return of bonds from abroad. The sales, however, have been
pretty well met by a good demand from home buyers, and particularly banks in the interior, who have been glad of the opportunity to get bonds at lower prices.
At the close, there was a decidedly firmer tone, the larger
holders of bonds were stiff, and parties who had been selling
were making inquiries to repurchase.

has been unsettled, and, upon the whole, weak, though prices at
the close showed more steadiness and were
per cent, better
than at the lowest point of the week. On Saturday, the 3d inst.,
the day following that upon which our last report was written,
stocks were firm and gave the appparance of much strength this
week but with some uncertainty in regard to the position of leading operators, and a threatening at times of artificial stringency in
the money market, and also the disturbed condition of foreign
affairs, prices have been feverish and irregular,
working down
from 1 to 2 per cent., and touching about the lowest point on
Thursday, since which there has been a reaction as above noticed.
It IS not certain that the general position
of the market has
changed, and the decline which has taken flace may be used
as a
basis for higher prices hereafter.
Railroad earnings, so far as reported for the month of
January
are favorable, as vnW be seen in the following table

The Gold inarket. The gold market, which we have noticed
recently as having a firmer tone, under the influence of the movements of some leading operators, has received a further impetus
in the discussion of our treaty relations with England. With this
source of strength, assisted by a slight scarcity of cash gold for
borrowing, the price has been up to 110}, though reacting to-day,
and closing at llOJ. It is hardly too much to say that war with
England is generally considered by our leading financial men as
highly improbable and the influence npon gold may have already
been fully discounted.
Rates for carrying have ranged from
" flat " to 7 gold, and to-day were 6, 7,
(H. 5. '"^^ 3 per cent.
The Assistant Treasurer sold $1,000,000 on Wednesday, bids
amounting to $3,695,000.
He has now paid out on account of
5-30s redeemed, a total of $34,395,000, and on account of January
interest, $16,751,000.
Customs receipts this week amount to $3,373,000.

— During
the early days of the week ex
change was dull and business done at \@i concession on the nominal rates.
But on Thursday the market became decidedly firmer,
and some very large purchases were made by a foreign banking
house, probably in anticipation of a return of bonds to this market
from abroad.
The negotiation of bonds abroad, and the large
purchases of railroad and other securities here for foreign account,
which have been made since the first of January, have heretofore
depressed prices. As to the cotton crop, it must be remembered
that there is much yet to go forward, and if present prices are
paid for it, much exchange will be produced.

Town
Railroad Bonda.— In the United States
nichlBan
Circuit C'ourt yesterday morning, the cases of (Jeorge II. Taylor
vs. The City of Battle Creek, and Edward B. Talcott vs. The
Township of Pine Grove were decided. These cases involved the
question of the validity of municipal bonds issued in aid of railroads under the general railroad aid laws of Michigan. The former case arose In the Eastern district of Michigan and the latter
In the Western district.
Both were argued together, a few days
ago, in this city, before Judges Emmons of the Circuit Court,
Withey of Ihe Western District Court, and Longyear of the Eastern District Court. All these judges participated in the decision,
Invcstmenta In Railroad Bonds— Prlcea of Bonda for and all concurred.

given before, except July and August, which will be published
ereafter.
The volume and page of The Chronicle, where the

introduction to the table given below.
Railroad EarnlnKs.— Reports of railroad earnings for January
come in rather slowly, but so far as yet received they are quite
favorable, and will be found in our regular table of comparative
monthly earnings, on a subsequent page. In consequence of the
snow-blockade, there is no definite report of Union Pacific earnings, but from the Central Pacific the remarkable statement of
an increase of $97,982 over the earnings of January, 1871, notwithstanding the fact that through traffic was interrupted nearly the
whole month by the blockade on the Union Pacific. The Central
Pacific has shown a large increase in earnings from year to year,
but this exhibit (or January, 1872, evinces more positive strength
in the position of the company than anything heretofore published.
There has probably been an impression that this
road was largely dependent upon through business, while this
development of earnings from local traffic (which is by far the
best business a railroad can have) shows that the company might
live and flourish without any through traffic at all.
The comparative figures are as follows
For the month of .January, 1872
$634,480
For the month of January, 1871
536,498
For the month of January, 1870

