This distrust, if it be unfounded,

The deficiencies in the reserve, of which so much has
been said, are reported to have been small, and, if so,
the announcement of the facts, with the name of each bank,
and the amount of its default, would have at once
reassured the public mind.
On this account it is to

In the example of the Central Park we already have seen
how much may be accomplished by a liberal commission,

been carried out, from its waste and desolate beginning to
its present condition of beauty and use and comfort, is the
most satisfactory illustration to which we can point of the

proved to be what the world had long since forgotten, the
construction of highways through mountains and avenues
beneath the surface of the earth appears to be able to main¬
tain its claim to originality.
Former engineering skill con¬
veyed water over chasms by expensive aqueducts; and the
cau«ey of King Solomon and the roads of the Incas of Peru,
are
examples of the former progress in this art of making
way over the gulfs which are sometimes apparently im¬
passable. But the present method is bolder and more aggres¬
sive.
Iustead of “ overturning mountains from their roots,”
they are pierced through their very centre. Chicago has
done a greater feat; that of burrowing under the bed of
Lake Michigan for a distance of two miles, to obtain a sup
ply of water pure from the contaminations of foreign mat-,
ters, and ample for the wants of the millions that are yet to
make up the population.
London has descended below the
surface of the earth to excavate a thoroughfare, and even
bridged the river Thames from beneath for the purpose.
Now, the people of Chicago are preparing another tunnel
under their river, and the capitalists of England are estimat¬
ing the feasibility of a tunnel and railway under the Channel
from Great Britain to France.
In a former geological period
the sites of London and Paris wTere under the same lake;
how great the contrast if they should be' connected by a
subterranean and subaqueous railway.
Mr. Hawkshaw, one of the most successful engineers of
the United Kingdom, has actually employed two1 years upon
an
investigation into the subject of effecting a submarine
passage across the English Channel. Borings Iiave been
made in the neighborhood of Dover, and likewise between
Calais and Boulogue, and also in the mid-channel, to* ascertain
the geological structure of the crust of the
earth,, and the
practicability of the enterprise. We have not hear *d of his
conclusions; but he proposes the construction of a tupuel




growth of the city. The tunnel was
obtained by the amended charter of Chicago,, approved Feb¬
ruary 13th, 1863, and by act of Congress, approved January
16th, 1864. A Board of Public Works was created, with
power to carry it into effect. The contract was awarded for
$315,139; and the ground selected for the commencement of
the work at the foot of Chicago Avenue. Ground was broken

that the entire perforation will be completed in three years
more, and that the tunnel will be passable from one end to
the other on the 1st day of January, 1870.
There lies an obstacle, however, in the way of the con¬
struction of these tunnels which bids fair to preclude future
undertakings of the sort. They are too costly for private
enterprise to undertake them. The tunnel through the Alps
would never have been undertaken except for the boldness
of Count Cavour, backed by the treasury of the Sardinian,
afterward the Italian Government, aided by subventions from

There will be two passage-ways for trains,
high, and in the part under
the river will be also a passage way to be reached by stairs
at each end.
The project is the first of the kind ever at¬
tempted in the United States.
In London the tunnelling enterprise has been perfectly
successful. There were engineering difficulties to overcome
such as are hardly to be expected elsewhere, the expansive
character of the clay, the frequent occui rence of beds of sand
and gravel, the sewers and drains—particularly the Great
Fleet sewer, the gas and water pipes, the Grand Junction
Canal, etc. But it was done at a total cost of $14,000,000,
or $5,500,000
per mile, including the outfitting and stocking
of the railway. The enterprise yields dividends; 5 per cent
in 1863; 6£ in 1864, and 7 per cent in 1865.
The number
of passengers carried in the first six months of 1863 was
4,823,457; in six months of 1864, 5,104,385; in six months
of 1865, 7,462.823; i#six months of 1866, 10,303,305.
The revenue has increased; in the first six months of 1863
it was £53,058, and in the first six months of the present
year, £102,947. These figures would seem to demonstrate
the feasibility of the proposed tunnel under Broadway as a
remunerative enterprise.
The excavation of mountains to permit the carrying
through them of railroad tracks is now a matter of every
day occurrence. We may very properly denominate this
the Tunnel Age. The Appenines of Italy, the mountains oi
Provence, the numerous hills of England and Wales have
as

The Hoosac Tunnel would have been abandoned

by the company undertaking it but for the aid granted by the
State of Massachusetts. The improvements in the construc¬
tion of railways and rolling-stock enable the ascent of moun¬
tains to be made.
A road has already been constructed over
Mont Cenis, and is about ready for travel. A part of it
which has been already completed on the slope along the car¬
riage road was passed over by a train consisting of several
carriages at a rate of 11 miles an hour in ascending, and 9£
in coming down. The incline sometimes attains 8£ feet in
the one hundred, and some of the turnings have a radius of
only 133 feet.
Great as the importance of those projections will be to
travel and commerce, there is likelihood that future undertakings of this character will be superseded by improvements
in railway construction. It has been suggested by engineers that a railroad over
Hoosac Mountain would be feasible, which would, if it did
not supersede altogether the occasion for the completing of
the tunnel, answer for use till that event should take place.

