THE MONEY MARKET.

daily humors and rumors of Wall Street, though
singularly active in some of their incidental effects are in
themselves rarely worthy of serious attention, except for the
moment.
During the past week a series of peculiar circum¬
stances have given prominence to certain floating rumors of
changes in the policy of the Secretary, of the Treasury.
These reports took their origin from various quarters, and

who
by interested speculators that Mr. McCulloch, in August,
1865, was about to repeat the experiment which Mr. Chase
attempted in April, 1864, when, by locking up suddenly a
few millions of currency, he produced a panic, the disastrous
results of which will not soon be forgotten.
Those who had
known most of the present Secretary of the Treasury argued
in vain that he was too sound in his views, too prudent in his
policy, and too experienced in banking and financial affairs to
be betrayed by any specious arguments into a course which
would not only compel the banks to withdraw their tempor¬
ary deposits from the Treasury, but would disturb the finan¬
cial machinery of the country, diminish the credit of the Gov¬
ernment, throw large amounts of the seven-thirties on the
market, and lower the price of the certificates of indebtedness,
on which the Government must now be largely dependent for
means to
pay the claims of its needy and clamorous credi- •
tors.
It was also urged that since his appointment to office,
Mr. McCulloch had done nothing to lay himself open to the
suspicion of adopting such a mischievous and short-sighted
policy.

reluctantly and for no other reason than that for a short
time “ the fiscal requirements of the government left no other
course to be pursued.”
The anticipations of stringency to which we referred last
week, have thus been to a certain extent realized, While
our currency, however, is s<> 'inflated, and Its stability is liable
to disturbance from so many causes, it id obviously impossi¬
ble to forecast the movements of the money market with
any certain approach to accuracy.
Its changes are so eccen¬
tric, unexpected, and sudden, as to perpljex the sagacity not
only of the disinterested observer but also of those who to
solve with certainty the problem, would in certain great ter¬
rible crises willingly give a large part of what they are worth.
If one cause of the irregularity in the movements of the money
market is that capital moves in
larger masses than formerly,
and that these larger masses move over a larger area, a more
important cause of mischief has often been found in the de¬
rangement of the currency by the vast operations of the
Treasury, though it is only fair to Mr. j McCulloch to say
that the perturbations from this cause have been fewer during
his administration than during any similar period since the

is endowed with a

national loss can only be retrieved
by political repose and
industrial activity.
Bleeding, bruized and exhausted, from

that the actual out¬ turn of the cotton
crop of 1864-5 in the Northwestern Provinces was 1,650,412 maunds
of 80 lbs each, or 15 per cent less than the estimated out-turn, ow¬
ing to the scarcity of rain last monsoon. Still, this is an inrease of
47 per cent over the crop of 1863-4, which amounted to 1,122,051
maunds. The Cotton Inspector’s Report show$ similar progress in

This season, 1864-5, just closed, it is estimated at 80,417 acres,

The Bourse exhibited a slight animation at the commencement
of the week, which was sustained with difficulty. Operations were

extremely limited, and dullness rather than

caution characterized

the market.
The Paris municipal loan for 10,000,000/ was taken by the credit
Mobilier. The other compeditors were the Credit Foncier, Roths

child, and the Syndicat of Bankers represented by the Comptoir
d’Escompte. It appears that the Credit Mobilier balance sheet
this half-year shows a loss of 120,000/, but thejr are said, neverthe¬
less, to have been making extensive purchases of their shares, which
advanced from 697 to 747.
Accounts from the agricultural districts of France represent the
approaching harvest as inferior to an ordinary year. The deficiency
of the wheat crop is estimated at from a quarter to a third of an av¬
erage, and this deficiency will be increased in case the apprehended
injuries by the too great heat of the weather; should be realized.
The deficiency in the South of France, where the harvest is nearly
concluded,, is so well ascertained that prices have risen in several of
the markets j while the want of water in the rivers has compelled
millers to stop working, and produced a fall in the markets of the

from the pinch in j- the money market, and partly from the
debt statement proving more favorable than expected. Gold
is freely offered on loan, even by the “ bulls ”; but there are
few borrowers. The present tendency appears to favor quo¬
tations ; but the market is so completely under speculative
control that it is difficult to forecast the probabilities. Should
the course of the money m^ket favor further purchases by
the “ bulls,” it might possiblylturn out that we should witness
greater scarcity, resulting in an advance of the premium.

stringency of the Money Market, with which the
week opened, and the sudden
collapse of sundry speculations, have
given a rather feverish tone to trade. An uncomfortable feeling
has prevailed throughout business circles, and
prices have become
a good deal unsettled.
The improved state of
[the money market
during the past two days, has been without effect in consequeuce of
the decline in gold, which has
ratherqncreased the.- apprehensions of
speculative holders.

