8PM IK PntiLNrs AND TDK REPORIEU FOKEIG!! lUM.The report i* revired, to which we referred some time
Ago, that Mr. BriHtow is aboot to make a new contract
with the Syndicate, to take .300 millions of 4^ per cent,
bond*, the proceeds to be paid in gold, by means of
which the work of resumption is to be facilitated. Wehave made aome inquiry, and at present we have not
been able to trace the report to any authentic source.
It has been pat in circulation abroad, and it in producingsome impression, as perhaps was intended, u|K»n the
money markets on both sides of the Atlantic.
Several oonsiderationA show thnt this report, in its
present shape, is wholly without prr>bability. It ignoresthe fact that Mr. Bristow's present contract with the
Syndicate will not close till the middle of November.Under this contract some 20 millions of the new Fivesare still untaken. The Rothschild Syndicate have a Ciill
upon this mm, but the bonds are not yet sold, and till
the whole of this remdne of the Fives are placed upon
the market it is not likely that any new proposition
will be made by the Syndicate looking to the purchase
of the 4^ per cents. Nor is it very probable that Mr,
Bristow will receive or has received any such proposition
from any other Syndicate for two simple reasons. Fiist,
the money market in Germany is troubled from causes
which are attracting much attention ; and, secondly, qnr
new Fives should go to a premium of four or five
per cent b^ore the project of floating a 4^ per c«it.
loan can be entertained with a good prospect of success.
Although, however, there is no prospect of the imme-
diate negotiation of such a loan as is talked of, we still
hold to the opinion which generally prevails in this
country and has many times been expounded in our col-
umns, that the credit of the United States ought to be and
might be so well established that a four per cent, long
bond would be in demand in Europe at par in gold.
This, however, is not the question with which we have
Bt present to deal. The point now in di8]>ute is, whether
any immediate movement is at all probable looking to
the absorption of a loan of 200 or 300 millions of 4| per
oeot. bonds in Europe in exchange for which gold coin
or boUion is to be shipped to this country. We do not
see any reason whatever to believe that such a project
haa been seriously entertained at Washington, that it
would be feasible if attempted, or that it has the merit
of offering any of the conditions indispensable to our
resumption of specie pa3rments.
Every one who has had recent opportunities for can-
vassing the condition of our public credit abroad must
have observed that the mischievous agitation kept np by
the inflationists in this country has seriously impaired
the status of our securities in regard to foreign investors.
Th«'re is a large current of capital in the European money
markets which is tending and might in a short time be
induced to continue to invest itself in our Government
seciutctea, if the barrier were once removed which
the recent schemes of paper money inflation have raised
to obsmct the flow of such capital into these channels
of American investment. It is one of the advantages
anticipated from specie resumption that it would revive
confidence and attract capital from both domestic and
foreign sources to irrigate and fertilise the fields of
industrial enterprise. The rumor which we are discuss-
ing reverses the time and order of events. It pretends
to make specie payments follow a large foreign loan
;
whereas every one knows that we must not look for
such foreign loans till after the resumption of specie
payments.
The snggestion has indeed been made that Mr. Bristow
would do well to offer to the Syndicate a smaller amount,
310 THE CHRONICLE. [October 2, 1876.
say 50 milUonP, of the new Fives to he paid for in gold,
and that he should by degrees add about that sum to the
gold balance in the Treasury. It is said that, under the
resumption law, the power has been confided to the
Secretary of the Treasury to increase his gold balance in
the way proposed. Whether this be so or not a difficulty
would be encountered if any efforts should be made at
present to attract gold from Europe. Germany is pro-
posing to coin gold more rapidly this year, with the view
to carry out her coinage reforms, and to establish her
new system of currency on a gold standard. France,
'
also, is still accumulating gold, and the Bank of England
holds a larger coin balance than usual. If the attempt
were made to draw by means of a loan any considerable
sum of gold from Europe into our Treasury vaults, it is
easy to see that a formidable opposition to the scheme
