FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL The Public Debts of the Southern States. OUR HOME MARKETS. Suspense and Inactivity in Stocks— The Course of Money. IMPORTS AND EXPORTS. WALL STREET, Sunpay, Feb, 1, 1874 The financial condition of the Southern States is tall times a subject of interest to their many bond, holders on both sides of the Atlantic; but unfor- tunately it is so much muddled that it is almost impossible to separate the wheat from the chaff, | It is gratifying to know, however, that in nearly allofthe States efforts are being made to adjust their respective public debts on a favorabie basis, and toresume the payment of the interest upon the same, In Virginia, Tennessee and Louisiana certain plans looking to thisend have already been evolved, and are up for consideration, In South Carolina the situation could not be more disgracelul ifthe government and treasury had been managed by PROFESSIONAL BURGLARS intent on the largest plunder. The conservative republicans in the Legislature are at the present moment quarreling over a printing bill which has Teached the enormous sum of over half a million dollars, as against an expenditure of fronr $12,000 to $20,000 that used to be charged for the same purpose in ante-bellum times. In North Carolina the people are at present unable to pay any part of their public debt, or do more than provide for the absolute necessities of the government, such, for instance, a8 common school instruction; the care of neglected idiots, computed at 1,000; the insane, computed at 500, and a large number of deaf, dumb and blind. an appeal is consequently suggested to the general government to lend to the State such FINANCIAL AID AND CREDIT a8 will enable it to provide for the total extinction of the debt without oppressing the people. Many members of the Legislature, two members of Con- gress and two or three leading newspapers in North Carolina are said to espouse the policy of Tepudiation. The total State debt since the war has been increased from $18,000,000 to upwards of $34,000,000, and the interest on the same has not been paid for more two years. One of the bills introduced in the Legislature proposes to pay thirty cents on the dollar upon all bonds issued for internal improvements since the war. The amount of these bonds is little less than $22,000,000, Ata recent meeting of the English bondholders, held in London, an address was forwarded to one of the public men of the State setting forth in general terms that if NORTH CAROLINA ‘will maintain the high credit abroad which she Possessed anterior to the war it will constitute “a certain amount of capitalin the hands of honest men far beyona the power of money” and secure the confidence and co-operation of the council of bondhciders, who will thereupon do all in their power to aidin the development of the great re- sources of the State—the opening of her ports, the growth of her mines and the completion of her railway system. ‘The message of the Governor fully acknowledges the validity of the debt incurred in England, and it 1s well said that the Legisla- ture cannot tamper with the same without doing @ greater injury to herself than to her creditors by the utter obliteration of her credit. FLORIDA, Among all her Southern sisters, however, there 4s no state which has so quickly regained her feet and possesses a public debt more insignificant or more controllable than Florida. For the first time since reconstruction the legitimate expenses of the government have not only been defrayed, but more than $50,000 of the floating debt paid. From the Comptroller’s report for the year 1873, just pub- lished, we glean the following items of general in- terest:—The bonded debt, with all the interest due on the lst of January, 1874, was only $1,430,223, or $245,659 less than it was supposed to be one year | ago. The amount of outstanding obligations in the shape of Comptroller's warrants and Treasurer's certificates 18 $190,585. The receipts for the year ending December 31, 1873, from the collection of taxes and licenses were $320,836, and the expendi- tures, exclusive of the borrowed money and inter- €st on 1871 bonds, were $314,817.. Of this amount $246,711 were for the regular expenses of 1873, and $68,105 were applied to the liquidation of bills in- curred anterior to 1873. These figures testify A CREDITABLE AND ECONOMICAL MANAGEMENT by the administration of the State, ana according to the census it now stands in total indebtedness the thirty-fifth on the list. It is a fact not gen- erally known that in point of territory Florida is larger than New England and has 12,268 square miles more than the State of New York, For the purpose of funding the present indebtedness of Florida the Legislature of 1873 directed the issue Of $1,000,000 six per cent gold bonds, having thirty years to run, of which $500,000 were authorized to be sold, at not less than eighty cents. Of this amount there remains to be sold only $235,000, the difference having been applied to the redemption and cancellation of former bonds. A tax of $120,000 is levied ior the payment of the Abterest on the foregoing issue and for the cre- ation of a sinking fund of at least 2 per cent on the principal, and the amount can be applied to no other purpose. The law likewise prohibits ‘the further issuance of bonds for any purpose whatever.” We dwell somewhat upon these details of the financial man- agement of Florida; first, because they are en- couraging signs of that recuperation which the people desire to see, and, secondly, because they afford an example wortby of imitation by other Southern States. As a consequence, Florida is growing rapidly. At least fifty thousand persons visit the State every winter, and capital finds a resting place in the development of orange groves, cotton piantations, and the production of vast sup- plies of timber. It is the legitimate result of the establishment of peace, political honor and public order. Of THE EVENTS OF THE WEEK there is little to write. Delay by Congress in taking definite action with reference to financial questions has not only interfered with specula- tion—a small matter, by the way, in contrast with general results—but it has curtailed the opportu- nities of those who are engaged in legitimate com- merce. The money of a nation is always sensi- tive, but it is especially so when, as in the present case, its character waits on the patent doctoring of a lot of Congressmen whose chief claim to men- tion is that they have played the demagogue in country villages and the dunce on the floor of the oattonal Legislature. Business men are anxious to know whether we shall have inflation, because more greenbacks means the multiplication of bank credits in the proportion of four to one, and @nother basis for business. It also means violation of law; the re-employment of @ war measure; a confession of weakness; an antagoniam to the offi- Clally expressed opinion of almost every Chamber of Commerce and Board of Trade in the country—a body of men who, representing the solid interests of the country, know whereof they nave spoken. The subject has been fully discussed in this col. umn, MONEY during the week was offered in large sums, and there was no little disappointment on the part of the banks and other holders that even at low rates—4, 6 and 6 per cent—the demand was far le: than the supply. This plethora of loanable funds io January is a potable and unusual feature in the monetary history of the country. Prime business paper was discounted at 6, 7.and 8 percent. un time, money wea offered at 7 ver cent for six NHW YORK months; 6 per cent for sixty and ninety days and 5 per cent tor thirty days. THE BANK STATEMENT for the week showed @ decline in the ex- ceas over the legal reserve of $478,125, The increase in loans amounts to $2,384,700; in deposits, ~ to $428,000, There was also an in- crease of legal tenders to the amount of $994,000, but a decrease in specie of $1,397,000. The total Iabilities this week are $260,018,000, as compared with $259,716,000 last week, and the ex- cess over legal reserve is $27,215,000. It is grati- fying to observe an exhibition of much caution on the part of the several banking institutions and an absence of any disposition to yield to the temp- tations afforded by the large outlay of greenbacks recently made by the government.

