Among the questions

,
which seem at present to attract the
financial men, one of the chief is
whether the existing ease in money will continue. And the
general opinion seems to be that no interruption need be seri¬

The reasons for this opinion are that there is an
increasing
accumulation of idle capital in the financial centres, and that
no sudden contraction of the
currency will be made by the
government, inasmuch as it is an indispensable condition for
the realizing of Mr. McCulloch’s plans of
consolidating the
debt that the money market should be
kept in an easy, tranquil condition. Moreover, the dullness of business at this
season of the year renders it probable that no sudden demand

that one year’s interest is due on them, the public debt is nearly ten
millions greater than it sums up by the Treasury statement; if more

Whatever the amount of interest
actually accrued, that sum, or an approximation to it, ought to be fur¬

In the case of other interest-bearing securi¬

industry; it would surely be a great mistake, an
egregious blunder, if we put a heavier burden on cotton which
is already too much taxed, while we are
relieving the fiscal
pressure and making it lighter every where else. On na¬
tional grounds then, and as an act of justice to our fellowcitizens engaged in the cotton business, we hope the tax will
not be increased as is proposed, until time has been
given for
the trade to resuscitate and to develop itself.
We do not
claim a permanent exemption from heavier taxation.
The
time will come, and perhaps earlier than is in some
quarters
anticipated, when we shall derive a very large revenue from
a
wisely imposed duty on cotton. And this very produc¬
tive tax, when the proper time arrives, may take the
place
of a multitude of galling imposts, which we shall be
glad to
get rid of. To tax cotton too heavily now, would be to put

A bill to
incorporate the Niagara Ship Canal Company had
already passed both Houses of Legislature at Albany, and
was
signed by the Governor on Tuesday of last week. It
empowers the company to construct a canal of sufficient di¬
mensions to carry
shipping from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario ;
reserving the right to the State at a future day of purchas¬
ing and operating it as a part of the canal system. The
Senate, however, attached to the bill the extraordinary proviso,
that the company should not
begin the work till the Erie
Canal shall have been enlarged to a
capacity enabling it to
carry boats of a size capable of holding twenty-five thousand
bushels of corn. The friends of the measure were
obliged

This is an age when rapidity of movement is often of the ut¬

Then, again, it is a violation of the comity existing between
the States and districts of our country, for New York to
interpose barriers to commerce, on the pretext that her rev¬

The policy is unjustifiable as well as
short-sighted. New York cannot prosper except the other

give below our usual monthly review of the imports of foreign
dry goods at New York. The total for the month shows a decrease
over the other men hs of the year, as we stated would be the case in
our reviews for February and March.
Still the total for the mouth is
much larger than the same periods of any other year given below, and
the figures for the four months are very greatly in excess of the previous
years, being $55,706,557 this year, against $15,268,630 for 1865, and
$35,477,140 for 1863. While we are importing so extensively, it is
gratifying to know that our exports are also unusually large. The total
cotton exported from the whole country since September has, as will
be seen in our cotton report in this number of the Chronicle, reached
now a little over 1.250,000 bales, thus giving the United States a credit
abroad of about $200,000,000. The following is the movement of
foreign dry goods at New York for April:,

Miscellaneous Securities.—The week
opened
speculative activity ; apparently a matter of de¬
the part of the speculators for higher prices, intended to
and
lull in the
draw out sellers’
options upon which the market might be ulti¬
mately put up. A partial fall in prices had the result of drawing
out a considerable amount of short sales; but no sooner were

THE CHRONICLE.
these contracts made than
prices immediately strengthened.
Upon
the average, however, prices stand about the same as one week ago.
The low price of Erie stock has a depressing effect upon prices
generally.
It is understood that stock is largely oversold, and there
strong effort on the part of those on the “ short ” interest to
keep the price down. To-day a considerable amount of stock was
thrown upon the market for speculative effect, the result being a
decline from 74^ at the opening of the market to 731 at the close.
Other stocks sympathised with this tendency on Erie, and closed
is
a
lower than at the
opening of business.
prevailing opinion appears to be, that the speculative holders
of stocks cannot afford to unload at present prices, and that a strong
effort will be made to put up prices before the close of the
spring
-campaign. The great ease in the money market favors any opera¬
tions of this character, and it would
appear quite probable that
such will be the policy of the “ long side ” of the street.
The roost important movement has been in
Michigan Southern,
of which a large amount of stock has been thrown
upon the mar¬
ket, putting down the price from 82f a week ago, to 77^
yesterday.
To-day the price opened at 78f, and closes at 78£.
Chicago and Northwestern continues strong, under clique man¬
ipulation, closing at 61£ for preferred, and 29 for the common
stock. The comparatively low prices of some of the minor railroad
stocks has induced a speculation which has brought up the
price 2@
3 per cent; Milwaukee and St. Paul
has advanced about
preferred
5 per cent.