would be provoked, and that by adding a new perturbing
force to the foreign money markets we should defeat
our own purpose, inasmuch as the negotiation of our
loans would be impossible, except the monetary situation
could be kept tranquil in Europe.
Although for these and other reasons the rumors wehave discussed seem to be without much basis in truth,
gtill it is perhaps well that these questions have been
raised at the present juncture. It has led us to discuss
the important points, how much gold do we want to ac-
cumulate previous to resumption, and how is this gold to be
obtained. Moreover, this discussion is capable of teaching
us not a few salutary lessons. It ought to show us whythe agitation of paper money inflation is impairing our
credit abroad, and why resumption may be expected to
promote the influx of foreign as well as domestic capital
into our depressed industries. Finally, it will show us
the inexpediency of depending too far upon foreigners
for gold with which to resume. Gold is indigenous to
this country. The gold crop is one of our richest prod-
ucts. A great authority has said that a larger amountof gold is hoarded in this country than by any other
nation iu the world. Whether this be so or not there is
,no doubt that we must rely on our own product of gold
for the basis of resumption; and that although Europe
is at present in no mood to export to us any considerable
amount, still it is probable that from our own prolific
mines and from the hoarded treasures of our people weshall be able to accumulate and to make available suffi-
cient gold and silver to enable us to resume at the time
appointed in the law, if the other conditions of specie
payments have been wisely and faithfully provided.
FAILURE OF THE THIRD AVENUE SAVINGS BANK.
In some quarters there is a disposition to attach too
m^ch, and in others too little, of importance to this
failure, which was not officially announced to the public,
till Thursday morning, when the bank closed its doors.
Next week, when Mr. Wm. S. Carman, the receiver, is
to make his report, we shall be in a better position to un-derstand the questions that have been raised by the various
parties to this long and mischievous controversy. Meaij-
while, there are some important aspects of the disaster
on which public opinion, from the facts alreadybefore it, is fully competent to decide. In the first
place, the managers of this institution have committedsonje serious blunders. Eight or ten years ago the
Third A.yeque Savings Bank was one of the most pop-ular institutions in the part of the city where it didbusiness.. It had a respectable body of trustees andkrge deposits. It was incorporated in 1854, and its
progress was steadily upward until its deposits exceeded
six millions. It had the advantage of continuing under
one management, its policy was conservative, and its
credit and influence stood high in the financial circles. In
an evil hour dissensions arose in its Board; several trus-
tees retired ; and the public confidence was shaken byreports to its disadvantage.
A second error was of still older date. Various privileges
were obtained from the Legislature in a special charter,
which conferred on the trustees the power, at their dis-
cretion, to invest their deiiosifs' partly in loans on call.
This misobievous privilege had much to do with bringing
on the dissensions above referred to. It was not long in
being abused. The hungry adventurers of Wall street
were on the watch, and they soon found out that
men in the board of management of this prosperous
bank could lend them money on stock collaterals. Byan ingenious device, well understood and formerly too
much practiced in the precincts of the Stock Exchange,
these adventurers got loans on government and other
hypothecated securities, and then, under plausible pre-
texts, withdrew the collaterals, substituting others of
less or greater value by consent of the bank authorities.
In tliis way, these reckless stock speculators introduced
into several well managed banks and savings institutions
a considerable amount of almost worthless securities,
and when these gamblers failed the bank could not sell
its collaterals and had to keep them. How such
mancEuvres as these worked the ruin of the bank, we
shall perhaps learn by the receiver's report when that
document appears. What is known is, that the five or
six millions of deposits held in 1808 declined and sunk,
till at the beginning of this year the amount was but
$1,454,958, and the bank was losing money at the rate
of $45,000 a year. The subjoined figures appear in Mr.
D. C. Ellis's Savings Bank Report, page 168, dated 1st

