FINANCIAL AND COMMERCHL, Review of the Week—'The Stock Mar- ket Active and Fairly Steady. THE MONEY AND GOLD MARKETS. Goverment, State and Rail- road Bonds. Watt Strerr, } Suxpay, May 6, 187 Zhe rolume of business, for the past week was well up tothe average, despite the fact that it was un- usually freo from influences of an exciting nature, In * Mowt instances the prices at tho ond of the week were midway between the highest and the lowost made during the sane period, and wero tho outward and visible expression of a tairly strong market, The im- | Pression agto the Juture bus greatly changed from that prevailing a couple of weoks since, und has grown outofthe fact that investors wave recoverod their senses dnd are no longer making blind sacrifices of their property upon the altar of terror from tho change of front accompanying the chunge of resi- dence of the ci-devant Twenty-third street party, who for tho time being occupy a hybrid condition of being goither bull nor bear, and from tho further fact that the European complications are expected to work out our financial salvation by giving a fresh Start to trade and commerce. Imbued with theso im- pressions pretty much the entire ‘‘streot’’ was ranged upon the bull side at the opening of the week, and a sharp buying movement ensued, which marked the list up all around, But Stock Exchange laws ure as dunmutable as those of the Medes and Persians, and ono of theso is that when the shorts haye been covered and the public is absent a recoil in prices takes place, as with a bow which hag discharged its bolt. And it so happened according to rule—the first decline being succeeded by a second rise anda second fall, which brought the week to a close with tho rosuit noted above. It will not be disputed that the tone of specu- Jaton is growing more favorable, and that confidence in many securities is guining strength. This 1s chiefly manifested in the case of the coal stocks and the trunk railroads, very considerable purchases having been mado of these properties under circum- stunces that lead to the belief that they will be re- lieved from specalation, So far this business has been but Hitle more than that of absorbing a drop from the bucket of securities of all kinds which the street now holds, and with this comparison it may be asserted that the bucket never was so Jarge or so tull as it is at tho present time, ‘The plentifulness of money and the great shrinkage of values, however, have rendered the tusk of carrying the same ar easy one, though as an index of putiic prosperity the tact is anything but assuring. It istoo soon to know yet whether this glimpse of prightness is the forerunner of clearer days or whethor the clouds are hkely to shutdown again, Wo may at toast nope forsunshine, and the conditions being unlike those which control the natural phe- nomena we may by confidence and determination even command ‘t, TRANSACTIONS OF THE WEEK. ‘The following table represents the opening, highest and lowest sules, regular way, of the principal stocks during the past week, together with the number of shures dealt in:— No, Open.

Merrimac has been quiet with sales of but3,808 sbaros, Hukill ranged during the earlier portion of the week botween 434 a 434, de- clining since, and closing at 3%, the lowest point of the week, ‘tho business in the Comstock mines is steadily increasing, having reached for the weck under review over 30,000 shares, A new mine, the Arizona Chie, In the well known Moss lode of Arizona, ts to be put on the market dur- ing the coming week, The mine is the property of a company with a capital of $1,000,000, divided into 100,000 shares of $10 each, and the stock is ie be put on the market at about 43 a share, TUB CHICAGO AND ST, PAUL REPORT. The report of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad Company, from which some extracts were given in Tucsday’s Heraup, 18 scarcely likely to please the shareholdors In that company. The gross earnings, which in 1878 amounted to $8,255,743, wero reducod during 1876, when owing to the Centennial thore was a large increase of pusseoger carnings, to $8,054,171. Owing, however, to a reduction in the expenses of the roud, the net earnings show an increase of $15,457 over those of 1! but thero is an increase of $52,653 in the interest payaole on mortgage bonds for 1876 over that of 1875, The proilts, therefore, of 1875 and 1876 stand as follows:— 1875, 1876, Gross carnings.... $8,255,743 64 $8,054,171 39 Operuting expense: 6,170,363 71 }, 968, 324 OS Net earnings. 085,389 93 $3,100,847 36 Subtracting the interest on the mortgage bonds for the two years wo have the following result:— 1875, sas ese0 $8,085,389 93 $3,100, nee 36 Interest on mortg. bonas 1,980,227 73 S2aa2 881 12 Balance $1,105,162 20 ‘$1,007,900 at From the above tt is apparent that should there bea decrease of $1,067,9¢6 24 in the earnings of this road it 18 to be feared that tho company would be unable to pay tho interest on their bonds. For the first four months of the present year thore has been a decrease of $498,712 In the earnings of the road and this de- creaso unfortunately is not likely to diminish until alter harvest, It isto be hoped that a good harvest and the effects of the war in Europe may have a bene- ficiul eifect in increasing the carnings, DOMESTIC MARKETS, Gatvuszon, May 5. 1877 3 middling, 105, id (Om middling, Not oarnings.

