8 FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. 34034, with the cloging transactions at 140. There was a very active borrowing demand for coin, and leaps were made without interest to either bor- rower or lender, and at 2 a 6 per cent per annum end 1-64 per diem for borrowing. The gross clear- tional. bank notes, and the budget present- ed by | Mr. Schenck, the chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means, is much mere: satisfactory than was generally anticipated. ‘The customs receipts alone during the present fiscal year will exceed. the interest on the entire public debt by more than forty millions, and the estimated excess from this source for the next fiscal yearis more than thirty millions. With respect to internal wevenue there need be no dificuity in raising what- ever amount is necessary; but this should not pre- vent Congress from economizing in the national expenditures, Which are still on so extravagant a retrenchment is practicable in every de- of the public service, and especially in the The suggestion of Mr. Schenck that H tax should be reduced to seventy-five ceuts per gation is entitied to consideration, and frou Uns reduction he calculates upon a revenue of soverty willions, instead of the thirteen mil- Hous weich the $2 per gallon tax yields ut present, The pew revenue bill provides for the reduction of the cost of collecting the taxes to the extent of $689,970 and places the’ department under one responsible commissioner, in the selection of whom great care will have to be taken, Without beiug subordinate to the Secretary of the Treasury, this officer should nevertheless be appointed and io removal by the President, with the consent Senate. The disbursements of coin in pay- v/iterest at the Sub-Treasury to-day amounted vw . ‘The supply of money continues superabundant, and Jouns are made almost exclusively at three per cent ou yoyernment securities and at four, and in some instances five, per cent on mixed collaterals. The glut of capital is increasing owing to the ab- ence of any demand outside of Wall street, and even there it is limited, so that the banks are com- pelied to allow a large portion of their funds to re- main idle or to mvest them in United States stocks. Trade being dull, there is very little commercial paper imaking, and the best grade is scarce and in Foqynest at ba6 percent, The Sub-Treasury has sus- pended its conversion operations until thé 5th inst. for want of a supply of bonds to issue in exchange or the seven-thirties presented, ‘The railway share market was variable and irregu- Jar during the day, fort Wayne and Rock island being weak, while Erie was firm. There was con- siderable pressure to seil the former stock, wnder which the price yielded to 112%. The Rock Island stockholders met at Chicago to-day and adjourned to Sherman’s Hotel without holding the Proposed election. It does not follow from this, however, that it will not take place, although we observe Chief Justice Dillon, of Iowa, has just issued 4p injunction restraining the directors of the Rock Isiand Company from allowing an election in Chi- ago or from recognizing any other board of directors wntil after the election in June, 1509, to which it stands: postponed by a special act of the lowa Legislature, the constitutionality of which is, however, disputed by the stockholders. A compromise between the stockholders aud the present directors is looked forward to before long. There was an effort made to “buil” Pacific Mail ‘im the afternoon by one or two professional epecuiators belonging to the open board who happen to be heavily loaded with it, and the price was bid up toxeltnpon, The market Jacks a decided tone ofany Ming, and it is so entirely artificial and under clique mavipuiation that its movements are very uncertain, and it is equally dangerous to either buy for a rise or sell “short. Government securities opened strong at an ad- Vance of 4; a‘, upon the closing prices of last even- ing, and Js they continued to improve, five- twenti 1867 selling up to 114 on the street und an excited demand, The latter are rather scarce, owing to the Treasury not having bonds enough printed to make its deliveries in exchange for seven- thirty notes sent in for conversion, and it is ex- pected that the department will be in arrear until the 16th inst., whiic the bonds of 1868 are not likely, from preseut appearance, to be ready before the end of the month. Seven-thi notes are also searece in conse- quence of there being little more than seventy mil- lions of them outstanding. Ten-forties were duil and five-twenties of 1802, 1864 and 1865 were firm and in demand from the foreign bankers. The latter have also heen large buyers of the bonds of 1867 of Tate, with the design, it is understood, of introducing them abroad. The five-twenties of 1865 are rela- tvely nearly two per cent cheaper than those of 1862, Lhe amount of accrued interest upon both being while the former possess the advantage of having three years longer torun, Both have a foreign Market; but the bonds of 1862, being better known, comme r price without any good reason, and hence a speedy approximation of their prices is more than probable. ‘The home investment demand goes on Increasing. until it has assumed dimensions unparalicled at any Ume since the first absorption Of the war loans. Specul: n naturally accompanies this, but without it speculation would soon languish, The fact that seven-thirty notes will be funded Within the present month is exerting a very *bene- Acial infuence upon the public credit, as the large amount and peculiar form of the floating debt was always, until very recently, regarded as an element of anger in estimating the future condition of the national finances. Our people are disposed to place a higher value upon United States stocks than they have hitherto done, and the European markets will of necessity sympathize with our own; but should this mot be the case fully the difference between home and foreign quotations wili be adjusted by arise in gold.

