FINANCIAL AND.COMMERCIAL. MONEY MARKET. Tuurspay, Jan. 21—6 P. M. Quotations for stocks show an improvement to-day. With increased activity in the market better prices ruled, and the transactions show renewed effort on the part of speculators. At the first board there was & spirited movement in certain fancy securities, and the clique of buyers took hold quite sharp. Virginia State 6's advanced } per cent; Illinois Central bonds, 4; Metropolitan Bank, $; Cumberland, 1; New York Central Railroad, 3; Erie, 3; Reading, 3; Michigan Southern, old, 4; Cleveland and Toledo, 3. New York ‘Central’7’s declined 4 per cent; Pacific Steam- ship Company, 4. The movement to-day was con- fined a good deal to Cumberland Coal Company stock, and itadvanced rapidly from the opening. It closed this morning firm at 144 per cent, cash. La Crosse Land Grant bonds were in demand to-day at fall prices, and were well sustained to the close. This investment is attracting capital, and it looks very much now as though the company would, at no'very distant day, come out far ahead of many which have for months past ranked very high in the market. There is more. real backbone in the Jand grant of the La Crosse and Milwaukie Com- pany than any other grant of the kind in the coun- try. The company have a good road running through a fine country; but it must be borne in mind that the road runs through more than three hun- dred thousand acres of the company’s own property. The keading Western railroad stocks—Galena and Rock Island—appear to be very heavy. We under- stand that considerable Galena and Chicago Railroad stock has been sent over from London and sold in this market. At the second board to-day the at- tention of speculators was directed principally to Cumberland, and it closed firm at 154 per cent. After the board sales were made at 153 per cent. cash,and 16 per cent buyer 60 days. Michigan Central bonds fell off } per cent; Cleveland and Toledo Railroad, }: Pacific Steamship Company, 14. LaCrosse and Milwaukie Railroad closed at 11] per Galena and Chicago sold at 714, buyer sixty cont. ‘The Assistant Treasurer reports to-day as fol- low Total receipts, The receipts to-day include $47,000 from customs. The importations continue very light. The duties paid are principally on goods taken out of ware- house. The exchanges at the Bank Clearing House to-day were $1,714,495 83, and the balances paid amounted to $1,146,959 64. The Morris Canal and Banking Company has de- clared a semi-annual dividend of 5 per cent upon the preferred stock of the company, payable on and after Tuesday, Feb. 2, at their office in Jersey City. The Paterson and Ramapo Railroad will pay a semi-annual dividend of 2 per cent on the 21st and 22d inst.,at No. 61 Wall street; after that at the Treasurer's office, Paterson; the Paterson and Hudson River road one of four per cent, payable on the 2ist and 22d inst., at the Peter Cooper Fire Insurance Company, and at the Treasurer's office, Paterson. ‘The earnings of the Chicago and Rock Island Rail- read the two first weeks in January, 1857, were $48,076 31 Do, 1858, do, .... 20,914 00 The treasury notes of the denominations of $500 and $1,000 have been completed and received at Washington. The lewer denomination of these notes was first paid out on Thursday of last week. As specimens of the art of steel engraving they cannot be surpassed, and show the perfection to which this art has been brought. The plates were prepared expressly for this issue, and have the portraits of the President of the United States and the Secretary of the Treasury, with vignettes ap- propriate to the Treasury Department. The despatch with which thé engraving and printing have been executed is astonishing, considering the time usually required for such work. The notes are printed with | two indestructible inks, and are a safe protection against photographic counterfeits and alterations. The Secretary intends, and in fact is paying them out as fast as demands are made upon him. He will continue to pay them ont until the first six mil- lions of Collars is exhausted, and then, according to the law of Congress, he is required to advertise for a loan, which he intends to do. As the receipts dnoring the last two or three weeks from customs have been pretty large, averaging seventy thousand dollars per day, and constantly increasing, it may be possible that the six millions will suffice for the present, so that a loan will not be required. But of this there is no certainty; for the receipts have been exceedingly figctuating and uncertain for the last four months, and they may be for the next four monthe to come. We annex the business of the La Crosse and Mil. wavkie Railroad for the quarter ending December 51. 1857, showing an aggregate of net earnings of 421 85. The road is worked under a lease to the contractor on the western division. The work of laying the track on the western division is being pur- sued vigorously at the rate of a half mile per day: Fighteen miles more is required to reach the june- tion, which, when completed, will give 156 miles of i ——_, Bepenses roe: ‘ a Profit, October oo 16.002 48 $16,781 80 $90,570 20 m! 38 476 56 18,778 30 24,669 2% ‘28 876 92 13,723 61 16,153 31 Total... cece. $118,705 65 $43,283 60 $70,421 86 Bills of all the Rhode Island banks, except the following, are now received at the Suaffolk Bank, Boston, viz.:— Bank of South County, Farmers’ Bonk, R. |.

