Planting began more than two weeks earlier than lust year, and the seed came up well. May was remarkably cold, and the growth was checked dining that month, but in general there was no excess of rain, so that the fields were kept well cultivated and clean. About the last of May and first of Junt it turned warm, the plant began to grow riipidly, and the latter part of that month the condition became quite i>romi8iug. at We make these remarks because of the extravagant estimates afloat from as to the loss in productiveness to follow this de- crease in fertilizers used. In connection with the question of it is homemade manures, from the Census report that there Georgia, 95,000 farms of less than 50 acres interesting to note were in 1880, in Such small farmers could easily make all their own fertilizers; and the evidence goes to show that Southern farmers are growing wiser and more saving in this par- main exception being drought in the lower counties of Texas, and at some other points, and cold nights in certain sections for about ten days or more in June. The spring opened early" and the ground was well prepared. March and April were, on the whole, both favorable for farm work, and May and the first hiilf of June were also favorable. The main exception to this has been that in a portion of the Gulf States aud Mississippi Valley there was too much rain. The spring opened fuUy two weeks to some extent be cumulative in effect. Finally, the check now reported comes with the report of decreased acreage in the same sections where they are used, and the loss farm work, but 1881. on the same land, must least as the diminished fertilizers for Since the first of Jime, take the whole cotton section together, the conditions have been very satisfactory, except that there is a small section of the Gulf States where the complaint still is, too much rain. the succeeding there has been steady progress in the consumption of fer- March and April were generally favorable the weather has been generally favorable everywhere, the year, the purchase of these commercial preparations has probably rain auduppcrlatitudesof other States, down to almost the second week of May, the temperature was far too low for vegetation, heavy frost being reported as late as the 4th aud 5th of April.

The labor strikes have been brought more directly under the consideration of railroad managers and stockholders, by the resistance of the f reiglit handlers at the trunk line termini in New York, who demand 20 cents per hour instead of 17 cents, and have occasioned mucli inconvenience in the shipment and We do not uphold the receipt of freight over those roads. righteousness of strikes, and by no means the unlawful violence often practised by strikers towards non-union men or towards employers; but when a workingman who is supposed to represent an average family of five persons, asks that he may get 20 cents an hour for employment that is not regular, his demand does not seem altogether unreasonable to an outsider. Granting that the men are not furnished with work during one-fifth of their time, and the wages would amount to $10 per week, or about $500 per year. Does this appear to our railroad officers to be an exorbitant sum for tlie support of five persons, when pork is $20 per barrel, flour $9 per barrel, butter 25 cents per lb., and rents 25 per cent higher than last believe that the workingmen often prejudice year? the public against them rather by their violence, foolishness and uproariousness, than by the absolute unfairness of their demand for wages. The money market has been easy within a range of 2@2i4 per cent for call loans on government collateral and 2^@l per cent on stock collaterals. Prime commercial paper of two to four months sells at 5@5}^ per cent.

The market for foreign exchange was strong enough to admit of the shipment of $1,420,000 gold by the mid-week Tsteamers, or at least not weak enough to preTent it.

Eailroad bonds have been more active on a well-distributed business in the New York market, and with large transactipns As allthe in Philadelphia & Reading bonds in Philadelphia. old bonds, whether mortgage bonds or not, constitute an obligation of the company, it is obvious that the interest on all must be paid if the company is to maintain its credit; and hence all the junior issues have jumped up this week, as the payment of back interest on the general mortgage and income mortgage bonds was begun. Railroad and MisccUaneons Stocks.—The stock market has been well sustained when we consider the remarkable advance of last week, and the fact that there lias been no essential change in the commercial situation. It does not appear that the rise was produced merely by a temporary rush to cover short contracts, but while that influence unquestionably helped the advance, and made it more sudden, there was also strong purchasing on the bull side. The principal reaction from tlie best prices made has been led by Louisville & Nashville and Denver & Rio Grande, and in regard to the first named it was known that there was dissension in the board of directors and that two members had resigned. This led to all sorts of damaging rumors, whicli, however, met with a persistent denial at the office, and an assertion that the But even if it is paid, next dividend would be paid. there will now be some suspicion that it is like the Rio Wabash dividend of November, 1881. The Denver Grande stock, having passed its dividends, is easily depressed, and the increased obligations are not known to be balanced by a corresponding increase in net earnings. The & Paul stock is stronger than last week, and it is reported on good authority that Mr. Vanderbilt has recently bouglit quite St. a block of it it is also stated quite positively at the office that the 10 per cent stock to be issued against undivided profits will be distributed as a stock dividend. We regret to say that last week we were misled by a very direct and positive statement published that a leading director had made quite a different assertion. The account even gave the report of a personal interview and the very words used, but it has since been flatly contradicted by the director in question. The Philadelphia & Reading movement has been { ming the great events of the week, and the stock has been exctpiionaUy strong and active, as well as the bonds. The prospectus for a loan of $13,000,000 of the new five per cent consolidated mortgage was issued Friday morning, but as to actual work accomplished by Mr. Gowen the public yet has absolutely no certain information, and amid the bushels of rumors the only grain yet of solid hard fact consists in the cash now being paid out on the over-due coupons, as above stated.

