Two reasons were given in

power to establish a bank. This obvious principle has
so long been settled that its constitutionality is not

of our financial jurisprudence. But if Congress has the

CURRE\CY AND THE FIECTIOSS.

One carelessly reviewing the election returns of the
past week would fail to see any principle pervading
them; yet there is such a principle, and a little reflection
makes it not only apparent, but shows that it was pro-

There are, no doubt, many circumstances which have
during late years contributed to make the business community restive and dissatisfied. They are tired of the
burdens under which they labor. Before the war the

were that representations should bo
made to the Turkish Government respecting the guarantees which
had been given and the special hypothecations which had been
made, a desire being also expressed that the bondholders were
prepared to give most earnest consideration to any proposition
which may be made on behalf of the Saltan to assist him in his
present financial embarrassment.
The market for foreign Government securities has continued
very unsettled, and Egyptian descriptions are much weaker. Ag
stated above, fears have been entertained amongst the investing
public that Egypt would follow the course adopted by Turkey,
and repudiate half the interest due to her creditors hence the
public have been scrambling to get out of their stock, which has
caused prices to fall very rapidly. No doubt, the heavy decline
which ha.s taken place will induce influential buyers to come
forward, as there is no reason to believe that Egypt is likely to
collapse like Turkey. That country undoubtedly possesses more
vigor and is a greater producer than Turkey, and hence more
confidence should be felt in her ability to meet honorably all her

This work will be found very useful to the merchaut, economist and banker, as the arrangement is highly convenient for
reference and in a form and classification never before presentfd
It al'o contains a series of tables, arranged alphato the public.
betically, showing the value of each unit as given both in the
Eogllsh and the metric standards The metric system is used coextensively with the ordinary system, and is a characteristic feature of the book.
The contents, among other things, contain the following useful and comprehensive tables, viz.: I. Measures of Lenp'h, in
both the English or American feet or inches, and in French
metres. II. Road Measures in English Miles and French Kilo-

IV. Cubic Measures. V. Liquid
metres. III. Land Measures.
VI. Dry Measures.
Measures.
VII. Weights, and finally
Money. This latter table is one of. the most useful and valuable
tables probably to be found, giving asit does the standards in dollars, francs, sterling and marks, and alone is worth the cost of
the book.

The old suit against the Brooklyn Trust Company, brought
by the town of Middletown, Conn., and r.rising out of the difficulties connected with the defalcation of E. S. Mills and his associates, has lately been settled by the surrender of $500,000
endorsed bonds of the New Haven, Middletown & Willimanlic
Railroad, to the plaintiffs. These bonds had been held by the
Trust Company as a part of the securities deposited by Mills as
collateral for the cash advances made to him.

notice that Mr. Lewis King, late with Messrs. James G.
King's Sons, has associated himself with Messrs. Myers, Rutherfurd & Co., of No. 4? Exchange place. This firm propose to continue the general brokerajje business as heretofore, and, in addition, propose to give especial attention to investment securities of

principal topics of conrersation this week in Wall street were tbe

recent elections the probable dedaion ot the
Conrt on the important " granger " railroad eaaea and the UoioM
PaciBc case, just argued before it and the proapeels of utj

Virginias strong on a homedemand. FuDding goes on in Louisiana, and we have seen in this market some of ilie new consols
numbered as bi^h as 3,100 on the f 1,000 bonds, 807 on the $500
bonds, and 1,410 on the f 100 bonds. In regard to fusding bonds

of (he Union and Central Pacific roads, which declined un Thursday and recovered very sharply to-day. The fluctuations were
largeat in Union Pacific sinking fumis, which declined to 80
yeaterday and sold back to 85 to-day, the break having been
eaaaed by the circulation of unfounded rumors that the U. S.
Supreme Court would reverse the decision of the Court of Claims
and give judgmitnt against the company. The present suit is, at
moat, only an action by the Union Pac fie Company lo recover
ftoai the Government tbe earnings from its transportation buBineaa withheld as an offset to tbe Interest paid on ibe V S. l>onda
laaned to the company. The question of the obligation of the
company to pay all the current inlorest due on these ixinds is a
eoUalaral snojeet, and would not be finally determined in the
preaent suit.
It is reported in private di.'<patches that the suit
will either l>e decided next «reek or else put over till the first
wetk in January. The famous granger railroad cases have been
argued Vt great length, and will probably be decided early in
January.

declined during the week and
loaning rates have become easy. The decline is generally
attri1)u ted to the effect of the election, in which the defeat of
inflation principles was such a conspicuous feature. The Treasury

There has therefore been for the past half year no balance
available for dividend on the preference stocks, and the above
sum of £143 lOs., added to the balance from the last account of
£1,180 Is. Id., makes a total amount to be carried forward to the
account of £1,333 lis. Id. The operations of the Company
for the past six months, have been carried on under circumstances

