Company's Fiiist Mobtoaoe Bonds, bearing seven per cent
interest, payable in gold, free of Government tax, being the
balance remaining unsold of the $8,0(X),000 first mortgage bonds,
which are also secured by a land grant of 1,160,000 acres of choice
fine timber land, the proceeds of the sales of which are applied to
the redemption of the Bonds. Hon. W. A. Howard, Land Commissioner, reports December 12, that the land sales to that date
amount to about 30,000 acres, at an average of $15 per acre. He
estimates the proceeds of the entire land grant at not less than
110,000,000 clear of expenses. Two hundred and twenty (220)
miles of the railroad are now completed and earning sufficient
money to pay the interest on the whole issue of bonds. Price

expended for the whole year, and that engagements bad teen
entered into by the various dep;>rtmentB of these governments
that will require large sums for their liquidation. Many of tbe
departments are largely in arrears for their current expenses tbe
creditors of the city are pressing for payment. There are no
means in the treasury to meet their demands, and no lawful
authority exists to provi.le the means for them. A statement of
the affairs of the finance department, on the 10th day of DecemTbe revenue bonds and tbe interest
ber, 1871, is given below.
thereon amount to the sum of $6,617,916 30, mature on the 15th
day of tbe present month, to provide for the payment ot a considerable part of which immediate legislation is necessary. With
all the demands upon the treasury, the Comptroller entertains no
doubt that, under the influence of proper legislation, tbe expenses
of the several departments may be very largely reduced without
either diminishing tbe public comfort or convenience, and that
tbe resources of the City of New York are fully adequate to meet
all its engagements and to carry on the important public works
now in progress.
Appended to the memorial is a statement of the city and county
debt on the 16tb of December, as follows:

of the constitution, amonting to |981,588 68. and since paid in,
makes the actual balance as of that day, $1 805,744 29. This
contribution, it will be seen, was $411,014 07 more than in the
previous year, but still $518,411 32 less than the contribution
contemplated by section 2, article 7. Another year, it is believed
the contribution will come up to the full constitutional measure.

The aggregate of the canal debt on tbe 30tb day of September,
1870, was $11,960,580, with an aggregate unapplied balance of

Conuectlcnt Klvcr Railroad.— The Directors' report for the
year ending Sept. 30, shows that the income of the road last
year was $735,391, and the expenses, $477,489, making the net
earnings $347,901. These earnings, except the sum of $993, was
disbursed in the payment of interest, taxes and two dividends,
and an addition of $8,000 to the sinking fund. The corporation
has a surplus fund of $317,103. The business of the road has been
good, sh'Wing an increase of 6i per cent, over the previous year.
The road and its equipment have been kept at a high standard.
Tlie bonded debt, amounting to $350,000, is provided for by a
sinking fund, which now amounts to $117,755.37, and will probably equal the entire debt when it shall have matured.

PeniiKylvanla Central and Atlantic, Misslsiiippl and Ohio
Railroads.— The Pennsylvania Central Railroad' Company has
agreed to endorse the bonds of Mahone's consolidated roads,
extending from Norfolk to Bristol, that these may extend their
connections to the Mississippi River, and ultimately to the Pacific.
Ijondon and New York capitalists advance the funds required for
the purpose. The fact that capitalists of these two cities make
these advances justifies the conclusion that Mahone's plans are
well and wisely defined. 'Whether lie proposes to reach the West
solely through Louisville and St. Louis, or will scale the Cumberland range, making Gen. Maney's Central or the Memphis and
Charleston road parts of his line, is not yet known. In auy event,
Mahonehasan abundance of money. Such is the story told by
European papers. Scott, of the Pennsylvania Central, having
paid $1,000,000 for 10.000 shares— a controlling interest— in East
Tennessee roads, and having furnished Mahone, it is alleged, with
confacilities for money-getting, it is probable that the latter, in
junction with Scott, will seek a route to the Mississippi, either
over Scranton's Chattanooga, Meridian and "Vicksburg route, or
over the Memphis and Charleston road to Memphis.— jt/ewp/iM

have had an excited, and at times, feverish market, the
paa' week, with prices moving upwards almost daily. This change
in tone and feeling is the result of a more general belief in a
smaller croji, on account of the smaller receipts at the ports
during the week. Last Friday we stated that holders and operators were compelled to act with great caution on account of the
doubt felt on this very point the large receipts during that and
the previous week having led to the more general adoption of
larger crop estimates. Now smaller arrivals have strengthened
the opposite vieiv, and hence we have a revival of coufidenct and
speculative feeling. The same facts appear to have also acted on
Liverpool, increasing the animation there and improving prices,
and that market has again reacted on thin, helping forward the
upwari movement in progress here. In spot cotton there has
been a fair degree of activity, in which both shippers and spinners have taken part., and the close to night was firm at 20|c. for
middling uplands. For forward delivery tliere has been more
doing, a large portion of the transactions being reported on Southern account.
The In.'it quotations were (tor low middling) 20
7-lOc. for January, 2Hc. for February, Sl^c. for March, 21tc. for
April, 21Sc. for May, and 2!Jc. for June. The total sales of this
description for the week are 81,500 bales, including G50 free on
board.
For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this
week 14,029 bales, including 5,909 for export, 4,944 for consumption, 752 for speculation, and 3,024 in transit.
Of the above,
bales were to arrive. The following are the closing quotations

