SAIGGOL SLTSL It will thus be seen that the commercial move. ment of March, 1860, was in excess of that of March, 1858 and 1859, in regard to imports of foreign goods and exports of domestic produce, bat less than that of March of last year gn respect to exports of specie. The increase in the imports does not seem as large as one might have imagined from the course of trade. But the factis the im Portations of the spring of 1859 were so largely in excess of those of previous years, that no one ex- .Peeted that those of this year would exceed or even equal them. Our dry goods importers especially have ordered and received a0 many goods from abroad, that were it not for the enormous increase im the foreign demand for our cotton and our other staple exports, all the gold in our banks would hardly suffice to pay for the goods they have imported. The increase in the exports of domestic produce from this port will be noticed. This increase is chiefly in cotton, pro- visions, domestic dry goods, and miscellaneous ar- ticles. A few years ago,no one would have be- lieved that New York could have exported ten millions worth of produce, goods and merchandise, in 8 month, without sending graia or flour to Eu- rope. But the course of trade is steadily changing. Every year we are consuming more cereal food athome, and mannfactaring. more goods for the foreign world. The day is not far distant—espe- cially if the silver fields of California and the coal fields of Winois be speedily developed—that our foreign exports will consist almost wholly of cot- ton, specie and manufactures. This time last year the financial and commercial werld was in a feverish state, in consequence of the threatened war in Italy. It will be remembered that in the last week of March Austria agreed toa European conference, on the strength of which pacific indication the British fands rose to 96}—two per cent higher than they are now—cotton ad- vanced }, and all foreign securities rose consider. ably in London and Paris. At the same time there ‘was a general conviction in well informed circles that the difficulty could not be settled without an appeal to arms, and consequently there was a general disinclination to undertake new enterprises. Money in New York was quoted at 45 for call Joans, and 526 for first class paper; foreign ex- ebange ruled at 1093 a 110 for 60-day sterling bills. Specie was being freely shipped, and an impression (which was probably baseless) had begun to pre- vail that large purchases of specie were being made by foreign bankers here for the account of Earopean governments. The import trade had been profitable, as a general rule; the South had bought liberally, both of dry goods and general mer" chandise. The West, however, was disappointing merghihts, by practising rigideconomy. The hopes which had been raised in the early part of March by a partial increase of traffic of the Western roads, were proving delusive; the earnings on all the roads were declining, and the public was being prepared for the enormous falling off which occurred in April and May. Most of the speculative stocks were considerably higher than they are at present. Mis souri sixes, Galena, Reading, Michigan Central and Southern were all selling at 6 a8 per cent higher than they do now; New York Central was worth about as much as it is to-day, and Rock Island, To ledo, Panama, and one or two other stocks, were lower. Foreign merchandise was, as a rule, rather higher than it is at present; no great sacrifices of dry goods had yet taken place. Both cotton and flour were higher than they are at the present time. The following tables will show the movement of trade at this port for the nine months which have elapsed of the current fiscal year, as compared with the corresponding periods of the two previous fiscal years:— aco,an8 18,b08,ré7— a7-288,100 f 0, 7 8 + 19,986,498 onan 176 24,649,501 16,847,360 15.473,295 16,643,595 + 14,439'867 13,542,084 13,621,046, + 13,417,960 10,592606 14,915,002 December........ 9,120,81t 13,344,625 18,920,789 8,105,719 19,877,654 21,756,673 9,209,043 18,848,870 19,856,389 11,729,702 20,840,456 23,680,126 ‘Total for 9 mos.$138,666,166 150,131,013 180,737,301 4,938,065 5,150,710 4,916,612 4,752,779 5,323,611 6,382,172 5,209 142 5,609,387 6,998,687 49,491,165 10,051,019 6,409,783 8,267,682 5,344,189 4,333,123 2,563,905 953,562 977,000 2,381,683 ‘Total for 9 mcs.$31,280,817 21,654,264 40,231,994 Receipts from California. sag" ona 8,005,530 3,886,880 2,961,960 3,940,024 3,268,639 4,088,363 2,794,084 = 3,775,225 3,490,798 8,289,449 atest Seine 2 2,088;036 —«-2,682;828 3,169,690 2,683,074 1,062,401 2,404,750 ‘Total for 9 mos.$24,465,069 25,774,803 81,398,301 In reviewing the above tables, the first fact which strikes the eye is the enormous develope- ment which our foreign trade has assumed since the present fiscal year began. The increase over last year in the imports for the nine months is $30,000,000—twenty per cent; in the exports of domestic produce near $12,000,000—abont thirty percent. It must be observed, however, that the aggregate imports of the year will not show so large an increase,as the import trade had not fairly recovered from the crisis in the first quarter of the fiscal year 1858-9, Should the imports for the remaining three months of the fiscal year be the same as last year, the aggegate impor- ‘tation for the year at this port will be $250,000, should they continue to increase in the same ratio as they have done for the past nine months, they will amount to the enormons sum of $264,000,000. Importers state, it is true, that they are going to fall off; but they have repeated this prediction so frequently and so earnestly during the past twelve months, that it requires some credulity to expect anything of the kind. Imports, in this coun- try, rise and fall with the expansion of bank credits; why should we expect the imports to fall off when the banks this day have reached the highest point of expansion ever known in their history? In our opinion, the eager. ness of our city banks to earn dividenas, combined with the enormous wealth that the South is accu- wulating, and the general recovery of business throughout the West, are much surer indications of the probable tendency of commerce than the ‘opinions of individual merchants; and those indica- tions justify no expectation that the imports of foreign goods are likely to fall of for some months to come, Yi 1S NEW YORK HERALD, TUESDAY, APRIL 10, 1860.—TRIPLE SHBET. “FINANCIAL AND . COMMERCIAL. | 0s the other hand, the capacity of the country to pay for an increased consumption of foreign goods is undoubted. Cotton alone will yield from $35,000,000 to $45,000,000 of exchange more this year than it did last. The export of domestic produce from this port alone is, as we stated above, nearly thirty per cent in excess of that of last year; the exeess at the South will be still greater. How the specie export for the fiscal year will compare with that of the year 1858-9 remains problematical. For the nine months, 1859-60, it is about $18,500,000 ahead; but the movement of cointo Europe in the first quarter of 1858-9 was very sluggish, and remarke- bly active in the last quarter. In April, May and June, 1859, we shipped, from New York alone, over $25,000,000 of gold and silver to Europe. It is not likely that this year any such export will take place. Exchange must rise fully one per cent before it can become an object to the foreign bankers to draw against bullion. However the export of this staple for the year may compare with last, it is satisfactory to know that the produc- tion of bullion is steadily increasing. Almost every shipment from Calitornia, since the commence- ment of the fiscal year, has been in excess of the shipment at the corresponding date of the previ- ous year ; the returns for nine months show an in- crease of twenty per cent inthe receipts of gold at New York. Ifthe Washoe mines yield anything like what is promised, this will contribute to swell our specie resources. To-day’s return from the banks compares as fok an with that of last week:— ‘eck ending.

