Another reason why our correspondent, as a thoughtful man, should not attempt to connect pur monetary

classes of property
and commodities a lower relative
ought to be. One of the most
flagrant wrongs of this depreciated currency is the unequal and
unjust relation of prices which it sustains. To-day some prices
are lower than they ought to be in specie, because trade in them
is broken up; while others are quite too high and ought to come
down. A specie or redeemable currency, being itself a measure
of value, is the great and true leveller, and it levels upward as
well as downward. When hard times come, as in a commercial
crisis, under a suspension of specie payments, and subject to
the working of a depreciated currency, whereby the value of the
products of labor is rendered so unstable and so uncertain, the
interest to suffer first and most is that of labor.
Capital protects

specie payments there may be crises
such have often occurred
from overproduction, undue speculation, or political disturbance.
But so long as values are protected by a sound currency they suffer
only during the temporary stringency, or quickly find adjustment
to the conditions required for marketing the goods produced.
Then labor suffers last and least, and capital finds its own interest
in the most constant and best employment of labor.
High wages
are not profitable to the laborer when that which raises his wages
also raises the cost of living still higher, and such is always the
value permanently.

partial failure of the cou^Am.
It may be doubted
it an unreasoning condemnation of the existing administration of
whether the quantity of \^|l^^wheat grown has been public affairs. It is hardly
possible to sum up the moral and
much reduced by the re^nt rains and floods, but the pecuniary loss from this enforced and unnecessary diminution of
quality and condition must have suffered much.
One profitable industry, without seeming to exaggerate it, except to
of the effects of the drought a year ago was to cause those minds which have given the subject careful study the loss

The
quantity of the yield
pretty well secured, but the quality is now exposed to
danger from prolonged rains. Indian corn is a plant
that requires warmth and moisture, and is much less
likely to have been injured by the recent rains than it
was by the drought of last Summer. The Ohio Valley
is a great corn-growing region, and injury to the crop
there is a serious matter in its relation to the yield of the
whole country; but the deficit caused by the drought
year was not a serious one; speculation based upon
was unremunerative; and there is little reason to
last
it
ent comfort and visible prosperity seem to deny the existence of
so great an evil.
Measured in dollars, the national loss alone is
all
times the amount of interest which the instant funding of
the Treasury notes would cast, and that interest, though now
nominally saved to the government, is really paid by the people
and principally by the wages-earning class of them.
• It was estimatea that in November, 1874, there were more than 250,000
wage laborers ont of emploTment of those who were steadily employed in
1873— before the panic—of whom 100,000 are ekUied laborers, mechanics,
miners, &c. If we call the average wages of the 250,000 about two dollars per
working day— $500,000 per day— the total would be $150,000,000 per year. We
may also assume that the product of this labor was worth Its cost. It is estimated further that the reduction of earnings by other classes of labor, factory
hands of all sorts, men, women and children, amounts to $60,000,000 more per
year—also by loss of employment, entire or in part. If correct, this sbo^s a
loss of production by the country of SOO million dollars yearly—a sufficient
explanation of the reduction of buying power by our people, whereby surplus
piles up and prices of manufactures fall. Yet all these unemployed laborer*
must subsist though they earn nothing. It is doubtful if the actual gain in
wealth per year by our whole country, in any period of ten years, has been
more than this sum of 200 millions. Yet we suffer this fearful loss and}>»
attendant suffering to eo on rather than pay the Interest on the 30O milliCK^

very satisfactory distribution, and shows that banking is
with large profits. It follows, therefore, that if large profits are
made, risks must be incurred, and perhaps the directors and
shareholders in the existing joint-stock banks are to be congratu-
have received large profits for several years past,
and that the losses sustained do not in the aggregate form a very
heavy total.
Business in the stock markets has been interrupted during
the week by the holidays, the Stock Exchange having been closed
on Monday, owing to the Bank Holiday, and to-day for repairs.
Besides which.numerous members of the house.and a considerable
section of the general public are leaving town for the sea-coastand CO great an amount of activity is anticipated until the middle
of September. The tone of business in the stock markets has been
rather dull. British railway shares have experienced a relapse
from the late high prices, and foreign stocks, and especially Peruvian, have been depressed. A statement is in circulation that
the guano existing in Peru is greatly over-estimated, and that
investors do not possess the security which they have been assured
is more than ample to cover the bonds.
This is, however, an old
story, and persons who are not ho'ders of the bonds are inclined
to accept the statement, more especially as the Peruvian Govern
ment is remarkably reticent on the subject. United States Government securities are scarcely so firm, and American railroad
bonds have been rather dull. The closing prices of Consols and
the principal American securities yesterday and on Saturday last,

