estimated nt 8,000 bales
per week, or 41R,030 bales for the 3*ear. and I find that these countries have
received very nearly one-half from England and from ports on the Continent
comprised in my table, and the remaining half direct from the places of production, this remainder not being included in my statement. To determine,
therefore, the ct^sninption of all Europe, there should be added lo my estiis

mate of consumption 208,000 bales.
A year ago I ventured to estimate that spinners in England and on the Continent had laid in heavy stocks of cotton, while at the commencement of the
season the very reverse was the case so that the dilTerence in stock between
the two periods might reach the figure of 500.000 bales, and conscqnentl}' that
an American crop of %% million bales would meet all the necessary requirements for the year. I also added, that a crop of Zyi millions, then the most
probcble estimate, would prove a very satisfactory supply.
At that time these niuppositions were considcreti rather hazardous, and
many of my readers took exception to them. Still the result shows that the
ITniti'd States have produced only 2.975,000 bales, while their consumption has
exceeded my estimate b/ 80,000 bales, and in Europe more spindles have been
in operation and during a greater number of hours, than in 1870-71
but notwithstanding Jill this we close the year with a stock at the ports exceeding the
previous season by 720 000 bales, while the total visible supply shows an excess
of 400,000 bales in part this surprising result is dne to the heavy import of
India cotton and of sundry sorts.
At the present moment (Sept. 30) spinners taken together have probably as
little cotton on hand as they had two years ago. or in other words they hold
no more than is sufticient to supply their wants from day to day.

People have endeavored to prove that there was rot enough American

been particularly urged at the time when Middling Orleans was pushed to the

induced the belief that English consumption was under the necessity of
taking from tin- market 07.000 bales weekly, and the whole of Eurojie 110,000.
I have shown that in reality the deliveries have reached only B0,281 bales in
England and 31.558 bales on the Continent, at the ports included in my tables,

Still the stock of long-stapled cotton at Liverpool is now 362,000 bales, against
318,000 at the end ol September. 1871, and Middling Orleans has declined to
about which figure it has remained up lo the end of September, notwithstanding we had to abandon the idea that the United States held out
promises of an abundant crop.
As alhided to before, it has been said, and is still repeated, that the stock
embraces from S50,0CC to ;i00,000 bales of Bengal and other cottons of a low
grade, which is the case, but I believe it to be a mistake to insist that they
should be deducted from such stock, for even the worst kind of cotton will
at a price, always find a spinner to buy and use it.
OTT-TRUMPLER.
Very respectfully,
P. S.— It will be remembered tliat at Liverpool, on the 81st December, 1871,
the ascert-Tined stock exceeded the estimated one by 85,000 bales. Messrs.
IloIIinehead, Tetley
Co., in their statistical table of 30th September, under
the impression that the error had it? origin in the month of June, have added
these 8.'i,000 bales to the stock of the 30th September, 1871, thus raising it, so
far as the English ports are concerned, from 506 000 to 591,000 bales. The
remaining Liverpool brokers do not all adopt this method of xiroceeding in the
matter, and I am led to think that if really at the end of September, 1871,
85,000 bales of cotton have been found at Liverpool that have not been
counted, it must have been cotton belonging to inland spiurers. Hence I have
left unchanged my figures of 1871.
It is greatly to be desired that there should be a little labor bestowed on the
count of stock at Liverpool at the end of each quarter, and that it should be
more searchingiy done ; errors, which as the matter now stands, are liable to
sura up 25 per cent, are too vexatious indeed.

— The

money market

Considerable excitement has arisen in Wall street from the
stating that the Secretary of the Treasury issued $4,500,000 of new legal tenders in October, a part of
the $44,000,000 withdrawn by Secretary McCuUoch.
Another $1,350,000 of 3 ^er cent certificates are called in for
December 31 proximo.
The market for mercantile j)aper is a little firmer, and 10 to
13 is about the range for first-class endorsed notes.
Cable despatches from London report an easier feeling there
and an increase of fiiO.'i.OOO in the Bank of England bullion. The
Bank of France also shows a gain in specie of 2,000,000 francs.
The last statement of our Associated City Banks showed a
decline in the excess above legal reserve. The liabilities stood at
$330,888,.)00, and the total reserve at $6:3,137,400, being $5,41.5,275
more than 33 per cent of the liabilities, a decrease of $3,612J20<)
from the previous week.
The following statement shows the changes from previous week
and a comparison with 1871 and 1870:

