2 FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. ——= ‘Tavaspar, Feb. 0—6 P.M. ‘Tho speculative feeling was tame en the Stock Ex- change at tho first session of the board, owing to the un- certainty of the result of the movements im Grant's army and tho staguation in the gold room. The ten- dency of prices was in favor of the bears, and some dis- position was shown to put out sellers’ optionn The closing sales compared with those of yesterday's second board as follows:—Erie declined 3, Hudson River %, Beading %, Michtgan Southern 1, Northwestern %, Rock Seland , Fort Wayne %. New York Central advanced ‘1%, Michigan Central %, Cumberland 34. Government, securities were stronger. Coupom ten-forties improved XM, five-twentios 6 a 3. At the open board at one e’clock prices were a frac. tion lower, At the second regular board the market was dull at a fractional decline om a portion of the list, At ‘tho close the variations from the morning prices were a doctine in Erie of 4, New York Central %, Hudson River 4, Reading , Michigan Central 3¢, Cleveland and Pitte- borg 36, Michigan Southern 3¢, Iiinois Central }<, North- ‘western {, Rock Island %, Fort Wayne 3. Cumber land Coal was the most active stock on the list, and ad- ‘vanced 3}4. Government securities were firm, and on the street they were in good demand, the principal inquiry being for ton-forties, owing to their relative cheapness. Afjer the call the market continued dull, and at the Second ‘open board it was barely steady, Cumberland excepted, which advanced to 55, Business on the Stock Exchange ts likely to continue languid for a longtime to come and the railway share market weak and unsettled, owing to the absence of out- side buyers, At present nearly all ite activity is due to the speculations of brokers; for, as commiasions are too fow and insignificant in the great majority of cases to pay thelr office expenses, they are compelled to operate on their own account, and thus they become their own best customers, ‘The offoct of the wretched and neglected condition of pearly all the railways in the country, combined with the unscrupulous manipulations of speculators, is to deter the public from venturing either to Invest or spec- ‘ulate in their stock ; and so long as managing directors prefer paying dividends to keeping their respective Unes in repair, and speculators are ready to conspire to run the market up and down for their own profit, this state of things ts likely to continue. The numerous ac- cidents which have disgraced American railways of late, and made them highways to death, are attributable to the prevailing sin of making ® good financial exhibit, un- warranted by the facts, As an instance of the criminal neglect of railroad com- panies to keep their tracks in proper order, we may quote the published statement of passengers by @ train which left Cincinnati atten P.M. on February 3, for Pittsburg, by the Pittsburg, Columbus and Cincinnati Railway, which is thus given:— ‘That the said train having been stopped by reason of an accident to a freight train, midway betweon Oxford station and Newcomerstown, on this day, they walked over the track from said station to the wrecked train, and found the track in a very bad state of rvpair; that in many inatances the rails were entirely disconnected from the ties, which were often rotten and loose, the coup- lings, in somo instances, entirely removed, many of the pins or bolts eutirely gone, and in many instano:s the rails disconnected by from three to four inches, and the Tails torn and worn out; that in the opinion of the under- signed the accident above roferred to was occasioned by the insecure condition of the track, which renders it unsafe for travel. The gold market has been unusually sluggish to-day, notwithstanding rumors of a reverse to a portion of the forces under Grant. The absence of speculative feeling was marked, and at the close quotations tended down- wasd. Tho fluctuations wore as follows :— ‘The money market is easy at seven per cont, with ex- ceptional traneactions in governments at aix. First class commercial paper rates at 8010 per cent; second, 10 2 Foreign exchange remains inactive at 109 a 3¢ for bankers’ storling at sixty days, and 109% 110% at three days. Merchants’ bills are offored at 108 a 3. The decline in the legitimate demand has killed speculation in foreign bills, and the present and prospective exports of Northern ‘and Southern produce are likely to keep the market flat for an indefinite period. Tho exports last week included 951 bal-s of cotton, and the expected arrivals from Savan- Bah will result in further shipments, the domestic de- mand being insufficient to absorb tho probable supply. ‘The subscriptions to the seven-thisty loan to-day through the First National Bank wore $250,000 Liver- more, Clews & Co, subscribed $200,000. In the House of Representatives to.day Mr. Julian re- ported back from the Committee on Public Lands the bill providing for the subdivision and sale of gold and silver lands, coinage, &c. A few days ago, on the motion of Mr. Beaman, of Michigan, the House adopted a resolu- tion instructing the Cemmittee on Public Lands to in- quire into the expediency of so amending the Homestead law that lands ocoupied under {ts provisions may be taxed for county and other purposes. The intention of tho latter is evidently good. The country stands in nerd of a larger revenue than ft possesses from internal so rrces; but it is an axiom in political science that unde- veloped tracts of country are unproductive and cannot be made otherwise without detriment to prominent in- tersets, and then only to a very limited extent. The Homestead law was passed in May, 1862, and by it all citizens, present or prospective, have a right to settle on the public lands. It may, however, be advisable to 20 amend the Homestead law as to tax the occupants to @ moderate extent; but as a source of revenue it will prove of very littie assistance to the government, Nev- erthelera, thore can be no harm in passing it in the exist- ing condition of affairs, when heavy taxation must be enforced or the public finances be seriously endangered. ‘The business at tho oifice of the Sub-Treasury to-day was as follows :— Receipts for oustoms.

