Treasury purchase of bonds and the resumption of specie payments. It i3 pleasant to look back over the past year and see what has been 'done. A year ago the whole debt was tainted with a suspicion in consequence of the bugbear of repudiation. This cloud of suspicion has been rolled away, and if the past year had left us no other legacy our credit would have been hundreds of millions improved by the Con¬ gressional acts which gave the serpent of repudiation its quietus, so that it will torment and sting the public credit no more. The death of repudiation is, however, but one of the financial achievements of the past year. We have submitted to heavy taxation, and have collected for the Treasury a revenue large enough to leave a handsoyie surplus.' With this excess of revenue we have bought up during the year 87£ millions of bonds, of which 22£ millions are for the Sinking Fund, while the remainder, 65 millions, await the disposal of Congress. Iu two different ways then have we buttressed and strength¬ ened the public credit. First, we have57solemnly voted in Congress that the principal of the debt shall be paid iu coin, and, secondly, we have diminished the outstanding debt by ciates in which these computed. The calculation precious metals in the world in 1848 were estimated at $9,142,000,000. To this stock of gold and silver, in the last twenty years about $3,570 millions have been added, making the aggregate one-third greater. Hence, the volume of the specie currency may fairly be presumed to be one-third more than in 1848. By the well-known law governing the value of currency, one-third having been added to the volume of the currency, a considerable increase is added to nominal prices by the expansion of the circulating medium. According to these reasons, prices are adjust¬ law, ing themselves all over the world to this which regulates values just as the law of gravitation rules the material world. But for our California gold mines the consequences of the paper money inflation would have been much more severe, and it is'certain that the sup¬ ply of the precious metah has produced some changes in prices, and may produce still greater changes. Whatever we may think, then, of the subtle reasOningof these persons, we may suffer them to teach us to acquiesce in the inevitable, is somewhat as prices follows: The are THE 38 virtue of necessity, seeing that we cannot at present take any very decided steps, with a view to contract our own currency, without running imminent risk of creating a commercial pan\c. As we cannot do much just now with a view to force specie payments, it is gratifying to think that the laws of nature are perhaps about.to bring us gradual relief, and will cause our own gold products, by an unex¬ pected avenue, to bring our financial barque to the haven of specie payments. However this may be, there is but one opinion as to the policy of rash experiments with the currency. We have had too much of this already, and the nation is in no humor .to allow any more. As to the other point—the Treasury pur, chases of bonds—public opinion is .less fully developed.. The views we have so often urged fur reducing taxation are how¬ ever becoming more and more popular. And if we reduce our taxes very much we must forego the pleasure of accumu¬ lating any considerable surplus for the purchase of bonds. and to make a [January 8, 1870. CHRONICLE. THE GOVERNOR’S MESSAGE. Among the very various and conflicting critiques evoked by the elaborate Message of Governor Hoffman, it is gratifying to find that most of the financial views set forth in that document are approved on all sides. Nor is this to be applications. It would be far better even that the writ ot injunction should be abolished altogether than that it should continue to be the cause of the unseemly collisions between Judges which have been frequent for some years past.” The only remaining point we have space to notice, refers to the Conspiracy laws. On the difficult ai d long contested points at issue here, we cannot doubt that there will be less unanimity of sentiment between the executive and the legis¬ lature. The following is the argument of the Governor:— monied and'other corporations on ex parte A statute of this State declares it to be a misdemeanor for “ two conspire to commit aoy act injurious to trade or a conspiracy, if it assumes a magnitude which seriously threatens or effects the public welfare, deserves and shouldreceive its proper punishment. This statute, however, has for the most part, since its adoption, more than forty years ago, been of little practical value. I cannot find, after a careful examinathn, that it® provisions have ever been successfully invoked against capitalist® or others for combining to raise the prices of grain, coal and othet articles necessary for the comforts of the whole people, or to reduce the rate of wages It has, however, been evoked on several occasions against and been by the courts construed to apply to journeymen ard others for combining to raise the rate of wages, or to make and enforce regu¬ lations which they deemed necessary tor their mutual welfare. Cases have recently occurred in Westchester County where the law has been enforced against persons engaged in the last-named combinations. I persons to commerce.” Such or more do not believe that the existence of a statute which cau be so con¬ strued as to make such acta criminal is productive of any public benefit. I do believe it to be productive rather of public evil. Like all other laws which from their nature ar? likely to be executed unequally it operates, when it operates at all, oppressively. I recommend, tbeiefore, a repeal of this Conspiracy law, or such a modification of it as, while it forbids a conspiracy to injure the general condition both of this State and of the whole country. It is trade and commerce of the State or country, will do away with that judicial construction which makes it equally ciiminal for citizens to pleasant to find the financial feeling of the State removed so combine for the purpose of seculing an increase of the wages of.labor, far from the noisy perilous scene of party politics. One of oj of establishing and maintaining prudential regulations for their mu¬ wondered at, for these views are not only sound in themselves but they have a direct tendency to establish and improve the the wholesome reforms which the Governor to the payment of interest tual interest and recommends is the State debt. About one third of this debt was contracted in time of specie payments. This part, which amounts to $12,725,210 96, he savs should be payable, principal and interest, in gold. The remaining two-thirds of the debt ($22,122,824 77) was incurred in paper money during the war, and may take its chance with other currency debts bearing gold whenever the country re¬ sumes specie payments. It is now six or seven years since the injustice here sought to be repaired was first inflicted on our State creditors, and the sooner a policy of honesty and as honor is restored to us on the better. The following is Governor Hoffman’s calm and temperate statement of the question. We trust that the Legislature, regardless of political dislikes and party conflicts, will be basis the edifice a unit in putting on of the credit of the great so sound a State of New York “ I recommend that provision be made for the payment in coin, or on that portion of the 8iate debt which was incurred before the late war, and of the principal thereon as it matures. It was contracted in specie, and the honor and good faith of the State forbid that either interest or principal should be paid in a depreciated currency. Failure to pay this interest in gold occurred its equivalent, of the interest first in 1863, and has coutioued to this time. This failure was bad faith and bad. policy. The State has for seven years been repudiating a portion of its obligations, aud I trust you will take prompt measures to save it from further dishonor. The Bounty Fund Debt was con¬ tracted in ojr present currency, and the holders of the bonds claim nothing more than payment in the same*” There are numerous other points discussed in the Message relative to financial policy, such as the payment of United It protection. * is superfluous to say that cases of oppression have occurred, and that acts of injustice have been done in the administration of the conspiracy laws. If a clear case can be made out for a relaxation of its rigor, then justice to individnals requires that some modification of the statues shall be made. But justice to the individual citizen is only one of the considerations which jurisprudence contemplates. Justice to the community must not be overlooked. Society must be protected against cliques of speculators and com¬ binations of capitalists, and in relaxing bonds which now and then harass a few workmen on strike, it must not lay open the whole of our financial machinery to any band of brigands and incendiary capitalists, who may conspire and combine to throw business into confusion by tampering with the money market and manipulating the Gold Room. The fact that for forty years this law has slumbered, and bas scarcely been invoked, except fora minor class of offences, / s surely no reason why we shall be deprived of its protect Ion just at this moment when the combinations of cliques ind speculators are reaching a magnitude never known before n this country, and never paralleled before in any nation in the world. • THE DECLENSION OF SPECULATION. Wall street mourneth. but for their Not for the absence of brokers; superfluity. Not over the lack of speculators ; they do not operate. Not because of the pressure States bonds, the sales or Treasury gold, the redemption of of competition ; but that there is comparatively no busines8 greenbacks, and the resumption of specie payments. These for which to compete. After seven years of high and hilarious matters have a broader scope, and pertain to national policy speculation, eclipsing everything of the kind ever witnessed rather than to State administration. Hence we pass them by perhaps since the famous “tulip mania” of 1634, we find a for the present, and notice but two other suggestions, both of sudden collapse in these transactions, a timidity about taking which are very timely and judicious. The first has reference risks, and an exhaustion of the resources of operators. The to that reckless issue of injunctions which has made our record of business on the Exchange shows that the sales of Courts of Justice so notorious of late in connection with the stock, in 1869, were only 10,500,000 shares, again, t Erie litigation.