Jiext

of

greatest difficulty and anxiety, brouglit about by causes
all must see to have been, entirely beyorfd the control of the
directors, or the Executive in Canada.
They have resulted in a
decrease of the gross receipts (after deduction of loss on American
curreucy)of £10«,393, or 10-64 per cent, as compared with the
corresponding half year in 1874, although there has been at the
same time ai; actual increase in the work done. These causes
have been mainly 1. The great depression in trade and depreciation in freight rates, common to the whole of the United States
and Canada, but principally afTecting the lines f communication
conveying the produce of the West to the Seaboard. 3. The
ucprecedently severe and unfavorable weather during the first
three months of 1875 and 3. Increased competition, arising orinci pally from the extension of the Baltimore & Ohio line to Chicago,
the construction of the Canada Southern parallel to the Great
Westerj line, and the unfortunate competition by the latter company curried on against the Grand Trunk with great determination and energy during the early part of the half year. (Comparing
this half year with the corresponding period of 1874, the paBsenge'r
receipts show a decrease of £3,328, or 103 per cent, and the freight
receipts of £au,068,or 1441 per cent. The total number of passengers carried was 887,176, against 903,435 and the quantity of
freight was 880,321, »gainst 908,750 tons.
The average receipt per
passenger was Os. l^d., against 69. Id., and per ton of freight 13s.
4d., i.gainst 15s. 1 Jd.
The loss of receipts on the freight traffic has
arisen almost entirely from the lownesa of the rates, because,
although the number of tons carried was less by 38,000, the
whole of the traffic was conveyed an average distance of 25 miles
further than in 1874, which was equivalent to carrying 956,000
tons for the average distance (390 miles) of the corresponding half
year in 1874 and as compared with that half year there was an
addition of 5| per cent to the work done.
The following is a
comparative siateiuent, showing the average distance each ton has
been carried, and the average rate per ton per mile received since
1872, viz

or 78-54 per cent of the gross receipts, against £783,002, or 78-23
per cent, for the corresponding half year of 1874, showing a
decrease in expenditure of £bO,543, and an increase in the per
centage of expenses to receipts of 0.31 per cent. As the loss of
gross revenue was £106,393 the result of the half year shows a
decrease in net revenue of £25,851. In making a comparison it
must be remembered, however, that there lias been an increase iu
the amount of work done, as explained in Section 11, of
5i per
cent, and a decrease in the scale of remuneration of 18 per cent
compared with the June half of 1874, so that there has been an
important diminution in the cost of transportation, although, owing
to the dirastrous effect of the weather upon tlie traffic receipts
during the first quarter of the year, no redaction in the principal
Items of expenditure was possible during these months.
The total charge to capital account during the half year was £399,973.
Of this amount £111,130 was for discount on the issue of
new capital, exchange, and bankers' commission; £74,709 was t';e
contribution from capital towards the cost of laying steel rails
£24,000 was applied in redemption of 6 per cent. International
bridge bonds, and the remaining amount of £90,134 on land purchases, new works and stock, and completing the new ferry boat
at Karnia.
The balance chargeable against capital, in respect of
steel rails, is £38,300, which will be charged in the December half
of the current year, after which no farther amount will be expeniled out of capital for steel rails. During the half year £600,000 of
perpetual 5 per cent Debenture slock was issued, the proceeds of
one-half being specially set aside for the purchase of certain cars,
and the Union Station at Toronto, in accordance with the objects
ot the " Debenture Stock Act, 1874."

on the 1st of Feb., 1805, the county issued $700,000 bonds to the
company on whicu interest was paid monthly till June last, since
which time it has been in default. The petition next set forth
that, on the 14th July, 1875, the company, being then bankrupt
and insolvent, fraudulently executed a mortgage for $4,000,000
with interest to give preference to certain creditors.
Calvin Littlefield of New York, a bondholder of the Atlantic &
Pacific Road, recently applied to Judge Treat of St. L-)uis to
appoint a receiver of that road, and on the 3d a private dispatch
from St. Louis was received as follows: Judge Treat appointed as
receivers Thomas T. Buckley of New York, Oliver Garrison and
John H. Beach of St. Louis.
The Tribune report says " The officers of the road having
withdrawn from the position assumed on their behalf by Clinton