It is probably unnecessary to pursue this inquiry further. The figures
which are the subject of criticism are of course unofficial, and are ob¬

expect to find inaccuracies at times; but it would appear, from the
facts given above, that it is quite thoroughly done, and will command the
confidence of the trade in the future as in the past. We have not
noticed the outside remarks of the Argus Editor, being nnwilling to
spoil his delight over his “ ludicrous ” discoveries. Still, it may be some

RECEIPTS OF BREADSTUFFS AT NEW YORK.
The

Albany Argus, a few weeks since, published a statement show¬
ing that the shipments of breadstuffs by tows from that city were very
much larger than the published receipts at this market from that direc¬
tion. One of our reporters, in his weekly breadstuffs report, saw fit to
notice this statement, and to account for the discrepancy in part by one
or two facts which appeared to have escaped the notice of the writer in
the Argus, First, our reporter claimed that a considerable portion of
the shipments from Albany are to other markets, through the Morris and
Essex canal, and second, that another portion is laden on board schooners
which, on reaching this city, proceed direct to various New England
ports, Ac. Of course, if a part of the shipments published by the Argus
take the direction indicated, they should have been deducted by the
writer in that paper from his statement, and all that was claimed in the
Oheoniclx was that they were not deducted, and that the discrepancy

the position of prices is less favorable than was the case
at this period
last week. The failures at present recorded are
not, however, of any
great importance, and the liabilities, even in the aggregate, reach a
very
moderate total. One or two old-established firms

he would be enabled to exercise a much more thorough and vigilant supervis¬

come to my knowledge through the press.
Some of the banks so reported have
voluntarily made statements showing that their failures to comply with the law
was temporary, and has since been amended.
It is possible that as clearing
houses are recognized in section 31 that the managers of these institutions in
Boston, New York and Philadelphia might be required to report weekly to the
Comptroller of ihe Currency all hanks that exhibited a deficiency im the reserve
of lawful money, and that the effect of such a requirement would be salutary. I

The Gold Market.—The downward

tendency in gold has been

points from
our last quotation.
The prevailing view on the market is that
there is nothing at present to sustain the premium, while all the
elements controlling the price appear to favor lower quotations ;
continued

during the week, the price having fallen four

bf speculation runs in one direction
the movement is naturally excessive.
Perhaps during no week since
the close of the war has the volume of speculative transaction?
equalled that of the last s'x days. The clearances of gold to-day a'
the Gold Exchange Bank reached the immense total of SI 23,000,000.
The demand for customs duties is quite nominal.
Foreign ex¬
change is weak, and ranges 1± per cent, below the rate at which
specie could be advantageously shipped. Bond3 in Europe keep so
nearly on a par with the quotations of this market that it is fouud
impracticable to import 5-20’s. The activity in the Liverpool cot¬
ton market raises the expectations of a large export of cotton-, while
the reduction in the Bank of England rate of discount encourages
the anticipation of continued firmness in this staple.
At the same
time, the Treasury will disburse at the beginning of nex,t month
about 310.000,000 of coin upon coupons due Jan. 1st.
These are
'the principal considerations which contribute to the present weak¬
ness of the premium ; and, judging from the present tone of the
market, it would scarcely appear that they have had their full effect.
The market i3 constantly largely oversold ; but there are not opera
tors bold enough to attempt “ to corner the shorts.”
Loans have
been made to-day “ flat” to J per cent, per day.
The following have been the highest and iowest quotations for
gold on each of the last six days:
and when the whole current

the weather very favorable to packing operations.

siderable decline from the highest point, towards the close.
The market is subject to speculative manipulations, and quota¬
tions of spirits turpentine and rosins vary almost hourly.
Fruits have been in light demand.
At a material decline
there have been large sales of dry cod, mackerel, herring, and
other fish. Hops have become very dull, and must be quoted
lower.
Hides have slightly improved in gold prices,, with a
very light stock on sale. Tallow has declined.
Whiskey re¬
mains quite unsettled, the receipts are largely increased.
Wool is slightly more active, and in some Provincial markets
there has been a large business.
Freights have been irregular. The offerings of cotton* for
Liverpool have been so large as to cause an advance in rates,.;
and by causing a need for ballast, lower rates are made ^
for grain and other weight.

from the foregoing that the receipts at tide-water are
receipts at the five Western lake ports
before mentioned. The amount of grain making up this difference has
been shipped to other lake ports by lake and some by rail to points
It appears

