Sunpar, Now. 30, 1668. Congress meets to-morrow, and, though the ‘Treasury report may not be forthcoming for a day or two, we may learn from the message to-mor” row afternoon the leading features of the future financial policy of government. If that policy contemplates a further issue of legal tender money Without a previous attempt to negotiate a loan, it | | will be a confession of weakness and of want of | confidence in the financial strength of government | entirely without parallel in our history. The several States of the Union, with revenues barely equal to their ordinary peace expenditares, bor- row money readily, and the public fight for their bonds at a premium, Railways, which are not earning four per cent on their cost, and’ whose resources are small, nego- tiate loans, and their bonde sell at or over par. Merchants engaged in perilous mercan- tile adventures float their paper readily at 45 per cent per annum, Yet it is pretended in some quarters that the United States govern- ment, with a revesue which cannot fall short of $250,000,000, and which may exceed $350,000,000— that is to say, a revenue four to six times as great as its average annual expenditure in time of peace—cannot appear in the market as a bor. rower and negotiate a loan! Currency, it is urged ‘by the-opponents of a United States Joan, i8 80 scarce that a new loan could not be paid-for" And this nongense passes current in Wall etrect almost without quostion. Evorybody knows that Mr. Chase lias already addet! come $2Q0,000,000 of legal tender money to the volume of our cur- rency; that he has $100,000,000 more to be issued; that the banks of New England, New York, Peno- sylvania, #New Jersey aud Ohio have been ex- panding their issues as fast as the printers could supply the notes; aud yct there are people who seriously believe that there is not currency enough in the country to pay for a government loan, It is to be hoped that, whatever the Secretary of the Treasury may recommend, Congress will take the pains to inform itself before acting upon the subject. It is quite true that whea Mr. Chase called upon the banks to pay him twelve millions of dollars in legal tender currency, within twenty- four hours, they found it difficult to collect the re- quisite amount of notes. But there was a very cx- cellent reason for this. There had been, and was still, an active demand for legal tender notes at the West to replace the broken down Western and Southern wildcat paper, which had served as money in that section, and Mr. Chase’s legal tender paper had gone thither as fast as it was manufactured, whereas here there was no demand for it at all. Currency will always go where it is wanted, just as water will find its level. If Mr. Chase calls for a loan, to be paid for in legal tender money, and it is well understood that it will be awarded to the lowest. bidders, without drawback, restriction or limitation, there need be no apprehension about a want of currency to pay for it. Currency holders at the West cannot be expected to part with their money unless they get its worth. If Mr. Chase gives out that he will not sell government bonds below par, it is.quite doubtful whether hold- ers of currency, which is convertible at any time into United States bonds at par, will think it worth their while to place that currency at his disposal. It is rather their interest to hold it and await contingencies. But if they are offered a bond of the United States bearing six per cent in- terest, at a tempting price, they will very quickly produce their legal tender money and take the bond. Some people entertain the notion that it is better to cause the price of food, clothing, merchandise and produce to advance 50 @ 100 per cent than to sell United States bonds at a discount. If Congress takes this view, urther issues of paper will, of course, be authorized. _ Government bonds will advance, and the expenditures of government and the cost of living will be at once increased from 30 to 50 per cent. The farmer who finds it hard work to pay his store bill at the current prices will then not be able to pay it at all. Dry geods, groceries, farm utensils and every description of merchandise will advance materially. Govern- ment will pay $2 where it now pays $1 50 for military supplies. Soldiers’ wages will bave to be increased; for $13 a month will not procure as much as $10 now do. Mechanics, working for government at the foundries and navy yards, will justly demand higher wages. Everything required either by government or by the people will cost more, and the expenses of the war--which of course must be ultimately paid in specie or its equivalent--will be swelled 30 a 50 per cent. Gold will rise from 128 to 150 a 160, and exchange from 142 to 175 a 180, and our currency will appear to be proportionately depreciated. In return for all this, we shall have the barren satisfaction of seeing Uuited States sixes quoted at a premium at the Board of Brokers. If, on the other hand, Congress should be wisely counselled to test the public credit at this juncture, anda United States Joan should be placed on the mar- ket, the condition of affairs would be precisely re- versed. The cost of living would fall at once. Farmers would pay their store bills without diffi- culty, and keep something over for the taxgather. er. Dry goods, groceries