debt, except in the case of
invasion or insurrection, over $250,000 in any one year, and
the credit of the State cannot be loaned under any circum¬
stances to any corporation or individual; neither House has
power to fix its own pay and allowances; the annual
appropriations cannot exceed the estimates which it is made
the duty of the Governor to send in, unless by a vote of twothirds of the members of both Houses; and the Governor is
empowered to remove any public officer of his appointment
when he shall deem it expedient to do so, without any inter¬
ference on the part of the Legislature.
These provisions, and
others of importance, give to the Governor necessary powers
making him the responsible head of the Government, and
place a proper and necessary restraint upon the powers and
prerogatives of the Legislature. That these checks upon the
Legislature are not too stringent, is attested by our own expe¬
rience of partisan and venal legislation at Albany during the
past few years.
With reference to chartered corporations, the
provisions of
the new constitution are strict and
impartial, and in many
respects the recommendations of the Convention are worthy
of imitation by similar
assemblages in other States. No cor¬
poration is to be created by special law, and existing charters
under which no organization has been effected are revoked. A
general law authorizing the creation of corporations with banking powers must be submitted to the people, and “the suspen¬
sion of specie payments
by banking institutions created by the
laws of the State, on their
circulation, is ne' er to be allowed

The

provisions respecting railroads are pub¬
They will be found to be stringent,
and, it is claimed, unfriendly; but, while guaranteeing to
such corporations their
legal rights in all respects, we do not
see that
anything more than a judicious care is exercised that
they may not intrench upon the rights of the people of the
State. Among other
things it is provided that no company
shall consolidate its
stock, property and franchises with those
of any other railroad
corporation owning a parallel or com¬
peting line; and in no case shall any consolidation take place
except upon public notice given for at least sixty days to
stockholders, in f uch manner as may be provided by law.

report states

:

During the week prices have been on the whole steady, but the business
doing has been limited, and the demand weak rather than otherwise. The ac¬

tivity in the Liverpool cotton market has compelled producers to hold out for
prices, but buyers have not responded, and the consequence has been that
only a small business has been done, and that at prices by no means satisfac¬
tory to producers. The scarcity of good cotton continues to operate against
those spinners who arc confined to the better
qualities. At old prices they can
sell readily enough, but these rates are
totally insufficient to compensate for
the advance which is required for the raw material.
Late advices from the
India and China markets do not offer much
encouragement to merchants to go
on shipping unless
they can get some inducement in the shape of low prices.
Since the beginning of the year both spinners and manufacturers have been
kept well under contract, and consequently the consumption has been very
large. This must goon until running engagements are completed, but unless
some alteration in values takes
place, there seems to be a probability that the
production may once more be reduced, and short, time be again resorted to.
The demands of the operatives for an advance in
wages seems likely to pre¬
cipitate this policy. Spinners have bought cotton this week fully up t.o their
consumption, and, as the imports have been comparatively small, the market
has been hardening in price.
This market has responded very slowly, and the
advance which spinners have been
asking to-day has very materially curtailed
business.

opened up, and the cultivation of the potato has been verv
largely extended. Notwithstanding this, however, potatoes have
not become
cheaper. The enormous consumption of the
country
lias prevented any material fall in
prices, while the augmented
supplies have enabled the trade to purchase at about former
prices.
This increased
consumption is evidently due to the more luxurious
habits of the working classes. Of late
years, with the increase of
wages, meat, and with it potatoes, have been much more
largely
sought after by the artisan and working classes, and the result is
that meat, pork, and bacon are,
dear, while the price of potatoes
lias, as stated above, only been kept down by the
rapid increase of
the supply.
The great railway companies, whose lines and
branches extend through the potato districts of the
Midland and
Northern counties of England, and also into
Scotland, have mar.
kets of their own in London, at the
goods station in the metropo¬
lis, and the trade are enabled, therefore, to purchase the
supplies
they require from the trucks in which the produce is
conveyed,
almost from the spot on which it was raised.
This is manifestly a
great advantage, and a great saving of expense both to consumer
and producer.
It is natural also to infer that this rapid growth
and consumption of
potatoes have their influence on the growth
and consumption of wheat, for it is evident that
the greater is the
quantity of potatoes and meat consumed, the smaller will he the
consumption of bread.
Owing to the continuance of dry weather, the trade for wheat

exception being Cape wool, which has throughout sold with

July, 1S69, and agreed to con¬
solidate their respective interests into one
corporation—The Charlotte,
Columbia an ! Augusta Railroad
Company.
An amended charter, with
all necessary
legislation for this p if pose, was obtained from the States
of North Carolina, South Carol.na and
Georgia. According to the
terms of consolidation, the stock of the
Charlotte and South Carolina
Railroad was valued at par, while

Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad
Company all their respective rights and property, upon condition that
it should assume all their
respective liabilities.

