OFFER FOR SALE, THROUGH US, THEIR

FIRST MORTGAGE THIRTY YEAR SIXPER CENT. COUPON BONDS,

Principal and Interest Payable inGoldCoin, inNewYorkCity.They are in sums of $1,000 each,- with semi-annual golil coupons attached,

NINE PER CENT. UPON THE INVESTMENT.These bonds, authorized by the Pacific Railroad Acts of Congress, are issued

only as the work progresses, and to the same extent only as the Bonds granted bythe Government, and represent the preferred claim upon the whole valuable prop¬erty furnished by Subsidies, Donations, Stock subscriptions, etc. They-possessspecial assurances and advantages ' over other corporate assurances, and are des¬tined to rank among the best securities in the world.

1.—They are the prior lien upon a valuable and productive Railroad line, inwhich three times their utmost issue has been invested.

IT.—The road is peculiarly exempt from competition, and must form the TrunkLine of the North American Continent.

III.—Much the hardest part of the work is now done ; what remains is easyand inexpensive,*and will be rapidly carried through.

IYj—The surplus earnings, after the payment of all expenses and interest lia¬bilities, during the current year, will exceed one million dollars in gold.

V.—The Bonds, like the revenues of the road, are. payable in coin—principalas well as interest,

This agreement has the sanction of the Act of Congress, and being madeunder the Specific Contract Acts of California and Nevada, is valid and binding inlaw.

As these Securities possess elements of unusual safety, stability and profitthey will, without doubt, be actively dealt in by both European and home invest¬ors, and a marked increase in their value may be looked for long before the com¬pletion of the great enterprise. .

Conversions of Government Securities into Central PacificFirst Mortgage Bonds,

now realize for the holders from TWELVE TO EIGHTEEN PER CENT.ADVANTAGE, with the same rate of interest.

Bonds can be obtained through the subscribers directly, or through responsi¬ble Banking Agencies.CD o

The profits of the Company from 1858 to 1862were large, and after paying interest on Bonded Debtyielded over 15 per cent, to the shareholders, those otthe fiscal year ending 30th June, ISO?, were $547,187 76,being more than double of the liability for annual in¬terest, including tlie issue of the 2d Mortgage Bonds,and earned during a most unfavorable seasou owingto the failure of Southern crops.We are prepared to receive bids for the above Bonds

CONGRESS AND THE CURRENCY.The question of chief importance in commercial circles is

the prospective changes which the currency is likely to under-, go during the coming winter. Congress will meet nextThursday, and it is reported that a joint resolution is to hepassed to prevent further contraction of;the greenback issuesand to take away the pow er which the act of April, 1806, coirferred on the Secretary of the Treasury for that purpose.The arguments in favor of this rumor are first that contrac¬tion is unpopular in the West. Secondly that it has beenhitherto conducted too severely and too spasmodically, hav¬ing also been omitted when it should have been done, and donewhen it should have been omitted; and, thirdly, thac this con¬traction so conducted has brought on the paralysis of businessunder which the whole country has for some time past beensuffering. There are even those w ho contend that the opposition to contraction will organize a strong movement for inflation of the currency by enlarged issues either of green¬backs, or of National bank notes.These reports have produced considerable influence at the

Stock Exchange where they harmonize sufficiently with the

desires of a multitude of speculators to command easy cre¬dence. Our readers, however, need, not be surprised if theyfind that the Senate will be firm in its refusal to acquiesce inany project looking toward* inflation. The House also if weare not misinformed will be much less disposed to ventureon the expansion of the currency and the depreciating of ourstandard of value than might be expected from the recentutterances of Messrs. Butler and Stevens, and from the re¬

ports of credulous or interested persons who profess to havecanvassed opinions with some care.

THE FORTHCOMING REPORT OF THE COMPTROLLER OF THECURRENCY.

There are three points which, no doubt, will receive spe¬cial attention in Mr. Hulburd’s report of the past year’s operjations of the National banks. The first is the elasticity andstability which these institutions have conferred on the finan¬cial machinery of the country. It is noteworthy thatduring the whole period in which the National system hasbeen fairly at w'ork, the public credit has been exempt fromthose alternations of chills and fever which were so

violent and so common under the crude, semi-organizedbanking machinery of former days. If any one doubtsthis he has only to look at the state of the money market,and at the actual rates of interest current during the twoperiods. Whenever any spasm has supervened, as was thecase a few7 w eeks ago, the phenomenon has been clearly trace¬able to special causes, such as the perturbing influence ofsome large Treasury negotiation, the sudden locking upof currency in the Government vaults, or to some othermovement exterior to the banks, and beyond the scope oftheir purview. Nor is this all. Such spasms have not onlybeen rare in their occurrence, arid special in their origin; buttheir violence has been checked by the elastic controlexerted by our bank machinery, and their extent has been con¬fined to a small area, so that stringency ceased, monetary easecame back, and the equilibrium of financial affairs wasrestored before the trouble had time to reach far beyond thebanking centres. This stability and recuperative elasticityhas no doubt been in part attributable to other forces besidesthese originating in the banks. But the merit which is duethe banks is wTell worthy of intelligent and careful appre¬ciation.The second point which we cite is the profits of the

banking business. There is no doubt that these have beenover-estimated. During the closing years of the wrar theprofit of fcorporatiuns and private individuals who heldGovernment bonds was swelled in consequence of the ap¬

preciation of these securities in the market. The banksshared these advantages with insurance companies and

614 THE CHRONICLE. [November 16, 1867.other moneyed organizations. But it would be easy toshow that while in 1865, and in the early months of 1866,these and similar sources of gain conferred on some skil¬fully managed banks the power of making large dividends.There has been a great change during the last 15 or 18months. And the tendency is rather to decrease than toaugment the facilities of making large profits for the stockholders of our National banks. This point will we hear bebe so elaborated by the Comptroller as to answer the argu¬ments of the enemies of the [banks, who contend that thelarge profits justify a rate of taxation on thesednstitutionswhich is incommensurate with their real gains and beyondthe ability of many of them to pay. As it is believed thatif the national banks should be taxed out of existence thestate institutions with all their abuses would certainly revivethe aspect of the bank question, is well worthy of all theconsideration Mr. Ilulburd can give to it.The scheme of increasing the bank circulation beyond its