Arthur, resident of the Brotherhood of Loco- motive Evgieers, and trom gention in Michigan, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Syracuse, Loutmena, Peno- syivania and other States, A lengthy address was read by Mr, J. K. Ingalla, who was followed by Mr. Haywood, and then shorter addresses were made by Mr, Maddox, Dr. Newberry and Colonel Beeny, after which the Convention adjourned to reassemble this morning. The speakers lust evening took the ground that as they uro seeking for a great reform they should strive to keep to the leading idea by method, and also remember how neccsaary 1t was to educute the public mind up to that standard which was requiredin a matter so serious. FATHER BYRNE'S LECTURE, The Rev, Father Byroe, O. 8. D., delivered the sec- ond lecture of his jos at Terrace Garden Theatre, last evening, before a largo and appreciative audience. The subject, as announcod, was “The Growth of the Catholic Church iu the United States During the Past Century.” In tracing the history of the Chureh in America the revererd lecturer sketched the grad- ual spread of Catholicity under circumstancos that | | were at first unfavorabie, inasmuch as distupnce and re- Hgious prejudice co-operated to returd it, But these once overcome by the development of the ratirond syste the growth of more liberal ideas the Church bas risen to ber present wonderiul state of prosperity. THE OMNIBUS BILL Naw Yor, May 5, 1877, To Tux Evitor ov tux Hens. As you bave given a hearing to the gentieman who writes from Albary, giving his reasons why he thinks Governor Robinscn should sign the Omuibus bill, will you allow me sufficient space to say a word or two and why | as earnestly think the Governor should not sign the bill mentioned? I write to the Henan be- cnuse it bas ever proclaimed a atrict neutrality in all political matters, no measures being advocated simply vn account of party willing toat all side ould bave @ hears ‘There are two parties tu this State—viz., democrats and republi- cuns—the principles of the one being diametrically op- posed to the other, The present Governor was omi- ‘Rated in a democratic convention, and, necessarily, by democratic votes, He was elected, not by republicans but by democrats, who presamed, tu voting tor him, they were helping to elect one who would, under all circumstances and in each and every instance, represont the party which placed Lim in the bern | chair, Now, hore isa bill framed by republicans In their interest, not asked by democrats, iutrodaced in 4 republican 18! re, and having & preponderance of votes as a matter of course, whether good, bad or inajfferent, passed by « strict party vote.

THE HOME MISSIONARY HOCIETY, A large congregation was gatherod last might in the Broadway Tabernacie to celebrate the fiity-trst anni- Versary of the American Home Missionary Sociecy. Tho annual report showed a total of 996 ministors of the Gospel in the service of tho society: distributed throughout thirty-two States and Torritories. Two missionaries bave preached to congregations of colored people and thirty-three in foreign languagos—Welsh, German, French and Swedish. The number of congregations and mission. ary stations supplied was 2,196. ‘There were 86,300 pupils in the Sabbath schools. There had been revi- vals during tho year in 181 churches, and 5,304 hopo, ful converts woro reported tohave been nade. The balance in tho treasury was $9462 Tho yearly re- ceipts were $16,315 less than the precoding year, due to the vast amounts of money diverted from channels of benevolence by the Centennial Exposition, the Presidential cloction and the killing of grasshoppers in the West. CATHOLICISM STIGMATIZED, Tho anniversary sermon was preached by the Rev. Dr. Zachury Eddy, ot Detroit. His text was from Numbers, xiil., 13—‘Let us go up at once and possess the land, for we are able to overcome it,’”? The preacher summoned the various sects to evangelical work in this country, The genuine Caucasian popo- lation was divided into two great branches— the Celtic and the Teutonic, Tho Celtic religion crouched in trembling prostration before tho priest, His hearers should not shut from their eyes the dark cloud of ignorance and superstition which overbangs large masses of our population, If their | miods were only vacant the simple remedies of tho | Gospel might bo received with gratitude, although not with intelligent reception; but their minds were, for the most part, already occupied. It long ago had passed joto a proverb that ignorance ‘a the mother or superstition; and tho most ignorant classes of the peenialon were precisely those who wero hope- ely enslaved to superstition, In the South wore the beatheu negroes, nh the North the ifiterate part of the population was enthralled by that 8} in which ali the most terrible and fascinating superstitions which ever captivated the mind of man were cunningly combined, Popery was almost avow- edly @ religion tor tho illiterate, and it was im these years making horculean efforts to attract and crys- tallize uround {tselt the popular ignorance. Tru Romanism bad = its) schools = and) = what called its = educations, but should not forget that thero was « literate as weil as un illiterate ignorance, aud that what was called education was pot seldom a desire tor excluding rather than imparting knowledge, The evangelizauion of the whole country must nolo that of these unfortunate millions steeped im brutish iguorance und bound by the fetters of sunerstition. ‘Thia work vught to be done soon, Now was the golden opportunity, Two parties were struggling tor the mastery--the Roman Catholic party and the heathen or atheistic party, The nominal Roman Caihohc population to-day was 7,000,000; but this estimate included a multitude who: religion was a loose tradition which bad come to them with their blood, aud only became an active principle when it was excited by the violent appeals of priests and demagognes to clinnish prejudice, The preacher had