THE DEBT STATEMENT.
The
May schedule of the public debt has two interesting
features.
First, it gives us another illustration of the finan¬
cial strength of the National Treasury, and secondly, it shows
us a
very satisfactory cash balance in hand. The decrease
which Mr. Boutwell reports in the aggregate of the debt
amounts to no less a sum during the month than $11,697,793.
This exhibits a very gratifying progress, and must tend to
give new strength to our credit both at home and abroad.
We are steadily advancing to such a position that we shall
be able to withdraw our six per cents from the market, and
replace them with bonds at a lower rate of interest. For this
process no new legislation whatever will he needed. When
the financial conditions of the operation are favorable, all the
legal power will be found to have been conferred by existing
acts of Congress.
Hence it is that the agitation that the
Funding bill has caused is as gratuitous and unnecessary as it
is mischievous and
depressing. If that bill should he sum¬
marily killed, its fate would help rather than retard the fund¬
ing of the debt. For when this bill is out of the way, the
prolific cause will have been removed of the uncertainty and
languor which have disturbed the monetary movements and
paralyzed the financial life of the country for many months

is the accumulation of the balance in. the
Treasury. This balance consists of three items—gold, cur¬
rency and bonds.
The gold balance is 115 millions, out
of which we owed on the 1st of May 53 millions for inter¬
est and 34 millions on gold notes.
These 87 millions being
deducted, our balance of gold dwindles down to less than 30

ought to keep on hand at least one quarter of that sum to
provide against the probability of some great catastrophe
which might disturb our gold revenue from customs, and
thus make us unable to pay the interest on our debt. For
we have no such
arrangement to fall back upon in a catas¬
trophe as is possessed by the British government, which has
an account with the Bank of England and
can forestall the
incoming revenue by depositing and drawing against a tem¬
porary issue of certificates of indebtedness or excheqeur bills
as they call them.
Our Treasury can get no temporary bank
accommodation. We must get all our money in before we
spend it, and we have to lock it up in our Treasury as a re¬
serve balance against it is wanted.
Thirty millions of coin
then is, as we said, a sufficiently small amount to be kept
locked up, and forty millions would put the Treasury in a
safer position.
The second item of the Treasury,balance is the currency,
which is about seven millions. At this plethoric period of
the year, the currency balance has sometimes, with advantage
been allowed to accumulate.
For it is well known that our
bank currency Las no redemption machinery, which causes it
to run home when it is not wanted.
Practically, our bank
notes are irredeemable, as they very seldom go back to the
issuing bank, and, when this does occur, the notes are imme¬
diately set afloat again. In the old days of State banking
the notes all came home in the intervals of deadness of busi¬
ness.
The banks expected them home and made provision
our
beforehand to redeem them.
Under the present
National
Currency law, however, every bank note bears the endorse¬
ment of the Government, and passes, consequently, as cur¬
part of this continent from the
Atlantic to the Pacific. As the natural process of redeeming
bank currency does not cause it to contract when business
falls off, the tendency is for it to accumulate in the great
monetary centres.
As a temporary relief, then, it is

certain con¬
sequence is to give a morbid tone to the loan marked
and the usual result is a violent access of the speculative

which no one is responsible, takes the lead. Appointments are for the excessive influence he wields, often secretly, upou the
always made on the “ nomination ” of some Congresmen, or most solemn and momentous acts of the Executive. The case

and controls it.
So in Congress, no man thinks, as formerly, another has been stripped from this office, until now scarcely
of taking independent ground and directly pressing any any patronage and but little power remains. The dignity of
measure.
It is in secret committees that measures are the position has been lowered; its authority sadly diminished;
shaped, policies discussed, and those wonderful specimens of and, worst of all, its responsibility divided and, in a measure,
conglomerate statesmanship contrived, for no part of which destroyed. Before any general reform in the administration
accepted as the joint product of the whole of an impersonal
and irresponsible committee.
Even in the most subordinate
positions in the civil service, it is a rare thing now to find a
man who will directly assume a manly responsibility for any
other than an act of mere routine, and halting timidity
impairs the entire business of Government.
The same disposition is prominent in associations for other

integrity, with the full responsibility Or all its appointments,
must be restored to the officer to whom the Constitution of
the United States gives it, the President. In the States, too,
the appointment at least of the judges and the sheriffs ought
to be at once taken from the ballot box and given to the chief
executive officer. It was when our governors had these
appointments, and when in other respects their powers were
far more extensive than now, that the office was regarded as
worthy object of ambition for the first statesmen in the
land, and that the State Government itself was purest, strong¬

