THE FINANCIAL SITUATION.
The suspense and
uncertainty as to the Treasury policy
produced a short time ago a good deal of uneasiness in
financial circles, the
depressing effects of which were diffused
throughout the mercantile and industrial movements of the
country. Now that Mr. Boutwell has told us what he means
to do, it is
only fair to look for a general responsive reaction
in business.
And this is

The transition state
through which our finances are pass¬
be further illustrated by the absorption of our float¬
ing capital into fixed forms. How far this process has gone,
what prodigious amounts of
money have been invested in the
South, in the West, and indeed in every section of the coun¬
try, we may form some idea by noting the vast numbers of
new
buildings which are rising up in every town, city, and
village where there is any industrial enterprise, commercial
activity or agricultural progress. Our railroads are being ex¬
tended and are doing
for the most part a profitable business.
The great trunk lines of the South are all
resuscitating and
several new pathways of commerce are
being projected to

Now all these
improvements cost money. They absorb
large amounts from the reservoir of floating capital and fix it

has exceeded the demand, and the sales have not been sufficient to sus¬

begin to show some signs of increasing.
Producers, accordingly, are
easily dealt with, and have in some cases submitted to prices
which they would not accept on
Tuesday. On the whole, however,
prices have not given way much, considering how little business has

throughout the week, but,
although holders have been free sellers, prices have not given way
much.
The imports are only light this week, owing to the easterly
winds which have prevailed, but spinners have abstained from buying
more than their immediate wants
required. This flatness in the cottm
market has had the usual effect upon the German buyers in this mar¬
ket, who have done almost no business during the week, and until they
have disposed of their previous
purchases they are not likely to resume
business here on a large scale, unless they are
tempted by producers
accepting lower prices than they are at present disposed to take.

to Cronstadt before the close
of the season. There is also a fair prospect of an increase of tra ie with
India this year, the Secrerary of State having already advertised for
additional supplies; and it is also expected that before long rails will be
wanted in connection with the Australian railways.
The weather continues very brilliant, and from all parts of the country
the accounts respecting the growing crops are extremely satisfactory.
The young
wheat plant looks remarkably strong and healthy, and it

asserted that the prospect is more encouraging than it was at this
time last year. The crop of Spring corn also promise to be more abund¬
even
ant, while the hay crop looks very favorable, which is greatly to be
desired, for hay has been a very dear commodity in this country for
months past. The mouth of April has been a very remarkable
month, and vegetation has made great as well as healthy progress. A
letter from Yorkshire states that in the farming districts of North and
many
East Yorkshire wheat has
looked
better, and, indeed, has thick¬
ened so much from the genial winter in some places that
part of the
crop has been harrowed up. Spring corn has come up rapidly, and has
grown fast, except that a sharp northeast wind has somewhat checked
its growth this week.
Where not closely grazed during winter, seeds
and pastures are full of promise, but mostly are late.
The quantity of
corn, feeding cake, Ac., giving to stock during the scarcity of the past
four months must have had, and indeed is having, its effect, and a rich
growth of grass is anticipated. Farm work has got forward, and atten¬
tion is thus early being turned to the potato and
turnip lands, which
work well.
The lamb crop is every where a good one and
healthy. Our
imports of wheat continue to fall off to a considerable extent. In April

together this
week, and it is feared that other firms are seriously embarrassed. The
difficulties, however, are in connection with the heavy fall which has
taken place during the last four or five months in the value of
barley,
oats, beans, peas, and indian corn ; and not so much with the rapid
decline in the price of wheat. Our own wheat
crop was so large, and the
accounts from abroad were so
very satisfactory that a heavy decline in
the value of that commodity was
inevitable, and consequently the whole
trade have operated with the utmost caution
throughout the season.
Such has not, however, been the case with
regard to spring corn. The
crops here were so very deficient that the trade were of opinion that high
prices would have been maintained throughout the season ; but high
quotations have attracted larger supplies of foreign produce than had
been anticipated, and the result has been that the rates have
heavily,
an -I, to the
importer, seriously declined.
The abundant receipts of
Indian corn have also very material
y hastened the downward m ve
ment in the value of
feeding stuffs.
The money market has not presented
auy feature of great import¬
ance.
The advance in the New York
exchange to IC9-J- has had some
influence in promoting ease, but a
heavy settlement in the London
Stock Exchange and also on the Paris Bourse has created some addi¬
tional demand for accommodation.
The quietness of trade, and the
apathy with which new loans are received by the public are clearly
in favor of continued ease, but
considering the proneness of several of
cur
large financial houses to embark in foreign loans, it is certainly
advisable that the Bank minimum should remain
at four per cent.
Russian, Spanish, and Danubian loans have commanded very
little attention cn this side, but the Russian loin h s been well received

throughout the South during the past week, but cotton is
undoubtedly backward, and will need much and immediate cleaning to
ensure a good stan I.
We hear some talk of abandoning portions of the
land planted, the weeds, they claim, having grown so fast as to make it
necessary to give up part to secure the balance.
It is very difficult to
say what reliance is to be placed on these early rumors of injury done.
Of course, the disposition is always to exaggerate, and such rumors do
not lose anything by traveling ; but we are inclined to think, as stated
above, that thus far the start has not been favorable, and that the try¬
ing time is now to come, the question being reduced to a contest between
the weeds and the labor supply.
