THE ELECTION AND CONGRESS.
We have at last reached the end of another Presidential
contest, and the two parties, a few days since apparently so
hostile, are living together now in millennium quietness. In
fact, one would scarcely know, from any present sign, that
have had any
that the result had not
given to the vast majority of us just what we ^wished.
This is not evidence of any loss of interest in the principles
for which each party thought it was contending, but to a
readiness our people have in yielding, till another similar
occasion may offer, to a popular verdict obtained in our
republican way.
But we do not think it would be fair to accept the result
of the election as indicating to any extent the popular belief

our people favor a remodeling of the tariff
and a tendency
towards freer trade in our legislation; and that they will
give expression to that opinion through' their votes when¬
ever the question is raised in such a way as not to require
at the same time the sacrifice of other principles.
The one sentiment or feeling which has prevailed and
exercised more control than all others throughout this con¬
test, is a satisfaction with present business prospects and a
fear lest any change in administration should disturb the
conditions which have produced it. Business is as a whole
excellent; our people are prosperous; there is therefore no
pressing need for change. Furthermore, in this instance the
party seeking to displace the one in power, has not given that
evidence of devotion to principle which, to say the least, gives
it any pre-eminence over the other in.that particular. Busi¬
ness men, especially in this neighborhood, have been asking
themselves would specie payments be as stable if we per¬
mit a change of parties?
Would that worst of all our
present evils, the coinage of silver dollars, be as soon
stopped under the new administration? In a word, would
our many currency problems
and financial interests be
bandied as wisely after the change as now ?
Although the
party in power has fallen short of putting itself on the
highest grounds in some of these particulars, and has given
an opportunity to another for a better record, it is notori¬
ous that the opposition has not taken advantage of the
opportunity, but has through the majority of its represen¬
tatives—though there are many noble exceptions—looked
towards the worst currency heresies.
The result of this
election then is simply an affirmation that the business
interests of the country did not feel that it was safe to
make such a shift of government responsibility at the
present time.

Politicians cannot too often reflect on these facts.
They
furnish, however, only new proof of a well-worn truth,
that an unsound financial policy (or better still, perhaps, to <
say a dishonest policy, for in practice it amounts to that)
makes unreliable stock for political capital.
Our people
know too well the importance of keeping faith with their
creditors, both public and private, to have it otherwise.
Congress is now about to meet, and very soon many of our
legislatures will be in session. Grave questions of national
and State policy still remain unsettled, requiring the best
statesmanship to deal with them wisely. Tnere is a chance
here for both sides of the House to make a record, and it

Pursuing this thought, it is noticed that the outlines
of cheek and lips, and the region about the eyes, are
drawn out by the freedom and comparative solitude of
a country life, being left at liberty to expand naturally.
The influence of the country is, to create repose ; its
stillness, its broad expanses and impassiveness, its
measured and orderly procedure, cause us “ to let our
faces alone, so to say.” On the other hand, the contact
of man with man involves and requires self-repression.

large influx of gold from abroad, and the disbursement of

Railroad earnings were so large, too, as

London, Saturday, October 23, 1880.
There has been rather more business doing in gold for trans¬
mission to America during the week, but the principal demand
has been on the Continent. From the 16th to 18th, the
French steamers took out £600,000 in gold, and further amounts
will probably follow. In the state of the money market in this
country there has not been much alteration. The Bank rate
remains at 2/£ per cent, and in the open market the quotation
is about 2 per cent for three months’ bills.
The Bank return is
satisfactory, there being an increase in the proportion of
reserve to liabilities from 47*27
per cent to 48*72 per cent. The
directors of the Bank have been transacting a larger loan and
discount business, while the supply of bullion has been raised
by £347,237 and the total reserve by £673,972. The trade
reports are fairly satisfactory, and a continuance of this state
of^things is anticipated daring the remainder of the year. The

During the week ended October 16 the sales of home-grown
produce iu the 150 principal markets of the United Kingdom
amounted to 56,471 quarters, against 26,122 quarters last year;
and it is estimated that in the whole kingdom they were 225,800
quarters, against 104,500 quarters in 1879 and 230,300 quarters
in 1878. Since harvest the sales in the 150 principal markets
have been 309,978 quarters, against 136,018 quarters last year;
while it is computed that in the whole kingdom they have been
1,240,000 quarters, against 544,100 quarters in the corresponding
period of 1879 and 1,847,320 quarters in the corresponding period
of 1878. Without reckoning the supplies furnished ex-gran¬

Baiiroad bonds have been very active at high prices. The
leading speculative bonds have kept pace with the stocks of their
respective companies, and rival them as favorites for speculative
transactions at the, Board. The prices of old bonds are so high
that nearly everything of respectable stand bearing 6 per cent
interest is now advancing towards par, or even selling above that
figure.
Railroad and miscellaneous Stocks.
'Phe stock market
has been quite irregular, with a pretty large volume of business.
On Monday, before the elections, confidence was well sustained
and prices of many stocks advanced. On Wednesday, when the
result was known, the market was also buoyant on large transac¬
tions. But it was almost inevitable that after the elections were
over there should be a very considerable movement to realize by
many holders of stocks who could secure a handsome profit; and
such a movement actually taking place, prices naturally gave
—
way on Thursday and this morning. This afternoon, however,
there was a sharp rally, and the closing prices were often near
the best of the day. Against the idea of any great collapse in
stocks under a bear attack, similar to that of November, 1879,
there now stands the almost unlimited confidence in the commer¬
cial prosperity of the country, and in the capacity of the rail¬
roads to make large earnings. The practical result of this should
be to bring in strong purchasers of stocks on every decline which
seems to offer a fair profit.
The ways of cliques, however, are
past finding out, and if the
monjey market should work closely
bear combination should be formed to buy in stocks at
and a
lower figures before the end of the year, it is not
prices c _>uld be hammered down materially.

