Government Bonds Strong—The Cotton -and Specie’ Movements—A Tum- ble in New Mariposa. WALL STREET, } Sarurpay, Feb. 15—6 P. Mt, ‘Om Change to-day cotton was dull and nominal “for lots on the spot, but in moderate demand for ‘futures, at 1-16c. to %c. per Ib. improvement. Re- ‘eeipts at the ports to-day 17,210 bales. Flour re- mained dull, butprices were not quotably changed, ‘Wheat and corn were also dull. THE IMPORTS OF THE WEEK. The total imports of foreign goods at this port during the past week wero $11,364,363, made up of $5,095,845 of dry goods and $6,268,523 of gencral merchandise. This is the largest weekly importa- tion of the season, and about the third largest in the history of our foreign trade. "THE COTTON MOVEMENT. ‘The receipts of cotton at allthe ports for the past week were 122,052 bales, against 126,521 bales «the previous week. The total receipts since Sep- *tember 1, 1872, are 2,501,568 bales, against 2,091,196 forthe same period of last year, showing an in- «creage in THE PRESENT CROP + of 410;872 bales. The exports from all the ports for the week were 123,159 bales, against 76,459 last ‘year. The total exports for the expired portion of vthe cotton year are 1,451,967 bales, against 1,152,074 last year. The.stock at all the ports is 563,088 bales, sagainst 574,939 at the same dato in 1872, MONEY ACTIVE. The money market was active at a concession of 1-64 a 1-32, in addition to 7 per cent until after two o'clock, when tle usual Saturday relaxation oc- ‘cured, and loans were made at as low as 3 per ‘cent. Before three o’clock a fresh demand carried ‘the rates up to 6 a 7 per cent again, Mercantile paper was neglected and quoted 8410 per cent discount. Foreign exchange was steady and dullon the basis of 109 for prime bankers’ sixty day sterliag and 110 for sight*bills, THE BANK STATEMENT. For the third time in their history and the first ‘at this season of the year, when moncy usually is abundant at this centre, the banks are below the ue of their legal reserve, the deficit being $1,209,000. The reason of this is scen in the bank ‘*tatement for the past week, which.sbows a loss of nearly five millions in reserve against a decrease of less than six miilions in liabilities. The loss on feserve is made up of a nearly equal loss in specie @nd legal tenders, both of which, furthermore, are falling averages, so that the banks are really poorer than represented in the statement. The decrease of two and a half millions in specie is re- .ferable to the heavy payments for customs during ‘the week, even without the suspected LOCKING UP OF GOLD ‘by the clique in the Gold Room. The outflow of urrency to the West is reflected in the decrease in degal tenders,in which item there 1s quite proba- ‘bly a locking up movement also by speculative combinations whose intentions were detected and fevealed to the public by the Heap early in the past week. The contraction in loans is about two and a half millions, whicn is probably a rising aver- age, as the banks began to take in sail only when “they discovered the sudden INROAD ON THEIR RESERVES. The statement compares with its predecesser of fast week as follows:— Feb, & Feb. 15. + $293,939,000 $291,520,71 19,035,400 16,461,000 27,520,600 27,539,300 220,299,200 214,613,400 45,107,700 42,778,300 —The changes being in detail as tollows:— Decrease in loans. Decrease in specie. dncrei Decrease in deposits . ‘Decrease in legal tenders... An analysis of the above figures shows that the ‘banks now hold $1,299,000 less than the reserve re- «quired by law, a decrease for the week of $3,487,150. THE FOREIGN MARKET. The London quotations were firmer for consols and unaltered for Uuited States bonds. Erie shares ‘were steady at an improvement of x per cent, their quotation closing at 513,, equivalent to about +@4% in our currency. , GOLD STRONG—114% A 114%. The gold market was only moderately steady in ‘the forenoon, the supporting efforts of the clique being fully taxed to keep the market from yielding under heayy jizations on the part of outside gellers. With the specie decrease in the bank state- taent the tone of the market changed quite sud- -denly, and the price advanced to 114%. The amount -@f gold in the pool is reported at not less than ‘twenty million dollars. The specie export to-day “was $333,000, inclusive of $55,000 gold, and for the “week $759,000. The Sub-Treasury paid out $115,000 on account of interest, and $3,500 on accotnt of REDEEMED FIVE-TWENTIES.

