There has been rather a better demand for gold for export, and
is expected that a portion of the supply of £500,000 now due
from Australia will be sent abroad. The exact proportion, however, is as yet uncertain.

It is stated that the
new coinage is at length beginning to find favor with the Chinese,
and consequently better prices are looked forward to. The following quotations for bullion are from the circular of Messrs

The interval separating this series from

the preceding one hai been quiet, the
transactions by private coutrnct being on the whole rare and limited In extent.
Still, whatever was sold readily commanded full rates, and as the industry
was known to continue well employed, a firm tone waa conUdently
expected for this siTlus. Nor has the result been disappointed; on the contrary, a fresh rise of about Id per lb has been established, founded aa all previous advances, not on some momentary whim of the market, but upon the
solid and satisfactory basis of real requlrementa. The enhanced rates have
therefore all the elcmenta of subliity, all the more as the supplies at this
season are necessarily small. Of fresh wools theru can hardly have been

It will be seen that our operating expenses have been large,
but this is due in a measure to the condition in which we found
the road and equipment.
For two years previous to the receivership the financial condition was such that nothing was done that could by any possibility
be avoided. Consequently the iron and rolling stock was very
much dilapidated.
The report then
states that the road and equipment have been
greatly improved under the receiver's administration and large
amounts expended thereon, and that " it will require next year
for new rails and bridges about $50,000 over and above the ordinary repairs, to place the road, stations and bridges in first-class
order."

year and also a reduction in depot expenses and repairs, by adIf the contract with the Ohio

The IHoner IHarket.—The regular course of monetary affairs
has been much disturbed during the week by the continuance of
artificial measures for making monev stringent, by the temporary
'locklng-up of legal tenders. At th« date of our last report the
market had just been relaxed bv the return of funds previously
withdrawn, but we intimated then that tbo attempt would very
probably be renewed, and a further effort made to depress stodts.
During the early days of the week call loans to stoek b(ok*rs
were made very stringent and 7 per cent gold was generally paid.

State and Railroad Bonds.— Southern State bonds have
been without new features of interest, and prices as given below
have not shown wide fluctuations. An act before the Georgia
Legislature provides for the thorough investigation into the
financial affairs of that State and the circumstances attending the
issue of all the new bonds. The Governor of Missouri, in his
recent message, advises the payment ot State interest in gold.
For railroad bonds there is a very good demand from home and
foreign investors, and for individual purchasers these securities
are now the favorite investment of the market. The old railroad
bonds are becoming high and scarce, and the better class of new
loans offering are reported by the financial agents as selling satisfactorily.

since July, 1862. This depression is produced by the large Treasury disbursements and the advance of our bonds in London.
The Assistant Treasurer in thia city has now disbursed about
$20,000,000, which, taken together with the prospective interest
p.-iyincnts on the first of .Tanuary, and the calling in of another

For commercial paper the market has been unsettled by the
stringency in call loans and bank disturbances we, therefore,
omit our usual list of quotations.
United States Bonds.— The chief feature of the Government
bond market has been the continued firmness in prices, notwithstanding the weakness in gold and the various disturbances in
monetary circles, 'i'he stock of Governments on the market
seems to be small, and although purchases by the Treasury have
recently been of small amounts, in consequence of the high
prices ruling, the demand continues to be ahead of the supply. As

was a decrease of $1,358,025 in the excess over 25 per cent legal
reserve, the whole of such excess being reduced to $5,720,225.
Changes from previous week's statement were as follows Loans,
Circulation,
increase, $1,771,500; Specie, increase. $'>,110,400
increase, $15,900 Deposits, decrease, $1,108,300; Legal tenders,
decrease, $6,741,500.
The following statement shows the present condition of the
associated banks, compared with the same date in the last two vearsDec.

