Such is the inference which has

quarterly reports of the National Banks, so that we can pub¬
lish now the
comparative tables for the chief cities, and next
week the returns for each of the States.
The leading
topic of immediate interest on which these reports are de¬
sired to throw light is the
adequacy of the reserves of lawful
money.
A little more than a year ago a Congressional in¬
quiry disclosed the fact that over 50 of the National Banks
in various parts of the
country were found by their quarterly
reports to be short in their reserves, and that the Comptrol¬
ler had urged them to make the amount
good. At that time?
October, 1866, the reserves were as follows: legal tenders
205,770,641, specie $8,170,835; total reserves $213,941,476.
The liabilities covered by these reserves were as follows :
deposits, $596,911,446; circulation, $289,877,583; total,
$886,788,929. The reserves were thus about 24 per cent, of
the liabilities, and as the law
requires that 25 per cent, re¬
serve be held
by the banks of the 17 redemption cities which
we will
presently name, while 15 per cent, only is required
from all other banks, the average of 24
per cent, shown in
the October statement for 1866 might have seemed, in the
absence of further proof, to have- been amply suffici ent to




been

popularly accepted. To refute it we need to have the
Comptroller’s official assurance on this point. Hence we
have always contended that Mr. Hubbard should include
the information in his quarterly reports, which without it
are
obviously incomplete. This is one of those points on
which the principle of publicity might be applied at once.
The Bank Department at Washington is armed with the
facilities for getting these facts, not for the mere informa¬
tion of a few Government officers, but for the guidance
of the public, who have a vital interest in knowing the truth,
who have a right to know it, and whose business prospects
and future fortunes are closely dependent on the
prompti¬
tude and accuracy with which they succeed in learning it.
The reform to which we refer requires no additional legis¬
lation whatever.
Indeed, for the present, we oppose all
tampering with the bank act as inexpedient, as likely to
overload the law with cumbrous

innovations, and to lead to
good. What is wanted is simply that the
Comptroller should add to his list of questions sent periodi¬
cally to the banks, the proportion which their reserve bears

speculation, from the considerations we have ad¬

prices. At what figure this speculative cotton would be re¬

It is not to
be overlooked, however, that in the event of a large post-ion
of the crop being thus held back, there would be such a de¬
ficiency in our exports as might induce a temporary advance
in the premium on gold, which would enable sellers for cur¬
rency to get a high price for their cotton, without a corres
ponding advance to foreigners who buy in gold. Or should
tions upon

the price of gold, the
inducement to speculative holders to realise would be all the
greater. It is not impossible, therefore, that we may witness
much higher currency prices for cotton, without an equal
rise in the quotations at Liverpool; and under such circum¬
stances, the probability is that cotton would be exported
more freely than is anticipated by those most sanguine as to

likely to run very close upon that of 1866-67, the differ¬
ence, according to this estimate, being only 12,000 bales.
According to the latest estimates England is now consuming
at the rate of 52,000 bales per week, or within 3,000 bales
weekly of the rate in 1860 ; the consumption for that year
being equal to 55,000 bales per week of the now reduced
average weight of the bale.
At this rate she would re¬
quire for (he years’ consumption 2,700,000 bales; leaving
onto t the total supply 1,413,000 for export and stock on
the 31st of August, 1868.
Now the exports from Great
Britain, far the last calender year amounted to 1,100,000
bales; and assuming that the amount for the present cotton
year will be equrd, it would result that at the close ot the
year, me stock unhand would be only 313,000 bales, against
890,000 Dales on the 31st of August, 1807; and this
in the face ' of a
largely diminished supply of the
American staple for the succeeding year.
We arrive, then,
at this result: the present rate of consumption in Great
Britain is ahead of the year’s supply to the extent of 500,It is thus

some quarters there is a strong disposition to limit the esti¬
mate of the present crop to 2,250,000 bales; should this
supposition be realized, we should have only 1,133,000 bales
for export.

supply of Great Britain for the cotton year.
The importation from India has been expected to fall off
from last year 200,000 to 300,000 bales, in the event of
prices not advancing before the monsoon ; but as the Liver¬
pool market is now steadily advancing, it may, perhaps, be
proper to estimate the decrease in this source of supply at
150,000 bales. The combined supply from Turkey, Egypt,
Brazil and other minor %ources is expected to slightly ex
ceed that of last year. According to the usual proportion
of our shipments, about 1,133,000 bales of our estimated
exports would go to Great Britain, and 250,000 bales to
other countries. Premising thus much, the supply of Great
Britain for the cotton year may be estimated thus :

aggregate $19,795,522 22 are chargeable against canal
revenues, and the remainder is payable by direct taxation.
The most of the indebtedness of the cities, towns and
counties, except that of the city of New York, is in a fair
way of being liquidated in ten years.
This is specially true
of the war and bounty debts, which are required by the
terms of the. laws authorising them, to be
paid in a short
time.
A large aggregate was cancelled a year ago, and a part
of the amount given above has been already cancelled.
Now that the war is over, and expenditures require severe
taxation to meet them, Legislature should be very careful
to abstain from passing laws authorising the bonding of towns
cities and counties for any purpose.
There is, indeed, a
strong doubt in the minds of many as to the constitutionality
of such legislation.
A State debt cannot be created without
an especial submission to the people at a general election.
A local debt is of course as much a burden upon the people
as a State debt.
How, then, it is argued, can the Legisla¬
ture authorise a debt which is to be a charge upon a
part of

It draws 7 per cent, interest; and in the act provision is
made for the payment of the whole principal in 1877. In
view of the heavy local obligations and federal taxation the
comptroller advises that the time for payment shall be ex¬
tended, and the. productive interests of the State relieved
from so heavy an annual burden.