The stock market
ITIlscellaiieoiis Stockii.
has been excited and feverish, and, upon the whole, less buoyant
than last week. The leading stocks are very largely managed
by strong cliques, generally embracing the directors and officers
of the respective companies, and prices move up or down in
accordance with their several operations. There has seldom been
a time wlien the prices of so many prominent stocks in Wall street
were hanging upon the possible action of the different boards of
directors in regard to issuing new stock or bonds. Kew York
Central & Hudson has just authorized a loan of $40,000,000 6 per
cent mortgage; bonds, to retire the old debt (about $14,000,000),
and the balance to lay two additional tracks from New York to
Buffalo New 3eTMy Central is issuing |3,000.000 of convertible
bonds Chicago & Northwestern proposes to issm; $10,000,000 of
common stock or convertible bonds; Pacific Mail has just sold
$2,700,000 of stock, held for a long time by the company; Panama
Railroad, it is reported, will double its capital stock by a scrip
;

;

dividend; Western Union Telegraph has been depressed by the
rumor that the company is selling the whole or a part of the
$11,000,000 stock held by them and rumors have also been afloat
that more Rock Island stock was being sold.
In regard to the issues of Northwest cnmrnon and Rock Island
stocks, it is well known that it has been the favorite policy of the
president, Mr. John F. Tracy, in his management of the last-named
road, to issue stock instiad of bonds, a policy whicli it will
generally be conceded has worked well for the interests of that
company. The higher prices of Northwest common have been
sustained by a partial corner in that stock. To-day the market
wfts depresse;! in the morning, but subsequently recovered, and
was pretty strong at the close.
The following were the highest and lowest prices of the active
list of railroad andmiscellaneousstocks on each day of the last week
eattirday Monday, Tuesday. Wednesd'y ''"hursday, Friday,

The Gold Market.— Gold has been lower, in consequence of
the easier feeling in London, the lower rates of foreign exchange,
and the first of November disbursements. The ab-ence of speculative manipulations is also an important reason for the decline.
Rates on gold loans liavo been tolerably easy during most of the
week until today, when higher rates were made as follows :— for
borrowing, 1 64, 1-32, 2, 3 and 4 per cent to flat and for carrying,
2, 3 and 4 per cent.
It was announced this afternoon that $000,000 specie would be

Foreign Exchange. Rates of exchange are lower and some
prime 60 day sterling bills are offered at 108|, and could probably
be bought lower. Short sight sterling is 109J to 110. The pressure of some cotton Ijills and the greater readiness of bankers to
draw, together with the dullness in business are the chief causes
for lower rates. The easier feeling in London also has its effect.
The nominal rates are as follows :

The Directors have never lost sight of the original aim and
intent of securing a direct line to Montreal. With that in view,
tliey proposed, at the last annual meeting of the stockholders, the
following vote, which was unanimously passed
"That, should the directors deem it expedient, and for the
interest ot this corporation, to assist the Massisquoi and Clyde
Rivers Railroad Company in the construction of their road, to
connect with a railroad now bein? built from West Farnhr.m, P.
Q in the direction of Newport, Vt., in order to secure an advantageous business compact with said road, they are hereby author-

ized to issue the notes of this corporation, to an amount not
exceeding the sum of three hundred and fifty thousand dollars,
payable at the trea.'^urer's office, in the city of Boston, in ten years
from the first day of July, 1871 with coupons attached, bearing
seven per cent, interest, free of United States tax, payable semiannually on the first days of January and July, in each year and
that the directors be authorized to dispose of the above notes, for
the above jiurpose, and no other, on such terms as they may think
for the best interests of this corporation."
A portion of the notes above authorized have been negotiated,
and about |i)0,000 paid over, agreeable to contract, as the work
progressed.
In accordance with the above vote, negotiations have been
carried on with Missisquoi and Clyde River Railroad, which have
resulted in a business contract which is deemed of great importance and benefit lo the Passumpsic Road, in securing a direct and

;

continuous through line to Montreal. The Passumpsic Road
agrees to loan the Missisquoi and Clyde River Roai $350,000, to
enable it to complete the construction of its road from Newport
to Richford, where it connects with the Southeastern Counties
Junction Railway of Canada, which is now in operation from
Richford to Montreal.
By this connection we secure a continuous and direct line from
Boston and New York, over the Passumpsic Road, to Montreal,
equal, to say the least, to any now existing.

