delayed this year publishing our usual annual review of
the commerce of New York in order that we might revise some o'
the figures. Having, however, now received the Custom House
statement, and brought down our own tab’es^to the 31st of De¬
cember, we are able to present the trade of the port in full.
RECEIPTS, IMPORTS AND EXPORTS OF LEADING ARTICLES.
There is no marked variation in [the receipts of the leading
articles of domestic produce except in breadstuff’s and a few other

reaches 13,472,940 bushels
against 9,6^2,537 bushels last, year and 5,911,511 bushels in 1866,
while in flour the figures are about the same for the three years. In
corn there is a
very decided increase this year, the total being 19,087,265 bushels against 14,944,234 bushels in 1867 ; and yet this
total does not equal the receipts in 1866 when they reached 22,696,186 bushels. The explanation of the small receipts in 18 37 may
be found in the early and unexpected closing of the canals. Below
articles.

THE

CHRONICLE.

In the
exports for 1868 the changes are not
very material; and
yet the corn movement is a little
remarkable. It will be noticed
that although the
receipts have been over five mill/m bushels in

excess of

1867, the shipments have been three

by the payment of the dividends, but as money had been largely bor.

returned to the Bank, so that there will not be the customary abun¬

The
large sums borrowed of the Bank prior to the payment of the dividends
indicates an increasing demand. The usual payments incidental to the
close of the year may have partly contributed to such a result; but
there is no doubt that the slight improvement in trade and the numer¬
ous foreign loans, which have been introduced of late, have had an im¬
portant effect upon the market. At present there are no symptoms
that trade is actively recovering from the recent contraction witnessed

There is

scarcely any demand for gold for export, and further supplies have been seut into the Bank. Silver is vtry flat, and there are

The indirect

import from Jan

During the earlier part of the week there was a continuance of the
depressed condition of the trade noticed in our last. We are able to
report, however, within the last two days an improved demand,
arising
from both distillers and
refiners, with more active movements of the
stock suitable for the use of these
purchasers. The improvement has
extende l to domestic also, and New
Orleans, especially the finest quali¬
ties, has sold at 2@3c better prices. Sales comprise 694 hhds Cula>
653'do Demerara, and 543 do New Orleans.
The receipts of the week at New York have been
small, including
779 hhds of Cuba, and 2,970 bbls of New Orleans.

The development of the railroad
systems of the United States in
the year 1868, has been more
rapid than in any former year.
Nominally we have an increase of 3,450.37 miles, and in the cost an
increase in the immense sum of
$193,245,232 over the
by ws as the totals of the previous year. Much of this figures given
aggregate is
due directly to the
progress made in building the Pacific Railroads,
and indirectly to the
impetus the near approach of their completion
has given to railroad
