In fact, the acuteness of the crisis in Paris being now a matter of the past, there is no reason why there should Pennsylvania connect at Yonng.otown.

This week's Bank return has been looked forward to with it is certainly quite as favorable as had been anticipated. Before the next return is issued a further addition will ba made to the supply of gold. The present increase amounts to £1,436,148, against a recorded influx of £1,186,000, showina: that in addition to our importations about £250,000 in sovereigns has been returned from provincial circulation. There has also besn a reduction in the note circulation of £376,610, making an increase in the total reserve of £1,?12,758. The proportion of reserve to liabilities has increased therefore from 33'12 to 37 60 percent. The Bank of England is now in a position somewhat stronger than prior to the crisis on the Paris Bonrse. On January 25 the supply of bullion held by the Bank amounted to £30,400,920 ; it is now £20,737,213. The reserve was £10,976,115; but it now reaches a total of £11,748,478, showing a moderate increase in both instances. On January 25 the proportion of reserve to liabilities was 39 per cent., and it is now 37"60 per cent. This reduction does not materially affect, however, the general position, the liabilities of the Bank having been augmented under the heads of public and private deposits, due in a groat measure to the collection of the revenue. Money was wanted in the earlf part of the week, chiefly on acconnt of the settlement on the Stock Exchange, which proved, however, to be lighter than for some time past. The directors of the Bank of England charged as much as 7 per cent for loans on the best of securities, and on the Stock Fzchange loans were only obtainable at 10 to 12 per cent per annum. Since the settlement was completed, the demand for money has subsided, bnt there has been a fair inquiry for loans for short periods. The discount market has been very quiet, and the quotations are as follows considerable interest, and United States has caused a very dull feeling to pervade the trade in this country, and prioea bare declined to the extent of 48. to 28. per quarter. The supply of produce afloat being atiU large, and the weather being very favorable for agricultural work, millers operate with great caution and only to supply actual wants. At the close of the week there has been ratht^r more disposition shown to buy, but the trade is greatly wanting in animation and there are no signs of improvement. The Australian crop gathered in at the close of last year la now ia> process of shipment. The yield is understood to be decidedly superior to the small crop of 1880, but is not believed to b« equal to that of 1879. With the existing large sopplies, buyem can well afford to operate cautiously and await the result of the Indian, Egyptian and Chilian harvests, - the time for securing which is not so very far distant. We must now eipect, however, our own supplies to fall off considerably, as British farmers, out of a small crop, have been marketing their produce freely since the commencement of the season. Advices from Vienna state that for five weeks neither ralanor snow fell in Austria until Thursday, when there was aa hour's rain. The drought is inspiring the most serious apprehensions in all quarters. On the one hand Vienna is threatened with a total failure of the water supply, the reservoirs in the neighboring mountains being now perilously low ; but, in the second place, the country is menaced with a far more dire calamity. Unless there is soon a plentiful downpour of rain, the crops in most parts of the empire will be in the greateat danger, and the farmers, who have had to suffer much of late years, will be ruined. It may be observed, however, that inEngland we have had a remarkably dry autumn and winter, and yet farmers were never more pleased with the condition of their land, and with the appearance of their crops.

Prominent citizens of Tennessee have been in New York conferring with bondholders regarding the State debt. This delegation suggests as the most feasible measure a funding scheme based on 50 per cent of the present indebtedness, with 5 or 6 per cent, interest. It is also proposed that the settlement shall be based on the price paid by the bondholder for his securities, on the ground that a settlement is predicated upon the equities rather than upon the technical rights of the parties. The Governor will not, it is said, convene an extra session of the Legislature unless some distinct proposition is previously made by the bondholders. BANKING AND FINANCIAL. Silver.