disguised that all this grows out of
tendencies in civilization, which we cannot dis¬
pense with. No President of the United States or governor
of a State, or head of an executive bureau, can possibly form
an
independent judgment on the questions which come before
him. Each of these officers has to decide hourly questions
to which months of study might be given.
Congress cannot
as a whole, study the details of legislation; these must be
worked out in committees, by delegated minds, or not at all.
The vast enterprises which, in transportation and trade, call
for combinations of capital and skill beyond the reach of in¬
dividuals, must be carried on by associations.
But is not the constantly extending application of this
principle of association, and of division of duty, consistent
with a responsibility as direct and personal as any! Our
present system of public and corporate organizations destroys
this responsibility, but might it not be preserved ?
Certainly
there are two great reforms, both loudly called for by the
present state of the country, which would contribute to this
end. The first of these is the restoration, in the nation and

In fact, apart from the general state of morals, there is
no doubt
that the. form and organization of a government
have much to do with the amount of corruption which exists
under it. By simply adopting methods which experience has
proved efficient, a legislature may be made hopelessly degrad
ed, or it may be kept respectable. The influence of these ar¬

| From our own Correspondent, j
London, Saturday, April 23, 1870.
Money lias been in good demand during the week, and tlie
quotations, in spite of the existing abundance, both here and at
Paris, show no symptoms of giving way. A short time back it
was thought
by some that the Bank of England might reduce
their minimum rate to
per cent, but no such opinion is enter¬
tained now, since the demand is at present sufficiently active to
check any downward movement, but at the same time the supply
is large enough to prevent any upward movement. It is not im¬
probable that this will be the characteristic of our market for some
time to come, and possibly until the autumnal demand shall have
set in. Still that the requirements of the community in this respect
are increasing, is becoming very evident.
In connection with finan¬
cial operations, that is to say,with foreign loans, railway loans and
new companies, there is clearly an increased demand for
money,
while trade is absorbing an increased supply of capital, in conse¬
quence of its improved condition, and the satisfactory amount of
legitimate business in progress. There are, of course, the usual
complaints about the badness of trade, but a careful perusal of the
trade circulars lead one to another conclusion. There is certainly a
comparative absence of speculative business; but, on the other
hand, for immediate consumption a full average amount of trade
is now being carried on, These two circumstances arp n&twftlly

Very little alteration has taken place in foreign exchange.
About £400,000 in Australian gold has arrived ihis week, via the
Red Sea, and it is expected that, as there is no export demand, consid¬
erable quantities will be sent into the .Bank next week. The Paris
exchange is still favorable to this country. The silver market is very
fiat.
At the sale of India Council bills at the Bank of England on
Wednesday the rate fell to the extent of 1^ per cent, or to 1 1 Of the
rupee.
Council bills are therefore a cheap means of remittance, and
silver is neglected.
There is, however, a moderately active demand
for Mexican dollars for shipment to China, and these are firm io price.
The following statement shows the present position of the Bank of
England, the Bank rate of discouot, the price of Consols, the average

Considering what
a moderate business has been going on throno-hout the
week, prices remain very steady, and since Tuesday the tone of the market
has become rather firmer. Any
attempt to obtain better prices, however at
once checks business, and
buyers seem quite indifferent about making renewed
offers, unless they can buy on fully cheaper terms than
they did last week.
There still continues a fair,
steady inquiry for both yarn and cloth suitable for
India and China, but the production of such
goods appears to have increased, and
both spinners and manufacturers find it difficult, to
obtain remunerative prices
In other departments of the market the
demand is languid, and totally devoid
of animation. The
country trade houses still buy very sparingly, and have no
confidence to lay in stocks of goods. A little more
business in yarns for Brad¬
ford has been done within the last, few
days, and some hopes are entertained
that a relaxation of duties upon
goods exported to America may take place.
Spinners have bought rather more cotton within the last few
days, but not
above their consumption for the week.
They have numerous contracts on
hand for cotton afloat, but these are not
exactly to be depended upon to cover
their engagements for yarn, as the
cotton frequentlv turns out on arrival to be
unfit for the purpose for which it was

editorial,
says, upon this subject:
“The decision of the Supreme Court,
delivered bv Chief Justice
Chase, upon the right of States to tax railroads to which the United
States has extended aid, and upon which it holds a pledge in the
nature of a mortgage, is a very important one, not only as to the
interests which it affects, but also as to the principles involved. It
fully sustains the point that any corporation created by the Govern¬
as an instrumentality in the transaction of its affairs—such as the
old United States BaDk, for instance —could not be ta*ed by the States,