SATURDAY, Jan. 31—6 P. M. The past week was one of comparative quietude in commercial circles, and the volume of business was considerably less than for the week immedt- ately preceding. There was less speculation, while the wants of the regular trade seemed to have been in great measure satisfled, The spring trade has not made its appearance as yet here ex- cept in a few exceptional cases. There has been some little increase in the hardware and dry goods markets, but there has been nothing like activity even here. The principal ar- ticles of export continued in moderate request, and in numerous cases prices favored the buyer. At the Produce Exchange the market was unusu- ally quiet, Breadstuffs, under continued adverse advices from abroad, ruled quiet and heavy, prices favoring the buyer considerably, taking the whole week together. Flour was dull and prices could not be maintained, particularly for shipping grades, which could not find purchasers to any extent, save at 4 material reduction from the prices current a week ago. The Same remarks apply with equal force to wheat, the market tor which was only sustained by the comp: tively heavy deliveries on contracts made some weeks and, in some cases, months ago. The receipts have con- tinued remarkably.heavy for this season of the year, so that, notwithstanding the deliveries on contract, there some pressure to sell all through the week, the market at the close showed little or no improvement. There was quite a reaction in the corn market, which ruled dull and heavy all through the week, with fair receipts of new. The stock of old was small and this was accord- ingly held above the market .and remained nominal. Barley continued advancing until the price was very much higher, and the market ruled firm at the advance, Oats continued irregular and advanced, and declined al- ternately according as the demand was brisk or light. The movement in provisions was fitful and the prices Suetuating: On Saturday business was exceedinyly moderate in nearly all departments of trade, pri however, showing few marked fluctuations, On’Change flour was dull and unchanged. heat was in moder is request and rather steadier in price. Corn and oats Were quiet, but prices advanced about Ic. per bushel, Pork met with a better demand at full former prices. Lard was quiet. Sugar met with a moderate demand. at irregular prices, Coffee was inactive, with values quoted nominally the same. Petroleum was quiet but firm. Naval stores were quiet, with spirits of turpentine ruling firmer. and rosin easier, Freights were quiet and tates steady. Whiskey quiet, but firm, Correr.—The market was quiet, and in the ab- sence of sales prices were quoted nominally steady.

They now make 8 remark- able looking map, being constructed for partisan purposes, The Chicago Times thinks that there ts no jonger a “democratic party” in Wisconsin. That there is no longer a “democrat,” in the party sense, in that State, excepting E. G. Ryan, C. A. Eldridge and about four others, is a conclusion which not only the result of the November election, but all the facts that have proceeded out of that result tend to establish beyond further controversy. It be- lieves that the independents, “the opposition,” have taken the place of the democracy, FLASHES FROM THE PRESS, The first shad are selling in North Curolina at $1 each, ‘There will be four murder trials in Berks county, Pa., in April, The Governor of Arkansas offers rewards for the apprehension of fifteen murderers, The Granite Mills, of Fall River, Mass., have de- clared a dividend of ten per cent.

The accounts of the Delaware peach crop sent to market during 1873 have just been made up, and show 2,109,334 baskets—quite a decrease compared with the crop marketed in 1872, which yielded 3,569,546 baskets, The Albany (Ga.)

He still adheres to the title of champion oarsman, to which he is entitled until he forfeits it either by defeat or the non-acceptance of a proper challenge.