The Gold Market.--Gold
has3been active and fluctuating during the week. On the 30th, in anticipation of the payment of the
May interest on Five-Twenties, the price declined to 12.5$, and on
the morning of the 1st inst. the price opened at 125-J-. It soon be¬
came apparent, however,
that a large amount of “ short ” contracts
were maturing, which
had to’be provided lor by the disbursements
of the Sub-Treasury: and the demand for this
purpose caused an
advance of 1£ before the close of business.
The importers were
also large buyers on account of exchange. The
improved supply
has caused a fall in the rate of interest on gold
loans to about 6
per cent per annum ; but the price has not been materially reduced
by the disbursements of interest,. To day the quotation has ranged

RECEIPTS OP DOMESTIC PRODUCE FOR
of trade has been interrupted the past week by peculiar
The u removals” among active business men have been
unusually numerous. The current season has witnessed the transfer of
two important branches of trade to entirely different quarters of the
city. The wool trade has nearly deserted Pine street for lower Broad¬
way and Beaver street, while there has been a pretty general move¬
ment of the fur trade up town. The other circumstance that has proved
an obstacle to trade i^ the consternation that exists among brokers in
consequence of the law passed by the Legislature of New York at the
recent session respecting the tax to be levied upon their sales. This
tax is regarded as oppressive and ruinous, and the brokers have been
in daily consultation with reference to the measures that can be adopted
avoid its burdens.
The
following is
a
statement of stocks of leading articles of foreign
and domestic merchandise at this market:

depression prevailing at our last re¬
port, but has been without activity.
Breadstuff* have experienced further speculative advance in flour and
wheat, but coarse grains have been rather dull and heavy.
Provisions show no new feature of importance.
The speculative ex¬
citement in Pork has run very high, and the fluctuations in prices un¬
usually sharp, with a somewhat higher range. The operators for a rise
are a Western
clique; and on Wednesday sales of new crop were made
as
high as $29.62$, cash, and $30, buyer June, while the lowest price
yesterday was $28.37^. The stock is large, but the receipts are very
light, and the Western markets relatively higher than this, with a South¬
ern demand for all this
surplus. Lard has been Arm but dull Bacon
has done a little better towards the close, with some revival of
ship¬
ments to Liverpool, stimulated by extreme low freights and the advance
in Exchange. Beef has remained very firm with a light stock, small re
ceipts, and steady demand. Butter is drooping under increasing sup¬
plies, cheese is nearly nominal.
Groceries have been firm, but with a very moderate trade, mainly
owing, no doubt, to the circumstances above detailed.
Naval stores have been more active.
The demand for
has taken
large, and
some
spirits turp¬
improvement in the prices
place.
Tar, also, is rather firmer.
There has been more doing in petroleum, and yet no marked
activity.
Prices have had an upward tendency
through the firmness of holders,
and diminished receipts, but
buyers do not take hold freely.
In oils, we notice a decline in crude whale, and an advance in linseed
oil, with large sales of both. Other oils quiet but firm.
There has been a slight improvement in South American
dry hides
within the past three days, but the trade remains rather
quiet, with a
large stock. Leather has ceased to decline, and closes more active.
Metals have again become dull, and have pretty uniformly
a down¬
ward tendency, although no important
changes are made in quotations.
Tobacco has been quiet; Tallow has been active and advancing ; also
Stearine.
Wool has been in
good demand, and the sales have been large.
There is a partial revival of freights, but at low rates. The ship¬
ments by steamer to
Liverpool to-day were at 8d. per bushel for Corn,
and
fd.
per
lb. for cotton.
Latest.—To-day’s markets show
a
large advance in Flour and
Wheat,and a considerable decline in Corn. Pork recovered the decline
of
yesterday, and the closing sale this afternoon was 1,000 bbls. new
crop at $29 50. Lard was higher at the close. Coffee and Teas were
more
active, but on private terms. Raw Sugars were active and ad
vancing—lair to good refining 10i@l0|c., with sales 1,000 hhds., and
.3,500 boxes. Refined sugars were advanced £c—best crushed 15|c*

