On 'Change to-day cotton was in moderate de- mmand and steady. Flour was firm, while wheat ‘and corn were somewhat better. THE DRY GOODS IMPORTS. The total imports of foreign dry goods at the port of New York for the week ending January 30, 1873, were of the specie value of $3,411,220. The mount marketed during the same period was ‘$3,466,590. The imports show a falling off of nearly @ million dollars a8 compared with the previous week, THE FOREIGN MARKET. ‘The London quotations show a sharp advance in 1678, which have risen 3g per cent to 93%, and an improvement of % in the new fives. Consols came steady and quoted the same for money and the ac- court, the eyualization being due to the near ap- proach of settling day, which will be February 4. Erie shares were strong, and advanced 13% per cent, closing at 53, equivalent in our currency to 66%. MONEY ACTIVE. The money market, which was steady at 7 per ent on stock collaterals and 6 a 7 per cent on gov- ‘ernment securities during the greater portion of the day,, became quite active toward the close of banking hours, the rate in the dealings on the side” ‘walk advancing to 1-32, with a few transactions at 1-32 ‘and interest.” ‘The rate at three o'clock was ‘@xactly 1-32, subsequent to which hour money con- tinued to be offered at 1-32, with 7 per cent coin bid for it. THE INCREASED DEMAND ‘was credited to the payments this afternoon for the government gold bought the previous day, and was probably accelerated for effect at the Stock Exchange, At least such was the explanation given in view of the easy feeling prevailing up to as late as two o’clock. Commercial paper was quoted 8 a 9 per cent discount for prime names, foreign exchange was weaker, but nominally the same as to rates at the desk, Prime sixty-day sterling bills were done at 109} and sight at 11014. The sixty-day bills were generally believed to have been borrowed against pledge of stock collaterals and sold for account of the borrowers. GOLD LOWER—113% a 1133. In the gold market the result for the day was a decline of 3 per cent—say from 113% to 11334. The decline was started by the advance of the ‘67's in the London market, and was assisted by the subsequent weakness of foreign exchange, the closing sales at 1133; being the further conse- quence of the Custom House return showing a falling off in the dry goods imports and implying a corresponding decrease in the general imports for the past week, the full report of which will be made by the Custom House to-morrow. The prose pective success of the Syndicate in negotiating the remainder of the new five per cents also helped the weaker temper of the market. The course of the market is shown in the table :— GOLD FLUCTUATIONS, &C. 113% a 113% In the gold loan market the rates ranged from 6 per cent for carrying to flat for borrowing. The operations of the Gold Exchange Bank were as fol- tows :— Gold cleared... sold balances. .

Tre government list was strong early in the day, With sales of the '67’s at 1167, but fell off a fraction with the subsequent decline in gold, but in a less ratio, the market closing firm, The new fives held their own at 115%, with gold at 113%, 80 that aiter 4n allowance of 13 for the February coupon they stood at a premium of % in gold.

THE RAILROAD BONDS. In the railroad bonds the chief feature was a re- covery in Union Pacific incomes to 76, laud grants to 7744 and firsts to 87. The general list was steady and firm.

