i FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, A Better Bank Statement than Looked For. —-—____ A SLIGHT GAIN IN SPECIE. The Legal Tenders fown a Million and a Half and the Surplus Reserve Less than Two and a Half Millions, Contradictory Statements from the London Market. Easier, but Consols and Five- Money ; Twenties Lower. GOLD STEADY AND FIRM. The Week’s Export of Specie Nearly Three Millions. 4 FIRMER SPECULATION IN STOOKS. Rumored Organization of a “Bull” Clique in Erie. WALL StREeEr, Saturpay, Nov, 16—6 P. iu} Oa 'Change to-day cotton was quiet and easy, ‘but not quotably lower. Flour was steady, Wheat ‘was again better, and corn was easter, closing dull. ‘ THE IMPORTS OF THE WEEK. | The total imports or foreign goods at this port during the past week were $5,717,907, made up of $1,218,089 of dry goods and $4,499,818 of general merchandise, THE COTTON MOVEMENT. The receipts of cotton at all ports for the past week were 110,610 bales, against 133,705 bales the ‘previous week. The total receipts since Septem- ber 1, 1872, are 887,588 bales, against 666,608 for the Bame period of last year, showing an increase in the present crop of 220,980 bales, The exports Trom all the ports for the week were 75,462 bales, fgainst 59,889 last year. The total exports for the expired portion of the cotton year are 379,323 bales, against 289,435 last year. The stock at all the ports 18 343,723 bales, against 529,165 for the same date in AbTi. iS MONEY EASIER. The moncy market was active early in the day at 4-32 a 1-16 per cent, but relaxed aiter two o'clock, and loans were made at as low as 4 per cent before #hree o’clock. Mercantile paper was quoted 10a 82 per cent discount for prime names. Foreign ex- change was dull and weak at the rates quoted yes- ferday, which were nominally those of to-day, THE BANK STATEMENT. The weekly statement of the associated banks, avhile unfavorable, was so much better than what "vas expected that it was regarded almost asa good ‘one. The more surprising feature is a small gain pf specie, instead of the large loss that was antici- pated as a consequence of the specie export of bout $3,000,000 during the week. The explanation of this gain lies in the steady and large disburse- jments of gold in payment of NOVEMBER INTEREST , and redemption of the called five-twenties, which, nvith the million sold by the Su-Treasury, were More than enough to counterbaiance the export referred to and the amount paid into the Treasury on account of customs, which latter ran much lighter for the past week than usual, The specie item is made on a falling average, however, and ‘the banks would show a large decrease in specie ‘were the statement made up to show their condi- tion as they stand at present, instead of giving the gverage of the past week. The loans are con- ‘tracted, but to an insignificant extent. With a 4oss of @ million and a half legal tenders there is AN INEXPLICABLE INCREASE ‘of about a million in deposits, the natural inference peing that while the banks have shipped the greenacks they have received nearly three mil. fions of national bank notes, an implied movement of the domestic exchanges not consistent with the ts during. the past week, unless, as some think, ore Money came here in private hands to buy goods for Boston than went away to Boston fthrough the open channels of the banks and ex press companies. The statement compares with its predecessor as follows :— 00 13,424,200 27,588, 100 An analysis of these figures shows that the banks fave encrouched upon their surplus reserve to the extent of $1,645,950, and that their surplus Feduced to $2,200,825. ‘ THE FOREIGN MARKET. , Cable advices report money easier in London, out Mo lower than the bank rate. At the same time there secms to be some new cause of disturb- ance this evening, for our bonds have fallen off 34 for the new fives and ¥ for the five-twenties, and consols are off +4 per cent. GOLD STEADY—113%4 A 113%. The gold market was steady. with the interest centring im the loan market, which opened strin- gent, but closed easy and heavy, as if the pool haa | 4, postponed their ‘squeeze,’ owing to the genera! anticipation of their intentions. The day’s export of specie was $640,000, of which $450,000 was gold coin. The bank statement exerted no influence upon the premium. The course of the market is shown in the table :— 10 A.

UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT. Important Suit—The Breach of Contract of Affreightment—Continuation of the Cause Since 1864—The Question of Paying legal Assessments Under Pro- test. WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 16, 1872. No. 244. Young vs. Steamboat Key City and Barge Jim Sheets and Northwestern Union Packet Com- pany.—Appeal from the Circuit Court for the East- ern District of Wisconsin.—This is an action for the breach of contract of affreightment occasioned by the sinking of the vessel carrying it. The loss occurred in May, 1864, the barge Jim Sheets and steamer towing her then being the property of the Northwestern Packet Company, and continuing such until the Ist of May, 1866, at which time they were sold to the Northwestern Union Packet Company. The libel was filed in November, 1867, and process served in April 1868. Upon this state of facts the Court enforced the Admiralty Tule allowing a continuance of the lien against the offending vessels until a reasonable time is given to enforce it, and holding that as such time had elapsed in this case before the vessels were trans- ferred to the present owners, the lien case must be considered as lost. Third re ons are not to be prejudiced by the delay of a party negiecting to avail himself of this len. There being no notice to the present purchasers of the existetce of the lien, it was cut off by the sale and transfer of the vessels. It is here contended that mere lapse of time will not defeat the lien, and that the con Ont ance of the vessel even to an innocent person will not do it. N.J. Emmons for appellant, John W. Carey for appellees. No, 241, Erskine vs. Van Arsdale; Error to the Circuit Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin; and 242, Same vs. Same.—These were actions to recover the amount of internal revenue duties paid under protest upon thimble-skins and pipe-boxes of cast iron, manufactured by the defendant in error, The Court charged the jury that by the act approved March 2, 1867, such articles made of iron, cast or wrought, were exempt from taxation, and that the tax was illegally assessed. The verdict and juagment were Sccorainnny for the plain- tits, and the government brought the case here and maintained that the act applied only to such articles in their finished state, while the evidence showed that the tax collected from the defendants in error, which they seek to recovér, was not assessed upon the articles named In such completed state, but upon the iron castings out of which sach articles are made. The question is also raised whether parties paying such taxes must make protest at the time of each pay- ment in order to recover all taxes erroneously col- lected, or whether one protest is suficient-—the government insisting that protest must be made upon the occasion of each payment. ©. A. Hiil and George H. Williams, for the government; John Wa Carey for the defendante, i THE EQUINE DROPSY. The Dropsical Symptoms Still Prevailing—The Condition of the Car and Stage Horses—Sev- eral Valuable Trotting Horses Dead. Yesterday morning the horses in the streets had amuch healthier appearance, and, judging from the general report, New York has seen the worst of the epizootiy. There are certainly horses dying every day in the city, but in the most instances they appear to be animals that have become afflicted with the dropsy. ‘This new feature of the disease has many very alarming symptoms and has proved fatal in numbers of instances, Jt appears to be the result of a cessation of the circulation of blood, which, getting clogged up in the arteries, causes an IMMENSE SWELLING in the head and timba, one of the main symptoms ofthe malady, A horse that exhibited these «yap toms yesterday had leeches applied to tum, andin | ashort time the leeches dropped Of Geutl, showing the poisoned condition of the blood. A well-known velleved ner: 4 he veterinary surgeon said ye: the doses of aconite that ally administered have the dropsy. Aconite has a tendency to quick the Pulsation of the heart and thereby stopping the forcing of the blood throngh the arteries, causes: it to settle, and results in these dropsical swe ings, He said that out of a thousand horses us had treated not one case had turned into dropsay. He also mentiongd & bad case of dropsy which he was cailed in to.see on Friday morning, and in which instance he administered a pill containing iron with the most beneficial results, THE JAPANESE CONSUL in this city appears to have paid considerable at- tention to the progress of the epizooty Eprom hous the country, and finally became so impressed with its importance that he engaged Dr, J. 8. Cattanach, @ well-known veterinary surgeon, to write hi opinions of the disease and the best means of pre- caution and cure tu be adopted, in case the maludy should break out in Japin, This article is to be ont over to Japan to be published in the journala of that country, In the diferent car stabled the horses pbear {0 ve jmprgvin steadily and gaining strength and condition. Ever’ means fre being taken to strengthen the unfor- tunate animals, so that they may ie ready for the heavy work through the snow. ‘They are still kept on soit diet, such as chopped hay, which