This novel proposition seems to have startled Mr. Treasurer Spinner, and he replies in a long let ter, which has found its way into the newspapers, and has naturally elicited some comment.

Should these banks by the payment either fail, their notes must be redeemed at the Treasury at once, and of national bank-notes or of that, too, greenbacks to the requisite rehether the securities pledged for the purpose are sufficient or not. This amount. This easy and lawful treatment of the demand being the case, it wi/l be seen that the circulating notes of every national bank that may fail, in consequence of premature resumption, or from Mr. legards as a “miserable and in an any other cause, must be added to the outstanding matured liabilities of abstract point of view it the States.

First, that there should be a large coin reserve, as if this reserve would be of any use except to be sold for currency just as bonds could be sold for currency. The second condition proposed is that the banks shall receive 4 Is it not He The same will be true of the western If his wheat farmer. for export (and what¬ it is worth for that purpose will determine its price), and the gold premium is 100, he will get $3 00 per bushel for his wheat in currency; while if the premium is but 50 per cent he will receive but $2 25. The farmer, then, will desire that the premium should be very high—because the higher it is the richer he is in greenbacks, unless the expenses of production correspondingly increase. The position of the wool grower is unlike that of the pro¬ is worth $1 50 in gold at New York ever grain. As there is no surplus of wool that must necessarily be exported, the currency price of it will not be directly raised by the advance of gold premium, as in the case of cotton and breadstuff’s, but so far as wool is ducers of cotton or the bonds they deposit as security With these safeguards protected by the tariff, the protection will increase as the Mr.’Spinner w ould permit the issue of bank notes, the green¬ premium on gold rises.

If with 300 millions of bank notes we should find the National banks an advance to 100, the protection is 40 per cent, and so far as obstacle in the path to specie payments, how wrould it be if foreign competition is concerned, the w’ool grower may demand a higher price than he otherwise could; but, on the more than double that aggregate, and swell the 300 other hand, if be wTould purchase foreign stock or raw mate¬ millions to 500 or to GOO millions ? rial, the price of it will of course be enhanced by the rise of per cent only as interest on in the Department at Washington. we THE GOLD The wide fluctuations the PREMIUM. of late in the gold premium, possibility that the price may than has ruled gold. and settle at a higher point during the past year gives rise to much those directly connected with foreign trade. The illusion w hich for a while existed, that the gold premium was to decline gradually until it reached par, and uneasiness amongst ■ . is that of the cotton man¬ ufacturers, who are. also situated quite differently from those engaged in agriculture; for, as the premium on gold advan¬ ces, so the currency price of their raw material rises, as we have just seen, while at the same time the protection afforded by tariff duties is increased. But the export trade in manu factured cottons having been annihilated by the depreciated currency of the country, the manufacturer cannot gain in the price of bis commodities from the rise of the gold premium as the planter docs upon his cotton. Furthermore, if his goods are of such a character that the protection, when the premium on gold is 50 per cent, is sufficient to prevent foreign com¬ petition, then the rise of the premium above that point is of advantage to him, but, on the contrary, he will suffer by the enhanced prices of foreign articles he may be obliged to Another great national interest would resume specie pay¬ ment without any effort, has quite passed away. Of course there never wras any foundation whatever for such an expec. tation. The idea would never have had sufficient buoyancy to float itself had it not been for the vitality given it by the low rate (25 per cent) which obtained for some time in 1866. Some argued that if it had fallen to such a point no why should it not go further; failing to realize that the decline was a temporary one induced by temporary causes. . , Gold is now merchandize. Its price within certain limits consume. The remaining interest we shall notice is that of labor. is the result of supply and demand.

Hence, there being but little demaud for gold modities that are particularly influenced by the price of except for duties, the Treasury, by more than supplying that gold. The events of the last five years have demonstrated demand, established temporarily a low rate for it. But it in a remarkable manner the effects upon wages of a general is not our object at present to suggest what point gold is to rise'of prices occasioned by a depreciation of the currency. reach hereafter, or whether even the price now ruling will Probably at no time, nor in any part of the world, has the be maintained, but simply to enquire whether (the actual result of a false standard of value upon prices and wages depreciation ot the currency remaining the same) a further been so fully exhibited as in the United States within the advance in the gold premium will be advantageous or other¬ last five years; and the evidence is most conclusive that wise to the general interests of the country.

