mistakes, to bring our National banking system to the highest

the middle of September.
The water will be pumped out
and the workmen will then begin to excavate, striking out to
meet those at the other extremity.
It is considered to be
certain that the engineers have made their calculations so ac¬
curately, that the party of workmen excavating from the
way of the crib will, in about a year, meet those at work on
the present tube, and the walls of the tunnel fit^ exactly to¬
gether.
It is intended, when the tunnel shall have beeli completed,
to let in the water through the sluices in the walls of the
crib.. At this point the water is very pure and clear.
It
has never been found to contain more than eight grains of
solid matter to the gallon; and the distance from shore, two
miles, is so far that storms will not affect its quality. The
northwestern current in the lake will carry awjay the filth
emptied into the lake round the head and to the Michigan
shore.
The tunnel ascends or slopes, as it goes put from the
shore, about two feet per mile. Many apprehend that the
pressure of the water on its first entrance will iweep away
the brick work and collapse the walls; but as thje bricks are
set into the clay, which is almost as firm as solijd rock, and
the internal pressure of water will be equivalent |o that from
the outside, this is hardly to be feared.
If nothing occurs to
interrupt the completion of the tunnel, or to destroy it when
finished, Chicago will have secured an inexhaustible supply
of as pure and wholesome water as is to be fpund on the
western continent.

ply and demand. To this charge there can be no objection,
and it is always cheerfully paid.
But in addition to this
price, when men obtain, monopolies, or when they succeed in
taking advantage of the ignorance of their customers, they
charge an increased price. It is therefore the interest of
evrey one engaged in commerce to obtain a monopoly of sell¬
ing what he has to dispose of, and to avoid being subjected
to a like monopoly in the hands of those who sell him what
he wishes to buy.
And as those who are seeking to obtain
a monopoly often succeed in directing the policy of the Gov¬
ernment, either through the established legislature, or by
more direct means, such measures—as.high protective tariffs,
exclusive rights of trade in particular localities, and the like—

might offer his goods for sale there, vrould be instantly ar¬

finds himself the victim of similar monopolies in the posses¬

he doesn’t get the cotton with which he clothes himself, cheap

iron he requires, cheap enough, because his friends in Pitts¬
burg have obtained for themselves the monopoly of the iron

which he needs for his comfort and convenience, cheap enough,
because his Eastern friends have managed to completely mo¬
nopolise that branch of industry ; nor does he even buy his

in Philadelphia perhaps than in any other large city of the
United States), the hucksters have contrived to have their
little trade “protected,” too.’
•It is as though every man went about armed with a momonopoly, as the early Californians went about armed with
revolvers. The instant one man levels his weapon, a dozen

The result is,
that the advantages which he derives from his monopoly in
selling, are all paid' away to the advantage of those from
which he is obliged to buy, and in the end he gains nothing by
it.v Neither do his neighbors who victimized him gain by it
in the end. They too, in turn, are the yictims of others, and

The cotton trade has been somewhat excited during the week.
The rallying tendency manifested towards the close of last week
was continued on Monday, when the market closed with a
better
demand at a slight advance. On Tuesday, the American news of
the advance in price in New York, and the confirmation of the

opening of the Southern ports and the abolishment of the 25 per
cent duty on cotton west of the Mississippi, induced a feeliug of un¬
certainty regarding the probable supply from the Southern States,
aud, as before, suspeuse caused weakness and a tendency to decline.
Accounts of dullness aud stagnation in Manchester, combined with
a large accession of imports, produced further
depression, and in

the middle of the week the business was on the most limited scale,
at a decline in prices

to causes of long standing, and that of the former firm to losses by their

orders for the home markets, with the exception of the North of
England, where the demand is both steady and encouraging. The
export trade is on the whole satisfactory. At the usual quarter
day, yesterday, there were complaints made of flatness in some of
staple branches of industry in the adjacent district,—notably in the
anchor and chain-cable trades ; but there is no apparent want of
employment for skilled artisans. In the metal market business is
dull and prices lower. Block tin has been reduced to 94s 6d, and
refined to 97s 6d per cwt.
At Sheffield the home trade suffers in consequence of the election
excitement. The French market continues to be generally active,
but orders have been smaller in several branches for some w6eks

