the past half-year. The figures are very satisfactory, as they
show a large falling of in mercantile embarrassments :

that period have been as follows

autumnal demand for money is altogether uncertain ; bat the
more general opinion is that, although there will be some
improvement in it, it will not ansume. any very considerable
proportions. The weather remains favorable for the growing
crops, though the country is now beginning to hope that we
shall soon enter upon a period of hot, maturing weather, the
rains which have been falling during the last month having
been, it is thought, ample for all purposes. The mercantile
classes are looking forward to brilliant results from an abundant yield of agricultural produce, and from a return of pros-

to traders there seems to be evidence of more stability among

The Government having been unable to come to an understanding with France, the question of the new duties on wine has
been abandoned for the present. Mr. Gladstone stated in Parliament, on Thursday evening, that on Monday he should propose
to re-commit the Cu.stoms and Inland Revenue bill pro forma,
and in the re-printed bill he should not include the clause relating to the wine duties.
It is very probable that when the
budget is introduced next year the question will have been fully
discussed with the French Government and with the trade generally, and that an arrangement satisfactory to most parties
will be arrived at.
The revenue returns are more satisfactory, but for the quarter there is a decrease in the receipts from customs duties of
£146,000, compared with last year. As regards other sources of
revenue, however, there is an improvement, and the net increase
for the past quarter, compared with 1879, is £097,008. The
following is an abstract of the gross produce of the revenue of
the United Kingdom in the undermentioned periods ended June
30, 1880, compared with the corresponding periods of the preceding year:

Tbe money Market and Financial Situation. Xhe financial markets present the usual aspect of midsummer lethargy.
Mr. Gould is off for the mountains; Mr. Keene is much of the
time at Newport, and the giants of the stock market are generally absent from their usual haunts. The tone, however, is one
of decided firmness, and if buyers are not in heavy force, neither
are there large orders to sell, and the principal holders of stocks
are satisfied to keep them at present figures and with the existing outlook. It seems to be tolerably certain that the grain
crop of the country, taken altogether, is going to be a large
one. and the main question yet to be settled is, whether prices
are likely to decline materially during the coming season, owing
to a smaller demand for erport. Should prices be even fairly
maintained, and grain and cotton go forward as they did last
year, a renewed importation of gold would seem to be almost
inevitable. Such a movement would al.so be as.sisted by the
demand for railroad and other American securities abroad,
which keeps up quite steadily, although pub ic attention is but
little drawn to the matter.

State and Railroad Bonds. The transactions in State bonds
have been small, but the prices of the Southern bonds are
strong, except for Virginias, which are prejudiced by the readjusters' agitation.
Railroad bonds are very strong, and the great demand for investments and the high prices of Government bonds, which make
them pay only about 3>6 per cent per annum, push up the prices
of first-class railroad bonds to quotations which were unknown
here until within the past year.

And this without taking into account the probal)le business which 200
miles of only partially finished roiul, much of which is not yet oi>crated,
will give us.
The very rapidity of the growth of the Atchison Road and the corresponding increase of the receipts require us to furnish at once the facilities which are generally called for only after many years of successful
business.
The directors,
having in vicwtliat the road has, including the branches
owns, only a little over .$16,000 per mile of stock, and believing that
there is a reasonable prospect of its being able to pay eight per cent on
an increased capital, consider it for your interest to make the necessary
investment in as conservative a manner as possible; aud they propose,
in order to meet the wants of construction, not to increase the debt, but
to make au issue of stock at par to the stockholders, to the amount of ten
per cent of the present capital.
Proposal.— Thii company offers to stockholders of record at the close
of business, July 24, a number of shares at par equal to one-tenth of the
amount standing to their credit on the books of the company, payable
in four iustalmciits— Aug. 14, Sept. 1, Oct, 1, Nov. 1, 1880.
This stock will be delivered wiien paid for in full. Receipts will be
given on account of partial payments. The Assistant Treasurer is
authorized to allow 5 per cent on any prepayments after allotment.
The holders of New .Mexico & Sontheru Pacific sliares, under Circular
it
48, who have agreed to exchange them for Atchison Topeka <& Santa Fe
shares, under Circular 50, wUl be allowed to subscribe for their projiortion.
Fractional or other rights can be assigned in a foi-m which can be
obtained at the otlice.
Any shares not taken Aug. 10 will be subject to the disposition of the

