THE DEBT STATEMENT A\D THE CABINET.
Several weeks ago we discussed certain rumored changes
in the financial policy of the administration.
These rumors
have
just been revived.
Mr. Boutwell, it is said, with Mr.
Fish and several other members of the Cabinet, are to re¬
tire on the 4th of March.
Such are the reports ; and con¬
day repeated and contra¬
dicted in the newspapers.
When we last referred to these
rumors they were very operative in Wall street, and were
put in circulation almost wholly by persons who wished, for
speculative ends, to derange the movements of the money
market and the Stock Exchange.
Losing much of their
financial importance, however, these stories are now chiefly
political, and have less cltfim on our attention. Still, they
are
producing incertitude in the financial circles; for the in¬
fluence of the Secretary of the Treasury is so vast in our
monetary system that it is impossible for a change to seem
impending without some perturbation of the public confifidence. The debt statement for 1st February is chiefly in¬
teresting as showing that Mr. Boutwell has somewhat modi¬
fied his
policy of locking up greenbacks, The currency

together with the receipts from customs, has been
expended in the payment of the January interest, and for
the usual sales of gold.
We have also paid off three mil¬
lions of the bonds of 1871, and only §885,000 of these bonds
are now outstanding.
There is much satisfaction with Mr.
Boutwell’s policy in managing his gold balance. He has
shown a juflicious foresight by gathering in a considerable
coin reserve.
The Treasury holds, we must remember, the
only available reserve in this country of coin and currency,
and in view of the possible complications in the finances of
Europe we might, with advantage to our commercial and
monetary equilibrium, add 20 or 25 millions of coin to the
67 millions now owned by the Government.
The debt statement reports a decrease of the public debt
during the month of Four millions. This monthly liquida¬
tion of the debt is now very little regarded, though a few
months ago it was the theme of general laudation throughout

opening month of the New Year was characterized by the
derangement in monetary affairs consequent upon the
shifting of loans, incident to the payment of interest, dividends,
etc., falling due on the first of January. The market was also
further disturbed by the irregularities of December, to which allu¬
sion was made in o :r last months paper. The scheme was brought
to a ridiculous conclusion early in the month, and from the returns
of the Clearing House since it is presumed that the locked up
greenbacks have been restored to general circulation. The bank
statements have continued unfavorable however, though perhaps
their true condition is not reflected in the returns.
According to
the exhibit of the 28th, the banks hold but a trifle over $16,000,000 in excess of legal reserve, the specie standing at $25,500,000.
Some apprehensions were excited toward the close, but taking
advantage of the comparatively limited resources of the city
banks, another attempt would be made to interfere with the natu¬
ral course of money and advance rates by the expedients hitherto
made use of.

land grant road, entitled to 346,880 acres, of which 218.880 acres had been certi¬
fied to the Company on the first day of July, 1869.
This road was built and
consolidated with the Northwestern, without the lands, at a rate of about $40,000 per mile.
The lenth of this road is 73 miles. Its cost to its projectors was
about $20,000 per mile.
The profit ou construction was about $1,460,000. The
value of its land-grant, at $7 per acre, was $1,532,160.
The profits of the trans¬
action, consequently, were $2,992,160. The Peninsula Road had no connection
whatever with the Northwestern, nor did it come within 50 miles of any portion
of the line of the letter.
This is known as the Ogden & Tilden grab.
The total amount of lands already ceded to the three companies whose roads
are leased to-the Northwestern, amounted on the first day of July: 1809, to
1,703,250 acres. Their value, at $7 per acre, is $12,328,792. Large additions are
to be made to the present cessions.
The profits arising from the constluction
of the roads could not have been less than $12,447,375.

of gross corruption or folly, it hardly matters now which. Suffice it to say, it
was a gross perversion of a most sacred trust, for which perversion the public
are paying bitterly.
They, paying on the roads at double cost, have derived no
advantage whatever from the grants so munificently, made. _ These grants
should in all cases have been made the basis of the securities issued by each
company. The proceeds of their sale should have retired these securities, re¬
ducing in an equal degree the cost of the roads, with a corresponding reduction
in the charges for transportation.
By the time the lands were sold, the reduc¬
tion in the amount of the securities issued would have equalled such proceeds;
the sum of $12,242,792.
The annual interest on this sum is $850,995. This
would have been the animal gain to the commerce of the country, had
these lands been applied, as they should have been, to the construction of tha
road.
These lands are now wholly held—Irish fashion—by absentees, or speculators,

Railroad and Uliscellaneous
Stocks.—The market has been
somewhat irregular, with the larger transactions limited to spe¬
cialties.
For a few days alter our last report the tone was gener¬
ally firm and buoyant, but subsequently there was considerable
selling to realize the advance, and prices fell off on Thursday ma¬
terially. To-day there was a partial recovery, with a strong feel¬
ing at the close. The extreme ease in money is very favorable to
stock speculation, and a comparison of prices shows that a ga;n of
from 3 to 5 per cent, lias been nude on all the leading favorites
over the lowest prices of January.
There is not, however, that
and confident outside support which has been lelt in former
advance of 2 or 3 per cent, is apt to be followed
to realize. Lake Shore has been particularly
strong and active on reported purchases to control the next elec¬
tion ; Rock Island has been largely dealt in on Philadelphia ac
count, supposed by some to be connected with the control of the
Union Pacific by the Pennsylvania Central Company; Hannibal
and St. Joseph has been weak ; Panama recovered to 69 ; Union
Pacific has again declined, closing at 19f ; Ohio and Mississippi
has been active during the week upon the strength of the
proposed change in track to narrow gauge to form close connec¬
tion with the Baltimore and Ohio and Marietta and Cincinnati
lines, but to-day it was reported that the Erie Railway had ob¬
tained an injunction to prevent the change in gauge, on the