It holds that

companies—and yet that its property should be responsive to taxation
the same as any other.
In his opinion, the Chief Justice seemed to put great stress upon the
point that the read which was defend?nt in the case was incorporated
by a State,—leaving the inference that a Federal charter would have
involved neyp questions, and possibly different decisions. We confess

readily appreciate how the source of the franchise could
in any manner affect the right of the State to tax a road, or how it
could change the force of the reasoning of the Court.
We can see,
however, how the authority of the United States might easily be
damaged under the decision just made. Nothing could be easier than
fora road which has been largely subsidized by the Federal.Govern¬
ment, and which stands pledged to repay, and to render military
service, to evade both by collusion, through taxation and sale. There
is very little probability that anything of the kind will ever happen,
but the fact that it may happen illustrates the importance of the prin¬
ciple involved.”
The Concord and Northern New Hampshire Roads.—
Concord, N. id., May 6.—Tue Governor and council this ev mug
sanctioned the contract between the Concord and Northern New Hamp¬
shire Railroads, and it is a finality.
The contract provides for the
joint management of the roads and connection-- for five years; the
Managing Agent to be chosen by both Boards of Directors; the
Concord Roar to receive ten per cent on its capital stock, and the sur¬
plus to go to the reduction of the fairs and freight. There are one
thousand two hundred aud eighty-five stockliol ters in the Concord
Railroad at present, aud the recent advance in its stock was brought
about by about fifteen individuals, who sought to get control of the
roai.
Public opinion is in favor of the present arrangement, and, as
far as can be ascertained, it will be acceptable to the mass of sf job¬
holders of hoth roads.

speculation have been placed upon the market
during the week, and while this supply was being distributed
dealers were indifferent about sustaining prices. The amount
coming out of the hands of investors has, however been quite
moderate, as has also the demat d from that source. Rumors that
the Committee of Ways aud Means favor compe ling the banka to
surrender their present bonds deposited against circulation for a
4 per cent bond, to be reported by that Committee, have rather
unsettled the bond market, and caused some postponement of pur¬
chases. There has been a slight check upon the market, growing
out of the Berlin Bourse having cautioned the public against the
amounts held on
purchase of American railroad bonds, especially those not guaran¬
teed by the United States Government.
Under the first vague
rumors of this action, it was supposed that a blow at American
securities indiscriminately was intendeJ, but upon the precise im¬
port of the caution being understood, the effect upon Governments
disappeared. With these exceptions, the general tone of the mar-

changes have naturally weakened the premium, and have induced
selling of gold held for a rise. They do not appear, however,
to have induced any
important sales for a decline, cash gold
having been abandoned, aud the rates for carrying 3£@7 per cent.
The rates of exchange have not favored the
export of specie, aud
the shipments have been quite nominal. The
unexpectedly large
receipts of cotton for the last two weeks, (more than double those
for the co ieaponding period of last
year), have also helped to
weaken thf premium. The
Treasury sells during this month
$4,000,000 of gold, the first sale being made on Wednesday last
when the total amount bid for was
$3,584,000.

they were partially prepared, many of our bondholders demurred to the
rates of interest, urging, that in view of their friendly disposi¬
tion towards the company, and willingness to promote the readjustment
of its debt, they were at least entitled toa higher rate of interest. After
due consideration, this concession was yielded oy your board, and a new
issue of bonds made, of same tenor as the above, bearing an interest of
eight per cent per annum. This change involved some delay, and it
was not until very nearly the
close of our fiscal year that they were
finally executed and ready for delivery. So little progress had been
made in their exchange up to that date that we deemed it best not to
alter our accounts, with reference to them, but on this occasion to pre¬
sent them in their original shape, as shown below.
We may add that,
op to this date, of the 1,640 first preferred bonds, we have issued 1,283,
and of the 644 second preferred oonds, 465, leaving the entire issue of
2,284 or $1,142,000, but 636 bonds or $268,000 on hand.
The following will appear as the indebtedness of the company on

As this stock has served the purpose for which it was originally issued,

into bonds, if so desired by its holders.

