British workmen told them some time ago that if the vast
sums they have wasted in strikes during the last few years

are as alleged. Congress should take prompt action in the matter.
The construction of a small breakwater at Crow Slioal, on
tbe New Jersey side of Delaware Bay near Cape May, is also

as well as the necessary improvement to the Delaware Breakwater would be greatly to the advantage of coasting vessels.

securing the large traffic of the Northwest. This amount of road
also entitles the Company to Ten Million Four Hundred Thou-

sand Acres of Land, located in Central Minnesota, Eastern
Dakota, and in the Columbia Valley on the Pacific Coast. The
bonds are secured by a first mortgage on the road, its traffic and
franchise, and on tlie entire land grant received from the Government. The rate of intt^rest is seven and three-tenths, gold, equivalent to about eight and a quarter per cent in currency.
Believing
the security to be ample, ana the rate of interest satisfactory, we
recommend these bonds as a desirable investment. Holders of

Tlic money market. Tlie general rourse of the money market has been one of continued ease, though there wa* a shade of
increased firnmiws noli<'eable. at times, in the earlr part of tha
week. The rates generally paid l)y sUH'k brokers during the iHwt
few days have 1)een 3(i*5 |M'r cent, and previously theri- wer«
some exceptional transacti(ms as liiKh as 6 per rent. The Isnt
bank statement was s:>tnewliat peculiar in its figures, as the net
result was an increase of $1,177,375 In Ih" excess above legal
reserve, notwithstanding an increase of $9,387,000 in depoaits and
a decrease of $2,443,800 In legal tenders.
The statj-ment ronid
h«"(lly be considered very favorable to the loan market, as tha
increase
of
a rise of
in reserve was wliollv the result
$5,i>!)0,(IOO in the specie line, and there was, on the other hand, a
material increase both in loans and deposits, and a decrease,
above stated, in legal tenders.
The course of monetary affairs, so far as onr bank movement ia
concerned, would seem to point towards an early tendency to
hardening rates, s<K>n after the commencement of Antumn
business.
The Bank of England reports a decrease of £.521,000 In specie
this week, and the Bank of France a decn-as*- of 2.500.001) francs.
In the last statementof our associated city banks the total liabilities stood at $269,383,.<i00, and the total reserve at $81,294,100.
being $13,973,375 in excess of 25 per cent of the liabilities an
increase of $1,177,375 from the previous we«'k.
The following statement shows the changes from previous week
and a comparison with 1871 and 1870:

serious injury to the State's credit. The decision of the question
of the reception of Virginia coupons in payment of State taxes
has been postponed till September. In regard to the deduction
of State tax from tha Interest paid this July, the following statement is made The State tax on bonds is 50 cents on each flOO of
value, of which one half is deducted now, and the other half on
the next interest payment (January, 1873). For taxation the
bonds are valued as follows First issue consol bonds valued at
$50 per $100 second issue consol bonds valued at $45 per $100
old and new bonds valued at $48 per $100, after deducting onethird of the face of the bond. Two meetings of South Carolina
bondholders have been held in New York this week, and a prosecution of the State officers was talked of ; a committee was finally
appointed to confer with other bondholders, and report at a sub:

;

;

sequent meeting.
Railroad bonds have been in better inquiry than last week,
though it cannot be said that there has been any decided activity
in these securities. The bond market is (juite unlike that for
stocks, as business is much more steady and never fluctuates so
rapidly nor widely. The large disbursements in July will have
the efl'ect of stimulating bond purchases for two months to come,
but the business will all be transacted quietly, by far the larger
part of it through private sales by brokers, so that the extent of
purchases and sales can never be known as in the case of stock
sales at the Board.

The Gold Market,_Gold has been steady and quite firm,
closing at 114. The principal support of the premium seems to
be found in the immediate and prospective shipments. There is
no great supply of commercial bills of exchange on our market,
and without large purchases of bonds on foreign account, it seems
to be anticipated that shipments of coin must still continue for
some weeks. The engagements for to-morrow are reported at
$3,500,000, and if that amount is actually shipped, the total export of the week would approximate $4,800,000. At the Treasury
sale of $1,000,000 on Thursday the total bids amounted to

election has taken place, and notwithstanding
the decided rumors that the company is to be managed in connection with the New York Central or the Atlantic & Oreat Western
roads, or both, it is hardly i)ossible to believe that the |)resent
Hoard of Directors would do anything which would conflict with
the company's best interests, as they are among the most prominent and respected financial and railroad men of this city. Tlie
most probable difficulty which may arise seems to be that the
Board may not be harmonious, and that iiniiortant changes may
bo made iu the list of directors. The company's statement

concession.
There is no important supply of commercial bills at present (a
few California bills drawn against wheat being among the most
noticeable this week), and without some considerable purchases
of our securities the rates of exchange bid fair to remain quite
firm for the present. It is to be remembered, however, that the
anticipations of a very strong exchange market have frequently
been defeated in the past by unexpected bond transactions.
Specie in the Bank of England and the Bank of France has
declined this week as above noticed.