present minimum of 600 millions is strongly urged. Itwill, however, be refused the countenance or sanction ofconservative men both in and out of Congress. Waiving thediscussion of this and other topics of interest we will referto but one point more—that of the reserve. The arrange¬ments respecting these reserves are complicated, and may,perhaps, be capable of simplification. It is well known thatin England the reserves of the banks are kept to a greatextent in the Bank of England, and the great outcry lbr asuspension of the Bank Charter restrictions which arose in1847, 1857 and 1866, was founded, as we have repeatedlyshown, on the circumstance that the Bank of England beingthe custodian of the reserves of the other banks, theseinstitutions when they sustain a ran, have to fall backon Threadneedle street, and the Bank of England bythe suspension of the Act can issue an indefinite amount ofnotes and thus meet the drain. It has been contended withjustice that the English system would be improved if thebanks were all compelled to hold their own reserve and toreport its amount every week, together with the aggregateliabilities it represents. Our own system of reserves is morecomplicated than that of England. But if it is also moresafe, it may be the better as we said, for some modifica¬tions. Its complicated character may be seen from the factthat there is one rule lor New York City, another rule forcertain large cities outside of New York, and a third anddifferent rule for all the rest of the banks in the country.As to the banks in this city, they are required to keep are-serve equal to 25 per cent, of their aggregate circulationand deposits. This reserve they can make up as follows:Two-tilths of it must be in gold and greenbacks or com¬pound notes, and the remaining three-fifths or any partthereof may be in 6 per cent, certificates.

The banks of the 16 large cities whose names we printedlast week are also obliged to keep a reserve of 25 per cent.,but this reserve has to be distributed thus: Two-fifthsmust be in gold, greenbacks, or compound notes.; five tenthsmay be held in 6 per cent, certificates, or may be depositedsubject to sight draft in the redeeming bank in New York;aid one-tenth may be held in three per cent, certificates.All banks situated in other places besides New York and

tl*3 16 other central cities, must keep a reserve of 15 percent, of their circulation and deposits, and of this reservenot less than two-filths must be held in the bank in gold,greenbacks or compounds, while the remaining three-fifthsmay either be on deposit with its redeeming bank in NewYork, or one of the other central cities, or it may be held bythe bank itself in gold, greenbacks, compounds, or three percent, certificates.The needless intricacy of this system is almost wholly due

to one prolific cause—namely, the anxiety of the hanks toearn interest on their reserves. We have often expresseddisapproval of this weak feature of the national system,and are not without hope of seeing it gradually disappear,to be. replaced by the simple provision that the reserve ofno bank shall consist of anything but cash actually in hand,or cash in the hands of its redeeming bank. And by cashwe mean lawful money ready to be paid out at any momentif called for. The change should be gradually, notviolently made.* And meanwhile, xve must make the bestofour composite system as it stands. In the existing state ofthe law it is impossible to lay down any general rule as tothe amount of its reserve which any bank may judiciouslyand safely keep in an interest-bearing form. In this, .as inthe other things which go to make up prosperous manage¬ment, a sound conservatism is seldom out of place. Theban ke? should now forget that he has functions and respon¬sibilities, the scope of which reaches far beyond his own in¬stitution, or his own state. The National banks have manyfoes, but perhaps the most dangerous are those who wouldevade the salutary restrictions, or overleap the indispensablesafeguards with which the law hems them in.

OUR DEBTS AND RESOURCES.On former occasions we have remarked upon our largely

increased taxation, with the purpose of enforcing upon ourlegislators the necessity for the strictest economy in allappropriations for Federal, State and municipal governments.A long and costly war with the indefinite issue of papermoney has engendered a spirit of extravagance which mustbe checked. Statements of our present burdens tend to thisend ; They convey a forcible, practical desson which is muchneeded at this time. And yet, notwithstanding the useful¬ness of such statements, incorrect inferences are sometimesdrawn from them. Because we are in debt some jump tothe conclusion that we are bankrupt. We notice for instancethe tables we prepared and published sometime since, show¬ing the rates of taxation in our leading cities, recently copiedby a correspondent of the London Times, who called themofficial, and based arguments noon them to show our inabilityto pay our debts. It is hardly necessary to say that suchconclusions find no justification in the facts stated. Weadmit that we are in debt, and compared with anti-war timesvery heavily in debt, and we insist that there is great needfor economy; we claim too that our tax machinery is veryunphilosophical and cumbersome; and yet our ability anddisposition to pay all just obligations are beyond question.The experience of the last two years in raising revenue,

and consolidating and reducing our Federal debt, bring outin strong light the resources and capabilities of the country.It was a question in the minds of Europeans in 1864whether a democratic people would submit to be taxed; nocue doubts it now. Ii was argued then that our burden wasmore than we could bear, and yet we have paid all our ex¬penses, and reduced our aggregate debt from 2,874 millionsin the fall of 1865, to 2,491 millions as given in the laststatement. It was claimed that though wc might workthrough our long debt, our short obligations would surelytry us; but, on the contrary, since 1865 the temporary loansand debt certificates have disappeared from the schedulealtogether, the greenback currency has been curtailed from463 millions to 357 millions, and the Seven-Thirties from860 millions to 664 millions, as also appears in the lastmonthly statement. AY hen we remember that this is thehistory of the period immediately succeeding a long war,and among a people unused to taxation, and with no experience in raising large revenues, all will admit that we lordlydeserve to be called bankrupt,

$or are our city and State taxes more than we can veryeasily? and if they are necessary, very willingly hear. Allthat our people wish to be convinced of is that they are notbeing plundered, and that their public servants are encono*mizing their resources. The latter, they insist, shall be doneand the former avoided if possible. A moment’s reflection asto the aggregate taxable property in New York State showsthat with honesty and economy in the future there is noground for fear. We cannot, however, agree with a recentwriter on our State finances, who attempts to show that adebt is not a debt, and the inference from whose remarks isthat we pay no taxes. In a former article, before referredto, we gave tables proving very decidedly that taxationamong us is no myth but a veritable reality. And yet theresources of the State, both in the actual aggregate of tax¬able capital, and in the productive industry of the population, are fully ample to sustain the burden. The assessorshave but to do their duty thoroughly, to obey the laws ofthe State just as they read, in regard to making assessmentsand an amount of taxable property would be found thatwould surprise everybody. The assessed valuation of suchproperty is 1866 amounted to $1,639,432,651. Nobody candoubt that the real value is three times that sum. A mo¬ments examination of the' State census of 1865 will make ourassertion more clear and difficult of contraverting.The total number of dwellings enumerated is 594,045, the

value of which was estimated at $977,121,378 ; besides66,114 to which no value was computed. If their value isreckoned in the same ratio, the sum total would be about$1,080,000,000. It is quite unnecessary to remark that the;dwellings enumerated could not be purchased at a fair salefor an amount equivalent to the entire assessed valuation ofthe State. The same census report gives us the value offarms in the State at $920,349,331; of live stock $127,072,-554; of tools and implements $21,181,099J-—a total of$1,068,602,984^. It would not be far out of the way to dew.clare that the property included in this category is alsoequivalent in value to the entire assessment of the State.The census also embraces returns from 24,527 manufactur¬ing establishments, with a capital of $227,674,187, and anaggregate value of product amounting to $403,609,877.There are no data relating to the capital employed in

commerce. Household furniture almost wholly escapes assessment, yet its aggregate value must be fully two thirdsof the value of dwellings. In 1863 there were insured inthe insurance companies doing business in this State, personal property to the value of $1,471,000,000, which nobodyneeds to be informed w as but a fraction of the entire amount.The aggregate of these few items is as follows :Value of dwellings $1,080,000,000Farms, &c 1,068,602,984Manufactories ... 227,674,187Insured personal property less amount actua-

