent. 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 remain unemploved, so that they may be in reality what they are ; expand after they no part of were already too much expanded. It is our present purpose to denre!-s or to raise the credit of any particular banks. fully Accordingly we have carefrom specifying the delinquents by name. coming, however, when the public will be quick refrained The time is to compare the published statements as they stand on and the banks may some of them find that their rivalry for business and appetency for larger profits have record, defeated their own purpos", and that banks which burden ; THE (CHRONICLE 2^ nnmo, relief should lie afforded in Borae other way.

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 possible we do monopolies. pr.ifitable As to the propriety of this not think thore can bo two opinions. might be mentioned Many instances have been brought to bear to secure amendments lo the laws for no other reason than that some patentee desired to make a sale for his wares, and the steamboatmen have been compelled to supply themselves with many costly and practically useless articles, when better and cheai)er ones could have been [irocured without difliculty. in wliieh influences nn.o.w 707,WI2 77.075 282.7-W 91,312 110.81.0 mI 23.885 1S.572 17it.i501 481.113 73.225 7,23B ino.379 222,082 i84,im 38,0-.'l 2t)5.40t> 278.172 n U'.lfir<{) 488.840 130.143 181,240 1 l:0,M7 1 II8.01B 201,084 00,072 $7,830,015 new it report reHnors of petroleum, looking to does, were it not for the lact that tht $aj:VJ«6 is still fresli in the fate of memory the South of all who by the refiners.

Pittsburjfh and Cleveland are each to receive twenty-five and onequarter-oue-hundredths of the crude oil.

It is confidently reported that an 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. ; a supplemental order, giving Secretar)' Uichardson has is.iued more detailed instructions By the new casss. as to the practice to bo pursued in such regulations it is provided that when materials mentioned in section 10 of the new law are withdrawn to be ultimately used for the purposes authorized, they may be manufactured before being so applied, ])rovided such manufacture bo carried on within the limits of the district in which the withdrawal entry was made but the person making such withdrawal must, at the time, file an affidavit with the Collector of Custo.-DB that such merchandise is to be manufactured into such forms as may be described, and stating the specific uses to which it is to be ultimately applied. In all such cases the duties are to be paid at the time such withdrawal is made, but they will bo refunded when the ships into which they enter are fully completed upon the presentation of sworn and properly attested proofs, and giving . ; bonds to refund double the amount of the duties reclaimed, provided such vessels are ever enlisted for the coasting trade for more than two months in the year. In making these regulations the heads of the Treasury Department have, doubtless, been actuated solely by a desire to prevent any frauds which, under less stringent regulations, might be perpetrated under the new but is it not possible that sufficient security could be se. cured by the Government under a much more liberal system, are fully aware of the difficulties attending the practice of allowing goods to bo withdrawn from bond without paying duty law ; Wb Lake Navigation. From all accounts which reach us, we conclude that the present season marks tlie beginning of a considerable improvement in the trade of the great lakes. Many on them, and the abuses such a system would be subject to. And yet we ought to be able to allow the withdrawal of the goods in question without snch payment, provided bonds for a sufficient amount be given to be cancelled only upon the production of the r.iquired proofs that such goods had been used for the purposes authorized by law.

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.

Although yarns and cloths are being freely ottered at a reduction on Tuesday's rates, buyers' operations are confined wiihin the lowest limits. large stock of cotton in laverpool.and encouraging prospects shaken confidence generally, and the market will yet be lower.

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. — EnsIIsb Market Reports— Per Cable. closing quotations in tho markets of London and Liver pool for the past week have been reported by submarine telegraph as shown in the following summarv rOKElON IMl'OKTS AT NEW YOKK iroB TUJC WEEK. 1869.

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 gages paying a high rate of interest. —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. first ; 12,204,665 106.001,620 108,741.260 110,187,700 1.5,659,000 1.5,659,000 374,324,650 .375 10,464,899 l.'',716,40O 15,659.000 374,5813,4.50 . 6.022,725 fAugtst 124.084,191 128,131,303 129,617,930 8,114,273 9,102,961 7,.592,683 German American Bank of this city, as will be seen by their card in another column, issues bills of exchange and travelThis bank has lately ers credits available in all parts of Europe. increased its capital to |2,00O,0OO, in order to provide for its-, rapidly growing business. —The 30,290.000 28,178.000 27,108,500 26,834.000 9,105,433 25 272,500 103.318,656 100,618.340 97.157,152 13,602,100 12,019.942 25.425.300 2.5.578.0(10 6,644,.370 25,510,700 87.339.756 88,779.932 85,889,165 S.557.722 5,429,727 8,077,851 25.083.500 94,729 000 24,878,000 July 6.. .380.420.200 1.5.809.000 .396.229.200 July 13.. 381.108,000 15,859,000 3!Ki,967,900 9,784,610 July 20. 381,374,750 15,859.000 397 233.7.50 71.31)4,841 July 27. .381.934.200 1.5,7.59,000 397,893.200 69,919,613 11,491,353 38J.8:M.2i10 1.5.759.000 393.593 200 Aug. 3 Aug. 10. 362.875,200 15,767,000 378,842,200 72,082,407 10,338,222 39,279,300 81,866,800 May 4 Mayll May 18..

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.

LATEST INTBLI.IOENCB OF STATE, RAILROAD FINANCES. AND OITlf 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 ; ; 1st, $3,000,000 ; 3d, $4,000,000 8d, $4,441 ,000 5th, $936,500— this makes a total of less than $18,500,000 of debt, having priorityof lien to the new consoli- gages is respectively as follows $6.000,000 ; 4tli, : ; ; 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 — — — quoted 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.

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.

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.

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 middling) 30ic. for August, 20ic. for September, 19ic. for October, ISfc. for November, 19|c. for December, and 184c. prices, : January.

There has been a pretty steady jobbing trade in all descriptions of (jroceries, and stocks in second hands have been replenished to some extent by purchases from importers, but the business has not shown the improvement that is expected each week as the season advances.

Boxes have sold moderately at prices covered by the previous range. In grocery grades the business has not been very spiiited, but enough has been done to sustain prices, and we quote as before. Refined sug.irs have moved in a limited way, and the tendency of prices has been steadily in buyers' favor.

'71 shipmi nts into direct consumption arc on an extensive scale, and it has been necessary to draw on importers to some extent for invoices to meet the outlet With new teas coming iu in considerable amonnts, the supply is becoming very liberal, and holders are disposed to make prices a shade easier, aItliou.:It the rates ruling since the lirst of Jnly have not been high enou;;h to pay importers any profit.

Jsevertheless the market is dull and with stocks accuniulating, there can he very little firmness in prices until trade shows a more general activity. Greens show relatively more firmness than Black-, but arc olleriug more freely now and are a shade soltcr.

I 25 02 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.
