The final settlement and the correct payment of these accounts should be under the supervision of a Comptroller or other proper officer designated for that purpose.

A loss to the Post Office Department some years since, supposed to have been caused by the collusion of the then postmaster in the city of New York and an officer of the Treasury Department, and the recent loss to the Government through an agency account, would probably have been avoided had there been a proper officer of the Treasury Department to review the adjustment and the settlement of these classes of accounts and decide upon the sufficiency of the receipts given in payment therefor. It is suggested that the office of a Third Comptroller be created to take all these accounts and their final settlement in charge, or that they be given, l^ke all other accounts, for adjustment, settlement and evidence of correct payment of the draft or check issued thereon in charge of one of the present Comptrollers of the service faithful were rewarded by a certain per centage of advance in their stipend. Some such method of appealing to the emulation of Government officers has been adopted by some European governments with the best results. There are several other points in the document before us We must recur to them too important to be passed over. One hereafter. of these urges Bureau of National Insurance establ'sliment tlie in the of a Treasury, providing for Government bonds, to be made in Washington by Insurance Companies, just as is nquired of the National Banks.

The Ur^'* amount of Treasury sales $7,000,000 the payment of gold iftterenon Blra. Twenties, and the prospect that the payment of bonds called in December 1 would throw a large supply of gold on the m arket were all inflQenees which tended to depreos the, premium. On Wednesday, November 20, the last btuinesa day of the mouth, the Assistant Treasurer at New York cashed plfiOOjOOO of the Tr«M ury gold checks in payment of Five-Twentlea called in for Dec. 1, and up t > that day $0,000,000 of the bonds had been forwarded to Washington, and $8,000,000 had been examined and checks drawn for them. Foreign exchange was very much depressed daring the ilrst few days of November by the stringency in gold, and the best 60 days' bankers sterling was sold on the street as low as 108^ but sii'tAequently the market recovered as gold became easier, and )Bfen erally ruled firm until near the close, when there was a reaction from the highest figures. The banking house which negotiated the New Tork City loan was reported as drawing freely at times during the month. It was also oupposod that some of the large purchases of bills were made by parties to whom Five-Twenty bonds h^d been sent to be presented for payment December 1 and who bought exchange in anticipation, while the rates were — — , ; low.

The University and otlier funds, what is known as the Patton Certificates, and accounts unsettled or Auditor's warrants unpaid, wh ch he uses to make up the other $3,319,617 00 do not constitute, in any accepted signifi•cation of the term, ]>ublic debt and their inclusion as such, unwarranted and unexplained, greatly tends to damage the value of the classes First: "Old," or " ante-war debt." including $383,045 held by the Board of Education which is In the form of a certificate issued iu lieu of old bonds Accrued interest $8,761,845 1,583,615 $10,349,760 '.State's securities. The Auditor further speaks of this school fund as a part of the this point, also, there is manifestly a misapprehension. It is expressly provided by the law of Congress that the fund proper is never to be paid to the beneficiary, or used in any way or for any purpose except to 'produce an income. All the legislation of our State has been in strict accordsimilar requireance with this provision. But this is not all. ment is embodied in our State constitution. Section 10, Article 11, of that instrument, says that the fund in question "shall be and remain a perpetual fund," "the interest and income of which" shall be "inviolably appropriated to educational purposes." Yet the Auditor persists in the error, and adds that it is "an State's indebtedness. of the Public Treasurer exhibits the condition of the debt. An analysis of it will show that the debt consists of the following On A increase of $383,906 62 over statement rendered one year ago," without explanation. No bonds have been issued and no public debt incurred by or during the present administration. Wlience arises this increase of the public debt ? The Auditor leaves the explanations to the figures of his tabular statement, where it is discovered that the 8 per cent bonds, payable in New York in 1886 and 1888 and in 1866 and 1868 amounted to about $60,090 re than the Auditor stated them to be in his report of last year. This sum added to $217,622 32 of Auditor's warrants of past fiscal year uupaid, and six thousand dollars borrowed under the former administration, make up it is supposed this increase of the public debt. With this elucidation of the Auditor's increase of the public debt, I invite your attention to the following paragraph found in the Auditor's Report (on page 21 thereof.) " I regret to call your attention again to the fact that the proceeds of sale of the bonds of the State of Alabama made long since as per official information on file in this office have not been certified as required by law." "The amount stated last year as not having been placed into the treasury, was $113,400 00, to which if we add those sold during the fiscal year just closed, $59,500 00, we have a total amount of State bonds sold and not certified into the Treasury of This office is unofficially informed that much of $171,900 00. this amount has been already expended by the financial agentsin payment of liabilities incurred during the fiscal year.