immediately
thereafter, with the view of fulfilling
the conditions, authorized the President
and Directors to issue bonds of
this^ company (secured by mortgage) to an amount not
$2,100,000, to be used for the purpose of funding the floating exceeding
debt, and
retiring the bonds heretofore issued by the said two companies, respec¬
tively, and now outstanding and for the purpose of completing the con¬
struction and outfit of the road to
Augusta, and for other purposes.
For the purpose of
avoidmg, iu any reasonable contingency, the ne¬
cessity in future of a second mortgage, the authority was made more
ample as to the amount of bonds than the then existing liabilities of
the company required.
In conformity, however, with the
foregoing resolution, your directors
have caused a
mortgage to be executed, with an authority to issue not
exceeding $2,000,' 00 of first mortgage bonds. These bonds bear seven
per cent interest, payable semi-annually at the
agency of the com¬
pany, in the city of New York, and mature on the 1st of
January, 1895.
They are handsomely engraved and well executed, and are very freely
received in exchange for the two classes of bonds heretofore
issued by
the former respective
companies, for the reasons that they are more
amply secured than either of these bonds, by the value of the property
mortgaged, and the increased business of the road. Ip. like manner tbe
exchange and consolidation of the stock of the late corporations is being
cheerfully and freely made by tbe holders for the stock of this com¬

tlie Railways of the West.—Chicago, May
14, 1870.—More mysterious than the ways of a woman are the ways
of the West to a man brought up on New England hard pan, soil six
Tlie Ways and

deep, and black as muck, roads impassable for eight months in the
when the farmei fain would use them, and roads fair only the
remaining four months, when the farmer can’t use them. The great
way of the West, accordingly, is the railway. Chicago is but one vast
freight and passenger depot. She sends out her iron horses in all
directions to gather tribute to her wealth and enterprise.
A bold,
brave, cheeky city is this Chicago, and yet, with all her enterprise and
push, the city of the future is not Chicago. I expect to live to see a
city not far from where Burl ngtcn, Iowa, is at present situated, far
superior in population and permanent power to Chicago. The currents
of tiade get every year further south.
Frozen lakes five months in
seven must sooner or later kill the rapid growth.
My reasons for so
extraordinary a belief as the one I have projected are the following :
Iowa remains as yet comparatively an unsettled land.
She has a soil
that could sustain 24,600,000 of people, and, were she all under culti¬
vation, would net not far from $800,000,000 annually. There is no
possibility cf a failure of her corn, her stock, or her fruit crop. And
the moment the day is inaugurated that shall open up a railway—not
in the interest of Chicago, as every Iowa line now is, but in the interest
feet

year,




On call loans the rate was

ranged at 3@5

per

cent; the lower

figure, however, is exceptional, the rate on the bulk of transactions
being 4@5 per cent.
Di counts continue quiet and easy. There is very little paper
offeied, and piirne names are eagerly taken at 5|@6 per cent, with
exceptions at both 5 per cent and 7 per cent.
We hear of trans¬
actions in six months paper at 6 per cent.
United States Bonds.—The bond market has been on the
whole, irregular and lower, although decidedly strong at the close
at an advance upon our last quotations.
The large offerings at the
bond purchases of the Treasury produced an effect which has been
continued into this week, but the comparative lightness of the of¬
ferings yesterday (being onlj $3,728,000) produced a stronger feel¬
ing, and for the last two days the market has exhibited a decided
buoyancy. In addition to these causes the firmer tone evinced by
the London'quotations for Five-Twenties, and the rise in exchange,
and the advance in gold from 113f to 115£ have also had a very
direct tendency to strengthen prices. There has been nothing in
the course of legislation at Washington to* materially affect the
bond market. The Committee on Ways and Means have been em¬
ployed exclusively on the Revenue Bill, and according to report
thero is little probability of any action being taken on the funding
bill during the present session, owiDg not only to the predominant
disposition to allow the measure to stand over, but also to the pres¬
sure of other questions to which public opinion or political consid¬
erations attach more importance. Prices close at
advance on
the lowest quotations of the week. The Treasury purchasss this
week amount to $1,000,000.

Stocks have been, to

a large extent, transferred from the
railway
hands of street holders, who now, through small
combinations, are the chief manipulators of the market, and
chiefly
in the direction of
liighei prices. Owing to this position of the
market being understood, there is
naturally a lack ol strength, as it
is understood that the kings are
watching for an opportunity to
break prices, and there is
consequently a disposition to realize upon
small profits.

have settled

down to the absolute require¬
consumption and export; speculation is generally
stagnant, and any little increase of supplies will be sufficient
to cause a decline in prices,
while a marked deficien cy seems
to be needed to cause any
advance, or even to fully sustain
prices; in fact, without some stimulant, the tendency of prices
may be said to be downward.
Cotton has declined
materially. Breadstuff* have ruled
firm owing to the absence of
supplies by canal. Groceries
hare generally done better, with some advance in Rice and
Sugar. Tobacco lias been irregular and drooping.
Hides and Leather have ruled dull, with the
tendency in
favor of buyers, and the business
mostly on private terms,
Tallow has been fairly active for export.
Naval Stores have been dull and
drooping, which may be

liberal, the total being almost double
the total for the same
period last year. There is undoubtedly
much cotton still hack, and our estimate last
week of the amount
to come forward before the first of
September
will, in the end of
the season, be found to have been
correct. In the
exports this week
it will he noticed that the movement
to the Continent is
small, while the shipments to Great Britain continue liberal. very

