FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. ‘THE CLOSE OF THE COTTON YEAR ne The Crop of 1871-72 as Compared with That of 1870-71. gitehenes The Great Flank Movement of the Speculators in Gold. ‘THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE DECLINE. The Economie, Political and Special Influences Affecting the Gold Premium. “The Tendency to Specie Pay- ments. The Problem of Money as Modi- fled by the Failure of the Chicago Wheat “Corner.” Saturday’s Bank Statement and Its Purport. WALL STREET, } SUNDAY, August 25, 1872. The ensuing week will be the last of the so-called cotton year, which begins conventionally on the 1st of September. ‘ae crop of 1871-72 has fallen short Of that of last year by about a million and a quarter bales—at least this is the discrepancy in the re- celpts at the ports. The amount will hardly be en- dJarged by the difference between the interior move- ment of cotton this year and last, and may be con. siderably reduced because of the increased domestic consumption and greater use of river and land carriage. The cotton market was in the main quiet and firm. The general trade of the city is getting brisker, and the merchants continue to be sanguine of a good Fall business. IN WALL STREET “the week was a busy one in the gold market, what with the great conversion of speculators from the “bull” to the “bear’’ side of the account and the changing of loans incidental to the increased ac- tivity thus occasioned. On one day the clearances at the Gold Bank reached the enormous total of ‘$142,000,000. Indeed, the success and adroitness ‘with which the leading spirits in the recent ‘bull’? speculation executed their . FLANK MOVEMENT IN GOLD will make it a memorable epoch in the history of ‘Wall street. After advancing gold to 11514 a 1158, and pinning it there for a few weeks, they found they were dealing on the wrong side of the market, Prop it up as they would, they found it give way under them at the least effort to sell. ‘The mar- ket was inherently weak, as it naturally would be with foreign exchange fully one per cent below the specie shipping point. The precedents ‘on which they had relied had been unreliable in. dices. Gold last year had been put to 11534 with comparatively little effort. It was incomprehensi- ble why at this, the corresponding season, it WOULD NOT STICK. By this time the clique, or rather the leaders of ‘it, began to find that there were a dozen different sources of exchange, which were always taking their market away from them. Now it was a new railroad loan and again it was some city or corpo- ration loan which kept feeding the gold market ‘with supplies. As for the effort to “squeeze” the merchants and compel them to cover their bor- rowed gold, it also proved a failure, because the merchants found they could borrow bills of ex- change just as easily asthe gold, and thus pay their indebtedness to Europe, The clique, baMed at every step and foiled in their chief design, the eusnaring of the MERCANTILE SHORT INTEREST, turned in their tracks at last, particularly as they ‘thought they discovered a fresh development of a feeliug in favor of the re-election of General Grant They sustained the market for a brief spell by Sporadic bidding for the ‘Treasury gold, and by like devices, but meanwhile were sell- ing their gold. The consequence was a decline from 115 (on Monday) to 1125s on yesterday. The highest point of the Summer was 115%, as against 115% last year. The clique held the market in 1871 until a later stage of the Summer, and sustained | the price at 114 8 115 until well into the Fall, The force employed this year as well as the means involved largely exceeded those of last year, so that the TENDENCY TO SPECIE PAYMENTS of our finaiices in getiéral is Well illustrated in the decline of gold the past week. Almost superhuman efforts were made to get gold beyond 115%, but they were doomed to failure by the inexora- Die laws which are governing the grand question of the relative vaiues of our gold) sand paper. We are extravagant be- yond precedent in our foreign imports, but yet ‘we some way manage to keep from overdoing our extravagance. If we buy ten millions of foreign goods more than we ought to buy, atong comes some European capitalist, as did the Messrs, Cross- ley & Co, the other day, and take ten millions of a Joan. And so it is going from YEAR TO YEAR, The only trouble about the whole matter ts in the far distant future, when we shall get to the end of our loansand bonds which are capable of attract- ing foretgn capital, and about that the average Wall street man, American citizen or merchant is not likely to trouble himself. But by that time we may have revolutionized the financial world and | made New York the centre of exchanges—a thing not improbable within the next Afteen or twenty years—and then specie payments will be a matter of course and as permanent as they are now in London or any otier place, The decline in gold Made an active demand at the close for bills on Europe, and the market left off strong on the basis of 109 a 1001; for prime bankers’ sixty day sterling and 109% a 109% for sight