a temporary depression in prices, but taken altogether it must be
conceded that stocks have withstood the various disturbances
with remarkable firmness. The lock-up in money is generally
considered to have been a failure, and the parties engaged in it
are reporled to have lost by their operations. The strength of
stocks, as above noted, seems to indicate a confidence in prices on
Ocean bank, announced on Monday, foUowod
Eighth National and the Union Square banks have
been among the exciting features of the week. The Ocean bank
failure throws suspicions of a serious character upon the integrity
of Mr. Callender, the bank examiner, in this city, whose checks
to a considerable amount are reported to have been included
among the bank's assets. Mr. Callender has been removed or
allowed to resign, and his transactions, and also the condition of
the assets of the failed banks are now under investigation.
Rumors were yesterday circulated that the Commonwealth, Tenth
National, and some other banks were in a weak condition, but
these rumors are refuted to-day, as to the Commonwealth by a
conclusive report by the Clearing House Committee, and as to
other banks by satisfatory information.
The last statement of our associated city banks reflected the
locking up of legal tenders and the payments of gold from the
Treasury, though the amount of increase in specie was far below
the amount of gold payments by the Assistant Treasurer, being
accounted for in part by the fact that the gold certificates have
been placed in some cases as special deposits not to be included

New Orleans City Finances, The Mayor's message recently delivered has the following " In March, 1870, when the new
charter came into effect, the funded debt of the cit.v was $15,000,000, and the floating debt was represented to be $3,600,000, mak
log a total of $17,600,000. TJie Legislature, to disembarrass tlio
city and enable it to reestablish its credit, authorized the issue of
three million dollars of city bonds to fund tlio floating debt. But
it was found that the amount of the floating debt had been largely understated, that the $3,000,000 bonds were insufficient, and
that $600,000 worth of claims wore unprovided for. To dispose of
this old floating debt thus lelt over, and of a new deficit which had
since occurred, and, also, of an estimated deficit for the .vear 1871,
amounting in the aggregate to $1,970,840, it was proposed in
1. Prices of the most Active Stocks nnd Bonds are siven
n the "Bankers' Gazette," previously. Full quotations of all other sccuriies will be found on the two preceding pages.

issue, the periods of interest payment, size or denomination of honds, and
numerous other details, are given in the U. S. Debt statement published in
The Chronicle on the first of each month.

missouri State Finances. The Governor of Missouri, in liia
recent message to tlie ]jegislaturo, recommemls tlie registration of
State bonds, and payment of interest after January 1, 1873, in
gold. Tlie debt of the State he pives, " as shown by the Fund
Commissioner's report, at * 17,866,000; the assessed value of all
property, as presented by the Auditor, $.17.'5,000,000 and the tax
;
provided by ordinance to meet interest and retired bonds is one
quarter ot one per cent. The same prescribes that the tax on railroads shall go into the interest account. As that tax, resisted for
some time, but lately confirmed, will now bo collected, it should
be steadily applied to the end indicated. There are also in the

St. Joseph Railroad bonds, available for 1872, and aggregating
$517,000. The tax for general revenue is also one fourth of one
per cent."
After showing the amount of debt falling due each year, the
Governor remarks " that the only bonds which mature in amounts
likely to cause aiiy ditficulty are those of 1875 and 1876, and that
a loan of two millions and a half or three millions for five years
will bridge the interval up to a time when the surplus will be

As to the debts of counties, towns and cities, ho says " in order
to arrive at a correct knowledge of that indebtedness, returns have
been had by the Treasury Department from all counties, cities
and townships of bonds issued or pledged, and of warrants or
other dues for which they are responsible. It will be sufficient

" In a large majority of cases the issue of these bonds has been
voted by the localities in full faith of an ability to meet them at
maturity, and has been attended by an ample special tax to provide for interest. The act of last session limiting the total indebtedness of each to 10 p r cent of the taxable value of property
has had a most wholesome restraining intlaence. But in some
instances the will of the communities has not been consulted in
others it has been entirely disregarded when expressed, and occasionally suspicion has been fastened even uoon the integrity of
courts themselves by their course in such transactions. Additional legislation will therefore be needed.
A registration of all
local bonds with the Auditor should bo required, and for their
protection he should be authorized to certify down the amount ol
special tix necessary each year, to be collected and returned in
like manner as State taxes, and paid out upoa his warrant by the
Treasurer. Provision should also be made whereliy, in cases of
alleged fraud, the registration of bonds might be enjoined summarily."
Georgia State Bonds. The Legislature of Georgia has passed
a bill, which at last accounts was before the Governor, providing
that there shall be appointed by the presidin r officers ot the two
houses a committee of three, who shall meet in Atlanta, March 1,
1872, and continue in session not exceeding sixty days, " who shall
have full power and authority to examine and ascertain the
number of State bonds which have been issued, the aggregate
amount thereof, and so far us they have been sold or hypothecated, by whom sold, the amount of money paid, to whom paid,
when paid, for what purpose negotiated, and all other facts connected with the history of said bonds, and to report the same to
the General Assembly at its next session."

