replace them, at par, with four per cents. That, in the case
of a country with the vast resources of the United States, all
this ought to be, and that abundant reasons can be given
why it should be, there is no controversy whatever. But of
what profit is all this argument when to-day in London FiveTwenties are selling at 84 ?
Can we persuade the foreign

they stand ready to sell out their six per cents below par?
This is the point which Mr. Bowles seems to overlook; and
still it is the only point which is really a question.

at its just rate of four per cent by the issue of untaxed gold hoods ;
and when thus relieved of I heir parent-competing bonds of questioned

price, but exceed it in just eo much as the number of intelligent custo¬
mers or investors has been increased by and since our triumphs over
the rebellion and these its sequent difficulties.
The case above cited
will be confirmed as a test by the late experience of all similar State,
railroad, and other money-seeking enterprises of the day. No reflec¬
tion is meant upon the distinguished English bankers who have for so
many years protected the Massachusetts State finances abroad. Their
good services have hardly been sufficiently appreciated. They cannot
help it if the State allows its credit to be injured, nor if it leaves them
alone to protect it—by a questionable rejection of the fair offers of
others.
These Massachusetts five per cent thiity-year bonds, as com¬
pared with English three per cent con ols, when at par, are worth
189$, and should command at least 120 in gold, when reinstated and
compared with our future four per cents at par. If, then, the removal

ingenious scheme we offered some remarks a short time ago.
He is not satisfied w:th the small favor his impracticable
plans have commanded, and he solicits a reversal of the
popular judgment. Yesterday he appealed to the public by

We do not discuss this
singular currency machinery. We
merely refer to it as a subordinate part in Mr. Bowles’ scheme
for funding the d^bt. Its international feature appears to be
desired rather to meet some of the obstacles that might
arise in working out the negotiations. The first and greatest
obstacle of all is, however, untouched and apparently unper¬
ceived by Mr. Bowles. To this we would commend his early
attention. The public would be glad to bear from him as to
the means by which he expects to be able to persuade the
holders of our six per cent gold-bearing Five twenties to give
them up aDd to take in exchange non-taxable five per cent
bonds at par.
The desirableness of
a
return to
a
stable basis of values is
admitted
by every one and many are the methods proposed
by which that point may be reached. There is at present a
Want of fixedness and an absence of certainty in business trans¬
actions, which all deplore and which must continue while the
price of gold or more correctly speaking the value of the
greenback is daily and almost hourly changing. For with
this large and irredeemable paper currency, thus changing in
its purchasing power day by day, prices vary, the spirit of
speculation is kept active, and an unhealthy and unsteady
tone prevails in all financial and commercial circles.
In
no
branch of business is this continued fluctuation
more un¬
favorably felt than in the cotton trade. There is now no large
margin as formerly in prices between different countries. The
telegraph has brought this market and Liverpool and all
other cotton markets so closely together that a commission is
about all the merchant can secure in any transaction, and a
slight turn in gold can more than wipe out this, leaving a
loss as the net result of the operation. In fact sq great has

exchanges.
Entering thus with controlling influence into our foreign
commerce, how essential this change becomes.
With it
there would be uniformity in price at New Orleans, at
Mobile, at Charleston at New York, and at Liverpool*
Purchasers [would know what they were buying, and pro¬
ducers would know what they were selling.
On the other
hand, the present selling currency price, as stated above,
must always be first adjusted to the gold value at the
moment of purchase, and even then, before the transaction is
closed, it is clouded, and its results are, perhaps, materially
changed by the varying humors of the Gold Room. With
every hour the figure fluctuates; a rise or fall of several per
in a day, or a week. Gold rings are organ¬
ized, whose operations utterly paralize foreign commerce, and
a
wide-spread uncertainty and doubt become the rule where
order, harmony, stability and fixedness should govern.
The South, also, is now out of debt, and for this reason in
an excellent condition to inaugurate this scheme and put it
into effective practice. The old debts of the South have either
been paid, or where they could not be thus liquidated, they
have been wiped out by the Bankruptcy Act. There is not,
therefore, any debtor class to suffer by a return to specier
payments. At present the merchants from that section are
the favorite buyers in our market. They usually come wkh ,
cash, and have had behind them the immense value of the
cotton crop.
Formerly the South depended largely, indeed
almost entirely, on this great staple, and the money for it was
spent before the crop was raised. The changed condition*
resulting from the war, has introduced a changed method of
agriculture.
Industry is more diversified, and attention is
paid to the raising of a variety of crops.