We give this report in full because it is extremely sug-
gestive and is well worthy of being put on record. The
affairs of the bank will perhaps give rise to protracted
litigation, and the above figures are the latest which
have been officially given to the public. The report
goes on to state that the number of open accounts Janu
ary 1, 1875, was 8,117; the number of accounts opened
during the year 1874, 1,562; the number of accounts

closed during the year 1874, 1,746; the number of ac-
counts opened since organization, 61,244. The amount
deposited, not including interest credited during 1874,
was #680,296 89; the amount deposited, including inter-
est credited during the same period, #761,795 91; the
amountwithdrawn during 1874,1779,577 59; theamount
of interest or profits received or earned during 1874,
#108,339 77; the amount of interest credited to deposit-
ors for the same period, #81,499,02; the amount of each
semi-annual credit of interest for the year 1874, and
when credited : For July 1, #40,472 18; do., for Jan. 1,
1875, #41,026 84. The rate per cent, of dividends or in-
terest to depositors for the year 1874 was 6 per cent,
on sums of #5,000 or under, 5 per cent, on sums over
#5,000. In view of these statements, it has been argued
that the institution should have been closed up long ago.
To this the reply is giren that the bank had been so pros-
perous in the y>ast that for seven yearn the successive
Bank Superintendents at Albany have believed that the
institution had still much of its old vitality and was capa-
ble of resnsoitation. Moreover, in the bank itself, the
same belief prevailed, and several able dynasties of trus-
tees bare vigorously contended against hostile influ-
ences, and in a perilous sea have labored hard to keep
the ship afloat. What the evidence may be that baa so
long animated sach experienced men we moat wait to
leam. It is impossible to deny to them a large share of
confidence. And confidence, as Mr. Richard Schell has
lately told us in his peculiarly emphatic style, is the
foundation of all financial suooeM. It seems, however,
that the public did not share this confidence, for they
drew out their deposits, and last year no less a sum than
#779,577 was withdrawn. This is about half of the total
deposits, and it was replaced by #761,795 of newdeposits.
Another vieir is supported by these figures. They are
interpreted to prove that within the last two or three
years the whole of the present deposits of #1,413,931
have been placed in the bank. If this view is correct, it
will follow that had the hank been wound ap a fewyears ago, as was proposed, little, if any, of the present
deposits would have been in the bank, and the men whoare the present losers by the failure woald have been
protected from this heavy disaster.
A third inference which has be«o dednced is, that as
the losses from which the bank has now saccnmbed wereall made several years ago, and as the depositors of that
period have received their money, devolving their losses
apon a new and innocent body of depontors, the latter
have an eqnitanle if not a legal elaim on the saooessive
boards of managers who have been entrusted with the
management of the bank.
Such are some of the conflicting opinions which are
being agiuted in the oommnnitv. It is not our pre<H>ntintention to discuss them further. Their impand the vigor with which they will be pressed .!
of course on the nature of the report which the receiveris able to offer. If the real estate and other prr)pertycould be sold at a price near iu assessed valuation, it
is quite clear that all the creditors of the bank would bepaid in full. Hut if this could have been done, the bankmight have gone on doing baaineas, and the presentcatastrophe and scandal would have been avoided. It is
rumored that there are parties in interest who are wellable to take the real e-<tate and other unproductive asseUif they could be convi- ' •' it in law or in equity therewas any possibility of them, or that the Dresentdepositors have a claim ^wnrn ran be enforced.

MONTHLY MOVEMENT OF CBOP.
As an exact indication of the rapidity with which cotton hag
been marketed for a series of years, we have completed oar table
showing the monihly movement of this and previous crops. Theremarkable fact is brought out by it that on the 15th of Decemberone-half of this year's port receipts had been counted, and on the
i'^d of December the receipts at the ports reached one half the total
crop. Last year half the port receipts were in on Jan. 2 and half
the crop Jan. 11 ; while the previous year the dates were respect-
ivi'ly Jan. 8 and Jan. 16.
It will be remembered that these monthly figures are made upby taking our total mail returns nearest the end of the month,
aud adding to or subtracting from that total the day receipts (as
per daily Cotton Exchange report) necessary to complete the

We should Btate in explauatiou of the above that the move-
ment in July, as given above, has for one or two years been added
to materially by a count of stocks in that month ; as, for instance,
in July, 1873, the receipts are stated at 83,515, but that includes
the correction on count of stock at New Orleans.
FINANCIAL REVIEW OF SEPTEMBER.
The month of September did not show as general an improve
ment in businef<8 as bad been hoped for, and in the early part of
the month, particularly, the volume of transactions was str.all.
Therq,were a few failures of some importance during the month,
but these were traceable in each case to special causes affecting
the houses involved, and were not taken as indicating any gen-
eral unsoundness in the branches of buBioef<s to wh'ich they be-
longed. At the close of the month the outlook was favorable,
and the assurance of good crops in the South and West, a mods-
rate aud reasonable advance in railroad freights, a good jobbing
trade in some of the Western cities, and the declaration for hard
money by the political parties of most of the influential States,
except Ohio and Pennsylvania, had all contributed to cause a
hopeful feeling.
The money market remained quite easy throughout the month
for call loans at IJ to 8 per cent. On commercial paper the rates
advanced to 5i@7 per cent, for prime paper, which was merely a
natural rise with the advance of the season towards the period of
more active businesB.
The prices of government securities were well maintained, and
bonds met with a good demand from financial corporations. Bus •
iness was at times unsettled by tfee fluctuations in gold, which
always influence to some extent the price of governments. Calls
for additional five-twenty bonds to the amount of $18,000,000
were issued during the month, of which -f3,000,000 were for
account of tl\e Sinking Fund.

IFrom our own correspondent.]
London, Saturday, Sept. 18, 1875.
We have had a very quiet T»eek In almost every respect. There
has been one failure for about £100,000 in the East Indian trade,
and intelligence has been received of numierous failures in NewYork. The latter caused for a time some depression in the market
for American securities, from which, however, there has been a
pretty general recovery. As regards money, a sli)?ht improve-
ment has been apparent ; but as the supply of floating capital is
gtill very large, the bxnk rate remains at 2 per cent, while in the
open market the best bills are taken at 1| to IJ per cent. As the
trade for the country remains quiet, it is not anticipated that the
autumnal demand for money will assume any considerable pro-
portions. It was thought at one time that the Increased sums weshall have to pay for foreign wheat would have considerable
influeuce upon the money market ; but it now appears we shall
obtain what foreign grain we require at moderate prices. There
is no doubt of the fact that we shall require much larger import,
tations of whea', owing to the deficiency of the English crop; but
in the present abundance of money in this country our augmented
payments of say £3,000,000 spread over a twelve month, are not
calculated to have much effect. After the long period of repose
which we have had, we are now in hopes of having a more general
employment for our capital ; but for some time to come at least,
capitalists are only likely to afford support to enterprise of real
merit and undoubted soundness. Unfortunately, the timid public
cannot yet be persuaded of the soundness of new undertakings,
and hence capital finds means of employment by very slow degrees.
The tendency, however, is in the right direction, and this is a step
in advance.
There has been a moderate demand for money during the week
and the rates of discount have been firm as follows