bills. MONEY, under & continuance of the demand from Chicago which outlasted the cause of its more active char- acter—viz., the great “corner? in wheat—ad- jvanced to 7 per cent on call, and induced a harden- : ing of discounts to 7); a 8 per cent for prime names. ;But with the culmination of the “corner the de- mand for money ceased, especially as the decline in ihe price of wheat checked the movement of the ycrop from the interior. Chicago thus finds itself supplied with money enough to carry ail its wheat at the high prices of the “corner.” “A strpies therefore exists at the present time, virtually, and the first counter effect has been felt in a reaction in New York to 8 per cent as the rate for money, with at the close on Saturday a steadier feeling at a later reaction to 4 per cent. With a check given to speculation in wheat and to the movement of the crop itself by the sudden fail in prices the opinion has becn oPeated that a deferment of ac- tion may be looked for undess the farmers make up -their minds to sel! at the new scale of prices or the marketing of the new cotton crop should assume a brisker character than usual. These are the UNKNOWN QUANTITI which aro about the only obstacle to a clearer dis- cermment of the course of the money market dur, jug the Fall months, But they cloud the problem enough to keep up speculation and doubt. SOUTHERN SECURITIES were duil and mostly neglected. The general list fuotuated within a trifing percentage, but further weakness was shown by the South Carolina July bonds, the leading speculative issues, which @eciined to 26%. raliving at the close to j Decrease in legal tenders.

GOVERNMENTS BONDS underwent a general and considerable decline, as a consequence, in the first place, of their sympathy with the gold quotation, and, in the second, of large sales by holders, who had bought for a tem- porary investment pending the low rates for money in the summer, which purpose having been served the bonds were returned tothe market. The following prices were made at the close on Saturday afternoon :—United States-currency sixes, 112% @ 118; do. do. sixes, 1881, registered, 1144 a 115; do. do., coupon, 11645 a 116% ; do. five-twentics, registered, May and November, 114% @ 114%; do. do., 1962, coupon, do., 114% a 114%; do. do. 1864, do., do., 1145¢ a 114%; do. do., 1865, do., do., 115 a 11534; do. do,, registered, January and July, 113} a 114; do. do,, 1865, coupon, do., 11314 a 118%; do. do., 1867, do., do., 1144¢ a 1144; do. do., 1868, do., do., 113% 1144; do. ten-forties, registered, 108% a 109; do. do,, coupon, 111% a 111%; do. fives of 1881, re- gistered, 111% a 112%; do. do, do., coupon, 111% ame. STOCKS during the week were in the main heavy, as a con- Sequence of the more active demand for money in the earlier portion of it, but slowly improved in the last few days, so as to regain all but 3g a %¢ per cent of Monday's figures. The leading feature was Erie, which rose to 52%, dropped next day to 46's, rose again to 48, went off again to 46, and closed at 4643, pursuing ia these several fluctua- tlons corresponding changes in the London market, by which our own is entirely guided, so far as this stock is concerned.

THE COURSE OF THE GOLD MARKET. The extreme fluctuations daily in tie price of gold during the week were as follows :— Highest. byt 14; 11435 11444 + 113% + 11334 THE BANK STATEMENT, The weekly statement of the associated banks is quite unfavorable, owing to an impairment of the surplus reserve to the extent of about a million and a half of dollars. The heavy movement of currency to the West in connection with the Chicago wheat “corner,” and the natural demand for money at this season in the rural districts are reflected in a | reduction of over nine millions in the deposits. As Lowest, ‘Thursday. Friday . the loss in legal tenders is only about a million and a half, and the contrac- tion in sloans about three and a quarter millions, the difference must have been shipped in national banx votes. A decrease in specie of two millions is A RELIC a relle of the futile “bull” speculation in gold ‘when the cliques were holding the coin off the market. The gold which they have since returned to the banks makes little or no show in the present week's averages, but will appear in all its volume next weck, doubtless. Hence the specie average is a rising average, and the banks are really stronger than the analysis of their statement makes them out to be, especially as the movement of currency has greatly abated with the fall in the price of wheat. It was the greater consideration paid to these latter facts rather than to the absolute statement itself that explains the firmness of the stock market after so bad an ex- hibit. Indeed, with the FALL IN THE PRICE OF WHEAT and with the great accumulation of grain in Chicago, it would not be surprising if the further movement of money, at least in an active degree, should be deferred until rauch later in the season, or until the farmers have got accus- tomed to the lower prices prevalent since the failure of the wheat “corner. The statement compares with its predecessor as follow: August 11.

