These bonds are a first mortgage upon the present
road, which has cost over Fifteen Million Dollars, and
whose net earnings are now double the entire interest
obligation it would assume.
The mortgage will be for an unusually small pro¬
portion of the value or income of the property, and
we therefore unqualifiedly recommend these boflds to
investors as in all respects a first-class security.
It is the purpose of the Company to issue, at pres¬

this mortgage, which we are now authorized to sell,
in lots to suit purchasers, at ninety and accrued in

Capital of the Company—Its Financial Condition.

The construction has been undertaken under financial
auspices

equally favorable. The citizens of the Midland Counties,
argent need of railroad facilities, have made subscriptions to its capital stock to the amount of six millions of dollars The feeling the
larger share
of these subscriptions have been made
by towns and cities in their corporate capacity, and for which
they paid iin town and city bonds
bearing 7 per cent interest These bonds being made by law exempt from local and
municipal taxation, when held in any county
which the road passes, the
Company have found ready sale for them at par and interest whenever they had occasion to use the through
proceeds,
thus rendering the subscriptions for which
they were given in payment, equivalent to cash. The Company, therefore, commence its
undertaking with a paid-up capital of $6,000,00 \ which, it is believed, is a
larger capital than any other railroad enterprise in this
country has ever been started with.
To provide the balance of the means that
may be found requisite to complete and equip the road, the
Company has adopted the
usual method of issuing bonds secured
by a first mortgage on its property. The mortgage has been executed. It
conveys to A. A.
Low, Geo. Opdyke and Delos De Wolf, in trust, to be held as
security for the bondholders, the entire road and its branches, from Oswego
to the State line of New-Jersey,
together with its equipment, franchise, and all other
property of the Company appertaining thereto.
It also provides that the issue of bonds shall be
strictly limited to $20,000 per mile of road actually built and in running order•

Protection against Speculators.
By express provision of law the towns and cities which have thus subscribed for and now hold a
-majority of the capital stock of
the Company, can never dispose of it, whatever the market
price may be, without the consent of a majority of the tax-payers in the
respective towns and cities. This virtually may be deemed a perpetual prohibition of
sale, whereby the control of the road will remain
forever with the farmers and business men
residing on its line, who, of all others, are the parties most interested ia its success, and thus
save it from the hazards of
being made a foot-ball of stock operators and speculators.

redemption, and without such surrender no further issue
of greenbacks can be made. We do not see, therefore, how
any speculative movement for an advance in gold could be
helped from this cause, especially as tho Clearing-House certi¬
ficates, which perform the functions of currency, are with¬
drawn as fast as the new greenbacks are issued. Some per¬
sons are
supposing that gold may receive an impulse upwards
from the issue of small greenbacks in place of the large notes,
which are to be called in. By a law which we have often
expounded in the Chronicle, small notes are more expansive
in their effects on the circulation than large notes.
For this
sreason these small notes produce a stronger effect on
the
price of gold. But it must be remembered that these small
notes are not ready for issue, and that they will not in all
probability be emitted in amounts large enough to produce
any appreciable expansion on the circulation or any advance
in the price of gold.
However this may be, the two facts we have noted are very
significant and suggestive. In no other country than this
would the spectacle be seen, within a week or two after the
most disastrous and disorganizing panic, of an easy money
market on one side and a general stimulus developing itself
in stocks, in gold and in government bonds.

scarcely be wrong in deducing from these facts, and from
others too obvious to mention, the most hopeful augury for

The culmination of this speculation was attended with cir¬
cumstances by no means creditable to the business morals of
Wall street. When it was discovered that the combination
had drawn the street into engagements involving enormous
losses, and that the game was a heavily losing one, there was
in many cases an effort to evade or directly repudiate con¬
tracts ; street honor, hitherto the chief protection of Wall
street dealings, being regarded as secondary to the preserva¬
tion of something from the common wreck of fortunes. We
do not pretend to judge whether the gambling character of
the operations does not in some measure palliate these
evasions of contracts; but we do hold that it is a matter of
profound humiliation and regret that houses of fair standing
in the financial community, and entrusted with important
transactions by the public, should be found willing to engage
in operations leading 'to such dishonorable expedients for
self-protection.

weeks that the dangers connected with excesses in specula¬

wholly factitious and unnatural. A ring of specu¬
lators, with large capital and equal daring, undertook
to control the entire supply Jof gold upon the market.
Their
operation was not based upon any natural tendency of the
premium; on the contrary, the common conviction that the
piice of gold must decline had induced very general sales for
future delivery ; and it was upon these transactions, coincident
with the bent of the market, that the clique undertook to force
the premium in an opposite direction. Thus the speculation
was an effort to coerce the gold market against its natural
direction; and to this circumstance it owes its failure and its
ruinous results. The more the clique advanced tbe price, the
more unreasonably high did it appear, and the greater became
the apparent inducement to sell. Through this sort of manoeuvering, the time contracts to deliver gold were swelled to
an amount immensely exceeding

that many

time money could hardly be borrowed
upon any terms. Many of the dealers in gold being at the

standing engagements in the Stock Exchange, the panic in¬
stantly spread to the stock market. Stocks fell to such au
extent as to exhaust the margins on which they were carried
and were consequently thrown upon the market in immense
blocks, precipitating a further decline, and involving the weak¬

