Failing this, however, the Secretary of the Treasury
intends, as is semi-officially announced, to adopt a method for
sending home for redemption by the issuing banks the rapid¬
ly growing accumulations of their surplus outstanding notes.
Some such measures seem to be required in the present
emergency to convince these institutions that, as was well
said by Mr. McCulloch in his last report, “ these notes are
not money, but promises to pay it on demand.”
Those among us, therefore, who are looking for higher
prices for all kinds of commodities as a result of the possible
changes in the price of gold, will do well to bear in mind
that gold at present is in an exceptional position, and its
force is governed by the foreign exchanges and by forces

It is not, indeed,
impossible that under the influence of a wild speculative
mania, some advance may be realized; but if so, there will
be no small danger of a sudden rebound, which may bring
danger to the heedless speculators when they least expect it.
In view of the present political troubles in Europe, and of
the consequent prospective changes in the money markets of
our great cities, all business men will do well to be more
than usually careful! Those who are trading on borrowed
capital, and are venturing beyond their assured means, should

that but for one perturbing cause, we should scarcely have felt
the shock at all, except in cotton, and in a few securities which
are
largely held in Engl^id. The circumstance to which we
refer as having chiefly caused the recent perturbation in the
money market, is the sale by the Government of thirty mil¬
lions of gold in the short space @f ten days.
Some of our
readers may be at a loss to understand how these sales of
gold should produce such derangement. We will try to
explain.
It is well known that under the Sub-Treasury law of 1842
the government requires all payments to be made to
it in gold or in other
legal tender money. Consequently,
the sale of thirty millions of gold would draw into the vaults
of the Treasury forty millions of currency, and would ab¬
sorb this sum suddenly.
But the ordinary business of the
country is done by a much more economical use of currency.
Look, for example, at the Clearing-House settlements of any
given day, and you will find that eighty or ninety millions
of debt are paid oflf by the use of only two or three millions
cf currency.
Thus it appears that as much currency is
needful for the transactions attending the sale of thirty
millions of gold as would suffice to consummate a vastly
greater amount of the ordinary business transactions of the
country.
Moreover, the currency used by the people in
their business does not leave the current of the circulation.

It is then, we repeat, a grati¬

enterprise and achievement. A paper currency not
redeemable in coin is a curse to any country where it pre
vails; but, as we have just seen, the curse is not without
its blessing.
Our paper money is unsettled and unstable
in its value; that is its evil: but our paper money system
is not liable to derangement from foreign demand for specie;
that is its compensating good.
Much has been said about this aspect of our return to
specie payments, and some persons are asking with much
anxiety whether when we do get back to a coin basis our
financial system will be liable to be at any moment shaken
by the exportation of coin as was invariably the case in for¬
mer times.
Two remedies have been proposed. One is
that we should pay all our debts to foreigners and not go in
again and continues actively to pass
from hand to hand.
But in the case of money paid into the
Treasury it is far otherwise. This currency is locked up in
the vaults of the government, and depletes for a time the
current of the circulating medium of the
community. If the
depletion be great a stringency in the loan market super¬
venes till equilibrium is restored.
It is easy, therefore, to
see that
comparatively small government transactions in
gold, involving the sudden payment of greenbacks into the
Treasury, may by .making currency scarce, paralyze the
movements of capital, stir up great temporary derangement
in the money market, and engender wide-spread mischiefs in
those departments of industrial enterprise whose success de_
pends on the easy and equable operation of our financial
machinery.

STATISTICAL INFORMATION—ITS USES AND IMPORTANCE.
The collecting of statistics in relation to the populationand resources, the expenditures and available forces of a

much that would otherwise

proven to be proper and necessary.
Whenever food and the
other necessaries of life have an inordinate
price, out of due

