foreign market where in all probability
good proportion of them were soon be absorbed. For before
the 5 years life-time of these bonds has elapsed there will
probably be no government bonds to be purchased at par, and
even now there are none to be
had, yielding six per cent, in¬
terest on the capital invested in them.
The supposition that
these bonds could in any degree aid .the negotiation of the
new four
per cents of the funding bill was of course untenable
as the latter are
long gold honds, andr are besides to be nego¬
tiated at par in gold, while the former are 5 year currency
bonds, and are offered at 7£ per cent, below par in currency.
Mr. Boutwell’s schedule informs us that these new five-year
bonds or certificates of indebtedness as they are styled on
their face, were authorized under the law of 8th July, 1870.
It is claimed to be a better arrangement for us to pay such
debts in four per cent, currency bonds than in cash so long as
the Treasury is able to call in and cancel its six per cent, long
gold bonds for the sinking funds at the current prices.
The policy of buying up and cancelling our gold bonds
has been carried on very satisfactorily up to this time*
During the month of November the gold bearing sixes dimin¬
ished from 1,731 millions to 1,724 millions, and the aggre¬
gate of the debt exhibits a decrease of no less than $7,475,860.
Although, therefore, our people object on principle to
the issue of Government bonds, or to the increase of the
national debt, for subsidies or lor ordinary purposes, or for
any new disbursements to railroads, steamships, or other cor¬
porations still in the case of these old war claims, a conces¬
sion may perhaps be made if we exact and enforce the con¬
dition that the exception be not drawn into a rule or converted
into a precedent for future less defensible claims. The nation
has watched with too much anxiety the headlong growth of
the debt and its hopeful liquidation, to tolerate with patience
any policy looking to its increase by subsidies. Aud not to
the people only would any reversal of the policy of liquida¬
ting the debt be distasteful, but to the Administration also#
For this retrograde movement would violate the fundamental
principle of Mr. Boutwell’s system, who has paid of the bonded
debt in principal, interest and premium almost 190 million#
since he took office in March, 1868. There is, therefore, we
hope, but little ground for the opinion of those persons who
have argued from the issue of this small amount of war bonds
to the State of Massachusetts, that we are to expect other
similar issues of a prodigious amount, to the score of
hungry corporations whose public-spirited emissaries are
already gathering in Washington, clamorous for Government

REVIEW OP THE MONTH.
The business of November has been, on
the whole, steadier and
satisfactory than might have been expected. With theeffecta
upon our trade and exchange of the great war waging on the
continent, and with the close danger of a second, involving probably
five of the principal powers of Europe, it might very reasonably
have been supposed that affairs on ibis side would have drifted into
something like panicj; fortunately, however, our people, while not
insensible 'to the §danger have preserved their composure, and the
markets have fluctuated little, compared with the gravity of the
situation. Indeed, past .experience has so strikingly shown that,
under our presen ^currency system, we are to a large extent pro¬
tected against the convulsions of the European money markets, that
our people have learnt to receive foreign financial crises with com¬
parative composure, and the effects are chiefly confined to one or
two staples of export, to the gold premium and to the value of those

It will be
that the increase is

sioner Delano assures us that it is still steadily going on at
the rate of about $600,000 every month; so that even the
present tax on tobacco has not yet nearly reached the limit
of its productiveness. The officers of the revenue are however
beset with difficulty in their work.

of leaf tobacco, unmanufactured, so much insisted on by a
former report ot the Internal Revenue office, goes but a very
short way to explain the difference; and only the systematic
use of old stamped packages for refilling, and of old stamps
by dishonest manufacturers and dealers, together with the
underhand sales of unstamped goods, and the constant
undervaluation in amount of product, and in the class of
smoking tobacco, can account for it.

caution, for with all the uncertainties of the future, no merchant dare

Hme* give the true state of affjirs in regard to a disputed question :
Boston, Nov. 30.—-There appears to be a very needless panic in
Union Pacific securities, which was startei on «.cponnt of a rumor from
Washington that the Secretary of the Treasury will refuse to pay the
oor-halfof the earnings for Government transportation. No c .mmumeation of the kind has been received by the Company from Mr. Boutwell.
The ameii'led act of Congress, passed in 1864, is very explicit upon the
subject. The fifth section declares that 41 only Q%e-haUf of the com¬
pensation fur services rendered for the Government by said companies
shall be required to be applied to the payment of the bonds issued by
the Government and iu aid of the c nstruction of said road.” The
amount, however, is not a matter of vital interest to the road, although
at present, while its earnings are small, compared with its future pros¬
pects, it is a convenience to the Company. The whole amount of
earnings on the transportation of freight ami mails for the Government
for the year ending July, 1870, was $657,945 36, and the half received
$328,972 68. The community may feel no sort of apprehension

