The English statesmen of the hour have not shown grit enough in the emergency. If they had seized the opportunity they might have finally settled the difficulty. Ultimately, however, the feeling which has now been evoked must lead to some radical change in the government of Egypt. Just now wisdom and strength are greatly needed. They are all the more needed that the native party, including the army, have discovered how strong they are. Such qualities are conspicuously wanting bringing the safest, ; ; in the present ruler.

It establishes the fact that a sovereign becomes light after being in circulation for eighteen years, and the report concludes with the statement that before the end of the year the Mint will probably be in a position to undertake a long and continuous gold coinage. It also suggests that the Treasury may now proceed to consider what steps should be taken to deal with the evil of light coinage. About £50,000,000 will require to be recoined, and on the withdrawal of that sum there would be a loss of about £650,000. The silver market has been steady, the price of fine bars being 52J^d. per ounce. On the Stock Exchange during the week business has been ery quiet and restricted. The tone has, on the whole, been stsady, but there hav^ been no features of importance. Favorable weather for the growing crops has had the natural efifect of producing much quietness in the wheat trade. The supplies of home-grown produce offering in the country markets remain small, and the receipts from abroad have been only moderate. The quantity of produce afloat to this country is still considerable, and as there is the prospect of an early harvest in Europe millers natural'y prefer to keep their purchases within strictly necessary limits. The holders of wheat, however, are firm, and they show no inclination to accept lower prices, especially as far as the better qualities of wheat are During the week ended May 20 the sales of home-grown wheat in the 150 principal markets of England and Wales amounted to 41,266 quarters, against 28,402 quarters last year and 26,677 quarters in 1880j while it is estimated that they were in the whole kingdom 165,100 quarters, against 113,600 quarters and 106,700 quarters. Since harvest the sales in the 150 principal markets have amounted to 1,635,624 quarters, against 1,477,537 quarters and 1,152,251 quarters; the estimate for thejwhole kingdom being 6,542,500 quarters, against 5,554,150 quarters in the corresponding period of last sea.son and 4,634,400 quarters in 1879-80. Without reckoning the supplies of produce furnished ex-granary at the commencement of the season, it is e.stimated that the following quantities of wheat and flour have been placed on the British markets since harvest.

The arrivals of gold from New York have been considerable, and advices of farther supplies having been received, the money market has assnmed an easier appearance; bat the Bank rate remains at 3 per cent, while the open market qaotation for discount accommodation is 2M to 2% per cent. Evidently, therefore, the important receipts of gold have not depressed the money market, and this is to be accounted for by the Italian demand for gold and by the more general activity which has manifested itself of late in the financial world. It cannot be said, however, that the demand for money for commercial purposes has increased, notwithstanding that the volume of our commercial transactions has been augmented. Mercantile business is evidently conducted on the basis of short credits, and bankers are not much resorted to for assistance. But on the other hand, the large business which is now in progress in connection with public companies is exciting some influence over the money market, and is checking any return of the depression to which the money market has been subject during recent summers. Of late years, at thi.i period of the season, the value of money has fallen to a very low point, one year in particular the rate of discount in the open market being only 1, and even per cent per annum, with a bank rate of 2 per cent.