extraordinary mortality of children, demonstrates the exist¬

public credit to be tarnished by even the shadow of re¬
pudiation ; and as to ways and means the State is amply wealthy to
bear such a debt as that which we are now considering. Alabama, in¬
deed, is one of the most productive cotton States of the Union, being
second only to Mississippi, and in 1860 yielded one-fifth part of the
aggregate crop. The State has also great wealth in its live stock, and
produces largely in a variety of ways, including manufactures. Its
lands are fertile and high priced. These considerations presuppose great
.taxable ability, and form the best basis for public credit. The assessed
valuation of property in the State increased in the ten years ending
June 1, 1860, no less than 117 per cent, having been in 1850 $228,204,332, and in 1860 $495,237,078. The State debt, including the interest
now
past due and to accrue to January 1, 1867, will not exceed much
the sum of $4,000,000, requiring about $210,000 for annual interest—
not more than half of one per 1,000 of the assessed valuation of the
property liable to taxation. It must also be borne in mind that Ala¬
bama is a progressive State, and that every year will further divide the
burden, and give increased ability to the people to bear taxation.
Seven hundred and fifty thousand (750,000) dollars a year will not
only cover the whole of the State expenditures, including interest, but
also afford a handsome sum towards the final liquidation and extinc¬
tion of the principal of the States indebtedness.
The State will also have to provide for the payment of its propor¬
tion of the United States direct tax of $20,000,000 under the law of
Aug., 1861, which amounted to $529,313 33. If this sum be raised on
bonds, the debt will be increased in a corresponding amount

This stoppage has created the most intense excitement not
only in
London, where, perhaps it has been almost unparalleled, but throughout
the whole country. It has
necessarily been the signal for a great re¬
vulsion in the Stock
Exchange, and even the best securities, with the
exception of consols, have suffered a heavy fall. Yesterday, it was al¬
most impossible to
give quotations for financial companies’ shares, so
great was in many instances the pressure to sell, while on the other
hand, there
was no
buy. The official lists pub¬
by the Stock Exchange authorities showed that scarcely any
operations had taken place in any department, and that an important
fall in prices had in most cases been the
consequence. At the same

numerous
rumors were current as to

prevailing state of affairs, financially, has already had the effect
of operating prejudically on trade. The markets with which America
is chieflv concerned have suffered considerably. The cotton trade has
been increasingly depressed, aud at the present time, the panic at Liver¬
pool is as great as in London. Failures have been announced in that
fall in
quarter, and there are many undoubtedly which, with the heavy
cotton, with the contraction of credit, and the falling off in the facilities
for obtaining accommodation, must suspend before many days have
elapsed. In the corn trade, however, the effect is not so serious, since
this department of trade has for a considerable length of time been
pretty free from speculation, the transactions of the last two or three

whilst contracts were made at French
ports by Liverpool merchants for the delivery of French flour, to the
extent of about 500,000 sacks. These operations, however, were by no
means remunerative, and as regards French flour, were so unproductive
in
pecuniary point of view, that three firms at Liverpool were com¬
pelled to suspend payment, the loss on the importation being estimated
at 6d per sack.

fact pretty generally admitted
—in the country, attention is naturally directed to foreign countries, in
order to see how our enormous future wants are to be met. The state¬
ment issued by government, if correct, is very important; but very little
reliance can be placed upon it, for it is pretty certain that if the Conti¬
nent possessed the large numbers credited to it, it would be enabled to
supply us annually with more than 200,000 beasts, and 800,000 sheep,
at the enormous prices offered at the various markets in tlie Kingdom.
Supplies from France and Germany continue to arrive, and as the gov¬
ernment inspectors at the outports are actively engaged in preventing
diseased stock of any description from passing, the quality of the cattle
has improved.
At the present time, we are receiving some excellent
beasts from France, which necessarily command remunerative prices.

The Niagara Ship Canal.—The
visit Washington and
Benton, the Auditor of the Canal Department, to
lay before the Committee on Commerce of the Senate the views of the
Board relative to the Niagara Ship Canal.
The Board declare that
the passage of the bill would be inimical to the commercial interests
of this State, without advantage to the Western States; would tend to
forestall and supersede the system of caual improvements and enlarge¬
ments which has distinguished the policy of this State during the last
half century ; would excite the apprehensions of our people that the
general government was assuming a questionable authority in deroga¬
tion of the constitutional rights, of the State, without any immediate
necessity for taking control of the internal improvements within the
limits of our State jurisdiction and sovereignty.”
The United States Navy.—A daily paper publishes the following
statement of the strength of our navy. The present strength of the
navy is 326 vessels, classified as follows:

may be expected from their redemption.
The Treasury is receiv¬

savings institutions are presenting these securities at the SubTreasury for payment. The banks have presented a moderate
amount of Clearing-House certificates, in payment of their checks
drawn on account of gold bought from the Sub Treasury. We
understand that the Treasury has it in contemplation to liquidate
the whole of the Clearing-House certificates at an early day. „

