that it has been to a great extent brought on from specula¬

Mr. McCulloch, with a
possible the area of inquiry, deter¬
mined to select a different class of men from the lawyers
and politicians who had formerly served on our Congressional
Tax Committees. How far this arrangement will secure the
benefits of a more intimate and practical acquaintance with
the business of the country the official report of the commit¬
tee will show.
The three gentlemen who were appointed
are
Stephen Colwell of Philadelphia, David A. Wells of
Troy, N. Y., and S. S. Hays of Chicago. These gentlemen,
after holding their meetings for several weeks at the Custom
House in this city, repaired a few days ago to Boston, where
they are still in session.
It is of course premature to speculate on the nature of the
suggestions and improvements which their report will em¬
body for the consideration of Congress. There are, how¬
ever, two or three fundamental defects in the existing law
for which no doubt a remedy will be suggested.
Of these
the most obvious is the great number of articles on which
excise taxes are laid.
A majority of these cannot with ad¬
vantage be taxed at all. For it is a cardinal principle of

the field under flattering auspices. Mr. Thomas Allan, the
electrican, has made over to this new enterprise the exclusive
right to use his cable and patented system of deep-sea tele¬
graph. This, it is claimed, will save about one-third of the
first cost, and add fifty per cent to the working power. The
peculiar construction of the Allan cable, and the smallness of
its bulk and weight, renders its carrying and submerging a
simple mechanical operation, obviating to a great degree the
risk of injury.
A southern route by Portugal has been fixed upon for the
route of the cable.
This is a comparatively new direction.

made for the present revival. The amount of goods in hand was
small. The manufacturing states Were afflicted by a drouth,
one of the most severe on record, which restricted work at

in July instituted a rigid inspection of the sanitary condition of the
city of New York. The island was divided into twenty-nine dis¬
tricts, and a physician employed to each to examine the drainage,
cleanliness of the streets, character of the houses, and their whole¬
someness. On the 1st of December these inspectors presented a re¬
port of their observations, which is here given. We are not pre¬
pared to accept the conclusions of the Council that the rate of mor¬

and Europe; nor do we believe that it can be substantiated. But
we know that there exists in many districts an extraordinary den¬

EPITOME.

The markets

without

activity or important feature, except
with respect to Cotton aud Breadstuff;:, as noticed under the special
heads. The stringency in the Money market ha3 checked the spec¬
ulative feeling in most staples, but as yet prices have given way
very slightly. There has been something of a relapse in Pork aud
Lard, but other Provisions are well held, and in Pork there are
speculative buyers at the decline, sugars have ceased to advance,
and have become dull.
In Coffee, early in the week there wus a
large movement, to the trade, importers yielding materially to re¬
duce stocks.
The same process has been gone through wTith yester¬
day and to-day in Fruits—large quantities of Raisins, Sardines and
Currents having been passed to the trade at private prices. We

Extraordinarily large a3 were the sales last week, they have been
slightly exceeded this ; the average sales each day were 80,000 bales
at advancing prices until yesterday, when, pending the quarterly stock¬
taking, there was a pause, and some irregularity in prices, the advance
iu the Bank rate of discount to 4^ per cent tending to increase the
quietness ; but on the declaration of the stocks to-day (which ody ex¬
ceeded the estimate by about 8,800 bales) the market again became
quite excited, and to-day’s sales amount to 35,000 bales, closing at Id
per lb. over yesterday’s prices, making an advance of 3d per lb. on the
week. It will be seen by the table above that the actual stock of Cot¬
ton is only 261,500 bales, against 618,480 bales at the same period last
year : and when the difference in prices at the two periods is taken into
account, the above advance would appear justifiable.

following report under date of the 6th inst:
The receipts of Upland cotton during the past week foot up 8,361
bales: Sea island 88 bales, and Domestic 246 bales. The exports dur¬
ing the same period were 7,642 bales of Upland, 90 bales of Sea Island,
and 282 bales of Domestics, leaving a stock on ban j and on shipboard,
not closed, of 1,424 bales of U pland, and 20 bales of Sea Island. During
the past week the cotton market has been very firm, and within the
last few days the lower grades have advanced 2@3c per lb, and the
finer qualities from l@2c.
The offerings are unusually small. Good
qualities meet with ready sales. In consequence of the low state of the
rivers the receipts have been very light. Very few good fair lots are placed
cn the market. Oidinary we quote at 88(3)36c, low' middling at 37@39c,
and middling 40@41c. Receipts since September 30, 1865: Upland
3,681 bales, Sea Island 88 bales, Domestic 246 bales.
Exports since
September 30, 1865 : Uplands 23,482 bales Sea Island, 1422 bale3 do¬
mestics, 2,609 bales. Stock on band October 6, 1865 : Uplands 1,424

think, as a matter of course, prices of manufactured goods must
sympathise with the raw mate rial, although the mills have a six

and in some instances 37 cents is asked.
There is a steady demand
for goods, but no excitement.
.Standard goods are takeu as soon as
received by the agents, so that few accumulate. The product of
the mills is light owing to the continued drouth, but should the
pro*
duct increase goods must accumulate. The lower grades of goods
are ia rather better supply, and the advance is not iu
proportion to
that of standard grades.

has no superior, as it has saved millions of dollars to
the insured, and thousands of families from ruin.
Dividends are paid to policy-holders, thus enabling
them to continue their policies, if otherwise unable
to do so.
This favorable feature has been the means of saving
many policies that would have been forfeited for
want of means to continue them, and, in several in¬

from utter ruin.
