The movemont of curroucy, a8 compared with past yonrs, hos boen slmply immonso, and, if { woro not that the railronde aro blocked with the enormous quan- tity of graiu in transit, the rocolpts of grain, and porticularly wheat, would bo ovon greator in pro- portion to former yoars than tho movement of curronoy bas boon. The domand for small bills is still so gront that a prominm of 600 por $1,000 was offored by somo bauls to-dsy for large amounts of $10a and 8208, paymont to bo mado in bills of $100 and upward, Now York oxchange wns lowor again to-day, in congequonce of the ronowed pressuro for cur- rency, ond salos woro made at $1.00 por $1,000 discount.

TUE GRANGEDS AND TIHE MONOPOLY OF NATIONAL BANK CIRCULATION, Somo time ago tho Farmors' and People's Anti- Bonopely party In this Blato adopten, a4 tha third lflnuk in their platform, tho following in xegard Lo National Bank circulation : ‘Wo are fn favor of tho presont banking systom bolug o made that all men, by glving the proper sccurity, vhould v cqual privilcass, v it npyly and do: mand shall regulato our money markot, . Tho foregoing hoars evidence of the popular orror of confounding the supply of currenoy with the supply of losuablo ~ funds called *‘monoy.” ‘Tho” framers of the above want o chiango in tho supply of currency * so that supply and domand shiall rogulato our monay market.,” The Grangers nro unquestionably Tight in thelr opposition to the monopoly clauso of the National Curreney act which restricts its ‘volumo to $354,000,000, but thoy are aldo as un- quostionably wrong in supposiug that the supply of currency has anything to do with regulating tho supply of loauable funds, or, in othor words, the * money markot.” 2 In councotion with the above plank in th Grangere’ platform, 1t scoms thet somobody 1ina recently boon propounding questions to tho Comptroller of the Curroncy to nscertain whptu- or, in his opinion, thoNationa] Banks theingolves would_gonernlly‘opposo o bill ta ool this monopoly clause. Tho Comptrolier statos that, drom his information, be I% of the opinion that the majority of tho leaing banks would oppose auch repoal. The feason amsigned for this oppo- sition on !hir part would not be so much from L5 Tact that tho right to issuo notes is o profita- blo monapoly, as that the ropoal of the section ‘would euthorize an_ovoritsuo of curroncy, thua flurreciutlng the valuo of thoir own notos, ‘Ihe forogoing ronson nssignod by the Comp- troller for tho n]l’,[lnl!ifiou of tho National Banks to tho abolition of tho monopoly clause in the National Currono{ act is, wo think, without sufliciont foundation in fact. Asloug a8 we are in the present condition of suspension of specie prymonts, the banks have no intorest in provnntilu; the deprecintion of their own notes. Ou the contrary, the banks mako the most out of their oirculation whon gold is high, bocauso the galdintorest they recoiva on tha -bonds deposited to secure the circulation brings thew in a largo amotint in cursoncy. Ibis prob- ablo that tho real secrot of thoe opposition of the existing National Banks to the romoval of the monoply clauso in regardto circulation s tho fear that tho inereaso of National Bavk cir- culation aud the withdrawal of greonbacks will 80 ulmugo the proportions of National Bank notes and greenbaclis as to make o promium on groonbncks ovor bauk notes, Tho instent thot this condition of thinga is reached the gold yalue of greonbacks would rige, and the redemption of National Bauk notes, instend of being merel; nominal, s uow, would Luvo o be practical, an ovory National Bauk would Lo obligad to pro- puro stonce for apecio rosumption. Tho Na- tionul Banks aro, without excoption, opposed to Bpocio resumption, bocause they know that tho burdon of sustaining tho ourroncy at par would fall on them, jf the prosont monopoly that pro- tocts them were removed. BAILROAD EARNINGS IN ATGUST, AND FOR THE LAST ESGHT MONTHS. _Wo havo recoived from tho Now York Finan- cial Chronicle the advance proof of its com- pllation of ruilvond esrnings, in Augush, aud for hio cight months ending Sept. 1.

Yot itis a noteworthy fact that dividonds oro in nearly all casos smaller than usual this year, and alko that, for some causo, tho railro aro ‘“‘hard up™ for money, Mer- chantg hero in Chicago who sell the Western ronds their supplies find it nlmost impossible to collect what is due thom, The reason assigned in tho cagos of tho most prominent Weatern roads is, that they are building oxtonsions, lay- ing side-tracks, building now iron bridges in place of old woodon ones, replacing wooden oul- verts with atone ones,—in short, sponding tho groat bulk of thoir nob enrnings in roconstruct- Tng, improving, and extouding their roads, COMPARATIVE COST OF ENGLISH AND AMERIOAN TATLROADS.