STOCKS WEAK AND LOWER. The stock market, except during the first half hour or so of business, when the exceptional strength of Lake Shore and Western Union ad- vanced these specialties to 97% and 89 respec- tively, Was weak on an early foreknowledge of the bank statement by parties who had made ita point to anticipate its character, and steadily de- clined an average of about one per cent, the last being the lowest prices of the day, the actual ap- pearance of the bank statement exerting its nor- malinfuence of depression instead of being fol- lowed by the somewhat illogical, but usual, reac- tion, In this case, however, the statement was 60 much worse than bad been expected that it ap- peared not to have been discounted sufiiciently, for the market centinued on its downward course at A SPEEDIER RATR and was arrested only by the clatter of the ad- journing gong. The chief decline of the day was Pacific Mail, which, in addition to suffering with the general list, was further depressed by a vague rumor of another lost steamer, and fell te 72%. Erie disregarded the London quotation and went off fo 6344. Lake Shore receded to 964, Western Union to 8744 and New York Central to 1027. Lackawanna was heavy and lower at 1023 on the circulation of statements that lawyers express the opinion that the proposed legislative enactment legalizing the consoiidation of the road with the New Jersey Central is not constitutional, and if passed will have no force. The shares of the new Mariposa company fell to 16, The Chicago and Alton Railroad Company have declared a cash dividend of 5 per cent. The Southern State bonds were dall. nessees were better and steady at 79. sixes were heavy and declined to 044. HIGHEST AND LOWEST PRICES.

HIGHWAY ROBBERY IN BROOKLYN, Last evening Thomas O’Brien, a stevedore, re- siding at 88 Dikeman street, South Brooklyn, went into the liquor saloon of Moses Bulyer, corner of Van Brunt and Degraw streets, for the purpose of paying of some of his men, There were two fel- jows in the place at the time. These worthies cast covetuous glances at the greenbacks which o’Brien displayed. They both left the store toge ther, and O’Brien having discharged his indebtedness to his workmen — took his departure. Searcely had he reached the sidewalk, however, when he received a blow on th side of the head from a stone or a brick, whi sent him reeling and stunned into a snow bank. One of the chaps who had left the saloon just before him made a grab tor a roll of bills, $52, which O’Brien had in his hand. The victim managed to hojd of his money, but the rumMfan comrade of first robber kicked the stevedore’s hand loose from the money, and then both of around the corner.

Ca: ATTEMPT TO BURN A BROOKLYN TE&NE- MENT, About eight o’clock on Wednesday evening last an attempt was made to burn a two-story frame tenement house, No. 399 Baltic street, occupied by six families, consisting of twenty persons. It ap- pears by the investigation of Fire Marshal Keady that a bundle of straw was placed against a board partition im the cellar of the house, the boards being thoroughly saturated with Kerosene oil, and the whole of this inflammable material was then ignited. Some of the inmates detected the smoke, but were unable to locate the fire, and so retired for the night. ‘Their escape from a horrible death was providen- tial. The whole of the wooden partition in the cel- lar was consumed, but the flames did not pene- trate the floor. The discovery of the narrow es- cape from destruction was not made until the fol- lowing day. The Fire Marshal is pushing investi- gation in quest of the human flend who could thus ruthlessly seek to sacrifice the lives of the Inmates. « SPOTTED FEVER IN NEW JERSEY. One Family Loses Four Children Suc- cossively—Another Family Three. That terrible disease, spotted fever, appears to be making terrible havoc in the central portion of New Jersey. just as has smallpox in the nortk- eastern section. A little son of Mr. James Ryan, residing at Millstone, near New Brunswick, came home from “sieding” the other evening. He had headache and vomited. On the same night he died.” An elder brother was taken with similar symp- toms the same night, and died in the morn- ing. A couple of cofins were sent for, but be- fore they arrived two more of the children were prostrated, and soon four coffins instead of two were needed. A fifth and only remaining child seems to have escaped. ‘Two doctors pronounced the disease spotted fever. In Burlington county, some time before, a young man named Reilly died from a virulent attack of supposed measles. A second child died in like manner and a third next; a married daughter, resident in Camden, who had come on to help nurse her brothers. It is believed that the Reilly family was also despoiled by spot- ted fever, and not measles. + -@ MARRIAGES AND DEATHS. Married. FLURS—HEYDEMANN.—On Thursday, January 23, by the Rev. W, H.