The periodical sale of bills on India was he'd at the Bank of
England on Wednesday. £446,500 was allotted to Calcutta,
£184,200 to Bombay, and £11,000 to Madras. Tenders at Us. Sid.
the rupee on all Presidencies were entertained in fall. This result
shows a slightly increased demand for the means of remittance to
the East.
On the Stock Exchange, business has been rather quiet. British
railway shares were very firm in the early part of the week, the
traffic receipts of the London & Brighton and South Eastern
undertakings being very favorable ; but the returns of lines in the
manufacturing districts being disappointing, the tone of the mar-
ket has since been dull. American Government and railroad bonds
were affected in the early pan of the week by the failure of Messrs-
Scliuchardt & Co., and l>y the iecline in the New York Exchange
to 4.81. The reduction, however, which took place attracted some
influential buyers, and the recovery in prices has been almost
complete.

The above figures confirm what has all along been stated with
regard to the quantity of land under wheat cultivation. In con-
sequence of the heavy fall in the price of wheat last autumn,
nearly 288,000 acres of land have been planted with other grain,
chiefly barley. This will represent, at 3 quarters to the acre,
864,000 quarters, or at. 4 quarters, which is considered to be an
average crop, 1,1.52,000 quarters. Present experience points to the
fact that the yield of wheat is about 1 quarter per acre les.'i than
last year, so that at that rate of calculation, there is a falling off
in the production of wheat this year, compared with 1874, of
rather more than 4,000,000 quarters. Even last year's abundant
crop of wheat compelled us to import largely, and consequently
foreigners may expect to find a ready market for their produce
this season. Fortunately for this country, we have no competitors
in the foreign markets, and hence wa hope to obtain our foreign
supplies on moderate terms.

Result op Centuries op Culture.—The successive editions ofWebster's Unabridged are as perennial in interest as in value.Each succesHive repriet finds the work of our great lexicographerstill unrivaled among Englisb dictionaries. In each republicationwe likewise find a mirrur of the scientific progress of tbe age, asleepless vigilance which nothing excapes, to catch every newshade of verbal significance, and to retain for our nnapproachedetandaid of language, that freshneis which preserves it from «ve
becoming old. In the 1 ,840 pages before os there are compressedtbe results of centuries of culture, and the sum of tbd intellectual
contributions of some ot the greatest minds of the race. Whetherregarded as a whole, or in detail, the book ia equally marvelous.Its illustrations are copious, appropriate and carefully executed.The matter in the appendix is of a character indispensable for
reference to all who read, and to all who write with serious pur-pose. The book is in short, one which neither school nor study,library or office, ought to be without.—A'*!* York Times.

market, upon the whole, cloeea stronger than last week. Themoat noteworthy rhange in pricea was in the decline (o-day of

to S{, and Union Pacific to Mi. There were various reports to
aeeount for tbia break, among others that the calling in ol loans
had produced It, but the storks are carried largely on speculativeaccount, and little is known as to the actual causes for the sharpdecline. A statement issued by the Vice President of the Pacifio
Mail Sleamohip Coinpany gives the total net earnings for July andAuKUst at $233,571, and aaya that there haa bet-n a net n-diictlon

Ttoe tiold Market.—Gold has continued scarce for borrowingand strong In price. The rules on loans have ranged from day to
day at high figures, generally reaching 116 or 3-33 per day, but
have not advanced to the extraordinary figures of i, f and even 1
per cent per diem which have been known in former gold manipu-lations. To-day the rates on loans were 1 62, 3-64 and 116 per day.
The shipments of gold from England do not thus far amount to
much, and it does not appear how the supply of our market cansoon be materially increased except by the gradual attraction of
gold to tliis centre by the high premium anil lending rates, or bydisbursements from the Treasury; and of the latter there will belittle, except the regular gold sales, until the payment of Nov.interest.
At the Treasury sale of |1, (100,000 on Thursday the total bids
amounted to $2,553,000. Customs receipts of the yreek were$3,203,000.

