A Strong Movement in Stocks and Fur- ther Advance in Prices. A SHARP RISE IN GOVERNMENT BONDS, fe ISS EM A Nii The Philadelphia Convention as an Influ- ence Upon the Markets, ©. WALL STREET, } Monpay, June 3—6 P. M. On ’Change to-day flour continued weak, and the market closed heavy. Wheat was dull and lower. Cotton was excited, and prices advanced to the basis of 26 cents for low middlings. A FLURRY IN MONEY. ‘The money market was easy and steady at 5 per cent until the vicinity of half-past two o’clock, when the rate was bid up to 6 per cent, and as high 2s7per cent paid for some small amounts. The Inquiry at the advance was only temporary, Tenders appearing in great numpers to take advantage of the higher rate, and before the close of banking hours the market settled back to5a6 percent. The activity, if such it may be called, had this consistency, that the gov- ernment dealers were unable todo better than 5 per cent in procuring loans. The movement was immediately changed to the clique operating for lower prices on the Stock Exchange—an allegation which its rapid subsidence partially confirmed. On ‘the other hand, good parties believe that with the present ruling quotations for stocks, as compared with those of the winter, the money market is Teally hide-bound, and will so develop when called upon to meet the demand in connection with the Wool clip and the transfer of money to the popu- Jous caravanscries at the watering places, Mercan- tile paper is quoted about 7 per cent for actual busi- ness in prime names, ADVANCE IN FOREIGN EXCHANGE. The leading bankers all advanced their rates for sixty-day sterling, for which they now ask 10974. This conclusion seems to have been derived from a contemplation of the continued heavy import movement as revealed in the Custom House figures of Saturday, and the scarcity of bills drawn against exports of merchandise, leaving remitters to look to the bankers for exchange. The sight rate is 11054, being only % per cent in advance of the sixty- day rate since the reduction of the Bank of England discount rate to 4 per cent. THE TREASURY PROGRAMME FOR JUNE. The Treasury programme for the month of June, asnarrated briefly in the Washington press des- patches of the morning, were amplified into the following indice at the Sub-Treasury :— Purchases of Bonds.

Total. concurrent news from the Cotton Board ofthe sharp rise in cotton, which staple already higher than in London, is therefore still less likely to be an export- able article pending the present inequality of the two markets, gave a sudden impetus to the specula- tion in the Gold Room, where the clique were man- @uvring to offset the effect of the more buoyant temper of the Stock Exchange. The traces of the operations of this party ‘were quite perceptible in the several departments of Wall street. Indeed, it is quite likely that they have even been helping the rise in government bonds through a very shrewd calculation that with this source of exchange cut off the balance of trade must be settled with free shipments of specie. At this season of the year, when government bonds are so largely held by capitalists and corporations in tiding over the low interest rates of the summer for call joans, the supply on the street is always small and can be readily controlled, A litle leverage, therefore, in the govern- ment board, does: a great deal in helping gold. If, as may chance, the New York market is advanced above London, the reimporta- tion of bonds simply assists their plans, because it takes away so much gold from this side to bring the bonds over. After the market had advanced from 114% to 114% weakness set in, and a decline to 1141; succeeded rumors that the Supplemental Treaty was “all right,” having been finally accepted by the British Cabinet.

STOCKS QUIET, HIGHER AND STRONG. The stock market was quiet and dull, so far as the character of the day’s business is concerned, but decidedly strong, and prices underwent an im- provement, ranging variously from % to % per cent. The operators credited with initiating the present rise in prices are the solid, wealthy gen- tlemen, designated “generically” as the Vanderbilt party, and include the numerous scions of the Com- modore and their friends and adherents. operators are among the shrewdest and most expe- rienced of the street. They have been dormant for quite a while, but seem now to be moving in view of recent developments in the political campaign, especially those which point to the renomination of Grant and Colfax at Philadelphia and the prolon- gation tor another four years of the debt-reducing, gold-selling policy of the present administration. With the government reducing the debt at the rate of a hundred millions a year it is easy to see that a hundred millions annually is taken investment in government bonds and turned loose to seek fresh investment, nishing a steady which Wall fostered. While the money of the country (paper) isnow Milly what it was in amount three years ago, the administration of General Grant has contracted government bonds to the extent of three hundred millions. His renomination (and re-election) weuld | therefore be equivalent to the introduction of about five hundred millions more of capital into the chan- nels of the money market during the interval hence to the close of his second term. movement is begun, it is true, when the tide on the Stock Exchange is already very high and likely in the ordinary way to recede and leave new enterprises stranded for an indefinite time, but the Vanderbilt specialties are undoubtedly below the parallel of the numerous “fancy” stocks so highly inflated, and therefore offer the temptation for Next to the Vanderbilt stocks the fa- vorites of Mr. Drew were exceedingly strong, Quick- silver touching 38 and the preferred 48, Wabash 763 and Northwestern 753; New Jersey Central sold at 110% and Lackawanna at 108, The principal rise was in Erie, which advanced to 6634 in sympathy with a sudden improvement in London. was exceptionally weak and dropped off to 1204.