- Hy assessed 1,138,000,000

Total. $3,514,277,171It will be seen from these imperfect statistics that the'

probable value of property in the State of Newr York can¬not be short of $6,000,000,000, and estimating the net profitat 6 per cent., we should have as the annual net income ofthe State 360 millions—a fair estimate of the resulting profitsafter deducting all direct taxes. The gross income it is ofcourse very difficult to indicate; but these figures showclearly enough that the production of the State is able tosustain a heavy volume of taxation.Now, if we enquire as to the annual burden upon this

property, wre shall find that the State of New York is chargedwith a direct fax for expenses of <Toyf>pmnent, maintenance

of schools, interest, etc., of about twelve millions of dollars,and that the local taxes probably amount to fifty millionsmore. It is proper, however, to remark that a considerableportion of this local taxation is for the purpose of defrayingthe principal of the indebtedness, and therefore cannotbe regarded as % permanent. In a short time the aggregate•will be less. As to the internal revenue and customs duties—of the former the amount paid by each inhabitant of theUnited States in 1866 was $8 80, and of the latter $5 15, ora total per capita of $13 95. According to the census oflast year the population of this State was 3,831,777, andhence the total payments of the State to the United Statesgovernment during that year was about 43 millions. Ofcourse there is a larger amount than this credited to theState, but as the most of these payments ultimately comeout of the consumer, the only correct mode of estimatingthe actual contribution is on the basis of population. rIheaggregate, therefore, of taxes, direct and indirect, paid bythe people of New' York in 1866 was about as follows:.State and school taxes $12,000,000Citv, county and town taxes 50,000,000_ ^ rv rv A A AAAInternal revenue and customs duties 53,000,000Total taxes, direct and indirect, paid $115,000,000This it will be seen would be equivalent to about twro

per cent, of the valuation above given. It is hardly neces¬sary to add anything further to show the ability of the Stateto meet its obligations promptly and easily.

MANUFACTURES, TARIFFS AND TAXATION.Time fails to bring relief to our manufacturing industries.

The depression which, for a time, wTas confined to one or tw7obranches is now becoming general, aud some anxiety is feltas to the result of the ordeal through which manufacturersare passing. We have repeatedly urged the importance ola limitation of production as the best means of bringingdowrn the prices of labor, and raw materials, and therebyenabling producers to meet the demand for goods at lowrerrates; but manufacturers appear to have regulated theirproduction by the capacity of their works rather than bythe capability of consumers; and the result has been thatthe supply of goods has been so far in advance of the demandas to place the determination of prices in the hands of buyers, causing upon many descriptions of goods very heavylosses. The current high prices of agricultural products,and the comparatively low prices of manufactures, suggeststhe conclusion that the wrar has left us with an undue pro¬portion of the capital and labor of the country employed inmanufactures, and an inadequate proportion engaged in theculture of the soil. BreadstufFs and animal food are essential4 v

to subsistence; and, though scarce and dear, they havehad to be bought in about the usual quantity ; butunder such circumstances a large portion of the communityare compelled to forego the supplying of other wants whichcontribute rather to comfort, luxury or adornment. Thiscondition of things ought to have had its due weight writhmanufacturers, inducing them to produce with a moderationcorresponding to the ability of consumers. They had, how¬ever, profited largely through a special demand for war pur¬poses, and, w ithout making due allowance for the cessationof this special consumption, have regarded the past consump¬tion as the measure for the present.This condition of things manufacturers have thought could

be remedied by the adoption of a tariff largely excludingforeign manufactures from our markets. Repeatedly, thetariff has been changed to suit these views ; but, in the faceof duties intended to be prohibitory, the imports havelargely increased and the value of domestic manufactures

616 THE CHRONICLE. [November 16 1867*

has steadily fallen. Yet notwithstanding the demonstratedfutility of this expedient for keeping up the prices of goods,the manufacturers appear to have the same confidence init as ever; for it is again proposed to apply to Congress foran increase of the duties on imports. At a recent meetingof the Manufacturers’ Association of Detroit,- the followingresolution wras adopted, and measures were taken for secu¬

ring the co-operation of other kindred societies-in holding anational convention of manufacturers at Cleveland, inDecember next:Resolved, That the tariff on importations cf foreign manufactures

should be revised so as to well protect home industiy against the un¬equal competition of the cheap capital and cheaper labor of foreign

, countries.It is much to be regretted that it should be in contemplation

to make any further demand of this character. With nothingto show in th ? way of beneficial results from repeated actsof protective legislation within the last five years, it issomewhat bold to ask Congress to repeat this fruitless ex¬

perimenting again. Changes in tariffs are always embar¬rassing to business; ar.d, in the present deranged conditionof trade generally, some care should be taken not to addunnecessarily to the prevailing embarrassments. Whilethe utmost possible consideration should be shown for suchan important branch of our national interests, it must beremembered that measures cannot be adopted which mustbe detrimental to all others. Consumers generally and thenon-protected interests have the same right to be protectedagainst high prices as the manufacturers have to ask pro¬tection against foreign producers. Already, the duties on

imports are very high; and there is no saying to what ex¬tent this may be carried if this periodical pressure uponCongress is to be in every case yielded to. Should an in.crease of customs duties again be awarded and the changeprove as unavailing as Dther additions to the tariff withinthe last five years, what reason is there for supposing thatCongress would not be asked to grant a still furtherincrease of duties? We think, it is a fair represen¬tation of public sentiment on this question toaffirm that the people have become tired of these perpetualpetitions for relief and desire that the manufacturers shouldbe left to feel that in future they must depend more upon