and all kinds of produce and merchandise would fall to natural prices. Go- vernment would get for $1 that which now costs $150. The cost of the war would be materially diminished. Gold and exchange would fall rapid ly, and the national currency, which is the true test of national credit, would rise nearer to the pecie standard. The only drawback would be that United States sixes would probably sell at- a discount at the Brokers’ Board, These are the two alternatives between which the Secretary of the Treasury and Congress must choose. It is paying thema poor compliment to suppose that they will hesitate in making their choice. They have the example of the South before them asa guide. At Richmond gold is worth 340 per cent, or, in other words, it costs $3 40 in paper to buy $1 in gold or its equiva- Jent in merchandise or produce. Henve the bogus Southern confederacy is probably spending more money—in paper—to carry on the war than the United States, though our army isso much larger than theirs, and they have no naval expenditure. This is the fruit of unlimited issues of paper, and of a reluctance—probably compulsory at the South—to go squarely before the public, and raise money by the old, legitimate financial methods. A few weeks will show whether Co..gress will follow or avoid the pernicious example. The trade tables for the week which ended yes- terday show an aggregate export of nearly four millions, against an aggregate import of less than three, thus increasing the balance in our favor by over a million. The following are the figares:— Imports. For the week. 1860. 1861. 1862.

It is good property, & money paid for them is drawn from that column. Hence a steady drain on the depesits, which, added to the drain of money Westward to move the crops, places the banks in 8 somewhat strait” ened position. Rumor states that the Legislature Of the State wilt look into the condition of the banks thie winter, with » view to determine whether some action may not be necessary to re- lieve them from their present embarrasements. With few exceptions, our city banks, though abundantly solvent, are unable to pay their depositors in currency. For the general pur. poses of trade but little currency is required, 60 long 8 confidence exists. But if the impression becomes general that the banks ere not ina condition to redeem their deposita, everybody would want currency, and legislation would be ab- solutely necessary to protect the banks from the consequences of a panic and a general rua upon ithom. It will probably be likewise suggested that something should be done about the twenty-two to twenty-five millions of gold held by the banks when they suspended, and geoerally understood to be still in their vaults, This gold belonged to the depositors.in bank. on the day of the.euspen- sion.) It belongs to them-still. At preseat prices it is worth over thirty miltions of dollars. In the everit of the-adoption of a new financial policy by Congress, it would fall in value very materially. Quite a number of depositors in bank, who were 50 before the cuspension, believe in a decline in gold, and demand that their proportion of the specie re- serve be sold at the present high premium. On the other hand, the bank managers claim exclusive control of their respective reserves, and their policy appears to be to hold them in vaalt until a time arrives when specie payments can be re sumed. This knotty problem will probably be laid before the Legislature as soon as it meets. Money closed yesterday at about six per cent on call to borrowers on stock collateral. Paper of the highest grade sells at4.a6 per cent. Govern- ment certificates of indebtedness, one year to run, sell at 974 a %. The money market is easier than it was a week ago, though the transition from stringency to ease is much slower than was ex- pected. Notwithstanding the asseverations of bankers and lenders, a very general impression prevails in Wall street that money is not going to be as easy as it was, and that capital will com- mand a fair income throughout the winter. Inde- pendently of the financial policy of government, the advance of our armies Southward, and the ac- tivity of trade in the West, are likely te create a pretty quick demand for money. Wherever our armies penctrate, cotton will be discovered, and money will be necded to purchase and move it. ‘The pork trade will consume a great deal of money. Mouey will go South for the pur- chase of land also. If, in addition to this legitimate demand, the, government becomes a borrower, we may safely expect an actives money market all winter. It must be borne in miod that the recent advance in merchandise and stocks has largely increased the demand for money in this city. A cargo of goods worth $100,000 a year ago, and worth $200,000 now, tequires just so much more money to carry it. A thousand shaves of Michigan Central or Erie could have been carried a year ago with $40,000; it now takes $60,000 to carry 1,000 Erie and $38,000 to carry 1,000 Michigan Central. This fact helps to account for the firmness of money. Gold closed yesterday at 128% a %, and bank- ers’ bills on London at 142%. It is now pretty clear that nothing but a further issue of Treasury paper will maintain the price of gold. There is no warrant, in the present condition of the national currency, for a premium of 