On ’Change to-day cotton “on the spot’ was dull, while for future delivery transactions were light at a decline of + a 2c. per Ib, Flour was ‘quiet, but firmer. Wheat was steady, and corn ‘active and firmer. EXPORTS. Our outward flow of produce continues to 6x- hibit its favorable contrast with that of preceding months and years. For the week ending to-day ‘the export trade shows an aggregate in domestic produce and merchandise of $5,725,915 in mixed Values against $4,395,843 in 1872, and $4,976,521 in 1871. The total exports from January 1 to date are $134,640,920 against $101,833,340 in 1872, and $110,- 591,091 in 1871, In contemplating these figures it is always to be borne in mind that two-thirds of the imports of the country come direct to New York and are re- ported, while on the other hand fully three-fifths of the exports are distributed along the coast, and ‘enter only into the general statement made through the department at Washington. Hence the full value must be measured from week to ‘week by the proportions above mentioned. THE COTTON ESTIMATE, ‘The official report of the Agricultural Bureau ‘shows an average increase of cotton acreage over ast year of nearly 12 per cent. The present condi- ‘tion of the crops stands as follows:—Florida, 2 per ©ent above the annual average. ll the others fall Delow—viz., Virginia and Alabama, 7 per cent; North Carolina, 15 per cent; South Carolina, 12 ‘per cent; Georgia and Louisiana, 6 per cent; Mis- sissippi and Arkansas, 8 per cent; Texas, 14 per. cent, and Tennessee, 10 per cent. The acreage cultivated will fall considerably be- jow that planted. The weather generally during ‘the last week in May was favorable, and there was Hopeful prospect that the condition of the crop would rapidly improve. Worms and caterpillars have made an early appearance at varioy points, and cre causing considerable apprehension of de~ structive ravages. No estimate of the crop is made, THE WHEAT CRor, ‘The oficial report of the Agricultural Bureau on the wheat crop shows a large increased acreage Dver last year, with good prospect for more than ‘aD average yield per acre. THE FOREIGN MARKET. London advices report money and discounts steady at yesterday's prices. Consols for money were quoted at 924% a 92%, for account at 92% a 923g; bonds of the issue of 1867 at 9234 a 9214, ten- torticc at 8834, new fives at 89%, Eries at 49%, Qiinojs Central at 85, The new French loan con- tinues at the premium of 6% per cent. In Paris ventes were 56,20; and in Frankfort bonds of 1862 were quoted at 96\. THE MONEY MARKET Presents no important change. Borrowers with the usual collateral security on call are supplied at 4a per cent, and prime mercantile paper matur- ing in the Fall commands 6 a7 per cent. Asa con. sequence of the July disbursements it is not im- probable that during the latter days of the month money will be a trife higher for the moment. Ex- change has hardened for sixty days sterling, and # now 109%, the rate for demand remaining 110%. tm other particulars former quotations are un- arco GOLD 11555 A 11524. AS a sequence of London advices, as well perhaps of the report of the Agricultural Bureau concern- ing the disappointment in the cotton crop, gold was stronger to-day, although it seems strange that any rise should take place just at the present juncture, unless there be some propelling personal power bebind. Opinions are not se thoroughly antago- mistic as to the course of gold hereafter as one would suppose, The vest informed claim to have Bnticipated the present and even a lower figure, but at the same time they express the belief that certain speculative agencies are at work, which, in Spite of ali governmental, commercial or local in- Muences which may be exerted, will have the effect” of materially advancing the price later in the Beason.

The bulk of transactions was made at the first board, where the heaviest pounding took place, but later there was slight recovery. The largest depression was in Delaware, Lackawanna and Western, which began work at 97% and went off to 96, with a closing rally of 34 per cent. Western Union opened at 85, and fluctuated about % per cent, closing at 84%.

Lake Shore declined from 9234 to 92, but recovered to the opening figure. Union Pacific was a feature of speculation at 24, 23% @ 2334, with a subsequent rally to 24/4. North- western common was more active than it has been for several days, opening at 72 and sustaining a fright which slowly drove it down to 714. St, Paul opened at 50% and fell off about 4 per cent, c., C. and L C, suffered a similar decline. Ohio and Mississipp1 held its own, opening at 38, declining 4 per cent, but finally recovering to 38%.

