FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, | The Wall Street Markets Aftor the Boston Fire. “NOT SO MUCH OF A SHOWER.” The “Bulls” See the Advent of the Speculative Millennium. ithe “Bears” Believe “the Boston Panic” Is Yet to Come. BATURDAY’S BANK STATEMENT. @he Surplus Reserve Down to $2,290,825, ‘Movement of North Carolina Bondholdors for a Compromise of Their Claims and Resumption of Interest Pay- ments by the State. Sunvay, Nov. 17, 1872. A week ago to-night the community were Bhrilled with the news of the great conflagration pt Boston, an@ thousands of throbbing brains waited anxiously the morrow and the issue upon ihe Stock Exchange, tho gold and money markets \d the trade and prosperity of the country. Like very expected calamity the result proved dispro- rtionate to the fears so entertained. The shock ‘as lighter than the coolest fancied it could prove, and now that the week has gone by the great sea aes street is ascalm and quiet as though its ters had not been so lately and so violently agi- fated. Indeed, the “Boston panic” was all over before noon on Monday, while ant THE CHICAGO PANIC Aragged its desolating existence over a period of a Bood Portion of a weck. The experience of the “break” on Monday came at a happy time for the host of Wall street speculators who had been seck- jing to impart animation to the stock market and alist popular interest. The comparative strength of prices in such adverse circumstances embold- ‘ened the many cliques and combinations operating for a rise and has given a fair show of plausibility ito their several arguments. On the other hand, AN INGENIOUS THEORY | Yhas been advanced by the operators for a decline feo the effect that “the Boston pantie” is yet to ome; that the interval of Sunday gave everybody terested in stocks a chance to brace up against isaster, and hence the briefness of “the break” londay morning. With all the logic of the posi- ra held by the “bulls,” and the seeming weizht pf arguments on their side, there is a surprisingly de feeling that the market is about to decline, ind the ‘‘bears”’ are 80 many that they must almost equal the “bulls”? in number. Tnis is good for both jpides, ‘The “bulls” always profess their liking for - : A BIG SHORT INTEREST, pnd the “bears’’ want somebody to sell them stocks when a tumble in prices runs away with margins, The reaction from the sudden decline in the first few hours of business on Monday led to a rise rang- ing from 4 to 8 per cent, the profits of which to fhose who had bought for a quick turn induced a good deal of realizing in the middle of the week and @ fresh encouragement of the hopes of the ‘operators for a fall. By Saturday a second upward movement ensued, attended by a new + SPECULATION IN ERIE ‘which is sald to have its ramifications in the foreign market, and the closing hours of the week wit- nessed @ strong market, especially as the bank ‘Statement proved much more favorable than was anticipated. The firmer tendency at the close was also helped by the gradual relaxation of the money market, which from % per cent on Monday fell off jto 4per cent by three o’clock Saturday. This latter yate was, of course, exceptional, for money earlier in the day on Saturday had been worth as much as 1-16, but WALL STREET, } a THE ARGUMENT ‘fs fair that if the rate could decline to 4 per cent at three o'clock the other rate was too high at jtwo o'clock. While the Boston fire has really perved the immediate monetary interests of many yf our dry goods houses mercantile paper has been low of sale and only at heavy rates of discount, prime names having passed at one per cent per ith. Foreign exchange was weaker under the Arawing at first-of bills, to prepare for the liquida- Mion of English insurance losses at Boston, and Jater of bills against exports of our five-twenty fonds, whieh have been in fresh request in the foreign market and in Germany more particularly. Qurthermore the “s BANK OF EXGLAND. i idid not advance the discount rate on Thursday, s that gold fell off from 114% to 113; but later in the week, under clique manipulation and a fear of a Bqueeze of cash gold, advanced to 1135f a 113%, fwhich was the closing quotation Saturday evening. |The suspensions occasioned by the fire panic were mine in number, most of them or small brokers. The larger firms resumed ina day or two, paying all claims in full with interest, and Mr. 8, V. White, the largest of them, on Saturday, the return of ‘which gentleman to the Board was made the occa- sion of quite a handshaking festival among the amembers, * GOVERNMENT BONDS, The government list deciined on Monday about \% ax per cent for the five-twenties and about 1 per cent for the currency issues, but during the course of the week more than recovered the fall in ‘tthe gold bonds and a portion of the decline in the cur- rency bonds, the market closing strong as follows :— ‘United States currency sixes, 11314 a 11314; do. do., 1831, registered, 11544 @ 116; do. do., coupon, 116% a 117; do. five-twenties, registered, May and No- vember, 1123 @ 112%; do. do., 1862, coupon, do., 11234 a 112%; do. do,, 1864, do. do., 1124 a 112%; do. 0., 1865, do. do., 112% a 11314; do. do., 1867, regis- tered, January and July, 115% 011514; do. do., 1865, coupon, 114% & 11534; do, do., 1867, do. do., 115% & 115%; do, do., 1868, do. do., 11534 @ 115}g; do. ten-forties, registered, 108% a 10834; do. do., Coupon, 108%; a 108%; do. fives of 1881, registered, 10934 & 110; do. do., coupon, 109% a 110, SOUTHERN SECURITIES, The Southern list was less affected by the excite- Ment at the Stock Exchange than might have ‘veen believed, The dealings were confined to the Tennessees, Virginias and North and South Caro- linas.

