equally so to

INSURANCE LEGISLATION.
It is not remarkable that the

adopted by the
Legislatures for protecting Insurance Companies
organized within their own States, should give rise to an at¬
tempt to secure from Congress a general insurance law, super¬
seding all State legislation, and placing insurance upon an
equal footing in all parts of the United States.
The insurance interest in each State has sought to shield
itself from the competition of companies in other States
by
procuring enactments imposing disabilities upon outside cor¬
porations. Such restrictions have materially retarded the
progress of the insurance interest, and have so far been in¬
jurious to the public welfare. The aim of such measures is
to establish a
monopoly. The public good requires that the
people shall have freedom to insure w ith whatever companies
offer the most advantageous terms of insurance.
If the
companies in a given State are unable to hold their ow'n
against the exercise of such freedom, it can only be because
they do not possess the proper requisites for transacting an
insurance business efficiently. Laws checking the competi¬

It appears that the Grand Trunk
Railway some weeks ago
ceased to take freight for Boston,
owing to an accumulation

Sarnia, and a heavy local business, which the approach¬
ing termination of the reciprocity treaty made it necessary
to hurry to market.
This threw on the other roads
more
business than they could do.
The Western rail¬
road very soon found it impossible to carry freight out
from Albany as fast as it was delivered, which led the man¬
agers of the New York Central to put up Boston above New
York freights. This arrangement not proving
a sufficient
check to prevent accumulation, they finally ceased
taking
New England freight altogether. The New York and Erie
Railroad has not the proper accommodations and so does
at

little business with Boston.

and disadvantageous to
the transportation ^companies ;
and then allege that the detention is occasioned solely
by want of proper means of transportation. Disputing
about the persons to blame for the matter will only leave it
uncorrected.
A better policy is to construct the required
avenues of transit and so to
avoid as far as practicable all
accumulations of property at intermediate places.
We are pleased, therefore, at the prospect of an increase
of railway and other facilities of transportation. If Canada,
now burdened with a debt
proportionately as large as ours,
really means to construct canals across her peninsula, she
will confer an invaluable service to our commerce.
It, how¬
ever, cannot be done at any early period.

As it now

general tendency of monetary
affairs, during the week, has been toward greater ease. The
flow of currency from the West has continued, and, with
the exception of a slight flow to the East, there has been no
current outward ; so that the supply of loanable funds has
moderately increased. The market, however, has not re¬
ceived the full benefit of this improvement, owing to a pre¬
vailing caution among lenders, inspired by uncertainty as to
whether the coming report of Mr. McCulloch might not dis¬
turb monetary affairs, and encouraged also by the apprehen¬
sion that our foreign relations are not entirely free from dan¬
ger of complications. Toward the close of the week, these
apprehensions have very much subsided, under the supposi
tionthat the Secretary of the Treasury will take no measure
tending to disturb the even current of business, but will
rather encourage strength in the money market, as tending

by the inactivity, and sold a part of their load, under an ap¬
prehension that a fall was imminent. Later in the week, a
more hopeful feeling prevailed respecting the financial policy
of the Government, and the expectation has become general
that, with an increased supply of currency arising from the
redemption of the 5 per cent notes, there will be a general
upward movement next week. This view of affairs induced
the bears to cover their shorts quite freely yesterday and to¬
day, and prices have consequently taken an upward turn,

present, the feeling of the market favors a further rise,
and it appears quite probable that, after the opening of Con¬
gress, there may be many new speculations started. The
outside public, however, appear to be inflexibly indisposed
to participate in market movements, so that operations are
likely to remain, as they have long been, simply a contest
between the brokers.
The directors of the Chicago and Northwestern road met,
during the week, to consider the question of declaring a di¬
vidend upon the preferred stock; there was considerable
division of opinion as to whether the surplus earnings should
be devoted to that purpose, or for the improvement of the
road, and the board adjourned to next week without reach¬

United States Securities.—The market has been de¬
pressed under a general desire to sell. The scarcity of money

in the

interior, and the difficulty in procuring discounts,
have compelled
many merchants and traders to sell out
their governments, as the
security upon which they would
be likely
to loose least upon realizing; and this process has
kept up a supply beyond the demand from investors. Prices
have
consequently declined on all classes of bonds, and upon
Seven-thirties especially, the third series of which at one
time touched
95|. The last issue of 5-20’s, at the middle
of the
week, fell to 98J, and the 1st issue to 100J. A gen¬
erally improved tone in monetary affairs towards the close
of the week has
encouraged the brokers to buy up freely

kets have become

excited, particularly as the ruling prices, even at the
little higher than the avearge prices of the years
1854-1862, and
so high as the highest
prices of that period. The
average price was 241 cts, and in December, 1856, and January of the
following year, 30 cts. was touched. To-day’s quotation is equal to 80
40-100 cts. gold, or 27 90-100
cts., after deducting the present duty of
21 cts., gold.
Our stocks are at this moment
very small, as the supply from Lake

over for six months to
come.

and it is at this momeut
probably larger than ever. A few manufac¬
turers have
bought during the late rise, but on the whole they are not

to be an impression at the close that
prices of hogs had reached the
bottom, and that packing for the English market would be safe at the
prices, and the advance in gold strengthened this feeling.
The receipts of hogs
during the week were 34,248 head, against
62,877 the corresponding week last year, and 70,000 the same week in
1863.
Up to this time last year the total receipts from
Kentucky
were but 8,000
head, while this season they reach 44,000 head. This
difference was caused by the
military restrictions in force in Kentucky
last year at this date.

If we are not mistaken iu our theory of the surplus crop of wheat
in the Northwest for 1865, this preponderence iu
of Milwaukee
will be maintained in the winter and spring receipts.
Only about onethird of the surplus crop of north Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin haa
been marketed, nor will more than that be sold or shipped before the
close of navigation.
The entire surplus crop of the section above
named for 1865, will reach 30,000,000 bushels of wheat and flour ; at
least 25,000,000 of this will reach the seaboard through the port of
Milwaukee.
