ae ANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. The Currency Question—A Letter from Ex- Beeretary McCulloch. REVIEW OF THE WEEK. Imports and Exports—A Good Bank Statement. THE MOVEMENT OF GOLD ABROAD, WALt STREET, Sunpay, May i, inva} The principal financial event during the past ‘week is the passage by the Senate of what is Known as the Currency bil, We have already shown that this bill is objectionable. In connec- tion with the subject we find in a London journal a letter trom ex-Secretary of the Treasury Hon, Hugh McCulloch, in which he emphatically de- mies that his policy of contraction disturbed our money market, He says:— When THE POLICY OF CONTRACTION ‘Was commenced, aud was beiug pursued, it was necessary for me to institute measures for landing the floating debt (snort date obligations) of the vernment, at that ime amounting to near 1,300,000,000, in addition to legal tender notes in circulation, which measures could not have been muccessfully carried out if the money market were Feally disturbed by conyaction, It became, there- fore, Decessary ‘or me to Watch carefully the edect of contraction, not only upon industry, but upon the money market, and the result of my observar ‘Bons was that contraction did not paralyze or di- Minish industry, not affect injuriously the money market. it Was hot the realized effect of contrac- tion, but an unwise and unfounded apprehension o} its future effects, that raised the clamor against it which resulted in the repeal of the laws aurhorizing lt, My policy, of course, was not to reduce the real money oi the country, but to APPRECIATE THE VALUE OF THE CURRENCY in circulation by reducing the volume. My convice tion at the time was ciear and decided, and this cofviction has been Conirmed by subsequent ob- @ervation, that the only way back to specie pay- ments Was by reduci! the circulation until we doilar in paper should be equal in value to the dol- Jar in coin; and I haye no doubt, if this policy had mot been interrupted by a repeal oi the law, that ‘the specie standard would before this have been restored, without disturbance to a healthy money market or prejudice to the productive interests of the country. President has done himself great credit and the nation great service by withholding is signature from tne Currency bill. After such language asthe foregoing Mr. McCul- toch will scarcely lend his sanction to the pending ‘Dill, which, instead of reducing, proposes to aug- ment the volume of currency and put us farther sway from specie payments than ever. For it ‘must not be forgotten that the bank notes retain all their legal tender functions, and Congress has no more constitutional right to authorize an addi- tion to their sum waile they possess this equiva- dent relationship to legal tenders than it bas to issue another $100,000,000 of greenback. THE FOREIGN MARKET. While there are no important changes to be Roted in connection with the value of American securities abroad, there 18 @ condition of adairs oo the other side of the Atlantic which in a measure explains the recent shipments of golu from this country and accounts for the rise in the Bank of Kngland rates of discount to 4 per cent, France is preparing the way for a return to specie payments. The strain of these payments 18 nat- urally thrown upon the Bank of England, not in fullest measure, it is true, but indirectly. The gain of bullion by France since the 1st of January, 1874, has been more than £12,300,000—an income of $61,000,000 goid within three months, and as this ‘vast amount is being hoarded for a specific pur- pose, it jollows that being withdrawn from the Meld of foreign exchanges in which the precious metals may be required, Engiand was compelled to regort to the usual policy of self protection that attends A DRAM UPON THE EXCHEQUER, It is said, however, that this large sum has been gently and carefully taken, and not im a manner to amnoy the market; and that the Bank of France eannot afford to enlarge its draft to such a degree | as to raise the value of money very high, pecause perturbation or tightness of tue money market ‘would materiaily aggravate the difficulties of a return to specie payments. <A further advance of ine English Bank rate is therefore not expected in the near future, trade being dull and the expert of gold to Germany being suspended. The latter was the disturbing cause last year. A large sum is also now due to England on American account, We note among the items of financial interest that the London Stock Exchange has recently been seized with a speculative mania in Peruvian and Egyptian securities, the former having advanced since April 4, 1874, 12 and 13 per cent, and the latter 7 a ‘1s per cent. 4 EXPORTS AND IMPORTS, The foreign commerce of the port for the week ‘Was :—General merchandise imports, including ary goods, $7,523,889; produce exports, $4,454,387, and specie exports, $2,665,836. The total mer- chandise imports, including dry goods, since Jan- uarv 1 this year are $154,750,082, against 159,440 last year, and $174,110,748 in 1872 The totai exports*ef produce since January 1 are $100,- 700,204, against $10,640,538 last year, and $77,159,- 135 in 187% The total exports of specie since January 1 are ¢15 944, against $19,119,820 last Year, and $15,004,482 ta 1372, THE MONEY MARKET, Aithongnh money on cali loans during toe week 17 1,- Was exceptionally quoted at lend 2 percent tne | prevailing rates have been on the basis of 8 and 4 | ring than couid | fre: per cent, with more capital o find ose, Plethorie banks are a very sure sign of | business Stagpation. The discount market was easier and prime commercial puper passed at 5 @ 6% percent. Sterling exchange advanced to the highest point of the seas and permitted the | shipment of gold with a slight profit. The close, | however, was hea The business in exchange has been comparatively dull, owmg to the dimin- ished trade of importers and to the comparative | ease of money on the other side, whicn induces Manufacturers to allow their accounts to ron, pro- Vided they receive interest on their balances, has been sinuggish, notwithstanding an outfiow from the country exceeding $2,000,000.

