I nn FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. SUNDAY, Nov, 28, 1869. The decline in gold has been the prominent feature of the week in Wall street. The price towards the Cloae on Saturday touched 1233{, which is the lowest since the summer of 1863, when, after the victories of Vicksburg and Gettysburg, it fell temporarily to 122%. The downward tendency, which had been partially interrupted in the beginning of the week by feara of trouble with Spain concerning the fleet of gunboats now building in American waters for thas pation, was most Marked on Saturday, when, upon she publication of the bank statement, it was dis- covered that the banks heid nearly thirty mil- lions in specie. In looking for the cause of this sudden accumulation of coin we shall find that the growing credit of the covernment under the system inaugurated by General Grant, in enfore- ing honesty in the revenue department, ana by Sec- retary Boutwell, in buying in the national debt, was originally the cause of widespread expectation in the mercantile community that gold was destined to lower prices. Hence the imports have been grad- ually falling off. Importers have been afraid to lay in heavy stocks, and have conducted their business, partioularly during the past year, with great con- @ervatism. Gold has thus had double reasons for its decline, It has not been im demand for export and has accumulated in the country. To what extent the decline in gold is going to affect the values of commodities in general is an Open question. It isto be hoped, of course, that there will be a general cheapening of all products; but itremains to be seen, wiicther, with 80 ex- panded a paper cireulation, we can attain to old me prices. Indeed, with specie payments to-mor- Tow we should have a total circulation of a thou- gand millions, while with the premium on gold that total is confined to the eight hundred millions or currency. The fall in preaastuils has been due not fo much to the decline in gold as to the enormous abundance of the crops, and the de- cline im cotton to the prospect ef a yield vhis year twenty per cent larger tian last year, We think the merchants whose business is confined to domestic goods have little cause to fear the effects of the decline in gola, While paper money is so plentiful there can be little shrinkage in the value of the articles which they deal im, Indeed, greenback prices have changed very little for other things than produce and cotton. There ts an inelasticity in greenback values which 1s strikingly in contrast to gold values. Unlesa the volume of the currency is reduced (and it 1s hardiy provaole that Congress will attempt so dangerous a measure) there can be no serious or sudden decline, The paper circulation before the war was less than toree hundred millions, With the wonderful pro- gress which has been made in developing the coun- try since the war is it not reasonable to infer that within a few years we shall grow up to @ condition of business activity that will employ every doilar of paper now in circulation? In tact, the West is now calling for more currency, bat the demand is an un- healthy one, its object being to inflate prices, which have been gradually fulimg as the greenback currency has been growing more, reliable apd tle crops more abundant. As to the Importing interest, the decline in gold will carry tts own remedy. ‘The hesitation and caution of merchants in buylug will lighten the stocks of foreign goods here and so sustam their price by their scarcity. Uniess business affords a Margin of profit larger than the premium on gold there will always be danger of 1oss ia the importing business until there is a resumption of specie pay- ments or a more steady mariet for gold. The money market during the week was easy at five to seven per cent, and some of the government dealers were cffered balances at as low’ as four per cent. The weekly statement of the associated banks of this city is quite favorable, contrary to the general expectation that the shipments of currency to the West and Southwest thus week would be reflected in a heavy loss of reserve. The decrease in legal tenders {s less than three hundred thousand dollars; bat as the banks entered on the week with a balance in their tavor from last week, and as the Sub-Trea- Sury operations during the current week have also been tn their favor, the acthal withdrawal of legal tenders was from two to three miulitons of dollars. However, the specie item is largely increased—by nearly two millions—and as the deposits have been drawn down there is an actual gain in reserve of Over @ million and a half of dollars. The decrease in loans, while small, shows a disposition on the part of the banks to be in readiness should the balance of the grain and cotton movement make a sudden and heavy demand upon their resources, The totals of this week's average compare with the previous statement as follows ¥ Nov, 2' Loans. $252,678,4 Specie 29,687, 8: Circulai 3 83 Deposiis 3,597, 395 Legal vende 45,181,890 The changes are set forth in deiall as folows;— Increase in loans. $389,534 Increase in specie 4,758,825 Degrease in circul: < 76,084 Decrease in deposits. + 186,795 Decrease in legal tenders eee 278,261 The total liabilities are $27,759,233, and the total reserve of specie and legal tenders combined, $77,869,786. The banks, therefore, hold a surplus of $23,451,478 over the amount of reserve required by law—a gain for the week of $1,558,514. It is a curi- ous coincidence that the banks held exactly the @ame amount of reserve in the corresponding week last year, only that their specto was fifteen millions instead of thirty, while holding {ifieen miilions more in legal tenders. The deciine in gold stimulated the buying of ex change, and rates hardened toward the close of the week, When sixty day prime bunkers’ sterling was quoted 1087 a 109 and sight bills 109! a 109%.

