zens ; the wealth, intelligence and character of the people finds
expression in their institutions and their administration. In
short, the only perfect government ever yet maintained in
great cities has been in those which, for internal affairs,
formed independent commonwealths of their own, and in
which the local laws and authorities,

in reality,

people themselves, and not from the government of some
larger state. Every improvement that is to be made in our
system, then, is likely to be made by moving in this direction ;
by abolishing the leading things of “ State charters,” in so
far as they are not demanded or desired by the citizens, and
by committing the whole work of self-government to the
municipality. This is the only method of reform which has
never yet had a fair trial in our country.

tbered, that if po33ible, she U determined to be as independent as
ha3 eveDced a determination to have the control of her
military po^er a°d organization. Again, Prussia has taken
offenca at Austria for having armed at the commencement of the war,
and having been one of the powers which joined with England in
urging the belligerents to accept an armistice with a view to testing
the opinion of France respectirg the war.
And lastly, Russia desires
jmodification of the treaty of 1856, which, if not complied with,
uught, now that France is so conferable to give material aid to Eng¬
land, lead to trouble in the East, as soon as the winter is over. It
almost seems as if the state of continental politics, instead of becoming
more simple, was becoming more complicated, and much more serious.
Thssignatories, however, to the traety of 1866 may think it opportune
or right to grant what Russia proposes, but it can scarcely be doubted
that the demand is a grave one, and that the opportunity has been
seized for making it when Russia, should she sesort to force, would
hare no one except Turkey herself to opposr her, for I think that the
feeling of this country is not in favor of fighting on this question again.
The successes gained by the French at Orleans, and the recapture of
tb#t city, are also calculated to protract a war which, it was thought
only a few days back, was about to terminate ; and a few successes
such as these might so inspirit the French nation, that the German
forces might find there position nnfenable before the walls of Paris,
fith the increased uncertainty which exists, it cannot be
surprising,
therefore, that trade has resumed the very quiet appearance peculiar
to it last month, and e.s the close t)f the year is not far
distant, we can
scarcely hope for a return of activity this year.

much advantage.
Since the beginning of the week nothing has occurred to
give an impetus to prices, and buyers have had no incentive to make
purchases
which are not imperative, further than the concessions which
producers are
willing to make, hut which are apparently not sufficient so far to induce new
business. The continuance of the war is discouraging,
particularly to the
continental buyers, who bought pretty largely ten days since.
Unfortunately
there is nothing in the attitude of either of the belligerent powers to
encourage
hopes of peace for some time. A settled conviction appears to have fastened
upon this market that the war will now go on for some time longer, and the
hopes which animated the cotton market so strongly last week eave been disipated. Buyers consequently look for lower prices as soon as the present con*
tracts in the hands of producers begin to run out or approach a
termination,

Immigration at New York.—The foliowiug shows the 'move¬

by the Commissioners :
From Sent. 80,1819, to Dec. 31, 1860, the total number of immi¬
grants arriving at this port was 5,062,414, From May 5, 1847, (when
the CommLsion was founded], to Jan. 1,
1870, the total of immigrant
arrivals

4,297,980 ; of which dumber of 1,664,009
land,and 4,186,254 were from Germany.

£116,783
Balance
£137,708
To this sum of £137,708 has to be added the balance carried from
the net revenue account of the last half-year of £1,618 ;
making a total
balance of £ 139,326.
From this, however, has to be deducted the
amount of

postal aua military revenue due for the half-year to the
postal bondholders of £19,722 ; leaving the balance of £119,604.
Comparing this half-year with the corresponding period of 1869
there is an increase of £1,935 in the passenger
receipts, an 1 of £28,011
in the freight receipts,
making a total increase in the gross receipts of
£29,946. The number of passengers carried was 700,384, against
656,860, and the gross freight tonnage conveyed was 612,959, against
520,881, showing an increase ia passeDger traffic of 6.78 per cent., and
in goods traffic of 17.67 per cent.
But the average receipt per pas¬
senger was only 6s. 5d. against 6s. 9d., and per too of goods, only 15s.
against 16s. 6d. These figures explain the reason why the receipts
have not increased in the same proportion with the traffic carried, the
reason for this being found in
the destructive competition which was
carried

on

between the

several lines of railroad from

New York to

Chicago.