The fifth class stan I on the same footing as the second, but they were sold probably at a lower average price. The Iwnds of the sixth class were sold, nearly all of them, at rainous rates many of thera bringinf; only 10 to 30 cents in currency ; very many were sold under circumntances which ought to have put prudent men on their guard sold in a reckless and gambliug manner, so that it was plain to the most unwary that the agent ot tiie Company to which they were issued was not acting with fidelity to thu interests of his principal beside many werodi«]X)?ed of after thetlenernl Assembly, by the act ol January, 1870, gave notice to the world that they had ordered the return of said bonds, and that future sale.4 of them would be invalid and lastly, a large number, according to a report made by a Committee — — — — of the House of Representatives, were issued without the certificate required by law. The Heventh class, I am ot opinion, the State cannot recognize but if she owns any property purchased with tlie proceeds ot these bonds, such property might be surrendere 1 to bona fide purcha.sers of said bonds before their constitutionality was questioned. Further than this, in my opinion, the General Assembly cannot go. Tho only remedy whicli the public creditor can possibly make available, as to the legality of which I express no opinion, is the enforcement, through the courts, of the provisions of such charters of the various railroad companies in which the State owns stocic as subject tiie stock held by the St»te, and all dividends thereon, to the payment of the principal and interest of the l)ond^ issued for tlie benefit of such companies. In the case of the North Carolina Railroad Company, the Circuit Court of the United States for the District of North Carolina, has already decided to subject tho dividends declared by the Company on the stock Ijelonging to tlie State to the payment of interest on the bonds of tlie State issned It is said to be in contemplafor the benefit of that corporation. tion to ask the Court to order a sale of stock held by tlie State sufficient to reimburse to the bondholders the dividends heretofore paid into the public Treasury. I respectfully suggest to the Qenerul Assembly whether it is not proper to order a sale of all the stocks owned by the State, to be paid for in the securities for which sucli stocks were originally pledged. Such a course would reduce the debt of the State to a large extent, and seems to be demanded by the terms of the contract with the public creditor. Tiie last question is, what shall be done with the public debt, supposing that the State cannot, or will not, pay the interest now, and will not give any assurance of paying the same within a reasonable time? The Governor suggests the following proposition Let the State create a new debt, issue new bonds beiring three percent interest, payable in specie, witii a tax imposed in the act sufficient to raise funds to pay such interest then make it optional with the bondholder to exchange their old bonds for the new issue, or await the chances of such improvement in the condition of the State as will secure to them payment of their claims in full. I suggest, without mak'ng any recommendation either pro or con, that it might be provided that in lieu of $1,0U0 Ixmds iiearing three per cent interest, $.'500 bonds bo.iring six per cent interest might lie given in exchange for each l|l,COO bond held by him. In my opinion the people can boar tlie burden of such a settlement, and tliose bondliolders who do not tliink they have a specific lien on valuable stocks owned by the State (e. g., those of the North Carolina Railroad Company,) would be willing to accept one proposal or the other. Of course it will be entirely optional with tlie creditor whether ho will accept eitlier proposition, or await future developments. By pursuing this course tho Qeneral As sembly would merely acknowledge frankly a palpable truth; they would o&er the liest which, in the judgment of many, the people can do at present, and they would refrain from a repudiation of : — Satordar decMad to pajr off hiUr • mlllioD of tbatr floating debt between now and the tit of January, leaylDg about |800XI0<> to b« paid on Iha Ut of April n.ixt, clearing the road of lU floaUng debt.

