THE TREASURY AND THE PLETHORA OF BANK NOTES.
It is reported that Mr. Boutwell is about to take measures
for
reducing the accumulation of bank notes at this centre of
Banking system. One of the least satisfactory
the National
aspects of the financial situation is the extreme ease of our
money market, and the consequent stimulus of speculative
excitement from the accumulation of idle
capital and of bank

relieving the money market of part of its burden by sending
the notes of
country banks to the proper redeeming agents.
No practical
plan has ever been put in operation, and in the
absence of appropriate
legislation, there is some doubt
whether much can be done towards

to

checking the unhealthy
of the money market, and it might be
so
long as tbe undue accumulation of
bank notes continues at this centre.
Mr. Boutwell has full
power to do this
there is an obvious
without any additional legislation, and
propriety in the adoption of this policy,
for by holding national bank notes the Treasury virtually
lends money to the issuing banks without interest, and the
notes being payable on demand, no bank can object to its
notes being sorted and sent home in accordance with the
law.

sent
accomplishing the same object is the
formation of an assorting machinery here in connection with
the Clearing House. This plan has however been tried, and
the banks found that without compulsory legislation it could
not be made to work satisfactorily.
Such legislation the
country banks have contrived successfully to resist. If
the Treasury will adopt the plan suggested above as
a temporary palliation of the evil there is little doubt that
the proper enactment can be passed through Congress at an
early day. We are therefore gratified to learn that Mr.
Boutwell has this method of redemption under consideration,
and the promptitude with which he has taken action in
regard to the double eigles shows that now as here¬
tofore he is ready to apply a remedy whenever he is con¬
vinced that the needful power is in his hands. The subsid¬
ing of the excitement in the gold market as soon as it was
announced that a supply of double-eagles was ^available at
New Orleans, and that meanwhile the mint was engaged in
coining large pieces only, adds another illustration to the
long list of similar facts showing the vast power exercised
over every department of financial affairs by the policy of
the Treasury.
The inference is irresistible that the Secre¬
tary of the Treasury will be regarded as responsible for the
judicious use of those vast powers over the monetary
machinery with which our defective, anomalous financial sys¬
tem invests him to a greater extent than is enjoyed by the
financial minister of any other great commercial nation.
There is this further advantage in the plan here suggested
for the relief of the plethora of bapk notes.
These
notes will lie in the vaults of the banks to which they
belong until the moment arrives when there is a legitimate
demand for an increased volume of currency. When this
need comes the notes will flow out of their hiding place,
and entering into the general current of the circulation, they
will be as salutary as they are now mischievous. We lay
no stress on the fact that the Treasury will
escape the mak¬
ing of forced loans to these banks to the extent of the notes
held. However important, this is but a subordinate matter.

RAILROADS OP PENNSYLVANIA.
The annual railroad report
of the Auditor General of the State of Pennsylvania, J. F. Hartranfl, Esq., has st heen
published, and we present below an abstract of all the most important points of information in regard to each road. This
State report is one of the most valuable issued; and gives much important information. As the custom of managing railroad corporations with entire secrecy, so far as their financial affairs are concerned, is unfortunately becoming more and
more
prevalent, the public is obliged to rely upon the returns, made once a year to the State authorities, for all the infor¬
mation that is to be obtained about many of these companies, and unless we have laws passed to compel public
reports
to be made more
frequently, there is little prospect of any greater protection to stockholders than they now have. The

budget “ No. 3 ” as a “ budget of revenge.” In spite,
however, of the hardship to which clerks, &c., of £200 a year and
under, will be subject, it must be admitted that the country is
better able to pay a six-penny rate now than at any former
period.
The last six-penny rate was during the Abyssinian war, when
the country was nothing like so prosperous, and when official
liquidators were compelled to enforce calls upon unfortunate
shareholders in defunct com panies. Cotton was then much dearer
than it is now, and great caution pervaded every department of
business. The position of the country is now very different. The
war has thrown a large amount of trade into our hands; cotton is
abundant and cheap ; the woolen trade is healthy; the iron dis.
tricts are well employed ; and bread is at a moderate price.