The President in his report says:
The net earnings for the year ending

April 30, 1870, as shown by
of the Superintendent, provides for the purchase of 679
tuns of new rails; for the payment of interest on the
outstanding
debts of every description upon which it had to be paid up to the close
of the fiscal year; and leaving a balance of $2,181 04 cue to preferred
stock, which is placed on the books of the company, to the credit of
that account, the sum being too email to make a dividend. It aesumes
the character of a special fund, borrowed from the preferred
stock¬
holder, and it is hoped the net earnings of the comiug year will so add
to it as to enable us by June 1,, 1871, to declare a dividend on this
class of the capital stock.
Upon reference to the condensed general
statement of the condition of the company, which accompanies this
report, it will be seen, comparing it with the statement of last year,
that a large amount of the debt then outstanding in the name of the
cld companies has been arranged:
the report

Adding this amount to the total number of immigrants since May
5,1847, (4,297,980), we fiud that, while the present commission has
been in operation, there have arrived at this
port, down to the 1st of
November, 1870, a grand total of 4,4S7,517 immigrants.

The low

price of Government bonds has led holders for inveetmen

conversion by purchasing of railroad bonds. So many railroads
have been built by bonds alone, without reference to the subscription
lists, that some discredit has been attached to general offerings. Some
of the roads are bonded at $20,000 to $30,000 per mile, and their issue
of stock is of like proportion.
The first mortgage sinking fund bond
of the New Orleans, Mobile and Chattanooga Railroad Company,

option of the holder, are secured by a first mortgage at the rate of

The contract provides that the road from Putnam to
Willimantic, now unfinished, shall be completed on the 1st of May,
1871, instead of the 1st of January, 1871, as specified in the contract
made with Mr. Brooks, one of the receivers; that it shall be finished
for $300,000 instead of $400,000 in that contract, or $460,000 in a pre¬

between Putnam and Willimantic, and the income of the road in Con¬

Munson at 80 per cent, and the bondholders to be allowed to take them

The Court assented to the agreement of counsel, and the
case was postponed until Nov. 29, 1870.
Western and Atlantic Railroad*—This railroad, extending
from Atlanta, Ga., north by west 138 miles to Chattanooga, Tenn., is
the property of the State of Georgia, and has been operated by it
hitherto. But the Legislature of that State has pasted an act author¬
izing the Governor to lease the road for twenty years, for a monthly
rental of not less than $25,000, to not less than eeven lessees, worth
together not less than $500,000, a majority in the number and in the
interest to be residents of Georgia. These lessees must give bonds to
secure tne payment of the rental for $8,000,000, of which security
$5,000,000 must be in Georgia, and the remainder, if out of the State,
must be real estate or railroad property.
No railroad or express com¬
pany or combination of them may become the lessees.
The rates for
local freights are limited to the average rates charged on the Macon
and Western, the Georgia Railroad, and the Central Railroad of Geor¬
gia. No discrimination can be made in favor of any other railroad or
any person. This property is said to be worth about $5,000,000.
For the last year reported the gross earnings were $1,138,300, and the
operating expenses 58.58 per cent, or $688,180, leaving a9 net earnings
$450,120; but $134,000 of this were expended for improvements. It,

The

hope that the complications between Russia
and England
might be peacefully settled has kept the foreign
markets more buoyant, and the home market has responded to
this improved
feeling, prices at the close being about \ per cent
above our last figures. The low prices to which bonds have lately
declined have rendered them more acceptable to a class of home
investors, who seem to have determined that current quotations
about represent the bottom
prices, except under some panicky
emergency. At current prices, sixty-seven bonds cost only 107
ex-interest, which, taking the average of the last eighteen months,
18 an
exceptionally low price, and places Governments in a favorable
position for competing with other securities. It appears to be
mainly from this fact that we must account for a slightly improved
demand, and for the further fact that the Treasury purchase of
today drew out offers of only $2,983,000, the lowest total offered
for many weeks
past. The rise in prices is the more noticeable
from the fact that
gold has declined during the week about 1
percent.

