:
A dispatch from Wa-shington to the effect that the Supreme
Court had decided that the Ohio & Mississippi preferred stock
Las no claims beyond those of the common stock was erroneous; at least as it was worded. Suit was brought some years
ago in the Western courts on behalf of the holders of the
$4,300,000 of preferred stock to have it given priority to the
second mortgage bonds as a lien upon the road. This was denied, and the decision is afflrmad by the Supreme Court; but
the status of the seven years' accumulated dividends on the
preferred stock as against the common stock was not brought
into question.

Railroad building shows a large falling off this year, just
as we predicted, and for four months, from Jan. 1
(o May 1, there were constructed about 1,450 miles, against
2,300 in tlie same time last year. But even this includes some

Pacific and the N. Y. West Shore & Buffalo ?
Will the railroad building of 1883 probably exceed a total of 0,000 miles?
Tliere has been some discussion in Wall Street respecting the
new financial bills passed by the New York Legislature, particularly the Page bill as to savings banks, which awaits the

State and Uailroad Bonds.—There is simply nothing doing
in Southern State bonds, and beyond the bid and asked quotations on another page there is nothing to report of them.
Railroad bonds have still been quite active on certain specialties, and in several issues tlie recorded sales at the Board
were very large. The N. Y. West Sliore & Buffalo 5 per cent
mortgage bonds have again been prominent, and the full
amount of the loan, $50,000,000, being now outstanding, there
can be no more bonds of this class issued. Tlie Atlantic &
Pacific income bonds have also been very active and advanced
sharply; the report was current that negotiations for a large
sale of the company's bonds to foreign capitalists had been
successful, but if tliis was premature, it waa known that such
negotiations were in progress, under favorable auspices. Rich& Dan. debentures have been largely dealt in at higher figures.

"The Sea Isle City Railroad extends from naar Seaville StaiiOD, on the main line, to Sea Isle City, on Ladlam's Beach, a

" The Woodstown & Swedesboro Railroad, extending from
Swedesboro, through Woodstown, to Oakland, a station on the
Salem Railroad seven miles from Salem, is very nearly comJleted, and will be thrown open for public use early in the year
883. It is 11^ miles long, and will be of great value in developing a section of New Jersey that has heretofore been without
lailroad facilities, and will shorten the travel between Salem

executed between the W. J. Company and the Wood.stown &
Swedesboro, by and under which the West Jersey furnishes all
equipment, operates and maintains the line, and pays over-to
the contracting company any remaining balance of gross earnings after the said operating expenses, taxes, etc.
" A number of projected lines, tending to the development of
that section of the State lying npon the sea coast, as well as of
inland portions, are in progress, all of which will be carefully

giving an impulse to the growth of vegetation and somewhat
improving crop prospects. The Agricaltural Bureau's report of
the condition of winter grain May 1 is of a more hopeful nature
than was expected and this is regarded as a favorable ele,
commercial situation. Trade has been only fairly

the market from dulness.
Lard has been firm, and those interested in higher prices have
had the advantage. The speculation, however, has not been
large and the legitimate movement is not satisfactory. Pork
has received attention for conbnmption and export, but the
speculative market has been devoid of interest. To-day mess
pork sold on the spot at $20 40(3i$20 50, and clear back at

Kbobifts fbom thb PLAiiTATioas.— The following table ia
prepared for the purpose of indicating the actual movement each
week from the plantations. Receipt."! at the outpjrts are sometimes mi.sleadiug, as they are n:.ade up more largely one year
than another at the eipen.'te of the interior stocks. We reach
therefore, a safer conclusion through a comparative statement
like the following.
In reply to frequent inquiries we will add
that these figures, of course, do not include overland receipts or
Southern con.sumption; they are simply a statement of the
weekly movement from the plantations of that part of the crop
which finally reaches the market through the out-t>orts.

ISDiA Cotton Movkkent fbom all Ports.— We have during
the past year been endeavoring to rearrange our India service

more accurate. Hitherto we have found it impossible to keep
OTit of our figures, as cabled to us for the ports other than.
Bombay, cargoes which proved only to be shipments from one
India port to another. The plan we have now adopted, as we
have reason to believe, will relieve us from the danger of thia
inaccuracy and keep the totals correct.

Agricdltueal Bueeau Report. The Agricultural Department at Washington issued on the 10th inst. its May report on
the Condition of wheat. The report is as follows
The May returns of wheat to the Department of Asriculture make
the condition as compared with .^pril averaces materially Unver in
New York and Miihii^an :nd in Ohio and Illinois. Further fi.jurr was
wiousht hy rroste caily lu Ayril, and in the more northeru diistrifts
the real damage bj' March freezing was more fully disclosed as the
covering if snow and ice disapiwai'cd.
The average is 77 for New
York, tne deprecation beiua heaviest in Ouonaiiga. Niagara, Genesee
And Ontario; for Michigan 83; for Ohio 62; for Illinois 60. Further
loFB is suffered by plowiug up of large areas iu Ohio and Illinois.
A
reducUou in Missouri from 83 to 80 is also reported. In Indiaiuv the
condition averages 75. and New Jirsey reports 101, both the same as
in April. All the reuiainiug northern Stales show an Improvement
since the April reiwrt, as well as the Faeiflo Coast, and nearly all of
the Southern States. The averages are
Connecticut, 90 Pennsylvania, 95 Delaware, 85
Maryland, 99

