Tbe proposed capital of the new company b $5 000,000 in 200,000 shares of 925 each. — Messrs. J. S. Kennedy & Co. and the Bank of Montreal are offering for public sabscription 910,000,000 of Canadian Paciflc first mortgage land grant bonds. The bonds are part of a total authorized issue of $25,000,000, of which 95,000,000 hav« been accepted by the Canadian Government as security from the company for the fulfilment of its contract. They are secured by a lien on 25 million acres of land in the Canadian Northwest. There are several strong features about the loan which will commend it to public attention, such as the requirement that the bonds and all amounts realized from their sale shall be deposited with the Canadian Government and only paid over to the company as construction progresses, the provision for applying the proceeds of the sales of land to the payment of interest on the bonds should the earnings prove inadequate, and the deterujination of the company to complete the road, if possible, without availing themselves of the ri^ht to issue additional mortgage bonds on the road, thus making the interest on the land grant bonds the only charge against the net earnings. The high character of the bouses negotiating the bonds is'also a point in favor of the loan. — Messrs. Moses Taylor & Co., advertise that they have for sale first raoitgage 6 per cent bonds of the New York Lacka- & Western Railway. This road, it will be remembered, extends from Binghamton to Buffalo, and is to be the Buffalo extension of the Delaware Lackawanna & Westem._ The work of construction is proceeding with great expedition. When completed the Delaware Lairkawanna & Western will become a great trunk line from New York to Buffalo. The bonds offered for sale are a first lien upon both road and equipment. wanna BANKING AND FINANCIAL.

Mexican Railway.— At the recent meeting of the stockholders of this (Vera Cruz) company, the directors reported that the net earnings for the last half-year over operating expenses and fixed interest charges on the mortgage debt amounted to $1,129,.500, besides the full dividend upon the preference shares. A dividend was declared upon ordinary share capital at the rate of 8 per cent per annum. These distributions of net earnings average about 7M per cent upon the entire capitalization, which now amounts to $133,500 per mile. The perpetual mortgage stock and the three classes of shares sell in the marKet at prices ranging from 98 to 1.S8 per cent, so that the present market value of the capitalization amounts to $157,420 per mile. This prosperity for the six months ending June 30. 1881, is stated to have arisen mainly from an increase of $625,000 in the traffic of the miin line, accompanied bv an increase of «100.000 only in the working expenses. The principal increase of trifflc has been in freight, and mainly through the carriage J of materials for constructing other railways. on funded debt Rentals of leased lines and other charges Surplus for the year $18,693,108 11,613,925 814,305 $7,049,183 733,957 $8,303,681 $4,148,745 2,267,517 $7,833,140 $3,963,873 2,078,646 $6,416,263 $6,042,519 ,887,417 $1,790,621 This amount of $1,887,417 in 1880-81, together with $1,193,582 received from other sources, making in all $3,080,999, has been applied mainly to improvements of the road and propeity, and to the acquisition of equipment and real estate. " The working expenses have been 64 per cent of the earnings, an increase of 2 per cent over the previous year, but a decrease of 6 per cent from 1879. This increase of 2 per centis accounted for by the large increase in our trafiic at reduced rates, and the increased cost of labor and material. " The increase in the tonnage, other than coal, over the previous year was 919,655 tons in the tons transported one mile, 121,079,362 tons; but the earnings from this source decreased $73,349, owing to the decreased rates received, being but 789-1000 cents per ton per mile, against 869-1000 cents in the previous year. This is due to the long and fierce competition for business which has existed between the different lines, and which has resulted in lower rates for transportation than have been reached in many years. Had we received the rates of 1880 for this traffic, we would have earned an additional sum thereon of $1,125,548, and our percentage of operating expenses would thereby have been reduced to 60 7-10 per cent." The increase in coal tonnage over the previous year was 1,451,276 tons; in the tons tiansported one mile, 142,203,398 tons; in the earnings, $1,661,810; aud in the rate per ton per mile 107-1000 cents, being 845-1000 cents, against 738-1000 cents in the previous year, a result which is very gratifying. The increase in the total tonnage over previousyear was 2,370,931 tons; in the tons transported one mile, 263,282,760 tons; in the earnings, |ll,588,461; but the rate per ton per mile decreased 031-1000 cents, being 80,5-lCOO cents against 836-1000 cents in the previous year and 1 209-1000 cents in 1875, a decrease from the latter year of 33 4 per cent. The increase in the number of passengers carried over previous year was 652,727; in the number carried one mile, 20,023,586; in the earnings, f358.315; but the rate per passenger per mile decreased 25-1000 cents, being 2 016-1000 cents against 2 041-1000 cents in the previous year.