DUTCH* WEST

A cir-

trade again shows considerable animation,
cular thus reviews our market for July :
In the early part of last month the jmarket for Kentncky tobacco
not show much activity.
In the Southern sections the prospects for
The Tobacco

consumption and small orders.
The prices of the Virginia sold, ranged from 7£ to 9 cents currency,
for ordinary and out of condition, and 10 a 13 gold for good and sound.
Receipts are on the increase and compare with last year’s as follows:
Receipts for July, 1S65, 14,119 hhds.; Jannary to July 81, 1865,86,477;
July, 1864, 19,629 hhds.; and from January 1 to July 31,1864, 55,984.
The quality of the new crop shows but little improvement. The light
sorts, in many instances, show more length than quality, being a good
deal washed out, flimsy and ragged. Green River, Western District
and Clarksville are more satisfactory, being generally of large spread
of leaf, although here and there affected by worms. '
Havana tobacco has continued in good request ; sales of the mouth
the rest for

nearly 8,000 bales, fillers and fillery assorted, of which 200 were for
export at 9 a 12 cents gold, in bond, and some 2,800 for home trade, at
7*0 a 80 for medium, and S5 a 95 currency for good and fine, duty paid.
The demand continues good, as also, for good quality Yara tobacco, of
which the market is bare.
Seed leaf has been in active demand, the sales being nearly 5,000
cases of which some 3,500 cases were running and wrappery lots of
Connecticut, at 15 a 22 and 22 a 30 -cents. Also, about 800 cases of
running lots of New York State, at 10 a 13 cents, and some 500
cases Ohio and Pennsylvania at 6^ a 9f£, almost all of which was for ex¬
port to Germany.
J J
The demand for good wrappery lots,, particularly of Connecticut, still
continues, but only within the figures paid during tne month. Manufac¬
tured tobacco has been very lively, oyef 7,000 pkgs. having been sold,

principally tax paid black work, and pncluding some 2,000 pkgs. black
and bright Virginia—the latter sort for California trade. The black
work sold consisted mainly of old stock, Brooklyn and Western 1 0?s and
^lb., in medium and poor condition, and brought an average of 45 a
52£ cer)ts, tax paid. The large quantities of tobacco coming from the
South, the bulk of which is in bad order, has tended rather to weaken
prices of these sorts. 'Virginia tobaccos are quoted lower than Western
and City make, in consequence of greater deterioration by age and
condition. Stock July 81st, 1865,4,951 pkgs.

did
the
crop improved. Still it is certain that the extent of planting in these
sections is greatly restricted, and hence no disposition to recede from the
stand taken for the value of heavy grades, and particularly for Clarks¬
ville. Towards the midtile of the month more disposition was shown
to realize, particularly old stocks, and as prices were more within the
views of buyers, business took a lively turn. The sales, including 400
bhds. Virginia, comprise fully 7,000 hhds., of which about 3,500 for
Government contracts, 1,500 low grades and about 1,500 Clarksville

At Monday’s market the demand for English Wheat was
languid, but prices were well supported to the close.
American and Canadian Wheat are quite as dear from poor as¬
sortment of prime samples on offer. * Barrel Flour—The small ar¬
rivals coming to a bare market have been easily sold at our full
quotations. Floaliny Grain Cargo Trade.—The arrivals have
been rather on a limited scale, and Wheat finds buyers at last week’s
prices. Odessa Ghirka has been sold at 38s. 3d. per 492 lb3.
Maize, from scarcity, maintains its present |high value, 80s. being
refused for a cargo close at hand. At to-day’s market the attend¬
ance was very thin.
English and Foreign Wheat met a poor de¬
mand, and prices were rather in favor of the buyer.”