Dates by this arrival are to the 29th from Mexico City, and the 22¢ from Vera Crus. From the present condition of the country it is ovident that Maximilian’s government bas yet to pass through the most trying part of its crisis, and that peace is yet distant from his new dominions. That bas yet to learn how littie he can trust the plighted faith of the Mexicans who surround him, and how insecure the basis of any system of order that reats upon the frail support of Mexican conscicatiousnesa, If, at the bottom of this incessant turmoil, I could find @ genuine, honest attempt to found a solid government, and not base struggle for the power to keep things as they were during the last forty odd years, I could sympathize with the leaders and followers in such 4 movement. But Mexicans are neither republicans nor monarchists. They admire and practically enact the “one man power,” each man claiming to be a complete embodiment of the system, free to do whatever he pleasos, and by no means willing to surrender any natural right to the society around him. Any attempt at social orgavization neces- sarily interferes with this more than primeval system, and is distasteful. Positively, the Mexican is « truer disciple of Jenn Jacques Rousseau and his school than oven the wild tribes of equatorial Africa. At eny mo- ment during the last elf century revolution was possible in any part of the country. No government or adminis- tration was safe, and none of the fifty-eight which have existed from 1821 to 1861 was evor permitted to run its legitimate career and cloxe in peace. Why should the fifty-ninth, which is the second empire, be an exception? THE MULTTARY SITUATION ts not flattering. The withdrawal of the French pa from the country, eraftily urged as « measure that woul tend to a speedier pacification, has had a contrary effect. Men of note jn to desert the imperial cause, and the enemy, generally, assumee a bolder tone and more mena- eing aspect, ia declared against every Frenchman in country, whether in arms or not, and their in- stant execution, when captared, decreed, This very de- cree gives a confirmation to the picture I have drawn of Mexican ideas, for it does not emanate from any respon- sible quarter, much lees from Juarez, but from a junta of guerilla leaders, who are without all legitimate autho- rity to issue soch directions as are contained in this docu- ment, which they call “Instructions,” Here it is:— 1. Men who are taken for service shall mot be set at permite of capa: in which cage they” shall be: required capital, in which case requ! to furnish arms and nothing more. . 2.

It is certainly # barbarous docu- ment, well worthy of the name “The Pact of Blood,” given it bya Guadalajara newspaper. It would appear that the ‘instructions!’ are being acted upon, for the party under Gutiorrez, in Jalisco, have burned the town of Atenquillo, even to the church, and banged four drovers. In the same State, Rojas captured the town of ‘Zapotlan, but did not remain, continuing his destructive march to some point agreed upon for a general revdez- vous, Romero, with fou: hundred cavalry, attacked To- Juca, the capital of the Department of Mexico, but re- Ured, after losing twenty-one men. Tn short, the whole country from there to the coast swarms with itiless: uerilias, whose acts annoy very little, if at ali, the rench “invaders,” who are gencrally miles away from the points attacked. The sufferers from these depre- dations aro the poor Mexican people, in whose name, ‘® strange and anomalous political fiction, the most atrocious excenees are committed on themsslves and families by their self styled champions aud protectors. For instance, the first aitack of Romero on Toluca having been repulsed, he returned to the charge some days later; but even then the presence of » single company of Zouaves frightened his cowardly fol- lowers, and they turned away, after exchanging a few shots with the garrison, to vent their anger elsewhere, and falling on the little town of Metepec, where there was not asingle Frenchman, sacked it and committed bloody barbarities which ought to shock the fiercest = holder of the Monroe doctrine.