is gen- erally given in @ mash, with some prepared com- pound food of a vegetable nature, mixed {a to act day th asatonic. The Third Avenue stables appear to have been the greatest sutterers during the disease, as they are reported to have lost over thirty horses. The Second Avenue have e: with very few losses, and the Fourth avenue line state that they have lost seven horses. The Sixth avenue line have lost altogether twenty-one horses, three of which died with dropsy. The superinten- dent of that line states that they have had several cases of dropso, and have cured several of the worst, The Eighth, Ninth and Tenth avenue lines have been tolerably fortunate in escaping many losses, and the Broadway and Seventh avenue line add about eleven to the death roll. THE STAGE LINES appear on the whole to have had rather a rough time of it. The Fourth avenue stage horses are rapidly getting into condition, and the foreman says they have only lost six hors They had sev- eral cases of dropsy, but did not lose a horse from that branch of the disease. The Madison avenue line have lost about fifteen horses, aud the Fiith avenue and Twenty-third street stages are also sullerers to a considerable extent. ‘THE TROTTING STOCK have nearly all been aflicted with the disease, and there are some very valuable trotters sick with the dropsy. Commodore Vanderbilt's celebrated trotter Mountain Boy died on Friday. There appears, however, to be a difference of opinion as whether this well known horse succumbed to the effects of cholic or the prevailing epizooty. Mountain Boy ‘was one of the best trotting horses in the country, having made his mile in 2:204%%. Lottery, owned by Mr. Samuel ‘Truesdell, well known as a hol got by old Hambiectonian, died ye ‘day of the disease. Western New York, a trotter that has made his mile in 2:29, owned by Mr. Dennison, has, like Dreadnaught, from Patterson's stable, succumb- ed to the disease. It was aiso reported that G. L. Fox, a dun trotter, the property of Mr. Meserole, died yesterday. There are also a number of other valuable horses whose lives are in a precarious. condition. The fall of snow and consequent bad travelling on the different railroads affected trafitc consider- ably last evening, as the car lines did not like running their convalescent horses in the bad weather. The Third and Fourth avenue lines took off a number of their cars last night, much to the inconvenience of the numerous housekeepers who were down town doing their Saturday night mar- keting. = Tse, HORSE NOTES. Mr. Samuel Truesdell’s gray trotting gelding Lottery died yesterday morning. He was sired by Hambletonian, dam by Vermont Morgan. He was nine years old last May. Lottery was fifteen hands three inches high, of a mottled gray color finely formed and possessed of grand trotting action. He was prepared for the turf in the Spring of 18il, by Dan Pfifer, and trotted several races during that year, showing great endurance in all his contests. During last Summer he trotted in all the principal purses for horses that had never beaten , and showed that he was an improv ing horse, and gave promise of getting very low in the twenties. He had a record of 2:27. He was valued at $15,000, Lottery died of dropsy, having, as it ‘was supposed, recovered from the epizootic dis- ease. The dropsy set in on Thursday, and he sank afterwards very rapidly. Commodore Vanderbilt’s horse, Mountain Boy, died on Friday, of lung fever. Mountain Boy was a bay gelding, not quite fifteen hands high. He was foaled in 1860: sired by Mr. Bonner’s stallion Ed- ward Everett, his dam being by Gridley’s Roebuck, ason of Blackbird. He was bred in Orange county, New York. Edward Everett (late Major Winfield] isa bay horse, foaled in 1855; got by Rysdyk’s Ham- bletonian; dam said to be by imported Margrave; ‘anddam by Trumpator, le was bred by A. Lil- furn, Orange county, New York, who sold him in 1869 to Robert Bonner. Mountain Boy was a very fast horse; as fast, prebably, as far as he could LH as any horse that ever appeared on the turf. He trotted several races and beat the famous Lady Thorn at Staten Island, Waverley and Saratoga. ‘The betting at Tattersall’s on Monday, November 4,on the Liverpool Cup, was as follows:—5 to1 against Mornington, 4 years, 7st. 8lb.

When the announcement of Donnellan’s death was made fo Doris in his cell at Police Headquarters yesterday he betrayed no emotion. The same dogged stubbornness and the same cool determination to meet the consequences like a man—in short, to be what criminals term ieee were but too apparent. When taken re Justice Keese, however, some of his pluck deserted him. He rested his head be- tween his hands, leaning on his knees, and fixed his eyes on the ground. In answer to the questions put to him he stated that he was a native of Ireland, twenty-five years of age, unmarried, and a bartender by oceupation. He was handcutted and taken under a strong es- cort to the County Jail. ‘The wound which sent Donnelian to his grave is asingular one, The bullet penetrated the cavity of the abdomen and the intestines thirteen inches in a direct line, until it reached the spinal column, thence it passed upwards, transversely, and finally lodged itself in the lower tu {the left lung.