• their own prudent management and less upon Congressionalaid. The result of a further increase of the tariff would beto encourage an increased production, tending to keep uphigh wages, and to prevent a due decline in raw materials,the radical error in management which has contributed verylargely to the present depression of this interest.There is, however, a relief which it is within the province

of Congress to afford, and which may be granted upon thesoundest principles and with advantage to the community atlarge. The taxes upon domestic manufactures are a seriousburthen to our industries, and ought to be substituted byother and less embarrassing imposts. The duties amountto a heavy percentage upon the cost of the goods ; and, bythe charging of profit upon the consequent increased price, byeach dealer through whose hands they may pass, involve amaterial increase of cost to the consumer. On some pro¬ducts, made from materials already taxed, the duty is ex¬

ceedingly oppressive; and in not a few instances the assess

ing of the duties is accompanied with much inconvenience tothe manufacturer, arising from disputes and delays; while,in all cases, the increase in the price of the goods tends tolimit their consumption. There are large classes of goodswhich are consumed chiefly by the poorer classes, who haveno choice but to reduce their purchases in proportion to theenhanced cost. In the production of some articles foreignmaterials have to be employed subject to a heavy importduty; and in such cases the taxation is duplicated, rendering

it the more difficult for .the manufacturer to compete withlike foreign products. The duties on manufactures whenfirst imposed, wrere only adopted as a ready measure formeeting the pressing exigencies of the wrar. They were de¬fended upon the ground of necessity; but w’hat was doneupon reasons of temporary expediency has been allowed topass without repeal, and can new be abrogated only^bystrong pressure. The country would support the manufac¬turers in an effort to secure the removal of this class of im¬posts, for the very practical reason that the result would beto cheapen good?, an argument just as important to the man¬ufacturer as to the public at large. On the contrary, nosympathy can be expected from the people in an attempt togain a further advance in the tariff, for the reason that theprofessed object of such a measure is to enhance prices. Amovement for the removal of the internal duties on manu-factures has this great recommendation, that it coincideswith the reactionary tendency of affairs toward lower prices,and that by cheapening products it so far facilitates that re¬

duction in wages which is at present the great desideratumof our industries.

By reason of the refusal of the St. Paul Company to fur¬nish us the October earnings of their several lines separately)we have been compelled to give the earnings of the Wisconsinlines (usually reported by us in our monthly summary) andthose of the line in Iowa and Minnesota (135 miles) as awhole. This somewhat deranges our tables, as the Octobermileage is so much larger than the mileage of the previousmonths of the year, and cannot be compared with thosemonths in gross. The discrepancy, however, disappears in thesubjoined table which shows the miles of railroad operatedand the gross earnings per mile for the corresponding monthof the two years 1866 and 1867, as deduced from the figuresof the preceding statement:

From these deductions it is very apparent that the increaseshown in August and September has been continued on an

enlarged scale in October. As compared with the earnings ofthe corresponding months af 1SG6, those of 18G7 were in ex¬

cess—in August $3S per mile, or 4.09 per cent.; in September ^63 per mile, or 6.25 per cent., and in October 8127 permile, or 11.07 percent. The highest (October) of the year,and the lowest (February) compare together, and with themonthly average as follows :

tv that Octjber, 1SGY, has beenmonth, indeed, the most pros-

perous as yet in the annals of American railroading. As in¬dicating the commercial movement it assures us that thecountry generally is in a high state of activity, although insome branches of industry there may be a lack of vitalityThe movement of the grain crops lias, no doubt, contributedmost largely to tbl sum total earned ; but there is also a west¬ward movement which will probably grow heavier as the sea¬son advances, and the grain excitement subsides, the Westernconsumers of merchandise having made sufficient money fromthe sale of thejr produce to warrant a liberal expenditure inthe seaboard cities and manufacturing districts.

DEBT OP BROOKLYN CITY.The funded debt as ascertained from the comptroller’s books by a

committee of the Joint Board of Aldermen aud Supeivisors, is re¬ported to have amounted on the 2d July, 1837, to $12,361,919 92.At which date the Sinking Fund and other means on hand applica-ble for the discharge of this indebtedness to $1,213,040 61, whichbeiDg deducted leaves the net indebtedness at $11,147,869 31.With little exception this debt has beenmade on account of thecity waterworks, the new park and other important improvementsall tending to add to the taxable value of property within thecity limits.

Itwill, however, be seen that most of the principal and interest is onlynominally payable by the city ; the water debt is already, or soonwill be, self-sustaining, and the debts for street improvements willbe paid from local assessments. The real debta. chargeable on thecity are those for parks, the city hall, bounties aud current expenses,in all $4,571,919 92. This shows that Brooklyn, with its 300,000inhabitants, has little reason to complain of heavy burdens. Wehave under preparation a full analysis of the finauces of the city forseveral years, which will appear iu the Chronicle at an early day.

[From our own Correspondent.]London, Saturday, November 2, 1867.

Taken as a whole, the tone of business during the present week ha3somewhat improved, owing to the fact that the Roman difficulty, it iabelieved, will receive a satisfactory aud permanent solution at thehands of an European Congress. Hence, although the Freuch troopshave gone to Rome, and although the Papal frontier has been crossedby the Italian army, business has been transacted with mere confidence ;at the same time, it is of a strictly legitimate character, but few per¬sons being bold enough to embark in any extensive speculative trans¬actions. Confidence has not yet by any means wholly returned—muchcaution is displayed, and much anxiety continues to be felt in all quarters. There is a good business doing, but it is free from speculation,and goods or produce therefore now’ reach the consumers without havingto filter through so many hands, in each of which there has, for someyears, been a profit, and to which circumstance may be attributed, ingreat part, the high prices current for most articles of produce andmanufacture previously to the failure of Overend, Guruey tfc Co. Theseclasses of speculators are mostly men of small means, and yet, com¬pared with their means, embarked in extensive operations. This kindof business, no doubt, proved remunerative, so long as they wereenabled to enj oy credit and obtain advances at the banks, many ofwhich, unfortunately for the shareholders in those coucerns, were buttoo willing to make advances to men of straw. The crisis, howeverhas taught some very useful lessons, which may be held in remembrance for some years to come ; and yet, unfortunately, the periodicareturn of crises leads one to fear that the lesson will not be a permanent one.