It was a distressing sight (o stand amid she ruins yesterday and contemplate the destruction of property, and the more shocking destruction of human: life. We have it from excellent authority that all the property de- stroyed was enveloped within thirty minutes. The bu oil spread from house to hou: south from Washington avenue, across Ellsworth stre: to Federal street, and running down the cellar widows the dwellings and stores, involved the whole of them in a terrible, raging, leaping, crackitng, roaring blaze, Those of the police and firemen who were early at the scene say that it was impossible w awaken the hear rn inmates. It 1s probable that they became awakened and effected their escape in the rear, saving nothing but the night clothes they had on. Amore completo wreck of tene- ments, stores, furniture and household goods generally has not been seen in this 4 since the memorable fire in 1850, that commenced in ‘* Brock‘s store,” on tho wharf below Vine strect. TEBRIBLE AND THRILLING SCENES. While the sea of fire was surging along in its resistleas ot 8 ‘@ man whose wife had died on Tuesday was com- pelled to carry her body from the house. Ima few min- utes the building was in flames, ‘We learn that the dead body of an old lady was carried out by several firemen from a houge thas avon after ignited and was m a sheet of flame. Two horses, valuable animals, belonging to Messre. Portor & Daly, coal dealers, were consumed. One of the animals ran wildly from the stablo into the burning oil, and fefl in leas than # minute. The other animal per- ished in the stable. ‘The Franklin Steam Engine No. 12, the Mi \- fi tng and Marion Hose Compani were the first at the eceno. The Franklin and joyamensing joined im action, and put the water on very upendily and to this ‘effort may be attributed the saving of a handsome bulld- ing. The driver, Hance H. Gwin, of the Franklin, at the mak of his life, mg} the body of Mrs. Ware from where she had fallen Inthe gutter, Her remains were fat once conveyedsto the Southwark Hall. Gcorge W. Buckman, F, A. Colmire and Gwin oxcavated the ruins, and recovered the charred remains of # man and woman. James Humes rescued a woman, whose namo wo could not learn, from a house in flames. She was burned shockingly about the hands, and slightly injured about the body from her clothes taking fire. Her condition is not considered very dangerous. ‘The chief director, Alexander Philibort, rescued a girl and baby from a room, by means of clambering over & shed. He slipped from the shed with the girl and baby on his arms and injured his back. They ail finally es- caped through @ narrow alley. iy of the firemen, citizens and police officers distinguished themselves in various ways. Just before the | quid flames commenced rushing throagh the str-ets, these men pelted the upper windows of the tenements with snowballs, which, break- tng the glass, awakened tho inmates to a sens? of danger. But for this the loss of life would, unquestionably, have been grater than it was, It may bo stated that the whole of the property de- stroyed was Involved in flames with’n the space of thirty minutes, The sireets being flooded with water and suow, the water courses and sewer inlets beng ehoked ap, the burning oil spreading with great celerity over the 'sur- face, reached from house to house on both sides of the way, and ran in burning s#troame into the cellare. This ts what caused such an immense destruction of houses. Yesterday afternoon policemen were engaged in pall Ing down the most tottering walls, or those most likely to fall, thus to prevent any accidents, What may a)pear strange, yet it can be easily understood, there were seve- ral hundrd barrels of petroleum in the northwestero part of the enclosure that did not take fire. The grade of thp yard ran downward from this poiot, and the wind, flerce av it was, came from the north or northwest. The fromen kept aconstant supply of water on these bar rels until ths height of the conflagration had passed. There ure several othor places in that neighborhood where consid ‘rable quantities of coal oil are stored. It te mn eee Ute to those who pass aloo; because it almost entirely hidden from view by sur- rounding dwelling houses. A firo in such # place would, in all probability, be attended with loss of life, ‘THE ORIGIN. ‘The origin of tho fire ts attributed to the work of eign. It id that a woman saw a fire burning un the shed half an hour before the oil ignited. This was a current re ‘but it certainly needs confirmation ‘the subject ts left to the authorities to ferret out, The Loss by the Fire. Pamapecrma, Feb. 0, 1868 ‘The loss by the fire yestorday is ever $500,000. The loss on coal oll is $75,000. Only one-third of the total loss is insured. Over one hundred structures of various kinds were destroyed.

