Arrived at Rockaway Beach, which extends for miles, and the excursionists all goashore and spend an hour at the Sea View House, where they fill themselves with lager beer, Dena punches or call for roast clams, which are cooked in the open air, and are quite a relish after the sail. Afteran hour's strollon the beach every one returns to the Nelly White, whose courteous captain steams homeward slowly to the city, his boat jammed with passen- ers, There is no incident worth mentioning but ne ine between the gamblers and thieves on the at. : SUNDAY AT THE PARK. The moving panorama of the Park presented more than its usual kaloidoscopic effects yesterday afternoon and evening. A day so comparatively cool after the intense heat from which the people have suffered was sure to witness the appearance thousands in the city’s pleasure grounds, At \ nday every shady seat was occupied, and an ap- ) ently unending concourse was seen wending its » y through leafy avenues and past sunny, open places. Women ordinatre and beautiful women, old men and young men, great men and little men, were there, with children ad infinitum, Old bachelors came fumbling their watchguards, and young fops meandered about sucking their caneheads and try- ing, with one eye screened by a Brazilian pebble, to stare less presumptuous people out of countenance. Every nurse in the vicinity mado an excuse of atring baby to trundic 4t around and meet her sweetheart, who generally was a policeman off duty. When seve- ral nurses met one policeman there was a scene ‘that no one with ears, no matter how small, would dare remain to describe. Then there were pathetic features. Here and ‘there in shady nooks an invalid woman or child had been wheeled in a perambulator of greater or lesser dimensions to catch a breath of fresh air and listen to the songs of the innumerable birds filling tho air with their clear, sweet music. Such incidents were more fre- ‘quently noted towards evening, and as twilight fell sad, wan faces looked out from leafy back- rounds upon the rosy sunset with a wistful, earning desire for life and strength, untranslata- le, but visible in every line and lineament. f = THE ANIMALS, 3 A scorn je great Musoum of Natural History a a¢ curious bipeds bent upon seeing “—= the opposite side of the gratings.

A Listless Market at the Stock Exchange. The Reason of the Prevailing Dulness, THE ERIE RAILWAY ELECTION. Gold and the Secret of Its Re- cent Weakness. SATURDAY’S BANK STATEMENT. A Strong Showing in Reserve, but a Heavy Expansion in Loans, THE NEW PRODUCE BANK. WALL Street, Sunpay, July 7, 1872, ‘The week was a broken one in trade and in finance, the interposition of the Fourth of July holiday and the general disinclination to exertion in the heated term operating to make dull markets everywhere, save in the specialty of FIREWORKS, which occupied the attention of pretty much every citizen of every age throughout the city and suburbs. Before and after the Fourth, during tne whole week, a steady stream of non-professional financiers flowed into and out of Wall street in quest of the cash tor their coupons or the money awarded them in the shape of dividends and interest. A lower ruling of the cotton market and an unsettled and weak tone in wheat and flour sum up the features of trade for the week. THE NEW TARIFF Js operative as yet only so far as tea and coffee are concerned, and in these domestic articles the re- moval of the impost had been discounted. With the abolition of the custom duties the merchants abroaé in the countries of production will doubt- less advance their prices, so that the consumer here may reap little advantage after all from the change, while the government loses the revenue. The new system should be given A FAIR TRIAL, : however, before complaint is made. In all these matters our people are novices, for the reason that we have never before had to raise a great revenue. Should the removal of the duty on tea and coffee serve simply to transfer the money of the tax from the government treasury to the pockets of the growers of and foreign dealers in them, it would be & great legislative blunder. These remarks area reflection of THE SENTIMENTS of our merchants here, and indicate, perhaps, a too strong degree of opinion, the truth being that in the end the consumers here wiil get their tea and coffee at cheaper rates, put not at a discount equal to the amount that had been levied for duty, the balance going to the profit of the foreign merchant, the wholo process being a compromise of the new conditions of the business and an Adjustment of values upon the level of this compromise. STOCKS offered little in the way of interest, much less im- portance, if we except & generally frmer tone and more cheerful feeling on the part of those who look for higher prices, to whose view, since the settle- ment of the indirect claims question in the progress of the Washington Treaty adjustment of the matters in dispute between England and America, the at- mosphere of Wall street has been unusually ROSEATE, exciting anticipations of a brilliant future for their several speculations. These parties are still the “4nconsiderable many” that make the rank and file of the speculative host who by themselves seldom exert a decisive influence either way upon prices, but, under leadership of the professionals, swell the din and lengthen the sales list of the Stock Ex- change. TNE PROFESSIONALS, however, are away in the country, at the senside and in Europe, and the market feels their absence, The approacn ofthe time for the election in Eric has exerted a benefictal effect upon that stock which, after a decline that seemed about to end in the figures current before the coup d'état of last winter rallied by Saturday to 59%, in sympathy with the London market, and not as a consequence of any new developments on this side, GOLD led off with arise to 114, on the reduced amount to be gold by the government during the month of July, but gradually fell of to 118% on the disbursement of the July interest and in consequence of an apprehension that the Secretary of the Treasury would be compelled to issue a “call” for the redemption of ten or twenty millions more of the five-twentics, Money was as nearly as could be 4 per cent on call, with pledge of the usual collaterals