retarding or
encouraging the movement during the period covered by
this table, and need not,
therefore, stop to repeat them
now.
But one point brought out
by these figures can not
be too constantly borne in mind arid that is that
during
the last four years the flow of
population this way has
been on a scale never before
equalled. During those
years we have added to our number by immigration no
less than 2,514,791 persons, while
in the preceding nine
years the total was no more than 2,354,934 persons. This
shows strikingly the difference between the
present and
former periods.
Two and a half millions addition—
most of it a
very desirable addition—to the nation’s
wealth producers by
immigration alone in four years, is an
extremely large force at work, contributing to stimulate
activity in every department of trade and business. The
agricultural districts feel the influence in a wider area
devoted to farming ; manufacturers in the increased con¬
sumption under the wants of this additional popu¬
lation ; railroads in the
enlarged traffic in marketing
productions and distributing supplies.
At present, for
The last column in this

table, taken in conjunction with
by immigration, enables us to deter¬
pretty closely the present total annual increase in
population. We find that the increase by reproduction
mine
between 1870
and
1880
was
22-78 per cent*
In all the
preceding periods, excepting only 1860-70 when our
numbers were decimated
by war, the proportion was
larger; and with the growing importance of the
foreign element in the population, and their greater
fecundity, it is probable that 25

Accordingly, if these figures be correct, our population
now
amounts to but
little less than 56 millions.
The bear¬
ing of this upon trade and business generally we have
already alluded to.
As to the
nationality of the immigrants, Germany still
has a large
preponderance, having now for some years
furnished nearly one-third the arrivals.
England comes
next, and Ireland occupies third position* As to the
Dominion of Canada, which
nominally has a total some¬

our
companies find corrections necessary in their estimated figures,
are fully written up ; and it
is one of the difficulties attending the work of compiling rail¬
road earnings to obtain and note these corrections, and thus
keep the current totals—that is, the totals from the 1st of Janu¬
ary up to the close of the month last reported—reasonably accu¬
rate.
In the case of many of the smaller roads, the differences
do not usually amount to much, but with a road like the Union
Pacific, having a large and complicated system of mileage and
accounts, it is easy to see that the preliminary result might
vary $1CO,000 either way from the final and actual result. In
fact, it does so vary, and since this is well understood now,
there would seem no reason for complaint, provided only the
company makes public its actual figures as regularly as it
furnishes the approximate figures. This the Union Pacific now
does, and we incorporate the corrections as fast as made.
The Boston Post’s mistake is, in making an aggregation of esti¬
mates, all of which have been superseded by the corrected returns.

London, Saturday, July 7, 1883.
The money
market, daring the past week, has been
much con¬
the
trolled by the requirements of the community incidental to
close of the half-year, and by the distribution of the interest due
on
the
public funds.
There has, however, been no material
change in the rates of discount, or in the charge for interest
for short loan-; but there have been some important transfers of
money,which, however, can be expected to exerciser-only a tempo¬
rary inlluence. There is still a complaint that mercantile bills are
very scarce, and, judging from the great quietness which pre¬
vails, not only in commercial, but also in financial, circles, there
is little if any reason for anticipating an increase in it.
Im¬
portant failures have obviously a depressing effect, and not
even the continuance of favorable weather for
the crops has
apparently any stimulating influence. The supply of money
is not abundant, but at the present time it is adequate to the
wants of the community, and the tendency of the quotations
is in favor of ease.
It is contended by many that any improve¬
ment in the demand for loans or discount accommodation
would speedily acquaint us with the fact that money is by no
means in abundant supply.
No doubt that would be so, but
there must be a large return of confidence in most circles of
business before money will become scarce because of any con¬
siderable increase in the commercial demand.

The following is a statement of the exports (exclusive of
specie) from the port of New York to foreign ports for the
week ending July 17, and from January 1 to date:
originally granted to the Texas & Pacific. The New York
Times comments upon the matter
editorially as follows :
Not one acre of the Texas Pacific
Company’s land grant in
New Mexico and Ariz >na has been
earned,by any company. The
of
“
company received a liberal grant from the State of Texas, and
also a conditional grant from the United States of
25,000 acres
per mile in the two Territories ; but it failed to earn any part of
the Territorial grant, not because its road in the
Territories
was not built within the
specified time, but because it has
never turned a
spadeful of earth or put down a single rail out¬
side of the State of Texas. AuotherrDad—the Southern

—has been built by another

On Nov. 26,
1881, C. P. HuntiDgton, representing the Central Pacific and
Southern Pacific, and Jay Gould,
representing the Texas Pa¬
cific, entered into an agreement by which Mr. Gould undertook
to transfer to the Southern Pacific the land
grant in the Terri¬
tories, a grant to which he had no title. A deed
purporting
to convey this vast property, rich in mineral and
agricultural
wealth, to the Southern Pacific was signed on Jan. 18, 1882.
From the day when the agreement was made, those who
repre¬
sent the interests of the Southern Pacific and Central
Pacific have
been trying, by hook aad by crook, to induce
Cuiigres3 or the
Interior Department to recognize and
approve the so-called
‘
transfer.’ Congress refused to do anything in that
direction.
On March 20, 1883, the President of the Southern
Pacific for¬
warded a letter to President Arthur,
demanding that the Gov¬
ernment should issue to the
company patents for this vast
tract of land.
As soon as it became known that Mr. Crocker
had made this application protests in the name of the
people
were filed by
prominent members of Congress.

