San Fkancisco as a Free Port.—The proposition to make San Francisco a free port, and to maintain the harbor in (^ood condition at the expense of the State, seems to be meeting with generally favorable acceptance in the interior of that state. The high freights now charged upon sliipments from San Franciaco practical interest for t'je grain growers, since a considerable percentage of the rates ob tained on produce for export are charged to cover the tonnage and port dues levied upon vessels entering the harbor. Were these taxes abolished the rates of transportation would materlalljdecline, and the commerce of the port would be materially in'Ihe chargori at San Francisco have ^always been excesand because of them shipmasters often refuse charters to 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 sive, -285 33' 5:59 J09'795 Tl7'2ri 9o'oob 13 539 Sfl 5.34 37532 54 030 ' . 20 lm.371 creased. 110.561 41 284 5o':«2 422 269.493 l,5«n,SiO have given the subject an immediate ami KAILBOAD EARNINGS IN OCTOBEB.

The week closes, with rather a firmer trade for the better descriptioDB of produce, but no advance can be quoted. Our importations are liberal, and 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 2 6 11 11 6 Thur. d. 1. 896 Liverpool Proviiiont Market.— heel has declined cheese baa advanced 6d. dull and peas however ». d. 800 8 Wed.

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 To day the market was close at 7, 7 gold, and cent, commission.

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%.

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 657 foreci.osi;reh. Thk SouTHEiiN Minnesota Uaii.ko.^d Co.mpant is pued for 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 company defaulted on its interest due a year ago, October, 1871, and the sale will be subject to the lien of the first mortgage (or $2,550,000. NEW STOCK. 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. who have occasion to use money, and who prefer to sell 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 others NEW^ BONDS ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE. fhe following railroad companies have had their securities placed on call at the Stock Exchange, and the annexed statements have been submitted Western Pacific Railroad Company.

Second Class Bonds secured by mortgage on property not so certainly worth more than the bonds, bitt having the absolute guaranty, endorsement, or trafiic guaranty of imcther substantial company or the security furnialied by a permanent lease or operating contract with a responsible company. Third Class Bonds of substantial companies unsecured by mortgage. — ; — 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 could not shake confidence in its first and second mortgages, while the guaranty of so strong a company as the Pennsylvania Railroad will not bring up an inferior bond to the level of a first class first security. was week in this column that the interest on St. Joseph fiist mortgage bonds, due May 1, was not paid November 1.

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.

We are inclined, however, in considering terest or dispo.sition. the future of the market, to give very little pron.inence to this 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) have thus, for instance, always tends to make money tight. been feeling the results of the Chicago disaster more since Sep- We We — ; We tember camo in than daring all the previous months. The 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. Total These figures indicate an increase in cotton in sight to-night of 04,145 bales compared. with the same date of 1871.

The Jobbing : Gate, bush. at all. 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 " " Total if 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. tion.

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.

Not only were all of the commission houses destroyed in the ill-fated city, but only one or two jobbers escaped, and the resumption of business by those who were burned out necessitates considerable activity in the classes in this make up new stocks for jobbing distribution. The majority of the jobbing firms resumed business early in the week in stores located near the burned district, but their supplies of domestics were drawn chiefly from the mills. This is more par of goods required to ticularly the case with cotton fabrics, the stocks of woolens at the mills being generally very small ; and as nothing was saved from the burned commission houses, the supplies for new stocks have had to be drawn from this mirket. The result has been a fairly active trade In seasonable woolen goods, which show a greatly improved tone in consequence. The fire is not likely to aflfect the if the insurance companies probable they will. The stocks finances of the trade very seriously, settle as fully as it now seems burned were generally well covered by insurance, and in the case of cotton goods the losses, if any, will fall principally upon the manufacturing corporations, the goods being held by agents at the risk of the owners. The loss is heavier on the woolen commission houses, but the insurances will probably prevent any serious results. One prominent firm, Messrs. Stanfield, Wentworth & Co., of New York and Boston, suspended on Tuesday, but Their inability to get at it is hoped that they will soon resume. their books left them in the dark as to their precise standing, and as their insurances were known to be light, they deemed suspen- .... 2 20 I ' a African Peanuts liya llXa Filberts, 81C1I.V Barcelona Walnuts' Bordeaux Macaroni, Italian do 13 2 80 lii 46 13 ! do do V n a a Western a Bonthein, (ood.... 6 a * f MM— fil,lm i«td.

The demand for woolens has Fine fairly active, and a strong tone prevails throughout. cassimeres have been advanced about 10 per cent., with a good inquiry, and a similar advance will be made on the lower grades. About 12,250,000 worth of fiannels were destroyed, and the mar. ket has advanced about 5c. per yard on fine whites, and 2i(®3c. on the lower qualities, with an active trade doing. Shawls and other woolen fabrics are also strong and fairly active. The destruction of some 9,000,000 lbs. of wool has advanced the market for the raw material, which has a further strengthening influence on goods. Foreign Goods.— There has been a moderate call from Boston jobbers for fresh supplies of staple and fancy imported goods, but the trade has not assumed as large proportions as it is expected The destruction of imported fabrics to during the coming week. was large, and liberal supplies will necessarily be drawn from this market to restock the jobbing houses which are resuming business. Holders are firmer on some fabrics, woolens especially showing a buoyant tone and improving tendency. been We annex a few particulars of leading articles of domestie manufacture, our prices quoted being those of leading Jobbers Brotrn Sbeetlnss and Sblrtliigs.
