cial demand for gold, for the payment of duties, the pur¬
chase of exchange and the liquidation of contracts payable
in gold, probably does no^ exceed $20,000,000 per week;
and yet this amount does not represent one-twentieth part
of the weekly transactions of the Gold Room. One day’s
exchanges at the Gold Exchange Bank this week aggregated
close upon $180,000,000, and the total business of the Bank
for the first fourteen days of this month reaches the surpris¬
ing total of $1,580,000,000. On an average, the whole stock
of gold on the market is turned over about four times every
day. When it is considered that upon the major portion

Farmers, however, are slow to perceive the connection
between the gold premium and the market value of

would be permanent before

large stocks with much tenacity. The
result of this hesitation has been an accumulation of
grain

willing to

immense amount of capital engaged in the transactions of
the Gold Room, the power is always at hand for

The advances made by the Bank are
still, however, at a low point, the total being only £15,728,291, against

Marked’.—fl'he last bank statement showed a reduc¬
tion of $7,50b,000 in loans, the result principally of the heavy
decline iu the value of securities ; while in the deposits tliete was a
decrease of $400,000; and in the legal tender ran increase of
This larg2 gain in legal tenders was the consequence
mainly of the employment of funds upon the market which had
been locked up in connection with the Erie speculations; and it
laid the basis lor a material improvement in the tone of the mar¬
ket. At the beginning of the week, the bank through which the
Erie party have done their business was debtor at the ClearingHouse 87,500,000, and again to day was debtor $2,50 >,0i 0. from
which it appears reasonable to infer that about 810.000,« 00 of the
recently locke 1-up funds had again come into circulation ; adding
to this the amount released last week, it would appear that about
all of the 816,000,000 sai 1 to have been “ locked up” has been
returned upon the market.
•>
The result of this release of currency has been a marked leaction
toward ease, during the week. Perhaps, near 82,000,000 has been
taken in the Sub-Treasury, through sales of gold, and some amounts
have been sent to the South ; but, notwithstanding, there has been
more money on the market than could be employed, and rates at the
close are 5(§}6 percent among the private bankers, and 6@7 per
cent with the banks.
The indisposition of private speculators to
operate, pending the unsettled condition of the stock market causes
an unusually large amount of fluids to re-t in the hands of private
bankers; and hence the difference of 1 per cent between their rates

very irregular under the culmination of the
clique operations in Erie shares. A very large amount of
slioit
contracts matured during the week, and the clique proved
to i>e in a position to compel the sellers to buy most of the stock
required for deliveries from their hands. At the instance of some
oi Whe
parties most largely “ short,” legal proceedings were institu¬
ted before Judge Sutherland against the directors, designed to em¬
barrass their speculative operations ; but the suit proved to have
been anticipated by one before Judge Barnard a day previous,
wInch resulted in ihe appointment of Mr. Jay Go dd receiver of
the Company.
(Full details of the suits are given in our editorial
columns.) Ou Wednesday night, the stock advanced to 58, in
anticipation of large deliveries to be made next day, and yester¬
day an immense amount of “cash” stock was bough*, at prices
raugi g horn 62 in the morning to 43 in the af ernoou ; duriug the
course of the day the differences between stock deliverable yester¬
day and de iverable to day ranged from 8 to 16 per cent. The
losses of a veteran operator in Erie, on “ firsts ” and “ shorts,” are
varh usly estimated bi-tw^ en $l,00%006 and £1,500,000
Some of
the foreign banking firms also are reputed to have lost very heavily,
through sales made here against purchases in the London market.

THE CHRONICLE.
Bxportsof Cotton (bales) from New York since Sept. 1,1868
The Crop.—Our
reports with regard to the crop contain nothing
Picking has progressed so favorably, that the gener¬
ally received estimate of the total yield is, in this market, raised to
about 2,700,’ 00 bales, the figures we gave several weeks since.
There
is an evident inclination, at almost all points, to increase estimates
though at some of the Atlantic ports, where the receipts will show a
decrease, the merchants and planters are rather less sanguine. We
hear of no killing frost as yet in any portion of the South.
Gold, Exchange and Freight.—Gold has fluctuated the past week
between 133£ and 137, and the close yesterday was 134£.
Exchange
closed very firm, with an improvement in rates, caused by the advance
of the rate of discount by the Bank of England, and a further loss of
specie by the Bank of France, together with a be ter demand from im¬
porters. Transactions were done at 109 £gl09^ for prime bankers 60
days, and 109f @l 10 for prime bankers sight. Freights continue stead j
at fa ^d by si earn.

patches from the southern ports contain some matters of interest not

Foreign Dress Goods have been quiet during the past week, and
with the exception of a few makes of black alpacas, mohairs and some
high colors in fancy styles for underskirtiDg, the demand has greatly
slackened off.
The sales at auction have been but slimly attended, and
under spiritless bidding the prices realized have been very low.
Domestic Woolens show no change since our last review, if we
except
a yielding in the
price of such cassimeres as are not fit to carry over.
The new work for the spring trade is coming forward ; but the season
is not as yet sufficiently advanced for the clothiers to enter on
any very
extensive operations.