and very unsettled market for breadstuffs during the past week.
The prevailiug distemper among
horses has been the leading influence at work, greatly reducing
the demand, and at the same time curtailing supplies, both present and prospective so that, on the whole, receivers and dealers
have hardly known how they stood or what to do. The close,
however, was generally buoyant.
In flour, as receipts are mostly by rail, the effect of a reduction
of the demand has been more apparent in lower prices. Lots in
store have been well held, but current receipts have been offered
from the wharf at reduced prices, to which quotations have ia a
measure conformed. These reduced prices stimulated the expor
demand, and several thousand barrels of extra State were sold at
$6 n03$7, some as high as |7 071, and as low as |6 80. Yesterday there was a better demand from the trade, who had been

GROCERIES.
Fbidat EvsNiHa, Nov. 1, 1872.
jobbing parcels of groceries has prevailed
during the current week, and a fairly active trade would have
been done but for the difficulty experienced in shipping goods,
in consequence of the horse distemper. This has checked operation» from Srat battds to some exleoi, olthouglt jobbers hitve gen
fair

demand

checked line operations iu tea and the sales of chops have not been on a very
liberal scale. The distributive trade is not overstocked with teas and continue to buy from time to time moderate lots to keep their stocks in mnotng
order. There seems to be an indisposition to purchase heavily of any goods not
wanted for immediate distribution until after the election, and holders of
invoices anticipate a liberal movenieut after tliat period, as It Is known that
far less tea has gone into consumption thus far this year than ordinarily,
although in view of the reduced prices the reverse should naturally have been
the case. Holders of Green Teas are ready sellers at the current range of
prices, but do not seem disposed to press their oiferings where buyers aeek
lower rates. There is a full stock of Greens, but the outlook for these descriptions is more favorable than for most other grades. Japans are not held in
amounts greatly in excess of the probable trade rcqaircments, and the price*
current very well suttaiued.
There have been no very heavy arrivals of
Blacks of late, but the stock in the market continues large for the outlet, acd
holders show more readiness to concede on these than on the other gradefl.
There has been some movement in Oolongs from first hands since onr last
report, and the tertus though not made public are said to be about up to the
rates obtained on previous sales. We note sales of 2,,S00 half chests OolongSi
4,000 do Qreeus'*and 500 do Japans.
Imiwrta at New York the past week have included 52,.349 lbs. Black, 903.700
lbs. Green and 08,477 lbs. J»pan, per steamer " Cyphrenes " from Shanghai,
etc.
The receipts indirectly have been 83 pkgs by steamer.

The market

way has been fairly active, with some large ealee
the West. The stocks in second hands had previously

in a jobbing

effected for shipment to
lun down to a very low point, and a ready market was found for the arrivals

of Rio, most of the cargoes offered finding sale before arrival,

and several

being disposed of at the ontporls. The supply of desirable descriptions In
first hands has been entirely cleared out, and the lower grades have been »o
far worked off that at the close we have but 36,247 bags of Rios and Santos,
the sales for the week being 18,115 bags, and arrivals 13,842 bags. The last
Rio telegram shows smaller receipts there, and is generally favorable for oup
market Independent of this, however, there is a very strong tone here, and
the full figures last quoted are maintained, with a better feeling in the lower
qualities and prospects favoring a higher range of values. The West India
grades have been active, and a considerable reduction of stocks of most
descriptions tias been effected. There is still a full supply of Maracaibo, and
the higher range of prices has been shaded a trifle. Sales of Porto Rico have
been closed which reduce the stock to nil. There has been a moderate inquiry
for East India grades, but no very large transactions are reported. The range
of prices is fully maintained, however, aud quotations show no alterations*
Included in the business of the week are 5,500 bags Maracaibo, 6,566 do Porto
Rico, 2,239 bags Laguayra, 515 do Jamaica, and small lots of other grades sold
info consumption. The sales of Rio are 4.20O bags ex "Anna," 5,052 do ex
"Alps," 2,484 ex "Denmark," 2,348 ex "Helvetia," 1,580 ex "The Queen,''
and 1,951 do Santos ex "Andes." From the outports sales are reported oj
3,000 bags at Baltimore ex " May Queen," 2,5C0 ex " Thetis," S,000 ex
" Cricket ;" and at New Orleans 8,500 to arrive per " Jane Goodyear." All
sold within the range of quoted extremes.
Imports at this port for the past week have included 5,584 bags Rio, per
" .\Ips," 4,200 do. do,, per Anna," 4,078 do. Santos, per "Giula;" 3.460 mats
Java, per " Evening Star ;" 1,332 bags Ceylon, per " Concord ;" 3,375 do. Maracaibo, per '• Johann," 3,212 do. do,, per "Gerent." 2,824 do do., per "Marie