trated the business of the nation
effectually as if it had
been stricken by a tornado or upheaved by an
earthquake.
Prices declined, the import trade ceased, the export business
was
checked, confidence departed, and the healthful com¬
mercial transactions of the whole country were suddenly and
unexpectedly arrested. Such lesults as these we have seen
recently. The “flurry” of a week culminated in a shock
which was at once composed by stupefying all the interests that
had been perturbed by it. If there had been a price in cur¬
rency before for cotton, it ceased to have a value then, and
as

teries of the market, and bring order out of the confusion

prevailed. Under our present currency system, we are
continually liable, and each succeeding year more liable to a
recurrence of these gold corners, and it would
appear that no
decision, however sweeping in its effects, could have a more
damaging influence upon the business interests of the country.
But more than this, we are led to believe that the govern¬
ment will take such steps that its issues of
currency will be
redeemable in gold on the announcement of such a
decision,
and the immediate effect may thus be of far less moment than
any imagine. We shall discuss this point more fully on a
future occasion.
In view of what has been said would it not be possible
and also the part of wisdom, for this city to take the lead in
this
extremely important matter. The cotton is at the South
but the great body of the capital which makes the
exchanges and transacts the business are here. Let cotton
factors explode these currency rates at once, quoting cotton in
a
language intelligible to all the world and not requiring an
elaborate arithmetical investigation to render it comprehen¬
sible. This staple offers the best point of departure because, as
we have
already stated, of its great value, and because so much
of it enters into
export, and is employed in adjusting the
balances of the foreign trade. There is a significance about
gold dealings in cotton which do not belong to grain or
tobacco. They are comparatively modern elements in our
commerce with the rest of the world, but they would not long
resist the impulse of the new tide on which business would be
to be sure,
The serious breaks in the Erie
Canal, which were produced
by the severe floods of October, and against which no fore¬
sight could have guarded, suspended navigation about two
weeks, and was attended by various circumstances which gave
it unusual

importance, and finally forces the whole subject of
transportation of breadstuffs eastward upon public atten¬
tion. The crop of spring wheat was fully twenty days late
this season, and this break occurred just at the time when it
began to move,—delaying the first considerable arrivals of
spring wheat at this market to about the first of November,
instead of the first of October, as usual; giving us, in fact
but about one month’s free deliveries by canal, instead of '
two, as usual.
Should the weather prove exceptionably •*>
favorable, we may have yet five weeks of canal navigation,
during which we have to accumulate such a stock of grain in •store as will, with the aid of the receipts by rail, enable a ✓
steady export movement to be maintained, in addition to the
local demand, without giving room for any important advance >
in prices. But if the canal should be suddenly closed by
frost in the last week in November, it would be a serious

circumstance.
period during which the Erie Canal remains closed is
usually about twenty weeks—sometimes as many as twentytwo, and often not more than eighteen. The largest accumu¬
lation of grain in store at this market, at the close of naviga¬
tion, has been about fourteen million bushels. The actual
wants of this market for consumption arq about 85,000 <
bushels per day; namely, 15,000 bushels wheat, 35,000
bushels corn, 25,000 bushels oats—the balance rye, barley,
&c. Thus fourteen million bushels in store will nearly meet
the wants of consumption during the winter months. But it
often happens that the quantity in store at the close of
navigation is unequally divided, there being a surplus of one
sort and a deficiency in another.
The railroads or specula¬

considerable quantities of grain at this market.. In the fall
of 1867, we think, we found at the close of navigation but
about 1,500,000 bushels of ooro in store—a quantity so

notoriously inadequate to our wants, even when supplies from
the South were added to it, that a great speculation and a
large advance in prices resulted therefrom. These high
prices induced the Erie railroad to make the needful prepara¬
tions to bring forward corn in cars, and very soon we had a
supply of from twenty to thirty thousand bushels per day.
The speculation broke down, and every legitimate interest
*was vastly benefited.
This marked a new era in the trans¬
portation of grain from the West. We have since received
large quantities of wheat and oats by the same means. For
the eight weeks ending last Friday, the deliveries of grain at
this market by rail amounted to the handsome aggregate of
3,412,600 bushels, over 70,000 bushels per business day
and nearly equal to the home wants of the market. The
Erie road has now many competitors in the business. The
New York Central, in connection with the Hudson River
Railroad, and the Pennsylvania and New Jersey Roads1, are
all engaged in bringing grain to this market.
During the winter season, these roads cannot bring to us
so much
grain as now. They will then be encumbered with
latge quantities of perishable products, which usually seek the
market in cold weather. Dressed hogs, game, and dressed
poultry—these justly claim and receive the preference. But
if the deliveries of grain by rail at this market be reduced to
50,000 bushels per day, there would not, even then, be danger
of any deficiency in supplies.
It is very probable that an ac*
cumulation of stocks in December will approximate eight
million bushels. The export demand is confined entirely to
wheat; and of this, unless the shipments shall be much larger
than for the past few weeks, a stock of four million bushels
will be ample.
Besides, there