These figures indicate an increase in the cotton in sight to night
of 155,569 bales compared with the same date of 1869.
Gunny Bags and Cloth.—Bags have sold pretty freely all the
week at firm and advancing prices. At the close to-day the market
is very sensitive, and holders avoid naming a price for any large
lot.
The stock here is now very small, being only 1,900 bales,
against 10,300 bales for the same period last year. Sales during
the week are 500 bales to arrive at 15|c. gold, in bond, and 2,700
bales to arrive at 15£@15£c.; also 250 bales light weights on spot
at 21£c. currency, duty paid.
We quote 425 lbs. at 23@23^c. cash,
currency, duty paid, and 440 lbs. at 24c. cash, currency, duty paid.
Cloth also continues very firm, holders not being anxious to sell,
many of them looking for a further material advance.

generally uniform tone and closing steady. Fine qualities of Green still appear
to be the favorites, and it is
probable that the sales of these could be increased
somewhat were it not for the fact that buyers
persistently demand that prices
be accepted nearly if not quite as low as
upon the common grades. Sales of

increased and neither buyer or seller
appeared to take much more than ordin¬

There has in reality, however, been a strong
effort on the part of each
conflicting interest to force from the other some con
cession, and matters have evidently settled down into a question of endurance
between importers and jobbers. The latter as a rule hold at this
point smaller
stocks probably Ilian for

manage to work along hopeing to wear out the patience of owners of cargoes,

present week has brought about no important changes in
dry goods market, except a further decline in the light trade
noted in our last review.
There are a few buyers in the
city who
represent the State, or “ near-by ” trade, but their purchases are
light. The city retail trade is moderately active, and the move¬
the

ments in this direction

are

of fair remnants of the most seasonable

goods
The general tone of the market has been

quite steady, an;l but
changes have been made in our quotations. The fluctua¬
tions in prices have in no instance been wide, and are caused
rather by the absence of a demand for goods, or the accumulation
of excessive stocks, than by any outsidi influences. In a few in¬
stances some slight advance has been obtained by a
scarcity of the
goods, in the face of a steady demand.
Tie most activity is now noticeable in woolen goods,
especially
few

of domestic manufacture.

In these, the demand from clothiers and

cloth

jobbers for the heavy weights are becoming more animated,
and the present movements are of liberal amounts.

Bleached Sheetings and Shirtings.—Traffic in bleached cottons
continues fair, in comparison with other goods ; but the distribution
of all with the exception of some of the leading makes, is some¬
what of a laborious task.

Woolen Goods.—The movements in
heavy woolens from first
hands have been considerably larger during the present week,
though
the market is hardly so buoyant as might have

paratively easy sale, and the stocks of these gooods are kept sufficiently
light to maintain prices with some firmness. Of the lower grades, the

accumulated stocks in first hands have become somewhat excessive ;

nominal.

reasonably been antici¬
pated. There is an active demand from jobbers for faced goods of heavy
weights, and the leading manufacturers of these goods report their
sales as being unusually large.
There is no inquiry for this style of
goods from the clothing trade, but this branch is taking fair amounts of
plaiu heavy cassimeres and overcoatings, with an occasional lot of
fancy goods. Prices are uncharged, and first hands manifest no dis¬
position to make concessions, inasmuch as the present rates are well
sustained, and the prospects are rather favorable for an advance than

otherwise.

Foreign Goods,—The business of this

a

department is flat and without

than

ordinary interest. S ties of moderate amounts of staple
fabrics are effected to supply the current wants of the
consuming trade,
and Lawns, Grenadines, Japanese Poplins,
and other gray effects, whi h
are in limited
supply, are fairly maintained. The rapid decline in the
volume of business during the last week or ten days has affected values
more

greatly, and the decline in the prices of nearly all imported Dress
fabrics has been unusually large, many worsted fabrics have
experienred
a
falling off of from 15 to 20 per cent in importers and jobbers’ hands.
This is partly due to the fact that
buyers are making their purchases
with extreme caution, and in no case can they be induced
to take larger
quantities of goods than there is visible outlet for. Imported Linens
are
quiet, with but little trade doing, but without important change in
prices.

Prints.—There is a steady trade of moderate magnitude in
progress
in all dress fabrics, of which Prints
enjoy a fair proportion. The move¬
ments are not heavy, however,
and manufacture?s are afforded an op¬
portunity to increase their stocks, or at least to till some of the orders
for goods “ to ariive,” with which many
of the leading mills have been
crowded. The light summer styles of all the favorite makes have been
cleared out of the market, and the present transactions are confined
entirely to medium and dark styles. There have been uo notable
changes
in prices,
and the
list
appears
well
sustained.