Louisiana State Bonds-Fnnding.— The Attorney General
has rendered au opiniou tha'. the Funding Board may fund, at
their face value, state bonds pre.iented witliout coupons attached.
The N. 0. 2'im(S says of it: " To fund a stale bond williout its
appropriate coupon, is to defeat our whole funding scbeine. If,
carelessly, a precedent i" to be established for tbe funding of
bonds with coupons detached, what is to prevent every bond
holder from cutting off bis coupous, and funding bonds first and
coupons afterwards? Such a process might leave us with more
new consolidated bonds than tbe whole present amount of tbe
debt. This difcloses the great importance of tbe situation.
Bonds T)re6ented without coupons should be exchanged for consols without coupons, or some similar precaution taken to guard
the State against unlimited imposition."
At a recent meeting of tbe Funding Board $55,960 of bonds
and coupons were funded.
Mr. C. L. C. Dupre presented five 6 per cent, levee bonds without coupous attached, which again raised tbe question -if funding
Mr. Phelps opposed their funding. He

ture of 1874 cancelled these coupons, and the fact of thf ir being
detached from the honds would have no effect hereafter. He
favored tbe funding of tbe bonds, but moved that the question be
referred till a full meeting ot the board could be had. Subsequently, we undi rstand, it was dtcidtd to cut off cf upons of uew
consols in place of coupons wantiii; on the bonds funded.

these two items aet off each other. The receiver further states
tbat the earnings of the road in his cliarge have been only sufficient to pay the operating expenses, and he has therefore been

by the working "f tlie New Factory Act which came into operation on the 1st of January, <ind by the stoppage of machinery
occasioned by labor disputes at Oldham, Ashton.etc. At the rate
of 8415 lbs. per spindle, the consumption in 1874-'75 would have
reached 1.293,3&1,000 lbf>., but from tbis figure must be deducted

CONSUMPTION OF GREAT BRITAIN.

The weight

of cotton actually consumed in Great Britain in
1870-71 was considerably less than the weight delivered but
nearly the whole of the surplus on bund at the close of the season disappeared in 1871-72, and we shall not be far astray if we
assume that the total consumption fqr the two seasons was about
equal to the aggregate weight delivered. On this supposition the
weight of cotton consumed per spindle was about the same as in
the two years immediately preceding the commencement of the
American War. This is shown in the following statement

REQUIREMENTS FOR 1875-76.
of spindles in Great Britain at the close of 1874
was 37,515,000, against 84,695.000 at the close of 1870 showing
an increase ot 2,8i0,000 spindles or 8'1 per cent, in five years.
The average annual increase was 1 62 per cent, A similar addi'
tlon to 87,515,000 in 1875-76 would give 607,000, or a total of
These at 3445 lbs, per spindle would require a total
38,122,000,
supply of 1,313,302,000 lbs, of cotton, or, deduciinif 5 per cent.
for reduced time under the Factory Act, say 65,065,000 lbs,, a net
supo'y of 1,217,63 7,0o0 lbs. With a healthy demand for yarns
and goods, at least half of the diminution occasioned by the act
would be recovered by increasing ihe speed of the machinery. In
this case the requirements for the season would be 1,280,469,000 lbs.
may safely say, therefore, that Great Britain will want from
1,250.000,000 to 1.280,000,000 lbs., or an average of 1,205,000,000
lb"., which at 388 lbs. per bale would be equal to 3,260,000 bales,
or 62,700 bales per week.
Assuming that the ftocks held at the. mills by Continental
spinners are no larger than they were two years ago, the weight
of cotton consumed in the two seasons has shown an average
According to our inforincrease of about 5 per cent per annum.
mation the requirements for 1875-6 will be about 3 per cent
greater than the consumption in 1874-5, or about 937,000,000 lbs.,
against 908,000,000 lbs.
For all Europe, therefore, the requirements for 1875-6 will be

5. 1876.

There has been less activity in the goods market the past week,
owing mainly to the excitement attendant upon elections in several
States; and in volume the week's business has been light. In
creased demand for cotton goods for export has continued, and
this has given a firmer tone to the market fordomestic productions
than has been seen for months past. The actual shipments of
brown sheetings to Liverpool have l)een greatly exaggerated, and
at least a considerable portion of those sent forward are believed

and the sappir is strictly moderate. Fine Itrown sheetings (of
which 1.000 bales were shipped to Liverpool) have be»n mor>^
firmly held and higher prices are anticipated. Heavr standard
and foaryard brown sheriinf;* were in fair request, and bUaciied
shirtings were taken more freely by shirt manafactnr<!r9, although in m'lderate parcels. Tickinifs, dt^nims, cheviots, stripes
and checks were severally in limited demand, bat there was more
inqoiry on the part of the elothini; trade for eottonajes. Qrain
hags, batts, warps, yams and twines were leas active in first hands,
hot were jobbed in lair amounts. Print dolbs remained quiet,
but a few transactions were eflaeted on the basis of 4i

days for standard Mz64 malies. Plaid prnts and robes were in
moderate demand and there was more inquiry for shirtings, but
fancy madder and ehooolate prints were devoid of animation.
Oinghams were in good demand, and no surplus of standard fancies exists, aa is the ease with plaid eoltoa dress fabrics which
