“THE MISSOURI SEBATORIAL ELECTION Frank Blair Probably the Man. Break-Up of the Radical Party in the State— Anti-Administration Republicans Crys tallizing on Democracy. JEFFERSON Crry, Mo., Jan. 11, 1871. The election for United States Senator for Mis- sourl in place of Judge Drake, resigned, will pe virtually decided before this communication can reach you. The nominee of the’democratic caucus, to be held to-morrow night, will be elected by the Legislature, if some combinations now unseen do not turn up to change altogether the present aspect of things, There seems little doubt that F. P, Blair will get the nomination, and if so many of the diberal republicans will vote for him on joint ballot. ‘The radical candidate, Judge David Wagner, about ‘whose legal and judicial qualifications so much has ‘been said, 1s not a favorite with his party. He could mot get a decent vote 1m caucus last night, There may, therefore, be no republican candidate at all, ana if there should be he will receive a divided voto of his party im the Legislature on Wednesday next. The State of Missourl may be fairly said to have gone clean democratic atthe last election, and she ‘wilt undoubtedly cast her voice in the Electoral Col- lege for the Presiaential candlaate of the Democratic Convention in 1872. The very election of her present Governor, B. Gratz Brown, by a majority of over 40,000 proves that the State wag at heart democratic, and had the frauchise been extended to the great body of the people, who had been so long excluded from the ballot box by test oaths and other obstruc- tions on the plea of disloyalty—a worn out plea fow—the State, speaking ont in its natural tone, ‘would have nearly doubled that majority. It is true that Governor Brown was a republican, but he was of the liberal stripe, and the democrats, en masse, voted for him. He belonged to that party of radi- cCals—and they are very large in Missouri to- day—who revolted at the attempt of the President to interfere with the State election. These are the class of men who believe that Missouri can be governed better at home than from Washington. It is well known now ‘that the split in the radical ranks was caused main- ly by the actéon of the administration at the elec- tion and detestation of the Knforcement act. It ‘was thought that the President had strained tne point too far when he attempted to interfere with the independent Missourians, whatever he might do witb the untortunate citizens of New York. They cared very little for the latter, perhaps, but they would not have things in this way. And so Carl Schurz bolted, and Gratz Brown bolted, and hun- dreds o! other leading ‘radicals throughout the State followed, leaving the republfcan party disinte- grated, and for all the purposes of the administra- jon utterly worthless in the future, These men are nearly as good democrats now as Frank Blair him- self, Indeed, the declaration of Governor Brown in his Anaugural address, that ‘We are all republicans; we are all democrats,” almost settled the status of the “diberal republicans,”’ as they are called, not 80 much 8 @ new party as one of which is tired of the dictator- ship of the government at Washington, and has dis- covered that it is not the kind of government de- sirable for the permanent peace and Fros of the country, towards which every State in the Union is now Jooking as part of the inevitable,.and no State more hopefully than Missouri. Besides, the demo- cratic record all over the country 1s bright. The star is high in its zenith of 1872; it is mounting like @ Paris balloon, and if politicians are to waver at ali now is just the time to take somebody by the coat tail who 1s iy Qy into the political empyrean. ose they are shrewd eno! to see that any kind of a live animal is better, with a good kick in him, than the most ic of lions after the spirit of the king of beasts hath departed.

So we must not be surprised to see Governor Brown loom- ing up among the Western men in the Presidential canvass, Toere is but one feeling valling bere upon the Presidential succession, and that 1s that tne next President must be a Western man.