the crop season,

by an unusually light return ©f currency after the compl tion of the
crop movement. Some considerable amounts of money were sent,
early in the month, to New Orleans and Savannah ; but, later, the

The cotton traders have, consequently, been compelled
to effect their operations as best they could, though, of course, with
some
inconvenience. Throughout the month the deliveries of new
currency of the lower denominations from the Treasury have been
quite nominal. The expectation of an ample supply of small notes
in November, and the suppo ition that money might then be sent
out more freely to the South and West, have induced the bank* to
keep their funds as much as possible on call, in preference to
employing them on time. Merchants have, consequently found it
difficult to get their paper discounted outside their own banks, and
the difficulty in selling notes has again increased the pre sure from
sellers, which, iu turn, has produced distrust among buyers, and at
the close oh the month, the best paper was negotiated with difficulty
at 10@12 per cent.
Tnis stringency in the discount market has,
perhaps, been the most unsatisfactory feature of the business of the

e
speculation stiil shows the effect of the severe blow
September gold operations. That
denouement gave an exposure of the hollowness of a certain class of
speculative operations which appears likely to hold the gambling
propensities of the “ street” hereafter in severe check. Operators
appear disposed to conduct their speculations within a lower range
of prices; and in every branch of business there is a very marked
caution. TLere is a certain undefined hesitancy about engaging in
operations for high prices, which appears to be inspired by a con¬
viction, grounded upon the general aspect of affairs, that we are on
the eve of a geLerally lower range of values. The markets have
been more cr less effected by a disposition to discount the proba¬
bility that Secretary Boutwell, iu his report on the assembling of
Congress, will make decidedly conservative recommendations,
designed to facilitate the resumption of specie payments; and this
feeling is encouraged by intimations, coming from quarters which
give them some weight, that the Supreme Court will pronounce
the Legal Tender Act unconstitutional.
Notwithstanding these
conservative tendencies, there has been a steady -recovery in
Wall street interests from the effects of the November • panic,
confidence beiDg more settled and prices steadier.

assume that a

spindles reporting last year, and 89 per cent of all in the United States, taken
as they come, will be a just and true ratio for the whole

preceding year’s work. It is therefore
applied to all the mills reported and uereoorted in the following statement of

production of heavy goods after January, said, “The aggregate for the whole
year is believed to be less than for the year preceding, hut this can be deter¬
mined only by renewed returns from the mills to he made at the close of the
season, 31st August.”
We have those returns, and they confirm the impres¬
sion which was common among manufacturers tint the home consumption has
been less than in the preceding year. On the other hand the stock of cotton held
in mills August 31,1869, was larger than that held August 31, 1868. The ex¬
cess this year was estimated by the Commercial and Financial Chronicle
of New York to be 30,000 bales. That estimate was too small, as shown by
later developments, as to stocks held, and by the limited quantities taken by
spinners since September 1st,—about 10,000 bales per week.

consumption south of the Potomac) were approximately correct, and a valnab e
contribution to the indu»trial statistics of the country. Your committee feel
compel ed to show that the Shipping Lift is no longer to bs regarded as au¬
thority, and to expose the errors which have rendered its cotton statistics
worse than useless since the close of the war.
They do it reluctantly. * * * *
Ml the authorities agree substantially in the statistics of exports foreign, and
of the stocks at the beginning and end of the year. They also agree in the
s’atistiosof Southern ports. It is the cotton moved by inland routes which
gives occasion for confusion and opportunity for misstatement. The attempt
to apportion its quantiti s to mill and ma ket, respectively, by estlma'ion only,
was in a matter of this consequence, a fault.
Persistence in such a course, after
its errors have been pointed out, beermes worse than a fault. Any error thus
produced in the amount of receipts” of cotton required a corresponding
error in the “home consumption” to balance it.
The item was madee^ast'c,
compressible, or expansible, to snit the exigencies of the case, and correspana
to the required amount of “ receipts at the ports.”
But in this item of hr me
consumption of cotton, both planters and manufacturers had a strong interest,
prompting a desire to know the truth about it. In ascertaining the consump¬
tion and its proportions, North and South, the Asiociation haB established a
statistical detector.
The several quantities: 1, of cotton retained for home
destroyed; 2, of cotton exported; 3, of s ocks in the ports at the be¬
ginning and end of the year; are all the elements required for ao exact state¬
uses, or
ment of the cotton crop.