New York Texas & Moslcan.— .\ report in the St. Ixjnis Globe- Democrat statea that on Nov. 23 track-laying on the New York Texas & Mexican liailway had reached the East Bernard Kiver, 15 miles west <if Kosenbnrg Junction, and was progressing at the rate of a mile and a quarter per day. The company, naving a force of 800 men at work, are determined to reach Victoria by Feb. 1, 1882. J. W. Mackay, the Konanra King and a stockholder in the company, was on a visit to Connt Telfener, the President, and is making a thorough inspection of the line. Mr Mackay and Count Telfener are brothers-in-law, and they, with Mr. Decastro,.a wealthy Parisian, are the moving spirits of this railway enterprise. A prior report to the Democrat had the following account of " Outside of the subvention from the State of this enterprise sixteen sections of land for every mile of road built, they have purcha.sed 240,000 acres upon which it is the intention of the company to plant colonies of Italians brought over nnder the auspices of the company's colonization scheme ; the head office is at Milan, with branches at Paris, Lindon and New York, and negotiations are pending for permission to open similar offices The fourth expedition of 450 colonin Germany, Sweden, etc. ists for colonization on the company's lands, are expected to arrive about November 0, while another 450 are atloat, 250 of whom will go to Indianola. Besides these, 450 laborers for work on the road are hourly expected to arrive. The company goes strictly on cash business and draws all its material and supplies from this country except steel rails, having paid out already over $1,200,000 for supplies and having on deposit funds to complete the road to Victoria. An arrangement has been made with the OulT Colorado & Santa Fe by which the cars of the New York Texas & Mexican Ilailway will run over the former Ifne into Galveston, making this city the virtual eastern teiminus of the line. Trains will be put on as soon as the latter road reaches Wharton. The length of the road is 350 miles, and it is the determination of the company to have the entire line completed to Brownsville, on tlie Ilio Grande, and in active operation by January 1, 1883, with lateral branches connecting the miin line with the Gulf of Mexico at Lavaca Bay, Corpus Christi and at Brazos Santiago. The estimated c«8t of the entire line is ^8,750,000, but the capital is iiied at $10,000,000 in order to provide for all contingencies. Count Telfener owning nine-tenths of the stock, none ot it will be thrown upon the market until the road reaches Victoria, and it is doubtful if then. The road penetrates one of the richest and most productive agricultural and pastoral eections of the State and has already a large business guaranteed it as soon aj the Colorado river is crossed." : Ohio Railway— Clev. Col. C. & I.— Cin. Ham. & Diiyton.— There has been quite an extraordinary controversy regarding the settlement of the difficulties between Messrs. Vjinderbilt, Jewett and others, and the discontinuance of the litigation now pending in the Ohio courts. The Cincinnati Gazette of November 27 publishes the following (in substance) as a special dispatch from New Y'ork •' At a conference between Mr. Vanderbilt and Mr. Jewett held in New York a few days ago it was found that the dilference which has existed between them as representatives of large railway interests could be adjusted by themselves on a basis entirely satisfactory, without the aid of either courts or lawyers. At a subsequent meeting an agreement was entered into. The basis of the agreement is : : " /Vr*/— Tliat r11 olijcttlone, legal or otherwise, to the directors and olllcetgof the Ohio Uiiilway Company i>ci roiinlng their otfichil duty u« Kucb shall be withdrawn and tho Tuliuity of the consolidation recpgii/.«d. • S'coHrf—That Mr. Vanderbilt shall not seek to conti'ol or lunucncc the mana).'enicnt of the New York Pennsylvania A Ohio ruad, and that at the proper time Mr. Jewett, as the revreseutativc of the Krlc iutcrCKtii.

'• I have made no agreement," he said, "with Jlr. Vanderbilt or with any one else in this matter. 1 have not seen the dispatch from Cincinnati, but my attention has been called to the subject. There is not one word of truth in it. 1 have nothing to say about the terms, for there is no agreement, and there caimot therefore be iuy terms." Mr. Devereux, of the Cleveland Columbus' Cinciusati & Ind. RK., also denied the report. On Nov. 30 the Cincinnati Gazelle replied as follows, in its editorial columns "On or before the 1st of January it will be (•ffici.illy announced that the controversy between Jewett and Vanderbilt over the Ohio Railway Company has been adju.sted. The understanding was that the announcement should not be made for a mouth ; but the Guzettf. had no such arrangement, and it gave the public the benefit of the information.