From the
principal agricultural sections of the country the re¬
ports received during the week respecting the growing crops are
favorable. Wheat is perhaps the least satisfactory, the severe
frosts of the winter having caused the plant to decay in many
places. At the same time, there is probably less land under wheat
cultivation this season as there is evidently more attention being
paid to grazing, owing to the very lucrative price now being ob¬
tained both for beef and mutton.
The “fall” of lambs this year
has been unusually

paid to the production of beef. Some time must elapse before this

railway shares have further improved in value. With the
exception of the lines over which the Continental traffic is carried,
the traffic receipts are very favorable.
For last week, on 13,908
miles, they were as much as £870,703, against £822,712 last year
on 13,0*54 miles, showing an increase of 254 miles and of £48,051.
As the lines traversing the manufacturing districts show very sub¬
stantial increases, good evidence of the activity of our trade is
afforded. Foreign government securities, excepting United States,
Brazilian, Russian and Italian, have been dull. Atlantic and
Great Western Reorganization Stock lias been as high as 154-
premium, and the certificates of debenture are at 45 to 40. Erie
railway shares are much better, on the announcement from New
York that the demurrer put in by the directors to the Committee’s
Bill of Complaint had been overruled, acd that the directors were
ordered to file their anewer in thirty days.

the highest and lowest prices of consols and the principal
American securities on each day of the week :

Railroad
and
State
Bonds.-Southern State bonds have
active/and, as a general rule, higher. There is evidently
more confidence felt in Southern State bonds as a class, on account
of the several influences affecting the securities of the different
States, which we have heretofore noticed, the chief of these
influences being the more conservative spirit generally felt
throughout the South, and the opposition to any further increase
of their present indebtedness. Tennessees and New North Carolinas have advanced materially; the latter bonds, after deducting
the overdue interest, are obtained at a very low price, and some
of the issues are considered to be of
office at
unquestionable legality, and
as such in the State. In regard to funding the Vir¬
a circular has been issued from the Socond Auditor’s
Richmond, stating substantially that:
1. Persons wishing to fund their stock and interest will apply in person
here, or place their stock, with instructions and proper orders as to the kind
of stock they elect to take, etc , in the hands of some one outside of this office.
2. Except where stock is to he funded in the same
name, and for the same
kind of stock, a power of attorney will be required.
3. Where interest only on all registered stock s ands to the credit of a
party,
1st July, 1871, the order of the owner will be sufficient,
specifying in whose
name it shall be funded.
4. The “new certificates” of January 1, 1866, and
January 1, 1867, issued for
arrears of interest to those periods, will be
funded, with all the interest
thereon to 1st July, 1871.
5. The funding will commence on the 5th of July next.
Railroad bonds have been in good demand at firm
prices. Cen¬
tral Pacifies close at 101$@102, and Union Pacific First
Mortgage
Bonds 93$ to 93f, Land Grants 86$ to 87$, and Incomes
88$ to 89$.

The Gold Market.—Gold has been active and
advancing, and
closed at 112 against 111$ last week. The principal cause of
the higher premium has been the large export demand arising from
the high rates of exchange, which are kept up by the scarcity of
double-eagles for shipment. The difference between small coin
and double-eagles continues to be about $ per cent, and unless the
latter shall be obtained from the Sub Treasury there seems to be
little prospect that the supply from hoards and other sources will
be sufficient to meet the export demand.
The customs require¬
ments and “ short” interest in the gold market are also sources of
strength to the premium. Customs receipts for the week have
been $2,849,000. On gold loans rates for borrowing have ranged
from “ fiat” to 3 per cent, and for carrying “ flat” to 2$ per cent.
To-day the rates for carrying were 1 and 2 per cent, and for bor¬
rowing 1 and 2 per cent to “flat.” At the Government sale of
$2,000,000 on Thursday, the total bids amounted to $5,910,000.
and the awards
were between 111.90 and 112.01.
The export of
specie last week was about $3,000,000, and tlie shipments for the
week ending to-morrow will probably be near the same figures.
The following table will show the course of the gold premium
each day of the week past:

Notwithstanding the high quotations th« demand for exchange
has been rather better, as some parties lately holding off for lower
prices of gold and sterling have become discouraged, and pur
chased at current rates.
There have been increased shipments of government bonds by
the foreign banking houses, but not to such an extent as to
balance tlie trade movement, and exchange will probably continue
firm for some time to come.
Today there was a perceptibly easier
feeling, and while asking rates were unchanged, transactions were
frequently done at a concession. Cotton exports from all ports
have been 77,384 bales against 45,787 bales in the same week last
year.

The main suit was tried in the Special Term, and
judgment given against the Fisk party. An appeal was taken,
and the General Term Lave given a decision affirming the judg¬

continued, the Ramsey directors to have immediate possession,
and costs to be paid by the Fisk party.

