sent their value in their
present condition. The roads have
been built gradually, the structure produced from the ori¬
ginal capital being a mere skeleton of ties and rails, running
through country of but little value and costing but a nominal
to the
companies. From the vear of their opening, up to
the present time, they have been undergoing
a steady process
of completion, until at last our leading roads, in respect to
solidity of structure, quality of work, and equipment, com¬
pare favorably with the railroads of Europe. Fragile wooden
bridges and trestle viaducts have been in many cases substi¬
tuted by works of masonry ; stations which
originally were
little better than frame barns, have been replaced by commo¬
dious, frequently iandsome and generally durable erections;
store-houses have been enlarged or new ones built on the
larger roads; immense workshops have been erected and
completely furnished; on roads having their termini on the
lakes or the rivers, extended wharfage sccommodation has
been provided ; in not a few instances iron rails have been
replaced by steel, and thousands of miles of road have
received an additional track, while the rolling stock has been
largely increased and improved. This process of completion
has been conducted not by subscriptions of new capital,
the
system very generally adopted on the English roads, but, as
a rule,
by the steady absorption of a certain proportion of the
sura
earnings, which otherwise would have been available for divi¬
dends. The amount required each year for these purposes
has not been large and did not appear to call for new
issues of stock, so long as

naturally tempt them to curtail the privileges and reduce the
fares of the roads to a point which will
bring down the
dividends to what they conceive to be a fair percen tage on
the capital stock. This s~rt of interference is essentially
unjust. The large earnings are not the product of the
original limited capital represented by the stock, but equally
of the large subsequent contributions
paid by the share¬
holders out of the annual earnings, If the stockholders are
to be allowed only a moderate dividend
upon their original
inv estment, then
they are to be deprived of income from the
funds which for twenty or thirty years they have been in¬
vesting in the roads instead ofreceiving them in dividends; in
other words, the public are to be benefitted
by the spoliation
of the stockholders, liailroad
capitalists see themselves to
be imminently exposed to this injustice; and they therefore
deem it prudent, in order to place themselves in a true posi¬
tion before the public and the legislatures, to
bring up the
capital stock of the roads to a point more nearly representing
the amount actually invested by the stockholders. This may
be^ thoughtlessly denounced as u watering” or “inflation;’
but I do not hesitate to put
it before the sober, reflecting
readers of the Cn ronicle as challenging the closest scrutiny
upon the most conservative grounds.

down the premium. There has been little in the
way of external
influences to affect the premium either
way. The Gover nment has
sold
$2,000,000 gold this week, and much interest is felt in the
probabilities of the Secretary continuing his sales at that rate.
Mr. Boutwell, however,
keeps his counsel too closely to admit of
the formation
of
intelligent opiuiou
the matter; nothing
being known beyond the general fact that he will regulate his sales
of gold by his
receipts from custom0. The exports of specie for the
week have been quite
nominal for this period of the year. The
price closes at 139£ against 141 f, our last quotation.

gold market, and the business at the Gold
Board during the week

Lard, which dropped
prime steam on Wednesday, has recovered since
on the favorable
foreign intelligence. The receipts of Swine
are liberal.
Beef of all kinds are
quiet. Butter and Cheese
are
arriving in quantities considerably in excess of previous
years, and prices are drooping.

East India Goods remain

Building Materials have been without further decline of

Hay and

has declined with less

COTTON.
Friday, P. M., May 58, 1869.
By special telegrams received by us to-night from each of
ports we are in possession of the returns show¬
ing the receipts, experts, Ace., of cotton for the week end¬
ing this evening, May 28. From the figures thus obtained
it appears that the total receipts for the seven days have
reached 16,417 bales, (against 18,098 bales last week, 22,201
bales the previous week, and 22,450 bales three weeks since,)
making the aggregate receipts since September I, 1868 up to
this date, 2,240,500 bales (of which 241,000 bales are over¬
land shipments direct to the mills), against 2,291,805 bales (of
which 175,000 bales are overland shipments), for the same
period in 1867, being an excess last season over this season of
51,305 bales. The details of the receipts for this week (as
per telegraph) and the corresponding week of 1868 are as