past, and agents write that renewed briskness need not be ex¬
pected until the middle or end of August. Some fair cutlery or¬
ders for Australia have been given out during the last ten days, but
they are to some extent exceptional. On the whole the cutlery and
tool branches are busy, but the steel and heavy branches, with a
few exceptions, are languid.
In the colonial and foreign produce markets generally, business
has been upon a moderate scale, with very little variation in

which passed through the French

territory. To these 23,000,000 has to be added that which was sent
through England. During this interval of three years the exports from
France to the United States fell from 250,000,000 to 94,000,000; and
North American produce imported into France, for French consumption,
suffered to the same extent. Instead of 240,000,000 in 1860, which, ow¬
ing to the rise in the price of cotton, reached 363,000,000 in 1861* it fell
in 1863 to 81,000,000. This reduction applies especially to raw cotton,
in the cultivation of which the Southern States excelled. France drew
from America, for her own use, in 1860, 115,000,000 of kilogrammes,
valued at 188,000,0001, and in 1861 109,000,000 kilogrammes, worth
241,000,000f. In 1863, however, she only imported the comparatively
insignificant quantity of 254,000 kilogrammes, valued at 1,500,000, and
exported in the same year to the United States 86,000 kilogrammes of
cotton, value 414,OOOf. In respect to what is called the special com¬
merce—that is to say, what is required for the consumption of the im¬
porting, and which is the produce of the exporting, country—the trade
between the two countries, imports and exports included, fell from 449,000,000 in 1860 to 175,000,000 in 1863. In respect to the general
trade, which comprises all sorts of merchandise, of whatever origin, ex¬
ported, and all imported, whatever its destination, it.fell from 627,000,000 in 1860 to 200,000,000 in 1863, or less than one-third. The trade
between England and the United States was on a much larger scale
than the trade between the United States and France/ The general
commerce—understood as has just been stated—imports and exports
included, gave in 1860 a total of 1,691,000,000, and even in 1863 it was
still 932,000,000. Certainly the difference is considerable, but much
less than for France, which did not keep one-third, whereas England re¬
tained three fifths.”

The article concludes by anticipating a speedy restoration of the
American trade, and points out that the North, notwithstanding
the losses of the war, is still an immense consuming country.
From the published statistics of the foreign trade of Belgium for
the first five months of 1865, it appears that the imports in May
were 38 per cent more than in the corresponding month of 1864,
and those of the whole period 27 per cent more than in the same
time of last year. The exports in May last were 3 per cent less
than in May, 1864, and 4 per cent less in the first five months of the

feature, demand being quiet and prices steady.

The return is

chiefly remarkable for presenting the impor¬
32,939,000f. in the deposits. In the coin and
bullion there is a diminution of 22,669,000f., and in the circu¬
lation of notes an increase of 25,220,000f., both of which, in
a considerable degree, are owing
to those large withdrawals.

The payments

for the half-yearly dividends has had the usual effect
of materially
reducing the public deposits. On the other hand, the
amount of private securities has
decreased, and that of the private de¬
posits has increased. The most important feature is the further de¬
cline of £710,773 in the reserve. The amount of the stock of coin and
bullion had been reduced
by withdrawals to the extent of £538,793.”

week, has been very irregular and unsettled in
Speculative features, or the result olf speculative op¬
erations, heretofore, have been apparent, in all theJ leading staples
Yesterday and to-day, the advance in gold led to renewed buoyancy
in quarters where the subsidence of speculation had resulted in a
slight decline in prices. *
>
The stocks of most descriptions of merchandize in this mar¬
ket are now large, and the quantities on the way aie, in some par¬
ticulars, excessive. This is more especially true of; cotton, sugar,
coarse grains, pork and naval stores ; and a good deal of uncertainty
is felt as to the future of prices.
Cotton, at the close, is supported by a brisk export jdemand. Sugar
is barely steady.
Course grains, such as corn, oats, Arc., meet with
a large demand for
