There are other facts illustrating this. But one of the most striking is the limited number and amount of the failures which have occurred during our paper money era with as frequent disasters and spasms. Such facts as these are well worthy of note both in a public and a private point of view. many One of the mercantile duties of the New Year is to strike a balance of the past with a view to estimate the clangers or advantages with which coming engagements With a are likely to find .view to add to the evidence accu¬ mulating for us, and throwing on the future the light emitted by the past, we sum up to-day the more private and industrial results of the last year’s business. We can scarely do this more effectually than by comparing the number and extent of the commercial failures which have occurred. is much greater than ever before. It has been asserted on competent authority from a compilation of the reports of 430,000 traders, manufacturers, bankers, and master mechanics, that the proportion of failures among them during the past year engaged in the internal commerce of the country TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION-PAYABLE IN ADVANCE. For The Commercial and Financial Chronicle, delivered by carrier to oity subscribers, ana mailed to all others, (exclusive of postage,) environed. amount than in Financial Chronicle is issued every up to us in has not been much more than one in a hundred, and the unpaid obligations of those who have failed has been far less, in proportion to the capital employed in busi¬ ness, than in any ante-war year subsequent to 1850. A sound point illustrated by this table is the small control which during the year the fluctuations in gold have seemed to have over our interior trade. Last year these fluctuations in gold were unprecedented, and still the failures were little more than in 1867 and 1868, when the price of gold was comparatively stationary. The reason is that our greenback currency has not been inflgted or diminished. Of course the exemption from trouble would not have been secured if the oscillations in gold had been produced by expansion and con¬ traction of the greenback issues. It is because our paper cur¬ rency lias been steady and because the movements of gold have been produced by causes exterior to our paper money that these movements have not had the power to derange to a greater extent our internal trade. So long as our own cur¬ rency is kept steady in volume, the speculations of cliques in the Gold Room cannot pierce very deeply to injure our sen¬ amount of sitive may to a commercial system. These speculative combinations interior trade is great extent secure against them. It would be interesting disturb our foreign commerce, but our Of these in this connection if could discriminate the years during chiefly those of persons engaged in we subjoined report has been carefully compiled by Messrs. which the failures are Dun, Barlow & Co., and extends from the year 1857 to the export and import trade, as also the number, extent, and character of the failures in the various States during the past present time: the . The general result to which these figures would no doubt conduct us is that, as the last year or two has shaken the weaker parts out of the financial system, and has shown our commercial position to be so much stronger than was supposed, so we may anticipate that during the coming year, which opens with auspicious promises three or four years. improvement, the same strength which has given solvency and stability last year will give our industrial armies this of national prosperity. year success, progress, and In contrast with the figures * [January 22, 1870.

The British parliament was foolish enough to listen to similar schemes. The result was that the English currency system and the English commercial prosperity were afflicted with spasmodic derangement by alternate expansion and contraction. The heavy failures of 1809, 1810, 1811 and 1812 were largely due to this cauie. Let us be wis4 enough to avoid the errors in financial statesmanship which have been so fatal elsewhere. If we have had so few failures in the last year or two, it has been because our currency has not been spasmodically tam¬ pered with to any very considerable extent. Let it be equally saved from the intrusion of rash hands this year and the results may be more satisfactory still. figures. r asks the without government to assume banking functions, not only any sort of compensation but also with a positive It would induce the conversion of all the 3 per cent certificates into an obligation bearing 65-100Lhs more interest. It would result in the banks draw¬ ing 3.65 percent from the government upon nearly the whole of the currency in their hands; and, which is perhaps more important, it would draw into the Treasury the surplus funds of private citizens, thereby depriving the public of the bene¬ fits of their circulation. By fixing a minimuirrrate of interest it might help to keep the money market steady, and so far to check speculative excesses; but such regulation is wholly ar¬ tificial, besides being a heavy tax upon the public purse. A second remedy suggested is that the government shall receive bank circulation on deposit, issuing against the de¬ posits a non-interest bearing certificate available at the Clear¬ ing House, the Treasury undertaking the forwarding of the currency for redemption. This, again, attempts to shift upon the government the expense, trouble and risk of assorting and redemption, a matter foreign to the proper functions of the Treasury, and which cannot be foisted upon it without a loss of interest and expenses. dangerous violation of GLUT OF BANK CURRENCY—THE REMEDY. It has further January reflux of currency from the interior to this centre is accompanied with a very inconvenient redun¬ dancy of bank circulation. Without indulging in guesses as to the amount of this class of notes now resting in the city bauk% it may sufficiently indicate the superfluity to cite the fact that the banks are lending them, for limited periods, free of interest, with a view to obtaining legal tenders on the pay¬ ment of the loan. These gluts have become periodic, and are a serious inconvenience, not to say loss, to the banks, and a direct stimulant to speculation during the period in which they exist. Practically, the holding of this superabundance of national currency constitutes a sort of compulsory loan? without interest, to the national hanks of the country at large, and as the city banks do not wish their funds to thus lie idle, they grant loans freely only to call them in again at a time when the speculation which lias thus been excited is at the highest point and the money is most wanted by the needy The usual borrower. The banks receive the notes from settlement of balances or the interior either in the in the way of deposits. In the they are compelled by law to accept them., the notes being a legal tender as between banks; and in the latter they do not feel at liberty to risk offending correspond¬ ents by demanding legal tenders in lieu, although in most cases they allow four per cent upon the deposits. If the banks could legally insist upon the acceptance of these notes former case principle. been proposed, with some degree of inge¬ appointed by the Clearing House to deposits of bank notes, sealing them in packages of $5,000, and issuing against them certificates made available for settlements at the Clearing House. This expedient is free from most of the objections against those above mentioned. It is, however, but an expedient designed to evade the resort to a remedy much more thorough, and demanded upon every principle of sound banking. The only cure that will bear the test of principle is the nuity, that one bank be receive from the others return of the notes to the issuers. It is a significant indica¬ banking regulations which grew out of the financial expedients of the war, that practical bankers should now attach so little practical impor¬ tance to the necessity for effective redemption arrangements This indifference, so far as it prevails among the banks of this city, appears to arise from a fear on the part of individual banks that, by countenancing a prompt return of country circulation for redemption, they might offend their correspon¬ dents. A certain allowance may, perhaps, be made for this prudential timidity. But, to us, it appears, short-sighted and unwise. The banks have it in their power, by unanimous action to enforce a healthy redemption. By neglecting to do so, they not only encourage unhealthy fluctuations and invite frequent crises in the money market, with attendant licentious speculation, but they foster the currency inflation to a very serious extent.