There is a sinking fund of 1 per cent for the first ten years, and afterwards of not less than 2 per cent per annum. The weather has been very brilliant, but the nights havg been cold, owing to the prevalence of easterly winds. Vegetation has, therefore, been somewhat checked but the prospect bills ; is as satisfactory as could be desired, certainly as far as cereals we concerned. The understood to have suffered much from the gale which visited us three weeks a^o, but the grass crop promises to yield good results, and in many other respects vegetation is making healthy progres-s. As soon, probably, as the east winds leave us, we may have some warm and genial rains. These would be productive of great benefit, as the rainfall this year has been exceedingly light. The trade for wheat during the week has been very quiet but, owing to the still diminishing visible supply in. the United Stat-es, prices do not decline to any important extent. Good vheat is in fact held at full prices, which are, in the majority of cases, obtained. Millers buy sparingly, and only to supply actual wants. This course they will no doubt continue to pursue as long as the weather remains fine, and there is the prospect of an early and average harvest. During the week ended May 13 the sales of home-grown wheat in the 150 principal markets of England and Wales amounted to 35,915 quarters, against 34,110 quarters last year and 26,793 quarters in 1880; while it is computed that they were in the whole kingdom 143,660 quarters, against 136,440 quarters and 107.180 quarters. Since harvest the sales in the 150 principal markets have been 1,594,358 quarters, against 1,449,135 quarters and 1,125,574 quarters; the estimate for the whole kingdom being 6,377,500 quarters, against 5,440,540 quarters in the corresponding period of last season and 4,527,700 quarters in 1879-80. Without reckoning the supplies of produce furnished ex-granary at the commencement of the season, it is estimated that the following quantities of wheat and flour have been placed on the British markets since harvest.

" The gentlemen give an enthusiastic account of the section of conntry through which the new line is being constructed. They find the line very favorable for constraction, with easy grades and very few water courses to cross." * « "The contractors have already begun work between New Orleans and Baton Rouge and Vicksbarg and Port Gibson." * * " It is expected to have the entire line completed and in operation between New Orleans and Memphis within eighteen months." New York & New England.— A meeting of the New York & New England Railroad Company is to bf held on Jane 15, instant, to see if the company will accept the act of the State Legislature to provide for the sale or exchange of the shares of the Commonwealth, and a resolution of the Legislature of Connecticut amending the charter of the company, and also to take such action as may be deemed expedient in relation to the iwue of bonds secured by a second mortgage on the property and franchises of the company for an amount not exceeding 96,000,000, and to the retirement or acquisition by the compuiy of the shares of its stock held by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and to the provisions of said act of the Con; necticut Legi.-ilat ure granting an extension of time for»completing the railroad of the company; and for taking land there- the consequent action of its tioard of directors in issaiog certificates known as dividend obligations to the holders of com- mon stock." Richmond & Alleghany.—The argument on the application for a receiver for the Richmond & Alleghany road will probably be made in September.

He also states that the Northern Pacific Company will now proceed to bridge the Mississippi at Anoka, and from that point extend the purcha-sed line into Minneapolis. These changes assure to the Northern Pacific a continuous line, owned by itself, from Minneapolis to Brainerd on its trunk line, and from Minneapolis trains will reach St. Paul over the Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul short line track. The Manitoba Company, having disposed of its line on the ea.stern bank of the Mississippi, will now complete its west side, or St. Cloud & Minneapolis branch, which will form its main for. been leased to the Old Colony Railroad Company for ninetynine years from April 1, 1882, under authority of an act of the Legislature. The terms are, thirty per cent of its gross earnings, with a guarantee from the Old Colony Company of five per cent interest on the first mortnge bonds of the Fall River Road of $200,000. The Fall River Road is doing a good basiness, which is steadily increasing. Daring the past year this company has made many improvements at Fall River, and has paid most of its floating indebtedness, and will prove to be an important acquisition to the Old Colony system, and of great advantage financially to its stock and bond holders. & Manitoba.-The declared a semi-annual dividend of 3^ per cent, payable on and after the Ist of August, on the original capital stock of the company, namely $15,000,000, to the stockholders of record on the 19th July. At a meeting of the directors held June 8, resolutions were nnaniraoosly adopted providing for the issue of new stock to the a.uount of ^5.000.000 to provide further funds forthe continiied development of the property of the company, including the construction and acqui.sition of certain extensions and branches of the main line, already made or in contemplation, and for other purposes. The capital stock of this company will thus be increased to $20,000,000. 'ITie stock will be i-sued on or after August 1, and the transfer books will be closed from the 19th day of July, at 3 P. M., until the 21st day of August, 1882, and until the 20th day of August, 1882, the privilege of subscribing for such additional stock at par will be offered only to the holders of the capital stock of the company as they appear of record upon the transfer books on the 20th dav of JalV, 1883. Each holder shall be entitled to thus subscribe for one share of additional stock for every three shares of the old stock held by him, and all stock thus taken shall be paid for in cash on or before the 20th day of September, 1882 ; but no rights in or to fractional shares shall be allowed.

