They have, therefore, withdrawn their previous offer, and offered
instead 6 per cent in the pound, one half now, and the other

This was accepted.
The weather has, of late, been very favorable for the growing
crops of cereal produce, and, from nearly every country, more
encouraging reports have been received with regard to the probable result of the approaching harvest. Wheat is tow coming
freely into ear, and notwithstanding the unpropitious weather
which visited as in the spring, and which has only just departed
from ns, the crop upon all light and well-drained and wellfarmed land looks well, and gives every prospect of a fair average
yield.
In many districts, however, owing to the bad weather
and consequently to the late eowincs, the crops are backward

have a speedy influence in hastening them forward, so that the

Tlie brilliancy of the weather and the more favorable accounts

a wet spring have railiated greatly against wheat
sowing and as the unremunera'.ivo prices current in tbe 'British
markets have afforded farmers no inducement to produce wheat, tbe
attention of the agricultural commuoiiy has been devoted, where
prac'icable, to the cultivation of crops which promise to yield a
more satisfactory and profi-.able result. A 4 far as the country at
large i» concerned, we believe this to b a beneficial coarse to
pursue. Experience, and especially the experience of the presaat
leason, teaches us that iu times ol peace we can always depend
uponasupply of foreign wheat, adequate to our requirements, at a
reasoLable price. Foreign competition may, in some seasons,
cause a slight rise in prices but even this fails to force up tbe
value of tbe 41b. loaf to a point which would cause dlstrera even
among those earning the minimum of wages. Abundant crops
of feeding stuffs, wliich wiil afford farmi rs and grangers every
opportunity for producing larger supplies *oi meat, are obviously
more necessary to the country, as great d.tllculty is still experienced

From

the principal wheat growing countries, the accounts re•^rding the growing crops of wheat are satisfactory. There

seems to be no prospect, indeed, of an abundant yield of produce,
but a fair average result is anticipated, and there is an expectation that the quality will be good. In Southern Europe, harvest
work has already commenced, but in more northern latitudes the
crops are in several localities backward. The fineness of the
weather of late has, however, as stated above, had an excellent
effect, and should it continue, the commencement of harvest work

characteristic of the dealings in foreign exchange. The demand

Coupons for funding are still slowly coming in from persons
who have berotolore either neglected or refused to fund, and the
funding may virtually be considered accomplished, the amount
outstanding being very small, as seen by above statement.
'•Our relations with the Government remain unchanged. Not-withstanding the Supreme Court ot the United Spates has decided
that the Government can riglitfully retain but one-half the
amount of service performed by the Pacific roads, yet the Departments reluse settlement. Their failure and refusal to do so hag
been a source of much disappointment and embarrassment to
your Board of Directors. The amount of service performed and
unsettled up to December 31st. 1875, was $783,033; ouehalf of
wliich, or $391, 5&0, should be paid to your company in cash.

of tbe parties, take New York rates and divisions, and the same
distance is allowed us in the division of rates from and to all our

CTHE'CHRONICLR

42

Our Cotton Exchaoge was closed from Friday last to Wednes
day, and, oonBequently, for the first half of the week there wa''
no market. The openiDg on Wednesday morning wns under a
feeling of great depression, in sympathy with the course which
Liverpool had taken, and quotations were reduced -Jc., to be
followed by the same decline yesterday, witliout leading to
badness of any moment. In fact a semi-panic jrevailed. Today, there was at the dec'ine a steadier feeling, witli a good
demaad for home consumption. For future delivery there was a
decline of |c. in tlie course of Wednesday and Thursday. In
addition to the depression caused by the weakness and inactivity
of the Liverpool market, crop accounts, as received, were of the
moat favorable character and confidence in the maintenance of
prices, was, therefore, severely shaken.
Today, the market
opened at a further decline of l-16@3-32c., but under the
influence of reports of excessive rain in the Southwest, this was
soon recovered, aud the close was at a sliglit advance. The
position of the market is at present so directly dependent upon
the progress of our crop that it very speedily responds to every
;

unfavorable rumor.

Mer-sre. C-^oidou & Gomila mention that ihe sample from this bale, which

accnrale. Ftom this it appears that the cotton was all picked this yea", but
that half of it was from last year's plants, not frosted and preserved, and the
other half stiictly this year's crop. By "last year's plants, not frosted and
preserved," is understood plants grown from last year's stubble, not very