There ts Qo demand; no certainty as regards future move. Ments; little to stiffen the price, and apparently nothing to depress it until purely artificia) in- fluences are set at work on one side or the other to make a brisk market, There is but slight en. Couragement at the present time for any combina- Son made to efect such a purpose, ! \ RAILROAD BONDS.

The shrink age of vaines, the decline Of production, the dim. potion of earfings and we reduction in the valine Of real estate owned by the great corporations, are not fully offset by the economy exbitited in their expenditures; and antli we have a healthy reac. tion of some Kind, ora new basis of value, it ts Unreasonable to expect men to part with their surplus money while there exists @ possible risk Oi joes.

SOUTHERN SECURITIES. There ts little to ve said concerning the general ist of southern bonds beyond a record of dulness. Tennessees and Missourts, however, are becoming more active. The Comptrolier of Tennessee has given notice of the payment of the interest due in July on the funded and registered bonds. The Virginia Board of Finance will pay 2 per cent on the six per cent and 13 on the five per cent stock issued under act of March 30, 1871, and the same rate on two thirds of the face of the stock not funded. They also passed a resolution that pay- ment at the same rate for interest due July 1, 1874, will De made as soon as the condition of the Treas- ury will warrant it, of which the public will be duly notided. GOVERNMENT BONDS. ‘The transactions in United States securities dur- ing the week, although moderate in extent, have generally been on a firm basis, prices more or less following the changes in gold. Most ot the pur- chases were made on home account, but a iair proportion of sales was made to foreign bankers for their customers abroad, The following taple will show the highest and lowest figures since funded 1881.

THE STOCK MARKET. ‘The entire week has been marked by a dimin- ished interest in stock operations and an indispo- sition on the part of speculators to venture upon a fleld so full of quagmires. Not for a jong time have prices been so adroitly and continuously manipulated by those who represent the bear in- terest as during the last thirty or sixty days, and for the present the combination—wherever it exists—appears to be of a character that is irre- sistible. One day it seems to use for a whip Western Union; another day Unton Pacific, and so on, and the street dance. Those who are in the background tnen pick up and make their profit on thousands of cheap shares that have been thrown over inthe general scramble. The next day an advance is ordered. Up go prices; the “shorts,” if there be any, hasten to ‘‘cover;” top is reached and orders come again to sell, Such is the process. Hundreds are caught at every turn; margins sre wiped out and the Cheap Johns go away disgusted; but every operation of the kind increases the prevailing weakness and doubt. The bulls having become bears, the current at this time sets in one direc- tion, and it is not easy in the present con- dition to turn it back. Prices recede more readily than they advance. The belief seems to be gain- ing ground, or, at least, finds more frequenj ex- pression, that many of the stocks on the list have been selling for more than their intrinsic vaius, and hence are now simply obeying a law of con- | traction that is enforcea by the general outside | situation, This is a point, however, on which rail | road reporta are not entirely frank. The decline of the week ranged from ‘4 to 4% per cent, Union Pacific and Wabash being the chief sufferers. Pacific Matl, Western Union, Panama, Hannibal and St. Joseph common declined about 3 per cent, and Lake Snore, Northwest, Onio and Mississippi | and St. Paul from 2 to 2% per cent. Canton broke | trom 70 to 55, but later rallied to 58 There was | some recovery among other shares, but the aver- | age close was weak, as will be seen by the foliow- | ing table, which shows the extreme fuctuations | for the week:— N.