The average buyer of stocks will now be inclined to make two inquiries first, What is likely to be the course of the General mai-ket in the next two montlis, as it may be directed y the attitude of the great operators and by the export of gold, the crop yield, the labor strikes, and the commercial prosperity of the country at large ? Secondly, What is the the large decline — prospect for each particular stock on tlie list, judged on its own merits and earning capacity, apart from the rest, and without regard to the market forces of any particular week or month ? In reply to the first inquiry, a rational answer would seem to be, that the condition of the country is good, the crop prospects are very fair for a much better yield than in 1881, the export of gold is not yet threatening to our money market, the labor strikes are more likely to be adjusted than to continue for many months, and the commercial prosperity of the country is generally sound. As to the position of the great speculators, whose operations have had so much to do with the course of our market in the past year or two, it may be pretty safely asserted that they will do in the future what they have done in the past, and that is, try at each turn to make a little more money for themselves, either by bulling or bearing stocks, as may best suit their own purposes. In answer to the second question above, as to the value of each particular stock, it is obvious that no reply can be made in the limited space of this report; and indeed it is only possible to obtain such an answer by a constant study of the stocks from week to Week,— their reports, earnings, current financial operations, management, &c. have urged before, that in a ragged and unsettled market, such as we now have, the only rational way to look at stocks was to take each one on its own merits and not to trust again to any grand advance along the whole line that would carry everytlung before it. What connection is there, for instance, between Reading and Texas Pacific, between Lake Shore and Richmond & Danville, between Jersey Central and Illinois Central, between Central We Pacific and Delaware Lackawanna & Western, and so on to list ? It is quite true that a large yield of crops in all parts of the country would benefit all the railroads, but even with this imiversal abundance there are many other points to be considered in the case of each railroad. As to the actual condition of the crops this week, a private letter from one of the most prominent flour and grain houses of the country says that wheat promises a decidedly larger yield than in 1881 though probably not up to 1880, which was an exceptional year other small grains are said to be " in larger breadth and in better condition than ever before." As to com, the delay in planting, on account of the cold, wet weather, is fully admitted, but they say there is yet time to make a good " crop. the end of the , ; The money market has been very easy for call loans at 2 to 2)4 per cent on government collateral, and 2i^ to 4 per cent on stocks. Time loans on collateral are nominal. Strictly hrst-class commercial paper of two to four months is quoted at t i%@^% i}4Ma% per cent.

State and Railroad Bonds.— Transactions in State bonds have been very limited. The Tenessees closed to-day at 56 and old Tennessees at 56J^. The State officers are promptly on hand, and have opened an office at 7 Nassau Street for the purpose of receiving and examining bonds previous to funding them under the act of May 19, 1882. Railroad bonds have not shown a large business for investment, but prices of the fii-st-class bonds vary hardly at all with the fluctuations of the stock market. Erie seconds have been active, and sold down to 87%, but afterwards recovered, and to-day sold freely at 88}4@89.