Colored Warm Springs and Magnificent Can- yous---The Utes and Their Capers---Gen- eral News of the Expedition, Spayisin ForK, CenrnaL Ura, August 15, 1872, On Saturday, 84 August, Lieutenant Wheeler's party struck camp in Salt Lake Gity, and in two days made the fifty miles to Provo, a Mormon town of adobe houses, directly south of Salt.Lake and on the western shore of Utah Lake. Lieutenant Hoxie had six days before left for the southwest of Salt Lake, in command of a party which was to explore Western Utah and portions of Easteri™ Nevada, enter and ex- amine the mining districts of that region and map the whole of the western quarter of Utah, the most barren and forbidding part of the Territory, joining the other parties at Beaver, In Southern Central Utah, about the middle of Sep- tember. Their operations will be duly chronicled for you as soon asa junction shall be made with the party at Beaver, A HALT, Lieutenant Wheeler's immediate command, about half of the expedition, lay for the greater part of a week at Provo, under the shadow of snow-capped mountains and in the delicious atmosphere of Utah Valley, waiting for delayed instruments and mak- ing a beglining in the consecutive work of the sea- son. An accurate base line was established and con- nection made with the survey of the tortieth paral- Jel, under Mr. Clarence King, while side parties of geologists, topographers and naturalists did care- ful work in the neighboring mountains and caii- ons, A number of INDIAN MOUNDS, the existence of whichin this locality has been frequently dowbted, were opened with consicer- able thoroughness, and after comparatively bad luck and the finding of mere broken pottery, pieces of bone, human end other, broken pesties and mortars of stone for sced-brulsing, numbers of ar- rowheads and other relics, at length an almost complete skeleton was dug out and immediately forwarded to Washington with the rest of the spoils. Until a careful examination shall be made, no {inportance can be attached to tlus discovery; but, inasmuch as the skeleton was found in the midst of a network of mounds of various form and feature, whose characteristics have been noted, light may perhaps be thrown on the dark theme of the mounds in this region. Northeast of Provo opens a wild canyon into the interlor of the Wahsatch. Into this canyon, on “the morning of Saturday, the 2d inst. Lieutenant Wheeler led a portion of his command, having previously despatched two other parties, under command of Lieutenants Mar- shall and Dinwiddie, to the south, to sweep the country lying directly south of Utah Lake. Thus at the present time the expedition is divided into FIVE PARTIES, stretching in their areas of work from the Nevada line on the west to the almost unvisited mountains and plains northwest of the Green River, in the centre of Utah. Into this unvisited country Lieu- tenant Wheeler led his small party, in light marching order, throngh the grand portal of Provo Canyon. Baggage wagons, angoulance and tenis were abandoned to the more easy moving commands going South, and on the backs of mules were packed the paraphernalia of a three weeks’ scrambie among the mountains. Urbanus saw bis clean roll of cherished bedding strapped in danger- ous proximity to a greasy sack of pork on the back of the wildest of mules; Topographicus looked aismay as his spare tripod and box of instruments banged and pounded trees on the narrow trail; and (he cook was consternation itself, as at the first deep ford a mule, heavy laden with mess boxes and utensils, staggered on the stony bottom of the river, fell, struggled with the swift current and finally’ kicked himself free of aparejox and rushed in and hauled out the stranded staff and hard tack uf lite. Such minor