THE CHRONICLE.
Railroad and Miscellaneous Securities.—The Stock Market
reacted severely under the pressure in the
Money Market early in
the week, prices falling 3 to 8 per cent • but subsequently, on loans
being found more easily procurable, than was anticipated, the mar¬
ket took a strong upward turn ; and to-day the railroad list closes
a fraction above the quotations of last
Friday, while the miscella¬
neous list is 1@2$ per cent lower.
The condition of affairs drew
out a large “ short” interest, which has since facilitated the reco¬
very of prices* The market is now more largely oversold than be¬
fore the change in affairs. The prospect of war in
Europe gives
strength to speculation in railroad stocks, it being supposed that
hostilities would produce an enlarged demand for Western produce.
Erie has been severely depressed under the lower quotations at Lon¬
don, and the expectation of the return of stock from abroad. The
price, at one time, touched 65$; but has since reacted to 68£, and

Market.—On
Tuesday morning, the Govern¬
ment suspended its sales of gold, after
having sold, in all, nearly
twenty five millions. The premium immediately rose to 134£ ; on
Wednesday to 138£; yesterday to 139$, and to-day to 141$,
closing at 1391 @ 139-$. This rapid advance produced a very
large “ short” interest, chiefly on three days’ options, which, to-day,
has been the chief element of
strength in the market. The “ short”
heavily, and many of the smaller operators
sellers have lost very
have failed upon their contracts.
The exports continue upon a very
about four fold
extraordinary scale, exceeding
anything previous within an equal period. Steam¬
sailing from this port last Saturday took out $5,280,000. On
Wednesday $1,937,000 was taken by the Boston steamer, and on
the same. day $3,234,000 from this port. The
shipment to-morrow
is likely to reach $6,000,000.

Night, May 25.
The total
aspect of trade is very unsettled. The rise in gold has to some
improved currency prices, but the stringency in the money mar¬
ket and the apprehensions of a general European war, have had a de¬
pressing influence, variable in its extent, but most decided in the gold
walues of imports.
v
Cotton has advanced rapidly, on speculative influences, based on
ireports that indicate a very probable deficiency in the growing crop.
Breadstuff's have recovered nearly all they lost last week, closing un•settled.

Liverpool, May 12th.—The imminence of war on the Continent has at length
begun to affect this market, and the reduced deliveries of Wheat from the
Farmers (63,791 qre. against 84,806 qrs. for the corresponding week last
year),
are probaolv in great measure in
consequence thereof. The improvement in
prices has, however, been greatly checked by the severe financial panic now
raging, w’hich, of necessity restricts speculation within very moderate limits.
At Tuesday’s Market there was a good attendance of buyers, and an active
consumptive demand for Wheat at an improvement of 2d. to 3d. per cental.
Flour, from its relative cheapness, attracted more attention, and some con¬
siderable transactions took
place (partly speculative) at an improvement of Cd.
to Is.
per sack. Indian Corn was in good request, and the market wras soon
cleared of all Mixed Corn
offering at 29s. 6d., and at the close 29s. 9d. to 30s. was
demanded.
Since Tuesday, the
improved tone in the market has been fully maintained,
and a fair amount of business has been passing at rather over the
prices of that
day. Indian Corn has further advanced 3d. to 6d. per qr.—30s. 3d. having been
paid for Mixed.
Further purchases of Winter Wheat and some French Flour are
reported for
shipment to New York.
To-day’s Market opened strong, holders of Wheat and Flour asking a con¬
siderable advance, hut rumors of further serious disasters in
London, and great
apprehensions about the immediate future, restricted business to a moderate
consumptive demand at the full prices of Tuesday. Indian Corn was sold to a
moderate extant at 30s. to 30. 3d. per qr. for Mixed.
THE 1)RY GOODS TRADE.
Friday, P. M., May 26, 1866.
The
Dry Goods Market has been decidedly firmer and more active
during the entire week, and today prices have advanced 10(0)15
per cent., closing firm and excited.
Large quantities of goods
have changed hands in anticipation of higher
prices, and the
stocks of many makes, in agents* hands, are very much reduced, The
season is so late,
however, that there seems no probability of a greater
advance than the relative higher price of cotton demands. The market
is very strong, and feels nothing of the panic abroad as
yet Jobbers
are not, however,
doing a proportionately large business, although there
is a much greater inquiry for goods, and
generally prices are ten to
fifteen per cent higher; the price of most goods was below the cost of
manufacture, and with an active demand must advance. There is some
fear that the present excitement may be taken for a return of better
trade, and that prices will be advanced so rapidly as to check the de-t
mand, and ultimately cause a decline, perhaps greater than any yet
reached.
With an excited aud advancing market prices are
entirely
nominal.
Foreign Goods have not
sympathised {in the firmer feeling to any
considerable extent, it being thought that goods can now be
imported
at still lower figures, from the
panic prevailing. The market is gene¬
rally very quiet. Some choice styles of fancy dress goods are in
demand, while prints and bleached cottons are still lower.
Brown Sheetings and Shirtings have been
active, and advancing
sold out by the agents, and in
some instances sold ahead.
Jobbers do not report so active a market,
most of the goods being bought to replace
stocks, and by speculators in
anticipation of a material advance. Standard sheetings are held at 24
cents by agents, three cent higher than last week, and
very firm. This