Such a policy would impose a natural, though at first severe, check upon inflation. It would impose contraction in periods of ease, while it would provide a margin for expansion when circulation most needed; in a market. Without, at present, undertaking to prescribe any specific plan for enforcing the redemption of bank circulation, it may be safely stated that there are no insurmountable difficulties in the way of such action.

The function belongs properly to the banks; and grounds of economy and convenienee, requires to be performed by them in a combined capacity. Some time since it was proposed, in the Clearing House Association, to estab¬ lish an organization for assorting and forwarding notes for redemption. Without endorsing all the details of that scheme, it appears to us that the objections most strongly urged against it were not sufficient to warrant its summary abandonment. The estimates of expense were based upon data drawn from periods of extreme redundancy, not at all representing what would be the average extent of work. The risks of handling and expressing large amounts of currency were also dwelt upon ; but nothing could be adduced to show that the rbks of manipulation and carriage would be greater in this case than in other like operations of the banks. It may be that some better means could be devised. If so, the sooner the plan is propounded the better. If not, let a method be adopted which even has the fault of objectionable detail leaving experience to correct them ; for no initiatory imperfec¬ tions of plan, nor parsimony of expense should be allowed to weigh against the imperative necessity of putting in force an arrangement so essential to sound and safe banking, and to the healthy regulation of the money market. • 1869 the traffic of our railroads has probably better than in any previous year of their history, and it is not difficult to point out several causes which have contributed to produce this result. Fore¬ most among these causes we may consider the large crop of cereals in 1868, which furnished business to the railroads not only in their direct transportation to market, but also in return freights of merchandise inland; and this item has been ren¬ dered of unusual importance from the high prices which prevailed until recently for all kinds of breadstuff's, warranting a high tariff for freights and bringing general prosperity also to the agricultural districts.