This was understood to mean plainly that the 10 per cent issued to represent surplus earnings would be a stock dividend to stockholders, and it was so stated in the Cheonicle. But presently reports were circulated that 10 per cent would be issued to stockholders on the payment of par in cash, and the other 10 per cent to represent surplus earnings would be sold at its full market price, and there would be no stock dividend at all. As the CHEOincLE had no other purpose than to give the true facts of the case, the natural course was pursued of sending to the company's office to get a correct account of the matter, but at the office nothing further was known than what the first press dispatches had contained, as Mr. Wadsworth had not returned from the West.

Tbera has been some specnlative demand, however, at the low prieM, and some indications that export trade ma/ shortly show aa improvement. The depression has been most marked in th« lower gradai of both spring and winter, and the better grades are beginning to show rather more steadinem in price. owing to the fact that they are by no meaas plentifal, bat th« lowness of trade militates against any statistical advantage which may favor holders. To-day the market was very slow and the low grades cootinaed depressed. Wheat has been irregnlar and unsettled, owing to the frequent fluctuations at Chicago. The clique there is being aided here by sales for export at exceptionally low prices, in order to dispose of the wheat which is being shipped eastward from Chicago in order to put it oat of the reach of the short«. To this end sales have been made here of No. 2 red at |1 37 f. o.b. while the same grade in elevator for home use sold at |1 49.^0 |1 48.

There was an urgent desire on the part of Western and Soutliwestern buyers to make shipments of flannel blankets, dark prints, jeans and staple cotton goods under their present favorable freight contract.^, as it has been officially announceci that the schedule for West-bound freights will be heavily advanced on the 1st proximo. For seasonable goods there was only a limited demand at first hands, and the jobbing trade in staple and department goods was fair for the time of year, though by no means active. Domestic Cotton Goods.— The exports of cotton goods during the week were 2,547 packages, of which 1,245 were sent to Great Britain, 511 to Africa, 162 to Argentine Republic, PI to lots of British West Indies, 55 to Hamburg. &c. The demand at first hands was irregular, but the volume of business was fairly large, taking into consideration the freight embargo that pre- vailed the greater part of the week. Cotton flannels were freely shipped from the mills in execution of back orders, and there was a demand for certain makes of fine brown and fouryard sheetings. Bleached goods and wide sheetings were in fair, but irregular demand, and there was a moderate business in ducks, denims, tickings, and other colored cottons. of bleached goods are a trifle easier in price, but the tone of the market is generally steady. Print cloths were in fair demand and firm at 3 13-16c. for64xt)4sand3%c.@3 7-16c. for 56x60.s. Dark prints were (Jecidedly more active, and some large lots were shipped to Western markets subject to the Some makps opening price.

I)oME.3Tic Woolen Goods.— The main feature of the woolengoods market has been a much more active demand for flannels and blankets, resulting in a satisfactory business. Colored flannels met with liberal sales, and dress flannels and sackings were in good r<>quest. Colored blankets continued to move steadily, and white blankets were taken with more freedom. Men's-wear woolens were mostly quiet as regards new business, and the movement on account of back orders was considerably lessened by the freight blockade. Leading makes of heavy cassimeres. suitings, worsteds, overcoatings, etc., continue sold up to production, and prices are consequently steady. Cloakings were in fair but irregular demand, and there was a moderately good business in Kentucky jeans and doeskins; but satinets ruled quiet. Heavy shirts and drawers were a little more active, as were staple and fancy hosiery, but buyers are still cautious in their operations. FoEEioN Dry Goods were almost uniformly quiet in first hands, as usual at this time of year; but the most staple fabrics remain steady in price, and stocks are in pretty gooci shape. There was a steady call by retailers for small assorted lots of seasonable goods, but the business done by jobbers was only moderate in the aggregate. risible ports, XXXI v.
