WINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL, HE REVIEW OF THE WEEK. @ Suggestion Concerning Our Imports and Exports. s “THE VALUE OF A WEEKLY EXHIBIT, ‘The Course of Money---The Rates Some- what Stiffened. THE GOLD SPECULATION. ‘Our Railroad Bonds Strong---Their Value for Permanent Investment, THE BANK STATEMENT. ‘Stocks During the Week---Closing Prices, &c. WALL STREET, Sunpay, August 24, 1873. There are no hestions of graver importance to “fhe people at large, to the producer, consumer ‘and capitalist than those connected with our ex- ports and imports, And yet, vast as are the in- Merests involved, tnere are few topics the details -of which are so little understood as these. True, ‘we of New York are furnished, from week ®o week and month to month, with tables of walues, representing incoming and outgoing ‘realth; but, unfortunately, they concern the ‘metropolis alone, and afford no absolute data on ‘which. calculations can be based as to the actual condition of the country or its wants. The evil, fowever, is not without a remedy. The informa- tion can and ought to be obtained by the goyern- ment. Just as “OLD PROBABILITIES’? receives from his signal stations in every part of the country the daily record of the phenomena of the atmosphere, so can the Secre- tary ‘of the Treasury order the light- ning to flash from every Custom .House in the Onited States at lest once a week the amount otexports and imports that bave passed through ficial channels. Those collected in Washington may then be transmitted to the press in the same Manner that we now receive the daily currency ‘palances, and the facts they convey would constitute the most important record that emanates from the Treasury Department, be- cause they will present a bird's-eye view of the commerce of the country and its varying changes from month to month. The most NOTABLE FEATURES OF THE PAST WEEK Dave been the manifest hardening of money, the Gecline of sterling exchange and the renewed" activity in gold. The fuctuations in interest rates “on call loans have been considerable, the extremes ‘Deing 234 and 7 per cent. These rates, however, ‘were exceptional, tie bulk of business being done ‘On the basis of 4and 5 percent. The speculation fm gold has not been without its influence in this @epartment of the market; but it is confidently ‘Pelievod that FRESH CAPITAL wvill seek the street to take advantage of the ad- ‘vance. Time loans have likewise hardened during She week. They are now quoted at 6 percent for thirty days, 7 per cent for sixty days, and 7 per cent, gold, to 9 per cent for minety days and the bal- ‘nce of the year. Discounts are quoted at 6% per cent, according to date of ‘turity. Business in exchange suffered a heck in consequence of the rise in gold. The re- cepts trom customs continue to represent the ac- ‘tivity of our imports, and all the signs point ‘to a @prightly business season, many Western mer- chants being in the city to consummate tueir pur- ‘Chases. THE OF THE GOLD SPECULATION Qas necessarily created no little feverisihness in nancial circles, because of the possibility of a “squeeze” that will for the moment disturb he harmony of trade. If such be the in- fention of those who control gold it has mot yet been made public, the advance of the week having been only 1 per cent, ‘she principal rise taking place after the sale of the government gold on Thursday. The extremes were 215% @ 116%. There has been no manifestation of ‘weakness on the part of the operator, and ifit should ‘appear the remembrance of the sudden move of the preceding week, when a single broker bought eight or ten millions of dollars and turned the tide So the disadvantage of the “shorts,” will make ‘every one suspicious of another stroke of strategy. THE BANK SATEMENT. » The bank statement is unfavorable, inasmuch as ® shows a still further progress towards the mini- mum point, Last week the excess over the legal 2h per cent reserve was $0,601,200. This week it 1s Dut $6,060,175—a decrease of $2,714,025. This de- erease ts exhibited im loans, specie, circulation, de- posits and legal tenders. It 1s easy to account jer ‘the lone of specie, much of it having gone into the ‘Treasury for customs’ payments; but the move- ment in legal tenders appears to be enveloped in @ome doubt, The percentage of reserve to labill- Ges Of the national banks is 28.28, of tye State banks .80, the average being 27.72 per cent, The loans Of the banks were decreased $2,682,200 during the ‘week.

SATURDAY, August 23-6 P. M. The trade movement was much more active dur- ing last week, notiwthstanding the exceeding unpropitiousness of the weather during most of the time, andthe fall trade may at length be regarded as under full headway. The higher ruling of gold imparted a firmer feeling mm commercial circles generally, and there were namerous changes in values, in the main favorable to the seller. There was decidedly more activity in the dry goods market, and the sales were large and almost without exception at Tull prices. |, Hardware was also eagerly sought after, and the market was generally called firm. At the Produce Exchange the markets were pretty gen- erally quiet duping the earlier part of the week, particularly for breadstuffs, which were scarce, owing to a break inthe Erie Canal. Receipts from be- yond the break came im on Thursday, however, when the sales were large and at lower prices. The sales of wheat for forward delivery were large, but generally at slower prices than prevailed a week ago. Corn wasin good request «il through the week, and prices were higher for lots on the spot. Future sales were made at unchanged prices. Oats were dull and lower from day to day. Whiskey fluctuated somewhat, but on the whole ruled higher. Pork was.quiet all through the week. Freights experienced another rise, and the scarcity of treight room by sail and stcam, as well as of vessels for charter, was seriously felt. On ’Change to-day flour was dull, but values were without noticeable change. Wheat was again firmer, under Limited offerings and a fair demand. Corn was also firmer and the demand fair at the im- provement. Oats were quiet, but very firm. In the grocery trade the usual Saturday's quietness prevailed, but the markets were very strong, more particularly on coffee. Provisions were neglected and values remained bout the same. Peiroleum was nominally firmer. Naval stores were dui and nominal. Whiskey again ched $1. Feached ¥ on the spot continued fairly active at full prices. For future delivery & tair business was in pro- ress at a slight advance on the early months, the mar- et closing steady, We quote olan. Aiatama. w. Orteana Texas.