Wednesd: THE BANK STATEMENT, The weekly statement of tie associated banks, while unfavorable, was 60 much better than what was expected that it was regarded almost as a good one. The more surprising feature is a smali gain of specie, instead of the large loss that was antici- Dated a8 o consequence of the specie export of about $3,000,000 during the week. The explanation of this gain lies in the steady and large disburee- ments of gold in payment of November intcrest and redemption of the called five-twenties, which, with the million sold by the Sut. -Treasury, were More than enough te counterbalance 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 @ falling average, however, and the banks would show a large docrease in specie were the statement meade up to show their condi- tion as they stand at prescnt, instead of giving the AVERAGE OF THE PAST WEEK, The loans are contracted, but to an insignificant extent, With @ lossof a million and a half legal tenders there i8 an inexplicable increase of about a miilion in deposits, the natural inference being that while the banks have shipped the greenbacks they have reccived nearly three mil- lions of national bank notes, an implied movement of the domestic exchanges not consistent with the facts during the past weck, unless, as some think, more money came here in private hands to buy goods for Boston than went away to Boston through the open channels of the banks and ex press companies. The statement compares with its predecessor as follow: Nov. 16, $270,932,000 13,590,200 27,538) : 203,405,000 Legal tenders, 48,261,000 —The changes being in detail as follows:. ase in loan © in specie. se in circulation © in deposits.

The Baltimore Sun of yesterday contains the fol- lowing :— Last night a meeting of the holders of North Caroliua State bonds resident in Baltimore was held at the ofMce of Mr, W. A. Dean, corner of Charles and Lexington streets, the object being to devise some means to give increased value to the bonded issue of the State. ‘The meeting was or- ganized by the election of William A. Hooper as President and R. W. Cox as Secretary. A gene- ral interchange of views was had, extending through some two hours. Mr. Miles White proposed the appointment of a committee of confer- ence to act in contert with bondholders of other cities in preparing a me- morial to the North Carolina Legislature to liqul- date the bonds now outstanding, amounting to from $12,000,000 to $15,000,600, Pending the motion a cail of the gentlemen present was made, and it was found that $301,000 in bonds was represented. Mr. Hooper stated that two propositions had been presented to him. One was that the State impose o larger tax levy in order to cover the State debt, and receive say one-third or one- quarter of the taxes in bonds at par value, and all persons surrendering bonds be entitled to the State’s 1ight in railroads, and thus reduce the bonded debt. Another was to fund the entire debt and issue new bonds, say at fifty years to run, the State paying two per cent on the first five years, two and a half the next five, and so on up to Bix en cent, at the same gradual increase, until the bonds matured. He Spposed any idea looking like bee and believed from information received that the State was now able to pay three r cent. The whole debt was now about 35,000,000, and if it could be reduced to say 20,000,000 he believed that the State could pay its interest promptly. If, on the other hand, the interest alone was funded, the debt remained. Mr, White suggested that the present difficulty was in the collection of the State taxes, There were large numbers of the colored people, as well as erat white people, who could not even pay the poll tax. Mr. Samuel Edmunds stated that the whole debt of the State was $29,416,000, of which about $8,000,¢90 was the old State debt, $11,000,000 was a special tax, bonds, and the balance miscellaneous. he = State possessed assets equal to about $25,000,000. _He proposed not to invite repudiation, but to memorialize the Legislature, which meets on Monday next, to at once fund the debt and issue new bonds paying three per cent. the first five ears. and graduate the interest after, so that not jess than six per cent. shall be finally paid. North Carolina does not propose this as repudiation, but her bondholders do propose it on account of her present condition, Mr, Dean thought a commitice should be ap- pointed to act upon the matter at once, and that this committee should be uninstructed as to their action. Mr. Edmunds proposed that Baltimore should act alone, without waiting for the bondholders of other cities. A series of resolutions were finally adopted to memorialize the Legislature of the State to fund the debt, to issue new bonds to mature in thirty ears, and to pay three per cent the first five years, four per cent the second five years, five per cent the ‘hira five years