On Monday, the holders of wheat succeeded in raising the quotationsto the extent of Is. to 2s. per quarter above the late lowest point; butthe wheat trade has not been characterised by any degree of anima¬tion, the dealings of the millers being of quite a hand-to-mouth cha¬racter. Hence, the amount of business transacted has been very mode¬rate, and, judging from the nature of our importations, I am of theopinion that the stocks ot wheat at the outports has increased of late.My belief is that when the returns of stocks of grain in London, Liver **

pool, and in the other outports, is ascertained at the clos6 of the yearwe shall find that they are larger than we anticipated, a circumstancewhich, if it happen to be true, will be hailed with much satisfaction bythe commercial body in this country.Since the commencement of September, the imports of wheat into

the United Kingdom have been as much as 5,308,461 cwt., while inthe corresponding period in 1866 we received only 2,557,835 cwt.»consequently there is an augmented importation of 2,750,000 cwt.Our exports of wheat, in the same period, have been only 275,930 cwt.,against 169,148 cwt., the increase being confined to 106,80* cwt. Onrimports of flour are rather larger thau in 1866, but the increase in thatdepartment is small. The annexed statement shows the extent of ourimports and exports of wheat and flour into and from the United King¬dom since the commencement of September:

The Paris money market during the present week has become morelike our own, the quotations for discount, so far as relates to the bestdescriptions of paper, having declined about ^ per cent. Premier banquepaper is now taken at per cent. The supply of bullion held by theBack of* France amounts to £36,727,000, while the amount of discountsis increased to £23,874,650. In other parts of the Continent the varia¬tions in the rates of discounts have not been important. At the leaa'ng cities the quotations are as under :

During the ten months ending October 31, our imports of wheatwere as much as 8,000,000 cwt. greater than in 1806, but as there is adiminution of 1,405,000 cwt. in our receipts of flour, the net increasein our imports of breadstuff's is reduced to 6,600,000 cwt. This, how¬ever, is an important augmentation but our supplies are likely to be on astill greater scale before the close of the year. Subjoined is a state¬ment, showing the extent of our imports of cereals in the ten monthsending Oct. 30, compared with the corresponding periods in the threepreceding years : 1S64.

The buoyancy noticed in the cotton market, la.-t week, has entirelydisappeared, and this week enles amount to only 69,150 tales Therecent advance in the quotations has also been lost. The wool tradecontinues dull; the last series of public sales of colonial wool will becommenced, it is believed, on Thursday, the 14th of November, and an

impression prevails that prices will further decline £ to id * perNearly all the departments of trade are very quiet. For mctaDthere is a fair demand ; but, with this exception, business is extremY’limited. _ ^The money market has presented a more active appearante but at

the same time, there is room for a still greater improvement in the de-Tnand. During the present week, money has beeD more freely emplo^ed, and coin for the best descriptions of paper, which are still in ^quest on the part of the hauks and discount houses, the rates of digcount are decidedly higher. In fact, as compared with the loweYquotations, lately current, there has been a rise in the quotations ofi- and in some instances,©! £ per cent. No bills have lately been f,fe¬at a lower figure than 1± per cent., while, only a few d ,y8 eir.ce Litclass paper was done as low as 1£, and coin 1 1*16 percent? Wehave now, however, arrived at the period of the year, when the monYmarket usually becomes more stringent, and the demand for accommo¬dation keeps strong until the turn of the year. An impression pre¬vails in some quarters that the Bank authorities wilUhortly raisetheir minimum quotation to a higher figure than 2 per cent Tho«ewho hold this opmion seem to base their calculation on the fact thatthe outflow of gold—to which I shall presently allude—will necessi¬tate such a course ; but, it should be borne in mind that themarket rate is much below that of the Bank bf England, and thaH"very considerable improvement must be experienced, before such astvp as racing the Bank r,.te, would be a justifiable act on the part ofthe B ink authorities. At the present time, the difference between theBank and the open market minimum is as much as $■ per cent andjudging from the position of commerce, and from the fact that it is notlikely the requirements of the commercial body will be augmented toany very important extent, we cannot think it probable that the Bankminimum will exceed 2 per cent, during the present year What raa bthe result cfour late heavy importations of wheat seems at presen tunce/tain ; but, at all events, should gold be sent away for the purchase ofwheat, there is sufficient capital laying unerap’oyed to meet that wantwithout trenchiDg upon the supplies now existing in the general mar-

The imports of gold during the present week have been considerablebut the entire supply has been taken for export, in addition to whichthere have been some rather important withdrawals from the Bank ofEngland. As, however, the rates of discount here and at Paris havebecome more equal, there is a probability that the shipments to theContinent will fall off. Mexican dollars, owing to the large supply inthe market, as well as to the fact that the French steamer from Mexicois expected to bring a very large supply, are dull, and the quotationhas fallen te 5(Jd. per ounce. Bar silver, however, is in limited supply,the price is 60 7-1 Gd. per ounce.

On the whole, the consol maiket has ruled firm. The impressionwhich prevails that the Roman question will be satisfactorily, and in¬deed, permanently arranged, has had a beneficial effect upon the mar¬ket, and prices have had a slight upward tendency. The announcement,however, that the Italian troops had crossed the Papal frontier has pro¬duced a certain degree of anxiety, and at the close the tone of th3 mar¬ket is not so firm as it was at the commencement of the week. Con¬

sols, however, continue to be dealt in for investment, and these operations have necessarily- an important influence in sustaining prices-Annexed are the highest and lowest prices of Consols on each day ofthe present week :

New Steamship Line to Panama and San Francisco.—A line ofsteameie of the North American Steamship Company is advertised torun to Panama, connecting with steamers on the other side of theIsthmus for San Francisco. The purposes and prospects of this newline are stated in a card of the vice President of the Company whichappeared in cme of the city dalies, from which we extract the follow¬ing: '

44 Having a sufficient fleet of steamships on b >th oceans to maintaintwo lines, we have concluded to establish a permanent line via Aspm-wall and Panama, and also continue our present line to Nicaragua;We run our steamships for regular business purposes, and not for the

object of affecting Pacific Mail stock, or aiding either parties in the matterof the approaching contest for the election of directors.We have eight steamships of our own, of which the Nevada, Dako¬

ta, Oregonian and Nebraska are entirely new and built for the trade,and wre have under charter the steamships Arago and Fulton, makingin all ten steamships, which we consider adequate to supply the re¬quirements of both lines.”Attention is called to the card of Messrs. A. W. Dirnoc k & Co.,

bankers, at No, 16 Nassau street, which is published on the 4th pageof this issue. *

The Money Market.—The week commenced with an unfavor¬able bank statement. The legal tender line showed a decline of§1,800.000; and the net deposits a loss of §300,000; which,, con¬

sidering that the specie deposits had increased §3,000,000, reallymeant a reduction of §4,200,000 in the currency deposits, while theloans had increased §500,000. This adverse change appears to havearisen chiefly from the currency shipments to the South being in ex¬cess of the receipts from the West.The loan market, however, has not shown any material chauge

in sympathy with the more expanded condition of the banks. Therehas been a more active demand for money upon stocks; but it hasbeen met readily at 7 per cent., and in many cases at 6 per cent.At the close the market shows considerable activity, uniformly at 7per cent, on stocks and G@7 per cent, on Governments.At the Western centres exchanges favor this city, and from