28 per cent. Six or seven per cent would fairly represent the measure of the public distrust of a paper currency. Gold rose to i38, partly in consequence of the speculative ope- rations of foreigners who, judging affairs here by foreign precedents, and classing our war with the old wars of weak nations without resources and without any gold supply, took for granted that our currency would depreciate as rapidly and as per- manently as the currencies of Austria and Russia depreciated in times gone by. A rumor gained credence last week to the effect that a uegotiation was pending between the Treasury Department and certain parties at Memphis for the delivery uf a million bales of cotton at a fixed price There is, of course, n0 reason to believe that we shail get, at any price, a million bales from Memphis or from any other single point. But it is true that the Treasury Department is actively engaged in endeavoring to accelerate the movement of South. ern cotton to market; and there is reason to be lieve that a very large quantity will be re- ceived at New York and elsewhere during the coming winter. That there is.a very large amount of cotton in the South we know, and it is likewise known that the owners of this cotton are impelled by motives more powerful than passion or patriot ism to sell it. A few hundred thousand bales of cotton would constitute, at present prices, a for- midable item in our export returns, and would af- fect the price of gold and exchange very rapidly, Halfa million bales, at present prices, would be worth as much as a whole crop was worth in old times, and would pay for as many foreign gooda, Under the circumstances prudent importers will be in no hurry to buy bills, and parties who have purchased goldy as an insurance, will provably make money by letting the street have itfor (ae present, and taking it back, if necessary hereaf- ter, at lower figures.

The recent advance has brought large quantities of stocks into the street, most of which are held by outside operators on speculation, and hypothecated at bank. Wall street never held as many stocks as it doesat present, and in the present stagnant condition of the market the prospect is anything but en- couraging to holders. Speculation for the rise appears to be dead. Most vigorous demonstra- tions, backed by the best talent at the board, and any quantity of capital, fail to elicit any response from the public, for the simple reason that outside speculators have already as many stocks as they can carry. It is this condition of things which renders the market so very dan* gerous at present. When the present holders of stocks want to sell, who will relieve them of their lond? At present little cliques of operators are sustaining each particular stock. There is a clique in Central and a clique in Erie, and a clique in Michigan Central and @ clique in Southern, and a clique in Galena and @ clique in Rock Island. These cliques are resisting the downward tend- ency by bold purchases and lavish outlay of money, If they some day lose heart and attempt to sel their stocks, what will become of the marke: There is no short interest worth mentioning, tat there seems to be nothing to prevent a panic any doy, in which stocks might (al) twenty per cent, welt magaged road, with @ fine business. Bub what is there in the state of financial aGairs, in the money market or in the future prospect to justify ts selling at 20 per cont above what used to be considered its natural par value? Take the Michigan roads, They are both doing a good business, and wil! continue to do so until na. vigation closes on the canal, when their traffic will fall off, because the New York roads will be unable to transport produce for them. Michigan Central, which pays irregular dividends, is selling at 88; Michigan Southern guaranteed, which never paid a dividend, at 82. Both have risen 100 per cent in ayedr. In the course of a few weeks people will probably be able to buy United States fives at the price of guar: |, and perhaps United States sixes at the price of Michigan Cea” tral. . United States fives will yield about $6 66 per $100, United States sixes about $8 per $100, and the income will be certain. Can there be any question a3 to the course of these stocks? Take Galena. The wheat crop on this line kag failed, and the trafic shows a steady decrease, as compared with last year. Yet the stock is selling 10 a 15 per cent higher than it did. a yearago. The managers are mancavering to lease another soad not yet kailt; if they.do.so the irregular dividends heretefore paid by the Galena will probably cesse. Take Toledo. This stock used to be considered quite high at 40, and as it was not able, inan average of years, to pay ite working expenses and interest, it was high cer. tainly. It is now selling at 66. What is there in the condition of the property, or in its future pros- pects, or in the state or futare prospects of the money market, to justify this enormous advance? What we have said of these stocks applies to the entire speculative list. If Congreas pursues a wise, conservative course, the eapital which hus been iavested in these securities will be diverted into government stocks. The latter will be found relatively cheaper and a better purchase than any railway stocks on the list. CITY COMMERCIAL REPORT. Saturpay, Nov. 20—6P. Mf.