The Rochester* Charlotte Railroad, which is the most northerly line, has for its northern terminus the important harbor of Charlotte, on Lake Ontario, and runs sontb to Rochester. It has been in conrse of construction for some time. The Rochester & Pittsburg Railroad forms the second link in an old road ranning from Rochester to Salamanca, and was purchased by its present owners over a year ago. At Salamanca, its southern terminus, it forms a junction with the New York Pennsylvania & Ohio Railroad and the New Y'ork Lake Erie & Western. The Great Valley ft Bradford Railroad is the third link, and when completed will run from Salamanca to the Pennsylvania .State line. Here it will be joined by the Bradford & State Line Railroad, which forms the foarth link, and takes th ) chain to Bradford, where it is joined by the Pittsburg & New York Railroad, the fifth link. 'I'his latt road will run to Brookville, where a junction will be formed with the low grade division of the Allegheny Valley Road. The consolidation is made under the name of the Pittsburg & Rochester Railroad Company, Walston H. Brown of New York being President. The directors are all ea.stem men, with the exception of Mr. Callery of the Pittsburg & Western. The capital stock is fixed at ?10,000,000. At Albany, N.Y., Nov. 29, articles of consolidation were filed. Richmond & Petersburg.— At the meeting of the stockholders of the Richmond & Petersburg Railroad Company the Pre.sident submitted the following statement of the business of the company for the fiscal year ending September 30, 1881: Oross receipts Expenses, ordinary aud extraoi-dlnary 1980-61. 1879-SO. $lfi4,l»8 83,099 $185,005 09,978 Net receipts Interest on debt $79,099 17,874 $8S,92« 16,009 Net revenue $01,221 $60,827 in new eqaipments and permanent betterments is included in the above item of expenses. Twenty-five thousand dollars of the eight per cent bonds, dne on the 1st of April last, were paid with the avails of |25,0OO of the new six per cent gold bonds sold at 106 and interest. About $15,000 expended Saratoga County Bonds.— At Saratoga, November 23, the General Term reversed the judgment in the case of the Saratoga County Board of Supervi.sors against Andrew Seabury and This case arose out of the alleged defalcation of exothers. County Treasurer Henry A. Mann, of Ballston Spa, in 1875. '1 he reversal of judgment renders valid the alleged over-issue of notes made by him. The Board will probably order the easo carried up to the Court of Appeals. The notes aggrente $138,000, besides the interest that has accrued since 1876, which, together with costs and feee, will swell the amount to about $225,000. Sontli Carolina.— In the United States Circuit Court, last week, several final orders were entered, completing the recent compromises and the transfer of the road. The so-called syndicate claim was settled by the payment of $135,472. the syndicate surrendering the second-mortgage bonds and the Greenville & Columbia and other secunlies which they held as The court fixed the pro rata share of the secondcollateral. mortgage bondholders in the proceeds of the foreclosure sale at 2t) per cent, allowed the receiver a commission of 1 per cent for making the sale, and directed $35,000 to be retained in <!ourt as a fund to meet claims and bonds not yet presented for payment.

Mr. Baldwin, on behalf of the trustees, reported that, as authorized by the scheme of organization, there had been issued to all proper claimants stock as follows Of the first preferred, $1,500,000, of the second preferred, $3 000,000, and of the common stock, $800,000. A resolution offered by Mr. Jno- W. Burke, of Alexandria, approving the report of the trustees and confirming their acts, was adopted. Mr. Baldwin further stated that it bad been found impossible to prepare a written statement of the financial condition of the road, but the trustees reported that they had issued $4,000,000 of preferred stock, $800,000 of common stock, and of new bonds aggregating $7,635.000 that the trustees have redeemed all the bonds presented to them and paid all the existing obligations of the company.

Domestic Cotton Goods.— The main features of the cotton goods market remain unchanged. Some considerable orders for China and other foreign countries were placed with manufacturers' agents, and a fair business in dyed ducks, &c., was done with converters; but jobbers bought sparingly and in accordance with immediate wants.

There was a fair morement in certain makes of cotton and woolen goods on account of back orders, but the near approach of the period for "stock-taking'! has rendered buyers less urgent in their demands for early deliveries of the former.