Pineapples, Bananas and Cecoanute—Statis- ties of the Spring Trade=The Facts and Figures of the Season. ‘The spring trade in West India fruits, which is now at its climax, bids fair to double that of last spring in quantity imported, notwithstanding which there has been a slight advance in prices. The pineapple crop was never finer than it has been this year, though most of the cargoes as yet landed have been composed of overripe fruit—fruit too thoroughly ripenca to be Rept on hand for any length of time. The season in this fruit has just commenced and ranges trom June 1, when the first cutting begins to arrive, to the middle, of August, when the second cutting is exhausted. The quality of the fruit this season is unusually fine and affords as good pineapples for hucksters as are ordinarily sold at the Broadway stores; which deal. almost solely in selected fruits at fancy prices. The number of car- goes thus far received has been eighteen, most of which have hailed from Baracoa, Barbor Island and Nassau, cargoes generally averaging or ranging from 2,000 to 6,000 dozens. The average of this season thus far has been about 4,000 dozens per cargo, yield- ing for the whole number of cargoes some 72,000 dozens or 864,000 separate cuttings. The price at wholesale varies so exceedingly as from $13 to $20 per hundred or from thirteen to twenty cents apiece at the wharf, where the fruit is always sold by the hundred, sometimes in assorted lots and sometimes unassorted. Extra assorted lots for the Broadway trade run as high as $25 or $30 per hundred for cut- ting, which are sold singly at the Broadway stores for from fifty to seventy-ilve cents, Very fine cut- tings have been gold for $1 a-piece this season, and even iast week the Broadway price for extra as- sorted was as high aa seventy-five cents. The statis- Vices of the trade tor this season are very easily made up, a detail from the Custom House having the or- dering of the fruit trade as a department and keeping accurate figures of arrivals from day to day, A roximate table from these records stands as fol- jows:— Number of cargoes to date.. 18 Ave T cargo (dozens). 4,000 Whoie quantity imported thus far (dozens 72,000 Or (handreds)....... 8,640 Value per hundred, average $18 ‘egate value of importation. $138,240 age retail price per cutting ( "40 ate retail value........ 345,600 percentage of rot this to the exceeding ripencss of the fruit, has been greater than @sual, having approx ated to fifteen per cent of the whoie quantity imported, The great retail mart for this fruit, and jobbers’ mart for that matter, is Washington Market, by the zens of which the greater part of the fruit im- ported is bought up.

Brom April to July the season ending in tie all banana vessela bring from | 50,000 to 60,000 cocoanuts, the nuts being packed under the bins. ‘The trade in this fruit, therefore, is mostly with Baracoa, though some few cargoes are yearly shipped from the coast of South America, Cocoanuts are shipped either with husks on or husks off—the former seiling at an average of about $96 per thousand and the latter at an average of $110 per thousand, The number of cargoes which have arrived thas far this season has been some twenty- two, the tabular statistics of the season to date standing as follows:— Total number of cargoes................ seeee 22 ‘Total number of cuttings at 60,000 per cargo. 1,100,000 Totai value, at an average of $100 per thou- sand + $110,000 It will be easy by massing these figures to estimate the whofesale valuation thus far of the three great Staples of the West India fruit trade for the spring season of 1968, a table of Which stands as follow: Pineapples, 864,000 cuttings. $2 Banauas, 125,000 stems. .

