ually kept in check, we might long ago have had enacted
among us scenes in comparison with which the memorable
events of 1857 would have seemed almost insignificant.
A
financial panic now would be much more serious in its con¬
sequences, more wide in its sweep, and more resistless in its
course than any similar previous convulsion recorded in our
history ; for at present our financial edifice is composed of
and surrounded by combustible materials, so that-a con¬
flagration, should it break out, would be less under control.
It is, therefore, of no small importance that we7 should * be
advised to be on our guard, to adopt every known precaution,
to use every preventive in our power.
: v
The recent panic in London adds another to th e list of our
warnings. In England the credit system has long had a
tendency to expand beyond all safe limits, and the over¬
strained machinery has at last broken down. Had the other
banking and finance companies been generally in a sound
condition, the failure of a great house like that of Overend,
Gurney & Co:, could scarcely have failed to cause much com¬
motion.
But,’asMhas happened hereon the suspension of a
leading banking firm, the commotion usually subsidies with¬
out the wave of trouble being able to reach more than a very
limited circle.
The sufferers mostly obtain speedy and easy
accommodation elsewhere; for, partly from sympathy, and
more from policy, other banking houses are- led‘to do all
they can to prevent the panic from spreading or becoming
general. Hence in a short time the great wheels of the finan¬
cial machine revolve as before. Now, every one who has
intelligently watched the monetary movements of the last
five years can point out half-a-dozen occasions or more when

from panics and revulsions of a most disastrous character.
The great lesson which the late English monetary crisis
teaches us is the danger of over speculation.
Bankers and
finance companies, by offering high rates of interest, attracted
heavy deposits. The money thus obtained they engaged to
pay back to the owners on demand. Regardless of the
danger that it might suddenly be demanded, they lent it out
at very high rates for one year, two years, or even a longer
time.
Now, there are not a few of our own bankers, who,

but for the vast unknown mass of floating obligations incur,
of

lied

by a multitude of independent and uncontrolled institu¬
tions, who are making the greater gain by working without
adequate reserves of their own providing. In the conflicting
mass of testimony on the subject, it is not easy to find out to
how great *an extent this vicious and dangerous practice has
obtained; but it well deserves, and we trust will soon receive,
a thorough exposure by a Parliamentary commission.
If there be one feature of our banking system which has
red

chiefly and most of all tended to give solidity to the whole
fabric, we think that feature is the positive obligation by
which each institution has to keep a reserve of legal tenders
equal to one-fourth of all its liabilities for notes and for
deposits. This provision is the great safeguard of the sys¬
tem, and has tended to neutralize and arrest many of its
evils. We cannot too jealously guard the legal tender re¬
serves of our banking institutions. And it is a gratifying fact,
pointed out by Mr. Freeman Clarke in his last report, that

of our National Banks are consider¬
ably in excess of the requirements of the law.
It is one of the many valuable functions discharged in our
financial system by the compound legal tender notes that
they act as a reserve and give strength to the banks, while
as they earn interest, an inducement is offered to the banks
to carry more compounds than they are actually compelled to
hold by the law.
This, doubtless, is one chief cause of the
^interesting fact relative to the excess of the legal tender re¬

It is to be regretted that a bill making this necessary
introduced till so late a period
in the session.
The time has now come when efficient re¬
demption of the bank note circulation can no longer be dis¬
pensed with. In the interests of economy it is urged by
many persons that all the National Bank notes should be
called in, because the profit of the issue accrues to private
persons ; while the greenbacks should remain out, because
the profit is all gained by the Government. We are not
prepared to concur in this view. One of the reasons for pre¬
ferring bank currency to irredeemable government notes, has
been usually said to be that irredeemable notes can be kept
afloat to an amount beyond. the wants of business. These
wants are not fixed, but vary with the season of the year, and
with numerous other circumstances.
In proportion as there
is an excess of paper money afloat, depreciation takes place,
and inflation of prices naturally results.
Bank notes, on the
other hand, if redeemable, can scarcely be long kept out in
excess of the monetary wants of the country.
Hence, they

for they flow back in a constant stream
to the issuer for payment, and the current of the circulation
is thus kept at its proper height.
Since, without redemption
in New York, it is impossible to keep bank notes at par,
efforts have been making ever since the National Banking
law was passed to have it made more perfect.
That enact¬
ment, it will be remembered, does not appoint the monetary
centre of the country as the place of redemption, but allows
the banks to select any one of a dozen other places in pre¬
ference to and instead of New York.
Experience has abund¬
antly shown the truth of the position we have always taken
on this question, that our bank notes cannot be permanently
kept as a sound uniform currency, except they be compul¬
sorily redeemable in New York, or what is the same thing,
in one of the three great cities.
As might be expected the obligation of redemption entails
a loss of profit
and is objected to by some of the interior
banks.
These institutions, however, must learn to rise
above the sordid views of private advantage.
It is for their
interest that the National banking system should be perma¬
nent ; and without redemption of the bank note this will be
impossible. Had an unredeemed paper, currency been tol¬
erable to the people of the United States the National Bank
currency would never have been allowed to be issued at all."'
When these institutions were authorized by Congress, green¬
backs were already out and would have answered the pur¬
pose of a currency well if their quantity could have been kept
adequate. The profits of issuing such an irredeemable cur-'
rency are immense.
But those profits, for reasons that ap¬
peared sufficient, Congress refused to the National Treasury.
Irredeemable notes being out to the extent of 400 millions
and further issues being inadmissible, we created the new
banks for the special purpose of issuing 300 millions of notes
that should be redeemed, and so redeemed as to be kept