The Retrospect of Traffic—The Fature Bright and Encouraging—Suburban Property in Active Demand—The Rea- son Thereof—Sales To Be Held. There seems to be no great change m the status of real estate operations to record since last Mon- day, no active transactions of any moment having taken place. Yet there is an apparent undercur- | rent, tending towards a briskness, which must come on now in a very shorttime. During the week just closed the Exchange" looked quite de- | serted, only two small saies having been held there by Colonel James M. Miller, realizing altogether about $22,000, At private sale we have only one report, the same having been made by V. K. Ste- venson, Jr., and W. H. Raynor, consisting of a lot, 26x90, on the southwest corner of Park avenue‘and Highty-third street, for $16,000. . While city real estate traMc has been languish- ing during the reign of the dog star, suburban property has been in the most active demand, and im nearly every ipstance where an offering was made the prices realized were beyond expecta- tions, Land in the suburbs have advanced with the growth of this city, and.in many localities in greater proportions, From our reports of sub- urban and other sales it will be found that farm lands thus disposed of under the hammer, valued prior to the saie at $1,000 per acre, usually brought trom $2,600 to $3,500, as laid out im city lots. In many instances these figures were doubled. The report of the Commissioners of Taxes and Assessments shows that, since 1865, the taxable value of city property has more than doubled. In 1865 it Was $427,000,000, and im 1873 $836,000,000. During the first four years the increase was $64,000,000 per annum, aid during the last four but $38,000,000, the latter deficiency being caused by the extraordinary overflow — ulation into the ew Jersey, Long Island, Westcnester and Staten Island bas been enhanced in @ far greater proportion than in the city itself, which contains ‘t 41 per cent of the metropolitan population ‘2,500,000, while the adjacent cities in New Jersey and Long Island ex- hibic a thrist and progress that rival the most fabu- lous history of Western settiemen Although this resaithas been largely brought | about by the one-sided, or rather the negiected, legisiation of the last Legislature of this State, y the Various measures for rapid transit have been choked of or bunglingiy enacted. ting quick travelling across the island, we cannot regard itas @ misfortune, since it aided to foster the growth and prosperity of jar more healthy system of suburban life, and actually force population away (rem the city to their great advantage.

Born in the year 1767 or early in 1788,.the son of @ plain gentleman, at Highbury, and brought up at ® school in Hertfordshire, where both mathematics ‘and the physical sciences were taught, he began early to devote himself to the the theoretic stady of those subject# in the practical application of which, at @ subsequent date, he rose to such eminence. lt was as nearly as possible sixty years ago—namely, in 1518 or 18i4—thas, having made the acquaintance of M. De Luc, & French savant, then engaged in # series of electrical experiments, he became so interested in the subject that he resoived to turn his atten- tion to electricity a the serious business .of life. ‘The researches Which he made with the view of ascertuimmg the degrees of quantity and elec- tricity in the electric pile and his invention of a clock to be kept in motion by electrogalvenic power weredescribed several years ago in the pages of the Philosophical Magazine, Mr.-Ronalds also, it 18 satd, was bold enough, in 1816, to pro- pose the laying down of one of his electric tele- graphs between St. James’ Palace and. Brighton, Which at that time was the usnal residence of the Prince Regent, but was snubbed by a red-t ply from Lord Mi le and his brother Lords of the Admiralty, to the effect that the telegraph piece in use—viz., the clumsy wooden apparatus that ail lately surmounted that department in Whitehali— was quite suficient jor any existing requirements, and that no- new one was wanted. And so tha electric telegraph was “shelved” for a time, being destined to lie dormant until again it should be woke up into action, or the nation woke up to ap- preciate it, by the conjoined labors of Cooke and Wheatstone, It should, in justice to Sir Francts Ronalds, be mentioned here that a pamphlet which he gave to the world as farback as the year 1823 contamed full accounts not only of his electric tele- graph, but of an improved electric machine, ot a new mode of electrio insulation, of an electrograph for regording electric changes, and a pendwum doubler for the induction of a continued Now of elec- tricity, together with his attempt to apply M, De Lue’s column to the measurement of time, and his experimental observations on Mount Vesuvias and in Siolly. In 1825 he Invented & perspective trac- ing instrument to facilitate drawing from nature or from plans and elevations, This machine was employed by himand Dr. Blair ten years after- wards, in order to procure exact perspective pro- jections of the Celtic remains in Brittany. In 1843 he Was appointed the frat (honorary) director of the Observatory at Kew Gardens, and the duties of this post he discharged with great zeal and energy down to 1852, when he retired, obtaining at the same time a well-merited pension on the Civil List. Several years before this he had been elected a fellow of the Royal Society, in acknowl edgment of his applications 01 electrical science ; but it Was not until 1870 that the man whose labors in telegraphic investigation, as stated in his patents had been alike “early” and “remarkable,” received that small honor of knighthood, It only remains to add that to his ingenuity are due sev- eral great improvements ip instruments and meth- ods of testing and recording the vaturak phe- nomena, the atmospheric electric conductor, the photo-barograph, the photo-thermograph, | the photo-electrograph and the photo-magnetograph— all varied applications of one and the same dia- covery. He deseribed all these varions tastruments in the reports and transactions of different learned societies, and we believe that his: atmospheric electric conductor has been adopted in the ob- servatories of Greenwich, Madrid and Bombay, while his photo-barograph and photo-thermograph are in use at the Radcliffe Observatory at oxford, Tn 1845 he received @ government reward for his invention of photograplic self-registering meteoro- logical and magnetical instruments, D.

His health had been failing for some time, and a few months ago he had to “lay himself up.’ The hope that a respite would reinvigorate him was disappointed.