Any one familiar with the habitues of Wall street sees just now too plainly the traces quite commonly regarded as merely an expression of a of this severe process of remedy. \ A history of the class of temporary financial depression. To us, however, it appears that this conclusion is not warranted, but on the contrary that speculators known as “outsiders,” would tell of few who the change is a symptom of an improving condition of the have retired with improved fortunes, and of fewer who re¬ general business of the country. Speculation feeds upon main on the street with as much capital as they had on wide and frequent fluctuations in values, and wanes as values entering it. It is a statement which would be borne out by become steadier. Unsteadiness discourages the employment every candid broker that four-filths of these “ outsiders” are of capital in legitimate business investments, and, at the now well nigh bankrupted, while not a few of them are un¬ able to make good their broker’s accounts. It may be same time, attracts into speculation; and hence speculation becomes an inevitable concomitant ofsuch wide derangements asked where has their squandered capital gone ? The in values as resulted from the late war. Since the close o^ answer is, partly to their brokers for commissions and interest, the war, natural forces have been quietly working out an and partly and perhaps more largely into the hands of We have become so - familiar with the excesses eqalization of values ; and the risks of production and of commerce being thereby reduced, the recovery of confidence has drawn back capital from speculative haunts to its more legitimate business employments. So far as this tendency may account for the declension of speculation, the present condition of Wall street is a matter of public gratulation. An important element in this speculative reaction is the steadier course of the gold .premium. • For some months past, the course of the premium has been much more even than formerly; and, whatever may be said of Secretary Boutwell’s management upon other grounds, the large supply of gold placed upon the market through his sales, and the export of securities in lieu of specie, induced by his purchases of bonds, have had the effect of placing the premium, to a large extent, beyond the control of specula¬ tors, and of leaving it more free to be regulated by legitimate influences. This steadiness has not only lessened the induce¬ ments to speculate in gold and produced the contraction in the Gold Room operations above alluded to, but by tending to promote a steadier course of prices generally, it has, so far, counteracted speculation in other branches, and encouraged the employment of capital in business pursuits. Illegitimate speculation contains within itself the elements of ultimate restraint and remedy. By illegitimate specula¬ tion we mean, not those operations based upon the anticipa¬ tion of changes in.values growing out of ordinary natural causes, but such as are accompanied with artificial and forced interference with the natural course of prices. No one clique managers and shrewd and wealthy capitalists, who, from their official position in railroad and other corporations, have been able to absolutely control the course of the market for their own benefit. One very important cause of the pre¬ sent depression arises from the fact that the class of smaller operators have been thus mulcted by a minority of wealthier speculators ; and it is not easy to see how there can be any important revival in these operations until a new class of dupes have been drawn into the market. > Another influence operating in the same direction is the exposure of some prominent speculative deceptions. The artifices, by which the public were drawn into mining schemes and petroleum ventures in 1864 and 1865, have been so completely exploded that speculations of that descrip¬ tion have become absolutely extinct. Following this, came the era of stock “ watering and that process having been applied to nearly every railroad represented on the market, its force also has been spent. Next came the expedient, in most cases more plausible than beneficial, of railroad con¬ solidation, upon which extensive movements have been stimulated in connection with some prominent stocks ; but this class of schemes also appears to have had their day. In connection with each one of these departments, the moral re¬ mains that the schemes have been instrumental in trans¬ ferring money from the mass of small operators into the hands of the few wealthier manipulators. We presume that the inventive resources of our venturous capitalists have yet been exhausted, and that some other methods of with its deceptions slaughtering the innocents will be forthcoming in due time ; ani feints, its clique expedients, its gambling methods of man¬ but there can be no doubt that the absence of these special agement, and its appliances of “puts,” “ calls” and “ corners,’’ stimulants is one of the causes of the present depression of can be at a loss to understand what we mean by this sort of speculation. Upon the whole, there appears to be good reason for interference. In judging of the merits of speculation, it is may be a temporary revival of necessary to keep in view the essential difference between thinking that although there operations connected with natural fluctuations in values speculative operations, yet anything like a return to the and those which we have referred to as associated with special activity of late years is not to be expected.