In the prevailing dullness of the markets a momentary interest
has been created among the dealers in governments by the

ance of a four

amount
(little over $600,000), was authorized at the last session of
Congress, to pay an old outstanding claim of the States of Maine

assigned to the European and North American Railway, by the

a
hardening tendency, the rate on call loans
having advanced to 5@7 per cent, against 4@6 per cent at tlie
opening. This change of tone appears to be due mainly to the
pork movement, which usually causes at this season a demand for
currency from the West.
Remittances have been made each day
this week to Cincinnati, and the condition of the market there in¬
dicates that still further amounts will be called for. It is
probable,
however, that remittances to Cincinnati this season will fall below
j the usual amount; first, because of the
i
'
low price of pork, and
further from the fact that, owing to the low
price of cotton, the
payments to the South through that centre are likely to fall below
the average.
The remittances of currency to all other points are
quite nominal. The market, however, is sensitive to any move¬
ment which is calculated to
deplete the stock of legal tenders in
the banks, which now stands at $51,800,000 ;
although this amount
exceeds that at the same period of last
year by $3,700,000.
The

Bonds.—State stocks have been
com
paratively quiet, and with some exceptions steady. The chief
feature has been in Virginias, which have been quite active, and
have advanced from 64, our last quotation, to 65£, subsequently,
however, falling off. North Carolinas also have been firmer.
South Carolinas have been sold freely, and declined fully one per
cent.
Tennessees have been steady. There was a remarkable
decline early in the week in the stock and bonds of the Union
Pacific Railroad, which was wholly unwarranted by any circum¬
stance having to do with the value of these securities. The semi¬
panic was caused by some unimportant controversy among parties
heavily interested in the Company’s stock and bonds; but as it
occurred simultaneously with erroneous reports from Washington
in regard to the action of Secretary Boutwell, in compelling pay¬
ment of interest by the Pacific
Railroads, a false impression was
very generally given.
Secretary Boutwell, we believe, has done
no more than to ask the
opinion of the Attorney General as to
whether he has the right to retain the whole amount due to the
roads for Government transportation instead of half that amount,
as heretofore.
Although the letter and spirit of the Pacific Rail¬
road law, as well as popular sentiment, all seem to favor the roads
on this
question, it is one which, if decided against them, would
not be of sufficient moment to
materially affect the value of their
securities.
Central Pacifies have been firm. We understand that
the Company have means on hand sufficient to
pay all their back
interest advanced by .the Government.

should then be no further weekly excess, the crop
would reach less than 3,000,000 bales.”
The figures were written 3,500,000 bales, and should have been
so printed.
Weather Reports by Telegraph.—Our reports to-night by
telegraph of the weather during the week indicate that there has
been more or less rain, although not as unfavorable as the previous
week. At Memphis, Savannah, Charleston, Macon, Montgomery,
&c., we have two rainy days reported. At Columbus our corres¬
pondent reports that the weather there has been warm, sultry and
wet; Mobile was rainy the early part of the week, but the latter
part was pleasant; Galveston and Nashville have had one rainy
day; Selma has been warm and dry all the week. The thermom¬
eter has averaged at Columbus and Selma 62, at Montgomery 54,
Macon 52, Mobile 58, Charleston 55, Memphis 55 and Galveston 60.

year,
and the weather has certainly thus far been satisfactory. But bales,
it should be remembered that last year
the season also opened with
excellent prospects. As the cotton Commission, Harry Rivett-Carnac,
in his annual report dated June 25,1870, says : “ there was just
enough sun and rain.” But when the plant was in flower the
heavy rain in Central India and the Northwestern Provinces came,
and damp cloudy weather was continued until the end of March.
As a result not only was considerable damage done directly by the
rain, but the plant suffered more severely still from the ravages of
the boll worm, which never before was regarded with much
anxiety in Central India. In view therefore of these facts in the :
history of the past season, it of course will not do to be too san-j
guine with regard to the yield of this crop, and yet the two points
referred to above would appear to be established—firsts that the
land under cotton does not differ materially from last year, and
second that the season has opened very favorably.