I. Kiiuball of Atlanta, became involved financially, and work wns srisgended. It was under contract from Albany westward to Enfauia, Ala., where it was to connect with the Brunswick and Vicksburg road, a considerable section of which has been built tliis season. It has been reported that Governor Bullock of Georgia had Inned to the company iionds for tlie part of the road uncompleted. Concerning this the Albany (Ga.) A'^ewa says; " Whether Mr. Kimball has received more bonds than thennmher of miles of completed road calls for, as currently reported and generally believed, we have no means of knowing, and care but little, as that is Bullock's and the brmdholdera' quarrel, not believe Mr. Kimball intended in good faith to accomours. plish all he undertook, and had no thought of overreaching Bullock or of plundering Georgia. Till the contrary is cUarly shown we sliall give no credence to defamatory rumors and entertain no suspicion of his complicity with schemes to rob our people." Early last month the managers of this road commenced running triweekly trains between IJrunswick and Albany. is one of a considerable system in We — EdKefleld and Kentaeky Kallroad. This railroad, which extends from Nashville north to the Kentucky line, forming the Tennessee part of the line from Henderson to Nashville, was sold on the Otli inst to the American Contract Company, which leases and operates tho Kentucky part of that line, i. «., the Evansvllie, Henderson and Nashville Railroad, so that now the line from the Ohio River to Nashville is under one management, which is the more important now that a continuous line is opened from Chicago to Evansvillo. — Bnrllneton and IHIsaonrI River Railroad. This railroad has been making an important branch this season, aijont which very little has been said. This is a line from Creston, lows, 190 miles west of Burlington, southwest 40 miles to Hopkins, tbe present northern terminus of the Maryville branch of the Kansas City, St. Joseph and Council Bluffs Railroad on the Missouri line. This branch extends due south to St. Joseph, 01 miles, and it, in connection witli the other roads named and tlie Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, will form a new route from Chicago to St. 4UiJ miles long, which is only 29 miles longer than the present route by way of Quincy and the Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad. It will, too, afford a route to Atchison 518 miles long, to Leavenworth 543 miles, and to Kansas City 508 miles long, all over lines liarmoniously managed—ia abort, all "Joy" roads. The whole ot the grading of the branch which will complete this line is done, and half of the track was to be laid early this month, when it was promised that trains should be running by Without any through traffic tbe line the 1st of December. should be valuable. The sales of Burlington and Missouri River Railroad lands in Iowa during the month of October, 1S71, were 287 83-100 acres, at an average price of $11 1^3^ pur acre, amounting to $33,985 55.

Wheat has been very unsettled. On Monday, with free receipts, dull accounts Irom abroad, and higher ocean freights. No. 3 spring •old at $1 40@1 40, but on Tuesday the probable detention of a million bushels on the canal by ice caused a withdrawal of samples, and on Wednesday No. 8 Chicago sold at |1 .50, with some speculative demand for amber winter, but common red winter was freely oflered and sold both Tuesday and Wednesdaj at $1 58 @1 00. The stock of wheat in this market cannot be much lees than five million bushels, but there is a remarkable falling off in receipts at all points. To-day holders were firm, but buyers would not respond, although tavored by a decline of 2d. in ocean freights; $1 50 was bid and f 1 53 asked for No. 3 Chicago, with one boat load reported sold at $1 51. The market was generally dull and prices nominal. Indian corn declined on Tuesday to 77c. for prime old mixed afloat, but at the close of Wednesday's report 79c. was paid. New mixed has come forward in moderate quantities by rail, and sold 75@77*c. Yellow and white quiet. To-day old Western mixed sold moderately at TO^c, with some at 80c., afloat, and a boat load of new white Southern at 80c. Rye has been dull.

In fact, the views of many holders who were very much inclined to realize on the late advance w^heuevor an opportunity occurred have been fully verified, and the demand, instead of keeping up a show of life, has at once dropped the moment that buyers secured a few necessary supplies, and most of the goods now called for are in the way of small odd lots to satisfy the urgent necessities of the hour. The intervening holiday has had some tendency to reduce the volume of business, but six full business days would probably made very little difference in the aggregate of sugars evidently were not wanted by any class of buyers.

The demand most certainly is without life and quite spasmodic in its character, but still refiners can occasionally be induced to operate to some extent, and a few calls are uow and then made on Trade account, and if the prospects of light arrivals are verified, it is not unreasonable to suppose that most desirable parcels can be placed. The caution of buyers, hoviever, indicates the necessity of keeping terms pretty easy, and no advance is hinted at, while to secure s good customer slight concessions are frequently made. On the domestic grade the position has been weak. There is scarcely any of the old crop left, and what there is proves mostly undesirable, while of the new crop the arrivals have been pretty free receivers offered their consignments readily and prices gave way, some grades showing a falling ofi'of fully 10c, per gallon since onrlast, though at the decline there a]ipears to be a little more steadiness.