and six r cont thereafter until the bonds matured. The bondholders of Philadelphia and New York were also invited to co- operate with Baitimore, COMMERCIAL REPORT. Cotton Quiet and Easy: Receipts at the Ports 15,307 Bales—Fiour Steady— Wheat Better—Corn Easier—-Onats Firmer=—Pork Dall and Lower=—Lard Quiet but Firm—Groceries Quiet—Pe- troleum Dull and Nominal—Naval Stores Wceak=—Whiskey Steady, SaTuRDAY, Nov. 16—6 P. M. The trade movement has been slow during the week past, though there were accummulating in- dications on Friday and Saturday of a return of activity and buoyancy to the general merchandise marets at an early day, The fire which occurred at Boston on Sunday last was very disastrous in its consequences, and its effect was visible here, particularly in the dry goods interest, where several large failures were its immedi- ate and worst results. But apart from this no serious trouble has been felt, though great uneasiness was everywhere apparent until it was dem Onstrated that the losses would be confined almost wholly to Boston, Ou Friday there was & decidedly better feeling manifested throughout business marts here, and there was increased ac- tivity in nearly all departments of trade, while val- ues were very generally either higner or showed an advancing tendency. The export movement in breadstuils received a fresh impetus, and compara- tively large purchases of wheat wore made on foreign account on the basis of higher prices, On Saturday, as usual, there was less ac tivity, but the markets were not nearly 80 quiet as usual on the closing day of the week, a fair business being consummated both on and off ‘Change. Cotton was quictand easy. Flour was dull. Wheat was less active, but firmer. Corn was dull and heavy. Oats were firmer. Pork was lower. Lard steady, Groceries quet, but firm. Petroleum dull and Nominal and naval stores weak.

Hugh McGrath was arrested last Saturday night by an oficer of the Second precinct for stabbing Michacl Casey at his residence, 113 Water street. McGrath went to the residence of Casey and made some insulting remarks when Casey took hold of him to put him out, MeGrath then drew a knife and made a thrust at his opponent, but he received the blow upon the arm, by which a severe gash was inflicted, McGrath ‘was locked up to answer. Assessor Leich has received no intimation of the proposed consolidation of his district with the New York district. He is of the opinion that the authorities at Washington entertain no s1 in- tention, as about onc-thirtieth of the revenue tax of the county is collected at his ofce. The district embraces Brooklyn, Long Island and Staten Island, The amount collected this year will reach the figure of $4,000,000. There are twenty-two division assessors at present employed, but seven of these officials wili be discharged by the Ist of January. An inquest was held before Coroner Jones on Saturday, touching the cause of the death of Adolphe Biaggi, the young Italian, who was found shot through the heart on the corner of Park avenue and Ryerson street, on Tuesday last. The jury found that he came to his death by suicide with a pistol. The deceased, who was about twenty- one years old, was highiy educated, most respect- ably connected, and was engaged in a mercantile business in New York. His business and social prospects were bright, and no eause could be assigned by his relatives or friends jor the rash act. EXPLORATION IN ASIA. {From the London Telegraph.) A geographical mystery has been cleared up and an illusion of commerce dissipated by the explora- tions of some French travellers, whose narrative | has just been published, M. Louis de Carné started | in the Summer of 1866 from Saignon, in French | Cochin China, to track the great river of Cambodia, the Mekong, to its sources. The hope of the French Colonial Office was that this large stream, unknown, like the Salween, the Meinam and the Tonquin, might offer an available water road through Laos and Gunan to the back of China, and give to the Cochin China delta which is held by France the commerce of a second Nile or Ganges. This hopo has failed; the Mekong, which the Frenchmen traced at the cost of terrible hardships and great sacrifice of brave and valuable life, is an “tmpas- sable river,” broken at least thrice by furious cataracts and having a current against which nothing could be navigated. The discovery, pur- chased at the cost of existence by the leader of the expedition and by M. de Cav whose story is posthumously published, takes away haif the vaine of Cochin China, It is our turn to fiad out whether the great streams which have their embouchure at. oats, Mo. Bangkok and Mouimein offer any better cuance of @ backway to the Yang-tse-Kiaug, ee THE FEDERAL OFFICES, Flutter Among In‘ernal Revenue Officers Concerning Consolidation of Districts, OALVERT.—On Saturday, November 16, suddenly, Many, wile of John K.

