and port dues levied upon vessels entering the harbor. Were

that port unless guaranteed full and immediate return cargoes.
The plan proposed would do away with all this, and while the
benefits to the shipping interests of the port would be very great,
the expense of keeping the harbor in good condition would not
be great enough to require any considerable increase in the amount
of the State taxation. The experiment, if made, will be an important one, and its results will be watched with interest but
still more interesting, because affording greater opportunity to
test the practical advantages of abolishing port dues, would be

there is a good supply of produce afloat. A feature of some importance is that a gocd proportion of our importations is of very satisfactory quality. The weather during tbe week has been very wet,
tbe rainfall having been unusually heavy. Farm-work is, there
fore, seriously impeded, and there seems to be very little hope of
autumn sowing being completed under circumstances calculated
to lead us to hope for a favorable result. Even light soils "work"'
badly, and it may easily be imagined, therefore, that on clay and
other stiff soils ploughing is next to an impossibility. Unless a
speedy change takes place, a large acreage of land will have to lay
fallow during the winter, and be cultivated with spring wheat, or

has been an exciting one,
but without any feeling of panic, which, under all the circumstances, might have been feared n ith some reason. On Saturday,
tlie 9th inst., the Directors of the Bank of England had a special
meeting, and raised the discount rate to 7 per cent from 6, at
which it stood previously. As this action was taken on a business
holiday in London, it conveyed the idia of a pretty pevere stringency, or, at least, of a good deal of apprehension, in that
market. On Monday came the news of the Boston fire, and with
the recoil (ction of Chicago fresh in the minds of every dealer in
Wall street, it was not strange ihat stocks and bonds declined
rapidly, and that for a while financial trouble seemed imminent.
A healthier tone was soon recovered, however, and prices took an
upward turn, advancing as quickly as they liad fallen off.
Immediately after the Boston fire, the public was led to suppose,
by Press telegrams frmn Washington, tliat the Secretary of the
Treasury would do something to create ease in the money market
the Assistant Secretary, Mr. Richardson, also came to New York, apparently for the purpose of ascertaining what measures were advisable. But a telegram of Boston merchants to Secretary Boutwel
stated that they did not desire relief to the money market if issuing
new greenbacks wern necessary to give it and at the bonl purchase
here on Wednesdav the offerings amounted to only $2,.')36,150, so
that it is supposed the honorable Secretary concluded that h
assistance was not urgently required, and therefore did not var
his regular schedule. As an extra disbursement from the Treasury had b en confidently expected there was much disappointment,
and rates for money advanced. The rates for call loans have
ranged from 7 per cent, up to 7 gold, and sometimes up to ^ per

Tlie Cold Iflarkct. Gold opened at 114J on Monday morning,
which was the highest price of the we k. The premium has since
fluctuated within a range of about 1 per cent, and was strong today, opening at 118^-, advancing to 113.^, and closing at \\'A%. The
price is strengthened by the acti'ity in money at London, and
the con.-equeiit sliipmiints ot gold from here, and also by the
possibility of anotlier lock-iii) ann the scarcity of cash gold in this
market.
The shipments already made this week amount to
about |2,:?00,00U, and there will probably be nearly $1,000,000
more to-morrow. On pold loans rates have been pa d all the
week for carrying, and to-day were 1, 4, 0, 7 and 5 per cent, and
for borrowing, flat. The Treasury sale of $1,000,000 on Thursday
callid forth bds for $3,095,000.

—NEW SECURITIES ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE.
There has been a favorable opportunity for the purchase
of some good bonds for Investment this week, in consequence
of the depression wliich followed the first intelligence of the
Boston fire. Prices have since recovered, however, to near their
former figures, which, indeed, were not high, if compared with
the prices at which bonds ruled during the first eight months of
this year

— previous to any disturbances in the money market.

It

generally happens that a close money market, continuing for
several mouths together, has the eflfect of " shaking out " a consideiable amount of bonds from the hands of merchants and

foreclosure by Messrs. Samuel H. Kuggles and Allion P. Man,
tiuBtees of the bondholders, in the 1,'nited States Circuit Court in
the St. Paul (Minn). District, and they ask to have a receiver appointed. The first mortgage tjoudg amount to $3,340,000, and the
second mortgage to $1,353,000.
The road is 170.J miles long, extending from La Crescent, Minn.,
(opposite La Crog8e,Wis.,) westward to Winnebago City. Throughout its length, nearly, it runs through a fertile wheat-growing
country, though not yet very thickly eettlcd ; and has in few places
any competition for traffii', its nearest neiglibor being the Winona
& St. Peter, which is at one point about 13 miles distant on the
north, but generally from 30 to iiT) mile*; and on the south the

only line near enough to afTecl its tralllc b<-iug the Milwaukee &
St. Paul, which approaches it on that side at an angle of 45 degrees, on the nortli side being nearly perpendicular. This too, is
the on!y line crossing it. The second mortifage is for $1,353,000,
so that the funded debt is at the rate of $37,500 per mile. There is
also a considerable floating debt. The receipts for the yearendini;
with August, 1871, were something lees than $3,000 per mile. Failure to meet the interest on the bonds was made last April.

The Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati and Indianapolis Railroad
Company have notified the Stock Exchange, under date of November 5, 1873, that the Board of Directors of tliut Company have resolved to issue and fell 10,000 shares ($1,000,000) of the unissued
stoct of the Company for the purpose of increasing the rolling
stock, sidings, and terminal facililies of the road, which are now
entirely inadequate. This will make (he capital stock of the
Company $15,000,000, according to a resolution of the Directors
passed several months since.

bonds rather than borrow on their notes at high rates of interest
This frequently leads to lower prices on some popular bonds, evidently without any change in the actual value or security of such
bonds, and affords the investor a good chance to buy. The present
period seems to show some of these features, and is apparently a
favorable time to purchase certain bonds, if their former prices

Experience has shown, wo think, that this classification will
prove to be as nearly correct, in the long run, as any precise rules
which can be given. In regard to the second class, it is generally
conceded that the safest possible form in which a bond can receive the support of another company, is by a defiaite endorsement
on the bond itself, executed by the proper officers. Xo outside
contract of guaranty, or of permanent lease at a fixed income, fu;.
nishes the bondholder with equally strong and unchangeable
rights.

For comparison of the relative merits of bonds belonging to the
and second classes above named, perhaps the earlier mortgages of the Erie Railway, compared with some of the bonds
guaranteed by the Pennsylvania Kailroad, would furnish a fair
illustration.
All the linaneial diilicullies and discredit of Erie

in the twelfth section of the
constitution the dame Legislature by act,
eeveuth
chapter 700, passed on the 15th of May, authorized the question
of funding this debt to be submitted to a vote of the people at tlie
The last clause of that section of the constitution
last election.
provides that no such law shall be submitted to be voted upon
witliin three mouths after its passage or at any general election when any other law or any bill or amendment to the constitution shall be submitted to be voted for or against.
On the 17th day of May, and two days after the passage of the
said act, chapter 700, the Legislature passed anoiher act in direct
conflict therewith, being chapter 757, authorizing the question of
an amendment to the constitution providing for the continuance
of the Commission of Appeals, in accordance with the concurrent
resolutions passed by two preceding Legislatures, to be submitted
to a vote of the people at said election. The last named act,
having been passed at a subsequent day, took the precedence and
virtually repealed the act authorizing the vote on funding the
debt to be submitted to a vote of the people at said election. I
understand that votes have been cast at the recent election for and
against this funding act, and it is possible there may be a majority
vote in favor of it. If such is the case it is in the opinion of the
undersigned clearly unconstitutional and void. The tax must
therefore be levied and collected in pursuance of the circular
heretofore issued from this Department. Tliis circular is issued
that there may be no misunderstanding or misapprehens'on as to
the necessity of levying, collecting and paying the tax into the
treasury, wlmtever may have been tho vote on the question.
In view of the importance of this question to the credit of the
State and the healthy condition af its finances in case any portion
of the State should omit or refuse to pay this tax, I have informally

and the smaller advance being for the winter months, which have
been comparatively neglected. Tho leading influences at work
increasing the depression early in the week, were enlarged estimates of the crop, the unfavorable financial outlook in Europe,
and on Monday and Tuesday the Boston fire. As, however, the
receipts at our ports during the same time indicated a considerable falling ofl', and the effect of tho Boston fire began to be more
correctly estimated, tho reaction sot in which we have noted above,
resulting in the advanco of both spots and futures. To day. there
was more disposition to attribute the decreased arrivals at the
ports to special circumstances, and consequently the feeling was
less favorable.
The prices for futures last reported were (basis
low middling) 18|c. for November, 18Jc. for December, 18|c. for
January, ISjc. for February, 19c. for Marcli, 19 5-lOc. for April,
19}c. for May, and 1 jjc. for June.
The total sales ol this description for the week are 139,250 bales, including 1,000 tree on board.
For immediate delivery the total sales foot up this week 12,086
bales, including 6,4.02 for export, 5,150 for consumption, 245 for
speculation, and 233 in transit.
Of the above 1,466 bales were
to arrive. The following are the closing quotations to-day

event.

As to cotton manufacturers, we do not conceive that
First.
their consumption for the year will be materially affected. A good
Boston authority writes us that they have not, altogether, lost
more than the profits of the last six months. Very few goods
were held in Boston. The horse disease had caused many to be
sent direct Irom the mills to New York and elsewhere, while the
state of the market, and the fact that among agents and jobbers
this is the period just between seasons made the stock unusually
hear of many cases where the existing insurances in
light.
solvent companies more than covered the goods held. Of course
there are exce|>tions to this favorable view, but wo believe the
al ove represents the general result, and that the manufacturers
will remain in as high credit as before the fire, with the benefit
in some cases of considerable old stock worked off.
do not,
therefore, look for any substantial increase or reduction in the
consumption of cotton as a consequence of the fire.
Second. Neither is there likely to bo any vary material effjct
noticeable for the present in the money market. That there ha?
been a liirge destruction of capital is ot course unquestioned but
tliat will not greatly disturb the rate of interest until rebuilding
has made considerable progress. Activity in the exchanges from
that or any cause (and not the simple blotting out of capital)

million of greenbacks Boston has taken from us during the week
may be followed by further shipments, but this will be but a
temporary withdrawal, speedily returning in due course of the
exchanges.