THE
CHRONICLE.
Imports of Leading Articles*
The market the past week has been until to-day very
heavy, and
prices have yielded day by day under the continued large receipts
at the ports, assisted by the decline at Liverpool and lower
gold.
The Liverpool depression, however, was merely the result of the
increased movement here, while the decline in gold has been very
slight, but none the less dispiriting, as holders were looking and
hoping for higher gold to help them out. We are now, however,
beginning to see the effect upon holders and consumers of a crop
The
following table,compiled from Custom House returns, show
the foreign importsof certain
leading articles of commerce at this por
for the last week, since Jan. 1,
1870,

slight reaction under the influence of the improvement at Liver¬

for goods for the East being very active and at remunerative
These facts served to give holders renewed confidence
prices.
here, but at the close, when the week’s receipts became known,
there was less firmness.
For forward delivery the movement has
also been towards lower rates, and therecovery to day was very
slight. Sales of this description reach 8,250 bales (all low mid¬
dling or on the basis of low middling), of which 100 bales were
for April at 22$; 1,350 bales for May, 600 at 22, 100 at

850 at 21f, and 100 at 21f; 300 bales for
August, 100 at 21$, 200

September at 21 ; 100 bales for October at 19$ ;

The total sales for immediate delivery this week foot
up 9,082 bales (including 278 bales to arrive), of which 4,712 bales
were taken by spinners, 829 bales on

important, but the healthy, “ even” development of the plant is of
much greater importance—in tact it is the first
requisite, for the
want of which, not even a fine autumn can
compensate. Hence, it is
by no means certain, as yet, that our crop will be in excess of, or
even
equal to that of the
season now
closing.
2. But granting we
good
shall this season raise an additional 500,000 bales, is there not
reason for supposing that India
will raise less ? Her present
crop,
considering the extent of land planted, has been a failure, while
they have had to pay extreme prices for breadstuff's. With, there¬
fore, lower prices for cotton at their planting season, and with the
prospect of still lower rates, in case they plant largely, it would
appear to be reasonable to conclude that they will put much less
136,170 land into cotton than last year.
3. Then, again, as prices fall the
51,135
consumption must increase, and as, stocks of the raw material,
10,968

throughout the world, are not likely to be very large, and the cost
30,755
of production here is high, rates may continue in a measure in the
52,000
hands of our producers, though, of course, to a less
degree than at
’526
present.

These suggestions indicate the uncertainty which must exist as
to the extent of the decline on the next
347,090
crop. Of course we expect
lower rates will rule, but is it likely that so low a
price will be

From the foregoing statement it will be

It may be useful, in connection with the estimates of the next
crop now being made, to suggest one or two facts. 1. The result of
the production the coming season depends far more
largely upon
the cotton opening “ evenly,” than upon the extent of land
planted.
This is especially true with our presnt limited
supply of labor. As
we stated last year (and as the result has
proved) over three mil
lion bales can be picked as easily and
quickly if cotton opens
evenly,” as two million bales if it opens “ scattering.” The
nature and extent of the
picking season is also, of course, highly

the
market,
stocks in store are limited of all
grades. A feature of the
market for the week is the
improvement in the family grades

on
of flour, of which a decided
scarcity has been developed.
Southern flours have shared in the
improvement, but have not
been active. Rye flour also shows some
advance. Cornmeal is more plenty, and
prices unsettled. At to-day’s mar¬

Liverpool caused holders of good
shipping lines of State and Western flours to be very firm

business was limited.
Wheat has arrived freely

been so liberal
assigning only about 75,000 bushels per day,
but with stocks in store
being rapidly reduced, holders have
latterly been able to establish a slight advance in prices. The
finer grades of Reds as well as White
Wheats, have been in
demand for milling. The
shipping demand has been favored
fairly by lower ocean freights. Receipts at the Western markets
though increasing, are still quite moderate, scarcely equaling

rates of the late advance, but have not succeeded in disposing ot a
full

The high prices have alone been sufficient to greatly
curtail the demand, and iu addition to this, ihe supply begins to
accumulate slightly, including a lew parcels from Europe, and with

a
dull tone.
possibility that arrivals from the latter source may increase at
moment, buyers wi 1 not operate, except, through absolute
necessity. The distribution from jobbers hands may be called (air,
but scarcely equal to the aggregate of last week, and a great many
parcels can be found at figures fully as ea^y as purchases could be
made by cargo. At the close the market is quiet, and to sell readily
concessions would be necessary. Java is rather neglected ana some
shading from extreme .figures would be madeiu order to effect quick
sales.
West India styles quiet but steadily held, particularly
Laguayra, of which the stock is very small, and well under control.
Sales, 2,516 bags Rio; 1,000 do. Maracaibo; 500 mats Java, and
800 bags St. Domingo, the latter in bonds, for export.
Imports of the week include cargoes of Rio per “ Fairy ” 4,000 bags,
per “ Moranc/ ” 8 191 bags and perstmr. “ Pereire” from Havre 1,044
bags. Receipts of other sorts embrace 2,113 bags of Laguayra per
“Sea Bird,” 1,861 bags Laguayra per “ Jno. Boulton ” and a few
bags of sundries.
