MONEY MARKET. Weoxrapay, Deo, 16—6 P.M. ‘The stock market was all off to-day, Tho transactions were more limited, and the tendency throughout was downward. There are mavy more sellers in the street, end buyers are by no means plenty. Speculators for a rise are pretty well filled up, and thelr purchases on time are principally buyer's option. This gives them control of the stock, and shuts off all chances of large lots being turned in upon them at a day’s notice.

Bank stocks have been in better demand since the re- sumption of specie payments, Several banks have State atreet, within the present week declared dividends, and | as investments they aro restored to favor again. While ander a pension it was not deemed good policy to pay dividends, and many stockholders became discouraged, not Knowing when a resumption would take place. A great change has taken place withia the past few days. The resumption of spooje payments in confirmed, and no one doubts its permanency. The banks have not suffered so seriously hy the revulsion, thos far, as is generally supposed, It je trae they had a good deal of paper protested, but in most instances its endorse- ments protected it, and the actaal losses to the banks will in the aggregate be comparatively small, Bank stocks are steadily improving in actual and market value, and © few tonths will bring most of them up again to the old points, For some time our banking institations will managed with a gremt deal of prudence. It will, we trust, be years before they again get into such an ex ponded condition as marked their eperations fur motths previous to the present revulsion. It cannot be expected that they will make as much money under an ord.wary discount line as ina more expanded state, but they will be jos liable to dactuations, and in the ent the stock holders will get just about as much profit. At all events, what they do get will do them more good, Mach depends upon the course of our banks in restoring business gone rally to a sound and healthy condition again, A gradual ‘and steady expansion upon a proper basis, and a policy that will check all speculation, will do the « large & world of good AL the second board the morkat war stowdy, tat as co well known that the afternoon transaction now what are eatied waehes, the prices reported are ne pil fd ae Hot entitled te sideration.

It was sub- sequently discovered that the right of the company to inoreaso ita capital stock was doubtful, and the money having been expended in construction, &c.,@ meeting of the stockholders was held, at which a resolution was adopted recommending the directors to rescind the five per cent extra dividend. Ata subsequent meoting of the ‘directors this was done, The ten per cent oash dividend is payable on the 24 of January prox. ‘The receiver of the Mechanics’ Banking Association has announced a final dividend of fifty per cent and interest on the claims allowed against the Mechanics’ Banking As- sociation.

