FINNGIL, AND COWMBREUL. ‘Anoiher Eventful Week in the ‘Wall Street Markets. «<A Rise of 15 Per Cent in -Pacific Mail. ‘WATCHING THE LONDON MARKET. "Batente Cardiale of the Bank of France and Bank of England. ‘“SATURDAY'S BANK sTATEMENT. “Zhe Surplus Revenue Rises to $8,027,475. WALI. STREET, ; Sunpay, Oct. 20, 1872, ‘The week just closed has embraced within its (.Qrief.six business days a singular variety of incl- Goats and doings, both in financial and in commer- «led circles, In our foreign trade THE STRIKING FEATURE ‘te ‘the large decrease in the importations of foreign weeds and a corresponding increase in our exports g@f,@omestic merchandise. Of course this is the y@@eneon when our exports are heaviest and our im- eporte lightest, but the difference between them ‘fhe past week at this port was remarka- ke. The exports were, in fact, nearly «® milion more than the imports. New Berk i@ now exporting the - products and + Manufactures of the country at the rate of nearly a million dollars a day, and as our city exports only # small fraction of the entire amount sent abroad from the whole country, while importing nearly ‘@f all the goods that come in, the actual condition of the foreign trade of the nation must be very flourish- img. The last report of the Washington Burean of Statistics showed that, for the ten months ending April 30, 1872, onr imports were $93,000,000 in excess @feur exports. That was part of our past extrava- “pance. We are now in a new fiscal year and we ean hardly doubt, from the altcred state of our Pereign trade the past few months, that the report Mor'the current fiscal year will show a great amelio- ‘ation of the evil of an excess of importa over ex- THE MONEY MARKEY Bas worked with satisfactory ease to borrowers on + @all, but is yet close for borrowers on time and on : mercantile paper. Lenders in the daily market of * Wall strect were compelied to be content with an average of not over 5 per cent for money advanced \@pon pledges of the usual Stock Exchange.collat- erals, the extreme rates up and down having been ¥and2 percent. Prime paper is quoted 9 a 12 per @ent discount, an occasional picce of ‘“gilt-edged” passing at the Jower figure, with most of the busi- mene ator above 10 per cent. In view of the report @f the banks, as made on Saturday, it is not im- probable that the merchants will find readier accommodation at lower rates in the immediate fature. The banks now hold a surplus of over $9,000,000, and with the Fall season pretty weil ever, need have little apprehension of any import- at outwara drain of currency. It would not be serprising, therefore, to hear that a good deal of paper will be discounted at bank which is now Being offered to the street. Foreign exchange left « ©@ on the basis of 108% and 1104 for actual busi- mexe In prime sterling bills. THE BANK OF ENGLAND has becn the cynosure of the Wall strect markets + @aring the greater portion of the week, and from @ay to day reports were prevalent that the mana- ere contemplated a further advancement in the mate of discount. An extra mecting was even , talked of for Wednesday, but no alteration was » @ade even on Thursday, the regular day. By Sat- urday the report was again revived in explanation ‘4.4 sudden fall in consols, and still later came a ptatement by cable that the Bank of France had , Waned the Bank of Evgiaud a bundred million francs. No reason for the latter transaction being Given Wall street cast about for one, and came to the conclusion that 1t was a loan to the Bank of England by the French government of one hun- w@red million francs of the money subscribed in . Epgiand to THE FRENCH LOAN. ‘That is, the French government gave notice ; @irough the Bank of France that it would not at , Present call for the money due from English sub- seribers, but allow it to remain in London. This Mmecident appears to have been developed after Dasiness hours in London, for the money market Saturday was reported very active at and above ‘the bank rate, anda special meeting of the bank for Monday to advance the rate further was a@trongly mooted. A featare of the London market ai} the week has been the firmness of our Bends, which were even a_ trifie better at the close against a fall of 4% a % per cent in consols. Possinly the English imvestor is beginning to give our six and five per cents a long-merited preference. Per- . Bape consols are failing because rather of a chang- fae of investments than of a fear of what the Bank of England is doing or going to do with the @ecount rate. The certainty of General Grant's we-election is an assurance to moneyed men abroad mot less than at home. If the Bank of England is s@larmed it is because of a dread of a flow of capital , 0 this country and into American sccurities, Yet ‘Wall street was illogical enough during the past ‘Week to run up gold and depress stocks because the GM Lady of Threadneedie Street was threatening - Mraive the discount rate. She could have paid us BO better compliment. But Wall street failed to wee the Mattery. TUR STOCK MARKPT ‘Was active, with a sharp rise in prices until the agitation of the matter discussed in the last few sentences arose, when a feverish weakness set in @nd undid the early improvement. The chief feat- ‘wre wae Pacific Mail, which rose from 85 on Monday ,$0,100%; on Saturday. The last leader of the “bears”? eevered on Friday, and next day, so it is reported, Joined hands with the “ bull” clique, and went jong @f the stock. ‘The pool held the price at 100 bid to (Be close, and must have bought a large propor- thon of the capital stock.