The extent of injury

resulting is but very partially indicated by the failure
of several prominent stock houses. Large numbers of private
holders of securities have been brought to the verge of ruin,
and their stock has been transferred at panic prices to the
hands of a wealthier class, who are about the only parties
benefited by the disaster. Operations [naturally tending to
these results cannot be too severely condemned. They are
demoralizing tand mischievous to the last extreme ; and those
who engage in them cannot be expected to receive tbe confi¬
dence awarded to prudent men of business.
If the Wall street community cannot feel itself secure
against the recurrence of these dangerous excesses, it is clear
that prudent firms must recognise the necessity of protecting
themselves and their customers by broader “ margins ” upon
speculative transactions than have been hitherto accepted.
In times, when speculation was less rampant and fluctuations
less sudden and extreme, a margin of 10 per cent might be
deemed an adequate protection; but in these days, when
cliques of immense wealth undertake to make money inac¬
cessible by “ locking up ” millions of currency, or to acquire
absolute control of the gold premium by buying up the entire
supply on the market, or to similarly control the capital
stock of corporations, it is evident that double that amount of
margin is no more than prudence requires. The inadequacy
of the current rate of margins is of itself a temptation to
artificial speculation; for it affords an assurance that when
prices have been moderately forced down, so as to impair
margins, a considerable amount of stock will be thrown upon
the market. An increase of margins would call for enlar ged

The excitement in the stock market has amounted to absolute

panic.

Speculative brokers, seeing a timid feeling among the banks
generally, growing out of the prospect of a
threatening corner in gold, began early in the month to assault the
stock market with much vigor, and, there
being none who cared to
resist them, stocks declined heavily throughout the list.
Some of
the large holders being thus weakened, the market the more
readily
yielded under the general wreck of confidence growing out of the
culmination of the great gold speculation on the
24th, and prices fell
to an extent ranging between 6
ppr cent on Reading and 53 per
and in the market

New York Central,

The great feature of the month has been the extraordinary specu¬
lation in gold under which the price was run up from 133J at the

opening to J62* on the 24th. On
into the market with proposals to

the latter dale the Treasury came
sell on the following day $4,000,000 of coin; with the result of breaking down the price, within a few
minutes, to 133. Amid the excitement of the enormous transactions

of the 24th, transactions were made

involving enormous losses to
repudiated ; upon others the parties
failed; and of the remainder, covering many millions, there remained
at the clcte of the month a large amount unsettled. Amid the con¬
fusion resulting from the culmination of the speculation, the Gold
Exchange Bank became involved, suspended, and was thrown into
the hands of a receiver, large amounts of the funds of dealers being
in that way lied up. The experience of the month teaches a sad
lesson of the demoralization of gold speculation, and is likely to tell
hereafter upon the excesses of Gold Room operations.

Hides opened fairly active, but close
quiet at the advance.
Leather in but moderate demand.
Skins quiet.
Petroleum has declined, but closes
very active, with the
decline recovered. Oils have been dull and weak.
Naval stores are in very small stock for the
season, a pro¬

longed drought having prevailed in the producing districts,
has advanced, with more doing, but the

and spirits
turpei^ne
close is quiet.

East India goods rule firm, but no

important transactions
reported this week except in Manila hemp.

Metals have be^n inactive and

no

unchanged. There seems
speculation in either article to be named under this

head, and the wants of the trade are limited.
In wool quietness has succeeded to the
large business done
last week, and prices are without essential
change. There are
more symptoms at the close of an
early revival of demand.
Hops have been in brisk export demand for new, and prices
rule very firm. Receipts of new thus far are not half as
large
as

last

season.

Whiskey has fluctuated widely, with considerable activity,

Under these influences the

Tuesday; middling uplands closing on
28c, against 27^c on Friday last. But continued

that

day at
large arrivals and favorable crop accounts, with little anima¬
tion at Liverpool and our own
spinners very cautious buyers,
checked this upward
tendency, and during the last two days
the downward movement has
be^un again, the market clos¬
ing to night weak and heavy at 27^c for middling uplands.
On Saturday last the market was
quite active, with an
advance on middling and low
middling of |c, and on
the lower grades of £c,
middling uplands closing at
27fc and ordinary at 25c. Monday there was less doing
but prices were £c better on all
grades above ordinary •
Tuesday was more quiet, holders, however, offering thei1
stock freely but buyers
being cautious; good ordinary de¬
clined £c. Wednesday
middling was
off, and at the de¬
cline, with favorable European advices, there was more.doing
especially for export. Thursday the export business was good,
but low middling was
^c lower. To day prices have further
declined £c, but at the decline there has been a fair business
done by both spinners and
shippers. For forward delivery
there has been considerable
activity, but mainly for the present
month ; rates are
generally lower and quite irregular. The
total sales of this description
reach 6,450 bales (all low mid¬
dling, or on the basis of low middling, except as hereafter
noted), of which 2,300 bales were for October, 450 bales to

These

figures show a fact known to all in the trade, that our manu¬
facturers have, during’the
[past two years, been running on a very
small margin, and in
many cases at a loss; and further, that with the
advance of cotton during the summer
to 35c no corresponding advance
in goods took
place, so that in the decline of cotton, agents have been
able to hold with considerable firmness.
At present the
is weak and trade is
slack, buyers taking

66,280 bales, of which 11,040 bales are on
specu^tiou, 17,100 are
declared fur export, leaving 28,090 bales to the trade.

unusually high tides to occur at about this

quite an extensive removal of goods from exposed places

their forebodings.

of activity in Molasses and Coffees, and the sales in both have
been large.

GROCERIES.
Friday Evening, October 8, 1869.

The week has been one of
very little animation in the
markets for groceries, until just at the close.

By the serious interruption of the main lines of travel and
transportation in the central portion of the State from the
late freshet, business received a check
which, though tem¬
porary, was perceptibly felt.
In addition to this, the high
rates of
freight westward, now rendered more injurious by
arrangements which amount to




a

discrimination in favor of

here is very light, and the

almost altogether. These are the better

The lower grades meet with
very little inquiry.
Piices are quite firm, and there has been
more

close, the sales during the last two days
amounting to some 2,000
