e FINANCE AND TRADE. The Prodoce Markets Fatrly Active—Provistons Stronger—Pork nnd Heats Wanted, Breadstuff's Eastor—Tho Wheat Deal Affected by the Rainfall. FINANCIAL, Financtal affatrs during tha past weet worked smoothly In all departments, Discount rates were stendy nt 6@8 per cent, with a fair demand for money. Tho supply, however, was abundant for all really good customers. New York ex- change was weak at tho begiuning of the weok, selling between banks at F0c@S1.00 per $1,000 discount; but towards tho close It graditally be- onme firmer, though 6c were the best figures rollers could realize, ‘Tho range might perhaps bo quoted nt WO@iho. The general and merenntile business of the olty is healthy and netive. Merchants and manufacturers capecinily aro busy, and com: plaintsor dull times ars among tho things of the past. In Tur Thrive of Fob. 23 wa presonted: n etatement show!ng in brief tho condition of the Tron Mountoin Rattrand, and the impossibility of a payment of diyldonds on the stock while tho intercat on the income bonds wag still do- forred. ‘The annual report of the Company for the year onding Deo. 81, 1878, has Just been issucds ‘The grosa eurnings wero Operating and general e: 285,200,011 ONE {300,655 paymont of inter- est on tho divisional mortgagu bonds wus re- sumed July Jin full, and has been continued, +g + Tho payment of interest on tho income pénda, uindor the agreemont, will bo made only when orerei! by tho Board of Directors, and tho Present Bonrd has not thought proper to order Buch payment to be made out of tho carnings of 1870." After reading thls reault {tis difficult to 8co what prospect thore Is of a dividend on tho Btock, yot it ts selling nt Si@ss. The Sun Francieco papors report two vory im: portant railway evonts as transpiring during tho week onding March 20. ‘Tho most {important was tho completion of the Southern Pacific Ratlway to Titeson, in Contral Arizona, nenrly 1,000 miles soutbenst of San ronolaco, This road has now reuched nearly as far enst ns tho Central Pacille toOgden., The Mayorot Tuesun, In communi: cating on this most {mportant achlevement, clalma that his town $9 333 yeurs old ns a pueblo. This would make it one df tho oktest towns in tho United States, being nearly 100 years older than New York and Boston. It hns now somo 5,000 or 0,000 inhabitants. The old Spaniards cs- tablished {t sn Cathollo mission, and, ‘until the mining Interests began to attract ut- tention half a dozou years ago, it had no other importunce. Tho rulway will, of course, wake it up from the slocp of centurics, Wo nre not sure of tho distance betweon the Southorn Pa- effic and tho Atchison, Topekn & Santa F6,—now atSanta Fé, New Moxico,—but they cannot bo much, if any, more than 400 milesapart. Look out for sharp work during tho coming summer, and we should not bo surprised to seo another railway Hno across tho Continent before tho Ist of January, 1881,—a consummation devoutly to be wished. ‘Tho other {a tho brenking through of tho Inst and largest tunnel between San Francisco and Banta Cruz, Tho town is tho’ main seaport ‘watering-pince for the people of San Francisco, —being to that city what Long Branch or Now- port’ls to New York. The journcy over the Const ange by stage wus bard and tedious,and tho opening of rond in about three weeks will ‘be a great boon to the people of San Franclsco, xew'a OILTANG: Onzraxs, Ma ht oxchnoge on ney.