The gross earnings of the road have been very satisfactory, but

It will
he noticed that the earnings of the banking department have
been small, and somewhat less than the receipts for the previous
year.
This resulted from the fact that our cash capital, previously
small, was mostly absorbed in some extra outlays and investments,
by which interest and discount account were of course reduced.
As an auxiliary to our other business, the means of advancing to
merchants and business men are very desirable, and, as one means
of supplying this want, the Board proposed an increase of capital
to an extent
not
exceeding $5,000,000, and obtained permission of
the Legislature for that purpose.
Subscriptions were obtained to
the amount of $44,800, and the subscription suspended until the
of the stockholders could, be bad on this mode of increasing
of the company. The sense of the Convention is
respectfully asked on this subject. The very heavy outlays neces¬
sary for improvement of property and to secure our Southwestern
connections, as explained in our last annual report, added to the
inducements to increase cash resources in some form. This could
sense
the
resources
only be done by increased subscriptions to capital, by an increase
of. bonded debt, or by sale of securities. These resources have
ali been partially resorted to, and by reference to the state of the
company now exhibited and compared with that of last year you

Since the first mortgage six per cent loan of the Company for
$15,000,000, now in process of negotiation, for the purpose of
extending the road to the Ohio River, as a great Blast and West
Trunk line, was first placed upon the market, over $7,000,000
have been sold. The proceeds from the sales of the bonds have
kept the Company amply supplied with means for vigorously
pushing forward the work on the extension of the road between
the White Sulphur Springs (the present Western terminus, to
which the road is completed and in operation, 227 miles from
Richmond), and the final western terminus on the Ohio River, and
have been economically and judiciously applied to that purpose.
The rapidity with which the bonds are now being taken, in
exchange for five-twenties and for new investments, insures the
early sale of the remaining balance of the loan, which will
yield an amount sufficient for the completion of the work. For
various reasons it was deemed important by the directors that the
western end of the road, from the Ohio River to the vicinity of
the Falls of the Kanawha, a distance of about 90 miles, should be
completed at the earliest day possible, and consequently a large
proportion of the labor and resources at their command have been
directed, during the past year, to that end. Between 5,000 and
6,000 men have been constantly employed upon the work, which
has rapidly progressed toward completion, and it is expected that
this division of the road will be put in operation during the
coming summer. In the meantime the work on the intermediate
section, between the Falls of the Kanawha and White Sulphur
Springs, is all under contract and being carried forward, so as to
be ready as soon as the tunnel at the Big Beud of the Gieenbriar
can be opened.
This tunnel is being rapidly excavated, and the
entire extension will be completed and the road put iu operation
as a continuous
through line from the tide waters of the Chesa¬
peake Bay to the Ohio River, and prepared to receive the exten¬
sive through business which awaits it. within a little more than a
year from this date.
During the past year the completed portion
of the road now in operation from Richmond to the White Sul¬
phur Springs, 227 miles, has been thoroughly improved. About
18 miles of the iron has been replaced with new rails of the best
quality, and important additions to the equipment have been
made in new locomotives, cars, Ac. The earnings of this portion,
as a local road, without
through connections, have been very
satisfactory, reaching nearly $800,000 for the past year. The
certainty of the early completion of the road to the Ohio River
has also stimulated a great activity in preparations for the deveL
opment of the mineral and agricultural resources along its line.

very little over 9e, and the sales mostly at 6c and 8c for good

COTTON.
Friday, P. M., May 19,1871.
By special telegrams received by us to-night from the
Southern ports, we are in possession of the returns showing the
receipts, exports, &c., of cotton for the week ending this evening
May 19. From the figures thus obtained it appears that the
total receipts for the seven days have reached 45,067 bales
against
46,849 bales last week, 51,4.32 bales the previous week, and 56,685
bales three weeks since, making the total
receipts since the first of
September, 1870,3,715,454 bales against 2,719,023 bales for the same
period of 1869-70, showing an increase since September 1 this year
of 996,431 bales.
The details of the receipts for this week (as per
elegraph) and the corresponding week of 1870 are as follows

On
improvement of ^c. chiefly under the
influence of the upward turn at Liverpool. This advance was
continued on Monday, Middling Uplands at the close
being quoted
at 16£ here, and at 74d at
Liverpool. Tuesday, although Liverpool
was quoted at 74 Sf,
prices here gave way ^c, and the next day
there was a further decline of
£c, Middling Uplands closing that
day at 15fc. Thursday, there was no change, but to-day the
quotation returned to 15f, with moderate demand, closing steady.
The offerings during the week have been sufficient to meet the
demand, though there has been no pressure to sell. For future
delivery the movement in prices has in the main corresponded
with the fluctuations in spot cotton. Low
Middling closed to¬
night at 15£c. for May, 15 5-16 for June, 15fc. for July, 15|c. for
August, and 15£c. for September. The total sales of this descrip¬
tion for the week are 84,600 bales,
including 1,000 free on
board.
For immediate
delivery the total sales foot up this
week 19,645 bales,
including 8,230 for export, 6,030 for con¬
sumption, 1,365 for speculation, and 4,020 in transit. Of the above,
41 bales were to arrive. The