Southern securities were dul! and weak in the Tennessees and North Carolinas, the latter being utterly demoralized by the Goveruor’s message and the introduction of repudiatory measures in the State Legislature. The Missouris and South Caro- linas were strong amd the general list steady. The stock market was fairly active in the Western and Vanderbilé shares—the former under the ma- nipulation of clique operations anu the latter through unexplained causes, further than heavy sales from brokers reputed to do business for the magnates of New York Central and Hudson River. The former took @ decided upward turn and the latter the reverse, There was some animation in Erte and an advance of about three per cent when it was known that the stockholders had enjoimed the directors; but the latter having eluded the injunction the stock fel) back again to Its oid price and dulness.

MORS ALLEGED JUDICIAL ABUSES.—A poor Ger- Man laborer, named George Lurich, of 234 Spring- fisid avenue, was before Justice Mills on Saturday afternoon under the following circumstances:— Residing in the same house is a woman, named Elizabeth Katzon, with whom he had some quarrel. She caused his arreston a charge of having com- mitted @ breach of the peace. He was taken before Justice John Courall, of Broome street, who held fim to bail to keep the peace for six months. Lurich was charged twenty-ave cents bail fee, Feeling that he ought to have an examination right away Luvich applied for the same, and was told that it would cost him $3 60. As has gfrequently been demonstrated tue recetpt of such fees is illegal, and it is surprising that the summary justice meted out to a justice Jately by sudge Depue has not entirely put a stop to these criminal practices. Justice Mills had no juris- diction in the matéer and could do nothing. FURTHER EXAMINATION OF HENNING AND BON- HACK, THE ‘QUEER’ MaToH MAkERS.—Before United States Commissioner John Whitehead the ex- amination of Messrs.

A number of witnesses from Paterson were present and testified to having purchased matches from we accused, the boxes of which bore the bogus stamps. The accused admitted through their counsel, Mr. Dickson, of Jersey City, that the stamps used were bogus, but declared that they bought them belleving them to be genuine. ‘They, however, failed to show whence or from whom they had procured them, ‘The government oilicers found from 700 to 1,000 of the bogus stamps in the factory and among we cus- tomers of the firm, Tne accused are sull under $12,500 bail each, * Paterson.

PATERSON EXPRESSMEN AFTER JIM Fisk.—The expressmen of Paterson have been considering the propriety of, and have about decided to, institute a suit against the Erie Railway Company to recover damages incurred from iliegal overcharges. Severai lawyers have been consulled and they, of course, express the opinion that the Erie Railway Company is not only Mable on account of these overcharges, butalsotoa fine of $100 for each offence. it 18 alleged that the recent advance of one dollar per ton On freight between New York and Paterson is legal, and consequeatiy the company is liable to ue penalties attached to each charge under the new taruf. ‘The expressmen invend 1t as a test suit aud the expenses of the case will be paid by sub- scription, Hackensack.