The general movement is still a little slow, but on the whole the market has
a better tone, and importers are encouraged in the belief of a gradual improvement of business as the month advances, as jobbers are thought to be rather
moderately stocked, and interior dealers, in many cases, almost bare of supplies.
Japans remain in a somewhat neglected condition, and feel the
Improved tone the least of anygrade. Oolongs, however, have attracted a fair
share of attention at steady figures, and greens have been the most anxiously
sought after, with prices firm indeed, so firm were holders in their ideas as
to freyuently retard operations, buyers being unprepared to pay any advance
as yet. The line trade has improved, and as on invoices greens have leceived
the greatest share of attention, with full prices asked, and in most cases
obtained. Sales in invoices of 11,250 greens, 5,2.50 Oolongs, and 300 Souchongs
Imports this week have included 60,938 lbs. Black, 792,465 lbs. Green, and

There Is nothing decidedly new to advise on this market, the general tone
remaining very firm, theofl'erings of supplies moderate, and holdirs somewhat
indifierent, even when bids approach very closely to the asking rates, while
on the part of buyers there is the natur.il caution growing out of increased
cost, and the demand develops slowly. Jobbers also are yet, in many cases,
engaged in closing np their books, and though the country inquiry increases a
trifle, it Is not as yet sulliclently active to make it necessary to purchase fresh
Invoices for the purpose of making good depleted stocks in store. Of Brazils
the accumulation in flist hands is moderate, but including that held by speculators and large jobbers, who are as ready to sell by cargo as by invoice, a
considerable amount could be made available. None of it, however, could be
reached except at very extreme figures
indeed, prices as compared with one
week ago are higher, with sellers confident that a still further advantage will
accrue to them before the season has advanced materially, and this simply on th ^
legitimate call from the regular trade. The prevailing cost is likely to check
any great demand for investment without a further decided stimulus, but those
goods now held on speculation are said to be most thoroughly controlled, and
not to be parted with until they pay a handsome profit. West India stock
not very plenty and somewhat quiet, but the few sales made revealed a very
firm market, and extreme quotations are Insisted upon, both for first and second"
hand lots. East India grades^have continued nnder quiet negotiation, and
the evidences of firmness and confidence much more marked than last week,
with a good many holders now unwilling to part with their supplies except at
a considerable Improvement in values, the cost being looked upon as too low
compared with other grades. The entire market closes strong, with a good
business doing from second hands. Sales for the week, 2,324 bags Rio 200
bags Maracaibo 534 bags Savanilla; 1,510 bags Ceylon
3,000 bags St. Domingo 29 bags Curacoa 1 150 bags Java before arrival, 8,971 mats Java. At

The year opens withont any decided change in the general condition of the
market for foreign grades. A few very choice pare ?ls of grocery stock, in a
small way, have changed hands at full prices, and we have heard of one or two
bids ventured;upon by reflners, but there is nothing in the shape of a general
or positive demand, and the accumulated stock remains in store adding np
expenses. Holders refuse to name further concessions, claiming that prices
arc already as low as could reasonably be expected, but quotations, of course,
ae merely nominal for the time being. Domestic has sold fairly, and was
somewhat irregular, but on the whole the turn has hcen mainly in sellers'
favor, and all prime lota arc pretty Arm, with the accumulation in store
increasing, receivers refraining from pressure to realize. Syrupa are dull,
only a fcv retail parcels changing hands. Sugar house molasses dull and a
little nominal.

SPICES.
Buyers are still a little slow and cautious about handling invoices to any
extent, aud the market in a general way has shown a dull_tone. On the whole
however, the feeling has somewhat Improved with the opening of the New
Year, and the indications seem to be that pretty near lowest figures have been
retched. Advices fmm abroad recently at hand proved qnite favorable, and
had a direct infiuencc on several leading articles, and some holders previously
half Inclined to realize even at the expense of forcing have withdrawn stocks
for the present. Pepper, Cloves and Pimento seem to be the most directly
afTectcd in holders favor, while Cassia continues a little slack and the most
difficult to move. The jobbing trade fair but not very active, prices sympa.
thizing with the wholesale market.
FRUITS.
&.C.
Foreign dried fruits have been a very little more active during the past week
than the previous, but the feeling is not so strong, and to effect sales a con.
cssion on the part of bidders has to be submitted to. Still buyers cannot he
induced to take told at all liberally and the market can only be called dull.
The
free arrivals noted last w'eck, which had been partly sold previously,
supply most of the wants of the trade. Layer raisins have declined about
15c. per box since our last and close dull, with no signs of the downward
tendency being checked. Turkish prunes are selling fairly in small lots a'
French have sold to some extent, to arrive, at 13®12Vc. Currants have
ruled quiet, and we note hut few transactions at 8c. Sardines are i» light
request at 33®.'}4c. for halves. Nuts are dull and business confined entirely to
jobbers. Citron steady, but is not selling from first hands.
Foreign green' have been In moderite request, but with !contlnued free
arrivals the tendency for most kinds la downward.