Business in the wheat trade has been far from active, but as
there is reason to believe that the crop in this country, and in
Europe generally, in fact, will be below an averagfe, a firm tone
has prevailed and in some in.-itances ratlier higher prices have
been obtained. The crops are now approaching maturity. Tlie
weather has been dry during the past fortnight, but the night
temperature has been remarkably low for the time of year. The
average price of English wheat is now 51s., against 593. 8d. per
quarter last year.
The following figures sho^v the imports anci exports of cereal
produce into and from the United Kingdom since harvest, viz.,
from September 1 to the close of last week, compared with the
corresponding period in the three previous years

bonds have been lower
this week, particularly on the five-twenties of 1865.
This was
chiefly in consequence of the decline in London, where United
Slates bonds were lower, in common with other government
loans, includins; Euglish consols. Tti" sales of new five-tirenties
of 1865 were especially free by the foreign bankers here, as it
appears that in London they had obtained the idea that this
issue would be called in by Secretary Bristow before tlie 18653 old,
which were .'irst negotiated. We have seen an oflicial letter from'
Secretary Bristow, under date of .iuly 27, stating positively that
the United States five-tweuty bonds " will be called in for
redemption in the order of their issue," and as the " 1865a old "
were actually issue before the 18G53 new there seems no reason
to doubt that they will l)e first called.
As a matter of fact, however, the new issue, with interest payable Jinuary and July, are
dated July, 1865, while the old, with interest May and November,
are dated November, 1865. Both issues are under the same act,"
and we understand that after the May and November issue had
been sold the Treasury wished to change the interest period on
the balance of bonds to Januar.v and July, and in making this
change antedated them July, 1865, instead of making them

State and Railroad Bonda.— Iq Southern State bonds Virginhave been the strongest, and advanced sharply over last
week on a home demand. Tennessees are atill strong, and some
prominent parties are credited with being large purchaserc. Much
confidence is expressed in the Louisiana fa.nding bonds by some
parties from that State.
Railroad bonds have» only been moderately active in the
absence of a large number of investors and moneyed men at the
Summer resorts. Prices are well kept up and the best bonds, as a
rule, are most in demand.
The Northwest gold bonds declined to
87J but to-day sold up again to 88^.
Daily closing prices of a few leading bonds, and the range

Railroad and miscellaneons Stocks. The stock market
much the came general course as last week, being dull
has had
and spiritless in the first few days, and subsequently showing
more life and quite a firmness in prices. Western Union has sold
up to 84J, and closes at 84|, without any further developments.
The Chicago & Alton Railroad has declared a 4 per cent diviaend
payable in September. The strongest point in the market was in
the prominent Western Railroads, Northwest, St. Paul, and Rock
Island. The preferred stocks of the first two have been particularly conspicuous for their firmness, and the St. Paul preferred
under free purchases has advanced nearly 5 per cent Norihwest
preferred "i per cent. Rock Island sold yesterday at 109|, and
closes to-day at 108^. There is evidently more confidence in these
Western stocks, based probably on the exhibit of their last annual
reports and on the expectation of a good traffic this Fall. Lake
Shore has been strong in spite of the rumors of a large decrease
in (earnings, and the best price to-day waa 61^.
The general
tone of the market is strong, though prices at the close were a
fraction oS^ from the best of the day.
For the purpose of showing the total transactions of the week
in the leading stocks, we havfi ftoiic^pUed the table following

Exchange was weak prior to Wednesday s steamers, and quotations were reduced to 4 86+ and
4 89 for
prime long and short sterling, respectively. On Thursday