88,000,000 bushels less than the

ontside not destined for New York.
There have been exported this year

from Montreal by sea going ships

foreign countries 6,439,239 bushels of grain and 158,479 bbls. of
flour, a considerable portion of which came from Lake Michigan ports.
Tge Milwaukee Wheat Trade.—The following is from the Circular
of Geo. I. Jones it Co., of Milwaukee :
The last shipment of the season by lake having been made, a brief
review of the wheat business at t is port, since the beginning of the
year, seems appropriate. The season has been a remarkable one in many
respects. Never before, probably, has the attentiou of operators in
all quarters of the country been so generally directed to this market,
and, probably, at no previous time has Spring wheat entered into such
general consumption, and in very few seasons have prices fluctuated so
widely, and reached so high. The Spring wheat crop of 1865, in the
country supplying the market, was of unusually fine quality, and very
abundant, while in other sections the quality was inferior, and the
to

yield light, This, in connection with the almost complete failure in
many States of the Winter wheat crops of 1865 and 1866,caused buyers
to flock here in great numbers during the Spring and Summer, and the
transactions were very large, botii for shipment and speculation. The
shipping demand was constant and vigorous, but the ordeis were chiefly
from milling points, the inquiry from the seaboard beirg extremely
limited, owing to the European markets ruling relatively lower than
those in this country. The great scarcity of Winter Wheat compelled
a
very large number of millers and consumers, who had previously been
much prejudiced against Spring Wheat, and who had never before used
it, to consume it freely, and the result has been to.overcome their objec¬
tions. Many of the operators who came to this city for the purpose of
buying and speculating, were from Ohio, Indiana, and other Winter
Wheat States, and their actual observations of the short supply at home
gave them great confidence in high prices, and decided advantage over
others loss informed in regard to the wants of the country at large.
The speculative transactions during the Fall months were less numer¬
ous than earlier in the season, but the demand for shipment and
milling wa9 strong and active, and scarcely slacked at any time from
harvest to the close of navigation.
oe Spring wheat crop in this quar¬
ter this year was apparently in a must flourishing condition up to the
second week in August, and promised to be heavier than ever before,
and of very superior quality. The high expectations of a crop of more
than usual magnitude were, however, suddenly overthrown by the dis¬
astrous storm that occurred about the time harvesting began. This
storm was soon followed by almost continuous wet weather for nearly
six weeks. TLe yield, instead of being ^0 to 80 bushels per acre, as was
generally expected, probably did not exceed an average of 12 bushels.
The rains caused the wheat to sprout in the field and stack, so much so
that about 80 per cent, of the crop was rendered unsound. On threshing
it was found that the extreme heat of July had shriveled the berries badly
In consequence, only about oue eighth of the crop thus farmirket- d has
been heavy enough to inspect as No. 1. This is in great contract to last
year, the proportion of No. 1 in the eutire crop then being rather more
than three-quaiter8. This year the proportion of No. 2 has been fully
fifty per cent. For the purpose of separating more carefully the
sprouted and damaged wheat from the sound, a new grade was estab¬
lished and called No. 3 Spring, and of this quality the proportion thus
far has been about one quarter. The impression is that the great bulk
of the daraged wheat has a ready been marketed. The proportion
of rejected thus far has been about one-eighth. Notwithstanding this
year’s crop has graded io much below that of last year, it has met with
ready sale, and the farmers have probably realized nearly as
much as last season. The soundness of the policy of strictly maintain¬
ing our well known and reliable standards of inspection has been
evidenced ail through the year by the comparatively high figures our
grades huve commanded in this and other markete. Our grades of No
1 and No. 2, though of not quite as handsome outward appearance as
last eeascD, have met with much favor, and been pronounced by millers

el 9 were received. The emallest receipts in any one month were in
March. The receipts for the year would have been considerably larger
but for the fact that a much greater quantity than usual was taken
from Minnesota and Iowa by river to St Louis, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh,
and other points on the Mississippi and Ohio.
The shipments from 1st January to date aggregate about 11,600
bushels. Of this quantity about 700,000 bushels went

forward by rail¬

The quantity taken for Cleveland,
Toledo and Sandusky shows how important that branch of the business
was.
The season of lake navigation opened on 28th April, the first
shipments passing through the Straits of Mackinaw that day. The last
shipment was on 1st December. The season thus extended over 217
days. In several previous years propellers have left here for Buffalo as
late as 10th December, and in 1861 a propeller sailed from here for
that port on 21st December, and met with no detention.
The stock in store at no time during the season has been allowed to
accumulate as heavily as in many previous years. The stock in store
at date is reported as 318,409 bushels.
The receipts are now only
averaging about 7,500 bushels per day, and as the requirements of our
city mills, when running full time, are about 12,000 bushels daily, the
accumulation is n^t likely to be very rapid—especially if the demand for
shipment by rail should continue, unless the arrivals increase materially
There is considerable diversity of opinion as to the probable quantity
still to come forward. The general impression, however, is that there
is much less m this section than at this time last year. The total range
of prices for the season has been $1 16 to $2 25 on No. 1 Spring. The
Winter Wheat crop in this section usually bears but a very small pro¬
portion to that Spring Wheat. The former being a decided failure this
year, the transactions have been very small, and we have kept no re¬
road,

steady price of gold, the market was firmer up to yesterday, since
which time there has been a good business, but prices are less firm. The
sales of the week are reported at 5,700 hhd. and 766 boxes Havana.
Refined is in fair demand at steady figures.
The imports of sugar have been small for the week, the details, as

profitable, this Company will hereafter make such
cash abatement or discount from the current rates,