One failure of a stock-commission house occurred, through the inability of customers to make good their margins, and this was made the most of by the bears, and to-day the street was filled with rumors of different failures, apparently without any foundaThe weakest stocks have been attacked, as usual, and tion. the decline effected in these lias been made use of to depress the whole market. Two of the most active stocks in the downward movement were Denver & Rio Grande and Louisville & Nashville, and from various indications it is surmised that in each case there are strong parties trying to get control of the property. It has been reported at the West that C. B. & Q. would obtain the Denver & Rio Grande, but this does not appear to us at all certain. It is tolerably clear that where such efforts are made to depress prices as we have, ha* the past fortnight, there are some parties very anxious to buy; but whether this may be for the long account, to obtain control of certain roads, or merely to cover short sales, the future must determine. After a very weak and unsettled market during most of the day, there was a decided rally to- wards the close, and prices became much steadier. Western Union Telegraph has been well supported, although the Mutual Union is reported to be progressing rapidly. Among the other Gould stocks, Wabash wiis the weakest. There is more steadiness in the Vanderbilts, and they do not yield as easily as they did a few weeks ago. The Northwestern stock is very firm on account of the company's large earnings. St. Paul, with the ten per cent stock dividend to be made, and the right to take ten per cent more stock, at par, has fluctuated within a moderate limit. There have been reports of a negotiation between Messrs. Gould and Garrett involving The New York City Clearmg-House banks in tlieir statement the Baltimore & Ohio's access to New York over the Jersey June 3 sliowed a decrease of $257,525 in their surplus Central, and the settlement of the B. & O. telegraph compereswves, the total surplus being $8,951,100, against $4,208,625 tition, and although some such agreement seems highly probo on May 27.

For the purpose of supplying rolling stock which was absolotelr necessary, the Wisconsin Central stockholders were in December, 1879, invited to join iff organizing a car oompanj which should from time to time bay what new rolling stock and motive power the trustees needed, when and as reqaired, and thus enable them to retain and increase the business which was within their natural territory. The trustees offered to hire from the proposed new car company such equipment as they shoald designate from time to time, agreeing to employ all cars so furnished as soon a.s they were deliverea on the road, and to retain them on rental until such time as the trustees, or their successors in operating the road, should elect to buy them. At first $200,003 of new rolling stock was thas supplied but the neceshities of the road tiave reqaired successive additions, and Uie leased eqaipment now amounts to $659,000. HILWAUKBB AHD NORTHERN LBA8B. " The trustees having exhausted negotiation in trying to effeot satisfactory arrangements for the permanent use of the Milwaukee & Northern Railroad, on terms which would be fair to the Wisconsin Central Railroad, and give it permanent control » » •< decided to of its outlet to Milwaukee and Chicago," abandon altogether the use of the Milwaukee & Northern Railroad, and to surrender its psssession on the 31st of July, 1883, to its owners; and to encourage the immediate construction o£ a new line to Milwaukee from our terminus for our own ose. " It was evidently so expedient for the Wisconsin Central Railroad to control its own avenue to Milwaukee, that a new organization was quickly formed among its stockholders to build the Milwaukee & Lake Winnebago Railroad; and the trustees and the Wisconsin Central Railroad Company decided : to join in leasing it for ninety-nine years. This railway is being rapidly built along the west shore of Lake Winnebago, throuprh the considerable cities of Oshkosh and Fond du Lao to Schleisingerville, a town on the Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway distant about thirty miles from Milwaukee. Before the new lease is to take effect, the Milwaukee & Lake Winnebago Railroad will be completely furnished with suitable equipment, and laid with the best qua'ityof 8te«l rails, 56 pounds to the yard, on a road-bed constructed in first-class manner and in every way equal to the best portions of the Wisconsin Central main line. The parmanent control of this new road is secured to the Wisconsin Central Railroad as fully as if it was legally and technically a part of the Wisconsin Cen* » * tral itself." "The funds are all provided for building, completing and equipping this new road. The contracts are let, and the work The is vigorously pushed; and its early completion is assured. use of the St. Paul track from Schleisingerville into Milwaukee, and of all the terminal facilities in Milwaukee of that great company, have been permanently arranged by contract with the Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway Company for the use of the Wisconsin Central business; and it is probable that, before the end of 1882, the Wisconsin Central Railroad will be enjoying the full advantages of the new route." * * * "I'he heavy outla.vs which we have been obliged to make in renewals and improvements have been made with your sanction and authority. They have rendered, of course, the payment of any interest on the second series bonds, for the present, impossible, but these present eipenditures will result in earning for the second series bonds tneir full maximum interest at a much earlier day than any other policy could hope to aooomplish. The first series bonas. under the reorganization, beria to draw interest at five per cent on the 1st of July, 1883. Tne policy which you have adopted, and steadfastlr pursued, seema to assure this payment on the first series bonds as soon as it falls dae;'and to justify the hope that, after that date, at a reasonably early day, something may be apportioaed, under the terms of the trust deed, ana paid for interest upon th» second series bonds."

