FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. : Farivar, May 15-6 P. M. ‘The gold market was steady and dull from the ‘opening to te adjournment of the board, and the Suctus from 139% to 139%, with the clos Ing transactions at 19%; but late in the afternoon the quotation declined to 139% a 1395; under sales by speculators operating on the belief that the Presi- dent will not be deposed and that the effect of a deci- Hon in his favor will be to depress the premium nd for coin, and loaus were made atfrom three to ve per cent er annum for carrying. The gross ngs amounted to $42,887,000, the gold balances © $1,489,478 and the currency balances to $2,035,762. The Assistant Treasurer was neither a seller of gold hora buyer of seven-thirty notes during the day. Mhose who look forany material change in the pre- nium growing out of the result of the impeachment trial are likely to be disappointed, but to a limited ent its tendency may be downward for a few days the event of acquittal, while it may be lightly upward should an opposite decision pe arrived at. The future financial legislation n Congress is now beginning to attract attention, nd as soon as the impeachment trial has passed into history this will doubtless be the engrossing of public interest. The Committee vf Ways nd Means have already introduced a new internal enue dill into the House of Representatives, hich was ordered to be printed and recommitted, his bill provides that the Internat Revenue Bureau be a separate and independent department, nder the control of a commissioner, instead of be- , 88 at present, a branch of the Treasury Depart- heat, It makes special provision for the more efi- lent collection of the whiskey tax, and among other hings requires that distillers shall own the fee sim- le cf their distiilery property. The bill is designed P entirely supersede the existing Internal Revenue ws, and in some important respects it is superior them; but it is still, as a whole, defective. In ® course of the debates upon it in both houses, Pwever, there will be ainpie opportunity for revision hdimprovement. The fact of making the bureau dependent of the Treasury Department will throw le whole responsibility of collecting the revenue pon the comznissioner, and great care must be ken in his selection; but in the hands of honest en the new bill promises to be more productive n the acts now in force. he money market is gradually working easier id the banks are free lenders on stock collaterals at per cent, while they discount their customers’ per at seven. ‘The amount of this offering is, how- jer, 80 small that they have to rely upon Wall street the employment of their funds. There is no to note in the condition of domestic ex- nges, the Now of curreucy being towards this ptre, The May compound interest notes ma- ed to-day, and of these there were a short time P $23,927,000 outstanding. About twelve millions d been preseated by the banks at the Sub-Treasury d the principal and interest paid in three per cent ificates up to three o'clock. It is the policy of p Treasury to pay dut the three per cent certifl- es in redemption of t..ese notes held by the banks, luding the accrued interest, as rapidly as poss , aad nearly twenty-two millions of the former pained unissued on the 1st inst. he monetary ease seems to exert no influence in inulating speculation on the Stock Exchange, and railway share market is stillin “the doldrums,” mariners say of the calm latitudes, There is an bsual absence of orders either to buy or sell pugh the commission houses, and they accord- iy complain of the dulness and their inability to @ their current expenses. During the morning pes were drooping. but in the afternoon their irse was reversed, although there was no anima- in the dealings. Speculation is held in check pie suspense with which the final result of the eachment trial is awaited. The cliques in some he Western shares are, however, “washing” them ard a little; but as the most deeply watered ks are precisely those which are the most ly inflated there is no chance of investors buying m, and the cliques will therefore have to depend heir market upon the “shorts” and the brokers other proiessioua! speculators of the street. At peting of ‘.e divcctors of the Chicago and North- ern Ratiway Company, held to-day, it was ed to “water” its common and preferred shares é amount of one-tenth of the capital stock, with lew, apparently, of advancing its market value, Present directors being large hoiders of the How a company which cannot pay éash ends, however, can be benefited by declaring Hends in stock it is hard to see, and in order to pver the motive which underlies it we must turn ‘all street and stockjobbing. The real interests ockholders are bemg sacrificed by the wanton gement of railway directors, and time wiil the fact in @ manner anything but pleasant to ormer. e was astrong but quiet market for govern- securities all day, and prices experienced a frac- improvement in some instances, The demand Mainly for investment, the transactions between Healers being light. The conversions of seven- notes into five-twenty bonds are going forward ely, those at the Sub-Treasury yesterday having ted $848,700, The disbursements in this city ment of the May interest on the public debt ited $12,641,000 up to the close of business irday, the drain from this source having slightly ded $400,000 per day.