mortgage bonds are forty-year 5 percents, and are guaranteed
by the Delaware Lackawanna & Western Company.
Richmond & Danville.—At a
meeting of the directors of
the Richmond & Danville Railroad
Company, in New York, a
resolution was passed in favor of
increasing the capital stock
of the company from $5,000,000 to $7,000,000.
A meeting of
the stockholders to vote on the
proposition will be held at
Richmond in September. The new stock will be offered to
the
stockholders at a price which will be fixed at the
meeting,
and which will be sufficient to cancel the
present floating debt
with the proceeds. It is said at the
company’s office that if
the stockholders will not subscribe to the new stock the
cred¬
itors will accept it in satisfaction of the
floating debt, which is
reported to be about $900,000.
Somerset (Me.)—At a meeting held July 11, the stockholders
of this company voted to surrender
possession of the property
to the bondholders so soon as
they should be prepared to
receive it. The bondholders at the same time took
the neces¬
sary action to form a corporation, and will take possession as
soon as the
necessary legal formalities can be completed. The
road extends from West Waterville, Me., to
Anson, 25 miles ;
the bonded debt is $450,000, and no interest has been
paid upon
it for several years.

REPORTS.
Oregon and Transcontinental Company.
{For the year ending June 30, 1883.)
At the beginning of his annual report Mr. Henry Villard, the
President, recalls the purposes^for which this company was
formed, as follows, viz :
“First—To acquire and hold a controlling interest in the
stocks of the Northern Pacific and Oregon Railway & Naviga¬
tion companies.
Second—To promote the company’s own interest, as the
holder of such stocks, by the creation of such auxiliary systems
of railroad, steamship and steamboat lines as wouid tend to
protect and increase the transportation business of these two
corporations.
Third.—To engage in such other commercial and industrial
enterprises as would tend to hasten and widen the general
development of the States and Territories traversed by the
Northern Pacific and Oregon Railway and Navigation Com¬
panies’ lines.”
Mr. Yillard remarks : “ To demonstrate the fitness and profit¬
“
“
ableness of cur work, it suffices to refer to the fact that we
have undertaken the general development of a
territory repre¬
Northern Pacific Fergus Falls & Black
Hills branch, on the Red River, and twenty miles more of
partly finished grade
upon another line.
All the branch lines constructed and being constructed so
far in Minnesota, Dakota and Montana, have been and will be
financiered under the plan first communicated to you
by cir¬
cular of May 31, 18S2, and subsequently reprinted in our first
annual report. But in the case of one of the branches, that
“
is, the Columbia & Palouse- Railway, in Eastern Washington
Territory, the greater cost of the line compelled the adoption
of a different plan, according to which a total issue of
$30,000
per mile of finished road in first mortgage collateral trust
bonds will be made by this company against a like amount of
the first mortgage* bonds of the Columbia & Palouse
Railway
Company.” * * *
“The amounts of the advances to the Northern Pacific varied
considerably in the
course of the year.
Their maximum
$8,338,833, while at the close of business on June
30th they were $2,7i9,299.
All advances were secured by thepledge of the assets of the debtor company.”
The Oregon & California Railroad

Anderson Lebanon & St. Louis.—The United States Circuit
Court in Indianapolis has granted a decree of foreclosure and
sale against this road, which has lately been known as the
Cleveland Indiana & St. Louis. The sale will take place as
soon as the necessary legal notice can be given.
The road
extends from Anderson, Ind.,to Noblesvilie, eighteen miles; the
bonded debt is $286,000.
Brooklyn City Bonds.—Proposals were opened by the Mayor
and
Comptroller last week for the purchase of $700,000 of city
bonds which had been advertised for sale by the local authori¬
ties, namely: $500,000 of 10-40 4 per cent arrearage bonds,
redeemable July 1st, 1923, or in ten years from the present time
at the option of the city, and $200,000 4 per cent local improve¬
ment bonds payable in'ten years.
In response to the advertise¬

were
sent in, of which

The Maine Central will issue its

prepared in New York, and will soon be placed upon the market.
The $750,000 of bonds issued by the Shore Line Railroad will
be placed in the hands of some strong trust
company as col¬
lateral security for the like amount issued by the Maine Cen¬
tral. The latter corporation will pay to the trust
company the
one per cent which is to
go to create the sinking fund for the
extinguishment of the original bonds of -4he Shore Line. When
this debt, principal and interest, has been discharged
according
to the terms of the lease, as above stated, the Shore Line comes

