We, the undersigned, cordially recommend these
seven per cent mortgage bonds of the St. Louis and
Iron Mountain Railroad as a good security. The reve¬
nue of the road will be large, and the administration

of the affairs of the Company is in capable and exper¬

long bond always commands a much higher price than a short
one.
It is safe to assume that during tha next thirty years, the rate of interest in the
United States will decl ne as it has done in Europe, and we have a r ght to expect that
fuch six per cent securities as these will be held at as high a premium as those of this
Government, which, in 1857, were bought in at from 20 to 23 above par. The export
demand alone may produce this result, and as the issue of a private corporation, they are
beyond the reach of political action.
It is well known that

a

Company believe that their bonds, at the present rate, are he cheapest security
market, and the right to advance the price at any time is reserved. Subscriptions

parted with their bonds to foreigners they did so for a con¬

than the securities.
Wore they mistaken ? The obligations
have been sent out mainly in the
way of settlement of trade
balances ; so that the country has reciived in
exchange actual
capital in the form of raw materials, merchandise £hd produce.
These importations, which but for the
expor^eff securities
could not have been made, have become a pkrt of our actual
possessions, promoting enjoyment, sustaining and employing
population, and aiding the developement of the country and
the reproduction of capital.
Will the use of the capital thus
received in exchange for our bonds yield a sufficient return to
pay the interest and compensate us for the depreciation at
which the bonds were sold ?
If it will, the exchange is not
a bad
bargain. The fact of such an enormous amount of

8*76,000,000 consists of stocks, which carry no
obligation to pay principal, but only convey to the holder a
proprietary interest and entitle him to a share of the profits
of the
corporation issuing them. The balance of $862,000,000
is made
up of bonds, specifying an obligation to pay a given
amount of
principal with interest. There is an important
difference in the bearing of these two classes of securities
upon
our financial
interests. The stocks take nothing out of the
country but what has been earned ; and the remittance of div¬
idends upon this class of
investments, being only proportioned
to the
prosperity of the corporation issuing the stock, cannot have occurred without some substantial cause. The indus¬

the continuance of so defecti e a plan. It may be very convenient
for the purpose of deciding bets, but it is a misstat ment, to call a
total, which omits a third of the product of one section of the coun¬

result of their labors. The returns are not complete (that is, they
are from only 475 mills), but with the help of the census of 1860
we shall be able to reach satisfactory results.
It appears, then,
that the number of mills and consumption in the United States in

in the census) consumed 7u3,950 bales in I860, and the returns of
423 mills in the same States this year show a consumption of 656,964 bales. Now if we estimate the mills which have not reported

declined, but it is probable that the comparative steadi¬
market, and the satisfactory price now being offered, will
have the effect of attracting
larger supplies than we shall require.
Although a heavy fall has taken place during the last two months, tie
average price of English wheat is still as
high as 66s. lid. per quarter
With the 81st of August the wheat season
may be said to have been
brought to a close. We have, therefore, just entered on the new sea¬
son, with a price for wheat much more satisfactory to the consumer
and with a crop, which, if realised at
present rates, will yield a large
return of profit to the
grower.
The average price of English wheat
[n England and Wales in 1867-8 was 68s. 4fd., against 60s.

1866-7; 46s. 5d. in 1865-6; 40s. ‘2£d. in 1864-5, and 40s.

coi.siderable inroad into our new
crop, as meat, vegetables and potatoes are likely, or rather certain, to
be dear curing the winter months, and as there will bo thirteen months
to (lie present wheat season, should the next harvest be gathered at
the average period (f the year, we chall still require a large foreign
importation in order to meet our wants, and to keep the price of wheat
at its present level.
In the season ending August 29,1868, we imported
37,320,000 cwt. of wheat and flour, and until the prospect of a good
harvest became pretty certain, the magnitude of our foreign receipts
served as the cnly check to an upward movement in prices. The
accumulation of foreign wheat at the outports has not been considerable,
owing to the enormous consumption in progress. Unless,therefore,we
receive large supplies from abroad, and to an equal extent with those
of last year, we cannot expect that at the close of the present season
rdie supply of uncoueumed Engfieh wheat will be very considerable.
Slight causes would then be likely to'nffeet ihe market, and untoward
weather would be certain to produce much excitement in the trade. It
is, however, a satisfactory circurastauce that there is every probability
of our receiving large supplies from abroa ’, while Fiance, which has
grown moie than sufficient for her own consumption, will not be a
competitor with ourselves either at Odessa or at New York. The
positiou of the trade is decidedly moie assuring, but one good harvest,
though universal, cannot be expected to make bread cheap. Bread
will not probab'y become as low in price as in 1863 arid 1864, until the
stocks of old produce in reseive throughout the world are larger than

present seems to be an appropriate period to [refer to a fact
one of my letters written in the earlier months of the year.
I had remarked that the quantity of wheat afloat to the United King¬
dom was as much as 2,000,000 of quarters, to which exceptions were

by numbers of your readers. The correctness of the statement
ment can be readily .seen now.
From the above table, relating to the
imports and exports of u heat, it will be observed that in the twelve
months ending August 29, 1868, our imports reached the heavy total
of 36,215 905 cwt.
Now, we will allow 4cwt. to a quarter, mak:ng
the quarter many pounds above the average.
Calculating, therefore,
at 504 lb. to the quarter, the number of quarters imported iu 1867-8
That quantity allows 2,000,(00 of quarter^
was rather over 8,000, 00.
for each quarter of the year, and as many vessels take two and three
months sailing from port to port, it will be observed that 2,000,000 o^
quarters of wheat, or even more, must have been afloat at one time

[September 19,1868.

The market this week has been

irregular, and much of the
considerably lower than the close last Friday, Middling
Uplands, on Tuesday, having touched 25 cents. This was
mainly the result of continued, liberal receipts at the ports,
with offerings at low rates on the
piers and to arrive, rather
time

than allow the cotton to
go

into store. Since Tuesday, how¬
with better Liverpool accounts, smaller arrivals South,
rather less favorable
crop accounts, a very small stock here
and offerings on the
spot insufficient to- meet the daily demand,
there has been a decided
reaction, prices closing about the
same as a week

goods has sympathized with the cotton market, prices having
declined materially ; but buyers, even at the decline,
being
unwilling to purchase largely. There has been a fair business,
however, though by no means active for the season. Sales of
cotton for the week foot
up 10,013 bales, of which 5,544 bales
were taken

operated to a large extent. Towards the close of the week, however,
there was less fi mness, with less business, and prices have somewhat
receded from the highest point.
The only change, however,is confined
to a reduction of about ^d. in American and East Indian produce, the
fall being more prominent iu the formei. The total sales of the week
are 69,190 bales, of which speculators have taken 6,160 bales, exporters

slightly depressed by the Rio telegram, and there is also
probably a slight reaction after the large sales of the two
previous weeks. Maracaibo Coffee has been more activa than
usual. Sugar has declined a fraction and Molasses advanced
1@2 cents; sales have not been very large of either.
Imports of the week have been quite limited. There have
been no receipts of Rio coffee at this port, but some 11,000
bags have come to hand at Baltimore. The principal re¬
ceipts at New York have been of Maracaibo. The Pacific
mail steamer Henry Chauncey brings 2,936 half chests of tea.
Receipts of sugar and molasses continue to be very small, par¬
ticularly of Cuba sorts. Full details of the imports at the
several ports for the week and since Jan. 1 are given below
under the respective heads.
