A variation of a fraction of one per cent is realised from day today; but there are no indications of any perma- nent or important improvement for some time to come. At the first board to-day Harlem fell off 34 per cent; Norwich and Worcester 3g; Morris Canal 1; Farmers’ Loan advanced 34; Pennsylvania 5's 14; Long Island, Reading and Canton closed at prices current yesterday. There were sales to some extent of Harlem. At the second board, the operations were confined, principally to Harlem, at prices current in the morning The receipts of the ‘Long Island Railroad Company, for the first fifteen days in November, 1847, were $5.960 08 against $3,694 50 for thecorresponding period in 1846, showing this year an increase of $2,265 58—equal to about sixty-one per cent. The revenue received for duties, in some of the prin- cipal ports, as far as heard from, for the first two weeks of November, 1947, was $856,693, sgainst $348,497 for the corresponding period in 1846—showing an increase of $508,196. This increase is under the tariff of 1845. We learn that a large portion of the payments into the Cus- tom House on account of duties, is in specie, notwith- standing the decline in Treasury notes. ‘The grading of the Oswego and Syracuse Railroad is going forward with the greatest rapidity. About seven miles below Baldwinsville are now nearly ready for the superstructure. Jt is expected that the road will be completed by the 4th of July, 1848, The Washington takes out $189,972 in speci smaller amount ‘than anticipated. The London and Havre packet carried out about $200,000. ‘The effect of the commercial revulsion in England Upon prices for our breadstuffs, will not be so great, and not #0 severely felt,eson our cotton. We have never depended upon Great Britain to any extent, for markets for our four and grain, and have not, therefore, placed ourselves in a position to be influenced materially by the absence of any important demand from thet quar- ter. Our domestic consumption will be sufficiently large fo: tae next six months, to keep prices for breadstuffs when it is brought upon the markets, there must bea very great depreciation in prices. ‘The only way to pre- vent this great depreciation in value, is to keep it out of sight—for the producers to keep it in their granaries—and we doubt even if that will keep up prices. It is pretty | well known that the production has been greater than ever before known, and sufficient will come upon the market to settle prices down to low point. The aggre- gate value of the grain crops of the United States, for | 1847,will not be less than $1,000,000,000, at present pr ces. | Should there be a depreciation often per cent, inthe ab- | sence of a foreign demand to any extent, the differ- | ence in value to the producers will be $100,000,000 | (one hundred millions of dollars.) an amount equal to nearly one half of the liabilities of the sue- pended houses in Great Britain. a what « vast difference in the aggregate, » trifling | reduction in prices makes, tity of breadstufls exported is not of so much conse- quence as the effect the shipments have upon prices at | home. This is « very important matter for the consi- deration of those engaged in the trade,and for producers | generally, sad shipments of breadstuffs should be en- coursged in every possible way.

It is teus that the production of the past year hes been im- monee, partly with an eye to an extensive European dé- mand; but the erops have not boon go large but that ‘we can hold easily, what we do not consume and export tour regularforeign markets. Our agriculturaliats ge- nerally are rich, aad the tevasity with which they keep ba2k tupplies, in the tace of existing high prices, shows that they are able to hold.

Che exportation of such an insignificant portion of the production, exerted an immense influence upon prices for the whole crop in market, or even that in the hands he producers. Had it not been for the shipment of even that small amount, our own markets would have neon regulated entirely by the demand for domestic consumption, and in the face of the full supply, prices voust have ruled very low. It is a well knewn fict, that ® small surplus maintained upon the market, sinks the money value of the whole quan- tity to an extent exceeding many times the total value of that eurplus. It was upon this well under- etood principle that the Duteh Kast India Com- pany formerly consumed a supposed surplus of spices, in er (@ maintain the value of the whole crop.