Very clearly, (all direct effects of a rise in the gold premium, it is quite other things remaining stationary) it is greatly for the apparent that there is a wide difference in its influence upon two being affected in precisely the same planters’ interest that the premium be advanced as much as different classes—no possible, since the higher it goes the more he gets of wtat manner, or to the same extent; and it would also appear on a close examination that what is gained by a particular he is obliged to accept as money. then the banks and government ( THE CHRONICLE.

It i9 remarkable that after so long a period of dry weather, the fall of rain should have been so gentle, and that no violent thunderstorms shculd have taken place. There have, indeed, been two or three severe storms in certain districts, but over the greater part of the country there ha9 been no severity. The rain that has fallen has thoroughly saturated the parched earth, and the pastures nlready begin to have a greener appearance. The change which has taken place has necessarily relieved many a thoughtful mind. Although our harvest has been a good one, and ha9 been secured in excellent condition, yet the prospect in regard to a supply of roots for cattle for winter feed, and also of vegetables for human consumption, was very unsatisfactory. The loss of the one was naturally calculated to make meat dear, while the diminished production of the latter was been refreshed with r August 29,1868.

Trade remains extremely quiet, and as yet there appear to be no by 4,671,285 quarters, and that of ordinary years by 2,472,974 quarters.” Advices from France state that in the northwest district the wheat symptoms of substantial improvement. In some departments, however, there has been a better tone, while in others a retrograde movement crop is good and above the average ; in the west a good ordinary; in has been apparent. In cotton and cotton goods an improved feeling the northeast a good average ; in the southeast various but in some dis¬ has existed, and the value of the raw material has improved to the tricts abundant ; in the southwest about an average ; audio the central certain to lead to an lb., while so far as goods are concerned, there is less disposition ou the part of producers to make sales, consequently the tendency of prices i? against the buyer. On the other hand, the wool trade i? in a less satisfactory position ; indeed, owing to the great abundance of colonial qualities, and the marked abatement in the French demand, the trade is decidedly heavy, and prices are much lower. Ths third series of public sales of Australian and Cape produce were commenced here on Thursday. The arrivals since last sales have been very large, namely, almost 226,0C0 bales. Of that supply, 58,000 bales are from Sydney, 81,000 bales from the Cape, 51,000 New Zealand, 64,000 Port Philip, 12,* 00 from South Australia and S,800 bales from Tasmauia. The quantity of wool being so large, and foreign buyers not having as yet shown much disposition to operate freely, the trade which now consists chiefly of home buyers, are, to some extent, masters of the situation, and consequently obtain their supplies almost on their own terms. The consequence has been that good and fine wools have declined in value to the extent of Id., and faulty wools to the extent of l£d. to 2d. per lb., as compared with last sales. The result of this change is that the whole of the advance established in the first six months of the year has been fully lost. There has been an improved demand for wheat this week, and as the supplies of new produce have been small, a rise of 2s. to 3s. per quarter has been established in prices. A1 tin.ugh our crcp of wheat is a good one, and much above the average, it must te borne in mind that there is scarcely any old produce in the country, and consequently our enormous consumption must be met by the new supplies. It is vtry probable that owing to the recent drought and to the consequent scar¬ city of vegetables, the consumption of bread will be above the average during the winter months. In order, therefore, to keep wheat at its present moderate level, we shall require a large importation of foreign produce during the present year. It may, indeed, be maintained that the improvement which has taken place in the value of wheat this week will have a beneficial effect, inasmuch as the firmer tone of cur market will tend to attract foreign wheat to cur ports in larger quantities before the winter sets in. From September 1 to the close of last week our imports of wheat into the United Kingdom were 7.923,809 cwt. greater than in the corresponding period 1866-7. Of flour the receipts show a decrease of 451,401 cw7t. The exports of wheat show an increase of 276,836. and of flour, 3,556 cwt.

