2 SS FINANCIAL “AND COMMERCIAL. oc Fauway, July 28—6 P. M. * ame stock market was active, but less buoyant than Yesterday, at the first board this morning. Erie was 134 Jower'than at the second board on Thursday, Hudson River 1%, Reading %. Michigan Southern was 1 higher, Now York Central 44, Cleveland and Pittsburg 34, Rock Island 4, Fort Wayne 34, Ohio and Mississippi certifl- cates %, Quicksilver 3g. Government seourities were stronger. Coupon five-twenties advanced 34, and new issue 5. At the open board, at one o'clock, the market was active, and prices were 34 alg higher on @ portion of the list and a fraction lower on the remainder, At the second regular board it was depressed, New York Cen- tra} closed on the call 14 lower than at the first board, Erie 1, Hudson River %, Michigan Southern 134, Cleve- Jand and Pittsburg 1}¢, Northwestern %, Fort Wayne 34, Ohio and Mississippi certificates 34, Quicksilver 1, Government securities were steady, Coupon five- twenties wore in demand at 105% a 106, and the indica- tions aro in favor of a further advance. After the call Erie declined to 92, under a strong pres- sure to sell, butit quickly reacted, and at the second ‘open board sold up to 96. Hudson River also advanced to 11344, Reatling 107%, Michigan Southern 68%, Cleve- land and Pittsburg 7334, Rock Island 109, Northwestern 28, Ohio and Mississippi certificates 2574 (b.3), Canton {b.3) 40, Afterwards, on the street, the market continued very “active, and Erie rose to 98 soon after five o'clock. It was at the same time reported that the broker repre- senting the speculative director of the road had given notice of tho recall of the stock he had loaned. Money was more active, and there were no transae- tions of importance under seven per cent for call loans, ‘The discount line is firm at 7a9 per cent for the best grade of mercantile paper. Gold reacted this morning from the extreme price of last pight—147. The market openod at 14634, and by hhalf-past eleven had receded to 14454, after which and ‘efore two o'clock it advanced to 146, then relapsed 9, and at half-past four stood at 14534. The rise in the premium in the absence of a demand for export isa source of somo surprise in as well as out of Wall street, and is traceable to purely speculative influences, although there are good reasons for supposing that gold swill be considerably higher before the country returns to specie payments. The bull operators, who are heavily saddled with gold, are anticipating the future a little too fast, and the market may, if stimulated much fur- ther, recoil upon themselves. Meanwhile they are buying up all the gold that is offered at the mar- ket price, and it is rumored that they have been large borrowers of currency to-day, The promptitude with which the Mexican canard was acted upon yesterday was very suspicious, and speaks badly for the commercial morality of some of the present bull party. ‘The Gold Room is now situated in the new building in New street, which has an entrance also on Broad street.

The public disbursements are equal to the re- ceipts, and this prevents any scarcity of currency that might otherwise occur. Note buyers are offering to take prime four months’ paper at Seven per cent, but very fair names are sold ag eight and nine. The stock ‘et is rather dull for almost everything except the arities of the United States, which are in good favor for investment, ‘The Marictta and Cincinnati Railroad earned during the third week in July $72,318, an increase over the re- ce pts for the same time in 1864 of $14,444.

But for the export of securities, however, ithe condition of the foreign trade would warrant a higher fand very firm market for exshange. j Tho speculative director in Erio is evidently laying plans to corner" the stock, and bleed all those who ‘poll it ‘short’ accordingly. The stock cannot in fact be cornered ; but it can temporarily be made so scarce on the istroct that some pressure may be brought upon tho ‘boars to cover. The ridiculous spectacle of a heavy stock like this fluctuating sx por centinacouple of hours shows the hollowness and excecding instability of dts market value, It is a mere shuttlecock in the hands ‘of speculators, and to play with it is to take part in a game the issue of which is as uncertain as a throw of dice. Yet a leading director of the road is the banker at this great gambling table, and who can say jthat he doos not make his official position (tributary to the suctess of his operations in Wall street Wor a director of an important line Of railway to have ‘the speculative control of its stock is hardly a desirable ‘circumstance for the company, and certainly not one calculated to lead to an improvement in railway mannge- ment, the long prevailing corruption in which cannot bo too strongly condemned. he general tendency of prices is upward, but a too rapid movement in that direction leads to frequent re- actions and a spasmodic condition of the market. Stocks are scarcer in Wall street than they were @ year ago, {investors having meanwhile bought them up, and this affords an argument in favor of the bulls; but the public amust not lose sight of the fact that the present riso is ‘@ Wall street movement, and that it will be followed by a fall so surely as night follows day.

