For several days next preceding
the close of the month, holders of gold have had to pay from 1-16
to £ per cent per day for having it carried. The exports of coin
during the month have been only $1,234,000, against $6,843,000
for the same period of last year, and there is consequently a corre¬
spondingly large supply of gold Jupon^the market.

PRICES OF MERCHANDISE.
Iu the table which follows, a comparison is made of the
prices of
the principal articles of commerce in the New York market about
the first of January in the past eight years. This
comparison is
extremely interesting, as it shows the course of prices at the several
periods, from the commencement of the war to the period of great¬
est inflation and thence down to the present time. As
the peculiar
value of this statement is seen at a glance, any extended comment
upon it is unnecessary.

The easier feeling in money has facilitated
specu’ative buying, and the dealers have consequently been free
purchasers. The money disbursed the payment of interest and
dividends has to a large extent sought reinvestment in this class of
securities, while from the country and city banks there hai been an
active demand.
A very large amount of bonds has in this way
been taken off the market, without any proportionate increase of
the supply, and prices have consequently advanced l(gHf on the
bonds chiefly held at home, and
on Sixty-Twos and 2$ on Sixes
of 18 :1. The market exhibits a remarkably strong undertone, and
dealers show a desire to contract for future delivery at anything
near the current prices.
Investors are holding securities with more
steadiness and the supply on the market is strictly limited.

securities, compared with preceding weeks:

it indicated the condition of the
of the quarterly statement, at a period of extraor¬

dinary stringency in money. The statement showed an increase of
$2,491,000 in the surplus over legal reserve, and was so far satisfac¬
tory. This gain, however, was almost entirely in specie, the in¬
crease in which was $2,'795,COO, while the addition to the legaltenders was only $196,000. The net deposits showed a gain
of $1,986,000, while the loans were down $2,252,000. This ex.
hibit was, on the whole, a decided improvement upon that of the
previous week, and the return of to-morrow afternoon is likely to
show a still more conservative condition of the banks.
The week opened with a very excited and easy condition of the
/oan market. The banks bad little to lend and the supply of loan¬
able funds appeared to be in the hands of parties disposed to exact
the highest possible interest. Money was loaned mainly through
agents, who used their position on the stock board for exciting
competition. The consequence was that, in addition to the legal
rate, a commission of $@f Per cent Per day was very generally
paid. The brokers, finding that the loan market was thus placed
under the control of a few money dealers, adopted a rule forbidding
their members to deal in money at their respective boards or in the
long room, under penalty. At the same time, the legality and the
safety of transactions at beyond the legal rate of interest became a
matter of some solicitude among lenders. From these causes there
was a sudden suspension of the attempts to control the supply of
money and to exact special rates, and for the last two days loans
have been made almrst exclusively at 7 per cent currency. Con¬
sequently with these influences, there has been a return of currency
from the West in moderate amounts; which is to be regarded as
the beginning of a general reflux movement from that section.
Money withdrawn Jast week by corporations, in preparation for the
payment of dividends, is now finding its way back into the banks,
and is again available for street loans. Currency is still being sent
to the South; but not in .amounts sufficient to neutralise the case
accruing from other causes. The crisis has now evidently passec
its climax, and it may be safely concluded that we have enterec
upon the reflux movement which always, at this season, brings back

Stocks.—The easier tone of the

market has given a freer scope to the strong upward tendency
policy of Mr. Vanderbilt in declaring stock,
dividends has been so successful as a speculative maneuver that the
management of other roads has become infected with the idea, and
stcck dividends by other companies are now said to be in contem¬
plation* The efforts of the New York Central and Erie Compa¬
nies to secure through routes to the Western cities and the Pacific
road have affected more or less most of the Western stocks repre¬
sented on the Stock Exchange, producing in some cases an extrava
gant advance. Under these influences the whole market has been
unusually buoyant, and for the last three days the transactions have
peen very large. The chief advance has been on Rock Island, which
"rom 118f, our last quotation, has to-day sold aJt 123$; Fort
Wayne has advanced 5$ ; St. Paul, 4 ; Wabash, 3$; Pacific Mail
If; and Michigan Southern, 3$. Outside operators do not appear
to have taken much part in this movement; but the cliques show
very considerable confidence in the programme to be developed by
the Central and Erie roads developing an ultimately large demand
for stocks. Erie has to-day sold up to 40f ©$, apparently in con¬
sequence of the Directors having now secured a through broad
gaage route to the Mississippi. The Company having failed in its
money

of the share market. The

negotiations with the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton road, has
made arrangements for the building of a line at once from Dayton
to Cincinnati, on the old Air Line route, which gives Erie a
through line to St. Louis, via the Ohio and Mississippi road, and
obviates the payment of toll to the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton road.