I.onl«viIle and Nashville Railroad.— Annual report for the
year ending June 30, 1871. The Vice-Presideni's report states:
•'
Attention is called to stsuement of the Secretary's repo t, showing
the profit and loss account. It will be seen that there has been a
reduction of $507,578 43 in this account as shown in last year's
report.
To this account has been charged the cost of the additional rolling-stock, shop, depot grounds, and new buildings,
amounting to $561,651 46. The value of the road has been increased to that extent, and this amount should properly come
under the head 'Cost of Ro d but as by resolution of the
Board of November 16, 1867, the construction account was closed,
it has been charged, in accordance with this resolution, to profit
and loss account, and does not therefore appear under the head of
Resources.' The same is true of tlie sum of $593,107 09, which
wa3 expended in the previous year for the same purpose, and
charged in the same way. Adding these two amounts to the

ask the Legislature for authority tor a further iucrease of bonds
to absorb the floating debt, and for power to impose an additional
tax of one per cent to meet the anticipated deficit.
The Legislature grauted the bonds, but refused the tax, and a
legislative enactment was subsequently found to have canceled
five eights of one per cent of the tax which the council had
already imposed and which was included in the estimate of its
current receipts. The result Is, that though more than a million
and a half dollars of bonds, including wharf and improvement
bonds, have since been issued, there will be at the end of this
year a floating debt of $1,640,000.
Observe Tliere has been a steady increase of the debt. In
1867 it was $14,643,000; in 1868, it was $16,375,000; in 1869,11
was $17,000,000 in 1870. it was $18,887,000 in July last it was

a pretty dull week on Ihla market with few, if aay,
decidedly new festurea shown. Ilolders remain Inn, Indeed are a lltUe more
coufldent if anything than at the date of our laat report, but are not eoablad
to sell many gooda, scarcely enough buslneas l>clng reported on most giadas
to fully eatablish values. Buyers from the Interior are not plenty, and aa thia
curtails the diatributlon from store Jobbers arc dlainclined to handle InvolCM
to an extent calcniated to greatly iocroase their stocks before the commeneament of the new year. On Dragila the |>osillon has gained alrength throa|h
he receipt of the Hlo Janeiro telegram with dales to Nov. nd. The advleas
'how a favorable statistical position and Increased valnea and Importer* faal
mnch encouraged in consequence, all now insisting apon full former rates
and »ome ordering their samples withdrawn to await an advance, and there an
many evidences of an intention to hold (Irmly and carry a strong market ortr
into the new year. The renponse from buyers thus far, to be snre, ha* b««s
slow, and no positive indications prevail of an immediate revival of the demand, but this is not a season to look for mnch decided activity, and again it
will require some little time to talk over and weigh the bearings t>efore operations are opened, especially as the cost of gooda is now so high.
The stock
unhand is only fair. Acconnla from the outporta speak of a Arm feeltag
generally, but no great activity.
East India descriptions have been doll,
buyers still looking upon the rates asked as too high to warrant investment,
and the market has less general strength than on any other style of colTae.
Stocks In Srst and second hands fair and addit iona due at an early day. Weat
India grades pretty Arm and holders not particularly anxious to operate. This
is capeclally noticeable on good Maracaibo which is growing more into favor
in view of its relatively low cost, and the finer qualities being a really desirable coffee, it is hoped that an advance can be establiahed and maintained
when consumers arc once convinced of its value aa a substitnte for many other
!,'rade!<.
At the close favorable advices from Enrope tend to still further
strengthen holders' views on Brazils, and an advance generally is asked. Sale*
of 165 bags Rio, 160 bags Lagnayra, 830 bags HI. Domingo, and 940 pkgs Mocha.
There have been shipped from first bands to Bremen 300 t>ags St Domingo.