ciused rather more inquiry for some descriptions of fall goods,
for which jobbers in remote sections of the country are desirous of securing cheap transportation, but transactions in this
connection have been only moderate as yet. The weather has
become more f.ivorable for the retail tiade, and large quantities
of summer goods are at length pa'^sing into consumption; but
retailers are amply stocked for the present, andsome time must
neces.«arily elapse ere much improvement in the demand can be
expected by the wholesale houses.
Domestic Cotton Goods. The exports of cotton goods for the
week reached the handsome aggregate of 5,204 packages, of
which 1,523 were shipped to China, 1,247 to Africa, 1,160 to
Madagascar, 883 to Great Britain, 111 to U. S of Colombia, 105
to Brazil, &c.
There was a better demand for brown sheetings
and drills at first hands, and some large sales were made to exporters at a slight advance upon prices of a fortnight ago.
Bleached goods were in irregular demand but steadier, because
of the upward tendency of the cotton market, and colored cottons, especially cheviots and cnttonades, ruled quiet.
Cotton
Hannels and wide sheetings continued in fair request, and considerable deliveries were made by agents on account of back
orders.
Print cloths were fairly active and dearer, closing at
3 11-iec. for 64x64 "spots," 3%c. for 64x64 "futures" and 3]4@
3 3-16c. for 56x60s. Prints were quiet in the regular way, but
some fair-sized lots of "off" styles were disposed of by means
of low prices', and stocks are well in hand as a rale.
Domestic Woolen Goods. There was a slight improvement
in the demand for men's-wear woolens, the Western and nearby clothing trade having been fairly represented in the market.
Oper.tio.is were, however, conducted with more than usual caution, and selections, though footing up a fair aggregate amount,
were chit-fly of a hand-to-mouth character. Fancy cassimeres
and suitings were more sought for, but purchases were individually light and mostly restricted to a few specialties.
Worsted coatings ruled quiet, but stocks are in good shape
and prices remain s'eady. Satinets were less active, but there
was a freer movement in heavy doeskin jeans at the low
prices lately established for leading makes.
White flannels
have received more attention, but other flannels and blankets
were mostly quiet, and there was only a limited business in
blankets. Dress Goods continued in modeiate request, and
some fair orders for w.j 'jq hosiery and knit underwear were
—
—
placed for future deliv» /.
FoKEiQN Dkt Goods - -Importers have experienced a very
light demand for forei .-n goods during the week, but a fair
busine.Hs was done by some of the leading jobbers.
Silks and
satins were only in modeiate request, and operations in dress
goods were confined to a few specialties, as nun's veilings,
grenadines, light cotton fabrics, &c. Linens, white goods, laces
and embroideries ruled quiet, and men's-wear woolens were
.slow of sale; but there was a steady business in hosiery and
fabric gloves.

This is an improvement of 15 points in California and 17 in Oregon.
The average condition of the winter wheat is 83ia, against 80 in April.

In former years there were uo .May returns. Two years ago
the averajre declined to 80 iu July. Last year it Increased to 104 at the
time of cutiin.g.
It should be'uuderstood that in Di>p»rtineni; reports of condition, 100
means a medium growth, with a fall stand and a healthy plant.
Ohio and Illinois State rei)ort8 compare with last year's crop. Thus.
Ohio reports for May 56 compared with last year, aad 02 compared
With an average crop.
The spring wheat area will not be complete till May 15 and will be reported .luue 1
The statistical agent for Dakota makes the probable increase 30 per cent. The agent for Minnesota reported 80 per cent of
last year's area already planted. An increase of 15 per cent is reported
in Washington Territory.
It la not probable that iuerease iu spring
wheat area will more than make good the loss of winter wheat aci-i age.
Witliout regard to the sprlug wheat breadth, the present prospect for
the winter wheat area, in consideration of reduced condition and acreage,
Is 20 per cent less than in May last, representing a loss of about 77,000. .

from the London statistical agent snder date of April 2^,
reports au improvement lu Eiironean wheat prospects during the last
month. The seventy of .March was followed by three weeks of dry
weather, which was succeeded by one week of invigorating rain. The
season is still backward and higher temperature is needed.
The small area or auritig sown wheat lu iinglaud is thiu, and much of
It will be displaced by barley.
In France and Uermauy rain is needed and higher temperature necessary. With reduced acreago in Western Europe and some injury from
Ireezing in March, a reduced crop appears to be Inevitable. Iu AustilaHuugary the prospect is favorable for at least a medium crop.

best Essays, Reviews. Criticisms. Serial and Short
Stories. Sketches of Travel and Discovery. Poetry,
Scientiflc. Biographical. Historical and Political Information, from the entire body of Foreign Periodical Literature.
It is therefore invaluable to every American