WEW OCEAN TELEGRAPH CABLES, The New Cuban Cable—The Proposed Cable te Central America, ‘The announcement was made in the HeRat.p some weeks ago that the International Ocean Tele- graph Company had decided to lay another cable from Havana to their Florida terminus, across the Gulf of Mexico. p The success of the cable laid last year was 80 com- plete and the business transmitted over the line so large that the single cable has been found almost inadequate to give the business prompt despatch without a severe tax upon the management. This fact, in connection with the fear that an accident may at any moment occur to interrupt communications across the Gulf, induced the company to take the necessary steps to sub- merge another cable. For this purpose the Presi- dent, General W. F. Smith, proceeded to England some weeks ago, vested with full power to contract for the cable, He has completed his mission and effected a con- tract with the India Rubber and Gutta Percha Com- Pany of Silvertown, London, the makers of the cable of last year, for a cable, which has already been completed and delivered to the company’s agent in London, and the General sailed for New York on Saturday last. by the Russia. The steamship Narva, Lieutenant George Dowell, R. N. R., which laid the cable of last year, has been chartered to lay this one. She has just taken on board the new cable, and left England yester- day for Key West, where the electricians, en- gineers, General Smith and other officers of the company will join her and commence work about the 15th of June, so as to have it completed be- fore the appearance of the yellow fever, from the ravages of which 60 many deaths occurred on the Narva last year, DESCRIPTION OF THE NEW CABLE. The cabie is of three sizes, The largest, or shore end, nine and a quarter miles in length, is composed of seven copper insulating wires, then a covering of three coats of a coinposition of gutta percha and tanned jute yarn suiicient to receive a sheathing of twelve OO iron galvanized wires, that are put on spir- ally. Outside of the OO wires there is a coating of Clark & Bright's compound of tar, rubber and as- pauitum, and a half inch coating of hempen cord. t is claimed that cables of this manufacture are less atfected by the action of waves and currents than are those where the wires are exposed. The deep sea cable is similar in construction to the shore end, except tuat it has but nine OO galval wires, and is of a much lighter and smaller d tion, The medium size, 2ecable, has but iron gat ized wires. variou clions are alike in ery particular pting size and number of 00 wi HE LAYING OF THE CARL The experience of tien the English en- @ineer, beheving that ii scovered a westerly current, ohai ced ute | against the piotest of tn ! arva and tue pilot, and paid out ab miles of wire use- lessly, will bs ot, Tue cor that the electricians of the Unt ave reacied that point of experionce, wii perform the work of consign. ing Uke cable to the ‘orlny veep by Ameri cah workmen, Yet it has been” deemed advisable te have an experienced ‘ead to direct the work, and St: Charies Brigut, who hi acquired a world-wide reputation from his connection with the Atlantic cables, has been secured to superintend tue laying. General Smith, who is an engineer of con- siderable reputation, will accompany the expedition and lend his valuable aid to tue undertaking. jog by pust experiences, 1t Is safe to pr time will be consumed in laying the cable, un- lesa another “westerly current” shouid be discovered by Sir Charles, THE BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY, The Cuban cable was opencd for business on tbe vening of September 7, 1807, under very unfavor- now that auspices, yet it is gratifying to business of the line, as is importance becomes known in Europe, Is gradually iucreasing and Ro eemipe Weis most bet or expectations of its promoters. e receipts at the Havana o.tice for several weeks have been $7,00) per week in gold, while the business transmitted from Europe and the United States to the West Indves is much iarger in propor- tion, owing to the fact of the advantages cf the line being better known at this end of the linc. At the present time the company {s doing double the busi- ness of last January, aud the prospects are that when the second cabie is laid, aud fucilities for trans.vis- mission are increased, the receipts will be much larger. THE AID FROM THE SPANISH GOVERNMENT. The company has been tendered the assistance of the Spanish squadron in the Gulf. The United States vessels-of-war will also join the expedition and ren- der all the aid required in the work of su»merging the cable. The Central American Cabic. It has already been aunounced that a av iaber of telegraph men and capitalists of this country and Europe had taken the preliminaries towards forming a@ company to connect Panama with the United States via the Cuban cable now extending to the island of Cuba. General Sinith, of the Cuban cable, who is in Europe, had authority to take the neces- sary steps In England to secure stock, and the com- pany is still in embryo until his return, The enter- sy however, has secured the aid and approval of english capitalists Intecested in the Panuma and South American trade as well as telegraph lines, and it is expected that the larger share of the stock will be taken by them. The company will be capitalized upon the cost of the cable, and, as the soundings have not been completed, no estimate can be made, The United States steamer Gettysburg, Comman- der John Irwin, late of the Lenapee, that assisted in laying the Cuban cable last year, is now engaged in these soundings. When the probable expense is ascertained the contracts will be made, the compan, organized and the work pushed to completion Arith all possible despatch, General Sandford is the active head of the com- pany, and, with the energetic assistance of gentle- men of influence associated with him, it is safe to predict the early completion of the cable to the hinus.