The floating debt is so

arranged that we have no doubt of being
fully able to payjt without any inconvenience.
The debt due to the State of
Mississippi ($220 000), and interest to
Oct. 1,1867, on the same ($80,000) we
hope to be able to fund or ar¬
range in a satisfactory manner.
Nothing has yet been done towards the settlement of the small note
issue of the company—$112,339 80
; but we trust our receipts, during
this season and the next, will warrant its
gradual redemption.
“The total indebtedness of the
company (floating and bonder1) in¬
cluding all t stimated interests on personal accounts and matured bills
payable, can not dow exceed $4,760,000, and there can be no doubt
that, with receipts moderately estimated at $1,500,000 per annum, we
can devote a large sum towards the ultimate
liquidation of the entire
amount, after paying running expenses and a liberal interest on the
debt, besides gradually increasing still more the rolling stock of the

the character of loan operations since our last report. The demand
for advances from the brokers is very active, owing to the large op¬
erations in stocks; and as the prices of all kinds of securities are
advancing there is materially a larger amount of loans required upon
a
given quality of securities than of late. This consideration may
iu part account for the fact that, although the banks are still re¬
ceiving a large amount of currency from the West, the decline in
the rate ot interest is not equal to wbat might have been expected
from the growing plethora of funds.
The better class of borrowers
are able to supply their wants on stock collaterals at 5 per cent.;
but the general rate on demand loans still continues at 6 per cent.

Metals have been dull, and No. 1 American Pig Iron de¬

East India Goods are very dull, except in Calcutta Linseed

general market is reported quiet, and prices barely maintained.
Freights have been dull. Room on the berth is exceedingly

The harbor is full of ice, which causes delays and injury
To the shipping. Rates to Liverpool have improved until
to-day, by sail, 35s. for Lard, and £d. for Cotton, were paid,
and by steam, fd. for Cotton, 50s. for Bacon, 60s. for Cheese
and 12d. for Corn, with very little room to be had at these

goods are light in the hands of dealers, and they
purchase steadily but not largely.
Cotton has materially advanced on low stocks and higher
figures at other markets. Breadstuff's have felt.some specula¬
tive influence, but closed dull.
Tobacco has been fairly active
and low grades steady.
Groceries have been in steady
demand, and all descriptions close a shade firmer.
Provisions heve been generally quite active.
Pork declined
early in the week, but closed more steady at $19 for prime mess
and $21 50 for new. The yield of new Pork is likely to be below
the average, while the English markets seem prepared to take
large quantities. Lard was active for export early in the week
and prices advanced, but ‘ no freights ” shut out shippers,
and the close was dull at 13£c. for prime.
The same remark
applies to Bacon, and Cumberland closed at 10|-e. There has
beer, a great supply of Western Hogs, live and dressed, price?
of which have materially declined. The movement in Beef
has again been heavy this week, and largely for export, the
transactions amounting to about 0,500
bbls. and tcs. at
very full prices.
Butter has been improving, and Cheese has
been taken to a moderate extent for export, but closes heavy.
Hides have done better, but closed quiet at 20c,, gold, for
average weights of Dry Buenos Ayres.
Leather is more
active and very firm.
Petroleum has been very dull tending downward. There
appears to be no orders at current prices.

The market this week has been very active, and closes with
excitement at a decided advance in prices, the sales to¬

some

day reaching 8,500 bales. This activity and improvement is
d<ye mainly to the small stocks of American cotton in Liver¬
pool and on the Atlantic seaboard of the United States; a pres¬
sure of
export orders which could not be filled here on account
of the poor assortments, and the scarcity and high rates of
freight, and which have, therefore, been sent on South, and the
further fact that the Southern markets are all relatively higher
than this. Spinners have also operated more freely, al¬

though,

as yet, there is no decided advance in goods, while
speculative confidence has increased. In fact there is a general

trade has been only on a moderate
scale. Gold has advanced during the week, and closes above
1.40, and in consequence of this high rate prices are naturally
quite firm. Transactions, though not large, are in the legiti¬
mate line of business, and the prospects for the future are re- /
garded as encouraging. The imports have generally been
small, with the exception of several cargoes of Rio coffee. Full

DRY GOODS TRADE.

THE

Triday, P. M., January 24, 1868.

There has been

activity in the dry goods market dur¬
ing the past week, and jobbers have evinced a disposition to
commence operations
for .the spring trade. As yet their pur¬
chases have been restricted to those standard goods in shirtings
and sheetings, which being sold close up, or in advance, are
likely to become scarce in the market; but there exists also a
more active
inquiry for some other articles of domestic manu¬
facture, which will probably be more fully developed during
the ensuing week.
1
Generally speaking, we note a more hopeful feeling as
to the spring business, although the reports that daily arrive
from all parts of the country reveal a great monetary pressure
in almost every branch of the trade.
We have no heavy
failure to report during the week past, but nevertheless the
more

balance on the right side. A large
maturing will have to be renewed, and
in some cases a compromise will be accepted, but it is now
believed that the crisis is subsiding, and that we shall have a
fair business to report for the ensuing campaign.
With the experince of last season’s transactions there will
be great caution evinced in the matter of credit. The profits
are now so materially reduced by the
fall in prices and the
continued depression in trade, that sellers cannot run the risk
of large sales on long terms ; but stocks are light, and although
the transactions may be of a hand to mouth character, we
trust that the aggregate will be satisfactory to all concerned.