There has again been an absence of any very general life on
this market, and a pretty evident desire among all classes of
buyers to confine their operations as closely as possible to actual
wants. Some slight attempts were made to induce a speculative
feeling upon the probability that Congress would take up the
partially passed bill of last year abolishing duties, and legislate

Amoy.— There had within the previous ten days been a good inquiry for
Oolongs, and prices for the lower grades had gradually fallen ofi' to the extent
of about $1 per picul the highest grades, however, commanding the same

prices.
FoooHow.— A business
of 60,000 half chests in Congous had been done during the fortnight the Oolong market has been maintained with a steady
inquiry and at present few parcels of finest teas on ofier.

continued nncertain and depressed tone has been the rnling feature of
this market since our last report, and volume of business was confined within
very narrow limits. Refiners and the trade would now and then manifest a little
interest, as something unusually attractive in quality and cheap in price was
Bhown, but there was no general open or positive demand, and the accumulation in first hands has undergone but little reduction. Holders, in many
cases, begin to feel a little anxious to sell out before the close of the year, and
not only off'er their supplies with freedom, but have further modified prices on
pretty much all grades, and the cost can hardly be complained of. Indeed,
buyers, as a rule, acknowledge that goods are reasonably low, and claim to be
-ndifl'erent solely from want of use for stock, should they take it
Domestic
without any particularly stirring features, thedemand proving fairand also the
supply; and somewhat higher prices current on prime grades, though for some
of the common sorts, inside figures were accepted in order to prevent an accnmulation. Still, on the whole, there appear to be buyers for about the en.
tire receipts at present, and the market has a generally steady tone at the
close. Syrups of common quality are dnll, but fine grades in fair demand.

Shanghai.— In Green still the inquiry has been greater than receipts, which
further reduces the stock this condition of the market has enabled sellers in

The advices from the points of production recently received are considered
strong and encouraging, but have not stimulated the market indeed, in some
eases the tone is a little soft, as parcels to arrive were ofl'ered on relatively
easier terms than those current on the spot, and failed to attract any great
amount of attention. Most of the jobbers feel that they have enough stock in
store to meet present necessities, and are little inclined to make fresh purchases until after the opening of the year, and few invoices therefore are
;
upon positive wants. Holders refrain from any pressure to
realize- in fact the majority claim to feel as firm as ever, and some hopes are
entertained that goods in bond may yet prove valuable property, by reason of
& reduction or entire abolishment of the duty. The retail trade has been fair
called for, except

have reduced their discounts on several brands of flat-fold cambric* 2} per cent, so that these goods are now selling at Sic, less
6 per cent, with a prospect of an early advance to 9c. Some

established soon. The consumption of these goods has been unusually large this year, and since the recent reduction stocks have

been worked off freely.
Prints are in moderate request, without
recent change, and prices are sustained with a fair degree of
firmness. Cotton flannels are quiet and unchanged.
Domestic Woolen Goods. The market for woolens is quiet
with prices unchanged.
The demand for winter weights is so
small that there is no prospect of prices advancing on these
goods but in view of the steadily advancing market for wool,
spring goods are likely to be considerably higher. Some of the
lower gradts are selling in spring weights to clothiers and other
early buyers, but the movement is not large owing to the compar
atively light offerings. In flannels the business for some time
past has been unimportant, but prices are steady and without
quotable change. Blankets are dull. Fancy knit goods are selling moderately at full prices. Hosiery is quiet.
FOREION Goods. There is no activity in tbe market for any
imported fabrics is dull with no notable changes. A few of the
more staple qualities of dress fabrics are selling well, bat the
trade is about over, and as it is too early to show spring importations the market in first hands is flat. There is some speculative
