The

sensitiveness of railroad officials on the

have reached the culminating point, and now a alight decrease of
one or two per cent is sometimes sufficient to induce them to
withhold their usual monthly returns from publication. One
point should be clearly understood by all our readers in regard
to the comparison of earnings in the current year with those of
corresponding months in the previous year, and this is, that the
earnings of each month as they are given out are only approximate, and in nearly all cases prove to be less than the actual
earnings as made up from completed returns. As a result of this,
the approximate earnings of the current months of this year are

compared with the actual earnings of the same months in 1874,

Tbe Gold MarkeJ.—Gold has further declined, and touched
114f to-day, closing at 114:f. The considerable break in gold
which has taken place in the past ten days, does not seem to be
fully warranted by any corresponding change in the actual situation of affairs, and well informed parties attribute the decline in
large part to the breaking up of a speculative clique which was
bulling the price, and is now reported to have had about $10,000,000 under their control. So far as the immediate influence upou
the market is concerned, too much importance has been placed
upon the purchases of silver by the Secretary of the Treasury, as
there is no prospect of any speedy action on his part which will
affect the gold premium.
The specie shipment thus far, this
week, has been about $1,100,000, of which $600,000 were gold,
and the engagements for to-morrow are reported at $500,000. Ou
gold loans the rates to-day were 2, 3, and 1 per aanuin, and 1-16

At tho election of dltaetors Mr. Livingston made opposition

era in Oroat Britain and elsewhere.
When S. L. M. Barlow presented his TOM on sharas and proxies to the value of $23,631,500
beinc 836,819 votes Mr. Livingston objtteled on the ground
that he did not believe that the proxies submitted represented
aetnal stockholders. Mr. Barlow, however, presented affldavlta
that the aloek was held by le^l holders.
The inspectors o&erad

thaa Hid that ha had othar proxies representing $13,000,000 mora
of stock, bat he did not eoasider it neceaaary to use tbem.
The ticket elected seearad 861,785 votea, while tbe opposition
ticket put forth bv John Livingston secured ouly 750 votes. The
total vote was, therefore. 363,4S.5, representlntr 186848,600 of

Mr. Livingston Mid that he had in his poasaaalon proxies
for $7,000,000. entitling him to 70.000 votea, bat as be ooosidared the election illegal, he would not vole upon tbem. The
(Toaad for the alleged Illegality, he declared, was that proxies

The course of the market for cotton since Monday is precisely
the reverse of that of the last half of the previous week. There
was a further advance of ^c. in spots on Saturday, but Monday
developed dulness, and for the three days following there was a
decline of \q,. each day, at which with gold and exchange a fraction higher there was a fair business for export. To-day, there
was a further decline of ^c, making ^c. since Monday, and the
demand quite limited. For future delivery there has been an
approximation to a panic, with the greatest decline in the early
months, which had been forced up in anticipation of a comer
during August. All indications of such an event seem to
have been dispelled, and dull advices from Europe, a slow business with home spinners, the decline in gold, and favorable
reports from the growing crop, have had no check upon their
depressing influence. Today, there was a further decline of 1-16
@Jc. with great activity and excitement, many operators closing
out their pui chases for the autumn months. After Change there
were sales at 14Jc. for Aug., 14 9-16c. for Sept., 14ic. for Oct. and

Monthly Motexentof Cbop. Below we give our statement
of the moDtbly movement of the crop brought forward to July 1.
To reach the fiffures for the past mooih of this year we take the
total in our Uble of mail returns of July 1 (3,457,034 bales), which
uble brings th«i 6gureH down to, and including July 3 from this
total we Bubstract 1,0613 bales, the receipts (according to the Cotton
Exchange circular) for July 1 and 3, which shows the arrivals at
the porta to Jul? 1 to be 8,456,878 bales. If, now, we deduct from
this the arrivals up to June 1 (3,4(X),803 bales) we have remaining
56.010 bales as the receipts for June, 1875, against 59,501 bales in
June, 1874. Ac.

adds, that some portions of the cotton area were
with drouglit, which, however, was less injurious to
cotton than to other crops. Its injuries were mostly compensated
by the opportunity it afforded for the better working of other
crops.
In Texas cut worms, cotton caterpillars and grasshoppers
were injurious in gome localities. A low isolated reports also
mention cotton lice, but insect depredations so far have not
stTected the crop to an extent wort>k estimating.

Prom tlie foregoing it would appear that compared with last
year' there is a decrease at 3,000 bales this year in the week's
shipments from Bombay to Europe, and that the total movement
since January 1 shows an increase in shipments of 73,000 bales
compared with the corresponding period of 1874.

have also worked out and added to the above table tne
,

percentage received at the ports up to July 1 of each previous
year's total port receipts and total crop. 'Taking the five years
together, the average receipts at the ports to April 1 were 97-29
per cent of the year's total receipts at the ports. If we should
apply this average to tliis year, the total receipts at the ports
would be 3,5.53,000 bales adding then 350,000 for overland and
Southern consumption, we should have a crop of 3,903.000 bales.
;

consider that this year's movement up to this month is
represented by the largest percentage of port receipts of any year
in our record, that of 1871-2, when it was 98-59 per cent as given
above, then the total port receipts for 1874-5 will be 3,506,000
bales, which, with 350,000 bales added for overland and Southern
consumption, would make a crop of 3,856,000 bales.
