Tho Natlonat Banks aro ondoavoring to koop profly strong, bocauso thoy hiave boon oxpooting 6 onll from $lio Comp- trollor for o statemont, for soveral wooks past, though thero fs no moro renson for oxpeoting It mow than thoro was a weok or twoago, As far mg tho futuro can bo foroscon novw, thero scoma no reason to fear but that monoy will remain tolorably onsy all this spring and summer. In tho open matkot, monoy Is to bo hind on prime -collaterals at 10 por cent, aud whilo somo of tho "banks aro buying outeido papor at consldorably ‘higher ratos than that, thoy aro also offoring to Joan on oall at 10 and oven at 8 por cont. | Owing toan incroaso in the country demand for ourroncy, and partly slso toan_incroase of ®exchango, tho prico of Now York oxchango drop- pod from par yostorday to G0c por $1,000 dis- count to-day. TIE BPRING TRADE of Ohicago has not boon up to the expectations ©f our wholeualors and jobbors. Oonsiderin tho_extromo backwardness of tho soason, it «conld mot well bo othormiso. But whilo many of tho merchauts complain of » smallor volume of trade than Hma Jrobably would Lave Lad If tho wosther b son moro propiious, wre hoat of no such fu- timations of an entiro falluro of tho spring trado a8 como to us from New York, Thore, tho Iato- ‘nosa of tho - sonaon has prevonted any domand foran important and oxponsivo olnss of dry gooda Intended for tho intormodiato weathor bo- twoen wintor and summer, Tho advance in tho ning of tho year has alio doranged the caloulations of maxy of tho importors, nd involves considorablo Iossos in casos whoro importers had sold goods to ous- tomorn 6omo months sgo on & basis of grocn- backs worth 87 to 88 conts on the dollar, and mow find that thoy must replaco fhom with groonbacka worth only 84 to 85 conts on tho dollar. A highor price for gold implion s lowor prico for tho commodittes ox- chauged for it, tnless the onrrenoy prices aro ‘prompt to rise in accordance with the advanco iu gold, which 1s not ofton tho cato, 1t troqusntly requires somo montha bofors pricos of commodi- tios riso in accordanco with tho rise in the prico of gold. Tho prices of our products, which are fixad n gold in tho gront consumors’ marksts, o Liverpool, and fluctuste from day to day du all the markots of this country in accord- auco with tho fuctuntions in Livorpool follow tho prico of gold vory quickly. Bul with manufactured sud imported goods it is difforont. \Whon gold ndyauces rapidly thelr riccs log bohind, and for a timo thoy aro lowor in gold in ' this- country than beforo the ndvanco in gold bogan, and vice verss, whon gold declinos rapldly and stendily, their moro slowly-moving prizcs mako tho sctunl gold valuo of the curront pricos of imported and manutacturod goods highor than it should be, 1t follows, thioraforo, that during the procesa of 1ibo in gold the importers and manufacturors auffor, aud during Lo procoss of & deolino thoy gain moro than thoir appareat, profita.