South American dollars..
Foreign Exchange, - The market has shown a very firm tone
throughout, and prime bankers’ sterling is quoted to day at 109£,
the highest price made in some weeks.
There is not much ex¬
change offering, and bankers are themselves buyers at a small
fraction below their own rates.
Commercial bills continue to be
scarce, and the exports of cotton for the week show a material de¬
cline, being only 73,528 bales from all ports.
An important
amount of exchange was made this week by the bills of a leading
banking house in this city, drawn against a loan of £500,000,
negotiated in London for the Camden and Amboy Railroad Com¬
pany.
If the settlement of European affairs now leads to an
increase in cotton exports, the amount of bills on the market will
be
more
abundant.

3,700,00(T bales, we certainly do not see any fair prospect of get¬

India or a decreased planting this spring here. .As to India,
t does not appear probable, in view of the stock this year held
over, and the present improved
condition of the crop, that
the movement hence will show any falling off.
And yet, as the
advances, if prices should decline further, no one could
know positively the effect of the diminished drawing power of the
slower quotation on the ryot.
It is matter of history that in 18(31 a
rise to 0£d. (the average for fair surats during the year) increased
the India shipments, without any additional planting, to 986,600
bales, from 563,200 bales the previous year, showing that the pre¬

greatly to reduce the movement of all heavy goods, and
undoubtedly the mar¬
has suffered to some extent from this cause. Still the
demand in the aggregate may be called fair, and the tone has been reasonably
steady.-ttoroughout, with most of the sales effected on a basis of full former
quotations, and in some cases a trifle higher. Holders appear to be fully as
confident in their views as at the date of our last, the Cuban and English mar¬
kets both remaining in an, encouraging position, the arrivals here still small,
and stocks slowly but surely falling away. In addition to these influences,
there is also the belief that, with peace now very probable, and tlie failure of
tlie beet root crop abroad, for want of attention during the war, there is likely
to spring up at any moment a sharp European call, though much will of course

close of our last report
fully realized, and we record a very liberal business for the week.
The call has been largely for Oolongs which seem to have become a favorite
since the opening of the year, but greens have not by any means been neglected,
and it is probable that a considerable quantity of Japans would have found an
outlet had desirable parcels been available. Previous values as a rule seemed
acceptable to both buyers and sellers, and the range of prices shows no import¬
ant variation, though the tone is oil the whole firm. The assortment was some
what broken by tlie free sales of goods, but the openings are now better owing
to fresh arrivals with comparatively small lots
sold before receipt. The
transactions embrace 12.217 pkgs Greens; 41,500 pkgs Oolong; 3,250 pkgs Japans;
and 430 pkgs Souchong.
Imports this week have included 853,717 lbs. Japan, per “Black Prince,”
from Yokohama; 21,110 lbs. Black and 4.080 lbs. Green, per “Game Cock,”
from Whampoa; 422,468 tbs. Black, per “Excelsior,” from Amoy; 667,543 lbs.

^buyers have been the prevalent features of the market since the date of our
last issue; but notwithstanding the latter, the amount of sales reported has
been comparatively small, owing lo the very same causes alluded to previously
—say, moderate receipts from the country and extravagant prices exacted by
some holders, who are much encouraged by the steadiness of foreign markets
and the crop reports, which appear to confirm that the juice of the cane is poor
and that the yield will accordingly be small. Our last quotaticn of 10 rs. for
No. 12, as a basis, has advanced during the week to 103-4(7MO)4c., and these
figures close firm. The receipts and stock, and consequently the deliveries,
show a heavy decrease when compared with those of the past two years, and

tendency, especially of Raisins, has„been decidedly upward, and the close was
fairly active, and the advance is well sustained. The cause of the ad¬
vance in Raisins has been large purchases, which have been stimulated
by the low prices current of late, and the fact that the war between Germany
and France is about at a close, and that a good portion of the remaining crop
would be taken by the Germans, as so far they have taken almost nothing,
while usually they take about one-quarter of the whole crop. Turkish Prunes

TRADE.
Friday, P. M.,
February 8, 1871
the Dry Goods trade
during the current week, and trade remains without especial
animation. There are a considerable number of buyers in the city
from the South and West, but we note very little disposition to
purchase, either among these or city dealers. The large jobbers
who were purchasing some weeks ago, seem to have obtained suf¬
ficient supplies of staple domestic goods for all immediate require¬
ments, and in the absence of any demand from retailers, are not
taking any amount of foreign goods, or of the domestic fabrics
suited especially to the spring trade. The class of dealers now
arriving in the market appear to be in no haste in making their
purchases, and at present are only canvassing the market for desir¬
able assortments. There is an universal complaint among dealers
here and in the West of the high freights charged on the various
railroad lines, between here and the western cities, and it is stated
that these exorbitant rates are not only delaying the trade, but
are throwing a vast amount of it from this market into Boston,
Philadelphia and Baltimore, from either of which points the rates

Collections are generally free, with some
complaints, from the exclusively cotton growing sections, of a
scarcity of money. Some of the river towns in the West are also
a little backward in the matter of settlements, but
payments are
made, as the rule, with about the usual promptness.