The Providence Journal of yesterday states that the banks of that city will make their clearances daily through the Bank of North America. The Merchants’ Bank will keep the accounts with the country banks, as heretofore, and will take all the State money at par. The Bank of North America gives notice to the city banks that the arrangement Will go into effect on the 22d. Country money will be received at par up to noon, and after that hour it will be taken in payment of balances at thirty cents discount on the $1,000. The net earned premiums of the Mercantile Mu- tual Insurance Company for the year 18567 were $718,517 49, and the payments of all kinda, includ- ing $265,955 08 loses, were $504,158 37, leaving $214,359 12 as the net earnings; from which deduct 63,550 for losses not ascertained and doubtful dette, and there remains $150,509 12 to be divided. The assets of the company on Dec. 31 amounted to $971,150 97. The trustees have declared a dividend of fourteen per cent on the net earned premiums, for which certificates will be isened on the 15th of February. To the stockholders a dividend has also been declared of interest at the rate of seven per cent per apnum, and a further dividend of seven and a half per cent, both payable in cash on and after the 15th of February next. The net earned premiums of the Pacific Mutnal Insurance Company for the year ending December 31, 1867, were $730,841 25, and the expenditures of fll kinds, including losses to the amount of $4 189 were $6,598,024 50, ehowing a net profit fog Bank of the Republic, Hopkington Bank, FRIDAY; JANUARY , 22, . > 28 La Crosee and Milwaukie Kit.

The trustees have declared a dividend of twenty per cent on the net amount of earned pre- tMmiums for the year, for which certificates will be issued on the 2d of Febrnary next. On that day in- terest, at the rate of six per cent per annum, will be paid on the outstanding certificates of the company. The last anneal report of the State Auditor of Towa contains many very important facts relative to the finances and progress of that State. The total receipts into the State treasury during the year ending November 1, 1857, including the amount on hand at the commencement of the year, were $255,527 75. The disbursements during the same period were $241,145 05, leaving @ balance in the treasury of $14,182 70. The total liabilities of the State are $293,843 98. Is estimated resources for the years 1857 and 1858 are $953,771 96, which does not imclude the school fund ($36,908 75), as that is not considered strictly State resources. The estimated expenditures for the same time will be $523,412 70, which teaves a balanc® in the treasury of $430,859 06, on the presumption that the State revenues willall be paid up. The appropriations to charitable institutions are as follows:—Insane Asy- lum, $100,338 48; Deaf and Dumb, $7,000; Institu- tion for the Bfmd, $7,222; penitentiary, $24,817. The following comparison of the taxable property of ‘the State for tire last seven years is given as an ‘indication of the progress it is making in wealth: Jn 1851 it was $28,464,550; in 1852, $38,427,376; in 1853, $49,540,304; in 1854, $72,327,204; in 1855, $106,895,390; in 1856, $164,394,413; im 1857, $210,044,583. Annexed is the substance of the bill to be intro- duced by Mr. Sloan, in the Senate of this State, for the modification of the usury laws:— Section 1. No grant, transfer, bond, note, bill of ex- change, contract or agreement, or loan or forbearance of any money, goods or things in action, shall be void by reason of avy paying or receiving or agreeing to pay su rate of interest as the parties may agree upon. Sec. 2. That in al) cases where the rate of interest is not mentioned, it shall be deemed and taken at the rate of 7 per cent. Sec. 3. No more than 7 per cent to be charged on any judgment rendered after date of rendition. Sec. 4. Repeals so much of the law of 1837 as is incon- sistent with the provisions of this act. Sec. 5, To take effect immediately. The earnings of the Chicago, St. Paul and Fond du Lac road for December, 1857, were $21,860 57. The company has been steadily at work through all its troubles, and has now forty-six miles of road bed ready for the ties and iron. The annual meeting of the Connecticut River Railroad was held at Boston yesterday. The report shows that the income for the year ending Novem- ber 30, 1857, was $267,710 57, and the expenses were $202,614 24, leavinga net income of $69,096 53 -—a decrease of $14,174 42 as compared with 1856. The directors say