INVESTMENTS IN SEPTEMBER.
Tlie month of

September has been marked by the quiet which

usually pervades the market for investment securities at this
season.
The demand for money at the West and South to move
the large crops in those sections has caused a heavier drain on
our banks for legal tenders than for several years past, and with
signs of an active money market during the next three months
the inquiry for investment bonds has been
comparatively
limited.

question of paying arose there was no party
in the community pecuniarily interested
in having the
obligations honored—the general interest was to escape taxation
With municipal debts in the Middle and Eastern States the case
is quite different, as the bonds are largely held within the States
where they are issued; and if .the debt of New York city, for
instance, should be repudiated to-day, by far the most numerous
class of losers would be the savings bank depositors, whose
security for their earnings consists in those bonds which consti¬
tute a heavy item in the assets of the banks.

shape the matter falls out, whether as to the holders of State,
city or county bonds, or of railroad bonds, or of mortgages on
western real estate, it is obvious that when all the creditors of
a
community are non-residents there arises an inducement among
the dishonest portion of the population to legislate against the
creditor, or otherwise to avoid their obligation if possible. The
force of law where its effectual application is practicable, or a
high sense of honor among the people, must be relied on in such

$135,500

are held for Agricultural College.
The
sinking fund, Aug. 1., 1876, was $135,932.
Virginia.—These amounts are exclusive of
bonds held by Literary fund and Sinking fund.
The Funding act of i871 provided tha4: coupons

of the funded bonds should be receivable for
State taxes.
For 2-3 of the old bonds a new bond
was
issued, and fer the other % a deferred

certificate

given (as the proportion due by West
Virginia). The act of 1872 amended that of 1871
by not allowing coupons to be received for taxes.