Stocks; however, are now much reduced, and
holders consequently offer sparingly, especially the better
grades, which aie, as we have reported for some weeks, in
very light supply.
The most of the purchasing through the
week has been on spinners account, prices not favoring any
movement on the part of exporters.
On Saturday last the
market was dull and heavy, but the offerings were light,
holders showing no disposition to make concessions. Advices
by cable did not indicate any change at Liverpool, Middling
Uplands remaining at Ilf j. Monday continued quiet, but
holders still refused to make any concession, although the
Liverpool quotation fell off fd, closing flat. Tuesday the
advices bv cable were still less favorable, the market being dull
with Middling Uplands at ll j@ll^d, but our own market
showed no particular change, although prices were in buyers’
favor, spinners through the day picking up a good many
cheap lots. The next day, Wednesday, gold became weak
and unsettled, closing at 139f, and under the weight of lower
gold, without any further change at Liverpool, prices here
were heavy and lower, Middling Uplands being quoted at
28£@28fc, and most other grades about fc off. But Thurs¬
day there was more activity reported at Liverpool, and at mid¬
day prices were quoted at
advance. Under this stimulus
our own market was more active and quotations recovered
the loss of the previous <?ay, notwithstanding gold during the
day touched 138-3- and closed 139^. To-day, with increased
activity at Liverpool and firmer gold here, our market closes
firm, without, however, any change in quotations. Sales this
week for forward delivery reach only 350 bales Low Mid¬
dling, 100 of which were for July at 27£c, and 100 same on
private terms, and 150 November and December also on pri¬
vate terms.

past week for
Kentucky Leaf and prices better for low grades, but other
Tobaccos are quiet.
Kentucky Leaf has met with a very large demand for
export, with some speculation, and manufacturers have pur¬
chased moderately. The sales for the week foot up about
3,500 hhds, almost all of which were in the past three days,
and prices for low grades are again quoted
higher, making
about 2c from the lowest point since the 1st of April.

Imports of the w eek have not been very large. There have
been no arrivals of tea ships,
only two cargoes of Rio Coffee,
and small receipts of other sorts.
The arrivals of sugar and
molasses are also small, and some
parties expect to see from
this time a considerable decrease in the
imports from Cuba.

-also tending to strengthen
the market in certain branches is the rise in the price of gold
from 130 to 140 in the past two months, which increases the
cost to us of foreign goods and a so strengthens the cotton mar¬

quite heavily, to hold on speculation or as stocks for the

THE
future, and these demands for considerable quantities of goods
at current
prices have not been easily met, agents being
strengthened in their views by the very fact of receiving such
orders. The improvement, however, is
just as we state it,
rather in the general tone of the market than in
any positive
advance of prices. In
foreign goods the reaction in gold since our last has
weakened the market, and importers have not shown much
disposition to press sales of anything that was really first-class.
In this connection it
may not be improper to remark ihat the
action of Secretary Boutwell in
selling two millions of gold a
week is
very acceptable to our leading dry goods importers,
who have at this season
very large duties to pay in coin upon
their importations; indeed, rumor
upon the street at one
time had it that his action was guided
by the advice of some
of these gentlemen. This,
however, is of course mere rumor.

On Wednesday, an
important sale at auction occupied much attention
during the early part of the day. This was in part a peremptory sale
of Lancaster
percale robes, and Lancaster and Bates quilts, by order of
Jordan, Marsh A Co.; held by Townsend, Montant A Co. The at endance was numerous, and the bidding most
spirited, every lot being
rapidly taken, and in some instances an advance was obtained for the
duplicates, of which there were a large number in some styles. The
robes started at $1 80, but fell off to $1
62$, at which price the different
styles and numbers were mainly sold; over 100 cases being disposed
of.
The Lancaster quilts
brought $1 12$ for 9 6 goods; $1 27$ for
9-8; $! 60 for 10-4, and $2 06 for 11-4. The Bates goods (style

red borders, sold for $2 S0@2 31, and the wbitfe borders
$2 30@2 35.
Over 400 cases were
disposed of in the two brands. There were also
embraced in this sale a large line of plain
piques, of a noted importa¬
tion, and some quite pretty and seasonable dress goods. The piques