SATURDAY’S BANK STATEMENT. ‘The weekly statement of the associated banks is highly favorable, thanks to the government dis- bursements of money; which, from the system of averages, did not make their full appearance in the previous weck’s statement, but are seen in the one published below. The increase in specie is smaller than anticipated, but the gain m green- backs is not far from seven millions. The deposits have increased over eleven millions, The banks, despite their large gain in resources, show ouly two and a quarter millions of an increase in loans But any expansion in loans at this season of the year is something out of the usual course of the banking movement and reflects THE STRONG POSITION in which the banks now stand, The statement compares with its predecessor of last week as fol- lows :— Oct. 19. $270,557,600 22, —The changes being as follows Increase in Joans..... Increase in specie... Decrease in circulation 81,600 Increase in deposite..... +«11,322,100 Increase in legai tenders. 6,827,000 AN ANALYSIS of the above figures shows that the banks have. in- creased their liabilities $12,200,500 against the re- ceipt of $7,234,700 of what counts as legal reserve. Their gain in net reserve is therefore $4,412,075, which, added to the excess of last week, leaves them with the (for this time of year) remark- able surplus of $8,027,475. This result is worked out in the following calculation, showing the rela- tion between the total reserve and the total liabil- ities this week and tapt— Circulation Total Hab $217,447,200 $28,787,700 25 per cen +, 64,361,800 "67,184,425 Excess over rtegel TOSEFVE.....0-..+ $3,615,405 — $8,027,475 Inc.. $4,412,075 STOCKS ON SATURDAY.

At the annual meeting of the Toledo, Wabash and Western Railroad Company the gross earnings for the last fiscal year were reported to be $5,736,656, The entire operating expenses, including taxes, were $3,776,827; balance, $1.959,833. The total interest on the bonded debt and preferred stock, including capitalized roadway at Quincy and Hamilton, was $1,359,120, leaving a net balance of $600,717, Although the net profits of the year were equivalent to four per cent on the entire common stock of the company, the directors concludea to omit the payment of a divi- dend and use the surplus for procuring additional equipment and otherwise promoting the eMficiency of the road, The gross earnings of 1871 were $5,736,665; gross earnings of 1870, $4,544,640; in- crease, $1,192,024. The whole number of miles of railway owned and leased by the company is 934. ‘The aggregate capital of the company remains un- changed, to wit:—$15,000,000 of general stock, $1,000,000 preferred stock and $17,700,000 bonds, COMMERCIAL REPORT. ie Cotton in Good Demand and Steady for Spot, but Easier for Future; Receipts at the Ports, 10,830 Bales—Flour and Wheat steady—Corn Easier—Oats Firm—Coffee and Sugar Active Strong—Pork Higher=Lerd = Firm= Naval Stores Quict, but Firm—Petro- leum Steadier—Whiskey Firm. SATURDAY, Oct. 19—6 P. M. ‘The past week has witnessed a fair trade move- ment in all branches of the general merchandise markets, the steady ruling of the gold premium and the comparative ease in the money market having induced @ more general disposition to operate, and a good business in all the leading commodities was the reault, The Fall business has become quite generally ac- tive once more, and, except in the event of further arbitrary measures to influence financial matters, a steady movement may be expected for some time tocome, The export movement in cot- ton and breadstufls has been the most noteworthy feature of the past week and promises to be the leading feature of the next. The rates of freight to European ports, but more especially to Liverpool, have fluctuated considerably, having becn greatly depressed during the greater part of the week, but recovering somewhat during the latter part under a more active inquiry for room. Vessels for charter have been freely sought after, but not so readily obtained, even at the high rates prevailing, To-day basiness was father slow, os usual on Saturdays, but nevertheless the sales were fair.

