London, Saturday, January 30, 1869.
delays which have so frequently taken place in our telegraphic
communications with India have been seriously felt by our merchants,
and at various times put an almost entire stop to business. The cable
laid down a few years since in the Persian Gulf has beeu so
frequently
broken, causing so much uncertainty iu the transmission of messages
from Bombay or Calcutta to India, and vice versa, that measures have
been adopted with the object of preventing any such inconvenience in
future.
A few months siuce, a company was brought out for construct¬
ing a line via Vienna and the South of Russia, joining the Persian Gulf
line at the head of the Gulf.
That line has, however, two great draw¬

Anglo-Mediterranean Telegraph Company, whose cable now extends
The new company has leased and possesses
the power of purchasing the land lines belonging to the Telegraph to
India Company, so that the line to be c nstructed and laid down will
commence at Suez, touch at AdeD, and then stretch across to Bombay.
The capital of the company is large, viz.: £1,200,000, in 120,000
shares of £10 each; but as soon as the line is completed to Bombay,
efforts will be made to extend it to Ceylon, and from Ceylon to Aus¬
tralia. The prospectus will shortly appear of the Indian and Austra¬
lian Submarine Telegraph Company, so that if the last two companie
meet with success, India can be reached by four routes.
In the money market there has been continued quietness, but the
rates of discount have not materially changed. In consequence, how¬
ever, of an increasing export demand for the precious metals, a slight
increase of firmness has been apparent.
The supply of money is st 1
good ; but there is some revival of fresh enterprise, and it is to be hoped
that an absorption of our supplies of idle money will gradually take
place. The following are the quotations for money, compared with

by raising more produce from the land. With the growth in the pro¬
duction of the land, there will, of course, be an augmentation of wealth,
and in due course the population will increase. Hence the
develop¬
ment of the railway system will result in the more
rapid development
of Russia in wealth and strength.
The wants of India, with regard to
railway iron, are also very great, and extensive purchases have been
made on that account.
For the United States large transactions were
entered into in the course of last year; but the demand is now
greater.
The weather has become frosty, and the condition of the wheat
brought forward for sale this week has materially improved. Farmers
have not, however, thrashed out freely, and the
supplies offered
throughout the country have been somewhat restricted. Millers have
purchased with more freedom, and the result has been that prices have
improved 2s. per quarter. Barley is also rather dearer, and malting
produce still commands a high price. The following is the statement

The Monet

Market.—The last

l ank

statement

showed

no

changes cl importance. In the legal tenders there was a de¬
crease of $1,323,000, which indicated an efflux of
currency from the
city; while in the loans there was an increase of $1,370,000; the
other changes were nominal. The
changes in the averages, though
not important, were not calculated to
encourage loaning operations
The loan market presents no features of

special interest. The
supply of funds is well regelated with the demand, and the market
being free from speculative interference, there is a healthy, steady
feeling. Yery little currency is coming from the interior, and the
shipments to the South have been on a larger scale, some of the
banks having sent as much as $100,000
per day. This long con-

fnued flow of currency southward is a somewhat unusual move¬
ment, and is to be accounted for only on the supposition that while
the South is

realizing a large amount upon its cotton it is
buying
goods from the North very sparingly. The effect upon the money
market is very evident; the legal-tenders in the banks are
kept at
a very low point, and the rate of interest
ranges higher than is

usual at this

season.

Should the South continue thus to hold

an

unusual amount of the currency sent for
moving its crops the result
may be a very active condition cf the money market at the
opening
of the navigation season, when

prices rose Jc. over the close of Friday night; but on
Monday the improvement was lost, the demand being very
limited aud the
reports from Liverpool less favorable. Since
then, with better accounts by Cable, and small
receipts at tbe
ports, tbe market has been firm, and
prices have improved a
little, with\oflerings large, but holders
demanding full prices
until
to-day, when, under the influence of the favorable stock
account from
Liverpool, the market became dull and heavy
and so closes
to-night, with prices ^@^c. off. Sales for for¬

The fluctuations and excitement in this branch of the trade
have been such

could

hardly be caused by any influence
powerful than a serious political disturbance such as that
now prevailing in the Island of Cuba.
There has been no movement in molasses at all correspond¬
ing to that in sugar; on the contrary, business has been dull,
though prices at the close are quite firm.
In tea there has been but a limited trade, mostly in greens.
Rio Coffee has been held almost too firmly to admit of heavy
sales; transactions have been of fair amounts, however.
Gold has been weak, and shows no sign of immediate ad¬
vance, though we incline to the opinion, previously expressed,
that the premium, will
probably be higher within the next

the leading mills of the country are stocked up

There is much now said upon the market as to the large
proportion of Southern buyers in the city; and we hail
with satisfaction, the arrival again in the New York market

The object of this book, as its name
Implies, la to
afford an easy and readv reference in deciding credits
By consulting it the reader may discover at a glance
the two moat important elements in the claims of
every applicant for credit—first, an Indication of Cap¬
ital ; and second, the Comparative Credit Stauaing of
the party iu the community wliere he resides,
But whi.e tins work is prepared with tie most scru¬
pulous care, we are at all times conscious that it in¬
adequately represents tiie material behind it. Notwitnstanding the labor and the great expense which
the solid mass of names In agate type implies, the
work is only a secondary part of our business ; and
useful as it may be, is only an indication of tbe facili¬
ties we can afford our subscribers in aiding them to
salely dispense credit.
Tuk Refkbenok Book is
merely an outgrowth of a large and comprehensive
system inaugurated and tesieu by us and our immedi¬
ate predecessors years before any such publication
was dreamed of—a system which has for its basis a
statement of all the facts and details gleaned from the
best sources of information, which, year by year, as
they accumulate, make up the history of every busi¬
ness man in the country.
The accuracy of these de¬
tails is alike tested and vouched for by their constant
use as a basis lor credit by the large number oi sub¬
scribers whose confidence we have enjoyed for a pe¬
riod now extending over a quarter ol a century.*lt
is obvious, that with these current histories of all ap¬
plicants for credit accessible, the merchant who neg¬
lects to avail himself of them, and contents himself In
tiie granting ot even a single credit with the mere
Rating ot a Book, does hiimeif very great injustice.
He doubles the ordinary risks of credit by leaning
upon a meagre and at the best incomplete guide.
We have referred to the matter in the above man¬
ner because we notice a dangerous tendency among
dispensers ot credit (eveu among our more recent
subscribers) to rely purely on the Releience Book.
We urge upon them them tiie desirability—nay, the
absolute necessity, ii tney seek to trade safely—to
consult the detailed Reports on Record at our various
olllces. We are certain, from long experience, that

they will be amply repaid for tno slight Jabor which
such a habit will cause, uud convinced that by neg¬
lecting to do so they are constantly doing themselves
an injustice, increasing the already great risks oT cre¬
diting, and rendering inoperative the extended facili¬
ties wnich we pos^e&s to serve them.
The New Book, issued January 1, is the largest and
most complete ever issued; is corrected up to within
a very shoit date of publication, and we are sure will
meet with the approval of our patrons.