The blame of retaining so high a tariff must rest, however, ou the Atlantic Telegraph Company, and not on the Anglo-American; for while the latter were u ing all their exertions to bring the minimum charge down to about £5 os., the latter were employing all their influence in keeping As guineas. Sir Curtis Sampson, who professed to know all about it, affirmed, over an 1 over again, to crowded meetings of the Atlantic Company, that to reduce the tariff was, in factto ruin the company ; because the number of messages would not be up the exorbitant charge of ten increased if the tariff were a lowered, and, consequent1)7, there dead loss to the company. would be Sir Curtis Sampson met with many supporters, and several prophesied a sad end to so noble an under¬ taking, so far as the shareholders interest were concerned. No divi¬ dend, they s id, could be paid with a five guinea tariff, and therefore the money they bad invested in the concern would prove unremunerative. However, after much discussion, the Atlantic Telegraph Company, with fear and trembling, no doubt, consented to give the new tariff a three months’ trial. But only one day’s trial seemed necessary, for the num¬ ber of messages received on the first day was so large that the success of the amended tariff was indisputable. The Atlantic Board of Direct¬ ors doubtless theu perceived that they bed for many months been under the clou! ; but the instantaneous success of the changed tariff eased their minds, while they were probably not displeased that they had proved false prophets. Under the external pressure of anew company, which proposes to send messages to New York for £2, a reduction to £3 7s. 6d. will come iuto operation on the 1st of September, and if the new company should prove to be successful, a further reduction maybe looked forward to next year. is a French organization, and is called the Societe du Cable Transatlantique, limited, and will possess a capital of £1,200,000, which is to be raised in 60,000 shares of £20 each. scriptions are received in London by the Union Bank of Lon loo, m the United States through the agency of Messrs.

Our receipts show but little increase as yet, though it is anticipated that they will come in more freely very soon. These continued small receipts and small stocks on this side, together with the above Liverpool figures, and favorable Manchester reports, serve to give great firmness to the mar¬ ket here. Our market for goods lias also decidedly improved this week, both in activity and feeling, so that it is thought that our spinners must soon increase the amount they are tak¬ ing, as their stocks of goods and raw material are small. Purchasers of goods, however, would soon withdraw if prices were to advance, as they must if cotton goes higher. Sales of Friday, P. Mm August 28, 18G8.

In domestic transactions liave‘ been on a more liberal scale, prices disappointing to holders. The advance estab¬ lished in tha rates of many brands at the commencement of last month, was evidently an ill-judged measure. Buyers could not be induced to 2,28i prices in the face of a place their orders drooping at those enhanced cotton market, and a certainty the commencement of the new cotton year. The experience of last season showed the clanger of stocking up under such circumstances, and the trader conse¬ quently held aloof until such concessions were made as would shield purchasers from a probability of loss. These measures have led to a material reduction, but the efforts of speculative holders to unload, and of jobbers to retain their custom, have led to a greater break in prices than had been at first imagined. The market is quite unsettled, and in Prints especially, the decline has been of a marked character. There is, however, disposition among jobbers to make a stand at present prices, and when the drives that now tend to depress quotations are discontinued, we may expect a certain stability in., rates that of still lower rates at a fair profit to all concerned. will ensure a of dry goods for the past week, and since Jan¬ uary 1, 1868, and the total for the same time in 1867 and 1860 are shown in the following table : The exports -—PROM -PROM NEW YORK.

Fancy cassimeres ure jobbing freely at fair prices, and buyers are generally pleased with the patterns anl finish of the styles offered for selection. Our manufacturers have more made produciug more useful as well as elegant fabrics, but we are still far from perfection. The great defect of the home article of even the highest price is its liability to shrink, which fact ought to receive the careful attention of every manufacturer. great strides towards Foreign Dress Goods have been in much better demand, although the orders have as yet been relatively light. There is a disposition generally shown to restrict orders to the stock required for immediate trade, but all seas nable fabrics are taken at remunerative prices. The auction sales have been liberal during the past week ; the attendance of buyers has been large, but the prices obtained, although in advance of last seas ns rates, are still unsatisfactory to importers.