" Every jear or two a fresh agreement of this kind has to be made, and in their efforts to silence competition, the old companies are reducing more and more seriously their proportion nf joint earnings. After the Anglo-American Company had absorl>ed the original Atlantic Tele- graph Company, the first French Atlantic Telegraph Company was started, and tliis was taken over by amalgamation, in which the French Company certainly did nut obtain the worst of the bargain. Then the Direct United States Cable was started, wiih the express pnrpose of introducing competition but after a time the Anglo-American, with the aid of the Globe Trust, succeeded in turning out the Direct Company's board and dividing profits. Then another French cable was agam laid, and the same tactics of lowering the tariff were pursued, until the second French company agreed to a joint-oiir.se arrangement. Last year, Mr. Jay (iould started an American Cable Company, and after a long spell of the Is. a word tariff, his lines are now bronght within the arrangement.

The total land grant from the Dominion Government to the railroad company includes 25,000,000 acres. The facts regarding the sale of a portion of this land by the company are reported as follows by the iY. T. Tribune: — " Some time ago E. B. Osier and W. B. Scarth, of Toronto, and J. Kennedy Tod and 0. H, Northcote, of the firm of J. S. Kennedy & Co., of thi.s city, obtained a concession from the Canadian Pacific of 5,000,000 acres, together with a half interest in each town site west of Brandon, on the main line of the road to the eastern boundary of British Columbia a distance of about 800 miles. From the Canadian Pacific Land Grant Bond Syndicate the same persons have also secured the right to purchase sufficient bonds of the company to pay for the lands — The amount is now estimated to be $13,500,000. The bonds are receivable by the railroad company in payment for lands at 10 per cent premium. The bond syndicate is represented in New York by J. S. Kennedy iv Co. and in Canada by the Bank of Montreal.

The weather has been warm and summer-like the past week, iwith frequent rains, giving a great impulse to the growing brops and 'relieving much of the apprehension that was felt in Uay, owing to the prolonged low temperature. Strikes of ironworkers at Pittsburg and other points at the West are still in brogress, unsettling values and causing some uneasiness in correlative branches of trade. The high prices of agricultural products has reduced our eiports, and caused great dnlness in that branch of trade j and business generally, except in the necessaries of life, is kept within narrow limits.

It is said that efforts have since been made to effect an nnderstanding in order to anite the two corporations, bat tliat thus far they have been nnsaccessfal. We notice, however, that the opening of the Liverpool Cotton Exchange has been pat off to the end of June, time being Uins given for further deliberation. As a union appears to be in the interest of both parties, not only as regards regulation of all trading, but also with repect to expensef, it would seem almost certain that this end will ultimately be reached, even though deferred for the present.

Prices are about steady and holders continue to quote 7Mc. for 1?6 lb.. 8^c. for IM lb., 9^c. for 2 lb., aud lO^c. for standard grades, but we hear that good buyers can obtain goods at a shade under these figures.