We seo by a telegraphic despatch from Washington that the Finance Committee of the Senate have introduced a Dill authorizing the issue of Treasury notes. It does not appear what rate of interest has been determined upon, but if anything above a merely nominal rate is fixed, it is simply a fatal mistake, and the object in view will not be accomplished, The last issue of Treasury notes bore one- sixth of one per cent interest, and nearly one huntred thousand dollars of them are still outsanding. To allow them to enter into the channels of com. merce, @ rate of interest is necessary only to avoid legal difficulties as regards currency. If they bear a rate of intereet of even three or four per cent, they will be abso.’bed by large capitaliats, and pass into strong boxes und pocketbooks as fastas issued. Tho governmont can raise at once twenty millions of dollars free from expense, and at the same time do | the commercial community a great service by furnishing facilities for exchange operations. By all means fix the rato of interest so small that it will | not enter into calculation in passing the notes from hand | to hand. Mr. Secretary Cobb can save one million of dol- lars per annum to the government, and at the same time aid the financial operations of the mercantile classes by putting one-sixth or one-fifth per cent on the new issue of | 126 Tr.asury notes. ‘The annexed statement, compiled from the company’s official annual reports, gives ata glance the actual finan- cial results of the operating departments, &c., of the New York Central Railroad Company for the three years ending | September 30, 1856. We republish it, in consequence of | the typographical error made in one of the aggregates this morning:— New York Cextrat Raitroan, ‘Total groes earnings in three years..... «20,189, Total expenditares— ‘Construction 2)428,018 15 5,961,001 58 ————— 25,645,014 79 Bacese of expenditures over receipts, in three years ‘This has been provided for as foliows —_ Increase of capital paid in... .. $1,922,676 88 Increase of debt.........:1++ 4j0082,006 51 —— —— 86,964,773 39 Cash (supposed to be) on hand Sept. 30,1856. $590,022 42 pears by this exhibit that in the three years ending Sept. 20, 1866, the average annual expenditures on con- struction account was $2,192,877, This amount was ex- pended per annum when the traffic over the line was comparatively «mall, tt is, therefore, fair to presume that with rger traffic, particularly when the increase is entirely in heavy freight, the expenditures on con- struetion account should also increase, The wear and tear i: certainly greater with a larger *. In the year ending Sept, 30, 1857, the whole reported expanditure on construction accoant was $720,442 56. Upon the wear and | tear, damages, &c., of 2 business of cight millions of dol lare, ths isa very small outlay on property represented to have cost upwards of thirty millions af dollars. The company may go over one year without repairiag the road much or making the proper expenditures to keep up ite efficiency, but such expenditures cannot be removed, and at the best only postponed, throwing tuto soms future year expenditures which should have been made in some previous year, Ali this flnanciering is necessary to keep up the payment of unearned dividends, No one at all ac- quainted with the progress and effect of such a policy can doubt fora moment where it will end. We have in the Erie, Michigan Southern, Cleveland and To- ledo, Harlem, Reading, and Michigan Central the result clearly illustrated. It is seldom that we make ‘4 mistake in our calculations where railroad expenditures and financiéring are concerned, and it appears to us that nothing in the future is more inevitable than that the New York Central Company will at no very distant day be what the Erie Railroad Company is now. The Michigan Central Railroad Company is the most recent instance of a sudden collapse, upou one of the most favorable exhibits the company ever made, showing that it is not at all diff cult for expert accountants and shrewd financiers to keep up a show of great prosperity to the very last moment. ‘The Erie Railroad Company showed in ita annual state- ment, but a few weeks before the bankruptey of the con. cern Was admittod, that the net earnings on the capital stock were equal to 1254 per cent. At the same time it showed a large surplus. All we can say to to the stock holders of railroad companies just now is to place no faith in railroad reports. They ever have been, and we fear ever will be, deceptive and false, The Albany Statesman, in speaking of the management of the New York Central Railroad Company, says:— When the last dividend wae about to be declared, the Treasurer reported that be had a sufficient amount to hia credit to cover the entire payment of that dividend. And yet the President of the and Mr. Prayn, one of the directors, immediately the dividend was decided upon, had to negotiate a loan of $250,000 to meet it. This we believe is pot gonerally known to stockholders, and we hold that, as the parties in interest, they should not be as) | misied by’ the treasurer's incorrect statement. Again. the stockholders are under the impression that a general rule governs the deposit of the company’s money with the bunks; but last month a deposit of $250,000 was made ot the Albany City Bank in which two ‘of the Albany directors of the Central road are largely interested, and instead of finding $1,500 to $2,000, the earned interest on the deposit, to the credit of the company, a charge of some $1,300 is discovered to have been made by the benk for disbursing the money of the compan, This thot, we hold, should be made known to the Mockholders; Init appeats nowhere in the report. Nor does the yet more important fact my od in the doenment before tis, that some $110,000 was deposited in the Oliver Lee Bank, of Buffalo, tn which the President of the Board owned $65,000 stoek at the time of its failure. Certainly, this should be made kifdwn to those to whom the lost money belongs. It would also be well did the annual report eet forth tho proceedings before the Board of Directors. The stock. ders would then have an opportanity of seeing how narrowly bs f escaped loaning en to the @leven miles of Quiney and Palmyra road, @ la So Mic other matters of equal delicacy and interest. ‘These things, we repeat, the stockholders have a right to know, and since it is impossible to obtain such information as thy are entitled to from the board, we will endeavor, as public journalists, to supply their natural thirst for en lightenment to the best of our abfiity.

BEKF CATTLE. ‘There was an increase in the receipts over last woek of something over four hundred head, and as the offerings were mostly of an ordinary description thore was but a tritiing demand. The market was much loss active than last Week, and prices declined on moat descriptions about 440. The highest price we heard of was 10'e , and only avery fow sales at over 10c. Tho general paying price Was about 9o., and many cattle were sold at 86. We no ticed a few premium cattle on sale, which were bought up at good prices. A very large proportion of the cattle vhich have been sold during the past two months have been from this State, and especially has this been the case for the past three weeks, during which time more than bali of the supplies have been State cattle. At Hrowning’s there have been but few caffle sold, and, being scarce, have brought good prices. At Bergen Hil, on Monday, there were gold something over tree lunitred head, and the demand was unusually good, as it was fear ed by some that the supply would again be short at Al lerton’s. The stock commanded much higher rates than usual, and come of the brokers say that they obtained at least $1 per 100 Ibs. more for their cattle at Borgen Hill than they did to-day at Allerton’s, The total number on sale at Allerton’s was 2,328 head, against 1,609 head Last year. cows. The receipts show an incroase over last weok of 26 cows. Although they are in limited demand the yards are cleared every day, but they fail ocommand very high prices. VEAL VALVES. Veals, except for extra fat, are in limited demand, and fail to command as high prices as previously. The ‘ave. rage price is about 63¢., and only a vory few sales are eflected at over 6c. The range is about the same, how ever, as there are some which bring 7c. SHREP AND LAMBS. ‘The receipts are a little larger, but as there continues a «moderately active demand, there has been no ¢! re in prices worthy of note. Some of the poorest sheep bring daly about $2 60, while the best bring 80 to 86 60 SWINE. The supply at Allerton’s during the past week was much smaller than the previous week, but the receipts in the city were full as large, — Most of those sold at Allerton's throughout the week were sold at dead weight, but for the few which were disposed of in the usual way about last week’s prices were obtained, and in one instance jo. ad- vance was asked and obtained. There were 3,700 hoad on sale, against 7,26 head Inst week. There is'a much greater demand for dead hogs than for live ones. RECAPITULATION.