JEFFERSON City, Mo., Jan. 12, 187% APPEARANCE OF GOVERNOR BROWN. B. Gratz Brown, Governor of Missourl, whose mame will be associated in fature with a very mpor- tant change—in fact, a revolution—in tne politics of his State, isa man quite in the vigor of life. One cannot be long in his company without discovering much firmness and resolution of char- acter combined with an activity which is peculiar to men of the complexion and lightly built frame of the Governor. On calling upon him in the Execu- tive chamber to pay my respects he observed that he had been informed of the arrival of a representa- tive of the New YORK HERALD in the city and hoped that he would have the pleasure of an interview, ‘which was accordingly arranged for a time when his official duties affordea some leisure, Tho Governor has just moved from McOarthy’s Hotel to the Executive Mansion, a ghostly concern, of which the State should be ashamed; but it was at the former place, in little room No. 8, that I had & pleasant, frank and free talk with him about Mis- sour! politics, which are“Just now of so much inter- est in Washington and throughout the country. ‘THE GOVERNOR DOES NOT LIKE TO BE INTER- VIEWED, and so stated, with genial earnestness. In other words, he dreaded and objected to being placed in the ridiculous position which so many public men have recently found them- selves, of belhg obliged to disavow so much of what they were represented to have said and never did say. Your correspondent assured his Exceliency that he had no intention of putting him in a ridiculous or fals? position, but as your, correspondent had the high honor to represent on that occasion the greatest newspaper tn the world, the universal gazateer and universal teacher, to whom all the world looked for intelligence—from Japan to Jefferson City—it was desirable that his Excellency’s views upon the state of affairs in Mis- souri and the country generally at this important juncture should be made known through its ‘columns, Struck with the modesty of this remark, the Gov- ernor smiled blandly through his immense red beard, and said, “I will state frankly to you all my opinions upon the new phase of politics in this State, and give you every information you require tor the benefit of the New YoRK HERALD. I will speak freely and openly to you upon all matters; but there is much that I may say which, in my present -critical position, 1t would not be proper to publish to the world just at this time.’? To which I responded—“I understand the delicacy -of the mn Which yon occupy, Governor.

As for the democrats, ¢ 1s their idol—thetr exalted 1dol—for 1t seems that they consider him already in the halls of the Senate, . wiping out, by his fidelity to Missouri, the stains which it 1s ronerally asserted, and not alone by one party, that Ju rake le{$ upon the escutcheon of the State. The General himself appeared at rest as to his peots of a seat in the United States Senate. He had VERY LITTLE TO SAY. Indeed, he baa) ht that there was nothing to be sald about the el lon; but on my remari upon the curtous new position which: Missouri had as- sumed, and tts PG results in the Presidential canvass, he said that Missouri would be the crown- ing State in that canvass. “If we only had a fair representation at the we would Dave doubled our majority at the election.

Yes, by o long sight.” Touching the. ad- ministration of General Grant, against which I might say all Missouri, outside the carpet-! ly appears to be in rebellion, the General was out- spoken, He said:—“They were shocked at me some time ago when I said that Grant was nothing but @ goldier; that his in- stincts, his education and everytt about him were those only of a soldier; and that he knew no weapon of power but the bayonet, and that ho would not scruple to keep bayonet. They were shocked at this. hey omens I was harsh and ili-judging. But you see what come to pass since. The man who used the bayonet in Alabama would use it in New York, and if he had exercised the power vested in him to the full extent at the last election he would have had New York to-day, both city and State, in a worse condition than they were under the radical majority.” With regard to the next CANDIDATE FOR THE PRESIDENCY Genera!

If any man cen this in Jefferson City just now, I can only say that hig stomach must be constituted like that epicurean but not very sensible animal who finds his choicest morsel in a thistle.

The Suspected Murdorer a Guest of Uticans. {From the Utica Observer, Jan. 12.) * HE 18 HONORABLY ACQUITTED, The daring express and attempt to murder vhe messenger Halpine, at albany, last Friday night, continues to excite considerable interest. No clue to the perpetrator of the deed has yet been found. Qn Tuesday morning Oonstable Gifford, of Syra- oe brought to Albany a gentleman named Arthur x. |, an insurance age t, doing business at Fulton, Oswego county, N. Y., whom he had arrested in Syracuse, the previous day, en suspicion of being the robber and attempted murderer. Gifford had a civil process against Breed, which was promply paid on presentation. In Hebb. the constable and on other occasions Breed dispiayed considerable money and @ revolver, which he did not see fit to account for to the constable. On being confronted with the person who gold the revolver to the supposed mur- derer on the night of the murder, he was most em- phatically declared not to be the purchaser. Breed expressed an entire willfugness to remain in cus- vody, and evinced considerable anxiety wo meet the man whose assassinaiiow he was charged with at- tempting. On