Thursday Nisht. Doc. 31.

The week opened with an active demand and
for several of the

buoyant prices
leading staples, the business being to a large
extent of a
speculative character. The past two days, how¬ ||
**
ever, have put some check upon speculation, and
_r
brought
**
some reaction to the
advance in prices. There is, neverthe
®
£
less, a much improved tone in mercantile circles.

The market for

@$28 50 per bbl.; Prime Steam Lard to
20c., and Cumber¬
land Bacon to
14^@14fc. per pound. But the close is quiet.
The speculative basis of the
advance is the alleged short
of swine at the West. We
crop
have seen no decided verification
of this
statement, when we take the increased
weight into
the account. If current
high prices have jmy sound basis,
it is in the
delay of Great Britain to purchase the
which she
obviously needs until she must do so in supplies

in possession of the returns show
ing the receipts, experts, &e., of cotton for the week end.

it appears that the total receipts for the seven days have
reached 73,827 bales, (against 86,159* bales last week, 89,113*
bales the previous week, and 81,481 bales three weeks since,)
making the aggregate receipts since September 1, 1868 up tG
this date, 1,336,827 bales, against 1,047,091 bales for the same
period in 1867, being an excess this season over last season of
289,736 bales. We have this week added to our aggregate
receipts the shipments overland, up to Jan. 1, direct to manu

prospect of any considerable
materially diminished con¬

sumption in Manchester, and an improvement in the stock
Liverpool. Besides, the large short interest at prices
much below present rates, must have a tendency to keep the
market firm, Sales for delivery this month have been made
both here and at Liverpool which must be covered, aud if
they are of the extent claimed, may continue to impart con¬
siderable excitement to the market, especially while the South
is sending forward orders to purchase, having confidence in
much higher rates, based on reduced estimates of the crop.
The business for forward delivery has been quite limited this
week until to-day, the total reaching only about 1,600 bales
(all low middling), there being very few sellers even at the
high rates obtained. But to-day there have been further
sales amounting to 1,800 bales.
We note sales of 450 bales
for February at 264-c.,and 150 bales for March at same price;
300 bales for February or March, 100 for January or Febru¬
ary, and 100 bales for February at 26c., and 50 bales for
each February and March at 26-^c.; and to-day 400 bales
tor February and ?00 bales for January at 20f., and ],200
bales terms private. For immediate delivery the total sales
of the week foot up 32,169 bales (including 3,590 bale3 to
arrive), of which 8,296 bales were taken by spinners, 12,171
bales on speculation, 6,717 bales for export, 4,985 in transit,

Consumption and Receipts.—In accordance with the notice
given in give a list of the vessels in which these shipments from all ports, both
North and South, have been made :
this report a few weeks since, we add to our
receipts of cotton to-day

the amount sent overland since

September 1, 1868, direct to the mills.
Heretofore it has been customary to wait till the close of the
year be¬
fore making these additions ; but as the
shipments overland have
increased each season since the war closed,
running tables kept on the
old plan have become less and less
satisfactory, furnishing little indica*
tion of the cotton movement.
The figures we give
to-day are to Jan'
1, 1869.

Hereafter we shall correct our table on the second
so that on the first of September next it will
only
be necessary to add the Southern
consumption (which this year will not
exceed 100,000 bales) and the usual
slight corrections for the Southern
ports to complete the crop statement. It will be seen that for the
four months ending
January 1, 1869, the direct 'shipments to the mills
have reached 193,000jba!es,j;making the total
’receipts up to this time
(including the telegrams of to-night) 1,263,000 bales. For the satisfac¬

Wheat has been firmer on export orders. Shippers

have
been able to buy about 150,000 bushels this week, mainly at
about 81 59@1 63 for No. 2 Spring, in store and afloat,
and holders have latterly been firm with buyers to some ex¬
tent at 81 61@1 62.
Millers have done but little, not
wishing to compete with shippers. The liberal receipts of
California Wheat have caused a decline in that quality to
