As far, however, as speculation in concerned, the present condition of uncertainty is calculated to keep it in check. Not much desire, if any, is shown to incur unusual risks and if the cautious policy is pursued which has been adopted since the Bank late was advanced to four per cent, there is no need for apprehension or anxiety.

There are, perhaps, more mercantile bills afloat, but they are not sufficiently numerous to exercise much influence over the money market. It is obviously owing to this cause that the rates of discount fall away as soon as the export demand for gold abates, and speculation assumes a diminished form. A fair quantity of gold has, however, been sent into the provinces of late to meet the wants of the com- munity usual at and from this fact it rather more active in spite this period of the year, inferred that country business is of the disappointing harvest. The result of the harvest, so far as is known at present, is not, however, generally unsatisfactory. Cereals, which promised well, are deficient; but on is the other hand, potatoes are a large and, on the whole, a sound crop; turnips, Swedes and mangolds will be abundant^ and the pastures, being in a luxuriant condition, will afford ample supplies of food for cattle until the severities of winter are felt.

A vary large proportion of car home supplies is arriving in poor condition ; and while the comparatively few parcels of sound produce are qnickly disposed of at remunerative quotations, millers have been operating with inferior qualities sell slowly at irregular prices. Good barley, suitable for malting purposes, is held at a rather high price, Tiz., 47a. and 483. per quarter; but there will be a large selection of useful produce on offer during the season, for which only moderate prices are likely to be obtained. The weather is just now very favorable for the work of preparing the land for autumn sowing, and satisfactory progress has already been made.

Since harvest the sales in the 150 principal markets have been 157,790 quarters, against 153,752 quarters and 75,374 quarters, the estimate for the whole kingdom being 631,160 quarters, against 615,000 quarters and 301,500 quarters in the two previous season respectively.

Minnesota State Tlonds.- At St, Paul, Minn., Oct. 13, the met in joint session to hear Governor Pillsbury's message in regard to the State railroad bonds. He said: "My individual preference is that every dollar of the debt represented Legislature hy the Minnesota State railroad bonds should be paid and interest. I believe that no course short of this the honor and integrity of a sovereign State so far as iu full, principal is consistent with relates to its own voluntary action; but inasmuch as tlie holders of tke bonds have upon their own motion proposed an adjustment on more favorable term,", an opportunity is presented for discharging the whole debt by partial payment without any necessary compromise of good name. This offer by the bondholders and the resulting act of ailjustment based thereupon, I regard as essentially a contract. The holders of these obligations submitted a proposition, wliich yoii| accepted by the passage of an act reciting the same, and providing means tor its performance. The Supreme Court, while condemning the raeansthus provided, has reached the end proposed by rendering the decision upon which legislative setr tlement was conditioned, so that while the compact remaioB binding on both parties, its faithful performance is reudere<l more obligatory and the mode of its performance eimpUUed by the action of our highest udicI ial authority." —So far as public sentiment in the State can be inferred from the tone of the country press and public utterances, it is as strongly opposed to the payment of the bonds as it was when the last proposition for settlement was voted down, two to one, at a popular election two years ago. Every county in the State that adopted resolutions upon the bond question condemned the plan of settlement by an extra session. In many counties in the southern part of the State special mass meetings have been held to denounce the Gtovernor for calling the session, to disapprove the plan of settlement, and instruct members of the Legislature to vote against it. the 13th Senator Pillsbury introduced in the Legislature a bill for the payment of the railroad debt at 50 cents on the dollar, nearly identical with that passed last winter, except that it omits the provision for a tribunal to decide the legality of the settlement, that point being covered by the recent Supreme Court decision. The bill was referred to the Finance Committee. The present amount represents 202 miles of railroad completed, as follows: 96 miles of Toledo & Northwestern Railroad in Iowa 20 miles of low.a Southwestern Railroad in Iowa. 70 miles of I>akota Central Railroad iu Dakota. miles of Rock River RuiUoad in Wisconsin. iles of Menomiuee River Railroad in Wisconsin ana Michigan. 4 203 miles at $13,000 per mile, amounting to $3,030,000. m Richmond & Danyille.—The following comparative stateof the earnings and expenses of the Richmond & Danville Railway Company for the month of August, 1881, has been published ^aross earnings.—.r-NcI earnings.— ment : Richmond & 1881.