During the last year ample proof has been given that the States sou h of the
Potomac River never consumed, for spinning purposes, in mills and families,
(except during the late war) so much as 85,000 bales of cotton in a year. The
use of cotten for mattresses and other upholstery nearly or quite ceased with
the advent of war prices. The cotton burnt or otherwise destroyed, after bein® baled, has not this year exceeded 4,500 bales. Statistics aie worse than
useless if not accurate. The question at issue is not merely whether the South¬
ern consumpt on of cotton, the past year, was 50,000 hales or 178,000 hales,
th< ugh that is an important one; but the question is, whether the public is
not misled by receiving as standard authority a compilation radically defective.
In the form used by the Shipping List, the subtraction of 173,203 bales from
the
production of the country, instead of 80,0U0or 85,010 hales left the “crop
smaller by the excess subtracted.
Thus, if the true Southern consumption only
”
had been deducted, the crop of
1868-9 would have been about 2,860,000 bales assuming that the other data and
the mthod of the Snipping List were correct. By similar ptocess the crop of
1867-8 would have been shown to be over 2,600,000 bales; of 1866-7 over 2,160,000
ha es • of 1865-6 over 2,20 ',000 hales, that is, if the several amounts appropria¬
ted in excess for Southern use were transferred to the several appropriations
for Northern use, and thence counted in the “ crop ” (as the Shipping List
always reckoned the Northern consumption in the crop), then the severalcr ps
would have been increased, as stated. For instance, the Shippii g List's an¬
nual statement for 1866-7, st ited the crop thus:

For many yea*s the Shipping and Commercial List of New York, was lustly
the standarn authority for annual statements of the cotton crops of the United
States. Down to 1862 its statements were well prepared from data, obtained
at the several seaports of the South whence nearly tne whole crop was shipped
to either Northern or Foreign ports, and the resu’ts (excluding an estimated

The statement of the Southern consumption at 280,673 bales was so obvi

annual statement the Shipping List changed the figures In its tab'e, ana
brought forward the home consumption of 1866-7, thus: North of Virginia,

present the

The committee, after a careful examination of
every point involved, feel
entire confidence in the
substantial correctness of the statement of the
crop of

they would not. wholly rely upon

As in the statistics of cotton, quantities are
usually stated in bales, the com¬
mittee have deemed it quite
important that the true average weighis of bale*
of United 8tates cotton shou d be
accurately ascertained, and they have insti¬
tuted Inquiries to this end.
In calling for returns from the mil’s of their actual
consumption the past
year, it was requested that the answers should be in both
pounds and hales.
The request was generally complied
with; seventy per cent (in consuming

import of wheat was as much as 1,015,734 cwt., against
561,532 cwt. in 1868.
Of Indian com and flour the imports have
also been considerable.
The following is the statement of i uportsand
tions continue
Duff, the Under Secretary for India, in the course
of a
speech to his constituents in Elgin, stated that the amount of India
exported last season, 1868-9, rose to 697,680,796 lb9., while, for
the season before, it was only 614,056,049 lbs.
He added he bad no
doubt that there would be a steady improvement both in quality and
quantity if, as there is every reason to expect, tbe present demand goes
on.
The Secretary of State and the Viceroy have the extension and
improvement of our cotton supply much at heart, and we have already
some active officers who are engaged in doing their very best to promote
them—Mr. Rivett-Carnac, for example—and the number will no doubt
increase. When the Government, however, has done its utmost, a vast
deal will remain to be done.
Enlightened self-interest must be the real
dtiving-wheel, the enlightened self-interest of persons in this country
who want cottoD, and the enlightened self-interest of the Indian peasant
otton
who wants rupees.