fest, and the tone of the market has been a steadily rising one.
quotations are only about xc above those of last week, but the views of
holders may be quoted fully Xc. up, and the light offerings of all grades are
held very strongly. Good refining Cuba is held at 954C., while prime is quoted
at 9Jic., but we have heard of offers of 10c for prime being refused by holders.
The advance is based upon the light stock here and the small afloats for this
market, a basis which gives stability even to the bigbfst rates asked. The

niOliASSES.
The market for boiling grades of molasses has remained extremely quiet
since onr last report, and has failed to develop any new features of interest.
The small ofterings necessarily render sales light, but what little refining
stock there is in the market is held with much firmness. Tlie lateness of the
saason preventB refiners from buying very liberally, bnt it is possible that
More limited operations will result from the present active demand for refined
sugars and the high prices which are realized. The trade in grocery stock is
on tlie limited scale ccnimensnrate with the light wants of the trade at the
moment, purchases being kept down to the lowest possible point in anticipation of tlie early arrival of the new crop. New domestic is arriving in small
amounts, and is disposed of chiefly through the auction houses at about 90
cents. Old crop is pretty well cleared out, and a further reduction of stock is
being effected by small sales from store and at auction. The general tone of
the market is steady, though holdeis arc as usual at this time of the year

somewhat easier

trade, wlio have been thus iar comparatively small purchasers
Trade has received a serious check in the prevalence of the horse
distemper, which has prevented the free delivery of goods for
shipment, and some of the larger jobbing houses were forced to use
oxen on their drays to relieve their packing rooms of the goods
is

call for

accumulating there. The retail trade generally is reported as
fair, the weather being favorable for a good business in nearly all
sections.
From first hands the sales are showing the falling ofiF
peculiar to this period. Agents of domestic fabrics are doing a
fair business in the leading articles, but soles are not heavy
enough to prevent a moderate accumulation of goods, and in
some instances discounts have been widened a trifle. The market
is becoming irregular on all classes of goods, and jobbers begin
to cut prices on fabrics that are likely to act as a bait.
The
finances of the trade are somewhat cramped, but nothing like a
panicky feeling lias as yet been developed, and collections from
most localities in the interior are coming forward with fair
freedom. We annex some details, but the market is bare of
interesting features.

—

Domestic Cotton Goods. The demand for brown sheetings
and shirtings has run chiefly for the heavier makes and coarser
grades, although there has also been a moderate inquiry for the
finer descriptions.
The stock of standards of the leading brands
is well sold up for this time of the year, but are increasing somewhat in consequence of the small outlet. The supply in jobbing
hands Is being reduced by the current sales, and purchases are
only made of such limited amounts as are necessary to keep up
assortments. Prices in standard brands are steady, with a little
weakening in the less staple qualities. Bleached are quiet, and
with some of the higher cost goods accumulating, agents are a
shade easier on prices. The demand for prints progresses steadily
all stan,dard work, with the exception of cocheco, jobbing at IHc,
though Manchesters are still held by agents at 13c. Cloths are
firmer at 7fira8c. for spots and contracts. Colored cottons are
generally quiet, and show no notable changes. Canton flannels
have sold fairly, and with supplies well under control, agents are
holding for full figures.
Domestic Woolen Goods. The market has not improved to
any extent from the sluggish tone noted in previous reviews.
The better grades of cassimeres sell readily, but it is difficalt to
place the poorer qualities even at a liberal concession. Considerable amounts have been cleared out through the auction channels,
but generally at very unsatisfactory prices. Tbe market for
faced goods is firm, and heavy beavers and overcoatings are in
Shawls are selling to a moderate extent, but at
fair request.
irregular prices, in consequence of the low rates realized for the
offerings through the auction houses. Flannels have been more
inquired for and are firmly held.
Foreign Goods. The trade in imported fabrics has been
rather light daring the past week, and sales are only effected
of such small selections as are necessary to keep up jobbers'
assortments. The bulk of their purchases are made at auction,
and the prices ruling on goods not of a strictly staple character
have been very low. Still importers are anxious to close out their
stocks, and offerings at auction are freely made. Jobbers are
placing a fair amount of goods at remunerative rates, the prices
paid by them generally admitting of rather easy figures to retailers, and consequently increasing the consumptive outlet.
We annex a few particulars of leading articles of domestic
manufacture, our prices quoted being those of leading Jobbers