Tuesdayafternoon with the detectives he visited the hospital where Halpine is lying ina dangerous condition, but the physivians refused to allow the patient to be disturbed. On Tuesday even- ing a despatch was received in Albany stating that Breed was in New York Friday night, and he was immediately discharged on nis own recognizance to appear yesterday mornitig, On appearing yeaterday morning he was honorably discharged, and passed through this city yesterday afternoon on his way home. The Albany papers Say Breed is quite the opposite in personal appearance of the man who committed the terrible assault and cannot conjecture why he was arrested, except on account of his hav- ing & large sum of money with him. The constable, Gifford, who made this foolish arrest, came near etting “a head put on him’? for intimating that the lbany police force were unduly interested in his release. Mr. Breed came to Utica on Saturday evening, with letters of introduction from respectayle parties in Fulton to prominent young men in Utica, was registered at Bagg’s Hotel, anddmed on Sunday with his friends at the Butterfield Heuse. His friends here laugh at the idea of his being sted for mur- der. Waile with them he informed them that he had been to New York to obtain money, and told them of the robbery at Albany, which he had heard of as he passed through that city. In returning to Albany he paid his own and the censtable’s fare, entertained him at the Delavan, and showed the most entire willingness to have the matter mvestigated. Having been honorably acquitted at Albany he re- turns to Syracuse to settle the little aif air of his un- just arrest by Constable Gifford, THE BINGHANTON VAMPIRE. Barther Accounts of Ruloffs Atrocities. ‘From the Troy Datly Times, Jan. 14. In tule connection 16 yee er J per. to add a fact in Rulofi’s history that has evidently been overlooked. Soon after his marrage, and while he was living With the family of his father-in-law, Mr. Schutt, m1 Drvden, he was employed as physician to attend his wife's brother and that ‘er’s child in sickness. These both died suddenly while under his care, Nothing was thought of it, however, until after the foe ae of lus wife, when it was remembered that he had shown much ill feeling to this brother- in-law because the latter had opposed his marriage. An@ though there was no means of proving this first double crime, which was soon succeeded by. an- other of more fiendish atrocity, yet ‘there is scarcely a citizen of Dryaen who does hot believe to this day that young Schutt and ois little child died trom poigon at the hands of Ruloif. How many others have fallen by his murderous hand will probably never te known, for he is not a man to whom the can present sufficient terrors to force him confession. ‘The man who innocently helped Ruloff hft the box con- taining the dead bodies of his wife and child into the wagon after the murder was Thomas Robertson, @ sheriff of Tompking county over forty and brother of Smith Robertson, the i rotected Ruloff from. a mob that ‘ered his w! chil street from his residence.

The Uptown Rapid Transit Prob- lem-Again. Mayor Hall on the Situation—A Few Random Suggestions—The Annexation Matter—Move- ments in the Market—Its Tone and Ten- déncy—Long Island Real Estate~The ‘Beal Estate Trust Company. THE MARKET AS IT IS, ‘While there are certainly encouraging signs of re- @wakening activity in the real estate market, the dealings thus far this year exhibit a Much duller feeling than was anticipated. This 1s not remarkable, however, and 1s in reality strictly conformable to the experi- ence of former years, It is yet too early for the open- ing of what may be termed tho season of real estate operations, which cannot be said to be fairly inau- gurated until the 1stof February. Those famthar with the market are fully aware of this and are une disturbed by the existing dainess, others who seek to found theories therefrom, lacking the proper knowledge to guide them to a correct judgment, It is singular to note how similar has been the experi- ence inthe stock market this year. There very many who had beon embarrassed by the stringenoy in the money market, aggravated by abnormal agencies which prevailed at the close of the year, dis- counted an immediate relaxation following the new year, and with their disappointment lost confidence. Older and wiser heads, bearing in mind previous miscalculations of a similar kind in their earlier ex- perience, placed the period of relief much later, and, with a fereknowledge of what was to be expected, governed themselves accordingly. The former class furnished the failures of last week, who were all “ahort;” the latter reaped the profits. AN INSTRUCTIVE PARALLEL, There is another lesson to be learned from the de- velopments of last week on th@ New York Stock Ex- change of interest to real estate dealers. The same journal which is known among the latter as a chronic and constitutional bear in real estate has for some time past been the bitter and un- compromising assailant of all stock values. In carrying out this programme it has reck- lessly and unscrupulously, and. eften untruth. fully attacked all commercial ana financial credit, and, in noticing such actual suspen- sions as did occur, magnified them and their pos- sible effect without the slightest reserve. This course it has pursued, even in the face of events, on the Stock Exchange every day, which gave the lie to its comments and predictions, It was its teachings: which induced the parties whose failure is above’ re- ferred to to sell stocks at a time when they were