Friday Evening,
The Money Market —The chief feature
November 5.
of the market has been
activity in cal! Joans. The Broadway Bank, as the
depository of the city funds, has had to disbuise about 87,0* 0,000
in interest and principal upon city and county bond^ and bonds for
the return of taxes ; and the preparation for these payments has
involved the calling in of some heavy loans, with the result of a
more active movement.
This produced a temporary advance of
about 1 per cent in the rate of call loans; but, at the close, the
an
increaced
market has fallen back imo its former ease, the rate on stock
bond collaterals
being $@7
per
and
cent, with exceptions at 5 per cent
to dealers in Governments.
Some moderate amounts of currency have been sent to the South ;
and orders for money have b:e» received from Louisville and Cin¬

matters relative to railways and banks.

There has

while its payments, against purchases of $4,000,000 of bond?, have
been about $4,520,000, leaving a balance which has gone into the
banks of about $1,980,000. The Treasury is distributing the new
United States notes of ihe lower denominations rather more freely,
but not in sufficient volume to materially affect the ability of the
banks to meet the wants of their country correspondents.

The light demand prevailing is

Shippers report very unfavorable ad¬
vices from abroad, and not only refuse to
purchase, but are in
some instanceselling out contracts, whenever buyers can be
found. Mess Pork has declined to $27 for
January delivery ;
prime steam Lard to 16£c for prime delivery; Cumberland
Bacon, 131@13fc. Some new prime Mess sold to-day at

Hides have advanced to 22fc, gold, for prime

In fact, from sections
supposed to be lost, we now hear a contrary
story. Furthermore, the point we referred to last week may have
an important bearing on the total crop, as it certainly is having on
present estimates; that is to say, the fact that the proportion of lint
to seed is this year much geater than last year.
For instance, the
weight of the lint last season was only about 28 per cent, while this
season it is stated to be about 38 per cent, which would show a total
increase in the product of about 30 per cent. These circumstances,
together with the further one that the land planted is this year,
supposed to be at least 10 per cent m excess of last year, furnish the
basis for the increased estimates. The storms of a week ago dp not
appear to have resulted in very general injury, though we see the

kets, our correspondent in London, writing under the date of Octo¬
ber 21, states:
Liverpool, Oct. 21.—The demand for cotton increased in the early
p >rt of the week, and on Monday and Tuesday the market was very
strong at full prices. The sales since have been to a fair extent, and
prices remain without material change, with the exception of American,
which is free y offered and has falleu fd to £ 1 per lb.
The dec ine in
the prices of common Sea Island has attracted the attention of
buyer*,
and more business has been done than for many Weeks
past; in some
instances rather lower rates have been accepted, but holders now
gener Hy refuse to make
further concessions.
Brazil has been in fair
request, but, the market being well supplied, prices are in some
instunc-s fd per lb lower. For Egy ptian there has been a good demand,
especially for the qualities about “ fair,” but without quotable change
in prices.
In East India a large business has been transacted, at an
advauce of f d to f 1 j er lb ; bu with rather le?s demand, this
improve¬
ment has to-day been barely sustained.
The transactions “to arrive”
have been to a lair extent, and higher rates have been
paid, but the
latest quotations are : American, basis of Middling, from Cbarleiton,
steamer Darned, llfd ; ship named, llfd; any
port, October-November
shipment, llfd; November-December, llfd ; Bengal, fair new Mer¬
chants, July sailing, September sailing and ship named, 8d per lb. The
sales of the week, including forwarded, amount to 91,960 bales, of which
21,800 are on speculation and 17,010 declared for export, leaving
53,660 bales to the trade.

Friday Evening, November 5, 1869.
The
of trade
during the week has been marked by
declining prices in the principal grocery markets, a good part
of which may be attributed to the steady fall in
the price of
gold which has settled from 12S£, at which it closed one week
ago, to 127£, at which it closes to-night.

TEA.
The week has elicited ouly a very moderate trade in teas.
For In¬
voices the demand has been unimportant and sales are of small amount.
In Lines there has been a fair business and we notice more
inquiry for
Oolongs in which the poor qualities have fully shared, and which
has taken up quite freely most of the offerings in this branch of the
trade. The operations have been, it is thought, on speculative account
mostly, they include to-day nearly 8,000 half chests of OoloDgs, sold
from second hands.
The reported sales are 5,481 half-chests of Greens
8,260 do of Oolongs, and 600 do of Japans.
There have been no receipts during the week.
COFFEE.
For Rio Coffee the demand has been fair and with
light offering s
prices have been steady. The semi-monthly telegram from Rio d®
Janeiro, under date of October 8th, was received on Monday. Ths
shipment to and sales of Coffee for the United States between steamer
fall considerably below those reported- in the next preceding telegram
and our market has been strengthened by the advices. - In West India
Coffee the movement has been unimportant, but the market remains
firm. Stocks, both in these and in Brazil Coffee, are very light.
AmoDg the sales of the week a noticeable one has been that of some
1,629,869 500 bags of Plantation Ceylon Coffee at 25c, gold.
Among the sales
are 13,497 bags of Rio : 1,200 do of
Lagnayra, and 500 do of Plan¬