not ask them to risk any money themselves, but as they attacked us, we merely
challenge them to show their hand if they dare, and if they succeed they will have
thopleasure of giving the Orphan Asylum a Christmas present.

against 16,366 bales lest

Very few really new features
styles of goods embraced in this review. During the week ending
to-night there has been few sales for actual consumption at pre.
sent, but the regular buyers, such as jobbers, spice grinders,
sugar
refiners, etc., have bought fairly of goods in bond to be prepared
for any wants between date and January 1st, and also to
gain any
benefit that may arise with the reduction of duty. Prices
generally
have ruled strong but without any violent fluctuation. A

grocery house has been obliged to suspend since our last, owing it

a generally firm and

thereby reduced the available stock. This
in view7 of the probabilities of an exhausted
supply before much of the new crop can possibly get here, and an almost
certainty that larger amounts of refined sugars will be wanted by the time the
refiners are ready to resume
operations. Grinding has already commenced in
some districts on the Island of
Cuba, but is not by any means general as yet,
and there is very little doubt but that the
production will he considerably
delayed and somewhat reduced. We have on hand here a large stock of bag
sugars, but the quality is low and undesirable, and not likely to greatly influ¬
ence the market.
Recent advices from the South
report iD jury to the domestic
crop by frost to an extent sufficient to materially reduce the supply, but our
dealers do not pay much attention to this
information; and it will require a
very radical change, indeed, in the prospect to affect the market, as all contin¬
gencies have already been pretty thoroughly discounted. From the grocery
trade the call has been very
light, and confined to one or two small parcels of
choice clarified goods, some of which are used as a substitute for refined.
Refined have sold slowly as a rule, and the
advantage principally in buyers’

For a day or two following our last
report there appeared to be just
the least
bit of weakness on Brazil styles, but it did not
amount to more than
an a
pearance as the market has again become very firm on
desirable parcels with
little or nothing offering.
Strictly prime samples and ordinary
grades con¬
tinue to attract the largest share of
attention, hut medium qualities
were
showing greater steadiness than heretofore. The unsold stock has
become
much reduced and with prospective light
additions, for some little time im
porters gain confidence and are not at all anxious to operate.
The current
demand is still almost entirely of a legitimate
character, though a greater por
tion of the jobbing trade instead of
withdrawing goods are now allowing their
invoices to remain in bond until wanted, or if
necessary to carry over into the
new year.
Baltimore has been rather quiet and without new
features in the
general position of affairs. Java is a little more plenty in first
hands, and the
stock held by jobbers is becoming somewhat
reduced, but as the demand at
present is moderate, the market shows few interesting points
beyond a con
tinued business and. extreme figures in all cases insisted
upon. The West
India styles have of late been much neglected, and the

prices current of late have stimulated a demand for Raisins, and the
consumption for the month of November reported to be larger than ever known
before, said to have reached 150,000 boxes. London Layers are scarce, and
consequently held high compared with other kinds. Currants are very firmly
held, though transactions have not been liberal. Turkish Prunes are selling
freely at former quotations. Citron meets with a good demand, and prices are
without particular change since our last. Sardines are dull, and prices are
lower and weak. Nuts meet with a good demand, and prices rule firm, and for
some kinds we note an improvement, especially Walnuts.
West India Green Fruits are in full supply, and prices are comparatively low
several cargoes have arrived since our last and sold at $1 per hunch for Baracoa Bananas, $2@3 50 for Aspinwall do.
Baracoa Cocoanuts $60 per M.
OrangeB range from $5 to $8 per bbl., with sales footing up about 1,000 bbls. of
the different kinds. Mediterranean box fruit is less plenty, and sells from
store at $5@6 per box for Lemons.
Domestic dried are generally quiet for Apples, and no change in prices or
transactions of importance can he noted. Pared Peaches are, if prime, wanted,
and command extreme prices ; unpared halves are again scarce, and rule
higher, with sales at the advance ; quarters are dull and nominal. Blackberries
are without
important features to note. Cherries are slightly easier. Peanuts
are in active
demand, and Virginias are recovering from the late inactivity and
low prices; Wilmingtons are scarce and ^wanted; sales are made to arrive
Tennessees have shown the most activity, sales yesterday and to-day footing
npover 2,400 bushels, ranging from $1 40 to $1 60 per bushel. Pecans, with
advices from some sections that the crop is a failure, have shown more
activity, and close firm.
The market for Apples is fairly active, but the demand is almost exclusively
from the city and trade near by us. If stock is prime it is generally held with
much confidence, hut poor lots showing Bigns of decay are disposed of at low
prices. The stock held in this city is large, and no advance on even the best
kinds need be expected. Cranberries are slow of sale, as the price is above
the views of most
buyers. Lots, if sound, are generally held at $12@15 per
bbl.; but some that become poor have to be sold at $8@10. Grapes are loss
plenty, but are in no great demand. Catawba sell at 12@16c. per lb., if prime.
Canned goods are fairly active.