Chicago there is a steady influx of currency. Money is going tothe South in moderate volume, but not with that activity whichhas been anticipated.In discounts there is little change. Local paper has less compe¬

tition from Western grain bills than of late, and merchants are ableto discount rather more freely, but at high rates, prime paper, out¬side the banks, being per cent.The following are the quotations for loans of various classes :

There is stilln moderate foreign demand for the bonds ; which with the veryHimited snpply on the market has caused a further advance, theprice now being 102-1, against 101| on Friday last. There is asteady counter demand for all classes of bonds in small lots; butwith the present firmness of money on cal! no important amountsare wanted for the employment of balances; which is perhaps thechief element of weakness in the market.The following are the closing prices of leading securities, com¬

, Railroad and Miscellaneous Stocks.—During the week cer¬tain correspondence between Mr. Vanderbilt and leading stockhold¬ers in New York Central was published, showing that Mr. Van¬derbilt has secured proxies which give him the control of the nextelection of directors for that road. At the same time it was givenout that an understanding had been arrived at between the ErieCompany and the management of the Hudson River, New YorkCentral and Harlem roads in favor of an arrangement of tariffs ad¬vantageous to all the roads ; and further, that the Michigan South¬ern road would be ultimately brought into the combination. ITowfar these representations are to be relied upon as likely fb be ulti¬mately realised, we are not prepared to say. It is, however, ru¬mored that at present a majority in the Erie direction are opposedto in any way binding themselves to the New York Central. Theserepresentations, however, have been made the occasion of the cliquein these stocks, making a grand effort to wire up the prices of therespective shares; which has been, to a certain extent, successful,New York Central having advanced 2f, Erie, 1^, and MichiganSouthern 2-|, upon our last quotations. The movement hasbeen almost exclusively confined to brokers, the outsidepublic being still insensible to the attractions of thestock market. Northwestern common also has been advanced 5

per cent, by the operations of the clique. It is understood that thestock is going chiefly into the hands of Mr. Henry Keep, who isrepresented as aiming to control the next election of directors ofthe road. No arrangement has yet been made between the North¬western and the Milwaukee and St. Pauls roads, although theformer is anxious to bring the dispute to a conclusion, and to obviatea resort to the courts, where their success would perhaps be very?doubtful.The general list has sympathized with the rise in the clique stocks

to the extent of 1@2 per cent.The following were the closing quotations at the regular board,

compared with those of the six preceding weeks :

Toe Gold Market.—The course of the gold premium has beensteadily upward, the price having advanced from 138f. our lastquotation to 1411 to-day. The new complications in the Italianquestion and the overstocked condition of the foreign market forFive-Twenties have had some influence in producing this change^But the chief cause appears to have been the anticipation of anexciting discussion in Congress upon the question of contractionand inflation and the payment of United States bonds in currency.Parties who profess to have information upon the prospects ofthese issues have been large buyers, and the bull interest is becom¬ing quite important. The short interest does not appear to bektrge and cash ” gold is easy.The fluctuations in the gold market during the week closing with

624 THE CHRONICLE. [November 16,1867.

&ijc Commercial ^irnes.

COMMERCIAL EPITOME.Friday Night, November 15.

General trade continues to somewhat improve, althoughNovember is usually expected to be a “dull month.” Pricesare in many cases below the cost of replacing the goods ;stocks are generally below the average, and the demand forconsumption rather increasing, as the crops are marketed.Cotton has declined one cent. Breadstuff's are without

essential change. Groceries have been fairly active, with agood degree of firmness in Coffee and Sugar. Tobacco hasbeen unite active at some concession to buvers.*

4/

Provisions have shown a good degree of activity, with somevariations in prices. It is now pretty certain that the Porkpacking will be smaller and much later than last year; the

- receipts of wine have fallen off, and Mess has advanced to$21 10, while some new Prime Mess has been taken for ex¬

port at $21. Lard lias improved, and Prime is wanted forexport at 13^c. Bacon has been very active, with sales forthe week of about 7,000 boxes for export, part for future de¬livery, closing at 12^c. for Cumberland on the spot, 11|-@I He. for December, and 11c. for January. Beef lias alsoreceived more attention from shippers, with .some business inIndia Mess at $32 per tierce. Butter is quiet but shipmentsof Cheese have been renewed at 15c. for prime factory.

Hides have materially declined, with sales at the close at10^c. gold, for Dry Buenos Ayres, and lOfc. currency, forCity Steers. Leather is also dull and heavy.Naval Stores close rather firmer for Spirits Turpentine at

55c.; free, and 46.1c, in bond, and common and strained Rosinat $3 25@$3 50. Oils of all kinds are dull and heavy.

East India Goods are generally tinner, but not very active.A despatch by the cable reports that a cyclone at Calcuttah id done considerable damage, and that shipments to theUnited States had been materially reduced.Metals have been quiet and drooping, except Iron, which

is doing better at $39@$4i for Scotch Pig.Fish have been drooping. Fruits, at somewhat easier prices,have been active. Hops show an improved demand; receiptshaving fallen off, prices are more steady. Tallow is unchanged-Whiskey is nearly nominal. Building Materials are without

important variation.Wool has met with a large sale to manufacturers at [email protected] medium to fine fleeces, closing with a rather better tone,

on the reduced receipts.Freights have been much less active the past week ; but

with very few vessels on the berth, or in the berth, rates havebeen pretty well supported.Receipts off Domestic Produce for the Week, and since

January 1.The receipts of domestic produce for the week ending Nov. 16, sinceJan. 1, and for the same time in 1866, have been as follows :

The market this week has been depressed all the week, thedecline since our last being fully one cent per lb. iu the face ofan advance of two cents in gold. Shippers has been lessanxious, buyers and spinners have operated sparingly, whilethere has been very little speculation. The large receipts atthe ports, the continued good weather and the lower quota¬tions and unfavorable accounts from Liverpool—private des¬patches being even less favorable than those which are made pub¬lic—with the absence of a brisk demand here, have been themain causes of the decline. Sales of the week foot up13,199 bales of which 2,819 bales were taken by spinners8,037 bales for export and 1,363 bales on speculationi Thefollowing are the closing quotations :

The Crop.—We can add nothing to our former reports ofthe crop, except to state that the weather has continued veryfavorable throughout the cotton growing region. Never hasthere been a finer season for picking. Frost reports havereached us during the week, but we do not hear that it hasbeen severe enough to do any injury, on the contrary the effectis thus far reported as being beneficial on the unopened bolls.Estimates of the probable yield continue to differ considerably,but very few now put it below million bales, while themore general opinion at this point tends above that figure.Charleston, Nov. 9.—The mail returns for the week ending Nov. 8