SUGAR.
Prices have continued to decline and have
dropped £(S-Jc in
raw
sugars since our last. The loss has not been quite so marked in sugars
of grocery grades, but they have been weak at at least *c lower rates.
Refiners have been discouraged by the depreciating rates realised by
their products, and have reduced their purchases very considerably,
while Western buyers have held off in anticipation of the receipts of
Louisiana sugar, and the trade here have found themselves sufficiently
well stocked for their wants. One element of weakness has been the
made in
disposition of holders to “ unload/’ and the liberal offerings

during the week has been inactive with a
downward tendency in prices of some goods. Cotton has
been rather weak under the large receipts of the incoming
crop, and with an unimportent demand for goods there has
been nothing to support pi ices, except, in some particular
instances, the smallness of stocks.
In consequence, however, of th« low prices already touched,
there has not been a further general decline in Sheetings, and
Prints have even shown more firmness for new styles. There
is a tolerably healthy condition of affairs on the market, taken
altogether, and if we could look for any decided activity soon
the prospects would be very fair; as it is, there seems to be
reason to expect only a moderate demand during this part of
the season, but probably better than at the same time iu
previous years, on account of the small stocks held in the

Bleached Sheetings and Shirtings are in fair request for the lead¬
ing makes, while medium and lower grades can be moved only upon
concessions, and not then to a large extent. The present condition of
rates and the weak state of the market for the raw material, combined
with the uncertainty in financial matters, has rendered buyers very
timid, and they invest ooly upon actual wants. Several brands of lea iing makes are extremely scarce, and for these agents will not accept
orders for future delivery except at full value, or, in other words, from
1 to 1* cents advance on present nominal rates.

Prints are improving gradually ; new goods in desirable
styles are
taken about as fast as opened at the reduced prices, and stocks of ihese
are quite small in both first and second bands, while old
stock in passe
and undesirable styles is really a drug on the market. The number of
poor designs produced this year is large, and buyers, in view of the
other circumstances depressing the market during the past season, were
not sufficiently tempted with the
array of the patterns submitted ;
hence the accumulation of stock. The prospects for the
ensuing season
in the way of designs, however, promise well, and we have no doubt
but the business will compensate in a great measure for the past sea¬
son’s.

Cloths are quiet, few goods moviDg beyond those for keeping up stocks
in jobbers’ hands. Overcoatings are also quiet—clothiers are taking
few or none, and about the only trade doing is, as we have stated pre¬
viously, of cloths for sorting up.
Cassimeres are inactive. 'Ihe finer grades of plaids and fashionable
designs are in slight inquiry, but, on the whole, the market is quite dull.
Flannels and Blankets are moving moderately, although far behind
anticipations for the time of the year. Present indications point towards
a closing of the season’s business
in this line.
Kentucky Jeans are quiet, with rates rather weak.
Shawls are still in active demand for desirable ptyles, while lesser
grades show a slight falling off in inquiry. • The business in this line
this season thus far has been excellent, an! manufacturers may well
congratulate themselves on their success. Stocks in jobbers’ hands are
much reduced, and m agents’ hands also, while the leading mil's are
running night and day to fill orders already placed. The business has
been a remunerative one, and the proof of it is shown in the number of
really beautiful designs produced.
The auction sales have developed no features differing from what has
been reported during the past two weeks.
Owners of goods are offer¬
ing all that the market will bear, while buyers are a ting very cauti¬
ously, though they are ready to take almost any quintity of goods at
their own prices. This determination is followed up from day to day
with a persistency which is not unfrequently successful. Latterly the
auction sal69 have shown more interesting features.
The election
being over, buyers have time to attend to business. Besides this, the
steady decline in gold enables owners to offer goods at lower prices, and
the auction rooms are Letter supplied than for some days previously.
The attendance was good and the bidding mote animated, although at
a much lower grade of prices.