The statement of total passenger traffic on all our lines shows an apparent decrease in earnings from through passengers, and a very large increase in the earnings from local passengers, which without explanation is likely to lead to an errimeous conclusion. During the entire year our company has been comoelled by competition to sell tickets between its terminal and junction stations at very low rates, which has induced a large number of through passengers to purchase local tickets. We have no means of showing accurately the actual number of local or through passengers during the year. The tonnage of freight transported one mile during the year was 34,464,753 tons, or 7 16-100 per cent, less than in 1880. The reduction was mainly in wheat, com and flour. The reduction in the quantity of wheat being 2,968,881 bushels, or 46 89-100 per cent.; corn, 3,428,396 bushels, or 26 92-100 per cent.; flour, 310,420 barrels, or 31 4-10 per ^ » » » cent. "The increased cost of operating and maintaining our lines dnnng the last year has been in part the result of increased prices paid for labor and materials. But the severity of the .last winter, the unusual amount of snow obstructing the tracks in January and February, followed by extremely dry weather in August and September, involving a large amount of damage (especially in Missouri) from accidental Area ignited by sparks from locomotives, and damage caused by floods and storms in autumn, have also contributed largely to that result " As some of our shareholders appear to believe that our railway is mainly supported by earnings derived directly from the transportation of the products of farms, the fonowing statement*, which hare been prepared from our books for the puroose of showing the gro(to,,eamingg from that part ofv ouri »traffic during the last year, are submitted Gross earns. ji„_,.„,, on shipments Percent. of gross Per et. of gross earns, on earn^gs. freight on all ^^' Oata Cattle HogB «S2Sriei-(irt:):;::::::::::::::;;;;: lotal., traffic. $127,704 370,047 74,260 188,951 ''^iili 85,195 .$1,100,986 2-30'2 traffic. 1-536 1-C89 4-896 0-982 2-500 3-371 1-127 J9-84S 14-567 6-671 l-33.« 3-406 4*91 J>lshurseinents- 595,125 Rentals paid Construction Interest on debt Taxeet Dividends 562,751 448,261 865,109 2,000 30,737 Miscellancotis La. & Mo.

The annual report of President Dickson says in reference tO' 1881: " The business of the year yielded a profit on the capital' stock of a fraction over 10}6 per cent. The policy of restriction^ was judiciously applied by the producing compaiiies daring theyear, benefiting producer and consumer alike. Nearly uniform prices were maintained, and the violent fluctuations which are inseparable from an over-stocked market were avoided, and while prices were fairly remunerative to the producer, they were satisfactory to the consumer, and led to the consumption of the largest required quantit}'. Consumption not having overtaken the ability to produce, the mines were operated on half time for nearly the first half of the year. "The leased lines of the company show satisfactory results.

The general remarks in the annual report state that " it has t)een found necessary to still farther incruase the operating facilities of the road by additions to the car-shopa, sidings at various points, and double track near Milton. The aggregate cast of this work during 1881 was $135,278 as against |lO»i,667 in 1880. These expenditures, while not an actual operating charge, have l>een cla.<ised as extraordinary expenses, and paid from the «arnings of the property. The means for the payment of the 2.000,(X)0 of currency and Xi)00,000 of sterling bonds, the principal of which matured March 31, 1881, were provi(ied by the «ala of $S.2t!3,000 of generul mortgage loan of date July ], 1869, said bonds being issued in registered form for $1,000 each, bearing interest at the rate of five per cent per annum. All said maturing bond.s, with the exception of three currency for $1,000 each and one sterling for £300, have been redeemed and canceled, the money for the payment of the bonds still outstanding being held by the Penn.sylvania Railroad Company for the redemption of the same on presentation."

By the terms of the compromise, however, neither the Atchison nor the Atlantic & Pacific surrender any of their rights to build in California. The agreement stipulates that the Atlantic & Pacific Road is to be completed during the carrent year to the Colorado River. The Southern Pacific will build east to meet it, as the act of Congress of July 27, 1866, requires, and agrees to pay to the Atlantic & Pacific 2.1 per cent. of its gross earnings on through business, which is to be applied to the payment of interest on the Atlantic & Pacine bonds, the same as the Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe and the St. Louis & San Francisco companies. The Atlantic & Pacific, in consideration of this agreement being carried out, stipulates that the present subscription shall be reduced from $16,500,000 to less than |6,.')00,000. Of the latter amount about $5,000,000 will be required to finish and equip its road to the Colorado River, and the balance to build its Indian Territory division. nnlTalo N.