slight upward tendency in Flour and
Wheat, but in the coarser stuffs prices have been irregular, the
whole closing unsettled.
Flour has come forward freely by rail, and there is an
unusually
large quantity on the canal, destined for tide-water, but prices have
been ruling for some time below the relative value of
wheat, and
this induced some speculation, which, together with an
improved
demand for Great Britain and the British Provinces, caused an
advance in the low grades of State and Western brands. In the
course of Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday the sales of common
shipping extras alone reached about 30,000 bbls., commencing at
$6@6 20, and closing at $6 30@6 50, with better grades at $6 60@
$6 65. Some of the medium grades experienced a partial advance.
Superfine flours have been in brisk request, and family flours have
done better; so that the whole range of quotations advanced.
Southern flours have remained quiet.
Rye flour dull. Corn Meal,
at some decline, has sold freely, including 1,500 bbls. Southern
and Brandywine at $4 10 a $4 20.
To-day the demand was less
active, but prices ruled very firm.
Wheat has arrived but moderately by rail or by canal, while
thfo
impatience or necessity of shippers has induced them to buy moie
freely, paying daily a slight advance ; No. 2 Spring selling from
$1 54 on Tuesday up to $1 58 at the opening to-day, on the epot-^
and $1 52^@t 54 for June arrivals.
Holders have been favored by
an advance abroad and a
higher gold premium, which have been
offset by an advance to 9d. for freight to Liverpool by steam. At
the close of to-day’s market the tone was less buoyant, under a
partial decline abroad, and increased receipts at Chicago aud Wilwaukee, and leading shippers bid only $1 56 for No. 2 Spring, and
three boat loads sold, for early arrival, at $1 55.
Corn has been dull, and in the past few days prices have declined
4c., closing at 75@76c. for Mixed, and 76@77c. for Yellow Western
at which there is some revival of
export demand.
Rye has
remained without essential change. Bariev quiet, the stock
being
exhausted. Barley Malt closes tinner.
Oats met with a specula¬
tive demand—prime Western sold at 66^2:67 in store, with choice
W'hite Ohio 72c delivered, but the close was very dull. Canada
Peas scarce, and quoted $1 15 in bulk in bond.

About the only change in the market is the
development of an increased
comparatively general demand for the long neglected Japans, with quite*
liberal business consummated. Blacks have been a little slow, but Greens fairly
active, and on all grades full former rates were as a rule obtained Without
difficulty. Taken altogether the market seems to be in a rather more healthy
condition than at the date of our last, and importers speak somewhat hope*
fully of a continuation of the inquiry on a steady level for several weeks.
Jobbers have distributed fair amounts, but mainly in small lots, as consumer* *
and small dealers find it difficult to depart from the old cautious manner of
operating merely to the extent of positive wants. Sales of 6,500 Greens; 1,000
Oolongs; 1,800 Souchongs, and 9,500 Japans, besides about 12,000 pkgs, to
arrive, the particulars of which are not generally made public, but supposed to
be about one-third Oolong and the balance Japans.
The imports this week include 355,972 pounds of Japan Tea, per 44 Bdted
Will,” from Yokohama: 330,027 lbs of do, per41G TRay,” from the tame
port, and 503,579 lbs of Black, per 44 Glanmorganshire,” from FooChow.

COFFEE.
We do not discover that this market has
undergone any very decided wla-
general position since our last report, except that the slight hopes
of an improvement in business previously entertained have not been realized,
and the whole tone is flat and dispiriting. It is not only importers and jobbers
at this point who complain of the dullness, but the same condition ef affair*
appears to prevail throughout (he country, and there is a growing impression
that either the accumulations in the interior were greatly underestimated^ or I
system of caution and economy has greatly reduced the consumption. Goods
certainly appear to be offered cheap enough, and some of them at a great loss

the
invoice has been taken for weeks, except a positive outlet had
already been secured in the way of smaller parcels. The arrivals of Brazils
have not been heavy, but in the absence of a counteracting demand the stock
in first hands has increased, and the assortment is also better. Holders offer
their samples at former rates, and are not indisposed to allow slight favors to
buyers who will operate with freedom, but there is a refusal to grant any
further decided concessions, as recent telegrams from Rio Janeiro still indi.

on cargoes laid down here at the prices now to be obtained.
At the outport*
the movement has not been very heavy, but there is still quite a number of
little invoices selling to interior buyers in direct competition with New York.
Java shows no new features, prices remaining about as before, and a fair
amount of stock going to consumers from second hands. West India descrip¬
tions are doll, the recent purchases having about met the urgent wants of the
trade, and though values are nominally unchanged, there is a tame feeling sud