advancing. The real estate owner or dealer can judge for himself how safe a guide such a Journal is, and how reliable are its views of the real estate market. Of about equal value to the statements of this great bear organ are the remarks to be heard in other quarters that, in order to excite activity in the real estate market, property must be “marked down.” This is simply nonsense. Who ever heacd of marking down stocks? Their value 1s determined by the demand for them in the open market (which 1g regulated in most cases by the varying value, pre- sent or prospective, of the preperty they represent) and the disposition of the holders to sell, or their ne- cessities, metimes they get frightened and throw them away, but thatis not the rule. Real property in New York 3 subject to much the same conditions. It ts stock in the great metropolis, and its value is affected by the conditions whica operate toimprove or diminish the prosperity of the city. ‘Thus far its tendency has been always to imcreased. valuation, with, of course, intervals of temporar: depression. It has never been “marked down,” ai-‘ though in times of thrown away by weak or frightened holders, but it always reacted in time to a higher figure. This is not sueh a time, however. On the contrary, it is one of remarkable prosperity. Money is in abundant supply at this centre, and from the long interval of inactivity which. bas pre- vailed the coming season gives encouraging promise of considerable animation. The real estate of New York has been likened to the capital stock of a great corporation, but, unlike such stock, the shares are not all ef equal value; besides the common aud pre- ferred there are a namberless variety of differences in theirretative standing. The manner in which LOCAL INFLUENCES AFFECT REAL ESTATE and the share which the immediate surroundings and hear and remote improvements have in fixing and determining its value render it extremely dit- ficult to apply any general descriptive terms to 113 condition in the market which will embrace the whole city. Hencethey who find it to their interest to write down property have littie difficuity im find- ing instances of depreciation, some of them no doubt very considerable, but the fact remains the same, nevertheless, that every year the entire realty of Manhattan Isiand increases in value. The cir- cumstance that for the past year the sales of real estate have fallen off so considerably proves the confidence of holders. There are always men ready to buy when they see a thing offerea velow its real value, but in the real estate market there has been no pressure to sell, and hence prices have been maintained. The two influences most likely to operate in producing activity in the real estate- market this season and stimulating transactions are the manner in which THE PROBLEM OF RAPID TRANSIT up town may be solved oy, ine present, Legislature and the annexation of Westchester county. Both of these have been referred to at length here; but the opinions only of third parties or the geueral views of a class have been given. To the former, upon the first mentioned proposition, Mayor Hatl has added a valuable contribution. It does not deem irom what he says that we are much nearer rapid transit than we were five years ago. The. Mayor, of course, speaks only as an individual; but what he says about the arcade and under- round railroad we already know to be true. lia objection to that which he _ speaks of as “what of late seems to be the most feasible one—an elevated road running through blocks—is terse and too true to be overlooked.” He says:—‘The project amounts to almost a total con- fiscation of property near the blocks, and if the nage were correctly estimated by commissioners perhaps the expense would be found to be enormous and unparalleled in the history of enterprises.” And this is the scheme to which Governor Hof- man has already committed himself. If the head of the State and the “Boss” jointly can only furnish this plan our uptown real estate owners are likely vo wait for some time for their rallroad. Objections may be made to Mayor Hall’s remarks, that while fertile in finding fault with the proposed plams, ne furnishes nothing in the way of a sub: stitute. There are, however, very many shrewd men who hold this problem as one incapable of solution under existing circum- stances. They hold, in tne first Place, that all ideas. of an underground or elevated road involve toe much cost where o proper construction is guaranteed to be ever remunerative. Either would have to depena almost entirely upon through travel, say to Yorkville, at all events, which would not be enough to make them pay. This much-desired speed in locomotion must obtained on the surface. It must likewise be cheap and capable of being soon, applied, utilizing as far as possible tracks now laid down. Thus the Hudson River road, on the west side, and the Harlem or New Haven, on the east side, might be compelled to lena their tracks to a metropolitan ralitway for the Danyernnee of passengers a certain distance to West- chester county. It does seem as though the dummy engine would have to be finally admitted to our streets to meet this need. It is to be doubted if the present Legislature will give us as ready relief. It 1s strange what a fear people have of steam in this nineteenth century, THE ANNEXATION OF WESTCHESTER ig said to be less of a foregone conclusion than it was thought to be at the start, The Temes sai time ago that the ‘Boss’ Was .opposed te it, which does not seem likely, now Mayor Hall says he is Op; to it, asare the lead authorities and all of the present régime. means anything it means that Tammany ts op- sed to annexat and as Tammany owns the lature, it will defeat the bill. There is some likeiinood in this, scheme was Ig brought forwatd by a republican. Should bill in the end pass we can only suppose Mayor Hall has been deceived. 