Graham, Trustee, $96,442; making a total of $132,144; the
remainder, amounting to $11,661, is shown in the Secretary
and Treasurer’s report, showing the financial condition of the
company.
The President says the balance of mortgage debt not
pro¬
vided for is $127,533. “ When the mortgage was made bonds
to the amount of $1,500,000 were printed and placed in the
vaults of the company.
As only $790,000 of these bonds were*
issued, there still remain in the vaults of the company
$810,000, some of wliich have been signed by the proper offi¬
cers of the company.
I would respectfully recommend to the
stockholders, in obedience to a resolution passed by the board
of directors, that these bonds be destroyed by a committee to
be appointed by the board of directors.”

Boston & Lowell—Nashua & Lowell.—The Boston Journal
reports: “The Boston & Lowell and the Nashua & Lowell
Railroads were operated together for many years under a joint
contract, which expired by its own limitation two years ago.
The Boston & Lowell Corporation at that time declined to
renew the old contract, but offered to lease the Nashua road on
terms riot satisfactory to the latter company.
The roads have
been operated separately ever since, and, although both parties
were ready to admit the mutual
advantages to both of a single
management in many respects, they have till recently been un¬
able to agree upon the terms of such single management. The
directors of the two corporations have now agreed upon the
basis of a lease by the Boston & Lowell of the Nashua & Lowell

The Boston Journal gives the following interesting history
of this case:
Th« Vermont & Canada Railroad was organized in 1849, tlie road,
originally being from Essex Junction to Rouse’s Point, a distance of
forty-seven miles. To comply with the charter it was necessary to
extend the line from Essex Junction to Burlington, and in 1858 the
charter was extended for five years, and in 1861 the extension to Bur¬
lington through the Tunnel was made, and the connection with the Rut¬
land road'completed.. In 1850 and ’51 the Vermont & Canada leased

and to operate the same till rent was paid. The road from Burlington

dull and prices drooping. The
holiday, and excitement incident thereto, together with
the absence of any active influences, prevented any business of
importance, or any wide fluctuations in prices. There was, early
in the week, some demand to cover contracts; stimulated by
rainy weather at the South and the natural disposition to close
accounts previous to a holiday ; but on Wednesday and Thurs¬
day, the better weather and some disposition to increase crop
estimates caused a decline in the more distant months. There
has been a narrowing of the range between “ spots ” and “ short
notices,” the former declining to 11c. and the latter advancing to
10*80c., the difference being reduced from 56 to 20 points. To¬
day, the opening was weak, under dull foreign advices ; but the
smaller receipts at interior towns (as reported for the week)
caused a slight advance at the close. Cotton on the spot was
dull, and quotations were on Wednesday reduced l-16c. Yester¬
day, at the decline, there was more doing for export. To-day
the market was quiet.
The total sales for forward delivery for the week are 302,20Q
bales, including
free on board. For immediate deliverythe total sales foot up this week 6,423 bales, including 4,031 for
export, 2,308 for consumption, 84 for speculation, and

Friday, P. M.. November 5, 1880.
The
advancing tendency of cotton goods has given a marked
impetus to the demand, and there was, during the past week, a
comparatively large movement in plain and colored cottons,
accompanied by a slight but almost general advance in prices.
Quiet prevailed in most other departments of the trade, but
large Western and South western buyers are beginning to revisit
the market, and there are indications of a more active business
in the near future. Values of domestic productions have not
materially changed (aside from cotton goods), but there is a
very firm feeling in the trade, based upon the large prospective
demand and the exceptionally light supplies resting between
manufacturers and consumers.

yard, the market closing strong with am
upward tendency. Print cloths were active and firm at 4%c.
for 64x64s. and 3%c. for 56x60s. Prints, ginghams and cotton
dress goods ruled quiet and steady at unchanged prices.
Domestic Woolen Goods.—The demand for men’s wear
woolens has been only moderate, but prices were well main¬
tained as a rule. Heavy cassimeres were less active, but stocks
are now in good shape and holders are less disposed to grant
price concessions than a short time ago, owing to the advancing
tendency of wool. Spring cassimeres and worsted coatings were
in irregular demand and rather quiet upon the whole, but the
most popular makes are steadily held. For Kentucky jeans
there was only a limited inquiry, but satinets were taken in
fair quantities by the clothing trade. Flannels and blankets
continued in steady request and prices ruled firm and un¬
changed. Hosiery, knit underwear and fancy knit woolens
were severally in fair demand and fairly steady in price.
Foreign Dry Goods.—There has been no change of impor¬
tance in the market for imported goods, and the demand was
chiefly of a hand-to-mouth character. Silks, satins and velvets
are still in large supply and prices are unsatisfactory, but
staple dress goods, linens, white goods, laces, embroideries, &c.,
are fairly steady at current quotations.