NEWS FROM KEY WEST. Our Key West Correspondence. Key Waar, Fia., Jan. 31, 1868. Capture of Te Prisa—The Wrak of the San dacinle Burned by Wreckers—They Attach te Sam Jacins's Crew, dc. ‘Two prises were brought foto this port yesterday even- ing, captured up the Florida coast by the vigilant cruisers of the Ext Gulf squadron. The Orat, in ordor of time, is the British schooner Augusta, captured on the 19th inst. by the boats of the United States steamer Honeysuckle ia the Suwanee river. The papers found on board the prize showed that she had cleared from Havana ostensibly for Matamoros, She had on board a cargo of flour, lead and gunny bags for the rebel goverument, Previous to her capture the crew had gone ashore, and had throwa sbout two hundred pigs of lead overboard. The British schoover Fanny McRae was captured off ‘Warrior Point on the 24th inatant by the schooner Fox, Yonder to the United States steamer Heudnk Hudsoa. Bhe also had cleared from Havana for Matamoros. She ‘was loaded with lead, muskets, cartridge boxes and other munitions ef war. A lot of correspondence, between rebel agonts at Havana and in Florida, has been captured, ‘ensuring the condemuation of tha vessel. The name of her captain is the familiar one of Smith. An impression generally prevails here tha’, tn conse- quence of the capture of Fort Fisher, and the consequent sealing w ofan vont of Wimaington, 8 good business ts Ulsely to be done in these parts in capture of block- } ade runners. Intelligence has reached here from No Name Key, the. place whore the San Jacinto was wrecked, that a 'y of wreckers arrived there in a body and set fire to the wreck, totally cons:ming all of the vessel that wasout of water. They then landed, ar:ed, and attacked the ship- wrecked mon, with the design of driving them eff the Key. ‘They were stoutly and shots were exchanged; but, as the night was dark, it docs not appear that any one was hurt on either side. It is supposed that the rufflans were exasperated at the tenacity with which ‘Captain Meade clung to the wreck, by remaining on tho Key, and therefore they royed all of it that was above water, in order to be able to prefer their claim to what remained beneath the surface. It is likely that their principal se in es ‘a4 to seoure the money safe of the tan Jacinto. Mr. Brown, the magistrate at Green Turtle Key, is said to have expressed his determination to visit with the utmost rigor of the law every oue of the scoundrels whe may fall into his hands. Captain Meade, his officers and crew way arrive here im the Honduras any moment. Quite a quantity of supplies bave arrived here from the Sanitary Commission at New York for the sick suldiers and otliers. Atong the articles are two bottles of lime juice. This is like sending coals to Newcastle. The ime flourishes so luxuriously, and bears so abundantly here that hundreds of bushels per annum drop from the trees and rot for the want of people to consume them. Indeed, I have often wondered thats trade has never been opened hore with New York in an article go co! stantly in demand in the latter place. However, the Sanitary Commiasion do not deserve the less credit be- cause they thought that lime juice was in demand here, and go sent it for the alleviation of human suffering, CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, Reports on the City Piers and Wharves=— Battery Extension and Savannah Re- Mef Movement—The Seizure of Cotton— Letters and Memorial from Savannah Merchants, d&c.

Ttis known upou the occ:pation of the &, by General Sherman's army about ie’ thousand bales of cotton, chiefly the property of private cit zens, were found in the warehouses. @ Whole of this property it is now pro to transfer to the Treasury of the United Biates, and I may not conceal from your Excellency the disastrous influence such ® m*asure must exert upen the State. It will exasperate the people, prolong the war and restrict all future military acquisitions in Georgia to Darren conqurrts.
