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 Money withdrawn Jast week by corporations, in preparation for the payment of dividends, is now finding its way back into the banks, and is again available for street loans.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 disposition to Unite* Stat.-s Bonds.—The Governments have this week ex¬ than usual interest, as the more Percent.

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. 4 _ ^ following were the closing quotations at compared with those of the six preceding weeks: The Cumberland Coal Quicksilver Canton Co Mariposa pref....

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, and the following are the closing quotations: at 50 THE CHRONICLE.

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.

The receipts of Wheat at the Western markets are largely in¬ creased, and have attracted some attention here.