Erie Railway. On petition of Hugh J. Jewett, receiver. Judge
Westbrook, in Supreme Court, Chambers, made an order permitting the execution of a contract whereby the interests ol the Erie
railway company in Pennsylvania coal lands shall be consolidated
with those of the Shawmut company. In the petition the receiver
sets out that in 1873 and 1873 the Erie railway company became
possessed of all the capital stock ofa Pennsylvania coal Co., known
as the Northwestern Mining & Exchange Co., which cost the Erie
company $879,361 70. For them Erie was to pay in all $1,094,038 90, and has actually paid $543,697 93, leaving a deficit of
$550,303 97, all of which, except $6,350, is to be paid in instalments, before July 19, 1876, under penalty of a forfeiture of the
money already paid. The consolidation is permitted under the
provisions of a contract whereby it is provided (1.) That a mortgage is to be executed on the property so united to secure bonds
to be issued to the amount of $4,000,000 the transfer by Mr.
Jewett to the consolidated company ot the Erie interest, the entire
stock ot the Northwestern Mining & Exchange company, to wit:
J5,000 shares, in exchange for $1,366,667 of the said mortgage
bonds at par, sul>ject to the payment of the balance due on the
purchase of tlie lands of tlie Northwestern company, amounting
:
;
to $544,030 96; the said Shawmut company to receive a certain
Dumber of the said mortgage bonds in payment for its interest in
the mortgaged premises. (3.) The consolidation of the Buffalo
Bradford & Pittsburg railroad company, the Pittsburg Buftalo &
Rochester railroad company, and the Brandy Camp railroad company, (all of which laciiitate the working of the lands,) with a
capital stock of such consolidated company amounting to $4,000,-

of the stock is to be delivered to the Erie railway company, or the

(3.)
William D, Shipman ia appointed trustee to dispose ot this
$4,000,000 of bonds. (4.) Tlie name to be assumed by this new
consolidated company is the Pennsylvania & Erie Coal & Railway
company. (5.) The proceeds of the bonds,or so much as necessary,
is to be used to construct a line of railroad to furnish an outlet to
market for the coal, in connection with the roads already named.
By this agreement, Mr. Jewett claims, great advantages will be
secured to Erie, including an abundant hupply of coal for the use
of the railway at reasonable rates, and that he will thereby make
the best disposition of thi^stock which Erie at present holds in coal
lands, and best serve the interests of the company's stockholders.
On the petition and the consent of all parties who have appeared
in the suit in which Mr. Jewett was appointed receiver, Judge
Westbrook made an order authorizing him to enter into the
agreements as prayed for.
Mr. Jewett, receiver, haa filed his accounts from the date of
his appointment. May 37, to June 30. He reports that he received
aa cash on coming into poasesslon of the company's proporty
$143,633 86, and that at the end of the five weeks he had |433,403 09 of that kind of items on baud, the total receipts being,
including loans, $3,193,008, and expenditures $3 759,605 91. The
net amount of loans in the same period was $470,000.

supplies of the raw material, while the stocks In this and other
primary markets have become much reduced. On Wednesday
quotations were revised.
Ordinary and Low Middling, and
grades above, of the old clasaification, and Ordinary and Middling,
and grades above, of the new classification, were advanced ^o.
To-day there was a good demand for export at firm prices. For
future delivery, quotations have latterly been tending downward, pursuing a course just the opposite of spots, and the
business in futures has been below the average.
Crop accounts
as interpreted on the street have been a good deal mixed. The
weather reports to the New York Cotton Exchange indicated too
much rain ou Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, but it subsided on
Wednesday, and the general impression on 'Change was that it
had not done much injury. Memphis reported on Wednesday
that the Mississippi River was falling at that point, and all danger
of a serious flood was regarded as past. Today prices were again
l-33@l-16c. lower, with a limited business.
After 'Change,
there were sales at 14c. for August, 13 9-16c. for October, and
13 23-32c. for January, showing that the decline in regular
hours was mostly recovered. The total sales for forward delivery
for the week are 94,500 bales, including
free on board
For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this week 9,095
bales, including 413 for export, 8,544 for consumption, 138
for speculation and
in transit.
Of the above,