The
There is nothing really new to advise on this market, all goods remaining
quite firm, and the supply available comparatively small, as the recent arrivals
were largely sold ahead and went directly into the hands of jobbers or grind¬
ers. The consumption just now is small, and will probably continue so until
the end of the year, but the belief in good trade during January is still current,
and stock in bond has plenty of friends at full prices. Cassia and Nutmegs
are very firm, with good sound lots of the latter very scarce, and Pepper is sus¬
tained without much difficulty, though the latter rather lacks bouyancy. Sales

improvement in the trade, as compared with that
of the previous week, and at the close there is a fair business
doing. The business naturally shows a falling of as the season
draws to a close, but there is as much doing in all departments as
could be expected so late in the season, and we hear no complaints
of unusual dullness.
The State, New Jersey, and interior Penn¬
We not© some

:
sylvania trade have been in the market during the week in con¬
siderable numbers, and have taken fair quantities of the season¬
able fabrics, suited to their respective localities. The Southern
order trade ” has also improved somewhat, and the principal
houses doing a heavy business with that section report a rather
better business than is usual at this season. This, however, is
due to the unusual dullnes which prevailed during October and
the early part of November, and to the many interruptions which
have occurred to the distributing trade in the Gulf States, The
Southwestern trade are sending in some orders, and the West is
fairly active, though with the latter section the demand is chiefly
from package buyers, the bulk of the jobbing trade evidently
being kept in the Western cities by the jobbers there.
No failures are reported here, and comparatively few have oc_
curred in the interior. We hear of an occasional small house in
the country, being forced to succumb, but these are rare, and the
trade apparently continues in a very healthy financial condition.
Domestic Cotton Goods.—There have been very few changes
in the cotton goods trade since our last report, either in prices or
the extent of the business done. There has been a good demand
for unbleached cottons of all grades, and the prices of most makes
continue well sustained. There has been a marked lack of ani¬
mation in the demand for bleached cottons for some time past, and
the accumulation of surplus stock, though slow, has tendered to
weaken prices.
One or two brands have been marked down, and
in other instances agents have made the terms of sale easier,
without changing the nominal quotations. Jobbers, however, have
named lower prices, and on some makes there has been a decline
of 1 cent per yard. Prints are not very spirited, but the trade is,
perhaps, fully up to expectations. The stock in first hands is
light, and excepting the light stock of undesirable goods, there
will be but a small amount carried through the winter.
Prices
remain without change.
Domestic Woolen Goods.—The woolen trade continues dull,
with few sales beyond the actual requirements of the trade. Cassimeres in old styles and light weights are selling to clothiers, but
in fresh goods the demand is still feeble. Cloths are quiet, but
there appears to be a demand for all the goods made. The agents
for one of the leading mills engaged in the manufacture of these
goods, assures us that their receipts of goods from the mills, which
were all that could be made on the present supply of water, have
been, during the past four weeks, less than forty per cent of what
they received during the corresponding period last season/ We
are also informed that the production of nearly all of the other
mills is very low, though perhaps rather better than the instance

is only light in the aggregate.
Lace goods and fine linens, suited
especially to the holiday trade, sell freely and at full prices, both
Worsted goods also sell well,

but beyond these the trade is light.
Importers report sales of
considerable quantities of Alapacas to clothiers, for summer coat¬
ings, and there is also a steady demand for these goods from dis¬
tributors. Millinery goods continue about as last reported, with,
perhaps, a little better demand, for all styles of ribbons. Mantilla
