FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. Events of the Week Among the ‘ Bulls and Bears. > REVIEW OF THE MARKETS. The Course of Gold and Money—Firm- ness of Government Bonds—Steadi- in Railroad Bonds. 4 —_—_—— Sunpay, May 14—1876. Tho recreant bears who have been bating their own @pecies by endeavoring to play a bull game cannot be said to bave met with much success during the past Week. They have discovered that the effort to ad- vance the market just now is as difficult as were the twelve labors of Hercules—the more difficult since the Hercules of the street is on the other side of the wpeculation, For some reason there is a halt, the wheels of the movement are mired, and there foes not appear to be beef enough among all these fraudulent bulls to drag them out of the slough. Evon the injunction dodge of the ex- managing director seareely created a flurry m Western Union, and as we hear nothing further of legal pro- Cexses, and as the Atlantic and Pacific Company have Botified the Stock Exchange of its intention to issue $6,000,000 new stock, we have possibly seen the end of the matter, Injunctions, as engines of destruction in stock-jebbing warfare, have lost their terror, and should be put away among the arbalists and ‘catapults of by-gone ages. Meanwhile, a novelty in the way of inventions as applicable to rigging the stock market is tuch desirea and will pay well the ingenious deviser Unquestionably the hnes of the bull party did not fall in pleasant places, for the entire condition of things was inimical There was the war among the railroads daily becoming moro threatening; the tele- graph duel, which people are boginning to think is se- rious work and not like onc of those sbam affairs that , German students indulge in at Heidelburg, and there was the family quarrel in the coal companies, likely at any mofnent to bring the whole houso down by their tars. Added to this, thero was that recalcitrant pub- Ue that positively refuses to lend a helping hand, and, suspicions equally of Bovis and Bruin, keeps religiously aloof, exclaiming :— A plague on both your houses. So customers were confined to small dealers on the short side, who becam lorced to close up their retail trade, while the large bnes who operate en gros saw no particular necessity to go shopping at figures which they consider extreme, What the menu for the coming week is no one can guess, But it is impossible to starve and live on such marketsas Saturday’s afforded, and something niust be cooked to tempt the palate of speculation. Indecd, the whole business is in such a sid and dolorous con- dition that “funeral baked meats” would seem the most appropriate viands for the situation, Though our filend Mr. Merryman sticks to bis motloy, sack- cloth and ashes and ‘suits of woe’”are members’ every- day wear, and with little chance in the immediate future of a change for more cheerful attire.

OUR FORKIGN COMMERCE. The exports of specie for the weck footed up $1,571,859, and since January 1 $20,836,600; as against $28,843,442 same time last year and $15,544,944 in 18T& The exports of domestic produce—currency val- ports of dry goods—gold valuation—including general merchandise, for the weck ‘ending to-day amognted to $4,865,627, and’ since January 1 $121,451,600; os against $137,735,050 same time last year and $1,571, 859 in 1874. The receipts of cotton, coustwise and by rail, during the week were 25,729 bales, and tho number cx- ithe commencement of the cotton year—were 3,921,165, an increase of 590,772 bales as compared with the corresponding period of last year, THE GOLD MARKET. Gold suffered a decline from 112% to 1124, subse- quently rallying on the heavy shipments of the week to 11234, and closing at 11234, The following are the fluctuations :— Snening. Higa se con.

