THE GOLD AND MONEY MARKETS.: Nhe Course of Government and Railway Bonds—Investment Securities Gener= ally in Fair Demand—Money Abundant and Easy, Watt Street, Sunpay, Feb. 11, 1877. ‘The Wealern Union pol, which had marched forth “like an army with banners,’’ to attack Jay Gould in his short entrenchmonts and make him captive to their bow and spear, returned in the early part of the week beaten and chapfallon, The retreat at ono time became nearly a rot, and tho dosiro to rid themselves of the impedimenta of acquired shares was so great that on Monday over 60,000 of this description of prop- erty was throwa upon the market, To say nothing of the blocks of real stock (long and patiently waiting a market) which Confronted the pool, there was pro- pared fer their discomfture a neatly arranged ambus- eude in the shape of a provended consoldation between the rival companies, Loto this the manipulators ot the movement walked with their eyes wide open only ‘oe Gud themacives trapped. As a natural sequence came desertions trom tho ranks, charges ot traud, re- Crimimations, “envy, hatred aud malice,” an explosion and probable law suits to follow. ‘The whole movement was a paraphrase of the “On to Richmond” craze in the eurly days of the rebollica, and iike it met with a Bull Run termination, Regarding the afluir in the prosaic light of figures We tind recorded a drop in price of from 76 to 70% for the woek’s work, as exirome limits, but with a recov. ery of & per cent in latest dealings. ‘The excitement in the telegraph operation gradually simmered away as the week advanced, and gave placo to & growing interest in the coal stocks, New Jersey Central, which bad been keeping up an air of respectability despite the widespread stories of its impecuniosity, Was forced to make a clean breast of its financial distress at the stockholders’ meeting held on Wednesday, How diretul this was it was not easy to discover, for no figures explanatory of the com- pany’s conaition were at hand, and no statistical infor. Mation was obtainable in any other way than by mark- sug down a probability aud taking tho chance of bag- Bing it for a tact. The one point, however, which was clearly dis- ternible presented itself in the shapo of a floating debt, pressing and imperative, It might amounttu $3,000,000 or it might be $5,000,000, At any rate tho first named sam must be had st once to save the life of the con. cern; the balanee could bo looked after in the futuro. Ti was like throwing alife preserver to a drowning ‘man, wh ness to be saved, forgets tho damage to bis opparel and bis inability to replace the game, Unfortunately the cry for help tell upou un- *ympathetic curr, fur #0 far the response bas been 4 niggardiy one, being im the shape of subscriptions to about $1,250,000 of the certifcates, the same only boli ood in the event of the entire $3,000,000 being taken, ‘The popular appreciation of the proceeding was frougtt with great injury to the market price of tho stock, and showed itself io bringing about a decline from 274, to 173, the latter being the closing quotation of the week, Melaware aud Hudson suffered in an equal degree im point of figures, and Delaware 4 Lackawanns to a less extent, both through pure sympathy and under the loss of coniidence which bears upon the entir’ list of anthracite companies, At one Lune a smart feuction took place under rumors of a re- construction Of the combination, but the story was found to @ bo better basis than a vague impression ol Mr, Knight, who appears to know as hitle of the doings of the other companies as he does of bis own. ‘The bulk of the week's business being centred in tho 4 speculative interest also, as a matter #howed decreased transactions, with « decline for the week of 2); per cent. The rest of the railroad list was similarly affected, though to a loss degree, and prices ‘were inclined to werken from want of support, as wel, as from being pressed im this direction by storics of Penewed cutting of r: y competing companies ‘THE TRANSACTIONS OF TH WiKK.

To tne Epiton or tue Heraup:. * The public is under obligations to the*HxRaxp for, its successiul ciforts to induce tho life insurance com- panies and other iustitujons tognake statements as to their assets and liabilities, The Herano would con- fer another favor on its roaders if it would urge tho companies to state how their money is invested. Coming mw contact every day with some of the largest capitalists and investors in real estate we find thata strong reluctance prevails on their part to invest in unproductive property, one of the reasons being that they fear that nearly all of the bouds and mortgages hold by those institutions are on unproductive property, in Many cuses worth less than the mortgages, and that at Oo lute day these institutions will be forced to tuko Jarge amounts of this property, which, not being willing or able io carry, they will throw it on an already weak investors to be an erroncous one, and \hat tho greater part of the money invested by the institutions is on improved property, which if it does como into their Possession oun take care of itself, A statement trom the companies showing the amount invested on im- proved and uoimproved property would greatly reas sure thoir stockholders and mvestors, LESPINASSE & FRIEDMAN, DEFALUATIONS AND EMBEZALEMENTS, IMPORTANCE OF FREQUENT PROFESSIONAL AUD- ITING—PREVENTION BETTER THAN CURE, To te Eriror ov tux Heranp:, In view of tho many and increasing number of em; bezzlements that occur in this metropolis and else- where in America, I have been struck with the urgent necessity there exists that bankers, merchants and corporations’ Looks and accounts should be overlooked and audited by imdependent, accurate and reliable ex- perts and accountants, There are tens of thousands of merchants, storekeepers and others, who, having implicit faith in their bookkeepers, are contented to let years roll by without knowing anything of their affuirs than they can glean trom a statement handed to them periodically by said bookkeeper, which in very many cases is as comprehensible to the store- keeper or merchant as so much Arabic or Hindoostanee, The very point that is considerea security and strength, viz., the fact of the bookkeeper haying been in the same employ for a number of years, is, in itsolf, @ weakness, without frequent auditing and investig tions, as having.gnce made an erroneous entry or entries to cover defalcation, it is tho simplest matter, for oven an average bookkeeper, to cover the same up, year by year, sc long as* his acts and writings are accepted to be straightforward, ‘here i no expert employed to overhaul his books and statements, and his employer is without suspicion, or perhaps, as in many cases, unable personally to check the real state of his affairs, What better example can | cite thun the late large detalcation suffered by Mr, 2. 't. Bavbitt aud the embezziement by the much trusted cashier of the First National Bank of Montrose. Had & competent ‘‘professio:al’’ accountant been em- ployed by the former to spend, say three or four da; every month in auditing and investigating his ‘ac- counts at a trifling expense, bo would have been saved irom a loss of some hundreds of thousands of dollars, 1 use tho word ‘professional, advisedly because I hold that it ia entirely a misnomer tor a ian to call himself an expert and accountant who tas wereiy kept @ certain set of books for a certain nomber of years, To be an expert, aman should have practised in the profession for very many years, and being almost o detective, should know by experience the different aud various ways aud means by which corporatious und employers may bo robbed and also how to discover them.