Dexver, Colorado Teritory, Noy. 12, 1869, Denver is advantageously located in a slight ae- pression in the plain, nearly midway between the Territorial boundary lines from east to west, and about one-third of the distance acrors from north to south. The eapital of the Territory, it must be the Metropolis of the future State, Eastward the plaing roll away in successive billows toward the imperial valley of the Continent; westward the mountains riso in majestic elevations to the great divide, whence all unite in the general slope of the Paciflc. The courses of two streams pass through the city Mmits—Cherry creek, whose bed here ts dry, and South Platte river, which has an unfailing low of water. Denver is the central mart for the trade both of the pluins and mountains. Through tt pass up to the mining regions the agricultural productions of the plains, and down through it in return come the precious metals from the mines, And from here necessities of the people fn the rich Arkansas valley, the South Fork mining regions and the valley of the Boulder are supplied, So intimately is the city asso- ciated with the present and prospective develop- ment of the Territory that a rapid glance at the whole seems to be appropriate. The agricultural and pastoral people of Colorado already raise more than suilicient of the staple arti- cles of food to supply the present popniaton, Gold and silver are the chief articles of export; and ma- chinery and miscellaneous manufactures are the principal articles of import from the States. Event ually Colorado must establish and maintain within her borders @ great nunrber and variety of manu- factories and export a large amount of surplus sup- plies to less favored localities. Her principal sources ol wealth and greatness he as yet comparatively undeveloped, ‘The mountatn regions, as well as tho plains, are wonderfuily grassed, Tue roows of the grass sink deep into the ground, and give perpetual life to the blade independent of moisture on the surface, Cat: ue live on it all the year without any other food, Beet is fatver at Christmas than at any other period, Probably uo similar area of wild lands in the world 48 capable of sustaiming more animal lie. It is esil- Mated that Over 8,000,000 head of stock can be sus- tained at once on these profitable pasture lauds. The cate produce the best of beef, the sheep the choicest Iuttou and the finest feece. Beef can be killed and coolea here @ month earlier than tn Kausas or States further to the east; and the inhabitants claim that with the Ccompieion of their raiiroads, now s00R tO be Accomplished, they wiil be able to supply the Chicago market with meat. ‘The soil in the valleys is rich and fertile, similar to that on the bottom lands nearer the Missouri. it is @ light loam, perfectiy porous aud easily worked. ‘The soil on the uplands is similar in character, but warmer, and where Irrigated yields even larger and earlier crops than that of the river bol- toms. Seed is sown in February aud March, and the grain 18 gatuered in August and Septemper. Small grains aud vegetables alford the largest yield, but the nights are too cold for corn, Suill, fair crops of coru are grown. The best vrands of st. Louts four would uot find a ready market here, be- cause the native brands are better, and every oue in Colorado is somewnat of an epicure. The discovered Coallands lie all along the base of the eastern chain of mountains for more than a hundred miles, and from the base of the mountaing eastward for mor? than seventy miles. in some places single veins are eighteen feet, and in others, where several overlap each other, there 1s an aggre- gate of flity fect in thickness. ‘The coal is lignite, semi-Dituminous. it has no destrictive clements, erosive properties or offensive odors, It 1s ciean, burns and blazes like dry hickory wood, leaves little ash and has no kinking qualities. Agassiz und Hay- den, both of whom huve been here, piace it next to the Pennsylvania anthracite for geueral and aomes- fic purposes. And as 10 the extent of the deposits the geologists bewilder one by their calculations und deductions. lron ore ot superior quality lies in close proximity to the coal near che base of the foot-hilis, us well as ao other points among the mountatus, With these two advantages Colorado would seem to bear a sunilar relation to the States aud ‘Lerritories ia the central portion of the Continent that Penosylvania does to her contiguous States near the Atlantic sea- board, ‘the gold and silver mines of Gilpin and Clear Creek countier, where tue richest discovered lodes. are being worked. are only thirty and forty miles re- spectively from these coul and iron beds, to wuich they can have communication through the calons by a contingous downward grade, So strong is ne faith in the inexbausubile resources of tne gold, and especially the silver mines, that there Js some talk of constructing @ rallroad [vom the mintug centres of Giipin and Clear Creek counties to the plans.