Field, John H. Hall, and Mr. Bishop. For the Metropolitan—Vve&idient Russell Sage, Samuel Sloan and S. F. Kneeland. The committees met together, and considered the questions at issue. The basis of settlement proposed by Mr. Gould was as follows ; All claims held by the New York Company and the Metropolitan Company against the Manhattan shall be canceled forthwith, a full release being executed. In return for this the Manhattan will not enforce payment for the $13,000,000 of stock received by the lessor accounts, it is companies. Having thus squared all past proposed that a new start shall be had, the Man- hattan to continue as manager of the roads as heretofore, operating, however, under a raodifled lease, by the terms of which the earnings of the roads shall be apportioned among the three with a preference given the New York to the extent of 6 per cent. After the interest on the bonds of both roads has been paid, the Metropolitan and Manhattan are to be entitled to 4 per cent each, any surplus to be distributed pro rata. This was modified, and on Friday they agreed in substance that the Manhattan Company shall pay to the New York road 6 per cent of the gross receipts, and after the interest on the bonds has been paid the Metropolitan road is to take a dividend of 6 per cent and the Manhattan 4 per cent. Any surplus earnings will be divided jwo rata among the New York and Metropolitan companies. The agreement must be ratified by the stockholders. The Homestake Mining Co., of Dakota, has declared its thirty-eighth dividend (for September), amounting to $30,000, and making a total to date of $1,140,000.

Railroad and Xiscellaneons Stocks.—The stock market has been rather irregular, varying from day to day with the phases of the money market and the attitude of the great operators. Since the Ohio & Mississippi election, and the new deal in the elevated stocks and Western Union, Mr. Vanderbilt, Mr. Garrett and Mr. Gronld appear to be rather in opposition to each other, while the last-named is co-operating in some of his schemes with Mr. Sam Sloan, Mr. Cyrus W. Field, and in Western Union even with Mr.C. P. Huntington. Mr. Vanderbilt occupies an isolated position at present, but to-morrow he may change, and join with the others in advancing stocks. The railroad bnilding in the country is something quite unprecedented, even in 1 878. and this enormons activity cannot faU to add greatly to the bosiiMM of the old railroads, and also to make a sharp demand for money. A great many new enterprises have been undertaken in the past two months, and some of the old ones are appn^aching completion, the Texas & Pacific, for instance, which will be throogh by January.

The general exhibit showing the revenues and disbursements of the company for fifteen years from July 1, 1866, is brought forward in this report, and as a matter of book-keeping shows the nominal surplus to June 30, 1881, of 1516,616,468, out of which the stock dividend was declared to the amount of $15,526,590, leaving a nominal balance of $1,089,878, which may go on as the nest-egg for another stock dividend. The report says further "It is known to the stockholders that during the latter half of the fiscal year the company absorbed by a general contract the lines and properties of the American Union Telegraph Company and of the Atlantic & Pacific Telegraph Company. For this purpose the capital stock was increa.sea to $80,000,000, paying therefrom for the stock and bonds of the former company $15,000,000, and for that of the latter company $8,400,000. It was also agreed that the accumulated surplus of this company should first be capitalized and distributed to its stockholders. And for that purpose the proceeds of the Atlantic & Pacific Telegraph Company stock, standing charged in the surplus at $1,806,250, and $15,526,590 of the additional stock, were distributed pro rata to the stockholders. Hence, in the general statement now presented, the item of the Atlantic & Pacific Telegraph Company stock is taken out of the list of assets and charged with the funds appropriated out of net profits. The remainder of assets, now aggregating over sixteen and a half millions, is credited by the fifteen and a half millions which have been capitalized by the stock dividend. These assets have an actual value much greater than the cost value at which they * • deniin. were stated." The retiring members of the board are Joseph Harker, Cornelius Vanderbilt, Wilson G. Hunt, George M. Pullman, John R. Duff, Oliver H. Palmer, Samuel A. Munsen (dead), Anson Stager. Henry M. Phillips and Samuel F. Barger.