was slightly depressed early in the week by a disposition which
was manifested to sell several of tlie leading spi^culative stocks,
such as Erie, Lake Sliore, Northwest and Pacific Mail the ett'ect,
however, was not particularly marked, and the impression prevailed that the movement was made (juite as much for the purpose of obtjiining stocks preparatory to-an upward turn as for any
other reason. The market has since been stronger, though business is generally very dull, and was to-day particularly so. Erie
affairs have again absorbed the whole interest of the street

State and Railroad Bonds—The leading Southern State
bonds are about the same in prices as last week, though there is
evidently a feeling of much depression and uncertainty among the
holders of many of the Southern State securities. Th e old bonds
continue to be much more in favor than the new issu es, and even
the old North Carolinas are taken by parties who believe that
they will ultimately be paid. Louisiana bonds are depressed.
The Arkansas Levee bonds, or " certificates " or " warrants," as
they are termed by the State authorities, being regarded as an
obligation now outstanding, repudiated in whole or in part, are a

seems evident that guaranteed stocks would
command higher prices, as the obligation to pay the annual rent
is an absolute liability on the leasing company, and must take
precedence of dividends on its own stock. Thus, in the case of
the Pennsylvania railroad, which has become so conspicuous for
tho great number and importance of its leased roads, the obligation to pay the annual rentals comes prior to any dividends on
the stock of the Pennsylvania road, though it would hardly appear

election can be held in any one year. If two-thirds of
the votes are in favor of making the loan, the county must issue
its bonds, bearing not more than eight per cent interest, within
sixty days, payable at the county treasury or in New York, which
must not be sold at a discount. When issued, the county bonds
are to be deposited with the State Treasurer, who will keep them
until the County Commissioners present an order for them, with
a certificate from the Chief Engineer of the railroad approved by
them of the amount of work done and materials furnished according to the contract for construction, upon which the State Treasurer will deliver bonds to the value of 85 per cent of the work
done, until the work is completed, when the 15 per cent withheld
will be delivered. These bonds must be paid out for construction by the State Treasurer within three years of the time he received them, or they will be cancelled. The county issuing such
bonds is instructed to collect taxes sufficient to pay the interest
and principal when due, and such bonds are made a legal and
valid charge on all its taxable property.
Within thirty days after an election which has resulted favorably,
the County Commissioners are to advertise in thecounty for proposals tor the construction of the proposed road, and are to let the contract to the lowest responsible bidder, " or to the party that will
agiee to build the greatest number of miles of road for the sum appropriated." Authority is given for the condemnation of property,

sioners are authorized to receive donations of land, money and
other property in aid of the road. They are also authorized to
lease the road constructed under the provisions of the act before
or after its completion, for a term of years, to any person or company, which lease must be ratified by a vote of a majority of the
electors of the county, at a meeting called for the purpose.
The provisions of the act are extended to other municipalities
than counties cities, incorporated villages and townships and if
they fail to pay interest or principal of bonds they have issued
for this purpose, the County Commissioners are to levy a tax
for this purpose and collect it of the delinquent municipalities
with the other county taxes.
Another amendment provides that any railroad company which
has been organized for a period of three years may be dissolved
by a vote of two-thirds of the stockholders, provided provision be
made to pay its debts, and also provided that the construction of
the road, it ever commenceil, shall have been abandoned for three

Tlie Greenville Ac Columbia (S. ORallroad.— At a meeting
of the bondholders of the Ureenville 4 Columbia Kailroad Company, held recently at Columbia, S. C, steps were taken to ascertain and classify the actual present indebtedness of the road and
to provide for its settlement. The committee charged with thia
labor reported that the first mortgage bonds could not be trac«d,
and that it was impossible to ascertain which of the guarantee
bonds were accepted. Most of these bonds were surremlered by
the Company to the Bank of the State, near the cloac of the war.
So far as has been ascertained, the indebtedness of the road is
approximately as follow.s First mortgage bonds, $'241,000 guaranteed bonds and certificates, $1,4111.071 non-mortgage bonda,
$195,500; second mortgage lionds, $1,405,000. It is believed that
many of these were obtained fraudulently. Of the bonds issued,
there were used in exchange and payment of debts the amount of
$97,000 on notes, as collaterals, $175,000 bonds in the hands of
H. 11. Kimpton, but which are under control of the company,
$26,500; bonds sold in New York, the liability of which isdenied,
$600,000 l)onds which cannot be traced, and used without any
authority, $096,000; in hands of the company. $^5,1100: touf,
$1,500,000. The road is an Important one to South Carolioa,
being one of the largest and wealthiest in the State, and it is to
be hoped, therefore, that the matter may l>e «pe«dily cleared up.

