Fripay, Jan. 6—6 P.M. The stock market was rather irregular this morn- ing. With considerable activity prices were unset ted, and there appeared to be no particular move- ment in any of the leading railroad securities. Some were higher and some were lower. At the first board Tennessee State 6's advanced § per cent; Pennsylvania Cool Company, $; Cumberland Coal, 4; Michigan Central Railroad, 1; La Crosse and Mil- waukie, 4. Virginia State 6’s declined 4 per cent; Cleveland and Toledo, 4; Chicago and Rock Island, 4; Milwaukie and Mississippi, 14. There was a very large business in State stocks, and prices were well sustained. In railroad bonds there was a good deal of activity. The abundance of money helps up the best clas# of securities. Good State stocks, good railroad bonds and good bank «tocks are steadily ad- vancing, and most of the purchases are for perma- ation, prevent tha disease. References to ® cents a bot nent investment. We can easily under- stand how an easy money market should put up prices for securities of undoubted character, but we do not anderstand how aupro- ductive railroad socks can be at all benefitted by such influences.

An easy mop§y market may encour&ge specuiation in fangp railroad stocks, but it cannot Festaie confidence in worthless securities.

Much suffering has been en." upon individuals and families by their losac.” in ‘railroad scouritiea. There can be no spe- etiat"e movement in the stock market that will attrac% outsiders until a new class of opcratora springs up and the horrors of the present revulsion are removed frm the public mind. Speculators of the Stock Exchange may get up from time to times moderate movement, #nd show for a short period « moderate inflation, bat they can make up their minds that no outside support will be realized, and the probability is they will have the enjoyment of the game entirely to themselves. It may be fun for the brokers to get up these tittle speculative excite- ments, but it pas been death to all outsiders who were induced to take a flyer in any of the fancies of the Stock Exchange. The second board was quite aetive, but the mar ket was a little weak for some railroad stocks. Ga- lena and Chicago declined 4 per cent; Erie, 4; New York Central, 4. The movement in railroad stocks does not show any strength. It is too limited in the parties engaged, and it is hard work for thowe en- gaged to keep up the inflation.

They have visited our market with the view of filling up assortments and reple- nishing reduced stocks. It is too early, however, for the spring trade to open. Yet there is every in- dication that it will (should the weather prove pro- pitious) open quite early and prove quite active. ‘The stocks in the interior, from the limited nature of the autumn trade, it is believed are quite low and | will require early replenishing.

Another favorable indication is the fact | i = that many of the Eastern manofacturers have | 9° resumed operat and have appeared in the market as pu rs of raw cotton and wool. The importations for a month past have been lighter than usual. Messrs. Wilmerdings & Mount, on Thars- day, the 7th inst., held a sale, the first of moment | the present season, which included an attractive | charges therviv stated, loav’ catalogue of fancy cassimeres of the manufacture of the Maverick and Eagle mills. It was too early to | draw a large company of clothing manufacturers. ; The company, however, was good, composed chiefly of city and out of town jobbers. The entire cata- logue of 4,500 pieces fancy cassimeres, with some pieces added, was sold. Printed caseimeres were in less demand, and sold at 30}c. and upwards, and the sale also comprised about thirty lots clothing linens, which went off heavily and at prices unfavorable to | | $598,704 02, to $4,014,770 27.

A large quantity of goods held over by suspended and other houses, from the interruption to the autumn trade, will likely be worked off in the spring under the hammer, in order to liquidate, aa for as they gan be made to &, oxiating liabilities. From every indication it will be a lively time with auctioneers next spring. The sale noticed above was made on the usual credit of six months. Under the present supply of goods tocome upon the mar- ket in the spring the orders sent out have been on a reduced scale, and importations for the spring trade are expected to be lighter than usual. A large numbers of firms have been changed or dissolved, while but few new houses have entemed the more or less ha- zardous yet attractive field of the long credit sys tem of the dry goods trade. It will take some time before the affairs of suspended houses are wound up, and before the trade assumes a healthy and regalor form in the hands of those who have passed through the late panic without serious embarrassment. A very extraordinary pamphlet has been issued by A. C. Flagg, Esq., Treasurer of the Chicago and Rock Island Railroad, addressed to the stock and tondholders of the company. In comparing some statements made by him in this circular with those emanating trom the office of the company,-we ob- serve some very remarkable discrepancies which cer- tainly demand explanation. The annual report of the directors, dated. July 1, 1867, states the whole amount of floating debt to be (including some un- claimed interest, &c.) $149,179 16, against which they report a surplus of net earnings, after paying 10 per cent dividends, of $133,139 40. In reply to an inquiry upon the subject, made in September follow- ing at the office of the company, it was stated that the amonnt had been reduced to about $60,000, And yet Mr. Flagg says :— When the recent money pressure or panic commenced, this company had ontetanding liabilities, usually deei¢ natea, according to railway vocabulary, a fleating debt,’* which amounted to more two hundred thousand dol lars. ‘The money pressure was during this very month of September, and on the 30th the directors held a meeting at whickgthey determined to pass the usual October dividend for the purpose extinguishing this debt. Mr. Flagg urges with great emphasis, and, a9 we think, with great justice, the necessity of adopt- ing a new principle in getting at the result of busi- nees upon railroads for any given period. He says: The only reliable test of the profitablences of a road, Anishe? and fully equipped, is to strike a balance between the grosa expenses and the gross earnings. Applying this principle to his own road he presents the following table: Gross earnings of the and Rock Island Railroad from July 10, 1854, the per hich its operations be- gun, to Jane 30, 1867, being within ten days of three $4,582,274 11 Deficit in revenue to meet grosa charges... $06,807 SL And yet within the period named the directors have declared dividends in cash amounting a statement showing an apparent surplus of earnings | i of $133,139 40, as above. Again: Mr. Flagg states: “ The amount added to the surrender of the road to the Témpaay July 10, 1864, is greates by $375,903 23 than the sum charged te Tiong of dotiars have “4 disteibyted among bolder ad securities, the sapeated develope- securities, and thé te3 rept management of the companies generally « ie year, | of $1,977, 72.

What doss this discrepamey mean” War Mr. Flagg concious that the appendix did aot explain it, and does he take thie meted of cnlling the stockholder’ attention to a state of thingy whieh be does not wish directly to expose? The mystery ix rendered more complicated by the fact that the divectors in their report of Joly 1, 1857, state the capital aud Indebtedness as follows» — fonds. "ies oe —While on the Ist of December following, Mr. P. Bives it as above stated, $6,908,000. Independent of Mr. Flage’s protest against the propriety and honesty of making # stock dividend when there bad been no et earnings after deduct- ing gross expenses from gross receipts, he goes on te show that all previous dividends had been paid out of an increase of the capital when the stock com- manded such a price that sales could be made with out ruinons consequences. The stock dividends in- creased the capital $50,000, while those previously made in cash added to the capital $1,000,000, The particulars of these financial operations will be found in Mr. Flagg’ address to the stockholders, The earnings of the Chicago and Rock Island Railroad Company have béen for several months on the de cline, and.taking that for December at $90,000, as a basis, we should doubt whether the company will have the means to discharge their current expenses and the guaranteed dividend to the Peoria and Ry. reau Valley Railroad Company, which falls due in February, and for the payment of which no dispos- tion has been made.