the present business of the road does not justify a dividend of two per cent on the old stock in February next, and it is proposed to re- serve the earnings of the current half year, and thereby swell the surplus to its formeramount. The capital stock of the company at the date of the re- port was $1,283,610; preferred do., $307,500; bonds, $228,000; floating debt, $47,772 50. A letter from Havana, dated the 15th inst., says:— Silver is becoming very scarce, the large quantity of American dimes and half dimes that lately formed almost our entire silver circulation having disappeared. Part of it has no doubt been-absorbed by the country, and part of it sent back to the United States, in order to save the pre- sent high premium of exchange on remittances. American coin now bears a premium of from 244 to 4 per cent in our market, and it ‘s not improbable that necessity will force us to admit it in our circulation, notwithstanding the op- position cf the government. The Boston Traveller of the 20th inst., says:— Three ships arrived at New York last week from Cal- cutta, and many more than the usual number arrived at that port last Year from British India. As soon as the fleet now on the way to Boston from Caicutta has arrived, we shall probably see @ great curtailment of this trade, and twenty-five arrivals annually from that quarter, in stead of nearly one hundred. From twenty-tive to fifty would probably well supply the actual wants of a logiti- mate trade. We hope the misfortunes of our Boston houser will not be the means, directly or indirectly, of sending this trade to New York, for we cannot well spare this important branch of our commerce, as more than one-half of the ships that arrived at Boston last year from foreign ports were from the various ports of India, Stock Exchange. ‘Twerspay, Jan. 21, 1858. $0000 N York 6's °58. 1 a to 000 shs Cutn Cl Co 8 11000 do..... 1005; 320 23 5C00 Kentucky @ to Aaa 6's "90. ‘50 Bruns City LA Co. 72N Y Central RR.. 00 do. 10 2000 E RR Sd m b°83. 1000 Hud RRR 3d m 4000 HR RR con bas €000 MCRSpel msfeb. 4000 Ili Cen RR bas. £500 6000 I!

[From Fi Diario de ia Marina, (Havana,) Jan. 14.) We sball not venture upon pronouncing any positive opinion as to te amount of the ir production of the present year. The detlaitive result of the sugar crop de- pends on numberlers contingencies which ar to dis- turb apy tolerably weil made calculation, but out of the confnsed mass some facts begin to present themselves on which we may with some confidence rely. If the foreign markets of consumption take asa partial basis of their Operations the supposition of a considerable increase in our sugar produciions of this year, in comparison with that of the last, we can assure them forthwith that they are vously mistaken. It is true that our sugar plant bas on increased in consequence of almost all available jabor having been concentrated in this branch | of culture; and it is also true that, provided circum- stances favor us, we count on elements sufficient to give us @ sugar crop which, as to qvantity, will surpass all former ones. But on the other side the combinations of temperature and rain have not been favorable, The information we bave collected from many and variows pointe of the island, including thove distrigts which form the chief centre of eugar production, by ite unanimity jus- tifes us in deciaring that the drought of the last few months bas caused great lows and considerably diminished our production. From this time forward, therefore, it may be asserted that the hopes formerly indulged in of a Ms fy fugar crop will not be realized. it degree this deficit amounts to and what compari 80D may be established between the yield of this and that of the Year, are questions still doubtfal. It must, however, be remembered that during the last year the weather, to an extraordiuary degree, rored the pro. | Jongation of the grinding, and thus contributed to increase the sugar yield. Avy disturbance, whatever, in this re spect would render tt difficult to establish any proportion | between results obtained under different circumstances. contrary, under equal conditions, we may promise some surplus in the produce. Rat in either case, whose. ever, either here or abroad. shov!d anticipate a considera: ble inereage in the sugar yield of the present year. is des- tined to see his prophecies falsified by experience. This is the truth, or at least what we believe to be so, after minutely investigating ail circumstances referring to the matter ——— MARITIME INTELLIGENCE.