which have been developed during the last

September, the stock at that port will not stand below
extraordinary figure of 1,000,000 bales.
Should this prove to be the case, the trade will have an
important offset against any disappointment in the crop that
may occur here.
Present indications are not at all flattering
to the hopes of a three-fourths crop lately cherished.
The
fears of a lack of vitality in the old seed which planters were
compelled to use have been realized, the plant having with¬
ered to such an extent that large tracts of land have to be re¬
planted. The tax of five cents upon cotton and the panicky
condition of affairs at Liverpool have induced some of the
growers to plant corn instead of cotton upon lands where the
seed has thus failed. In some districts the neglected condi¬
tion of the lands has caused such a growth of weeds as has
seriously" injured the progress of the cotton plant. Storms
and frosts, too, have done fully their average amount of dam¬
age to the crop. The crevasse on the Mississippi has caused
the flooding of a very important cotton country; and there
seems to be little hope that the waters will subside early
enough to admit of the crop there being replanted with any
prospect of its ripening in due time.
These facts are certainly discouraging, and do not favor

NEW YORE.
The imports of foreign dry goods at this, port for May show, as we
stated would be the case, a still further decrease compared with the
previous months of 1866 and the last half of 1865, and yet the tota
entered at the port is larger than for the same period of either of the
previous three years. The whole value landed here during the last
four weeks was $6,687,738 of which $4,846,822 went directly into con¬
sumption and $2,340,916 went in warehouse.. There was also with¬
drawn from warehouse during the same period $2,093,963, making a
total thrown on the market in May of $6,445,785.

here be stated, that the road itself has scarcely cost onehalf the aggregate expenditures of the company. The wharves and
works at Elizabeth port, Port Johnston, and Communipaw, and the ferryinterests, lands, and miscellaneous properties make up the other moiety
of the general cost. To understand the grand progress of the works
connected with this road, it is only necessary to state, that at the
inauguration of the coal trade in 1856, the capital (shares and bonds)
of the company was only $4,500,000 ; it is now more than $12,000,000,
and probably three million more will be required to complete the im¬
mediate projects now being carried out by the company. In one year
—the last of record—the cost of the company’s property rose from
$114,865 to $164,796 per mile of road, and yet so liberal were the nett
earnings, that the usual dividend of 10 per cent was paid on the in¬
creased capital. The accounts which follow show the progress of the
capital, business, and general interests of the company, yearly, for the
seven
years ending Deeember 31, 1865.
The rolling stock—engines and cars—owned by the company at the
close of each year, is shown in the following statement:

Lambertville and Trenton to Philadelphia, and it is possible that a better
route to that city may be furnished by the construction of a short line
between Lambertville and Doylestown, the terminus of a branch of the
North Pennsylvania Railroad. The improvements already completed
have more than doubled its general traffic i& the past three or lour
years. But the great value of the road lies in its coal-carrying business,
commenced ten years ago, anti now aggregating a million tons a year.
The mineral is brought both from the Lehigh and Lackawanna regions,

Although the latest statement published by the Board of Trade re¬
lating to the imports of wool into the United Kingdom in January and
February showed a heavy falling off from last year, to the extent,
namely, of nearly three million pounds, the return for the three months
•recently issued exhibits more satisfactory figures, inasmuch as the
imports for that period were about one million pounds in excess of the
corresponding period in 1865. The decline in our imports during the
two months, however, has no effect in giving
prices an upward move¬
ment; for, although the wool trade in January and February exhibited
firmness, the fluctuations in prices Were to a very trifling ext' nt. Up
to the close of January, last year, two million and a half
pounds of the
Australian clip had arrived, owing to the
rapid passages made by
several of the Australian clippers; but during the
present year, in con¬
sequence chiefly of the lateness of the Australian season, the vessels
have arrived several weeks later.
Hence the decline in the
importa
tion. From the fact that very few vessels arrived from Australia dur¬
ing the month of February, the import in March was very large—viz.,
13,051,089 lbs., against 8,592,920 lbs. last year, and 5,127,949 lbs. in
1864.
1 he increase in March, this year, as
compared with last, was
4,500,000 lbs., and this sum more than compensates for the (diminution
in the supply received during the month of
February; for the import
from Australia during the first quarter of the
year was 1,500,000 lbs.
greater than during the corresponding period in 1865, the supply for
those periods being 13,498,843 lbs., and 11,086,398 lbs. iu 1866 and
1866 respectively. The imports for the three
months, distinguishing
the leading sources of supply, were as under:

Respecting our exports of wool, the figures presented to us are most
important; but they are far from satisfactory. During the past three
months
the diminution in our shipments of wool, the
produce of the
British Possessions and of foreign countries, had amounted to no less
than 3,400,000 lbs, as compared with last
year ; and there was also a

slight decrease in the supply of home-grown produce takeu by exporters
during the same period. So far as exports are concerned, the figures
.

for the three mouths

recovered.