of the street. GOVERNMENT BONDS. The government bond market was strong and prices (in gold) reached the highest ever recorded It was thought that the European demand had ceased, buf a premium of 14 a2 percent on the ‘67's in London would indicate that the foreign market is not by any means giutted. The real reason for the diminished exports of government securities is their scarcity in the home market and the refusal of domestic holders to sell at current quotations. There are MILLIONS AND MILLIONS of money held by trust companies and like fidu- clary corporations in this city and throughout the country which can be loaned upon and invested in government securities only, and the demand thus created, in addition to that from the national banks, has largely absorbed all that remain at home. On Saturday the market closed firm as fol- lows:—United States currency sixes, 114% a 11: do, do,, 1881, registered, 115% a 115%; do. do., coupon, 117% a 11755; do. flve-twenties, registered, May and November, 114% a@ 114%; do, do., 1862, coupon, do,, 114% & 11475; do. do,, 1864, do. do., 14% & 114%; do. do., 1865, do. do., 11534 a 115% 3 do. do., 1867, registered, January and July, 114% @ 11444; do. do., 1865, Coupon, do., 113% a 114; do, do., 1867, do. do., 116% a 115%; do, do., 1868, do. do., 115 2 115%; do. ten-forties, registered, 11144 A 111%; do. do,, coupon, 112% a 112%; do. fives of 1881, registered, 113% a 113%; do, do, do., coupon, 113% a 118%. SOUTHERN SECURITIES, The Southern State bonds were like the market— generally dull and irregular. The Tennessees be- trayed some weakness carly in the week, but rallied and closed strong. The new South Carolinas were heavy and gradually declined, the passage of July 1 without any effort at interest payment having very naturally discouraged holders, who had looked for @ possible resumption. North Carolinas yielded one per cent or so on the publication of some gloomy articles in the State press arguing the in- ability of the State to pay the interest on the debt, much less provide for a REDEMPTION of the principal, The following were the closing quotations Saturday :—Tennessee, CX coupon, 744 | @ 75; do, new, 74% a 75; Virwinia, eX Coupon, 42 & 50} do., registered stock, old, 870 42; do. sixes, consolidated bonds, 51 @ 68; do. sixes, deferred sorip, 16 a 17; Georgia sixes, 72875; do. sevens, 86 North Garolina, ex coupon, 835 @ 84; do, to North Carolina Railroad, 40 a 45; do. funding, 1866, 26 @ 28; do, do, 1868, 23 & 25; do. new, 22 a 24; do. special tax, 15 a 16;, Missouri sixes, 043; 295; do., Hannibal and St. Joseph, 91 a 91%; Louisiana sixes, 50 @ 66; do., new, 60 @ 63; do., levee sixes, 56 @ 60; do. do. eights, 75a 80; do. do. cights, 1875, 80 a 85; Alabama fives, 60a 64; do. eights, 85 a 87; South Carolina sixes, 54 a 55; do,, new, January and July, 28 a 2844; do. do,, April and October, 253; a 26; Arkansas sixes, funded, 52 a i MISCELLANEOUS. ‘The following were the latest prices for the lead- {ng Southern railway and municipal bonds:—Mo- bile and Ohio Railroad sterling, 90 a 92; do. interest eights, 85 a 87; do, second mortgage eights, 75 a 80; Mississippi Central Railroad first mortgage sevens, 8486; do. do. second mortgage eights, 80a 82; New Orleans and Jackson first mortgage, 87 a 89; do, do, second do., 78 a 82; Memphis and Charleston Railroad first mortgage, 86 a 90; do. do. second do,, 176478; Greenville and Columbia Railroad, guaran- teed by South Carolina, 45a 50; Macon and Bruns- wick, guaranteed by Georgia, 65 a 70; Memphis city sixes, 54a 57; Savannah city sevens, 84 a 87;,New Orleans consols, old, 70 a 76; do. issued to railroad, 8ixes, 70 & 74; do, sevens, 62 a 68, THR UNION PACIFIC RAILROAD. ‘The sales of the Land Department of the Union Pacific Railroad Company for the month of June, 1872, were 28,900 acres, amounting to $103,610, at an average of $4 30 per aore. The total sales from July 28, 1869, to the present date are 571,169 acres, Amounting to $2,399,410, at an average of $4 20 per nore, A NEW BANK, The recent large increase in the business activity of the quadrangle between Broadway and the North River, and between Fulton and Chambers streets, has made a demand for increased banking factiities and led to the establishment of a new bank, which has been located at the corner of Park place and College place, and is designated as the Produce Bank. lt commences operations to- morrow (Monday) morning, with a paid up capital of $200,000 (which may be increased to $1,000,000), and under the presidency of a gentleman who has been engaged in the banking business almost since 1850, THE BANK STATEMENT, The statement of the banks is highly favorable, and shows that those institutions are in an un- usually strong condition, the surplus reserve being close upon fourteen millions—an accu- mulation of funds likely to amply fortify them against the demands upon the money market in the fall season, The gain in deposits is over nine millions, although the actual gain in reserve is only about three and a half mii- lions, The increase in specie is nearly six millions, reflecting the outflow of coin from the Treasury in payment of the July interest on the public debt. A decrease of nearly two and a half millions in legal tenders is the result of the retention of greenbacks by the numerous savings banks throughout the city in order to meet a possible demand from depositors, An increase of nearly EIGHT MILLIONS IN LOANS, while explaining the increase in deposits, is not 80 readily explained in view of the current dulness in trade and at the Stock and Gold Exchanges, The statement compares with its predecessor as follows :— Loans, June 20, ecle 795,500 28,785,500 Circulation. 27,416,100 27,508,400 Deposits....... 232,387,900 241,774,900 Legal tenders. 54,951,400 52,508,600 The changes being in detail as follows :— Increase in loans. Increase in specie. Increase in circulation Increase in deposits. Decrease in legal tenders. AN ANALYSIS of the statement shows that the banks now hold as surplus reserve the sum of $13,973,275—a gain for the week of $1,177,375. This result is worked out in the following calculation, showing the relation be- tween the total reserve and the total labilities this week and last :— Tune 29, July 6, $22,795,500 $28,785,500 54,961,400 52,408,600 Changer.