Liverpool Cotton Market has been subject to numerous fluctuations dur
ing the week. At the commencement the demand was decidedly active, and
considerable business was transacted, at an average advance in prices of *d to
Id per lb. With continued heavy arrivals, coupled with the announcement of
the suspension of Bamed’s Banking Company, the trade on Wednesday and
Thursday was very heavy, aud the whole of the above improvement in the quo
tations was not only entirely lost, but holders had to submit to a further reduc¬
tion. Yesterday, as compared with Friday week, the quotations showed a re
duction of Id to 2*d per lb, the heaviest fail being in Egyptian qualities. Amer¬
ican cotton has fallen l>i'd to 2d per ib. The aggregate transactions of the week
are tolerably large, being 67,840 bales, viz.: 89*50 bales to the trade, 19,260 for
export, and8,710 bales on speculation. The prices current are now as under:

Liverpool, 21st April.—Since our last there has been a steady consumptive
demand for wheat and flour at a rather improving prices. Indian com has also
been in fair request, partly on Irish account.
Tuesday’s market was well at¬
tended by millers, who seemed disposed to purchase wheat more freely than of
late, and a fair amount of business was done at an improvement of 2d per cental.
Flour also met a more ready sale, and 6d to Is per sack dearer.
Transactions
in Indian corn were more numerous than extensive, and prices were rather
against buyers. At to-day’s market there was but a limited attendance of buy¬
ers, and the trade in wheat and flour was slow at Tuesday's prices. Indian corn
was in moderate request, without change in value.

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.
Friday, P. M., May 4, 1866.
Domestic Goods have been
generally
more
animated during the week
although with a strong downward tendency. The accumulating stocks
and the low price for cotton make holders willing to dispose of goods
at such concessions, from day to day, as the market demands. The
stock of cotton in the hands of manufacturers is now small, and they
are able to replace at a far lower figure.
The decline is not so much
like a panic as it was at one time last week, but is steadily keeping pace
with the general return to lower prices. This is accelerated in some meas¬
ure by the operations of certain leading jobbers, who are continually
placing goods upon their floors at from two to five per cent below what
it is believed they paid for them. The low price of brown goods admits
of some export demand, and there has been about $80,000 exported
during the past week, principally to China.

and cloth has revived, in consequence of
the improvement in the raw material at Liverpool. The aggregate business
transacted, however, is by no means extensive ; nevertheless, prices are slightly
higher than at the close of last week. For yarns the demaud has been limited,
and it is only in certain departments that even moderate transactions are heard
of. The disturbed state of German politics still excites uneasiness and appre¬
hension among the continental buyers, and except the execution of current or¬
ders, which in general are of trifling magnitude, nothing appears to have been
done for Germany, nor for the other markets of the continent. For mule yams
there has been rather more inquiry for the East, leading to some business at
prices which show a decline since Friday’of about Id per lb. V ater twist from

tions are reported for China in some of the better qualities at prices which in
dicate a decline similar to that quoted above on mule. The lower counts of
water twist, although far from being in active request, still maintain their value
with comparative steadiness, and appear to have given way to a less extent than
anything else. Twist and pin crops, from 60’s downwards, whirh at the close
of last week showed extreme heaviness, and were almost unsaleable, have, to

firmness; and although, in the absence of business, prices are diffi¬
slightly steadier. The finer counts of sin¬
gle and two-fold yarns remain tolerably"firm so far as quotations go, but the de¬
is less active, and sellers looking for orders could no longer
mand for them
realize the prices of last week.
A very similar state of affairs prevails in ihe cloth market, and beyond some
improvement in tone, and a sufficiency of business to afford some test of what
prices really are, very little change is observable. Some transactions are re¬
ported (in all cases at very low prices) in printers, shirtings and jacconets, but
instance have the quantities been large. For the heavier classes of goods
the inquiry, although more general, is at prices 'so extremely low that
hardly
any business has resulted, and it is difficult to ascertain the actual value of do¬
in no