Third. There are, however, other influences at work, the ten
dency of which is more decided in the way of giving us a closer
moQey market. The crops are still being moved, and this
while our banks are already
necessarily produces activity
pretty well exten led, a threatening difficulty having been merely
bridg'd over last month by the government's temporary issue of
greenbacks, so that bank officers are now inclined to be very conservative in their management. Th-se facts, coming in con
nection with the disturbed state of monetary affairs in Europe,
and the consequent outflow ot gold from New York the past week,
will certainly tend to produce caution.

Wheat, although in very small atock, so much so as to make it
certain that we shall be dependent upon the railroads for supplies
during the period of the suspension of inland navigation, very
materially declined, and yesterday the business was mainly at
$1 35 for No. 3 Chicago Spring and $1 41@|H 44 for No. 2 Chicjgo.

At the reduced prices shippers were disposed to operate more
freely, though encountering an advance in ocean freights, and
local millers have operated fairly. Latterly^the receipts at the
Western markets liave fallen oflT, and a considerable portion of
our own supplies have been ordered to store in preference to sell
ing at current prices. Tvvday there was a decided improvement,
and much activity, mainly for export, the sales aggregating
175,000 bushels, including No. 3 Milwaukee at |1 40, No. 2 Northwest and Milwaukee at $1 47(g$l 50, and white Qcneaee at
$1 80@|1 90.
Corn'was depressed and only moderately active. Tlie stock in

realize without reference to the general phases of the market.
Yesterday, prime mixed Western had receded to 63c. in store and
63Jc. afloat, with yellow at 65c. There have been small receipts
Jersey, which have been sold at 60c. Receipts of
Western markets have fallen ofi materially, prices
there being greatly depressed by high freights to the seaboard
and it is the general opinion that receipts will continue to ba
small until a change takes place in favoi of the grower. It will
be seen that the visible supply was rednced last week more than
IJ million busliels. Today there was some reaction, prime mixed

been inactive during the week under review, and the position
of the market seems to ho rather lees favorable than at the time of our last
report. Jobbers have not shown any eagerness to purchase, but have rather held
olT, their present stocks being ample to meet all running requirements, and tl «
prospects of a stringent money market naturally tending '.o make them indisposed to operate. An auction offering on Thursday met with few buyers, aud
the owners withdrew the bulk of the sale in the absence of a demand likely to
result in remunerative bids. There is a large stock of tea in first hands, the
bulk of the recent arrivals by steamers remaining untouched. Holders have
not been forced to make concessions as yet, and they will be slow to do so,
but the liberal supplies afloat, added to the present stocks will have a depressing effect upon the market unless trade revives speedily. Messrs. Chas. E.
Hill & Co., a prominent firm engaged in this trade, suspended on Wednesday,
with liabilities reaching a pretty large flgure. Their suspension is supposed
to be the result of outside losses, as they were not thought to be heavily interested in teas, but nothing definite has been made public as yet. The firm had
a high standing, and their present embarrassments cause a feelin; of general
regret. The sales are 3,000 half chests Greens, 650 do Japans. aud 600 do

trade has been rather quiet,

owing

partly,

no doubt, to the

generally disturbing influence of the Boston fire. The supplies held by jobbers
have been sufficient to meet the local call and the outlet for invoices and
cargoes has been mainly for theWesfcrn markets. Several cargoes and invoices
of Rio have been disposed of at the outports for Western shipment. The
sales from first hands have been fair in the aggregate and the supply remains

and loadings for the United States are comparatively liglit,
is strong and holders adhere firmly
to previous rates. The market for West India grades has shown but little
activity during the week and stocks remain about as last reported. Maracaibo
has increased from 11,177 bags to 17,363 hags, with a small outlet. The most
activity has been in St. Domingo grades, which have been shipped to Europe
to the extent of 2,469 bags. Java hat sold moderately in mats for consump.

Trade has revived somewhat under more liberal ofierings of refining quail.
stock having been increased by the arrival of several small cargoes of
Cubaa, and considerable amounts of other foreign descriptions, chiefly of
grocery qualities. Refiners have not been very liberal purchasers, in consequence of the free arrivals of new crop domestic Molatses, which are taken
out to supply the current running requirements of the grocery trade. Some
demand is reported for medium quality Porto Rico, and the stock is kept wel)
under control. The supply of English Islands has been increased somewhat
durine the week by arrivals of invoices, but enough has been sold in trade lots
to prevent any accumulation of stock, the figures being slightly under last
week. Old crop domestic is scarce, and the supply has run down to nothing
bat the poorer qualities. There is some call for the better grades, with no
ofierings. New crop is coming forward more freely, and sells at a fract.'on
below the quotations of a week ago, tbe range being 80®87c. We note transactions to the extent of 608 hhds. and 40 tcs. Cuba for refining 30 hhds. Porto

About 12,250,000 worth of fiannels were destroyed, and the mar.