accidents—the back- ing of unhappy mutes and riding with wet feet-— could not blind us to the GRANDEUR OF THE OPENING CANYON as we filed into it in early morning light. Past its gray walls, seamed and scarred with the jalling torrents and debris of untold ages of winters; past its rarely seen waterfalis, where far above our heads they plunged sheer over precipices dwarfed mto deceptive height by the marvellous atmosphere; past the stratified walls of Battle Creek Mountain, with its irregujar alcove running far into the heart of the hills, surmounted by a huge cornice of snow, we kept our way, Twelve miles of canyon, and on the sec- ond day we emerge into @ broad valley, flanked on the weat by the high peaks of the Wahsatch, rising in this view to even grander proportions than in the view from Provo on the other side, vast masses of snow filling the deeply cleft gorges of the summit and sending their icy coldness down tous in the refreshing streams and springs that we find continually. Leaving the pack train, and keeping Midway and Heber City, Mormon settie- ments in the valley, in sight, a few of us gallop with our judicial Mormon guide, tour or five miles away toa wonderful cofection of limestone springs in the Snake River region. As we approach them, miles of stonewall of tafa remind us ew Englaryl (until we examine the structure of the stone), and we gallop over acres of ground formed by outpourings of these springs. A dozen of them stand in a small area near each other, in adjoining ficlds, and in the distance many more which we do not A SPRING. The largest that we mounted stands sixty-five feet high, seventy-five in diameter at the top and 120 at base, much resembling its fellow country- man, the Mormon Tabernacie, in outline. Climb- ing ‘up its crumbling sides,’ over which small streams are running, yearly diminishing, we find an aperture of twenty feet diameter in the top, with a — black, hot, —_infernal-tast- ing water filling it to the rim. Columns of bubbles rise from unseen depths, breaking as they meet the air, and as we gaze down into the dim interior, where blue, green and white patches of stone, with curious honeycomb formations, are vaguely distinguishable, unconsciously the mind fol- lows the line of bubbles down through the dark abyss ot water and wonders at tue mystery of their source. ‘the thermometer showed 108 degrees in this largest spring, gnd strange to say a lively frog was captured atthe Very summit, after many elusive dartings from the hand of the naturalist. The smaller springs are of about the same temperature as the largest, but vary much in the color of their waters. Some are uigae green, some dark as emerald, some bluish black, and rumor says that a blue and a red are among the extinct, whose hollow shells stand empty, filled to the level of the outer ground with earth aad weeds, A courageous farmer lives hard oY and ploughs the thin sail close to their rocky aases, Crossing Provo Valley and following up Daniel's Creek Canon to the southeast, we slept on the third night from Provo in STRAWBERRY VALLEY, 8,000 feet above the sea.

Counting scalps, we found that we were a tle, gentlemen of the red and gentiemen of the white. But the conmandatore remarked that every red was armed with a gun, while we whites could count but two carbines and a brace of six-shooters. Alarm was needless, however, as ey proved friendly Utes, and together we cantered campwards, meet- ing their own moving camp on the way, their squaws doing the work while the braves rede care- less and beet tobacco, Reveries of women's rights were startled by the cry of “ANTELOPE,” Laud, Uke the wind @ ball desea Reaves Mow up the pack, coming out bruised and trembling, while we | of startled antelones, flyit hn.