MEMORANDA. An adjourned meeting of the North Carolina bondholders will be held to-morrow (Wednesday) at three P. M., at No. 35 Wall street, for the purpose of further considering the legal measures neces- sary to enforce the payment of the interest due on the North Carolina bonds. It is understood that about eight hundred thousand dollars’ are repre- sented in this new “syndicate.” The new rooms of the Importers and Grocers’ Board of Trade, at the corner of Wall and Water streets, were formally opened this afternoon. An address was delivered by Mr. William A, Booth, the President, who reviewed the history of the organization since its establishment, in 1871, and the results that have been achieved through this agency. The establishment ct a new line of steamers be- tween Norfolk and New York is being discussed, the chief object of the undertaking being the en- largement of commercial facilities between the two ports in the matter of conveying farm produce, Ata meeting of the Atlantic and Pucttic Railroad Company hela to-day the following Board of Di- rectors was elected:—Oliver Ames, North Easton, Mass. ; QOzias Bailey, White Cloud, Kan.; Frederick Billings, Woodstock, Vt.; E. F. Bishop, Bridge- port, Conn.; William H. Coffin, New York; Uriel Crocker, Boston, Mass.; George 8, Curtis, Bos- ton, Mass.; W. R. Garrison, New York; Francis B. Hayes, Boston, Mass.; Charles J. Morrill, Bos- ton, Mass.; Andrew Pierce, Jr., New York; Joseph Seligman, New york; Andrew Y. Stout, New York. A very decided feeling exists among the direc- tors of the Pacific Mat! Company with reference to the importance of screw instead of side- wheel steamers as profitable adjuncts of their line, Experience is demonstrating even now that the company cannot suc- cessfully compete with the opposition that has been established on the Pacific coast by English screw steamers, and the only remedy existing ts to place the marine of the company upon such a foot- ing as will forbid competition and compel success, Owing to the absence of certain oMicials of the com- pany no action was taken to-day, but it is said that among the enterprising members of {he direction there is au earnest and energetic desire to develop | the fullest resources of thé company, place it upon a healthy basis, and, if necessary, issue additiona, bonds to give strength to the present fabric. An- other meeting will be held on Thursday next for the purpose of discussing the subject more in detail. The annual report of the operations of the Chi- cago, Rock Island and Pacific Railroad has been published, The gross receipts from all sources, in- cluding earnings, interest on joans, premiums, ke, were $6, expenses, $3,517,783, leaving the net earnings From this sum there has been paid interest on bonded debt, dividends, &c., $2,266,514, Which leaves @ surplus of $872,653, To this sum is added balance of income account April | 1, 1872, to wit, $8,717,050, which makes the pres- ent balance of income account as reported $4,580,688, The report contains the following items of general information:— The Land Commissioner reports st 8 Of 16,591 54-100 acres, realizing the sum of $126,775 43, aver. | aging $3 40 per acre, except for a few hundred acres of doubtfal title that were quit-gaimed, The iow prices which have ruled for produce in the West, and especially for corn, have materially diminished sales and collections, but the settle. ment of tue country a the line of the com- pany’s railroad on the Missouri slope has made considerable progress during the past season and ‘ a i ood deal of prairie has been broken. he value of the property has been enhanced by the substitution of additional steel rails in place of iron, permamemt masonry and tron bridges tor Wooden structures, increased side tracks and depot facilities, anda general improvement in the "| permanency and smoothness of the roadbed and ‘The new bridge across the Mississippi River at Rock Island, built under direction of the United States government, but owned in part by this company, was oreee into general use in October last, effecting considerable saving in time and ex- mang of crossing trains as compared ‘With the old Some worthy gentleman may be indncea to an- alyze this revort a ltie more Closely bercafter, SALES AT THE NEW YORE STOOK EXCHANGE, Tuesday, June 24—10115 A.

TUESDAY, June 24—6 P. M. The trades movement was slow, and the markets in some cases were decidedly irreguiar.