ANNUAL REPORTS.
Ohio & Mississippi Railway.
(Tear Ending June 30, 1875.)
Ohio & MisBissippi stock has been one of tbe standard specu-
lative favorites of Wail street lor yeirs past. Ucc-utly there has
been some interest manifested in the company's aifairs on account
of the decline of the common stock to 14j, an unusually low
fijjure for the stock of a company not in default. In the year
ending June 30, 1874, the net earnings of the company were
f 1,007,065, and for the year ending June 30, 1875, the net earn-
ings, as appears by the company's statement given below, were
$803,510. The company paid in November, 1874, tlie scrip pre
viously issued as a dividend on the preferred stock, and which
would liave been due in March, 1875, and also paid a cash
dividend of 3i per cent on the prelerred stock in March, 1875,
these payments for dividends amounting toji;etlier to $280,434.
The company's increase of debt during the year was $249,000 in
second consolidated mortgage bonds, $133,343 in increase of
current liabilities and $63,374 in decrease of assets, a total of
$413,956. In tbe light of subsequent events, it seems doubtful
whether the payment of $140,854 as a dividend in March, 1875,
was good policy, and whether it would not have bnen muchwiser to ttrengthen the company's position by retaining that
amount in the treasury to meet future possibilities. Of the
$3,406,644 given as gross earnings of the road for the year
ending June 30, 1875, the amount of $3,761,810 had been earned
in nine months up to the closo of March, 1875, leaving
$644,834 as the earnings of the three months, April, May andJune, 1875, against $860,018 in the same three months of 1874,
showing a decrease from last year of about $216,000. This wasprobably owing to depression in business, and more especially to
the "war" in freight and passenger rates. ,No monthly reports of
earnings have been furnished since March last. The brief
figures just issued by the company state the current liabilities
(JuneSO, 1875,) at $381,907, of which fUS.Sll were in pay-rolls
due in July.
The Ohio & Mississippi Railway has 893 miles of road on one
of the best routes in the country, making a direct line betweenSt. Louis and Cincinnati, with a. branch to Louisville, and the
cost of road and equipment stands at $35,349,908. This is repre-
sented by 120,000,000 common stock, $4,030,000 preferred slock,
and $11,038,000 debt. At the market value of the company's'
stock and bonds (Sept. 29) the total cost of the road to a purchaser
now would be approximately as follows
:
$20,000,001) common stock at 16 13,200,000•j,U.J0,O0l) preferred ^tock at 38 l,5:jl,'4001.133,<i00 1st moit^age bonds at 90 6,419, 7('0
3,000,000 id mortgage bonds at 70 8,733',500
Total $13,884,600
No statement is made concerning the company's obligations for
the purchase of the Springfield Division, and none of the bondson that division are reported as having been issued. It is nowthree months since the close of the fiscal year to which the
figures refer, and what the company has earned since, the public
is not informed. The interest due Oct. 1 on the second mortgagebonds has been noticed for payment.

GENERAL INVESTMENT NEWS.Alabama & Chattanooga,—A meeting of tlioae creditors and
bondholders represented by Messrs. Chas. L. Frost and others, washeld this week at 58 Broadway. The Times report says: JudgeQrandin, of Mobile, counsel for the trustees, stated that the trus-
tees had had frequent interviews with Mr. Smith, of Mobile, therepresentative of the foreign bondholders, and by an agreementwith him the case had been submitted to Hon. P. Phillips, special
commissioner, who had made a report showing an indebteduHSS
of about one million two nundred thousand dollars prior to the
first mortgage bonds. The court, by frequent decrees and orders,
recognized this indebtedness, "rhe speaker, therefore, advised
those present and the creditors in general to come to some under-standing and comply with tlie terms of the trustees' bid before
the 11th prox., in default of which a resale of the road must takeplace to pay off the court liens. Chairman Frost said that the
sum total required from the bondholders to get leaal possession
of the road from the trustees, including past due interest, was in
round figures, $609,464 67. He had been prejudiced against Mr.Stanton's management of the road, but Mr. Phillips' report
showed that gentlemen to have done the beat that could be done.
Mr. Stanton said he was one of the trustees of the road, and thetrustees had, so far as he knew, endeavored to act honestly, butthey had never been able to get the bondholders to do anything.
He gave a forcible account of the deplorable management andwaste of property on the line, and concluded by saying that the
road is now worth more than people have any idea of, and headvised those interested to come to some agreement and get it outof the courts.
, Mr. T. W. Snagge, a London lawyer, who has recently como to
this country as the representative of the first mortgage bondhold-ers, the large majority of whom are residents of England, Prance,
Germany and Holland, said that while there was no cause to fear
that the interests of his clients would suffer in any event, there
was nothing that they desired more than to have the litigation
settled. It had cost them a fortune. They have recently, he said,
arrived at a thorough knowledge of the condition of aflfairs of the
road, and have already taken steps to secure their rights. Theyhave deposited their bonds and have combined to get what theycan out of the wreck. They intend to have back the money theyhave invested in whatever way may appear most profitable. Mr.Snagge, therefore, declined to commit himself to anything the
meeting might do without consultation, but he held out the hope
that, so far as the first mortgage bondholders were concerned, anarrangement might be effected. On motion a committee of three,
consisting of Messrs. Charles L. Frost, John Sickles and JosephMorse, was appointed to meet the representatives of the first
mortgage bondholders and endeavor to effect a compromise.
Alabama Finances.—From a communication to the Mont •
gomery Advertiser, by an old and respected citizen of the Stite of
Alabama, himself a large tax payer, we quote as follows. Hesays of the constitutional convention :
" The composition of the Convention, all things considered, will
favorably compare with any like assembly in any State. I knowmany personally, and I felt when they assembled that nothingwould be adopted, but what I could cheerfully and willingly
concur in. It may be that I am mistaken in the construction to
be placed on the ordinance, prohibiti«g the State from incurring
any liability, by the issuing or endorsing of bonds. So far as it
provides for withholding its credit for future liabilities I agree,
but it would seem by the opposition to Mr. Oates' resolution that
it is the intention of the convention to repudiate the legal and just
claims of bond holders, the holders of which intimnte to the com-missioners that they are disposed to compromise on fair and just
terms. I am aWare that our people have not pro.spered underBadieal rule, and may seem to regard the entire debt as of iheir
creation, but such is not the fact, and 1 feel confident, that whenthe people ehall understand that the commissioners are treating

