2 FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. Sunpay, Maroh 26, 1865. The continued panic in the gold room nearly all last weok produced extrome depression on the Stock Ex change and in every branch of trade. The produce and merchendise markets were dimost paralyzed, and the whole financial, mercantile and manufacturing commu- nity, exeopling the few who had sold gold or stocks “short,” looked with visble apprehension upon the stormy seene as one portending grave disaster to themselves, With the fall of gold from 2344 in January the “bears” had acquired such strength in the gold and stock markets that they found themselves in almost undisputed control of both. The whole herd of ‘gold speculators and nearly all the members of the Stock Exchange were pulling one way, and selling short with a vigor which promised in the course of no long timo, in the absence of an opposing force, to reduce everything to nothing, Such bear gardens as the gold room and Stock Exchange were turned into reduced the frolies of the bull in the China shop to tameness, if not insignificance. There was a general hammoring and smashing, without regard to consequences. One large gold house, several small ones, and a couple of stock houses, whe happened to be on the wrong side, perished in the onslaught, and some others have ‘been nearly pressod out of existence. A few of the bears have retired from the fleld satisfled with their spoils; but the majority still stand lioking at gold as a thing to undergo further “sweating,” and at stocks as lemons in the hands of a punch maker, to be more and more Squeezed, (il! there is very little juice left in them. The most formidable of these—the grizzlies of the species—attacked government sgcurities with the same ravenous propensities that they displayed towards gold and railway stocks, They sold them ‘‘short” in large amounts, and although some of them have “covered,” there is still a consid:rable short interest outstanding. But, although they cannot close their contracts, un- less at a loss, they aro still confident of being able to so bawmer the gold market that governments and stocks generally will have to give way. If these gentle- men were ered" in Fort Lafayette or elsewhere it would hardly cail for an outburst of public indignation, ‘The public credit s not a thing to be played with for the self- aggrandi ont of Wall street speculators, and the man who forms one of a combination to produce a gold panic, and a panic in governments, at a critical juncture like the present, when large supplies of money are ab- wolutely n ceded from day to day for carrying on the war, bas no real patriotism, however loud his professions on that score may be. But tho tide of panic has turned. The gold market has deen fortunately steadied, and there is good reason to look for a recovery {rom the sudden heavy decline both in gold and stocks. Five twenties, which sold at 1113¢ at the beginning of the month, sold on Saturday at 105 \4, although they had failen four per cent below this point at the Stock Board on Tuesday morning. The sudden- ness of this fail presented one of the strongest practical arguments against the panic which was boing promoted in the gold room to those best acquainted with all the bearings of the case. If the currency should be appre- ciated te par, or specie payments be resumed, all values would, to a certain extent, be gradually adjusted upon the hard cash basis. But of this there is no prospect for a vory long time to come, and therefore we must calculate by the existing standard rather than by any future ono which may be established. Five. twonties sold at 107 a 1103¢ when gold varied from 159 to | 169% in March, 1864, and as high as 114 in April of the samo year. The prosent depression is therefore exces- sive. Ten-forties sold at 102% last month, and they are now only 9134. The following table shows the prices of six per cent bonds during the first half year of 1864, when gold ranged from 151 to 198% :— Price of Gold, Covp, 6's, 1881.

About a week ago tho total currency issues of the latter was re- ported to be $104,750,540, the increase during the pre- $3,200,000; but it would be an credit and strengthen sub- advantage to the public scriptions to the seven-thirty loan, as well as exert @ favorable influence upon the market price of all national securities if the people were kept regularly informed of the condition of the finances. The omission t) issve such a statement is likely to be attributed toa pusiijanimous motive and a desire to avoid criticism; but in any case its effect is bad both at home and abroad, and it ig.much more likely to lead to exaggerated ideas of our indebtedness and expenditure than otherwise. The unpaid requisitions are supposed to be about three hundred millions, byt it is probable that they are, in reality, a great deal less. Whore thero is doubt there is likely to be distrust, and, therefore, the more the Secre- tary of the Treasury takes the people into his confdenco the better. The extreme depression in the dry goods trade has re- duced the market to a state bordering on panic, and al- though only three prominent houses have as yet sus- pended, other failures of magnitude are rumored, while but for the extensions of time which have been granted by accommodating creditors, there is no doubt that much more havoc would have been already apparent on the surface. The decline in raw cotton during the last fortnight has been equal to thirty-five cents per pound, and that which is now dificult of sale at forty cents per pound, not many months ago sold for $1 95. Meanwhile nearly thirty- nine thousand bales of Savannah cotton arc, hanging over the market, In this condition of the market"for the raw material a corresponding depression in manutac- tures is not to be resisted, and hence those who have stocks bought om credit are very heavy losers, while those who bought forcash and sold on credit before the recent fall are proportionate gainers, provided they receive payment. The importers have suffered much less severely than the dealers in domestic fabrics in consequence of the turn of exchange in their favor, The future of the latter looks worse than the present, and, therefore, jobbers are actively underselling the commiss.on houses; but wher? sales of small parcels are forced it is at a considerabl» sacrifice below current rates, and if apy attempt were made to force large lots there would bo in all probability a fresh break, which would lead to panic and numerous bankruptcies. The present season of the year is usually an active and en- couraging one in the trade; for with the opening of navi- gation an impetus used to be given to business; but the ‘times have changed, and with it the fortunes of those whose lot is cast among dry goods. ‘The general markets Lave sympathized with the sud- den decline of gold; but they have felt it more in the stagnation it has produced than in the positive fall of prices, those ruling at present not being supported by any strong demand, Holders would be unaole to sell any considerable portions of their stocks at these rates, as there is a general disposition, both in the wholesale and retail trade, as woll as among the community gene. rally, to purchase no more than is indispensable. Forced sales, therefore, could only be made at a sacrifice. It is reported that all the cotton captured at Savannah has boon shipped. The quantity is 38,076 bales, 32,088 of which are upland, and 5,988 Sea Island. Most of it hasal- ready arrived, and is stored in the government warehouses on Staten Island. The time for its sale here has not yet been decided upon, but it is satisfactory to learn that the governmont has no intention of committing such a biunder as ite exportation to England would Involve. Apart ffom the efforts which the holders of the rebel loan would have probably mado to have it attached, it would have been a vory poor financial -oporation, while our own manufacturers would have afterwards been compelled to pay higher prices in a foreign market for the samé cotton. Tho marked depression which now prevail In British financial and commercial affairs is in strong contras\ with the buoyant prosperity and inflation of values which provailed betwoon the autumn of 1861 and that of 1864, and seems somewhat anomalous in the face of an easy money inarket and with the Bank of England rate of dis- count down to 43 per cent, But each succeeding steam'r has of late informed us of @ further decline in the prices of products and securities of all kinds, consoly not excopted, ‘This is clearly, to a great oxtent, the result of tho anticipated speedy re- sumption of trade with this tountry, the influx of South- erm prodtice and the consequent diversion of capital in our favor, involving the collapse of many of the new . financial and commercial companies to which the war in the United States indirectly gave existence. In our comparison of the market values of the leading railway stocks in January, 1864, and at the present time, we intended to speak of their curreacy value boing from forty sixty-five dollars per share less now tha: thea, not their gold value of course. Gold was at that time at about its present range, its fluctuations during the month mentioned having beon between 15134 to 159%.