port ror 1870-71. We regret that lack of space has prevented
us from giving earlier attention to this report, which we have
received with much satisfaction, as another step made towards
obtaining full and reliable information in regard to railroad
afihirs.
The railroads of Illinois have become famous for their
—
at least this may be said in regard to a number of the
leading lines and the success of these roads has probably done
more to stimulate railroad building throughout the West, than
any other influence.
The Commissioners Messrs. Gustavus
Koerner, Richard P. Morgan, Jr., and David S. Hammond have
labored assiduously to prepare a valuable report, though meeting
with numerous ditiflculties, the chief of which was the reluctance
prosperity
—
—
of
He reviewed the decisions upon the question of the authority of
the Federal courts to go behind the decisions of the State courts
upon the construction of State constitutions and statutes He
discussed at considerable length the public character of railroad
corporators, and dissected the decision of the Michigan Supreme
Court in the case of The People vs. Salem, in which they held the
Railroad Aid law unconstitutional.
He held that the bonds issued by municipalities in aid of railroads, having been issued in good faith and transferred to the
hands of innocent purchasers, are valid contracts as between the
citizens of Michigan and other States, which the Federal courts
will enforce.
But this only applies to bonds issued before the
law was declared uncpnstitutional by the State court. Contracts
made subsequent to that decision will not be enforced by this court.
Judges Withey and Longyear read concurring opinions.
The result of this decision, if it is confirmed, as it will doubtless
be, in the United States Supreme Court, is that the railroad aid
bonds are valid in tiie hands of non-residents of Michigan, and
can be collected through the United States courts. It will not
then take long to transfer every bond from the hands of Michigan holders to those of non-residents, when their collection can be
enforced. As this can only be done by a process of the courts,
which process would have to be invoked to collect any instalment
of interest, it will be seen that some trouble and considerable expense will still accrue to municipalities before these bonds can be
got rid of. But by this decision they are saved from repudiation,
and innocent bondholders are made whole. Doubtless it wovUd be
better for the municipalities to confess judgment at onje on the
whole amount of their bonds, and thus save the costs of going
many companies
to
make
returns, in
—
consequence of their
claim that the law requiring such returns is not constitutional.
There has been much criticism upon the action of the Commissioners, a large part of it undoubtedly without foundation, but it
is possible that
the board, in some minor points, may have
addressed the companies too arbitrarily.
The true relations and obligations of a corporation, to the State
government under which it exists, should become more definitely
and thoroughly understood. It would be a wretched policy for
any State to persecute, or impede the legitimate business of its
large railroad companies, which add so immensely to the State's
pro8j)erity.
On the other hand, there .seems to be no reason why
the most complete and detailed information in regard to the
afiairs of railroad, financial, insurance and trust corporations,
should not be made at specified periods to the State authorities.
These corporations hold franchises which are immensely valuable, and make all their profits out of the people, so that it seems
eminently proper that they should be duly accountable to the
Legislatures of their respective States. The work of obtaining
reports from railroads is making good progress in various States,
which have not until recently required any returns, and, we trust,
the day is not distant, when a full report of the condition of every
railroad in the United States will be made quarterly, or at least
semi-annually, to the State authorities.

It is estimated that the amount of bonds isstied by cities and

outside the State, and the balance will soon find their way out.

The movement of goods still continues a little slow and
withal somewhat disappointing, as many holders had calculated
upon working down their stocks pretty well by this time. The
tamenesB of the demand is in part attributed to the diflScult and
somewhat costly transportation to many points of the interior,
though there is no doubt that country dealers are holding off,
working up old stocks, etc., in hopes that the continued small
outlet may finally bring importers and the large wholesale
jobbers to better terms and result in modified values. As a rule
however, holders seem to feel just about as much confidence as
ever, and though here and there making the natural modifications consequent upon a dull trade, are by no means free
operators, and refrain from all pressure to realize. About the
only new feature of the week has been the strengthening of
holders of coffee by the confirmation of the previous rumors in
regard to a short crop of Brazils.
The entries direct for consumption, and the withdrawals from
bond, showing together the total thrown on the market for the

The demaud has been somewhat irregular, but, on the whole, fair, and
holders claim to feel a little more encouraged, though not sanguine, and
name and
insist upon extreme terms. Jobbers do not seem
freedom and confidence, as they evidently are unable to
obtain auy definite indication of the probable increase of the Line trade and
until the distribution shows greater and more general life the movement of
invoices can hardly be depended upon. Taken altogether, values appear to be
very well supported, and the market may be called steady, at least. Greens,
as before, exhibit the greatest firmness, and are thought likely to advance, if
judiciously liandled. All desirable parcels of Oolongs are valued at full market rates, and during a week or two past Japans have gained tone considera
bly, though not in a buoyant state as yet. The sales in invoices since on r
last embrace 8,100 half cheats Greens, 3,600 half chests Souchongs, 1,400 half
chests Oolongs, 800 iialf chests Japans.