speculation in Flours and Wheat, which we noticed
in the last Chronicle, culminated with the date of that report, and
prices have declined nearly as much the past week as they advanced
the previous ^week , while, with increased receipts here and at the
West, and the absence of a demand from Great Britain, at current
if
prices, the tendency is still downward.
There is a disposition at present to discourage -speculation for an
advance. The quantity of last year’s
^crops is shown to bo much
larger than usual. Crops last year were good, but it will be seen
by the statistics we give, that the quantities of flour and wheat
which have come forward, are much below the average. This is at¬
tributable to a variety of causes, most prominent among which is
is the distrust of the currency, which has largely prevailed in some
portions of the West.
|
At to-day’s market trade was very dull—buyers hold off for a
decline—in Wheat there was very little pressure to sell, but ship¬
ping grades of Flour, as well as Corn and Oats, declined materially.
But iu Wheat there was nothing done, because holders declined to
yield in prices.

THE SAME

Friday Evening,

August 4,1865.

Market has exhibited but little change generally
during the week, either in the demabd or in prices. The market is,
however, very unsettled and uncertain. The gold fluctuations and
■the temporary pressure in the money market have had their effect,
as well as expectations of more liberal importations.
The truth is,prices of all fabrics are too high. Couutry merchants do not come
forward for extensive purchases, consequently the demand is light,
with a, perhaps temporary, lull in the trade. Jobbers are in some
instances selling below Agents’ prices, believing that present high
Dry Goods

Manufactures of wool...

make but little

becoming more abundant, though agents
concession from last weeks’s prices. Mills complain

help is still scarce, but must admit that the product is greater
than the present demand.
Prices are held at 33 for standard,

a

briskness this week, and the
that a little further]reduction in

so

supply would make it a question of goods rather than price.
Prices are firm, but with no material advance, though the tendeucy
is upward, with a probability of a greater scarcity in the supply.
The choice styles of cassimeres and doeskins are quickly taken at
full prices. Flannels and Kentucky Jeans are in demand beyond
the supply. *
j
Foreign Goods are in good demand, and prices slightly advanc¬
ed. Doeskins are not as abundant and bring higher prices. Black
cloths and over-coatings are ini good demand and command full
prices. The supply of nice dress goods is still below the demand.
Silks are still kept at very high figures, and the business is for pres¬
ent consumption only.

Sea Shore Railroad.—The

Long Branch and Sea Shore Rail¬
opened to the public on the last of July, au excursion
party composed of the friends of the enterprise having first passed
over it.
This road is, as its name implies, a sea-shore line, and the
scenery along it truly mariue.
In one part it takes the narrow sand
strip between Shrewsbury Inlet and ocean. As an accommodation
to the summer sojourners at Long Branch it will prove of unques¬
tionable value, connecting them with New York by rail and steam¬
road

a

distance of two hours.

The Atlantic Cable.—Our London dates of the 23d

July afford
telegram from Yalentia states the shore end
of the Atlantic cable to have been landed, aud the connection made
with the land instruments on the 22d instant, in the presence of a
large concourse of people. Enthusiastic speeches were made by the
Knight of Kerry, Sir Robert Peel, and others. Three cheers were
given for the Queen and President Johnson.
We may expect to receive news in New York by Saturday night
or
Sunday with regard to the success of this grand enterprize. In
the meantime, crowds of visitors are gathering at Heart’s" Content,
Newfoundland, to witness the landing of the telegraphic cable. The
yacht Clara Clarita, with Engineer Everett’s party on board, arrived
at Aspy Bay yesterday.
The weather was fine, and the elements

opinion is expressed that the quantity is inexhaustible.
Michigan is already our richest mineral producing State, supplying
nine-tenths of all our copper, one-eigth of our iron, one-fourth of
our salt.
It has also gold and silver mines, but the value of these
is questionable, and it is yet to be proved that they are workable.
Its coal is in vast abundance, but has not yet been formally work¬
ed. The future will create means and opportunity which are now
wanting, for the lull development of this mineral as well as its

Dublin; the late Dr. Gregory, Professor of Chemistry in the Univer¬

rank with the illustrious Forraday, all of whom lived and died in the
faith of the truth of homoeopathy—not to mention a host of other names
of men, living and dead, in every department of literature, science and
art.

Homoeopathic Review, referring to the matter, says :