The number ofprisoners brought up was sixty-nine, of whom the greater portion were charged with intoxication and the usual Saturday night brawls, ASSAULT ON A COLORED GIRL. As Jennie Franklin, a colored girl, aged twenty- two, was on, her way to her home, at No. 411 West Nineteenth street, about eleven o'clock on Satur- day night, she was met by two rufians, named Patrick McNamee, of No. 148 West Nineteenth street, and Thomas Brennan, of No, 122 West Nineteenth street. They came up to the girl and used some indecent language, of which, however, she took no notice, but endeavored to pass on. She was seized by Brennan and pulled into an alleyway, when McNamee laid hold of her, threw her on the ground, and despite her resistance rayished her person, While McNamee was engaged in his hellish work his brave companien held the unfortunate victim down and kept his hand over her mouth the whole time to prevent her calling for assistance cowardly rumans were held by Justice Cox in and $300 bail respectively to answer for crime. THE KNIFE AMONG THE DEMI-MONDE. Two young women, named Minnie De Forrest and Bella Williams, of South Fiith avenue, both we known visitors at the police station of the district, had a dispute on the street last night, and de- cided to settle it with their fists, ala Mace and O'Baldwin, Minnie, however, found she was getting the worst of it, and, drawing a knife, stabbed the gentle Bella over the eye, Which speedily brought the mill toa close, Minnie was held in $500 to un- swer, LOST JUS WATCH, Charles T. McGee, of 30 Watts street, was invited Me @ philanthropic young lady named Jennie ‘Thompson to accompany to her room in Bleecker street on Saturday night, as he looked lonely, Charles accepted the kind mvitation, but on leaving the young lady's apartment found ins watch was gone. He had her arrested on a charge of grand larceny, but during the morning got back his wate, withdrew the charge, and went on \is way rejoicin, MAYHEM IN THE TWENTIETH WARD. Charles Bancroft and Navid Logan, both residing at No. 205 West Thirty-eighth street, had a quarrel on Saturday night, when Bancroft bit Logan on the check, taking the piece clean out. Bancroft was held to answer in $300, ‘THE KNIFE AGAIN. William Heugge, of 46 Thompson street, was brought up for following Christian G.

Saturday Night Sprees and Where They Lead To—Virtuous Indignation ofan Alleged Pickpocket—A Lager Ecer Glass as an Offensive Weapon. The victims of intemperance and the other vile passions to which humanity is heir were plentiful enough at the above Court yesterday at ils morn. ing session. Black eyes, swolien countenances and dilapidated appearance were the rule, showing how severe had been the previous night's debauch- ery. The most important case bronght to the no- tice of the Court was that of an exceedingly inno- cent-looking youth, who was accused of being a plekpocket. Justice Covirer to the prisoner—Is this your legitimate business + PRISONER, with a wavering look—No, sir, it is not. I want an examination and [ think I will be able to prove myself innocent. The Court—From the testimony now before me Thardly think it would be well for you tobe too hopeful, but [ will accord you an examination on to-morrow afternoon. In the meantime you stand committed. From the testimony of the complainant, Mr. Wil- liam Balmer, of Morrisanta, it ha that while he was riding up town on a Madison avenue car a man, whose name is as zt unknown, picked his pocket of a pocketbook containing $237. The stranger then jumped off the car and ran away. Baimer attempted to follow him, but was a vented from doing so by the be trl Philip Wil- son, Balmer finally succeeded yore from the car and he followed the man who had stolen his money, who, on finding that he could not get awa, with his booty, threw it away. Mr. Balmer picked the pocketbook up and tound the money was all right. Wilson, the prisoner, had followed close upon his heels to lend a helping hand, probably, to his friend, the thief, in case he needed assistance and Balmer caused his arrest as @ matter of cours Alexander Collins, a youth of about fifteen years: of age, was charged with stealing $29 from William Sullivan, of East Forty-seventh stre He pleaded not guilty, as all do, whether guilty or not, but was, notwithstanding, held for trial in defauit of John Delmone, @ vicious looking little fellow, while intoxicated, on Saturday night, attacked a peach vender and beat him because he refused to allow him to have a free lunch oif his fruit. OMcer Foy, of the Nineteenth precinct, came along, and a rough and tumble fight occurred between him and John, during which the latter was cut twice on the head by the oficer with his club, Committed for examination. John Early, of No. 608 Second avenue, on Satur- pute with Dennis Cusac, of No. 9 Fourth avenue, during which the latter laid riy ont with a blow of a lager beer glass on the be bled the head, Dennis was held in $1,000 bail for trial. John Lowe, who made, desperate efforts to make the Court believe he was an honest, respectable citizen, was arraigned on suspicion of having in his possession a horse that had been stolen. He failed to give a satisfactory explanation of his pos- session of the animal, and was in consequence held for further inquiry. The foregoing were the only cases worthy of note in a pretty large calendar, and when they were dis- posed of the Court adjourned, THE DEATH OF MRS. DYKES. Post-mortem Examination. Deputy Coroner Joseph Cushman yesterday made apost-mortem examination at the Morgue on the body of Mrs. Margaret Dykes, late of 442 West Twenty-eighth street, who was fatally clubbed by her son Joseph, as previously reported.