OLD JACOB BARKER AND His CREDITORS, [From the New Orleans Republican, May 30.) ‘The court was yesterday mostly taken up inthe case where the old banker Jacob Barker sees as prosecutor inst Joon B.

AND ERIE, (From the Evening Telegram of yesterday.) Boston, June 3, 1868, The American Steamship Company, which sought to make Boston the metropolis, and expended nearly a million and a half of dollars in the construction of the steamers Erie and Ontario, to ply between this port and Liverpool, is now practically defunct. Death ensued some months since, about the time the Cunarders were withdrawn, but the obsequies were reserved until to-day. They took place on board the Erie at Grand Junction wharf, East Boston, and were conducted by Horatio Harris, a well known auctioneer, and an unfortunate stockholder of the company. Joseph Tobey and several of the directors were present as chief mourners, and there were about @ hundred others assembled either from curt bony: 4 to witness the solemnities or perhaps to invest in the effects of the deceased corporation, which consisted of the steamers above nained, Auctioneer Harris, in opening the fas ww! alluded to the fact that’ the steamer Ontario ha made ber trips to Liverpool and that the Erie had never left her wharf, adding also that the first named was 2,839 tons, new tginage, and that the Erie was 2,900 tons. ProceedMy then to dispose of them at public vendue, the lirst bid for the two was made at $700,000 by lianiel Winsor, of Boston, The other bids in succession were $720,000 by W. H. Webb, of New York, and $70,000 by Mr, Comstock, of New York.

Newark. “ONLY A LOAN, JuD@E.”—Yesterday afternoon Mrs. Mary Burns, a widow woman, entered the hat store of Mr. Cox, No. 47 Market street, and requested to be shown a hat for her boy, who accompanied her. After fitting on one while the clerk’s back was turned she walked out and darted down the street. She was ognr Sy mm 4 arrested and taken before the magistrate. She said she cos “took a loan of it,’ meaning the hat. She is held for examination. BURGLARY.—The residence of Mr. Aaron Ward, Jr., @ prominent citizen of this place, was entered by burglars early yesterday morning and property, con- sisting of a handsome piano cover and some silver plate, in all valued at about $125, carried off. An quirance was effected through one of the front win- lows. BreEviries.—The twentieth anniversary of the Pro- testant Foster Home Society was held at Library Hall on Tuesday evening. The exercises, consisting of music and addresses, were of a very interesting character. John Garrity was arrested early yesterday morning charged with carrying off from Mr. J. H. Mulford’s carris factory at Orange a quantity of valuable trimmings, tc. Having confessed his guilt, he was commétted for trial, The two women Coles and Clark, suspected shop- lifters, were fully committed yesterday. The former was recognized by the oflicers of New York as a no- torious offender. An infant son of Mr. Robert Colie, of this city, was soceney drowned through having fallen into a cis- ern. The United States Convention of Hat Finishers, now being held in this city, gecngied most of yester- day in Fernie their constitution. A debate took place on the thirteenth article, which provides that only three apprentices be employed in any one shop. A motion made to increase this number to five was Rahway. TWENTY-SEVENTH ANNIVERSARY OF THE East New JERSEY BAPTIST ASSOCIATION.—Yesterday and the day previous the twenty-seventh anniversary of the East New Jersey Baptist Association was held at the First Baptist church in this city. Delegates from fifty-three churches were present, those from seven being admitted yesterday. The object of this annual reunion is to promote the general welfare of the Baptist Church throughout the district repre- sented by ® healthy interchange of religious ideas, as well as to secure @ more thorough establishment of the church. The Rev. D. 8. Morrill, oi Newark, ‘was chosen Moderator, and Rev. J. D. Merrell, of Milburn, Secretary. Messrs. H. M. Baldwin, J. R. Colby, W. J. Omberson, Nelson Dunham al . Hope were appointed trustees of the Disabled Mints- ters’ fund, to which $500 was added yesterday. The annual sermon was delivered by Rev. J. F. Elder, of Orange. The proceedings were interspersed with pleasing exercises of a religious character. The meeting will probably adjourn to-day, A DISORGANIZED COMMON COUNCIL.