A committee, consisting of Messrs, Jones, of the Chem- ical Bank ; Coe, of the American Exchango; Calhoun, of Fourth National, tmythe, of the Central National; milye, of the Merchants’; Macy, of the Leather Man- ufactarers’, New York; rs, of the Tradome: Commins, of the Girard; Cattell, of the Corn Exchan, Bank, Philadeiphia; end A. T.’ Hall, of the Tremont; ational Redemption; Stetson, of the Shoe National, ond Walley, of the Revere Bank, met in the city of New York on the 11th day of 1865, at ton o'clock !u the morning, for the purpose forring together in behalf of the banks of the three upon the subject of national bank note redemption, ‘The committee was organized by the appointment of Androw T. Hall as Chairman, and William A, Camp, Munger of the Clearing House, as Secretary. a full discussion the following resolution was unanimouely adopted :— That Mesers. Hall, Smythe, Coe, Jones, Cummins, Walley be @ committee to recommend & general plan of redemption of the national currency for which shall make it imperative on the vunks in New York, Philadelphia and Boston to ro- ceive on deporit the bills of all national banks which are redeemable in cither of said three cities, which )jan shall alse include a eeparate redemption in New phia and Boston, at par, of the bills of all banks which arrange for redemption in those cities, Also, the return of all national currency not redeemed in cither of these cilies to their respective locations for redemption, at the joint expense, pro rata, of the three cities, such currency to be forwarded by Philade!phia and Boston to New York, and ail such currency fo be sent home by New York; and that not less than forty days’ notice shall be given when the system is to go into operation. ‘The sab-committes appointed by the above vote pre- pared the following as a general scheme for the por re. emption upon the basis of said resolution, and repatred t) Washington to confer with the Honorable Secretary of theTreasury and the Comptroticr of theCurrency, as to its adoption :— ‘Fird--The banks which aro assoctated in the Clearing Houses of the cities of New York, Philadelphia and os. ton shall receive on deposit, at par, the bills of all na tional banks ‘which mak» provision for the redemption of their bills at either of the above named cities. Second—Kach of eaid three cities ehall, from time to time, notify the other twa (by the Clearing House or re- deeming bank) of the nathes and location of all the banks which redeom their bills in_said city, and shall continue to receive for redemption the bills of all such banks, ‘until they bave notified such cities that they no longer redeem the bills of any particular bank designated in such notice; and all bills on hand when said notice ts re- ceived are to bo redeemed. Third—The redeeming bank or banks, in cagh of sald ‘The Secretary of the Treasury has addressed the fol- |° three cities, shall send to each of the other two cities the bills of the banks which for redempti said wiht," bey es sane oe as which ere. Hourth—! an days’ notice shall be given (which notice shall be signed by the commitice of the associated banks of the three avr et this plan of par redemption, and that ail bills shall received at par on deposit in all the banks of said three cities, which are re- deemed in either of said cities, and that all bills not thus redeemed will be immediately sent home for redemption according to law. Fif'h—Aiter the expiration of the time allowed by the aforesaid notice all national currency, which may in any manner come into the possession of any bank in either city, for the redemption of which no provision shall have been made either in New York, Philadelphia or Boston, shall be forwarded to New York, and shall be sent home to its proper locality by the clearing or sort- ing house in New York, the expenses of each city, in sending to the other, to be borne by the city forwarding the bills, and the expenses incurred by New York in sending bills of non-redeeming banks to their resp ctive locality to be charged New York pro rata to the banks of Philadelphia and Boston, so far as they may have sent such bills to New York. ‘Tho committee were pleased to find the gentlemen at Washingion fully alive to the importance of this subject, and earnestly desirous that prompt and efficient meas- ures should be speedily adopted to secure and establish a well arranged system of regular and efficient redemp- tion of the national currency. ‘They were impressed with the opinion that in order to the p:rmanency and stability of this currency, as en- titled to the character of being truly national, it was of the utmost importance that all concerned in the manage- ment of these banks should feel a deep solicitude to guard the system from any danger to which it would be exposed from a wantof foresight and seasonable prepar- ation. They felt, also, incommon with the committee, that the return of peace must bring about such marked and rapid changes in the financial condition of the country ‘as would demand the most carnest and vigilant circum- spection of the currency, Mts elasticity and readiness, not for convertibility, but for payment on presentation, in the lawfal moncy of the country. They felt that the return of the army and navy and the withdrawal of the government from the market as a purchaser, must of necessity throw a large amount of this currency, which now has a scattered and national circulation, upon the communities and banks by whom it was issued, thus calling for rapid and large redemptions, and that as this return is to take place at once, it is wise to take immediate measures to call attention to the subject, and have the banks and the merchants prepared for the change and contraction which peace and a return to the normal condition of things must soon effect. ‘The heads of the Currency Department at Washington have promised to lend all the aid in their power, and afford eyery facility to the banks in securing such a system of redemption as will cause every bank that issues a Dill to feel bound by a regard to its own self-preserva- tion, as well as good name, to be provided with the means of payment on presentation. ‘They are fully aware that in no other manner can tho system continue to provide a genuine “national cur- rency,” and thus to fulfill the promises and prodiotions of the founders and sanguine friends of the national or- ganization. It is now for the banks, therefore, to move with har- mony and vigor, assured that they have the countenance and support of the government, In the arrangement of the necessary details for the management ‘of this financial scheme, time and expe- rience are important elements, We must commence with what knowledge we possess, and trust to time and continued trials to expose errors and suggest improvements. Your committee have had_ interviews with the Ivading express agents, and whilo they have not been able to agree upon definite rates, owing to the want of authority ‘on the part of your committe to contract on any terms, they are assured by theso gentlemen that there will be ho practical dimeulty likely to arise in the arrangement 2 a tariff of prices for the work to bo performed by | them. ‘The expenses incurred by the interchanges between the three cities must, of course, be borne proportionately ag it may appear on trial what amount cach city imposes of the labor and expense necessary to the full accom- plishment of thorough and prompt redomption. ‘These expenses can only be approximated by very general estimates till the experiment has been tested. ‘Those conversant with the daily businoss of trans- mitting bills can form a general estimate of cost per thousand. The undersigned will suggest an additional article of agreement to those contained in the previous general scheme for par redemption, viz:—that it shall be obli- gatory | aevegae banks of the association not to pay out national k notes other than those issued by banks of the three cities, and that tie associated banks decline to receive from col mts the notes of banks which shall refuse to redecm in one of the three cities; although they take such bills at their counters on de- posit from regular customers as long as required by law to receive them in payment of debts due to bunks. PLAN FOR AN ASSORTING-HOUSK IN THN CITY OF NEW YORK. ‘First—Appoint a committee of nine bank officers, who may be styled the Redemption Committee of the Asso- ciated Banks, who shall receive from the several mem- bers of the Clearing House Association, such national bank notes as they may desire to deposit’ with them for redemption, and who shall be empowered to issue for such notes certificates to be called redemption certificates, which shall bear interest at the rate of six per centum per annum, to be paid by the banks & whom the certiti- cates are issued. ‘Such certificates shall be available for Clearing House purposes in the settlement of balances, and shal! state ‘on their face that they are payable only in coin or United States legal tender notes, ‘The interest received by the committee on said cer- tificates to be paid monthly to the banks, according as they may havo held the eame, each bunk’ being required to repost dali Sen manager of the Clearing fHoure the amount held by ‘The certificates to be signed by at least three of the committee.