628 THE CHRONICLE [November 16,1867,

We have consequently to note the sale of only a few small retail lotstaken for the city trade and for manufacturing purposes. The PriceCurrent says : 4‘ We understand that estimates have been made byparties well informed fixing the growth of the present season at aboutfive-eighths of the last years yield, thus proving in a measure the dis¬couraging accounts heretofore received from the tobacco growing sec¬tion. Private advices state that the crop is now all housed,a consider¬able portion of it having been cut before maturity for fear of injury byfrost It is said that a greater portion of it is small leaf. The stockon hand and on shipboard, as will be seen by reference to the annexedstatement, sums up ] 873 hogsheads; of these, however, only about600 hogsheads are now on sale from first hands.” Stock in ware¬houses and on shipboard not cleared, on the 8th inst., 1,313 hhde.Week’s receipts, 32 hhds.

BREADSTUFFS.Friday, Nov. 15, 1867, P. M.

There have been considerable fluctuations in leading arti-cles the past week, but prices at the close show very littlevariation from last Friday.Flour arrived in about the average quantity, and steadily

declined, until Wednesday, when a speculative movement setin and prices were advanced 25c. per lb. But the market re¬ceived very little support from the trade, and the advance wasspeedily lost; but at the reduced prices a large export busi¬ness was done yesterday, nineteen thousand barrels extrastate being taken at 80 70@$10. At-the close to-day themarket was dull and heavy, under a -cessation of exportorders.

- Wheat has arrived freely, and the shipping demand ismuch reduced, but a speculative movement carried up pricesto 82 20 for No. 2, and 82 32 for No. 1 Spring, upon whichbuyers withdrew, and the advance has been mostly lost, withvery little business at the decline and the tendency down¬wards—No. 2 closing at 82 21@82 23, and No. 1 82 27@82 30. A portion of the business of the week, was to North¬ern millers, but the demand lias subsided.Corn has varied but little, and closes dull. The local de¬

mand is partially supplied by new Southern and Ohio corn infair condition, which sells at 81 20@1 25. Rye has beenfirmer, with some business in Western, for the Continent, at81 60@1 02T. Barley has brought extreme figures, but closesdull and heavy. Oats continue to be strongly supported by aspeculative demand, but have a dull trade. Canada Peas aredull at 81 40, in bond.The following are closing quotations:

GROCERIES.Friday Evening, Nov. 15.

The trade in Groceries has been subject to the same'depressing condition that seems to hang like a weight overmost branches of mercantile business at this time. Early inthe week there was a slight revival, as if to make up for thelost time consumed at election, but later there has been a re¬

turn of the dulness -which has become a stereotyped phasewith those interested in trade. Prices do not seem to havereceded to any extent with the decline gold, nor do they ad¬vance, as yesterday and to-day gold advances. There seemsan entire absence of anything like speculative feeling, or dis¬position to purchase more than the actual consumption wantsdemand.

. '

Imports of the week at this port have been small, includingonly 6,219 bags of coffee, 1,068 boxes, and 326 hogsheads ofsugar, and 1,573 hogsheads of molasses.

TEA.

There was a slight revival in the tea trade at the close of last week,and there has been a few sales from first hands during this, with amore steady tone to prices, but generally the market is unsatisfactoryThe sales for the week are 2,100 half-chests greens, and 400 do. JapansThere have been no imports of tea during the week, and no further

advices have been received from China. The movements in tea are ex

ceedingly small, and our tables of imports and shipments have beenalmost unchanged for a number of weeks, so that it is unnecessary toreport them.

COFFEE.

The coffee market was fairly active early in the week, and priceswere steady ; since which time there is but little doing, and althoughprices are not decidedly changed there is less firmness. The sales forthe week are 13,649 bags Rio ; the market closing quiet.The imports of coffee for the week have included only 6,026 bags of

Rio per steamer “ Marmion,” and a few bags of sundries. „ At NewOrleans a cargo of 5,600 bags Rio per “ E. S. lhayer ” has been re¬ceived.The imports since January 1, and stock in fir. t hands Nov. 1*2, are

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.• Iriday, P. M., November 15, 1867.

The Dry Goods Market bas continued to exhibit the im¬

proved tone noticed at the close of last week, although thereis perhaps rather less activity to-dav than early in the week.The manufacturers have curtailed production to some extentand stocks are not large for any kind of goods while someprime makes of prints are in very light supply. On heavygrades of cotton goods and those of coarser texture there isstill a softening tendency. The money market is not suffi¬ciently easy yet to relieve the pressure for money, and goodsare still sold at nominal rates in some instances for cash.There is an improved demand from the South aud Southwestand it is probable that- a fair business is in prospect for somedays to come. The market for woollen goods is quiet exrcepting for the leading makes of fine and heavy goods, andsome low grades suitable for manufacture into clothing forthe summer trade. The export demand is fair although ourreport shows a slight falling off for the week.The exports of dry goods for the past week and since January

but trade is still unsatisfactory. Heavy dress goods are improving.The sales of foreign goods at auction have been generally more sat¬

isfactory the pa9t week. On Wednesday Messrs, Wilmerding9 A Mountdisposed of a catalogue of Germantown goods, hosiery, gloves, Ac., byorder of Messrs. Townsend A Yale. There was a good company pres¬ent, but bidding was not very spirited, owing to the announcement ofanother large sale the next day of the same kind of goods. The fineline of sh iwla did fairly well, but in the hosiery and gloves there wasa still further reduction in prices to note. The cold weather shouldhave caused a favorable tendency towards better rates, but jobbers ateso loaded up with these articles that there is but a very limited de¬mand to supply in the market.

On the same day Messrs. Koobe, Corlies A Co. held a sale of bonnetand trimming ribbons, millinery goods, Ac., by order ol Messrs. PartridgeA Ballard, which was numerously attended. There is no changes toreport in this branch of business, very fair prices being offered for de¬sirable black velvet ribbons, and other fashionable tints of bonnet rib¬

bons, while the others are difficult to dispose of. Some styles werewell duplicated.