[Vol. JtXXlir. of directors, and various other protests. All these protests were submitted without argument. The inspectors, in announcing the result, stated that they had not included in their count bonds to the amount of $872,000, presented by Garrett & Sons but not registered in their name, preferring not to pass upon the question of their right to vote these bonds. The result was declared as follows: For Jay Gould, Russell Sage, Sidney Dillon and Solon Humphreys, 120,914 shares. For J. L. Donaldson of Baltimore, H. Pearson of London, F Jansen of Louisville and T. Harrison Garrett of Baltimwe* 153.552 shares. The latter were declared elected. The new board organized by the election of W. T.

The committee is composed of T MeClintock, Chairman; T. H. Garrett, Treasurer; and W.'w! Scarborough. The general features of the plan are the execution of a mortgage for $15,000,000, and the issuance of five per cent bonds in such quantities as may be required from time to time. The amount neces.sary to take the road out of the hands of the Receiver is stated to be $2,000,000, and this would be the limit of the first issue of bonds.

Stockholders representing 02,000 of the 70,000 shares of capital stock havesubscribed to the agreement lodged with the trust company, and have received the first instalment of $57 40 per share. The trust company has issued engraved certificates for the Panama stock surrendered, setting forth the beneficial interest vested in the respective holders under the agreement, and the amount of the instalment provided to be paid on surrender of the stock has been indorsed thereon. As subsequent instalments arepaid by the trust company to the holders of its beneficial certificates, the indorsement of said payments will be made upon their face. These ceitificates are transferable under the usual conditions applicable to stock of other railroad corporations j and such transfers, payments of successive instalments, and interest dividends, will all be made at the office of the trust company. Philadelphia & Readinff.- At the closing of the books there were 40,000 shares in Mr. Vanderbilt's name. It is not known which side he will favor in the election, but Mr. Gowen says positively that Mr. Vanderbilt will aid in constructing the line north from Williamsport to connect the system cf the New York Central directly with that of the Reading. Philadelphia will therefore become a terminus of the whole system of the New York Central Railroad, and the Reading will have the benefit of all these lines as distributors of coal. Mr. Bond and Mr. Gowen each claims that he will be successful in the January election. The Philadelphia Ledger says " In the approaching contest for the president and managers of the Reading Railroad only such stock can be voted as has been registered in the names of its holders for at least three calendar months prior to the election. All stock that may be transferred from now until January next, when the election is held, will be disfranchised. When the Reading election was held, on March 14 last, there were 683,663 shares of common and preferred stock altogether, bnt of this amount no less than 218,958 : shares were disfranchised by having been transferred within three months.

Tlurm»imur. ; : tables of rainfall, which we give to-day, we are surprised to find so little confirmation in most districts of the extreme have no doubt dry weather we hear so much about. was dry enough to make shedding very copious it but in the light of present facts, could it have been dry enough to kill the plant, or make any such loss in the crop as is now claimed? As these lignres are simply what We the instruments register, there can be no dispute about them. With the light tbey shed, one can scarcely help concluding that we must look elsewhere than to drought for the harm claimed in at least the Atlantic States and in Alabama. With regard to a good part of Tennessee, northern Louisiana, northern Texas and a part of Arkansas, there was a less rainfall, and in some porTemperations of those sections the drought was severe. ture was also everywhera very high in its extreme, making dry weather more harmful; but the average, though above the cool summer of last year, was not high except in a few of the sections mentioned where the rainfall was smallest. Now, if one will put these facts in connection with the excellent start and healthy condition in July, it will be a puzzle to make out the basis for the harm indicated in the Cotton Exchange reports we publish to-day. There is another feature which is worth mentioning, and which will grow in interest day by day. We refer to the nature and extent of the picking season. First, it began earlier than last year say a week to ten days— and has been far better. We have »o'. space to go into the investixation of this point fully, so ne do no more than barely suggest hoping the reader will pursue the matter for himit, .self. Take the Southwest, for instance, we will find that allowing for the earliHr start in picking, and in general the less namber of rainy davs, there must have been up to the first of October probably two weeks more of picking than We have grouped those States in the following, last year. giving the rainfall and days of rain for the three month.*), so that the reader may have before him data not onl^ of rainfall during the picking weeks, but during the previons weeka ot ~ drought, which, as stated above, were severest in these r — tions. ———— — y IKE CHRONICLE. 418 September. error in 1881. 1880. 1881. 1880 1881, 1880.