4 There ig not likely to be much movement in up- town real estate pending some decided action upon. these two measures, LONG ISLAND REAL ESTATE is beginning to exhibit unmistakable signs of an active speculative movement this spring along the south side, in the neighborhood of Flushing, and extending to Islip Hempstead. The improye- ments made at the latter place by Mr. Stewart and his announced intention o1 estabiis! Tapia com- munication with this city have stimulated a buying movement on that side of the island designed to bring upon the market cheap lots. it is eer yet to form an opinion as to what the result of si Bpeculation may. be. The oversold state of the mar- ket in New Jersey in this same direction forbids any very sanguine expection, Much will cepent, how- ever, upon the particuiar merit of the lots offered for sale, and as they can be sold very cheap the in- ducements to investment May prove too many to be resisted, THE ADVERTISED SALES : do not show any prospect of immediate animation, which, however, is never lookea | for those most familiar with the market before the lst of February.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERUIAL, WALL STREET, } Sonpay, Jan. 15, 1871, THE GENERAL TRADE OF THE CITY Quring the past week was, considering the season, Targe and fairly active. Business men anticipated an almost stagnant market after the holidays, especially a8 80 much had been sald about retrench- ment and economy and the necessity of préparing for lower prices, The fact ts the population of the country is increasing so fast and the new enter prises and occupations of the people are so numerous that it seems impossible that business can stand still or be checked by a fear of a decline in prices. The immediate ‘wants of so vasta country force a constant con- sumption of goods, without regard to the future of prices, and hence'the channels of trade are never idle. The wholesale dry goods merchants expe- Fenced this fact in a steady demand from thetr cus- tomers, not for heavy or important lots, it 1s true, but for an amount sufictent in the aggregate to be called good. The exporters were favored by freer orders from Europe and a reduction im freights, which led to the shipment of heavy consignments of cotton, wheat and provisions. ‘The question of peace or war in Europe, while just as far from settlement as earlier in the winter, en- ‘tera into the matter of exports in a curious way. ‘The war so far has drained the produce markets of Europe, and hence we find an active inquiry for our breadstuifs. On whe other hand, the approaching London Conference seems to stimulate the cotton manufacturing interest in England, and cotton ts in better demand. Thus the two markets which usea tofuctuate in opposite directions—the one going down as the other went up, ana vice versa—are now working together in harmonious strength. THE MONEY MARKET. The stringency in money incidental to the close of the year when accounts are ‘closed, books settled and dividends prepared has given place to an easier state of the market, and, during the week, while six to seven per cont were the prevailing paves on call some balances were left with the gov- ernment dealers at as low as five per cent. On Saturday there was more activity, and six per cent was the lowest rate, but the interruption to the declining tendency of rates waa attributed to the speculative manipulation of operators at the Stock Exchange desirous of buying stocks at lower Prices. Last month such @ stratagem had the as- sistance of the natural activity arising from causes above enumerated; but it remains to be seen whe- ther the attempt, if persisted In, can succeed in face of the continued flow of money to.the city at this season. One of the best signs of the times is the better inquiry fer commercial paper, which is quite readily taken at 73, a 8 per cent for prime names, | THB BANK STATEMENT. The weekly statement of the associated banks is again favorable, but while the items of specie and legal tenders show further’ large increase—over $4,000,000—the gain in surplus reserve is only $1,335,000, for the reason that the immense deposits of the week, amounting to over $11,000,000, have been composed in great part of national bank notes, which swell the liabilities but add nothing to the re- serve. Still the addition is enough to give the banks large capacity for expanding their accommodation to borrowers, and we find, accordingly, a liberal in- crease in the item of loans. The amount now held by the banks in excess of the reserve required by law is $18,202,921. The statement contrasts with ita Predecessor as follows :— Jan, 14. $269,211,022 28,990,404 82,049, 805 218,408, 774 50,675,911 each item are @ detail as fol- Increase in 8) Decrease in circulation Increase tn depesits, , Increase in legal tenders THE GOLD MARKET. Some effort was made to start an upward move- ment in gold, but it failed to enlist outside sympathy and served only to let the merchants fill a good many orders for exportable articles, Nor, on the other hand, was any important bearish feeling elicited, and the market closed in @ neutral condi- tion. The extreme fluctuations daily in the price of gold during the week were as. follows:— Lowest. 11094 110% 1los AT THE STOCK EXCHANGE.