A Few Errors in the Report of the Commissioners of Estimate and Assessment To Be Corrected— Otherwise the Report is Confirmed—De- cision of Judge Gilbert and His Opinion in the Case. At length a finality has been reached in the mat- ter of the report of the last Commissioners of Esti- Mate and Assessment relative to the widening of Broadway from Thirty-fourth to Fifty-ninth street. The facts of the case have been too frequently pub- lished to require repetition. Judge Gilbert, of the Supreme Court, before whom the motion for the confirmation of the report was argued yesterday, rendered his decision. It will be seen that he fully exonerates the Commissioners from the charges Preferred against them, and except a few errors, which he directs to be corrected, confirms the re- Port. The following is Noel atta pret ald St othing appears inthe papers before me warrantin the inference that the Commissioners have been iti. enced in. making their determinations by any unworthy motive, or that, excepting some omissions, which will be mentioned presently, they have committed any error of which the Court can’ take cognizance. It was indeed stated by the counsel for some of the objectors that one of the Commissioners owned some lots which were within the former district of assessment, bat are not within the present one, is not, however, any evidence of this fact, or any circiimsiance ‘indicating that if it exists,’ it had any influence on the action of elther Commissioner. The presumption of law in tavor of the fdelt'y ofall public oflcers, therefore, must De ap- plied in this’ case, Upon such facts the rule of law is Urmily established that the determination of matters of tact by the Commissioners is final and conclusive, and not in anywise the subject of judicial review. It is only where the proceedings show that they acted upon some erroneous principle or rule of valuation, or violate some legal right, that the Court can interfere with their de- cision. Neither of these facts has been shown. Disparity in valuation no doubt appears, but such disparity does not prove error. They Who allege error, must give evidence showing ‘not merely at inequality of valu- ation exists, or that their property is of equal Value with that allowed in particular cases to others, but that in oint of fact itexceeds the valuation awarded to them. For otherwise, an error in making an excessive valuation ofone man’s ‘property would enable every owner of property taken to derive a benefit trom such error. The Tule stated governs both the assessment for benefits and the award for damages. With respect to the assessment for benefit, it has been urged that the Commissioners erred, in. éstablishing the district of assessment. — It is said that much the property in the district will derive no benefitirom, but will be injured by the pro- posed improvement, and that most of the property most irectly and certafily benefited by the fmprovement has Not been assessed at all. The answer to this objection has already been made—namely, that it is a subject which the law commits solely to the judgment of the Commissioners. The Court is not authorized to assume that the statement is true in point of tact, or to overrule their determination honestly made, Itis also insisted that the order under which the Commissioners acted did not empower them to make a new district of agsessment, but that they were restricted within the limitations on this subject contained Jn the act of May 17, 1809. I am of a contrary opinion. The order required them to “make a new assessment ii whole, both as to awards for damage and assessinent for benefit.” ‘The order does not, and could not Properly, contain any restriction upon the discretion of the Commissioners in periorming the duty thus devolved upon them. For by the act of February 27, Is7l, power was expressly given to the Court or Justice to direct a new assessment in whole or in part, and to the Commissioners to “assess any and all property which they deemed benefited by the improve- ment,” and the limitation contained in the act of 1809 was explicitly abrogated. ‘The order having directed a new assessmént in whole, the Commissioners had the righ’ and it was their duty to exercise the discretion conferre upon thei by the statute, by ‘assessing such property as they deemed benefitted, and by apportioning the burden according to their estimate of the benefit which each parcel would receive. This they have done, and, as Already stated, no legal error in. thelr proceedings ‘has been shown. ‘The addition of $300,0W) to the assessment against the Mayor, Aldermen and ‘Commonalty of New ork; even if irregular, forms no ground of complaint by individual pexpayers ds_N. Y. R., 165). Moreover, they were benefitted by it. No objection has been presented on behalf of the Uorporation, It was also objected that theso proceedings are illegal for several reasons. It may be doubted whether some of this class of bl ggoke can be properly presented for adjudication in this mode. Em. bury vs. Conner, 3 Coms. 523) But, counsel having argued them, I will dispose of them as wellas I can, First, it ‘was insisted that the fourteenth amendment of the con- tution of the United States had been violated, tor the reason that the State had by that amendment been de- prived of the power of taking the property of its citizens without due process of law, which, it was claimed, meant by the ordinary forms of judicial action. ‘Tam of opinion that this objection is not tenable. 