Brazils, who now feel confident of higher prices and ©e'er very sparingly, in
some instances withdrawing desirable parcels from the market and not showing samples. Early in the week some of the smaller holders appeared rather
more anxious to realize, and were, it is said, willing to make concessions In
order to induce actual buyers to take hold, but since the receipt of the above
news, all hands are strong in their views
Buyers, however, will not take
hold at the moment, the out of town dealers' demand being restricted by the
obstructions to transportation, and the local parties appearing well supplied

and rathei more anxions to sell than to buy. The sales efTected therefore
from first hands have been limited.

The market for raw angara contlnnea very qniet, though flmi, contrary to
the usual rule, thata dull market is generally a weak one. Holders are

as conHdent as ever thatall the stock of the old crop now here wi I be wanted

in any quantity, and are, therefore, offering
and only at full prices, claiming that stocks in the interior
mustbeprelty lowand must necessarily soon become entirely exhausted, so
that they will have to come in the market to replenish. The crop of old
Is not larne, and the new Is very slow in coming forward,
and holders say

that new will have to accumulate pretty freely before dry old stock

induced to lake hold in the face of the present low prices for their product'
which docs not leave a margin of profit in refining The market, therefore,
presents a dull and very nnintcrcsting appearance.
The reports from
the South still qnote a firm market for the domestic crop, with a fair
inquiry
from the \Viv,t iiul Southern States, and a llirht demand from here, but the
niajorlty of the stock thot hax come forward has been sent direct
to refiners.
There has been rather more demand from the trade for Vacuum, Pan, and
Clarified sugars, bnt the transactions arc not largo at the moment,
expected to assume any proportions before the opening of
and arc not
navigation and
consequent resumption of a free trade between here and the West.
Refined
sugars remain very dull, and. although the production is light, it
is fully
equal to the call, and, in some cases, rather exceeds it. Prices
are not decidedly chan.ed from last week, but must be considered weak and
in favor of
buyers. The transactions in raws embrace 2,528 hhds. Cuba,
.3,641 hhds. and

The large jobbing houses

have been especially active, with heavy buyers from nearly all
the interior cities, and the market assumes more of its wonted
appearance of animation. For this period of the year the business is unusually spirited and the season opens most favorably.
The strong tone of prices on nearly all descriptions of goods has
the effect of stimulating trade to a certain extent, though, in
some descriptions of cotton goods, a further advance would
undoubtedly be met by a lack of confidence on the part of buyers
There seems to be no actual reason wliy cotton goods should go
higher than they now are, and agents will not be likely to find a
further rise conducive to a healthy business. Cotton is high, but
the advance has been more than discounted on goods, and if
prices are again put up it will be simply a speculative move.
The retail business here and in other cities is progressing fairly,

Domestic Cotton Goods. There has been a heavy jobbing
week in all descriptions of brown and bleached fabrics,
at full prices, and, in some instances, at a higher range than was
quoted in our last. A few makes of standards have been put up,
but there are some houses that object to an advance, who still
adhere to the previous quotations. Prints are in very good

in all domestic
week
have been very active, in all of the better makes, and are
selling by agents "to arrive." Prices are firm, and entirely
unchanged, with, however, some talk of an early advance.
Colored cottons are meeting more liberal sale at our quotations,
with prices firm and buoyant. Cottonades are selling freely, and
some makes are hhiger than last quoted.
Domestic Woolen Goods.— There is a good call for materials
prints
suited to the spring distribution, such as flannels, repellants, &c.,
and also some inquiry for light weight cloths and cassimeres,
though the demand for the latter fabrics lacks animation. Wool
has advanced materially since Jan. 1, but goods only " hold their
own," and even at the current prices, which are actually low,
buyers hold off. The supply of goods in the market is not above
the average, and there is no apparent reason why full prices
should not be obtained on all classes of woolens. Shawls are
Belling fairly at full prices, with many attractive offerings
of
spring weights.
