FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. MONEY MARKET. ‘Tavrspay, Jan. 5—6 P.M. ‘The activity in the stock market has increased every @ay since New Year's, The transactions to-day were ua- mpeally large; but prices were not so well sustained. ‘There wore heavy operations ia Nicaragua, and the beara made 9 dead set against it. Five thousand shares were weld od twelve months, sellers’ option, at 25 a 25% per eeat. This looks like » most determined opposition; but it ‘will avail nothing. The bear interest against Nicaragua { probably greater than against any other fancy on the Mat. Thejreport just issued—extracts from which we give Delow—confirms the statements we have ‘recently made Telative to the company’s earnings and expencitures, and M@ will without doubt trouble very much those who are Iargely short of the stock. The New Haven Railroad Dompany have passed ita January divicend. This maakes the second since the Norwalk disaster. The @Hect of this delinquency is seen in the price of Mhe stock at the board today. There must be Wemething wrong in the management of this company, $e require the suspension of two dividends to make good the loss by that accident. The New Haven road probably feansporis more passengers then any other in the coun- fey; and if it does not earn its dividends there is no value te railroad property. We have never had much faith in weeh stocks as investments, and the facts developed by ‘the policy pursued by the New Haven Railroad Company strengthen the opinion we have so frequently expressed @m that subject. Parker Vein has improved since the ‘@isporal of » portion of its property. The affairs of the ompany, in a financial point of view, have undoubtedly been much improved by securing the payment of the debt. The company had become too extended in ita operations, and cothing but a contraction could have raved its stock from much greater depreciation. Mining stocks were _ Quite active at the regular board to cay. North Carolina Oopper brought 5, cash; Gold Hill, 3; Lehigh Zine, 834. The bonds of the Panama Railroad Company, amounting to 91,478,000, were taken yesterday, at rates ranging from 2 to O74; per cent—the bulk at 92 per cent aad a fraction.

The extraordinary impetus which our foreign trade ex- perie noed during the yeer just past, was certainly not the result of commercial integrity, but must have been the consequence of an almost universal and total misappre- hehsion of our requirements and necessitities. We are not oblivious to our increased and constantly increasing wants, nor to the growing desire for elegance and luxury which alvays has its rice and progress in accumulation and prosperity; but we are ata loss to anderstand the cause or causes which increase our foreign importaticns, within the limits of a single year, from $127,441,304 to the enormous sum of $191,668,573. We can readily un- derstand why the importations of the last year should be largely increased over those of the preceding year, but conjecture fails us when we attempt to account for the whole. The prices of metals and various other commodi- ties have greatly increased since the close of the year 1852; the Crystal Palace exhibition has allured the products of otber countries to our market to an unusual extent; the requirements of each State for the promotion and exten- sion of internal improvements, and the combination of circumstances which w:uaily augment trade, only demon- strate » partial justification of our much sugmented ecmmerce.

In former years thia department of our trade only expe- rienced moderate fluctuations, and wan kept within rea. sonable limite; but in 1858, as if by some new inspira- ticp, our imports of dry goods were increased 52 per cont over those of the preseding year. Thin is certainly without ite parallel in the history of our foreign com- merce, The value of cotton exported during the year will amount to about $10@000,000, and yet nearly this whole’ sum wil! be required to pay for the dry goods im- ported into this port during the year 1868. We neo not, por will our limite allow us to point out the evil conse. quences which must follow this inflated o urse of trade, We trust, however, thet traders will take warning in time, and thus avert those disasters which must be the eonsequence of a continuance of their extravagant im- portations.” Oar country, with all its extended territory and increased population, requires but a moderate yearly inorease fn trace, and mere local causes, of at least doubtfal utility, should not, as they have ias measure daring the past year, exercise am influence over our foreign importations, We are gisd to notice <hat the ratio of increase apparen’ in the firet half of fast year was not continued to the close, and we tra :t that ¢he de- crease wil) continue until the dry goods trate reaches a basis as subdstantis] as the importance of this braaeh of business requires. la railroai iron, the increase in 1868 over the importa of 1862 was $2,206,218, Tae system of inverna! improve- ments now rapidly opening up the interior, and de- veloping the sgricuitara!, commercial, mineral and me- chanical wealih of oar Sopthers and Western Staten, doubtless justifies to its fullest extent the increase in this branch of trade. It is more than probable that the beavy importations of railroad iren will be maintained during the yeer. The numerous roads projected and im the course of construction, will requise the heavy importation of metals. ‘The traffic in coffee, segara, fruits, tea, wines and Hquors, during the year was large, and the increase appa- rent in other branches of trade was fully maintained in this, The large importation of the various articles of luxury, above enumerated, furnishes an uamistakable index to our growing weath; for with prosperity grows the desire for luxury, which adversity renders dormant. The effects ef our extended commerce have been delete. rious im various branches of trade, but disadvantages have been manifested in an entirely unlooked for quarter. ‘The treasury of the United States is fall to repletion; and the very astute head of the Treasury Department advises its depletion by means of a redyction of the duties levied on copper, ealt, &c. Without intending to be facetious, we would intimate that a renewal of the Secretary’s finan- ciering, or rather buccantering operations in Wall street, would deplete the treasury sufficiently, without the pro- posed reduction in the duties imposed on copper, salt, etc., and the consequences would not be se entirely detri-. mental to the country at large. We must, therefore, re- gard the excessive importations of last year as political as well as commercial izcubus, and though the former is buts mental ailment, the latter, as a body politic, is foroed to bear the “‘brunt and usage of time.’” The revenue from cash duties received at this port will be found in the annexed statements:— Case Dorms Recurven at Nzw Yorn.

Had our imports of the last year been commensurate with our actual requirements, and no more, the balance of trade now against us would have been reduced to « more bagatelle, if not completely reversed. The increase in our exports is by no means of ‘an ephemeral character, and they will continue to aug- ‘ment as the wealth of our country becomes developed. ‘The increase during the last three or four months of the year was marked, and there is every evidence that it will be centinued. ‘The prospect fcr an active and profitable trade during the present year is highly encouraging, notwithstanding, in some respects, the market is too much over-burdened for a healthy business, The annexed table, prepared by Mr. J.