—Owing to a failure to agree on the election of a representative from the Fourth ward, the members of the new Commgn Council, elected in April, have as yet failed to organize as a board, The result is that those par- ties having claims against the city are becoming clamorous for payment of their bills. It seems there were two candidates from the ward stated—Charles Williams, democrat, and Frederick Ire, republican— both of whom recelved a tle vote, Should Williams un the seat the Board would just have a democratic jority. Yesterday an effort was made to obtain a lamus from the Supreme Court giving Williams Action in the matter was postponed until Meanwhile public affairs are at a ma the seat. the 1ith instant. standstill. ‘Trenton. PROVIDENTIAL Escare.—Yesterday afiernoon an accident occurred in the Sixth ward of this city, on the left bank of the Delaware, which was near re- suiting in the death of four persons, As a party, comprising John Abel, Mrs. D. Clarke, and Mrs, West and her daughter were riding along in the locality mentioned some mischievous miscreant dis- charged arifie. The horses took fright and became quite ungovernable, throwing the occupants on the round and disengaging themseives from the wagon just as the two hind wheels were suspended over the embankment of the river, which at this place has a height of some fifty feet. Had the party remained a minute longer in the vehicle they would have been mangied. They escaped, however, with some bruises and lacerations, which are not serious, Mrs. Clarke was more painfully injured than the others and had to retire to bed. The desperado who fired the gun has not yet been arrested. REVIEW OF THE FOURTH BRIGADE. This brigade, commanded by Brigadier General Aspinwail, composed of the Fourth, Eleventh, Twen- ty-second, Sixty-ninth and Seventy-ninth regiments, ‘was reviewed yesterday afternoon at the Tompkins square parade ground, The regiments were but indifferently represented as to numbers. They looked well and their move- ments exhibited considerable self-possession. The Fourth regiment (zouaves) numbered about 150, the Eleventh 200, the Twenty-second 300, the Sixty-ninth and Seventy-ninth 200 men each. The Fourth was placed on the right of the line, the Seventy-ninth on the left; on its right rested the Sixty-ninth, while on the lett of the Fourth was the Eleventh, The centre was Kaa pe by the Twenty-second. ‘The first grand movement was the massing of the regiments, then wheeling and marching by com- ies’ front, Lg ranks for inspection, followed yy the manual of arms, marching and wheeling by companies, deployment of companies, marching of the brigade, forming into lines of battle, and repeat- ing i reverse order many of the original evolu- The companies of the Fourth did not move with remarkable precision, They appeared careless, and when marching by the comp: front looked ata short distance rather like an undisciplined mob than a body of drilled men.

Its ranks were fuller, and the can of the soldier was observable in all its evolutions, There was an evident desire on the part of the men to appear to the best advantage; and, although the movements of the ranks were not above criticism, making one or two serious blunders, they yet did exceedingly weil. The Sixty-ninth and Seventy-ninth were not as they ought to have been. Regiments which have seen #0 much service are not to be held excusable when they appear on parade with ranks weak in numbers, and the majority of the men, at that, evi- Monae unused to feld movements on an extended scale. Tompkins square is not of sufficient area to meet all the requirements of a brigade such as, wher full the Fourth is, There were not to exceed 1,100 men under arms yesterday afternoon, and yet it was quite apparent that for extended manmuvres the space was too limited. With full regiments it would have been found impossible to move at all. ‘The day was pleasant to the spectators, of whom. there were many; but decidedly too warm for march- jug aud wheeling with extended fronts, CuKIOT: STORY.—A correspondent of the Steaben ou writing trot Havisvilie, N, Y., tives the fol- jovunt A youn Han hecame atinened 00 i youd wid beavisul Cauweel, whe died berore their MARRIAGES AND DEATHS.
