The body of the work Is preceded by an Introduction giving a slcetch of the rise and progress
of internal Improvements, and of the internal commerce of the United States ; to which is added

but on Tuesday night there was a sharp thunder storm over the
kingdom, and since then the temperature has been much lower,
and a moderate quantity of rain has fallen. The crops are
making steady progress, and there is now much less danger of
the pastures being dried up. The wheat trade has been ei«eedingly quiet, and the tendency of prices has been in favor of
buyers, though not to any important extent. The hop crop
promises to be abundant.
During the week ended July 2 the sales of home-grown
wheat in the 150 principal markets of England and Wales
amounted to only 19,371 quarters, against 21,471 quarters last
year and 34,904 quarters in 1879 ; while it is computed that in
the whole kingdom they were 77,500 quarters, against 86,000
quarters and 140,000 quarters in 1880 and 1879 respectively.
Since harvest the sales in the 150 principal markets have
amounted
to 1,532,935 quarters, against 1,297,175 quarters in
the corresponding period of
last season and 2,349,370 quarters
the estimate for the whole kingdom being 6,131,740
quarters, against 5,228,800 qrs. and 9,401,480 qrs. in the two
previous seasons respectively. Without reckoning the supplies
of produce furnished ex-granary at the commencement of the
season, it is estimated that the following quantities of

for the fiscal year ending Jlay 31, 1881, is as follows: The
receipts of the year were about $6,000 in excess of last year
and the expenses show an increase of abont $9,000. The
increase in expenses was in the item of taxes and water-rents,
which were in 1880 about .$7,000 and in 1881 abont $16,000. The
corapany received during the year from sale of stock of Chemical Co., $11,875, from .safe of real estate $184,174, and from the
Union RR. Co. (on account of money advanced by Canton Co.),
$80,600. The $184,000 received fro-n sale of real estate wan
handed over to the trustees of the Canton Company mortgage
bonds, and an equal number of bonds were drawn, redeemed at
par and canceled, as provided for in the deed of trust. In
addition to the real estate owned by the Canton Company,
some 2,500 acres of land and improvements, the Company
owns Union Railroad stock $J94,0O0, notes of Union Railroad
for land purcha.sed and loans $508,236, and annuiti-s at 6 per

Chicago & Iowa.— A dispatch from Rockford, III., July 14,
says that the Chicago & Iowa Railroad Company, through their
attorneys, are taking testimony as to the first mortgage bonds,
showing the ownership of them, with a view of taking them ap
under an order they expect to obtain from the court.
Another dispatch states that the Chicago & Iowa Railroad
stock held by the city of Aurora, Ills., will be .sold at auction
on Saturday, July 23. The par value is $100,000 and the upset
price $130,000. This has been decided to be the valid stock in
the Chicago & Iowa Railroad and controls the organization of
the company and its 84 miles of road, from Aurora to Forrestown, making a very desirable link between Chicago and the
Northwest for a comparatively small sum. In addition to the
above this road has a disputecl claim on the Chicago Burlington & Quincy Road for a rebate on the freight transferred to
the latter road at Aurora under an old contract. The sum now
claimed is in the neighborhood of $600,000. The road is now
in the hands of a Receiver and will be transferred to the purchasers of this stock as soon as the sale is made and a decision
of the court can be reached.

advanced to 76Mc., though early in the day there were sales at
76%c. All metals were quiet but generally steady. Lead was
an exception, having sold up to 4-82>2@4'&0c. for common

July deliveries, and it was thought that these might develope
some weakness in prices. But, although the tenders were considerable (25,000 to 30,000 bales), the remarkable way in which
the cotton disappeared re-inspired confidence, and between the
1st and 5th inst. the market became strong and buoyant.
Moreover, faith in the future was strengthened by an important rise in the value of silver, and the pro.spect of a continued
improvement in this direction. The altered situation brought
out orders in Manchester, and led to an increased demand for
the raw material to cover contracts. The result was a large
bu.siness in both spots and futures, and an advance between the
1st and 5th inst. of %d. to 3-16d. on the spot, 7-32d. in near
futures and 5-32d. in new crops. Since the 5th inst. the
demand has fallen to more moderate dimensions, the market
has assumed a decidedly subdued tone, and prices have given
way l-16d. on the spot and l-16d. to 3-32d. for futures, with a
tendency at the close still in favor of buyers.

net excess in the surplus stock at the mills for the whole

The

In bales of 450
the estimated weekly consumption is
61,300 bales for Great Britain and about 50,000 for the Conlbs.,
tinent.
Last year, at the end of ,Iune, 57,000 bales were deducted
from the stock of American in Liverpool lor cotton forwarded
and not previously returned. This year, one firm who la.st year
returned 32,000 bales out of the above 57,000, have made
returns weekly, and in some eases the Arms who sent in the
remaining 25,000 bales have also given periodical returns; but
it is well known that a large quantity of cotton forwarded by
importers to spinners direct has not been reported to the Cotton
Brokers' .Association, and there are good reasons for believing
that the usnal annual stock-taking, which takes place at the
end of September, will disclose a considerable deficit, compared
with the published estimate. Last year the deficit (leaving out
the 32,000 bales before mentioned, and against which corresponding returns have already been made this year), was 95,(X)0
bales— 25,000 at the end of June and 70,000 at the close of September; in 1879 it was 62,000 bales, and in 1878, 73,000 bales.
The greater part of any deficit shown on stock-taking will
have to be added to consumption; and it is possible that the
weekly rate may be increased to 70,000 bales of 400 lbs., or over
62,000 bales of 450 lbs., which figure is really indicated by the
increased weight of goods and yarn exported.