It is to be
remarked, however, in this connection, that the im¬
portant decline in

five-twenty bonds has been chiefly brought

about by the
anticipation on the part of holders that they may
possibly be paid off in a short time, with the proceeds of a new
toan bearing a lower rate of
interest, and it is this element of

the whole, a decidedly firmer tone and a slight
speculative spirit. Erie, so long neglected and dis¬
carded, has suddenly become the leading speculative stock, an4
operators who have feared to touch it have become eager buyers.
Various reasons are assigned for this change of tone, the principal1
being that an amicable settlement of the competition with other
companies has been arrived at, and that some of the present
directors will soon give place to parties in the Vanderbilt interest.
Very little appears to be certainly known as to the cause of the
activity, but there seems to he good reasons for supposing that
some arrangements are pending between the great trunk roads,
which will materially benefit the finances of each, and New York
Central and Lake Shore have been firmer from the same cause.
Erie at one time to-day soid at 25f, but subsequently fell off to
24&$25. It is hardly too much to assume that the transactions
have been confined principally to parties who are largely interested
and who are desirous of creating a market upon which to sell out
their stock. Lake Shore closed at f advance and New York Cen¬
tral at H rise on the lowest prices of last Friday. Reports from

Our market the past week has continued to follow the
and fluctuations of Liverpool, where the

daily tonequestion of immediate?
supply seems to be the ruling one. The stock of American at
Liverpool has fallen even below last Friday’s figures (the arrivals
continuing very small), so that holders have been able to obtain
full prices for spot or near delivery cotton. Early in the
week
some improvement in the rates was established and our own
quo¬

tations consequently advanced, middling uplands
closing on Wed
nesday at 16£c. Thursday was a holiday (Thanksgiving day), but
to-day, with the more warlike news from England and Russia, and
the quotations off at Liverpool, our own market was
heavy, and so
closed, with a portion of the advance lost. The official quotation
to-night, however, showed fc. improvement on last Friday. For
forward delivery the fluctuations have been less,
except for the
present month, and the close was about the same as last week, ex¬
cept for November, which was about -|c. higher, November (low
middling) closing at 15|c., December at 15|c., January 15^c., and
February and March at 15fc. The total sales of this description
for the week (including 4,100 bales free on
board) being 31,900
bales.
For immediate delivery the total sales foot
up this week
28,540 bales, including 2,490 bales to arrive, of which 4,775 bales
were taken by spinners,
778 bales on speculation, 20,012 bales for
export, and 2,975 bales in transit. The following are the closing

♦Our tvlcgram from Columbus
from our inte.-c mail returns.

These totals show that the interior stocks have increased during
the week 11,314 bales (being now 10,112 bales more than for the

period of last year), while the aggregate receipts are 27,156
and the shipments 16,267 bales more than for the
corresponding period of 1869. The prominent feature in the above
is the continued large receipts at Memphis, reaching this week
24,250 bales against 7,593 bales for the corresponding week last
year, or an increase of 16,657 bales.

rally been somewhat reduced since our last report, though in one
or two instances a fair amount of animation
was shown, and
values almost without exception are sustained. The remaining
parcels of duty paid goods are offered with much freedom, and on
easy terms, but the stock in bond attracts the most attention, occa¬
sionally to the extent of some speculative movement, and prices
rule firm and uniform. Still buyers are rather cautious in all their
movements, and the hand to mouth policy has evidently become
too deeply seated during the past season to be easily eradicated
now, especially as it is thought the changes in duties will, not.
withstanding all the preparation made, be apt to cause a few vio¬
lent changes.
The “street” has been filled with rumors of the
seizure of the books of one of the oldest and strongest grocery
houses, owing to alleged frauds upon the customs by making
false returns of the weight of coffee. Nothing positive is known
in the matter, though of late it was reported a compromise had

SUGAR.