Has any special imbecility been discovered in the holders of 'the outstanding bonds of the United States that this thing should be expected of them ? Everybody knows that of two classes of national securities, both of undoubted credit, the one soon maturing, the other having a long term to run, the latter will be preferred at a lower rate of interest; but there must be a reasonable pro¬ portion between the two. It happens, unfortunately, too, that no class of United States Securities have yet the char¬ acter of “ undoubted credit,” nor can it be given them so long as the capitalists and business men of the world see in the administration of our government finances the absence of all true apprehensions of our difficulties and of the right remedy is about 86, or for them. brought to the consideration of another and most palpable fallacy, that is that any new loam can be nego' tiated at a rate worthy of the United States in comparison with the rates paid by other governments, so long as our government refuses to redeem or take measures for the redemption of, its past due and depreciated Treasury notes. This is the great incubus, the standing reproach, the confes sion of insolvency under which we are now laboring. Until it be removed, or provision be made for retiring all of it that will not float at par of gold as redeemable currency, all schemes for improving the public credit, or for negotiating new loans at par in gold at a rate of interest lower than is now paid, or for resuming specie payments, are utterly futile, and deserve the derision with which they are regarded by bankers and political economists at home and abroad. But here we are met with another fallacy—a groundless fear—that if we resume specie payments our securities held abroad will be sent home, drain off our coin and force another suspension of payments. Those who express this fear should know that the resumption itself, with the salutary measures which must precede and attend it, would appreciate the credit Here we are and value of our bonds abroad their retention both render [January 22, 1870., THE CHRONICLE. 104 even more desirable and than at home, and physical world, to supply and price. a level, but in trade for a level of both shipment to our markets of any article of European production, in excessive quantity, will so depress the value here as to make it unprofitable and stop the movement. So the sending home of our bonds in amounts beyond our ability to carry would depress their value here to or below the for¬ eign value from lack of buyers, for we could not be compelled to buy them. If the extreme case be supposed that a panic from distrust, or revolution, or war, should drive them home to extent depressing their price so low as to make an them more desirable objects of investment than anything else, the value of all other commodities would sink in proportion, and the interest of money would rise exceedingly. Even then gold money would not go abroad, for no where else could it find such profitable use as here, and profitable use is what the foreign capitalist seeks,'net the money itself. The effect then would be to get home a large amount of public debt in exchange for a smaller amount of private debt. The flow of gold from one country to another to adjust a miscalled “ bal¬ ance of trade,” or meet an emergency, is not contrary to the law that we have stated. It is not ev£n exceptional to it, but rather confirmatory, for the movement indicates that gold is in excess and cheaper (in relation to other things) in the exoorting country, and flows to restore the level in the import¬ ing country where it is deficient and more valuable. We have often seen gold flowing to us from England when we were largely the debtor country. It has occurred within the past year, because the course of exchange called for it. Seeing how widely those fallacies prevail, the prospect for something good and effective to be done is to many discour¬ aging. Still remembering Sidney Smith’s remark after we had emerged from the darkness of State repudiation, “ there is a special Providence for little children, drunken men, and the United States,” and assured that if the pressure is to be yet harder, hibor less employed and less paid; taxes perhaps reduced, but with less ability to pay them ; the best indus¬ tries of the farm and the shop made unprofitable, that reck¬ less ep(dilation may run its destructive couise—assured of all this, we are still confident that our natural advantages and activities will win in spite of 1 lenders past, present and future; The for when the pressure shall will find a way of rebef.

In the Gulf States we learn that there is still con¬ siderable cotton in the fields, the planters not having been able to obtain the hands to pick it.

There has been a good demand for Teas, more particularly Oolongs, during the week, and a very fair business has been trans¬ acted ; more, in fact, than the amount of reported sales would indicate, as a number of transactions have occurred in Teas from first hands, which have not -been made public. The cargo of the Samuel Russell,” 5,000 half chests of Oolongs,” which arrived this week, had been sold some time since, aud reported at the time, and are not therefore included in our total of salts.

The market remains much the same as last week; prices continue to be firmly held, though the amount of business done has not very greatly increased. The most favorable point to be noticed is the arrival in the city of a considerable number of Southern buyers, who are now probably the most favored purchasers in this market, as they have been in the habit of paying cash for goods, and coming to New York at the present time with the proceeds of a good crop of cotton, sold at twenty five cents a pound, in their pockets, it is not surprising that our merchants should hail them as welcome visitors. It is a matter of congratulation to all business men that the South is getting into a sound financial condition, and no persons will be more willing to rejoice over this fact than those who were most active in fighting the Southerners in fair and open combat during the late war. While the presence of Southern merchants is welcomed in our market, we hope that the old practice of selling to them, or to any other parties, foreign and dried the market has been very firm, RaisinS on long credits, will not be revived ; it is a custom alike in¬ so animated, but are steady at the late advance in pric sIn the auction Sardines have sold largely on speculative account, and Citron has jurious in the end to both jobber and retailer. houses very little has been done as yet, and the season will met with a good demaud from the same source.

Considerable quantities of goods are changing hands in the xjity, early for any distributive demand.

Bleached Sheetings and Shirtings sJjow little improvement from the experience of the previous week. It was expected that the new year would usher in a fair amount of activity in this line, but the realiza¬ tion of such views has been looked for in vain. There have been some few goods moving on orders, and buyers for the South have absorbed a small quantity, but the large distribution confidently looked for by jobbers has not eet in ; in view of this the movements from first hands have been somewhat curtailed, as the jobbers evidently desire to work off some of their present stock before laying in fresh goods. The market on rates remains unchanged, and rules very firm on all standard grades, in fact it can hardly be otherwise when the limited production, small stocks, and comparatively low rates, are taken into consideration. Lower grades are reported in good supply, but with no material change in current askings ; indeed, the whole line rules fairly firm.

The unfavorable condition of the market for the raw ma¬ Hamil¬ terial, coupled with the slight demand now current for 1’n is, has tended to weaken prices materially, and the market on so n glides is off a fraction. Printers evidently have the disastrous events of the past year fresh in their memory, and it is little likelv that they will like vigorous demand for their goods supplies the requisite animus. Prices range from 6 to 8*c, as to quality ; but towards the close of the day we heard of a transaction in enter the market vigorously until a 64 cloth at 8c. Some few new styles of spring work the exhibit is far behind the same period of last year. Jobbers have a fair amount of stock on hand, and are apparently unwilling to increase it until more favorable indications cf a vigorous spring traffic are evident. Quite a number of Southern buyers are in town, and these are operating in a small way. Rates are fairly firm on new work, while there is an insufficient quantity of old etock in the market to render any reliab!e quotation for it.