The reports about the character of the weather during ScDtembcr are about equally divided, one-half of the correspondents glvliig unfavorable accounts and one-hiilf favorable. Those rejiortiug unfavorably complain chiefly of wind and lain storms, affecting more the quality than the quantity of the cotton, deteriorating the grade and making It stained. All, without exception, represent the daiiiago done by drouth and rust to be quite as serious as estimated iu last month's reports, while the new feature in this month's replies is the almost general complAlnt of damage by storms and worms. From a few counties the top crop is reported as almost entirely destroyed by caterpillars, while most of the correspondents state that worms have only just now made their appearance and have done but little damage so fur. The cotton Is stated to be fruiting well by 21, while 41 report the contrary. Twentysix reply that the plant lias retained its squares and bulls and 30 that it hai not. The proportion of the crop already picked Is estimated by 13 at one third, by 22 at one half, by 15 at two thirds, and by 11 at seven eighths. The estimates of the yield per acre vary from 200 pounds to 750 pounds of seed <*tton, the average of the reports indicating a much better yield than last year's. The total yield, as compared with last year's, is estimated by 30 to be 50 per cent less, l)y 27 to be 33 per cent less and by 5 to be 25 per cent less. This report covers Northern, Middle atid Southwestern Georgia, (being all of Georgia except the twenty-eight counties in charge of the Augusts Cotton Exchange) and the entire State of Florida.

Farley and R. C. Wood. — Georgia. 82 replies from 61 counties. The weather has been dry and warm during the past month, and favorable to picking, but unfavorable to the advancing, maturing and growing of fie bolls. The plant has been retarded by drouth, and injured in the sandy lands by rust, and all over the State the young an4 tender late planting hjw been injured by worms. The plant is small and well formed considering its size. About three eighths of the crop havo been gathered. The yield will probably average 100 pound-* of lint cotton to the acre— compared with last year's, about 15 per cent loss. Florida. —23 replies from 12 counties.

Average date Sept. 30. About all our correspondents report the weather as hot and dry in the half of the month. After the 18th there were showers, and lu some cases heavy rains and windstorms. Eighteen reports state the weather as favorable and 27 as unfavoralile. The miyorlty specify, however,, that It was favorable for picking, but was unfavoral>le for any growth ordevelopmeutof the plant, and that the rains came too late to do any material good. The reports of damage by drouth are almost universal, though many correspondents report this damage to havo maluly occurred before September. Only 6 report damage by worms, aud not to any great extout 1 reports 10 percent. The damage by storms has been mainly to the quality of crop, though some was blown out. Tho plant according to most of our corre8p<mdents, though small, fruited well in the early jiart of the season, but, owing to the incessant hot weather and want of moisture, it became stuuted and stcippcd growing, especially on light high-land soils. Last month hardly any progress is reported. Only 8 correspondents report the plant as having retained Its fiult well, and even these state that many young squares were shed. The balance universally report great shedding and drying up on all •ioept stroufi and bottom ItanXa. Five correspondents report one fourtu first ; * November report. The October report states it in such a way that wo cannot average it. The average amount of crop picked is not given by the Exchange, so we have madu nil average of the figures as given. As Illustration, take South XXXin. According to the above we must conclade that there is some many of the reports. In the Atlantic States we see that although the picking season began earlier there is as much left to pick as there was last year, and yet the estimate 2-18 317 4-66 4-41 4-49 2-83 of the crop is from 15 to 40 per cent less. But we have not 14 11 15 7 16 9 space to analyze these statements further, and only give them 2-77 4-92 15-22 4-76 11-71 7-04 as suggestions to our readers while awaiting further developments. 13 19 19 15 8 16 August.