Manchester, May 11.—Our own correspondent under this date writes:
MANUFACTURES OF FLAX.
Daring the week business has been conducted on a very limited scale. The
demand for goods for shipment to America and other quarters having recently
fallen off, and the stock of cotton here, together with the supply afloat, being
large, the demand both for yams and goods ruled heary in the extreme at lower
prices, even during the early part of tne week. Later the increased fear of war
on the Continent, and the panic in the money market have seemed
to unsettle
values, and to-day business has been completely suspended, sellers not even
attempting to find buyers, until late in the day, when a few purchases have been
made, a somewhat better feeling having arisen on the announcement of the sus¬
pension of the Bank Charter Act. The announcement of the tailure of a con¬
cern like Overend, Gurney & Co., although it scarcely
enjoyed the reputation
which it once possessed, fell like a thunder clap on the community, and is suffi¬
cient for a time to paralyze commerce and dry up the very sources of credit. It
is impossible to give
quotations at present. The average decline in mule and
water twist, whether in cop, warp, or bundle, appears to be somewhere about
Id per lb. since Friday, but such quotations must be received with caution, be¬
ing
more the result or guess-work than or positive experience.
Doubled
from 100’s downwards, may be considered as unsaleable, and,
although
varns,
the de¬
cline in value is undoubtedly greater than iu singles, no means of
ascertaining
what prices really are can be said to exist, and tne nominal quotations cannot
be relied on. The finer counts of single and two-fold yarns
being still well en¬
gaged, are not so depressed as the lower numbers; but here, too, business is
stopped, and prices tend downwards. The state of the cloth market is not more
encouraging to manufacturers. Those of their number who last
week
accepted
orders at prices anticipatory of what has since
occurred, are not pressing sellers,
but in most cases the reverse holds true, and
any appearance of an ordt r brines
out many eager competitors.
The public sales 01 Colonial wool have '•ommenced heavily. The arrivals amount to
166,000 bales, and prices have fallen Id
to 2d per lb.

Mr. Smith has a house which he desires to insure for
$5,000, the annual premium ou that sum $12 50,
ten years’ premium is $125 ; this sum, deposited with the
Company, makes the insurance perj>etual, with¬
out further payment of any kind.
When the property is sold, or the assured desires to abondon the insurance, he
applies to the
and receives back $118 75 of the $125. If the Company elects to cancel he receives ms whole

The advantages of this method of insuring, in the case of
dwellings, where permanent security is
especially desirable, rendering unnecessary the constant watchfulness now required, in order to prevent a
policy from lapsing, at an
unlucky
moment, cannot fail to be perceived and appreciated here, even
than elsewhere. The immense amount of dwelling property in this
city, forming,
bulk of great estates, must find this system
especially valuable for its permanency and

keeps alive without watching. Insurance by this method is obviously cheaper as well as more secure.
Thus,$5,000 costs,say $1250 per annum, on a first class dwelling; while on,$125 (the amount to be deposited)
the interest at seven per cent, is but $875, If the risk runs in this
way ten years, the Company gets $8 75
per annum for insuring $5,000, and at the end $6 25 more, being five per cent, retained when the deposit
is reclaimed—making the average annual premium
$9 37.
We have no doubt that as fast as this simple and convenient system becomes understood, it will so
commend itself to all insurers of dwellings that few will think of
protecting them on any other plan.

When insurance must be renewed from year to
year, the best memories may sometimes fail, and then
property on which families depend for their sole support may disappear in an hour—once made, insurance