The Erie Railway Election To-Morrow. A New Board of Directors To \ Be Chosen. \ _ A TAME ELECTION. James McHenry and the Interests of the At- lantic and Great Western Railway. The Act of the Legislature Under Which the Election is: Held. To-morrow will witness a turning point\in the fortunes of Erie, The election is to decide whether & great American railroad, which hag*beon brought to the verge of rain by a clique of knaves, shall be redeemed by honest and capable management, or ink to still lower depths of infamy. There is but one great organized party in the fleld atriving to obtain the control ot the road, and the election will therefore be comparatively tame. i Indeed, from all indications it will be a somewhat one-sided affair. Mr. James MoHenryy representing the powerful combination of the Atlantic and Great Western party, with the entire English interest, holds the great game in his own hands. Mr. Gilson Homan—perhaps the largeat of English shareholders—is actively co-operating with Mr. McHenry, who is quite positive in his anticipae tion of victory. Ever since his arrival in this country Mr. Mc Henry has almost exclusively devoted his energics to the task of forming A NEW BOARD OF DIRECTORS. His principal care avowedly is: to serve the inter- ests of the Atlantic and Great Western Railway, of which he is a director, without detriment to the Erie road and to insure an honest and eMicient Management of the latter. After many conferences and negotiations, in which Mr. McHenry, Mr. Bar- low, Mr. Charles Day and one or two other gentle- men belonging to the immer circle of the party took Pee a new board was agreed upon to be presented for election. It is comprised of the following gen- tlemen:— Mr. Schuchardt, Mr. 8. 1. M. Barlow, Mr. John J. Cisco, Mr. Bancock, Mr. W. B, Duneai Mr. RK. VY. L, Pruyn, Ex-Governor Morgan, Mr. Oliphant. Fight more gentlemen have been named direc- tors, but as they have not yet signified their accept- ance it would be premature to publish taeir names. GENKRAL DIX has been offered the Presidency, but his reply has not yet been received. In_ conversation with Mr. McHenry the writer ined what truth there'was in the sensational article published by a morning paper announcing, with the most positive assurance, that COMMODORE VANDERBILT had been offered, and that ho had accepted the Presldeney of the Erie Railway. Mr. Mclilenry replied :—It 1s all MOONSHINE, There isn’t a word oftruth in it, The president and directors of the Central are prevented by law from holding a like position in the Erie Railway, Mr. McHenry here stated that even Jay Gould had tendered his submission to the coming order of things; thathe had sent his PROXIES for 10,000 shares, with a letter, in which he offers, in addition to his proxies, his moral support (what- ever that may bd) to the combination presented by Mr. McHenry, “Here 1s probably another illustration of the French saying, ‘Les loups ne se mangent pas entre Ma oe thought the writer, and straightway queried :— “Does not Gould surrender his proxies in order to concillate your gs a so that he may be left in peaceful possession of the spoils?’” “Very likely. Itis pretty certain that GOULD has some such object in view, but the surrender of proxies will make no difference. He will be prose- cuted all the same. We are bound to continue the sult for our own justification, to prays that we had peor caine for turning him out of the presidency of rie. “So you are going to make him disgore those ten millions ?"" ‘ ‘We will make him disgorge as’ much as he has wrongfully appropriated.”’ THE ERIE REPEAL LAW. The following is the law under which the election 1s authorized and ordered to be held:— Aw Act relating to the Erie Railway Company, repealing chapter 916 of the laws of 1869, 0 far as relates to the classification of directors of the Erie Railway Company and the prolongation thereby of their terms of office, and vacating the offices of dirctors of snid company held thereunder, and ordering a new election for a tuil board of directors of sald company, and providing reg- th lrectors of sald com- pany and the transfer ofits stoc he people of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assembly, do enact as follows:— Section 1.—The act entitled “An act to amend chapter 278 of the Laws of 1%63, entitled an_ act in relation to the Erle, Now York Central, Hudson.