National Bureau of Insurance.—At the second session ofthe Chamber of Life Insurance, the Committee to which was refer¬red the subject of National Legislation reported the following :

Whereas, We believe that the establishment of a National Bureauof Insurance is of vital importance to the welfare of the whole busi¬ness of the country, and also belive that Congress has authority underthat clause of the Constitution authorizing it to “ regulate commerceto establish such a Bureau ; therefore

Resolved, That a Special Committee of this Chamber be appointed,th? duty of which will be to so organize all the influence of the LifeInsurance Companies in this country as to bring it to bear directlyupon the representation in Congress, to secure this desirable result;and to prepare a bill and submit the same to an early meeting of theChamber, which shall apply to all the Life Companies in the countrythe test of solvency adopted by this 'hamber ; and also give permis¬sion to Companies so found solvent to transact business in any part ofour whole country without further expense and taxation than the ne¬cessary expenses of such Bureau. . .This led to considerable discussion. The report was ultimately

adopted as read, and a Special Committee of seven members ap¬pointed.

Union Pacific Railroad, AtlanticRunning West from Omaha Across the Continent are now Mutual Insurance Co.,‘..Completed. | 7

NEW YORK, JANUARY 25th, 1S67,The Trustees, in Conformity to the Charter of theCompany, submit the following Statement of itsaffairs on the 31st December, 1866:

Premiums received on Marine Risks,from 1st January, 1S66, to 31st De¬cember, 1S66 $8,282,021 26

The Union Pacific Railroad Company have built alonger line of railroad in the last eighteen monthsthan was ever built by any other company in the sametime, and they will continue the work with the sameenergy until it is completed. The Western Divisionis being pushed rapidly eastward from Sacramento bythe Central Pacific Company of California, and it isexpected that

the entire grand line

to the Pacific will be open for business in 1870. MORETHAN one-third of the work has alreadybeen done, more than one-third of thewhole line is now in running order, andmore laborers are now employed uponit THAN EVER BEFORE. More than

Forty Trillion Dollars In Moneyhave already been expended by the two powerfulcompanies that have undertaken the enterprise, andthere is no lack of funds lor its most vigorous prose¬cution. When the United States Government foundit necessary to secure the construction of the UnionPacific Railroad, to develop and protect its own inte¬rests, it gave the companies authorized to build itsuch ample aid as should render its speedy completionbeyond a doubt. The available means ot the UnionTacific Railroad Company, derived from the Govern¬ment and its own stockholders, may be briefly summedup as follows:

1.—United Slates Ronds.

Having thirty years to run, and bearing six per cent,currency interest at the rate of $16,000 per mile for 517miles on the on the Plains ; then at the rate of $48,000per mile for 150 miles through the Rocky Mountains;then at the rate of $32,000 per mile for the remainingdistance, for which the United States takes a secondlien as security. The interest on these bonds is paidby the United States Government, which also pays thecompany one-half the amount of its bills in money fortransporting its freight, troops, mails, &c. The re¬maining half of these bills is placed to the com¬pany’s credit, and forms a sinking fund which mayfinally discharge the whole amount of this lien. Theclaims against the government since April of the cur"reut year amount to four and one-half times .his interest.

2.—First Mortgage Bonds.By its charter the company is permitted to Issue its

own First Mortgage Bonds to the same amount as thebonds issued by the Government, and no more, andonly as the road progresses. The Trustees forthe bondholders#re the Hon. E. D. Morgan, U. S. Sen¬ator from New York, and the Hon. Oakes Ames, Memher of U. S, House ol'Representatives, who are res

pousihlc for the delivery of these bonds to the Com:pany in strict accordance with the terms ol' the law

3.—The Land Grant.

The. Union Pacific Railroad Company has a landgrant or absolute donation from the Government ol12,800 acres to the mile on the line of the road, whichwill not be worth less than $1 50 per acre at the lowest

As the U. S. Bonds are, equal to money, and the Com_pany’s own First Mortgage Bonds have a ready mar¬ket, we have as the

Available Cashin 11 Eleven

Resources for Build-IIundred Miles:

U.S. Bonds $29,828,000First Mortgage Bonds .■+ 29,328,000Capital stock paid in oil the work now done. 5,309,750Land grant, 11,080,000 acres, at $1 50 per acre. 21,120,000

Total $35,145,750

The Company have ample facilities for supplyingany deficiency that may arise in means for construc¬tion. This may be done wholly or in part by additionalsubscriptions to capital stock.

Active inquiry has already been made for a portionof these lands, and arrangements are now proposed tooffer a part of them for sale, While their whole valuewill not he available for some years to come, they wiljreirain a very important source of revenue to the Com.pany. The lands of the Illinois Central Railroad Com.pany are selling at from $6 to $12 per acre, and otherland-grant companies in thi West are receiving equalprices for similar properties.

FUTURE BUSINESS.

The most skeptical have never expressed a doubtthat wlienr the Union Pacific Railroad is finished theimmense business that must flow over it, as the onlyrailroad connecting the two grand divisions of theNorth American continent, and will be one of thewonders of railway transportation; as it will haveno competitor it can always charge remunerativerates.

Company is $100,000,000, of which over $5,000,000 havebeen paid on the work already done.

The Means Sufficient tolLoud.

Euild the

Contracts for the entire work of building 914 milesof first-class railroad west from Omaha, comprisingmuch of the most difficult mountain work, and em¬

bracing every expense except surveying, have beenmade with responsible parties (who have already fin¬ished over SOOmiles), at the average rate of sixty-eightthousand and fifty-eight dollars ($68,058) per mile.This price includes all necessary shops for constructionand repairs of cars, depots, stations, and all other in¬cidental buildings, and also locomotives, passenger,-baggage, and freight cars, and other requisite rolliug-tock, to an amount that shall not be less than $5,000per mile. Allowing the cost of the remaining onehundred and eighty-six of the eleven hundred milesassumed to be built by the Pacific Company to be$90,000 per mile. *•

Tlie Total Cost of Eleven HundredMiles will be as follows:mHeS«at f68-058 $62 205 019

Add discounts on bonds, surveys, &c... !.*.*. !" 4,500,000Amount $83,445,012

Net profit $185,789 04

The amount of Bonds the Company can issue on 325miles, at $16,000 per mile, is $5,‘200.000. Interest in goldthree months, at 6 per cent., on this sum, is $7S,000;add 40 per cent, premium, to correspond with currencyearnings is $109,200, showing that the net earnings forthis quarter were more than four times the in¬terest on the First Mortgage Bonds on this length ofroad.

First Mortgage Bonds,whose principal is so amply provided for, and whoseinterest is so thoroughly secured must be classedamong the safest investments. They pay

SIX PER CENT. IN GOLD,and are offered for the present at NINETY CENTS ONTHE DOLLAR, and accrued interest at Six Per Cent,in Currency from July 1.

Many parties are taking advantage of the presenthigh price of Government stocks to exchange for theseBonds, which are ever 15 per cent, cheaper, and, at thecurrcnt rate of premium on gold, pay .

Over Nine Per Cent. Intercut.