It is impossible to characterize such financiering otherwist than as foolish, reckless and disgraceful. There was no pres- sure on the banks for money. On the contrary, money was hawked about Wail street‘all last week at5a5} percent. Any well established house in good eredit could obtain money on six months paper at 6a7per cent. Had the banks fulfilled the true purpose of their institution, and refrained from entering into blind competition with private lenders, their loans would have been less now than they were a week ago; but their profits would also have been less. And this, as in 1857, has im- pelled them to pursue a course which will have the effect of stimulating over importations and in- suring this fall a period of suffering for themselves and all their customers. There is no change in money to report. The fo- reign exchange market opens dull but steady at 108% for bankers’ sterling. Francs are rather lower, the quotation being about 5.17%, with good bills offering at 5.183. . The stock market was dull to-dsy, and prices were lower. New York Central was unfavorably affected by the passage of the Tolls bill at Albany, and de- clined one per cent, closing 77} bid. All other stocks sympathized, and fell off from 4 to } percent. Pacific Mail was pressed for sale, at a decline of 2} per cent, and large quantities of stock changed realizations by parties who have been speculators for the rise; but the movements of this stock are always so mercurial that any decline of one or two per cent is sure to give rise to a multitude of mysterious rumors and surmises. Missouris were steady. At the close of business, the market was dull but steady.

The bill granting aid to the Albany and Susque- hanna Railroad, and imposing for that purpose a tax of one-half mill on the people of the State at large,which passed the Senate on Saturday now only awaits Goy. Morgan’s signature to become a law. The bill takes $750,000 out of the pockets of the people of the State for the benefit of the land- owners in three or four counties lying west and southwest of Albany. It is not pretended that the constraction of a railroad between Albany and Sus- quehanna will benefit the people of New York city, or Buffalo, or Syracuse, or Rochester, or Oswego, or any of the large towns of the State. There can never be any through traffic on such a line. It will enhance the value of property in the counties which it traverses, and it will develope lands now compa- ratively valueless; but it will not earn interest on its cost, and to the people who wil! have to pay ninety-nine hundredths of the $750,000 voted for its construction it will be absolutely useless. Yet both honses have, by considerable majorities, voted to tax the people half a mill on the dollar for the construction of this road. The Senate and As- sembly have deliberately imposed on every owner of $1,000 worth of property in this city, in Buffalo, Syracuse, Rochester, Auburn, Rome, Oswego, Brooklyn, Hudson, Xc., &c., a tax of fifty cents to pay for building a useless and unprofitable railroad through three or four unproductive counties in the State. The ouly hope left is that Governor Morgan may veto the bill, and this hope is slender indeed. Governor Morgan, of whom so much was expect- ed, has so utterly disappointed the hopes of his friends that people are quite ready to believe the assertion of the newsmongers that he is ready to agree to vote away any amount of money to his political party. Shameful and infamous as the many railroad schemes of the republicans at Albany have been this year, this is probably the worst. The “gridi- rons” are schemes for the plunder of this city for the benefit of a select circle of assorted knaves; but the Albany and Susquehanna bill is a robbery perpetuated on the people of the whole State. If a railroad is needed by the owners of land between Albany and Susquehanna, why do they not build it themselves? What business has the Legislature to tax the people of Buffalo, the people of the Cen- tral valley, the people of New York city, and the people of Long Island, for the purpose? Is it pos- sible to conceive a more glaring, palpable, mon- strous robbery? ‘There is some satisfaction in reflecting that mea- sures of this kind will recoil upon their authors with terrible effect. Every taxpayer this year must remember that he pays, on each $1,000 of assessed property, fifty cents to aid a corrupt rail- road scheme, called the Albany and Susquehanna, to which the republican party in the Legislature has granted $780,000 of State aid. The republican party in this State robs every owner of $5,000 worth of property of $2.50, for the benefit of a scheme which will be of no advantage to the State at large, and of no use to anybody but the landowners through whose property the road passes. It is not likely that this will be forgotten at the election in November next. H the democrats play their cards judiciously, and keep well before the people this and the other shameless robberies of the re- publican majority at Albany, to borrow the em- phatic language of Mr. Speaker Littlejohn, “ not even Mr. Seward will be able to save the State to the republicans,” The exchanges at the Bank Clearing House this morning were $28,420,241 70, and the balances $1,371,203 94.