PROSPECTS.
Under this head we cannot add anything new to our remarks
a month since.
The broad facts of the situation are
unchanged. The exceptionally large proportion of the American crop taken by the Continent and by American spinners has
rear Oreat
Brit'H.
of
down
the shipments to Great Britain to so comparatively
limited a compass, that the present visible supply for the United
Kingdom is only about the same as it was at this time last year,
while the rate of consumption, present and prospective, is much
larger, and the range of prices much lower. This explains the
strength displayedty the market daring the past fortnight, iti
the course of which prices have gained 3-16d. per lb. The
Advance which has taken place will bring more cotton to
Liverpool, and bring it quicker than would otnerwLse have been
the ca.se; but the prevalent opinion here is that a further rise
will be witne-ssed before the close of the season.
Afterwards
everything will depend on the prospects for the new crop, which,
80 far, are favorable for a large yield.

as the weeks in different years do not end on the same day of the
onth. We have consequently added to our other standing
tables a daily and monthly statement, that the reader may
constantly have before him the data for seeing the exact relative
movement for the years named. The movement each month
since September 1 has been as f oUows:

KliIDAT. P. M.. July 22, 1881.
There has been a hardening ti-ndeney for ttour in the past
weelt, and at time.M the demand was quite active. The improvement was most decided in low and medium grades from winter
wheat, which are comparatively searoe. The high grades did
not share in the improvement. The demand has been brisk
from the home trade, but sales for export have been quite free.
The market closes quiet.
The wheat market was steadily advancing during the week,
down to about noon yesterday. The bad weather reported in
the Northwest had stimulated speculation, which resulted in
something of a " corner" on contracts, both here and at Chicago.
Yesterday the sjiles of futures in this market approximated
three million bushels, and the highest prices of the day were
^1 29% for No. 2 red on the spot, $1 80)6 for July, $1 29% for
August, $1 30M for September and {I 31)4, for October but
the close was at l®2c. under these flgnres. No. 2 Milwaukee
spring brought $1 23 and No. 1 white $1 27@|1 27?^ on the
spot. To-day the market was dull and unsettled. No. 2 red
winter closing at about $1 23M for August, f 1 29^ for September and $1 31% for October.
Indian corn has also been tending upward, with considerable
3ictivity, not onlj- in the regular trade but on speculation. Yesterday the advance was checked, and prices slightly receded.
Crop accounts are generally very good for this staple. The
•creage is reported 2 per cent greater than last year. Theie
was no important change to-day.
Rye has been dull and drooping. Shipping orders have been
canceled. Barley remains entirely nominal. Samples of the
new crop have been shown on 'Change. Reports to the trade
here speak very confidently of the excellent crop prospects.
Oats were buoyant early in the week, under speculative
manipulation, prices advancing on the 8potl)^@2c. per bushel
but the improvement in futures was not so great. Crop prospects are said to be generally very fair. To-day the market
"was firm. No. 2 graded 44/6c. for mixed and 45c. for white, and
jNo. 2 graded 39c. for August and iiT^c. for September.

notions,
by
scarcity of many kinds of goods, and the firmness of prices, with Tuesday last (correspomding with the week for exports),
there has been no tendency toward speculation, and purchases also the receipts from Jan. 1, 1881, to that day, and for the
large sales of which were made to out-of-town jobbers), and
there was a steady though moderate demand for staple cotton
and woolen goods, shirts and drawers, felt skirts, hosiery,
thus far have been of a strictly legitimate character, which
augurs well for a good healthy autumn trade.
Domestic Cotton Goods. The exports of cotton goods during
the week ending July 19 were 2,229 packages, of which 642 were
shipped to Great Britain, 594 to China, 413 to Argentine Republic, 274 to Brazil, 135 to United States of Colombia and the
remainder, ia smaller lots, to other markets. There was a liberal
movemwit in plain and colored cottons, in execution of former
orders, and agents expfirienced a steady demind for fine brown
cottons, drills, medium bleached goods, wide sheetings, cotton
flannels, colored cottons, grain bags, &c., which were distributed
in moderate parcels to a fair aggregate amount.
Prices ruled
linn on all the most desirable fabrics, and stocks are remarkably well in hand. Print cloths were quiet and a trifle easier
at 3 15-16C., less 1 per cent.for 64x64s and 3%@3^c. for 5Sx60.s.
Dark prints were largely dealt in, but the demand was somewhat irregular, and there was more call for ginghams and
cotton dress goods, resulting in a moderate business.
Domestic Woolen Goods. The demand for clothing woolens
at flrst hands has been rather quiet, and mostly restricted to
such duplicate lots of cassimeres, worsted coatings and overcoatings as are required by clothiers for keeping up assortments. There was a continued good movement in the above
fabrics on account of back orders, and the best makes are in
such light supply that prices are steadily maintained. Beavers
and cloakings were in fair request by cloak manufacturers and
the trade, and there was a steady business in repellents. Kentucky jeans ruled quiet with agents, but a fair distribution was
made by jobbers at steady prices. For flannels and blankets
the current demand was only moderate, but agents continued to
make large deliveries on account of back orders, and prices
remain firm. Worsted dress goods continued quiet -as new fall
styles have only been opened in exceptional cases and shawls
were pull for the same reason; but there was a more active business in felt skirts, and linseys were in somewhat better request.
Shirts and drawers were moderately active, and there was a fair
movement in hosiery and fancy knit woolens. Carpets were
more sought for, and prices are steadily maintained by agents.
FoREioN Dry Goods have attracted rather more attention, but
transactions were comparatively light. Silks and dres< goods
were ^mostly quiet, and there was only a limited business in
linens and white goods; but cotton velvets were more active, and
there was a slightly improved demand for Hamburg embroideries by early buyers.