8 Wy whatever the fundamental law of a State has ¢: lished as a rule for the protection of private rights, appl. cable alike to all itscitizens, is due process of law. (Gregg vs. Westervelt, 12 N. ¥. R209, Bank of Colum- bia va Oakley, 4 Wheat, "235)' The same pro- vision on this mablect was embodied in the constitution of the United States, before the adoption of the fourteenth alnendment, and was also contained in the constitutions of this State of 1822 and 1846. Under these provisions it has been uniformly held that the authority exercised by the Legislature in this case was valid. These adjudications on the question, for the reason that this pro- ceeding, if inhibited by the fourteenth amendment, was equally a violation of similar prior provisions of the con stitution of the United States and of this State, and such decisions show that to be an erroneous conclusion. ‘Second—It was urged that the appointment of Mr. Wood as Commissioner was invalid, because it was made with- out notice. He was appointed upon the happening of a ‘vacancy, occasioned by the resignation of a commissioner previously appointed. I think in such a case the Court y, of its own motion, fill the vacancy, and that uo Notice is necessary. Neither the act of 1814 dr the amend- atory act of 1839 ‘takes any specific provision for such a notice, nor does it seem to be hecessary to protect any right involved in the proceeding, The selection of the Com missioners rests exclusively with the Court, and no one is entitled to produce evidence or to do any act for the purpose of affecting such selection. It is ‘not per- ceived, therefore, that a notice Would serve any purpose except to delay the procesdin Third—It appears that the report before me is signed by only two of the Commissioners, and that the other Com- missioner dissents from it altogether. It is insisted that the constitution of this State requires the concurrence of all the Commissioners. In a case before this Court, at General Term, in the First district (in the matter of ‘the extension of Church street, 49 Barb., 456), this precise question was decided, in'June, 1867. It was then heit that such concurrence was not _ neces- sary. If Tentertained any doubt on this subject I should feel bound by that adjudication. But I quite agree with the reasoning upon which it was made. It is an un- doubied rule of the common law that when a power is to be exercised by severxl persons, a majority, upon a meet- ing of all, are competent to do the act. This rule was de- clared in'the Revised Statutes @ R, B., 556, 1@c. 27), and igstill in force. Although the ain e tion is that the compensation “shall be ascertained by not Jess than three commissioners,” yet there is nothing to in- dicate a tg iel bd change the mode of proceeding govern- ing such lies prescribed by the common law and the statute. On the contrary, we are bound to presume that if such intention had exisied it would have been expressed in terms, and this presumption is fortified by the provision contained in section 17 of article 1 of the constitution whereby certain parts of the common law and the st utes in force in this State not repugnantto the constitu- tion were continued in force. There 1s no repugnancy between the familiar and necessary rule referred and the constitution ; for itis clear that all the Commissioners aid in performing the duty assigned to the: hether their action produces unanimity or not, and whatever they do forms an element of the ultimate decision. Not being re- pugnant, the old rule mentioned, therefore, has been pre- served. ‘It abundantly appears that the dissenting Com- missioner met with his colleagues in the legal sense of that term, “No formaltty beyond actual consultation is requisite, He attended the meeting of — the Commissioners r several months, and put in ating, feport | at the proceeding. This is quite sufficient. The point here presented was not decided in the case of the Board of Water Commissioners vs. Lansing, 45 N. Y.,19, In fact the precise question was not involved in the case, for the reason that the statute upon which that case arose wi passed after the adoption of the constitution, and wi hot, therefore, affected by section 17 of article 1 of thi instrument. it may be added that the constitution here invoked has no application ot the Commissioners in fixing a district of assessme in apportioning the amount assewed. | That of the power of taxation, and not of the right domain, and the statute (act of 1813, section ing two Commissioners to perform the trusts and duties imposed on all, yen branch % rae (People Mayor, &e.. 4 Ui 40N.