Sugars have continued to sell in a very slow uncertain manner, but still
the aggregate business more than balances the receipts, and the accumulation
is still falling off, adding further to the confidence of importers and holders,
and keeping prices fall up to the former level. It seems to be now generally
understood that no important concessions will be made on the remaining sup¬
plies, and whatever is unsold will not be forced off, but carried over into the
new year to take the chances under the new duty.
The supply on the market
is neither large or well assorted, but still buyers find it possible to make the
necessary selections without a very extended search, particularly of Moscovado
grades, Clayed Sugars haying rather the strongest tone. The leading refiners ^re
still working to some extent, but on reduced time, and as soon, as present orders
are filled machinery will be stopped, and the annual clearing up take place. Of

continued

New Greens have been offered

little more freedom, and found quite a ready sale. Oolongs were in¬
after, and Japans found comparatively liberal buyers. The movements
quired
were, in the main, with the regular jobbing trade for re-distributien, the pur¬
chases being made in view of the fact that a great many goods bought to carry
over into the new year have been sold out and must be at once replaced to keep
np assortments. Some two or three speculative movements are reported, but
nothing of any magnitude. Quotations remain as before, but there is, if anything, greater firmness on choice Blacks. Sales of 4,816 pkgs. Green, 2,100

improvement whatever in the position of the market for foreign
Refiners have almost entirely ceased operations for the season,
and if they can be induced to enter the market at all it is only, as noted last
week, to secure unusually cheap parcels, which are almost certain to yield a
profit if held over and worked up when the production is again resinned. Dis¬
tilling grades, certainly dull enough during the entire autumn have become
more so if possible since the raids on the Illicit stills in this vicinity, and no one
ventures to predict what disposition will finally be made of this class of goods.
Fine grocery qualities have after a fashion sold fairly, but only in a jobbing
way, and prices though without decided change lack strength, while the cornman sorts are entirely nominal, and quotations of little use.
Domestic has
been quiet or active according to the supply at hand per steamer, hut re¬
ceivers throughout have proved quick and willing sellers, and values show
gome shrinkage.
There is every prospect of a most liberal supply, and thus
far the quality has been unusually fine and uniform. The transactions during
the week embrace 75 hhds. Cuba Muscovado, 25 hhds. Cuba Clayed, 40 hhde.

found a few friends, but the medium stock is still neglected. Importers and
holders generally remain firm for the best stock and reasonably steady on all
qualities, feeling encouraged by the fact that the shjjply on the seaboard is still

There is a better supply of West India fruits in the market which have sold

of activity in the market during
the week, and the distribution of all seasonable goods, though
confined to small lots, aggregates an amount nearly equal to that
of the previous week. The annual Thanksgiving Day occurring
in the middle of the week interferred with trade somewhat in
keeping buyers from the market, and in view of this fact the
result is very satisfactory. The demand from jobbers in the inte¬
rior has been very good, and the sales, especially of prints, show
considerable improvement. The consumptive demand in all sec¬
tions is said to be good, with decidedly more encouraging pros¬
pects for a good trade during the remainder of the season than
was reported a few weeks ago.
The manufacture of goods,
especially for the Fall and Winter trade, has about ceased, and
stocks throughout the market are very much reduced. We hear
complaints again, from both cotton and woolen commission houses,
of a scarcity of goods, in consequence of the curtailed production
which is still necessitated by the scarcity of water in the manufac¬