There have been
disturbing influences unfavorable to trade
during the past week. The Stock Exchange was at times much
depressed, and on Thursday, a “ strike ” of telegraph operators

give currency to rumors which have a decided effect upon

interest asserted itself, and to-day the
highest figures
were $1 00/2@$l 06%, and the
closing $1 O5%(0$1 06. Ingot
copper was about steady, and 350,000 lbs. Lake have been sold
at 15%@15/£c.
American and Scotch pig irons are firm, and
only moderate offerings are noticed. As regards American, it
may be said that the mills are busily engaged on old contracts,
and in some sections the production has been curtailed by the
blowing out of a number of furnaces. Wool has improved
somewhat, although the movement is still small.
Ocean freight berth room has improved ; the offerings are
now quite small, and all rates are
firmly quoted. Oil tonnage
is scarce and well maintained ; grain to Liverpool by steam
quoted 5d.; cotton, %d.; flour, 13s. 9d.@15s; bacon, 15@20s.;
cheese, 30@40s.; grain to London by steam, 5}>d.; do. to Glas¬
gow, 5/»?@6d.; do. to Bristol and Hull, 6d. asked ; do. to Avonmouth from store, 5%d.; do. to Antwerp,Gd.; do. to Rotter¬
dam and Amsterdam, 14c.; do. to Havre, 12c.

morning—in fact, the lowest of the week—but the close was
slightly dearer. A smart advance on Thursday morning was
soon lost, and the close was easier.
To-day the opening was
dull and weak, but there was a quick rally on rumors that
caterpillars had begun to do some damage, and the close was
several points dearer. Cotton on the spot has met with a
moderate demand for home consumption, and a little was
done for export: but slow progress has been made in reducing
stocks, and prices have further declined. Quotations were re¬
duced 1-16c. on Monday.
To day the market was quiet and
easy, middling uplands closing at 10c.
The strike of the tele¬
graph operators began on Thursday afternoon to prevent the
receipt of the Exchange's cotton statistics and weather re¬
ports from the South, as well as private advices, and in this
way to some extent checked business.

Plantations.—The
following table is
prepared for the purpose of indicating the actual movement each
week from the plantations. Receipts at the outports are some¬
times misleading, as they are made up more largely one year
than another at the expense of the interior stocks. We reach
therefore, a safer conclusion through a comparative statement
like the following. In reply to frequent inquiries we will add
that these figures, of course, do not include overland receipts or
Southern consumption; they are simply a statement of the
weekly movement from the plantations of that part of the crop
which finally reaches the market through the out-ports.

The above statement shows—1. That the total receipts from
the
plantations since September 1, 1882, 'were 5,972,948 bales; in
1881-82 were 4,635,062 bales; in 1880-81 were 5,768,325 bales.
2. That, although the receipts at the out-ports the past week
were 9,208
bales, the actual movement from plantations was
4,685
bales,
the balance being taken from the stocks at
only
the interior towns.
Last year the receipts from the planta¬

bination which has decided to advance
prices, to take effect
to-day. This has brought buyers into market, and lots have
been taken freely. The feeling is
very firm, and sellers are
refusing to accept less than 9%c. for 1% lbs., 9%c. for 1%
lbs.,
10>2C. for 2 lbs., and ll%c, for standard grades. Butts
are not
very active, only a light jobbing business
being noted on spot.
A few transactions are
reported to have been made for furture
delivery, but the. quantity was not stated.' Prices are about
steady and sellers are quoting l%@2c. for paper grades, and
2@2/2C. for bagging qualities.

irregular demand, aufl upon the whole sluggish, but
some fair sales were made to cloth and dry goods jobbers, and
a few duplicate orders were received from the clothing* trade.
Satinets were rather more active, and a somewhat better busi¬
ness in Kentucky jeans and doeskins was reported in some
quarters. Cloakings have met with increased attention, and
there was a continued good demand for the most popular
makes of sackings.
Flannels were fairly active and generally
steady in price, but blankets were rather slow iu asrents’
bands, and prices of the latter are low and unremunerative to
manufacturers. Dress goods have been in better request, both
all-wool and worsted fabrics having been distributed in impor¬
tant quantities by manufacturers’ agents.
Carpets were iu
good demand, and a very fair business was done in hosiery
in
silks, linens, white goods and laces were lightly dealt iD, and
men’s wear woolens were sluggish. Jobbers from distant mar¬
kets have been the principal buyers, but there are indications

dry goods trade has not materially
changed the past week. Agents for domestic manufacturers
have experienced a better demand for pertain autumn fabrics,
as dress goods, sackings, prints, ginghams, &c., and there was
such a steady call for staple goods, and for small parcels of
summer fabrics required for immediate consumption, that the
volume of business in this connection was fairly satisfactory.
There was a moderate and somewhat irregular movement in
foreign goods from first hands, and the jobbing trade (though
naturally quiet) was of fair proportions for the time of year.
The outcome of the spring business has been much more favor¬