It is well to bear iu mind that, although
the supply of wool
being offered at the public sales is much larger than at the corres¬
ponding sales last year, it is certain that the supply to be brought forward
at the next
sales will exhibit a considerable
tailing oft. It has been
known for some months that the
aggregate supply of Cape and Aus¬
tralian wool to be offered at the
public sales and by private contract
will not differ essentially in
quantity this year from last. Hence it fol¬
lows that, in the event of a larger
supply being sold at oue series of
sales than at the corresponding sales last
year, there must be a de¬
ficiency in the remaining auctions to be held. The heavy fall in the
price of cotton will affect certain descriptions of wool, but can scarcely
operate very materially on the fine surplus forwarded by the Australian
now

growers.
'
We have had a week of
remarkably fine weather, and
tions are now in most districts
completed. Present

sowing opera¬
appearances are

most

satisfactory, and the probabilities are, so far as we can judge at
early period of the year, that the crops will be a fair average.
There is abundance of grass in the
pastures; but, so far as grass land
for mowing is concerned, much rain will be
required before an estimate
can be formed of the cro s of
hay. It i9 ceitain, however, owing to the
increased breadth of land which will be mown this
year in consequence
of the scarcity of stock in several of the
paying districts, that fully an
average supply will be stacked. The trade in agricultural produce has
been somewhat injured by the
panic i i financial circles, and wheat has
declined in price. The wheat markets have also been influenced
by the
favorable accounts from the continent
respecting the German dispute
and by the fineness of the weather.
Wheat is still very high in pi ice,
although the quotations have slightly declined during the current week.
We notice further small
shipments to the United States of American
this

wheat.

Friday, June I, 1866, P. M.

The Money Market.—There has been a steady recovery daring
the week from the monetary derangements noted in our last. The
Government has disbursed

largely, on account of the redemption of
indebtedness; and in this way the banks have had re¬
turned to them a large portion of the currency with which they
parted in payment of checks drawn against gold purchased from
the Government. At the West exchanges have again turned in fa¬
vor of this city, and moderate remittances of
currency are being re¬

prospect of prolonged

Week ending Jan. 26—bales.

receipts at all the ports the past week have still further decreasec
and reach only 16,000 bales. This rapid falling off evidently indicates
an
exhaustion of the supply. The exports for the week are only
17,000 bales, against 25,000 bales last week. It will be rememberec
that in the second week in April, the total exported was nearly 70,000
bales, and from that time to May 4th (the latest dates at Liverpool
from America when the Persia sailed) we had been sending to Europe
an
average^of 50,000 bales and receiving at the ports above 36,000
bales per week. Return news from that side of our present small
receipts and shipments, and the unfavorable reports received and sent
out the past two weeks in regard to the growing crop are looked for
with much interest. The total receipts at all the ports since September

demand may be iuferred from the fact that within the past fortnight
40,000 bushels of wheat have been sent from this market alone into the

The supplies of wheat are still below the current wants of the
market, but the stray cargoes which reach us by canal are at once
pressed for sale, and the close was 1 @2c lower.

MARKET.
/

[For the week ending May 19.]
The market

again poorly supplied, and another round was
prices. A full cent was added to the current
rates of last week.
Only 2,600 bullocks were on sale at Allerton’s
Monday; and as 2,450 had been sold here, at Bergen and the lesser
market places, or sent direct to the slaughter houses, an outsider would
see no particular
necessity for an advance, the 5,000 or more bullocks
falling but little below the average number sold last year. •fThere is
however, a great demand for beef at the present time, and so closely
have the cattle ueen sold off in the surrounding co ntry that butchers
from a circle of fifty miles are nearly all dependent upon this market

generally coming forward in better condition
this Spring than usual. Of the 3,228 sold at 44th street this week,
2,900 were from Illinois, and were almost uniformly good smooth 6$ to
7$ cwt. steers. The even quality leaves a small range of prices, viz.,
from 15c for the poorest, which were quite passable, to 18c tor the tops
fine fat bullocks. The cattle were al in the first day, and none to speak
of remained unsold Monday night.
Milch cows continue dull, with only about half the number thrown
upon the market that there were last week. A very small proportion
of those on sale are really good fresh cows, the major portion of them
being the clearings-out of the milk stables, which are closing out their
stock in accordance with the ordinance which permits only 15 cows to
be kept upon an acre within the Metropolitan District.
Prices are un¬
changed} possibly a little firmer, ranging from $50 to $100, generally
$65 to $S0i
An advance in beef helps the calf trade, especially as the receipts
continue to fall off.
The best calves now bring 13c, and in lots good
veals sell at ll@12c, with only the thin poor animals at 9@10c.