CUFFEG. Quite a decided change has taken place in the status of this market since our last and the previou.sIy noted dull and somewhat sluggish tone has given place to a feeling of much buoyancy at times some little excitement with prices generally higher. The call has been from both first and second hands and to some extent speculative bnycrs apparently accepting the situation willingly, and much confidence now apjjcaring to prevail on all sides and the present advance it is thought can be sustained with greater ease than the im- provement early in the Fall, Brazil grades attractive style for operators and of these large The have as nsual been the most amounts have changed hands at stimulus was obtained from a more favorable telegram at hand immediately following our last, buyers at once commencing operations and taking abont all the desirable lots to be obtained, a portion to be held on speculation but the bulk going to the Trade. The force of this influence has in part expended itself and with additional cost of coffee, there is now naturally a little more caution shown in the bids. Holders, however, without exception, feel very strong and "bullish" in their ideas and seem well assured of their ability to fully maintain the market, in view of the small and well concentrated accumulation, owned by importers, and the fact that jobbers nearly all holding high-priced sui)plies will find it to their i nterest to lend a supporting influence. At the outports there has also been a very good business doing with a corresponding firmness on values. Java has not changed to any decided extent, a fair margin already being shown for importers and comiiaratively easy rates proving necessary as an offset to competing grades. For West India styles, however, there has been a good demand and at higher rates, the market closing strong generally with many of the best parcels withdrawn for a further advance. The sales here embrace 23.670 bags Rio and Santos, including 4,778 bags from Europe 7,4.')0 bags Maracaibo 2,650 bags Costa Rica; 2,100 bags Jamaica; 325 bags Savanilla; 34 bags Cnracoa ; 500 mats Java; 2,093 do. before arrival.

Later advices from the East Indies report not only a conlinued firmer feel. ing, but actual contracts made at rates relatively higher than anything current here, and this Is used by holders as a reason for insisting upon extreme fi jiures and offering goods sparingly. On the other hand, however, at some of the principal European distributing markets the position is sIo5v and lame, and goods in many cases can be brought over from the other side at less cost than onr leading holders at this point are willing to accept, This has Itept ttia wbo)««»l9 imM ia A duU oondltion, tboDgli ilte (tpprooob or tbe «nd of tlif ' : : Dooembflr THE rHRONirLE. 1871.] 2, yiynr iiatiirnlly rpdiiiiB ilii' *i>xl>'ly Ui luiiidli' Aiiy Johherft oiit**tAntlln(;iiLTf>tiiit'> ari' (uljuiiti'tl. corifinil hiiKlni'K^ niul reaionably stiuKly tone on morl former itbniil ri'nll/.liiu K<xi<l'< yery l*r)ia itmnnnU h(ivi> hi*(*i) doliii; ii 747 RlM. until III* aacMo, 4rMM4, (014 fair Atitl prntly marknt •linwlng n blilii wcra qnirkly ar It bead lx« tH\0»t«ttm» IW4 » r»tp«, tlin tliongh all full .|oM V CAtAta. tn lb.

Dec. 1, ICTl, Tlie natural dulness of this period of tbe soaDon hag beoii ren. dercd more marked this week by tlio occtirrcnco of the annaal Thanksgiving day. Tbe weather has been cold throastbout the country and a more active retail distribution has been the result. West are sendinf; in some orders, and there is packnpe trade doing with the larger Western town*. It was generally expected that the advance in Westward freights would not occur until after the Ist inst., and Western dealers were preparing to make heavy shipments this week at the low rates. The advanci; on Monday last prevented this, however, and their purchases have been of such small amounts only as their immediate wants required. Tbe demand from the South has been comparatively small and few orders from that section are coming in. Xear-by dealers are doing a fair business and are ordering Retailers at the a'so a fair limited amounts in well assorted lots. The cold weather has been decidedly beneficial to the city retail trade, especially in worsted and other winter goods. Jobbers report a fair distribution for this season of the year, but agents little in any class of goods, as package buyers are are doing very in view of the near new year. Domestic Cotton Goods.— There have been no marked ajiproach of tbe varia- any class of cotton fabrics during the paat week. Low grade brown cottons are selling with a fair degree of activity and are fully sustained. There is less demand for standard or fine browns, but prices seem to be fully as ste.idy as was noted a few weeks since. Bleached cottons are in very moderate demand in all grades. The supply is liber 1 and prices are, to some extent, nominal, although there are few quotable changes. Prints sell fairly for this period, and stocks are kept well under control, owing to the decreased production. There were rumors early in tions in prices in the week that a decline in prices was likely to take place, bnt we cannot learn that there is any probability of such a movement. On the contrary dealers declare the market firm, at the current Print cloths are very firm and tlioro is an upward quotations. tendency to prices. Full 64xtM'3 on the spot nre in veiy small supply, and holders are asking 7|@7ilc. Contracts are firm at 7i(a8c., and are only taken for late deliveries. Colored cotton goods are steady but remain withont special inquiry. Canton flannels are iluU but the light stocks are held at nominally an• changed prices. Domestic Wooi.IN Qoods.—There is a bettor demand for worsted and some of the lighter descriptions of woolen fabrics, but the general trade lacks spirit, except with retail dealers. iii9 9U t^iaiOl Heavy fancy cassimeres are dull, and prices are nominal.