In the grocery marke’ sugar and coffee were the attractive articles, and liberal sales were made at full, and in some instances, higher prices.

Ten delegates were present. On account of the non-attendance of the French Corresponding secretary it was decided to appoint citizen Hubert to that position. A communication Was received from ‘Switzerland, signed by G. Le- francais, who is at present under sentence of death for taking an active part in the rising of the Com- mune in Paria in 1870, He was appointed by Sec- tions Three and Twenty-two as their representa- tive at the recent Congress at the Hague. He states in his letter that a meeting of dele. gates from the dissatisfied sections, or those who do not adhere to the General Council, took Place in Switzerland.’ Delegates from Switzerland, France, Spain, Italy, Belgium and Russia were present. The meeting unanimously denounced the | action of the Congress, and had sufficient evidence erere that the whole affair was concocted by Karl Marx. It was also decided that a Universal | will about the 16th of next March, and an nce gases. fee aie af Dat | over the world to send delegates. is their purpose at the to organize tical. The removal of the eral Council from rope to America has caused greatdscstninetion and Internationals of cannot conceive the motives for so acing, as it isin ERR. where the mest work was to be done. As America, there is no wane, against the will of the people, and of course Internationals must blame the pepple if th if there sie phere not to their liking. reading of the above news was hailed with great snag gy was the theme of some spirited addresses. tenor of the speeches was that a goa opportuni! pis had presented itself, and noth- pt Won i Ma! Enns to eet ee proposed Iniversal Congress in every respect worthy of the at cause for which it is to be undertaken, it was then decided to inform the sce. peciead a the proposed Congress, At _ this the proceedings, Citizen West, faenn Teprosentatve of the Council at the Hague, entered the room, ‘This wag his first appearance peaks | the members since his return. He was re- ceived rather coldly, but was called upon to give an account of his actions at the Con- gress. e delegate then arose and delivered an address for three-quarters of an hour. In the course of his-speech he said that the Congress was called for the parpane of ratifying the opinions Me Karl Marx; that he was not allowed to reply to beige made against him; that one-third of Congress were men whose inter- pen were loreign to those of workingmen, and the remainder were adventurers, who were wiliung to take up anything. The Congress did not really d® anything, excepting making the socicty a peperiee well as social one, and of course the Inited States bearing the reputation of being the haven of alt poittical bodies, it was decided that the, General Council should assemble in New York citys ; but, concluded the igre they forgot they constituents, and, owing to their ab- solute despotic ‘action, the French, Italian, Spanish, Swedish, Belgians and in fact the Internationals all over the world, are dis- | i gusted with the proceedings of the Congress, | and was determined to hold another one. He | briefly described an interview with the American Minister in London, Hon. Mr. Schenck, The tleman at the Court of St. James expressed self as surprised to see a “Yankee Fommunist;? but the venerable delegate, in his eos proved that the Pilgrims that landed at Plymouth Rock were Communists, interview, however, re- sulted very belgie tor Citizen West, as the ‘Min- ister got him out of some’ trifing diMcalty in a Anancial tof view. Tt was then unanimously decided that each mem- ber be allotted certain States, for which they are to act as tomiger agains secretaries. After some de- liberation the following was decided upon :—Citi- zen Banks, Secretary for Canada, New Hampshire and Vermont; Citizen Engells, Secretary for Mass- achusetts, Rhode Island and Conneeticut; Citizen Hubert acts as French correspondent for the World ; MURDER RECORD, Twenty-two Men in the ‘Tombg Charged with Murder. A GHASTLY ARRAY. OF BLOODY SPEETRES A Few Particulars of the Crimes—A Terrible Record for a Year—Foster and Stokes—The Murders Never Heard Of—A Flame of Hope Still Burning. i cd It may well be said that murder is a commeg, crime in this city, It comes, too, like an bringing a series of bloody deeds and deaths. Somé@a times the deed is done im open day, again