A volunteer correspondent telegraphs us from Texas that the Attorney General of that State has filed a caveat against the issue of bonds by the Texas Pacific Railroad, on the ground of alleged use of fraud and bribery in the procuration of the passage of the bill, The following were the closing quotations :—Tennessee, €x coupon, 62% a 83; do., new, 82% 8 83; Virgimia, ex coupon, 49 a 50; do., registered stock, old, 3% #40; do. sixes, con- solidated bends, 55% a 56%; do. sixes, deferred scrip, 14a 1434; Georgia sixes, 75 a 80; do. sevens, 90 a 93; North Carolina, ex coupon, 34 a 3445; do., to Nortn Carolina Railroad, 59 a 61; do., funding, 1866, 24227; do. do., 1868, 22a 25; do., new, 16a 1634; do., special tax, 13.415; Missouri sixes, 93 a 9314; do,, Hannibal and St. Joseph, 90 a 9014; Louisiana sixes, 50855; do., new, 4550; do, levee sixes, 60a 70; do. do. eights, 50a 70; do. do, eights, 1875, 60a 70; Alabama fives, 57.62; do. eights, 84a 87; South Carolina sixes, 40845; do., new, January and July, 2234 a 22% ; do. do., April and October, 25a 26; Arkansas sixes, funded, 35 a 42, STOCKS DULL AND STRONG, The stock market was strong at the early board, when a moderate degree of activity was imparted to the list by the example of Pacific Mall, which advanced smartly from 72% to 74% on the an- nouncement that the steamer Alaska had arrived safely at Hong Kong, which port she reached on the 26th inst. In this furry Erie, sympathizing with the London quotations, advanced to 66%, while West- ern Union made further progress to 85%. In the case of Union Pacific an impression that Congres- sional legislation had done its werst caused an im- provement to 36%. The speculation in Ohios took @ reverse course and effected an advance in the stock to 48%. After midday the market became quiet and dull, and prices toward the close receded ‘a 4 percent from the highest figures, leaving off steady. In Pacific Mail THE REACTON was 1a1% per cent, the advance having indaced & good deal of realization. The recent rise in O., 0. and I, C, is attributable to the completion of the Chesapeake and Ohio Ratlroad, with which it will form the eventual extension between Columbus and Chicago, when the link in the line between Columbus and the Ohio River has been built. New Jersey Central sold at 105% and Lackawanna was Steady at 101. The announcement is made from Trenton that in the case of the Delaware, Lacka- wanna and Western Railroad Company against the New Jersey Central, the Vice Chancellor of New Jersey has enjoined the Central road from taking up the third rail on their road, or in any wise in- terfering with the use of their broad gauge track in connection with the Lackawanna Railroad, and has ordered the Central to continue to transport the coal of the Lackawanna Company in broad gauge cars as heretofore. In the mining shares Quicksilver preferred advanced to 58%, but new Mariposa was heavy and lower at 22% 822%. In the miscellaneous railways Atlantic and Pacific declined to 36%.

THE HERALD ALMANAC. This work, now in the second year of its publica- tion, is in the full sense of its title—“HeRaLp Alma- nac and Financial, Commercial and Political Regis- ter’’—all that it purports to be—a work tncompar- able for the value of the information it contains under the headings of specialties. The subjects thus treated of, combined with the information naturally looked tor in almanac literature, en- hance its value tar beyond the price of the book, which is set down at less than ordinary almanac prices, and render it, under its head of Finance, Commerce and Politics, a most valuable work of reference on these subjects, and not only in the present, but to be preserved and consulted by the banker, the broker, the business man antl the politician in the time to come. To all doing business in gold, governments, miscellaneous stocks, State bonds, railroad stocks and other securities and in the produce market, one glance at the pages devoted to statistics under these heads will at once attest its value as a compilation comprehensive and reliable, and, in fact, necessary to all persons engaged in any of the pursuits enumerated. The HERALD Almanac has other specialties, and presents throughout its 250 pages @ continuous succession of information unobtain- able in any other work, and which has been Specially collated and condensed for the HERALD Almanac. It is sold by all newsdealers throughout the United States at the nominal price of twenty- five cents, SALES AT THE NEW YORK STOOK EXCHANGE. Friday, Jan. 31—10:15 A.

THURSDAY, Jan. 31~6 P. M. The merchandise markets were generally very Quiet, but, as a general rule. firm, There was scarcely any pressare to sell, and transactions were in almost all cases at full prices. There was no movement in breadstuffs for export, but with small supplies and some evidences of @ speculative movement on Western account within @ day oF two, the market was stronger, though but little was done, and all the purchases were on avcount of the local milling interest. The ex- treme diMeculty of negotiating freight engage- ments tends to check shipments of grain, in view of which business from day to day continues to be greatly circumscribed, Corn was sought after to some extent, but choice parcels were held so firm ato check the inquiry materially, and business was small. Oats were fairly active and firm. Whiskey was a trife easier at the commencement of business, but closed firm, with the decline recov- ered. There was but little done, comparatively, in provisions, and both perk and lard tended in favor of the buyer at the close. Freights were firm, with ascarcity of room, and charter rates were about the same, There was very little business in gro- ceries, but no change was perceptible in prices, Petroleum ruled quiet and weak. Naval stores, under unfavorable advices, were easier. Meat was quiet, but firm, and the same remark will apply to metals, Asuxs.—Receipts for the past three days, 13 packages, The market has shown no change, continuing quiet, with sales of pots only in a jobbing way, quoted at $8 50, Pearls nominal.