Lexington A Big Sandy.—The C(n/n«r/oM r;w»i says- A com-mittee ot gentlemen to ccutinlt with tbe citizens of LaniBville inrespect to the propriety of raiding a joint subscription to completetbe Lexington & Big Sandy Uailroad, has lately been in that city.
It seems that there are about eighty eight miles of the road to becompleted between Mt. Sterling and the moutli of the Big SandyRiver before tbe connection can lie made. When completed it
will connect at Lexington with the Short-line or L. C. & L. RR.,and at the mouth of the Big Sandy River with the Chesapeake AObio Railroad, making tlie distance from Louisville to Richmondabout 625 miles. It is claimed that the completion ol this road,
by the filling up of this gap of eighty eight miles, will materially
diminish the distance between Louisville and tide-water, andshorten both time and disunee in the matter of foreign exporta-tion. Richmond proposes lo suiMoribe $500,000 if Louisville will
give $500,000. and Central Kentucky will liuiah ut> with tberemaining $200,000. Tbere is to be an operating ba-iis of
$3,500,000. and after the $I,.500,000 has been raised, in tlio
manner aliove stated, the remaining $1,000,000 is proposed to beraised by a first mortgaue bond upon tbe whole line. It ia
claimed that I/iui!4ville nill be brought nearer to both theAtlantic and Pacific seaboards through connection with theexisting railroad lines, when fliis railroad shall have been com-plaied. and that freights to New York, for instance, would betransported at a cost not to exceed $1 50 per ton, and perhapseven lea*. Perfectly responsible parties are willing, it !> stated,
to eoaatroot the road, a* surveyed and estimated, and take 23 percent in Oral mortgage bonds of the r>ad in part payment. Tberesources o(«tbe country from Louisville tu Licking River are in
a manner undeveloped and are unsurpassrd in resp<-ct to fertility
of soil, and h<>yond that poiut the road will pass through one of
the finest mineral ami timbered regions on the continent.

New York, Sent. 27, 1875.
To iht President and Direetort of the Pacific Mail Steamship Co.
:
Gentlemen— Important interests of this company requiring
my teTiporary absence in Europe, I have deemed it advisable to
present for your consideration the following statements :
Immediately on a-isuming the control of the affairs, I endeav-ored to systematize the accounting department, so as to be able
to arrive at the monthly earnings and expenses This, throughthe efforts ot the head of that department, lias been so far accom-plished that I am enabled to lay before the board the results of
the last two months :

The total net earnings for two mouths are $232,531 31, anincrease of $147,299 94 over the corresponding monihs of 1874.
The general financial results of the company's business since
Marcli 1, 1875, are as follows :

in view of tlie foregoing statement, that the credit ot the companyhas so steadily and materially improved.
Upon the completion of the newships at Chester,the Australianand China lines will be fully equipped with new iron propellers.
To the ecanomy resulting from the general introduction of thesemodern screw steamers upon the lices of the company, thesegratifying results ate mainly due.

Ralci^ll & Anglista Air Line.—This company recently ten-dered a further instalment of $230,000 State bonds to the Treas-urer of North Carolina in exchange lor an equal amount of thecompany's bonds held by the State.
Sontliern Pacific of California.—Upwards of 4,000 men areat work oa the construction of this line, S.OUO of them on an un-finished gap of one hundred miles between the Tulare and LosAni;eles divisions. It may be doubted if any other corporation in
the country is pushing new railroad work with such vigor or withsuch vast outlays ol money. The Southern Pacific forms thewestern portion of the 32d and 35ih parallel roads across the con-tinent. Over 400 miles of the road are now in operation and 20Omiles more are mos'ly graded. The Los Angeles division will be-
united with the central portion next summer, by which time therails, which S'e now some fifty miles southeast of San Bernandl-no. will be laid to the Colorado river. This great work has beencarried on with unexampled vigor, and by using steel rails, dur-
ing the past two years of general financial depression.