In railway bonds, however, the dealings have been | moderate, The best issues have stiffened in price, but | tho majority may be reported as steady and drm, Stato | bonds were comparatively dull. THE BANK STATEMENT, the details of which we published yesterday, indicates that currency is again returning to this centre, The increase in. surpius reserve 1s $1,979,975, while the legal tender average is $3,481,000 higher than last week. The decrease in the specie average is doybticas due to the heavy shipments of the week that aro re- corded elsewhere, Owing to the ungatisfactory silence of Troasury state- ments concerning the disposition of legal tender notes forwarded to Wushington to withdraw national bank | motes, no safe judgment can be formed as to the future | character of the money market; but 11 1s thought by | those who are best informed that we shall have con- tinued ease during the summer. At present the supply of capital is abundant, and the | absorbing question is how to make It profitable in start- * | ing anow the wheols of industry. THE RAILWAY WAR. - An Important factor in the commercial situation just now isthe bitter contest raging between the trunk lines, and which bids fair to increase in intensity, Both in Chicago and New York it is contidently assorted that both freight aud passenger rates will be further re- duced carly tm the present week, Muny private con- tracts have been made at such low figures that they can only be detrimental to the best interests of the | competing lines'and their stockholders. An Indian- | apolis journal referring to the matter in connection | with trate at that potut says:—“It is noticeable that | the improvemeut in business is largely in. froights con- { | signed to Balumore, Philadelptua and Now England points, the shippers, for some reasou, still giving New York the cold shoulder, West-bound troights made a since the fall mouths, The shipments of moats and | merebandise to Southern points are still quite heavy. H Stock traffic is assuming largo proportions, and the | crying demand of the shippers is for better yard fa- | eflitrves at this point. Coal traffic, comparatively speak- | ing, dead. Local business is improving Onelv, and % | as this is the only class of freights en which paying | rates are maintained railway managers are doing all in | | their power to encourage this department” On the j other hand, the flour merchants of vittsvurg complain bitterly because that city does not share tae advan- | tages which low rates give to competing cities in tho | East, ‘They make the tollowing comparison of freight flour:— Somat Rate, ' Miles, From Chicago to Pittsburg. 469 400, | From Chicago to Baltimore 805 duc. , From Chicago to Pailadelpina, 823 doe. | From Chicago to New York. 91s Abc. “It willbe seen that.we pay the same as Baltimore merchants for having our flour carried only a litle more than half the distance, while w York and Philageipnia pay only twelve and a half per cent moro than we do for nearly double the distance,’’ MEMORANDA, | The proposals for the Cincinnati gold sixes— $1,500,000—will be opened on Tuesday next at noon at the American Exchange Bank. Large orders have ance companies and financial institutions, It is also worthy of note that Cincinnati investors have taken more of theae bonds than of any former loan of their city, and the indications are that the bids will be many and at jull prices. Mr. W. J. Ingram, second agent in this city of the Merchants’ Bank ot Canada, has been appointed as- | sistant general manager of the bank, and will yo to” | Montreal shortly to assume his new duties, Mr. War son, who has charge of the agency hero, as well as bemmg jomnt-general manager, will remain in this city to look after the bank’s interosta hero, visiting Canada occasionally to discuss or promote general business. Other changes of a minor character will be made with a view to strengthen the whole executive. Colonel John B. Palmer, President of the Chartotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad Company, bas jast completed the sale of sufficient bonds to retire the en- tire foatung debt of the company. The bonds sold com- prise $500,000 of the first mortgage and $500,000 second mortgages. This makes the entire bonded aebt of the company consist of $2,000,000 firat mortgage bonds and $500,000 second mortgage bonds; the remaining $600,000 second mortgage bonds, in accordance with the terms of the negotiation, having been can- colled and destroyed. The features of the negotiations are the retirement of the floating debt and, at the same time, the reduction of the bonded debt $500,000, The road is about 200 miles long, which makes the frst mortgage debt about $10,000 per mile aud the second mortgage debt about $2,500 per milo. , | DOMESTIC MARKETS, i Caperen i log Cotton, irregular and nom middii Lise; mid- {goed oat N asset dling, 10%¢. ; good ain ot recs nine aloes wt 13, es | Cotton irregular; imigatings Be ing. 1 ordi » cette Geoth tata.

They ignore the fact that Jotties are 1,000 tect wide, and expect to find the maximum depth from jetty to jetty, yet praise the channel maintained by the dredye boat at Southwest Pass to a degree that makes it surprising that any ne should want a better | one, although a deviation of thirty (eet from its centro gives but fliteen feet or leas, and within a distance not one-quarter of the width of the jetties there are but eight or nine feet @ persistent misrepresentations and hostility shown by a portion of the citizens and press of this city to this ehterprise is one of the most unexpected and remark- able features developed by it. 1 was led to believe that every intelligent citizen of Now Orleans wanied deep water at the mouth of the river.

NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, MAY 15, 1676.—TRIPLE SHEET. THE COURTS. In the month of December, 1874, a decree of divorce Was entered in the Supreme Court of this city in favor of Alouzo Megarge, and against his wife, Mary A. Me- garge, on the ground of adultery. The decree was entered upon the report of a referee, before whom testimony was given by two witnesses, that on the evening of the Sth day of November, 1874, they saw the defendant, Mary A. Mogargo, enter the Grand Union Hotel, in this city, with a man other than her husband, and retire with him to @ room, he registering their names as “James H. Baldwin and wife, Poughkeepsie, N. ¥.!" In the spring of 1875 following the entry of this | decree application was made to the Court to have it set aside on the ground that it had been obtained by means of deception and traud. This application was made on | bebalf of Mra. Megargo, who, in her affidavit, telda very remarkable story. The sabstauco of her affidavit was that her husband had taken steps toward procuring a divorcee from her and had consulted a lawyer (Wiliam H, Gale) for that purpose; that she received an invitus tion fiom Gale ing ite mourning plumes aloft, and drawn by four gray horses, all covered with tuncreal drapings, Abont two O'clock tho casket wus carried from the house, and ia the midst of quite acrowd was placed in the hearse, Then the procession of friends formed into line Pe followed the hearse up Broadway, througt Eighth a Tenth streets, to the ferry. The body was taken to the place of its repose in Calvary Cemetery. DEATHS.
