The present volume contains many lmport_:ince. especially St. Wo are authorised to receive subsorlptloDi fora limited amount (not ezeoeding $2,000,000), of the capital stock of the Iron Steamboat Co., in shares of ono hundred dollars each. This Company Is building, and will have In read), ness for the coming Summer season, a large fieet of Iron Steamboats, especially adaiitod fortbe requirements of passengers of groat speed, constructed In the most substantial manner, non-cumbuatlble, ; and with numerous water-tight compartmenti, which will render them Incapable of sinking. Contrasted with tho ordinary wooden steamboats, they cannot fail to command, at highly remunerative rates, the patronage of the great majority of the traveling public. The Company has entered Into contracts extending over a term cf years, under which It baa acquired the exouslve right to convoy passengers from New York and Its vicinity to the Iron Pier at Coney Island, and a similar exclusive right to convey passengers to Coney Island In conaectlOD with one of the leading railroads to that place.

But, besides competition, there is also another MR. GLADSTONE'S POLICY. What Mr. Gladstone proposes to do on the opening a question which many are asking themthe upward movement; that is the increased intrinsic selves. It is well known that he is resolved to bring forvalue of railroad properties. This improved value is the ward a measure of reform which it is hoped will make an result, first, of our improved credit, which the events of end of the land difficulty in Ireland, but what it will be the last two years especially have produced ; and second probably only Mr. Gladstone himself and his colleagues in influence, outside of interest rates, which is adding force to of Parliament is to the fact of a vast and unparalleled improvement in the Ministry at the present moment can answer. There the condition and business of nearly every cerporate is some good reason for believing, however, that it will be property. Railroad securities are higher, but railroad not so much a radically new measure as a supplement to business warrants it.

Its six per cent bonds, dating Oct. 1, amount to but one million. These are now being marketed at 95, mo.stly, however, in Cincinnati. The subscription that is now being taken is to build the St. Louis extension of 250 miles through the lodiana coal fields and some of the richest com and wheat lands of Indiana and Illinois.

First mortgage bonds of the old roads are almost out of the mai-ket, or are selling at so high prices that investors are looking to the best of the new Issues to supply their wants. Within six months the United States Fives and Sixes will be called in by the Government, thus adding to the Inquiry for good railroad securities. The new Government loan will not pay more than 3 per cent and we expect to see it eagerly taken up at that; while a constantly-increasing accumulation of capitjil will be seeking the better classes of investments, from which a larger Income can be derived than the Government need pay.

The noner Market aud Financial .Sltnatlou, The markets close with unshaken strength and buoyancy on the most prosperous business year ever experienced in the tinited States. Our space is too limited in this rej^ort to comment at lenffth upon the various phases presented during the year, but in the last quarter, and since the elections were settled, the great and conspicuous feature has been the growing confidence in the resources of the country, as exhibited in the public sentiment at home and abroad. The Stock Exchanges are thermometers showing the current opinion of moneyed men in regard to the condition and prospects of business. The bonds and shares dealt in merely represent real estate in the shape of railroads, or promises to pay, as in the case of Government bonds, State bonds, city bonds, &c. In either case the value depends almost entirely upon the capacity to get income, and this again depends upon the general state of business prosperity among the people. These are but truisms, and yet they have a very direct bearing upon the range of prices to-day and in the future. The prevailing idea that the United States Goveinment is so sure of a permanent income that it can negotiate a long-term bond, carrying only 3 per cent interest, shows unlimited confidence in the status of the country, and it has been a strong influence, pushing up everything at the Stock Boards during many months past. It is not desirable to take a rose-colored view of the business situation which is not warranted by the actual facts; but even accepting thLs basis, it may fairly be said that the appearance of commercial and financial affairs throughout the ceuntry at the close of this year is one of sound and healthy prosperity, which has never been equaled. The danger ahead, whenever it may develop, can hardly spring from any inherent weakness or rottenness existing at the present moment, but is more likely to arise from going too fast. Some rail_ roads may be built which cannot earn their interest; wheat may be grown (with all the new land) till the price goes to 80@9b cent« in New York; general confidence may carry things upward nntil stocks sell at 80 which have no rea.sonable hope of dividends for ten years at least. The demand for loans on new enterprises may be so rapid that money will command 1-32 per day for months together.

In the case of the improvement bonds, which matured on November 1, no action looking to their payment has been made. The holders claim that the funds with which these bonds should have been paid have been misappropriated by the Receivers, inasmuch as the agreement with the railroad company is that five cents shall be set apart for each ton of coal carried as a fund for the liquidation of the principal and interest. On December 21 the Receivers of the Philadelphia & Reading Railroad, at their meeting, took up the complaint of holders of improvement bonds of the Schuylkill Navigation Company, but no definite action was taken, as the Receivers assert that the Schuylkill Navigation bonds must be considered in the same light as other obligations of the bankrupt company. — Spartanburg & Ashevillc (S. C.I—Judge Bond has ordered this railroad to be sold on the first Monday in April next. The flase in which this decision was made was tried in the United States Circuit Court at Charlotte, North Carolina. The principal que.stion involved was whether the mortgage bonds were to be postponed to the claims of contractors and to mechanics' liens, which latter were filed subsequent to the execution of the mortgage deed. Judge Bond held that the mortgage bonds were entitled to priority, and ordered the railroad to lie sold by the trustees of the mortgage deed. 50. Butter ; December 25: Pork lbs. B.»oon....lt)8.

To 'SStvtim'ti'pm .: . ; week a better export demand for the leading shipping grades of flour, and prices, though without quotable improvement, have been more regular and steady. Large lines of common to good extras have been taken for Great Britain and the West Indies, at prices ranging from $4 25(5 ^5 50. The snow storm, and its probable detention of supplies, caused a firm market yesterday, notwithstanding the subsidence of the export demand. Rye flour, corn meal and buckwheat flour have ruled in favor of buyers. To-day holders of wheat flour were firmer, but trade was slow. The wheat market has been variable, but on the whole less de]6ressed. The export demand has been more active, favored by a better supply of freight room and some reduction in rates. Supplies have come forward less freely and foreign advices ruled stronger. Yesterday there was a good business, including No. 2 red winter at $1 16@$1 17 on the spot, $1 19@$1 19% for February, $1 21@$1 21?4 for March and ?1 21^@$1 21M for May; and No. 1 white at $1 14(9$1 14>i on me spot and $1 1754(g>$l 18 for March; but the close was at inside prices. No. 2 spring Chicago and Milwaukee sold to a moderate extent at |1 15(g)$l 17. To-day winter wheats were l^i@'2e. higher, with a brisk speculation, stimulated by Western advices. Indian corn has had a downward tendency, with some irregularity. Yesterday No. 2 mixed on the spot was quoted at 57c, for old and 54^(^550, for new, with optioa dealings in "No. There has been in the past ( — .. : .