The market for provisions has been feverish and unsettled,

Oalvemonli included tndtanola. Ac; nnder the head of Karfolt Is Inclnded CllyPoint. Ac.The market for cotton on the spot was quite dull early in the
week, and quotations were farther reduced, until ou Tuesday, mid-dling uplands stood at 13Jc. At this point some degree of stoadinesa
was developed, the inquiry becoming more general, and, in the face
of a declining market at Liverpool and excessive receipts at the
ports, prices ruled steady on Wednesday. Gold also advanced,but as it was attended with great depression in exchange, it hadno effect. On Thursday, Liverpool reported a partial decline,
but this market was steady, though quiet. Today, quotationswere revised ; high grades were reduced Jc, and the mediumgrades 116!§lle., but the low grades were unchangei. For future
delivery, some irregularity was developed on Monday. Theopening was weak for the early months, and they de?lined l-16c.,
but the later months remained steady, and at the close the decline
in the early mouths was recovered, and the later months ad-
vanced l-16c. But on Tuesday and Wednesday depression pre-
vailed. The weather, as reported to the Cotton Exchange, hadbecome milder, and very favorable to tlie complete maturity of
the crop, as well as to a reasonable progress in picking. Indica-
tions of hostilities between England and China were also aweakening influence, and the prolonged troubles between the
operatives and mill owners at Fall River had a tendency in thesame direction. Still, the early months were weakest, and Sep-
tember, BO far from indicating a " corner,"- closed at 13 1 16c. . adecline of |c. from last Friday. On Thursday, there was a re-
covery ot fully l-lOc, without special influences in that direction,
except a demand to cover contracts. The effort of the mercan-tile interests of Great Britain to prevent hostile demonstrationstoward China probably had some effect also. To-day, the marketopened stronger, but, under free receipts and oiher depressinginfluences, the improvement was lost, and after 'Change the
market was weaker, sales being at 13 13-16c. for October, 128c.
for November, 12 31-33c. for December, 12 35-32c. for January,13 15-16c. for February, 13 5-32c. for March, 13Jc. for April, and13 13 16c. for June. The total sales for forward delivery for theweek are 144,300 bales, including free on board. For im-mediate delivery the total sales foot up this week 5,041 bales,

eartalo limits, aa legitimate a branch of the trade aa opetationaIn spot cotton. This Summer the planter has in rerj many caaeathus sold his crop st a figure eoasiderably above what he couldnow realise. And at all tlmee the manufactarer haa by this meansthe opportunity to fix the price at which he can proC'ire theraw mater.al every month of the year tiefore ho maiteii contractsfor gooda. Bat, besides traniaetions ol this character, there maatalways be maeh that is more purely speculative, and any attemptto root out ap<<culation from any commercial market woul i Lie
fblly. So long as there are crops to be raised and auch uncertainelements as the cr>'agi>, the weather, the preeent condiiion, andtbe consumption entering into the problem, we abali find thoeewho. iraaiipg to their iurormatlon and foivalgbt, will trade on theprobabilities. Within proper limits even thisVls desirable andlegitimate. The merchant who, by greater dil^r^oce and care ininforming himself, becomes capable of making a wiser judgmentihoa another ia entitled to use that knowledge in a proper way,aad will always obtain an advantage over his lees watchful andless discerning neighbor. But there is a class of transactionswhich u> us do not seem to preeent any redeeming fea-tores. We refer to the peraistent selling of cotton todepress tbe price, aad to tiie cornering of cotton ani tbeattempt to do so—an instanceof which we bad the past mootii
—
lo ralee that price. Cotton la now nndoabtedly low—intrinsicallylow ; and If there was any legitimate way ol giving It a highervalue we woald be glad to aaaist in doing it. But we believe it
la beet for all concerned that natural causes so liir as poesiblosbonld be left to act freely and produce their natural results. Inthis way, and only In this way, can there be any eert«inty aboutthe market, or any lafe baais lor one's desiingn. Of course it is
Impoasible le keep out every disturbing force ; for instsnce,weather reeeida will always be exaggerate<i or twisted to suittbe plana of tbe speculator. These, however, and oilier similartaflaeocos, the eloee obeerrer eaa allow lor ; bat the overweight-log the market with short sales, or tbe screwing it up by a coruertwist, are alike haroiful to legiilnate trade, aad those who losela sach battles will find bat few syupatbiaan."