Boston Hartford & Erie. In pursuance of the plan to
overthrow, if possible, the former eale of this road in foreclosure, a bill in equity has been filed in the United States Circuit
Court for the District of Massachusetts by William T. Graham,
a native of Inniskillen, Ireland, and the owner of 500 shares of
stock of the Boston Hartford & Erie Company. The bill claims
that the Boston Hartford & Erie reorganization was invalid, as
also the Berdell mortgage. At the meeting of stockholdei^s in
New York, July 15, the report of the committee previously
appointed was adopted. The report advised the uniting in the
prosecution of the Glrahara suit to set aside the sale under foreclosure of the Berdell mortgage, and. for the purpose of raising
money, proposed an assessment of 25 cents on each share of
stock. It was agreed that books of registry should be opened
next Monday at the office of President Roonev, No. 3 Pine
Street, and that the period of ninety days from that date should
be allowed for the registry and transfer of the stock. The
proceeds of the a.ssessment will be received and expended by the
committee previously appointed.
The Supreme Court of Massachusetts decided on the 8th
that the Berdell mortgage bonds of the Hartf'jrd & Erie Railway are exchangeable for stock in the New York & New Eng-land Railway after some of the interest coupons have been paid.
The bonds in suit are of the i^sue of $5,000,000 of what are
known as the guaranteed bonds. The N. Y. & New England
Co. claimed that it was not required to issue stock on bonds
where the coupons had in part been paid, there being some
$500,000 of these interest coupons paid.
Buffalo & Southwestern.—A despatch from Buffalo, July 8,
said that the directors of the Buffalo & Southwestern Railroad
had leased their road to the New York Lake Erie & Western
Railroad Company for a term of ninety-nine yeai s. Concerning
this, the Buifalo Commercial Advertiser publishes the following
statement from the officers of the company
" The announcement made that the lease had been consummated was premature. The facts are simply these: A suggestion, ill the nature of a proposition, by the New York Lake

John Baird, A. M. Billings, William R. Garrison, Arthur Leary,
Fausta Mora and John JT McCook. The inspectors of the next
election are Messrs. Mortimer Ward and William Tobin. The
Herald says that after Mr. Pullman had started for Chicago,
leaving General Horace Porter to vote on 5,000 shares in the interest of the Pullman- Porter-Field party, Mr. William R. Garrison entered the company's office with a scratched ticket and
voted that ticket on upward of 11,000 shares; and the count
showed that the 11,000 shares had defeated Messrs. Pullman,
Porter and William Adams, Jr., and elected in their stead Mr. A.
V. Stout, President of the Shoe and Leather Bank, Mr. Fausta
Mora, of Paris, and Mr. Arthur Leary, one of the directors of
the Shoe and Leather Bank. The result was a surprise to the

i'our fifth question states that the Kansas Pacific and Denver Pacific have been consolidated with the Union Pacific, and
asks if payment for services over these lines should be withheld

A. As stated in the second answer, the compensation should
be entirely withheld, until otherwise directed by the Court,
because the Kansas Pacific Railway Company is indebted for
interest paid by the United States upon its subsidy bonds

The above fiffures indicate an increase in the cotton in sight tonight of 337,837 bales as compared with the same date of 1879,
tLO. inerease ot 101,317 bales as compared with the corresponding
date of 1878, and a decrease of 447,537 bales as compared with 1877.
In the preceding visible supply table we have heretofore only
included the interior stocks at the 7 original interior towns.
As we did not have the record of the new interior towns for the
four years, we could not make a comparison in any other way.
That difficulty no lont,er exists, and we therefore make the following comparison, whicli includes the stocks at the 19 towns
.given weekly in our table of interior stocks instead of only the
old 7 towns.
shall continue this double statement for a
time but finally shall simply substitute the 19 towns for the 7
towns in the preceding table.

The weather during June was generally favorable -more favorable than last year in all the counties except 7, which are among the
!nio»t productive. Very little land was abandoned— about an average of
2 i>er cent in 6 of the most productive counties, on account of tlie
insufficiency of labor for the acreage planted. The stands are fair to
good and the plant is blooming and forming well. The present condition
of the crop Is generally good, some few correspondents reporting it not
good on account of grass. As compared with last year the condition is
from as good to better, except iu 8 of the most productive counties for
reasons noted above.