Fiurh—Tho committee shall have a desk assigned them at the emorag sigungeres through which the retire- t ment of certifioates, redemption of notes redeemable in New York, and return of the ten per ceut margin can be made daily. Fifth—Tho expenses of the Aseorting Honse, of the eonimittee and for the redemption of notes shall be paid by each bank, availing itwelf of ite privileges, in exact omy to the amount delivered to the Assorting jouse, to be drawn for by the committes or their secre- tary, on the first day of each month, or as soon thereaf- ter as the expenses can be ascertained and apportioned. ‘Sizth—hould any bank il to redeem its notes when ted for that by an agent of the commitwe faid committee shall have power to take such action as they may deem necessary for their redemption, under the National Banking law, and the loss or expense at- tending such action by said committee shall be borne in the same manner and proportion as the regular expenses of the Assorting House. Should any loes occur from fire, robbery, defalcation, or from any other cause not provided for in this plan, such loss shal be borne pro raia to the amount received from each bank, based on the average of the previous thirty days’ transactions with the Aseorting House. Seven’)—Bank notes ie at New Orleant Leavenworth, San Francisco or any point south Cairo, west of the Mississippi river, unless redeemable in one of the three cities before mentioned, shall not be received on deposit by the associated banks, and should any such notes be found in the packages deposited for assorting and redemption, such notes shall be returned by the committeo, through the Clearing House, to the bank from whom they were received. Highth—Ail deposits of currency made with the com- mittee must be in sealed packages of not over five thou- sand dollars, except packages containing notes of the denomination of fifty dollars and upward, which may be put in packayes of ten or twenty thousand dollars each, Kha in all casos in even thousands, distinctly marked with the amount, the name of the bank depositing them and bearing its seal; and all such deposits must be made before eleven o'clock in the morning on each day.

Eleventh—Banks not members of the Clearing House As | gociation, who now or hereafter make their exchanges through other banks, members thereof, shall be required, as aecondition of continuance, to co-operate with the association in this plan for the redemption of national currency. ‘The report is said to have the approval of the Comp- troller of the Currency.

Judge Edmonds did not announce amy particular theme, but opened a large section of the areana of human learn- ing and attainments, and eloquently discoursed upon every theme known to tho cultured scholar. Upona pending issue—that of negro suffrage—Judge Edmonds was explicit, holding that universal suffrage was alone consistent with a broad freedom, fully favoring the ex- tension of the suffrage to the blacks of the South, with- out the slightest qualification. He held that the question of State rights must be settled now, and now only, for- ever and ever. He alluded to-emigration, the national debt, arbitrary arrests, taxation, the unequal distribution of wealth, the danger of our immense military resources, the readmission of the rebellious States, and a large nanbee of other gubjects, the whole embracing a most ly and entertaining discourse of upwards of an CITY COMMEROIAL REPORt.