This factitious species of speculation having within itself no means of improving, on the average the means of those engaged in it, must clerely result, in the long run, unsatisfactorily to the speculator. The larger and shreweder operators, by dint of their superior monetary power, and of their skill in scheming, usually succeed in absorbing the capital of the men of smaller means and inferior sagacity: that the result is simply that one party looses and so another gains, just as at the gambling table, the losers of course being generally in a large majority as to number.

In this way, specula* strength and force. Men are becoming weary of employing capital in other than legitimate pursuits. Experience has proved to them that a gambling use of their means is not only not remunerative but exceedingly risky, far more in their so than business investments; and there have been so many striking illustrations of the liability of speculation to involve merchants in ruin, to lead those in positions of trust to mis¬ appropriate fiduciary funds, to tempt clerks and officials into heavy defalcations, and to demoralize the officers of large corporations, that a certain degree of disreputability has very justly become attached to speculation, which is likely hereafter to impose a salutary check at least upon its excesses.

The steadiness of the premium, together with the coutinued depression in speculation, have caused the traosucti ns of the Go:d Exchange to be very- light, Repeated dibits have been made by a few wealthy operators to influence the premium, but with discouraging results, the largeness of the supply haviug reudered the market.. to a certain extent, unmanageable. The Treasury issued proposals for the sale o' $11,000,000 of coiu during the mouth ; but of this ainouut only $8,00d,000 was actually sold, the bids for $1,000,000 beiag refused as too low, and $2,000,000, anno meed for sale in the last week, being withdrawn, apparently from an indisposition on the part of the. Secretary to unduly depress the premium. The exports of specie fur the month were strictly nominal, and the payments for customs at this port only $6,969,000. At the close of the month the Treasury held $40,L70,380 of piivate coin against certificates, while the average amount of specie iu the associated banks, for the week euaiug on December 3L, was $31,166,908—figures which suf¬ ficiently indicate the unusually heavy supply of gold on the market and in part accouut for the weakness of the premium, Date.

The Solicitor General made an able their verdict was to effect great things—that the commercial world defence for the accused, and argued that if such men as Mr. Barclay required to be purified and regenerated, and although the jury Mr. Bennie, and the late Mr. Gibb embarked in the undertaking, were not to be influenced by any such consideration in giving their and lost many thousands of pounds in it, there must have been verdict, it was to be hoped that this trial and the presence at the grounds for believing that at the time of the transfer the concern bar of men who once stood so high would not he without its salu¬ was in a state of solvency.

In Provisions, we notice almost a panic in hog products.