night, and at times it is the climax ofa long j intricate plot that baffies all elucidation. In trac- ing the causes of this greatest of crimes records show that rum and women wield the pist and the knife in most instances, Very seldom we hear of a murder for mere robbery. Drunket ness and jealousy seem tobe the great forces to the gallows, Yet not always to propelling we But whether the la\ lows, for the process that leads thereto is and the courts are cautious, seizes the criminal rightly or wrongly, the victim’ » is here still and the murder is done. That Egyptian pile known as the Tombs, so full of so many stories of ghastly crime, harbors now @ number of poor wretches charged with murders Within the failing walls of that damp, stony builds ing what a deal of suffering, woe, sorrow and rev morse fills the minds of its inhabitants! If ghost do ever appear, what an array of ghastly f¢ with feeble movement, with revengeful faces, wit strangled throats and protruding tongues and Staring, senseless eyes, must be hovering around the prison corriders in the nighttime! What visions in their sleep must the poor culprits have,’ locked up, from weck’s end to week's end, in t) dark, gloomy cells of the Murderers’ Row! ‘Twenty. three men, ten in the prime of youth and manhood, lie here, dreaming poor, weak, hopeful dreams of re« lease; dreaming horrible dreams of justice ; dreams ing as none but men charged with the crime of murder can possitily dream, or can be imagined dream—sadly, if innocent; but how terribly staré ing if the blood lies upon their heads! We have had within a year such a‘record of murders that, doubtless, the public has forgettent most of them. Who knows how many murders aré committed in our midst that the worla never of? Would it be rash to say that the poor, lifeless. corpse that is kept from rotting by the dripping of the water upon it on a slab in the Morgae is al- ways “accidentally drowned,” or that it is a case of “suicide!” There are dark nights on the wharves, and the nolse from the splash of @ drunken man or woman does not reach where re- ef comes from. There are dark nights, too, out im the river, and neither the cry for help nor the vay of the victim can reach the shore. “An traknowm man” often, It is to be feared, means “Theve ig a brother murdered in the river.” With these cases, however, the Morgue, and n the Tombs, is concerned. Through the tnt of Mr. Mark Finley, the Warden of the Tombs, HERALD reporter was recently enabled to ascery tain the names and the number of prisoners in thd Tombs who are now awaiting their trial for mure der. The total number is twenty-two, and th followin; ees the names of the accused, ia names of the victiins and the dates on which the prisoners were taken to the jail:— MAY 4, 1871.—William Foster, for the murder of Citizen Halbert, Secretary for Pennaylvani Mary: Avery D. Putnam.

FRENCH INTERNATIONALS IN OOUNOIL, Two Members of the Gencral Council Resign—A Breach in the Ranks. The French Internationais held their regular meeting yesterday in the Casino, on East Houston street. Communications were read from Citizens David and Ward, recently appointed members of the present General Council by the Congress at the Hague, in Holland. Citizen David stated the decision taken »y the Congress was in viola- tion of the general statutes of the associa- tion, and accordingly he would not take his seat at the meeting of the General Council, He stated that he could not sit at a council that ‘was completely devoted to Kari Marx, and he has no disposition to serve under the banner of the denunciators of the Spanish Socialist Alliance. He will not consent -to march by the side of the men who are acting @ pitiable comedy that 1s at pres- ent bel played to the detriment of the Interna- tional Association, Citizen Ward stated that he was invited, but would not attend, and would in- form the Council that he has no Ge ee of tak! an; t in the peeing st @ body of men i was organi ued for tl garpase. of his opinion, to create disunion in the In eee ranks, al ‘and whose absolute Efalgi ld of sopending es and federal councils are sim; py. lous. The reading of the above was the of great surprise, and the actions of David and Ward were heartil endorsed. ‘ench Internationals all over the worid are disgusted at the wire-p of Carl Marx, and from the fact that two members of the General Council have resigned there is another breach in the ranks that cannot well beclosed up.