THE DRY GOODS TRADE.FntDAT, p. M., Oct. 1, 1876.
There has been a large influx of buyers from various sections
of the interior during^ the past week, and domestic commission
merchants have effected a liberal distribution of staple and fancy
cotton and woolen productions. The recurrence of Hebrewholidays kept an influential class out of the market at the close
of the week, and somewhat lessened the volume of business,
which, however, has been large in the aggregate amount. West,
em trade has operated with increased freedom, and numerousre-orders received from the South, which indicates an active
distribution in that quarter. There has been a further shrinkage
in values, and many of the mo.it important lots of both cottons
and woolens which changed hands were placed at a markedconcession from previous holding rates. Low prices have stimu-
lated the jobbing trade into increased activity for many deacrip-
tiODB of manufactured goods, and very heavy sa'es were made by
the leading houses on the slightest possible margin of profit.
The Fall River mills, whose operatives have lately been on
strike, have partially resumed production, and this has unsettled
the print cloth market, rendering quotations almost nominal.
Many leading woolen mills have discontinued the manufacture
of heavy woolens, and are now running on Spring weights, sam-
ples of which have already been shown in exceptional cases by
their agents. Imported goods have been in steady demand, and
the high premium on gold has imparted firmness to prices.
Domestic Cotton Goods.—There has been continued irregu-
larity in brown and bleached cottons and further price reductions
have been made on some of the most popular brands of each.
Several makes of wide sheetings were reduced 2Je. per yard, and
the following bleached shirtings were marked down ^c, viz: Fruit
of the Loom, Lonsdale, Masonville, White Rock, &c., and Black-
stone A.A. and Hope were reduced -Jc. Pepperell fine browns
declined ic, and other makes were quietly closed out on private
terms. Jobbing rates for brown and bleached cottons were very
irregular and not uufrequently below agents package prices.
Cotton flannels have been very active and low to medium grades
of nearly all leading makes are sold to arrive. Cheviots have also
been in good demand, but tickings, denims, stripes and osnaburga
have moved slowly and in limited amounts. Corset jeans and
satteens have been in fair request, and grain bags have been
active in jobbers hands at low figures. Carpet warps, yarns,
cotton batts and twines were severally in fair demand at unchang-
ed prices. Plaid prints and fancy madders of the most tasteful
styles were taHen in moderate lots by Western and local jobbers,
but chocolates remained quiet with a weakening tendency, which
culminated in the reduction of Richmonds to 7ic. Richmondmadders were marked down to 8e., and Stand.ard grays to SJc.
I'rints were largely sold by jobbers in liberal amounts, and the
best \toTk commanded 8Jc., while inferior styles were offered at
from 6@7ic. Ginghams continued active and firm in view of the
light supply of standard makes.
Domestic Woolen Goods.—There has been a better demand
for men's wear woolens, and some .sales of fancy cassim^res have
been made in lots of 300 or 300 pieces to close out indifferent styles,
in order to accomplish which low figures have been named. Heavy
worsted coatings were in steady request, and fair orders were
placed for spring weights. Overcoatings have been more active
in rough makes as well as plain beavers, and the supply has been
materially reduced within the last few weeks. Cloths, doeskins
and satinets have been iaactive, tmd Kentuckyjeans moved slowly ' PmMUeton do ".'. u
from first hands although jabbers' sales were fairly satisfactory.
Repellents aud cloakings were in steady request and liberal sales
of flannels and blankets were effected by both agents and jobbers.
Dress goods continued in brisk request and sales reached a liberal
aggregate amount. Felt skirts were active and low grades were
advanced in price 'oy manufacturers). Sliawls were in irregular
demand. Low and tine grade Ottoman shawls moved slowly but
medl 1111 qualities were in fair request, and woolen makes wore
moderately active. Faucy hosiery and Cardigan jackets were active
but shirts and drawers, and wool hose and half ho!!e continued
dull.
Foreign Dry Goods.—There has been a steady although not
large movement in staple fabrics and dres.-i goods from importers
hands, and jobbing sales have been fairly satisfactory in all de'
partments. Black silks in low and medium grades have been in
improved request, and of these the suppler is moderate. Colored
and fancy silks have also been in fair demand and velvets have
shown further improvement. Black and colored cashmeres and
merinos were in good demand and firm, and black alpacas and
mohairs were sold in fair amounts. Fancy dress goods continued
active and the supply is much smaller than usual. Linen goods
were in steady but limited demand, and white goods ruled quiet.
Woolen goods for men's wear dragged in importers' hands, but
were distributed to a moderate extent by cloth jobbers. Theauction sales of the week were not of special importance, and
have not sffected values in any way.
The importations ot dry goods at this port for the week «ndingS,jpt. 30, 187,"i, and the corresponding weeks of 1874 and 1813have been as follows :