S. of Colombia, 96 to Hayti, 74 to Hamburg, &c. The demand by jobbers continued moderate and almost wholly of a hand-tomouth character, and the piece distribution, though fair for the time of year, was by no means active. Agents' prices are without quotable change, and all the best makes of plain and colored cottons are steadily held, in view of the large demand Print cloths were in moderate demand and steady at in sight. 3 13-160. for 64x64s and 3%c. for 56x60s, at which figures manufacturers are reluctant sellers. Prints remain quiet, and ginghams though sluggish in first hands were decidedly more active with jobbers, the lately reduced prices having stimu- — — lated their sale. — Domestic Woolen Goods. There was a somewhat better for men's-wear woolens, but selections were individually light and only moderate in the aggregate. There was a steady movement in fall cassimeres, suit ings, cheviots, &e., on account of back orders, and but few attempts to cancel orders were reported by manufacturers' agents. Overcoatings were in moderate request, as were worsted coatings and cloakings; but the most demand desirable fabrics of this class are so well sold up that prices are Kentucky jeans were in moderate demand, but prices continue low and unsatisfactory to producers, and the movement in satinets was light and irregular. Flannels have received rather more attention from intending buyers, and there was a fair business in colored blankets; carpets were less active, but steady in price, and there was an irregular but mostly sluggish demand for fall hosiery and knit steadily maintained, as a rule. underwear. FoKiioN Dry Goods have subsided into the quiet condition usually witnessed at this stage of the season, and while business was light.with importers, the jobbing trade was only moderate, save in a few specialties, which were in fair demand. The auction season is about drawing to a close, and it has been one of the least satisfactory known for years past, importers having been able to dispose of most of their goods without having recourse to public sale.s. liupurcatlons or Dry Ruods.

Friday. P. M„ June 9, 1882. Business has been strictly moderate with the package houses during the past week, in spite of the arrival of a good many buyers for interior markets, and it has become evident that operations in fall goods will be deferred until the actual condition of the crops upon which so much depends— can be definitely ascertained. There is, however, a much better feeling in the trade, and a renewal of activity in the not far distant future is confidently expected in the best-informed quarters. The season has so far advanced that seasonable goods were mostly quiet in first hands; but the warm weather has developed a slight improvement in the jobbing branches of the trade, and retailers have been so actively employed in the distribution of summer fabrics that they will soon be compelled to re-enter the market for fresh supplies. Values of the most staple fabiaes of domestic and foreign manufacture are steadily maintained, and stocks are in very good shape as a rule, though certain — last so. gi £• 10» X c: w »f»tO too O03 o--3moioa QUO wtotowto CD 'us cooto'-oo -40c;'H--i j-tOMplOl ccb CD-I Oi'O cccn GOh- "to H* to to CO QO CC CD CC<1 toco oco 0(|U toco QD^OOOCO pcopoww XOCixVo ooVoht-boi U* to UO 0< 03 O'lt- wo co:j' rf^ toco O'-OpZOOD tcoaccit*- Ci f- CXI r- W-t O -J MOiOlCOCD l0Vic:O-i COOSO^'^X CDp W -J -1 cob O* CO to "^i cc c: o *'biio'o»'— c. - ^1 o to C to O' *- to •j« yr •-* o CO MM c O (t^ Mt0 4*iXrf>. oto QDO U"*- u<05U''efi WCOOWOi w fc^ 0« CO Ot 00»-Xi-J OOO-jW** h-»t*tOM CO rt- to tt- CD tiipwpio^ CO to btou^b'^ 3:) cr. c/> o :d 00 ^ OD cowoV*-* -J 10 to- *- to to to CO M-<<-'tO Ci W Ol to C C to "l M oto QDCS oio^aoo (J O'ioVo'tOH* "tOICW'^'W M tg ^ ^ 0<C OCDiJi 0< W ^ - 1 CO #- H* ^ O -J Gcoxrf^cn o bcirf^Vb - J GC rf- O^ *» rf^ C "-U J:i OiWKCOtO QCp_W;-lM GOO-TOio f- to c: O^ MMWtO^:* H'CDO<C-lO WGO ccjoa-Cip if oT-cobi ^- t X' I-"-' CJSCOrf^X to c i" :o ;0 *- M-JtOMtO w'bcibco 10 rf- to to M totOf-pW e; *. j; cr ci ococcxa* -> - to Ti ' to Ot 01 — * a« WJ W I>(- en O -J ^ CJ' w O"-* o to ptg X; JUNB IHE CHRONlCLIi 10, IS Financial.
