The

reasonable doubt that the 1,721 miles between Omaha

provided for the construction of this Great National Work are ample. The United States
grants its Six Per Cent Bonds at the rate of from $16,000 to $48,000 per mile, for which it takes a second lien
as security, and receives payment to a large, if not to the full, extent ©f Its claim In services.
These Bonds
are issued as each twenty-mile section is finished, and after it has been examined by United States Commis¬
sioners and pronounced to be in all respects a first-class road, thoroughly supplied with depots, repair-shops

The United States also makes

and deliver the Bonds to the Company only as the work progresses, so that they always represent an actual

The authorized capital of the Company

Belmont, 192 miles, will be opened for business early

next year, so that there will be a continuous line from
St. Louis to Mobile, New Orleans and other Southern
cities. A very large traffic is anticipated. The old
part of the road (91 miles) already earns enough to se¬
cure ah the interest on the whole mortgage debt, and
the extension completed will vastly increase the earn¬
ings. The proceeds of these bonds going into the ex¬
tension or the road adds to the security, and a pro¬
jected branch s mthwestwardly from Pilot Knob for
which a cash subsidy of $15,000 per mile is granted by

the State as a free gift to the compa ny, will add very
much to the value of their property.

THE
Contracts for the construction of 914 miles west from Omaha, comprising much of the most difficult
mountain work have been made with responsible parties at the average rate of sixty-eight thousand and

fifty-eight dollars ($68,058) per mile. This price includes all necessary car-shops, depots, stations, and all other
incidental buildings, and also locomotives, passenger, baggage and freight cars, and other requisite rollingstook, to an amount that shall not be less than $7,500 per mile.

It will be noticed that the Union Pacific Railroad is, in fact, A GOVERNMENT WORK, built under the

rtainly no other is based upon a larger or more valuable property.

The Union Pacific Bonds are for $1,000 each, and have coupons attached. They have thirty years to run,

are more

curious than useful; but to our

merchants,

and business men, shrinking under
panic, there are few topics more eagerly
discussed, and none more powerful in controlling future
engagements, or in regulating those already existing.
An eloquent French writer has compared the industrial
effects of changes in the money market to the rise of an
inundation in a fertile Swiss valley. As the water rises it
drowns first the rich lowlands, with their teeming fruitful¬
ness, next the higher levels, and last of all the more unaccessible sterile parts of the landscape; but wherever the flood
pours its destructive currents it carries desolation and dis¬
may, sweeping off with resistless violence the accumulated
wealth of a generation. The eager interest with which the
Swiss peasant watches the water guage for a rise or fall, which
means ruin to him or safety, is compared by this writer to
the feverish earnestness of the financial public to note the
ups and downs of the rate of interest, with the resulting
monetary trouble or monetary ease which will incite to new
bankers, manufacturers,

the smart of the late

enterprises or pronounce the doom of old ones.

but this principle may be safely relied on, that, when the
banks have plenty to lend, every other lender is similarly
well provided.
. .
Let us turn next to the currency. Is there any trouble to
be apprehended there ? And our first thought fixes on the
Treasury. April is gone with the demands for currency for
the country, and May is come with its return flow of money.
Currency is coming from all points to this center, If any
trouble comes from sudden scarcity of currency, there is no
opening for such trouble except through the Treasury and by

when this recuperative movement is fairly inaugurated we

remarkable progress in the develop¬
system of railroads. In the space ot lour years
from December 31, 1862, to December 31,1866,.the length of rail¬
road iu operation increased from 616 to 1,060 miles, or 72 08 per
cent; and the gross earnings, which in 1862 amounted to SI ,109,346,
were in 1866 $4,118,066, showing an increase of $3,008,720, or
271.22 per cent. The gros3 earnings per mile of road in the mean¬
while were more than duplicated, having been in 1862 $l,80l, end
[n 1866 $3,885, an increase, of $2,084, or 115.77 per cent. flhe
State tax throughout the term under review was at the rate of one
mill on the dollar, and hence shows the same rate of increase (271. -2
p. c) as the gross earnings themselves.
One half of this tax goes
into the General Fund for State purpose, and the other half is dis¬
tributed to the counties through which the roads pass.
During the year 1867 there was great activity in the construction
of railroads in this State.
The Burlington and Missouri was
extended to Chariton, 30 miles; the Cedar Rapids and Missouri
to Council Bluffs, 25 miles; and the Mississippi and Missouri to
Des Moines, 22 miles; and in the extreme west of the State there
were opened the Council Bluffs and St. Joseph Railroad, 35 miles,
and the Sioux City and Pacific Railroad, 70 miles. Total new
road in 1867,182 miles.

Cotton opened to-day steadier, bnt later was dull and heavy.
There is nothing doing in cotton to arrive, although heavy lots con¬
tinue coming in. The total stock at sea, bound to Liverpool, is esti¬
mated at 813,000 bales, nearly all from India ; only 96,000 from the
United States. The Brokers' Circular, published to-day, contains the
following statistics: The total sales up to last night were only 48,000
bales of all sorts: Speculators took 6,000, and 7,000 were bought for
export. The arrivals have been unusually heavy, particularly from
India, which fact accounts in a great measure for the dulness in the
market. According to the best estimates the total stock of cotton in
port, and on shipboard, is 642,000 bales, whereof considerably more
than half (342,000) are American.

The Consol market has been firm, and the tendency of prices has been
upward. The budget being more favorable than had been
and there being the prospect of a speedy termination of the Abyssinian
war, the tone of business has been good, and a rise of £ has been estab¬
lished in the quotations. To day the market has received a further
favorable influence by the rumor that a reduction in the Prussian army

extremely dull during the early part of the week, owing to
the disinclination of operators to either buy or sell in the present
cl qued condition of the market.
During the last two days there
has been more movement, growing out of changes in the condition
of the combination controlling New York Central and Erie.
It is
reported that the New York Central Directors have decided upon
making an early dividend of 30 per cent in stock and 2 per cent
cash ; and to day intimations have been given out that a combina"
tion has been made for disputing in the courts the right of the com¬
pany to bsue new stock. The first of these rumors put up the
price to 129|-. and the second forced it back to 128£@128£ Erie
has been sold freely during the last two days, the- stock being sup¬
posed to have come from an ex-member of the Vanderbilt combi¬
nation. The result has been a decline in the price from 71 ^ 1° 68£.
Fort Wayne has showed considerable firmness, in consequence of a
large increase in the earnings of the roads, and closes 3§ above onr
last quotation.
Within the last two or three days there has been
quite an active movement in Rock Island, in consequence of an
effort made for securing the appointment of a receiver of the
funds of the company.

sluggish and with no operations
of any moment to note ; of Rio only 2*70 bags have been sold, with 700
bags of Java and 800 do of Ceylon.

Business has been

steady and legitimate, with no fluctuation in
prices, and the stock disposed of has gone to supply the actual wants
of the trade for consumption *
There has been

active demand

throughout the week for most
descriptions, and sales have been up to the usual amount. In laisins
and, at the close of the week, in Turkish prunes also, great activity
prevailed; the latter was held at advanced rates, but with slight con¬
cessions on the part of holders. Sales have been freely made. Quota¬
tions are unchanged, except in the item of figs.
In green fruit, 8,729 boxes of Sicily oranges were sold at $2 5C@

buy feven while refined grades in no way sympathised with the pre¬
vailing rates for raw sugars. In grocery grades only the choicest have
met with much demand, and for these a corresponding advance has not