A Oold Case Decision In 1870 the State of Maryland sued
the Baltimore & Ohio Uailroad Company for the difl'erence between
the value of the currency paid to the State as the dividend upon
the State's preferred stock and gold, which the State claimed it
had a right to receive, up to January 1. 1870. In this suit a
judgment was rendered by the Superior Court of Baltimore for
$381,480 39 in gold, with interest from Mar;:h 14, 1873, and costs.
The Court of Appeals of Maryland have just reversed the judgment. It is understood that the court has decided that the company cannot be held to have contracted to pay the dividend on
the State's preferred stock in coin, but must, on the contrary, be
considered to have bound itself only to pay those dividends in sncli
currency as was a legal tender at the time when the dividends
accrued. These dividends, by the act, are to be paid from the
gross earnings, and they are received necessarily in the currency
of the period.
All Important Suit.— The suit brought by the Railroad Commissioners of Illinois against the Chicag.) & Alton Railroad
Company, under the law of 1871, for discrimination in charges for
transportation of freight and passengers, is now on trial before
Judge Tipton, of the Eighth Judicial Circuit of Illinois, and
involves the question ot the right of a State to control the action
of a cor|ioration created by the State. Directly, the case involves
the forfeiture of the franchise of the road, but this is only a
minor consideration, because the final decision in the Supreme
Court ot the State, or of the I'niied States, concerns directly the
iuttrests of every citizen of tlie whole country, as in its wider
bearing it will establish a princi|>le, one way or the other, as
between railroads and the people, the magnitude of whose results
can hardly be conceived. The case 1ms been before the court for
a long time, delayed by the technicalities of legal rules, Jut will
doubtless now reach a decision.

The English BtockholderB after (jaininjr their Buit in the Uni'ed
States courifl joined what was termed tlio " American Protective
Association," which was designed and organized simply lo protect
the interests of themen.bers. When the Jay Gould administration
was upset and the market advanced, these holders sold out, and
the association no lonirer existed. It was thought that much of it
had been bought by Bischotftiheim & Qoldschmidt, but in fact it
was bought by outside individuals. The transfer books of the
company were closed shortly after this, and the majority of the
purchasers were unable to have the certificxtes transferred in
their names, and in consequence were unable to vote upon it, and
Heath & Rjphael not having the stock were likewise debarred.
In this miinuer almost the entire amount of stock, $20,000,000,
was unrepresented at the election. The Wall street and other
local interosiR were represented
y Mr. S. L. M. Barlow, to the
amount of $1,500,000, and all this was voted in the interest of the
regular ticket. Other large amounts were voted by prominent
bankers by proxies held from the owners. When the polls closed
it was found that only 413,170 shares had been voted, or only a
little over halt of the stock of the comi>any.

begins a few weeks later. The market rules steady, notwithstanding the dullness, and few quotable changes are reported.
Domestic Cotton Goods. There is very little to note of any
class of goods, the market remaining in precisely the same condition as has been reported for weeks past, with perhaps, a slight
improvement in the distribution in some fabrics. The more staple
qualities, as brown and bleached goods, are firmly held, and there
is no pressure on the part of agents to sell, as the lateness of the

The demand is light but there are few offerings at job
Other goods are about as formerly. Canton flannels have
not begun to sell as yet, and no quotations can be given on them.
Domestic Woolen Goods. The market is steady, with an
improved call from clothiers for goods to make up their fall
stocks.
These buyers are beginning to feel the necessity of
taking prompt action, as their season will soon set in, and it is
likely that an active trade in goods adapted to their wants will
be experienced during the next week or so. The clothing interest
purchased largely last year, but their supplies are far below their
requirements. During the current week the demand has been
better, and good styles of fancy cassimeres are taken freely,
especially where some slight concessions are made, yet in amount
sales will not aggregate with last year to date. The general tone
of the market is much better than in cottons, and unless we have
a still further decline in wools we may look for a steadier market
and a large business for the season. Beavers and heavy fabrics
are now being inquired for, but in the way of " posting" rather
than to supply wants.
Foreign Goods. The market is devoid of new features and
business is flat. Dress goods are being placed in order by importers, but the fact that there is to be a reduction of duty on the 1st
proximo caufes many to leave their importations in bond owing
to the absence of any immediate demand for them. There is
some activity in burlaps and heavy flax and linen goods. The
demand for these goods is fully up to the supply, and prices have
gradually been advancing since May, and we can only report rates
as firm at former quotations. Importations continue large, but
are somewhat below those of this time last year.
We annex a few particulars of leading articles of domestic
manufacture, our prices quoted being those of leading Jobbers