Heretofore shipments in bond or “transportation without appraisement” to Boston was an everyday occurrence; but the merchants at the Hub are probably too poor now to pay the dutics, henee the goods are made free at this port and then shipped. The groatest activity exists in the wool market, The entire stock on hand tn the “burned district”? boing exhausted, this city has to be drawn on fora supply. Inan article on this subject published in the Imnarp of the 13th instant it was inadvertently stated that at that moment tho stock of wool in bond in thia: city was 6,000,000 pounds, whereas it should have read 16,000,000, ‘The latter figures: were obtained by our reporter from an assistant auditor of the New York Custom Mouse, aud may be accepted as offivial. STANDARD SAMPLES OF WOOL, accummulating for a great many years at the Ap- praisers’ Department, form one of the most valu- able collections in possession of the government. Assistant Appraisor Baush, who has this depart- Ment in charge, and is considered one of the best Judges of thatarticle, takes particular pride in adding constantly to his stock on hand. The ap- praisemonts of the staple depend altogether upon the samples, and the latter are made the standard to judge of entire invoices. In the Appraisers’ Department, where the large quantity of these samples is stored, there is not the slightest protec- tion from burning, although the utmost care is tuken to prevent a conflagration; yet, shouid a fire break out, no one would think of saying this insignificant-looking, yet, in reality, most valuable savings of many years sampling and necessary guide for appraisement, By the Boston fire eight cabinets of such samples Were destroyed, inflicting an irreparable damage upon the wool trade as far as government ap- pratsements and judging the standard by these specimens are concerned, To guard against a similar calamity in this city should the appraisers’ stores ever be destroyed, Mr. Baush should divide his samples store, one half in a fireproof building, and keep the other portion thereoi where his sto is at present for ily use, The limited accom: modatious of the Castom House will not admit of any additional storage to be placed therein, other- Wise the samples of Woo! might be saved there, Until Congress takes action on this matter and provides adequate puildings, at the Hattery, Which n combine all the customs departments under roof, there will always exist, so far as the public stores are concerned, & lurking danger from the fire flend, which will oniy be realized after the damage has occurred, ‘The above sug- gestions should be pondered over and duly carried out by the proper oiliciais. INTERNAL REVENUE AFFAIRS at the present moment are somewhat mixed, owing to the expected consolidation of all the collection districts throughout the county, Ac- cording to a law passed at the last session’ of Congress, making cighty-five districts out of 233, the President is co led. to take action on this subject by the Ist of January noxt. It is only a matter of speculation as to the nun of dis tricts this city will have allowed as its quota. Supervisor 8. b. Dutcher is at present in Wash- ington, and on his return the subject of consolida- tion, as far as the State of New York is cor ned (which forms his district), will no doubt have been determined upon, The internal revenue taxes in New York city have been collected very economically and promptly, and are at the same time as large @ great many entire States, The beer interest alone is suilicient to keep two collection districts actively employed, ‘The present incumbents of t oiices of Collector and Assessor are on tip-toe of expectation to learn what disposition 1s to be made of their various districts—whetler for good or for evil. ILLICIT DISTILLATION heretofore has been thought to be confined exclu- sively to the classic shades of the Filth ward in Brooklyn, commonly known as Irishtown, and it 1s a matter of surprise that the contraband manu- facture of whiskey should be carzied on in New York, Yet suchis thecase. Probably the fear of raids, such as Supervisor Dutcher has made incom- pany with United Siates marines, deters the Brooklynites from indulging in the dangerous busi- ness, and they keep up at least a show of complying with the law. A few days ago Assistant Assessor Robert Hunt, of Supervisor Dutcher’s force, achieved the feat of seizing an illicit ‘still and fixings” and the arrest of two of the operators, He learned that a nice little still was being runin Yorkville at No, 1,773 Third avenue, in a vinegar factory, Where the “vile stuf!’ was used up at once by being turned into acidity, Mr. Hunt took his bearings with caution and afew days ago pro- ceeded all alone to the “potheen mill,” and, sure enough, found the still was in full blast. ‘To rush into the place and secure the two men who were on the premises was the work of but a moment. Assessor Hunt not only landed his prisoners sale with the United States Marshal, but secured and lodged the still and accoutrements of the minia- ture distillery intact with the same authority, ANOTHER SEIZURE of the same sort, but not with so successful a re- sult, was made by the same officer a day before the last mentioned. This distillery was of a much larger capacity than the iormer, being able to turn out at least 300 gallons of liquor per day. Oillcer Hunt took possession of the establishment, located at Harlem, in the evening, and left one man in charge to guard the premises until morning. About midnight a fang of rowdies, masked and | otherwise disguised @ la K. K. K., broke into the place, intimidated the poor keeper with pistols, nives and bludgeons, while others compietely gutted the premises, carrying off the fine copper still, worm and even the fermenting tubs, thus nullifying a seizure effected with considerable risk and ingenuity. The above seizures were all effected by one officer of customs and his staff, Both stills mentioned were entirely new, having evidently been but slightly used or just put up when the revenue oiticer3s pounced upon and eradicated them at once, This course, if more commonly adopted, would do more toward breaking up contrapand distillation than all the laws and edicts enacted | since the interval revenue was inaugurated, and at the same time would save the general government | millions of dollars, which would be collected through this means. The Siriss Times states that the portation of watches from Sw jand to the ted States of America assumes larger proportions every year.