ho tear that popery would ever become pre- we dominant in this country, but unless checked it would ruin the Republic. The thick cloud of popular ignorance would darken tuto midnight gloom, Progress in the arte aud scionces would be arrested, Vico and iminorality would pro- vail, Tho United States would become wore corrupt than Mexico, Toavert these feartul calumitics tbe armies of Israel must go up at once and possess the land. Rome and hell never slept, THK AMERICAN BIBLE SOCIETY. Instoad of holding its usual anoiwersary exercises the American Bible Society last evening listened to a discourse on “The Diliceulues und Advantages of Bible Translation,” by the Kev. W. M. Taylor, D. D., ut St, Paul’s Methodist. Episcopal Church, corner of Fourth avoenué and Twenty-secund street, Dr, Taylor took for his text Acts, i, 2—Wo do hear them speak in our tongues, the wonderful works of God.” He com. menced, sermon with an allusion to the descent ot the Holy Spirit upon the aposties, and dwelt at some length upon the miraculous gift of Jnnguage in which tho spirited exaltation of the apos- Ues found utterance. Ho considered that this miracle proves it to be the will of God that all people stould receive His word tn their own tongues, so tuat they may become familiar with it und have its precepts deeply graven upon their minds, ut tor a long period the Church had lain oven to the reproach of neglveting this evident wish of God, The mass of Curistians bad ho means of ubtaining a personal knowledge of the Ser:piures. It was only by undergoing the greatest dangers und hardships that a few devoted men bad succeeded tn opening the Bible to the multitude, Even to-day one of the chiet difficulties of imissionari among heathen nations ig the want of versions ‘ot the holy book, 1n th Nanguang 6 of the nations among whom they are laboring, 1b i# to tho lesseutng of thig dificulty that the bible societies of England and America haye directed thor most strenuogs eiforts, and the resultof the work of Bible translation up to the present day nay be summed up in the statemont that revisions have been prepared iu 226 ailtereut Janguages or diniecis, Io estimating the greatness of Ais result {t must bo remembered that it represents a long history of sell rillee, perseverance aud vnilinching loyalty and devotion to truth, Traus- Jators of the Bible have generaily had the grewest truis (0 contend = agninst. Some of them | had to endure persecution and to risk even loss of Iie jn their efforts to spread tho Gospel, and some have bad the bitter disappointment of bemg deteated by death when just at the threshold of success. All bad to devote many years of patient lubor first in the ac- quisition of the necessury leurning—tor profound Knowledge is required—and alterward in the tedious perlormance of the work of translation, In proof this Dr. Taylor cited many case: those of Drs, Smith and Van Dysck, who spent sixteen years in preparing an Arabic version; Dr. Schauffler, who devoted fourteen years to an Osthanlic versiou, aud Dr, Chereschansky, who labored for tt- teen years to produce a version in the Mandarin col- loquial tongae, He then dwelt on the many advan- tages of the translation of the Bible, laying great stress OD its Missionary Value, us Well as on 1t8 high moral jufluenes, not forgetting the exulting effect that its wspired style 8 kaown to havo on ull languages od. Ho then coucluded with an universal dissemination, as well as for all Who may aid the progress thereol, THM AMERICAN VEMALM GUARDIAN suctxty, At the Rev, Mr, Conkling’s Presbyterian Chureb, corner of Madison avenue and Twenty-ninth street, the forty-third anniversary of tho American Female Guardian Society and Home for the Friendiess was held lust eventug.

PRESBYTERIAN MISSIONARY BOARD, In the Madieon square Presbyterian church the an- nual sermon before the Bourd of Missions was preached by Rev. William J. Tucker, the pastor. limmediately before the sermon the secretary of the Bourd stated that there was a falling off this year inthe number of ordaived missionaries uz also in the receipts of the society, Tue expenditures amounted to $480,316 46, whereas the receipts noited but $472,949 64, Fields of Jabor bLerectofore considered barren were becoming fruitful, such, for example, ay China and Mexico, It was to be hoped that candidat would ofter themselves for the missions and that tbo receipts would be euch as to enable the Board to conunue its good work unimpaired. Rev. Dr, Tucker spoke of the consciousness telt by Abrabam, Isaac, Moses aud David, the consciousness of the righteous, and said it should be felt by each one of us. It was felt up to tue time of Christ, and now the Courch makes use of tt by ber power to mstruct. She 1s clothed with 4 pall, the pall gi vo her by Christ, She teaches us bow to be stroug, how to stand firm amid the toils and temptations of the world. Man can give more to this world than the world can give to him, What the world gives must be lett behind, but what the righteous man gives lives alter him, Man must not live tor himself alone, be must live as Christ taught him, There 1s that power 1m the soul that can enable him to do wonders if it be only exercised, He felt great pleasure tn belug able to say that an eminent authority recently said:—"11 the sou! Of u mau were transferred to the body of an apo Dis acts Would be widely diflerent irom those of a body formed like that of man and having the soul of an ape,” There are two sides of prophecy, the regular and the irregular, In anciont times men heard propiecies trom day today—hved in them, We now are taught by | the Chureb which 18 over living and working. Pro- fessional men will tell you whey ure working for the good of society, but the teaching and works of church members are doimy intinitely more, All have it in their power to work, tor did not Christ say, ‘Ask wud you shall receive.” Let us ask, then, aud receive the power to do that which God expects Of us Let us not work for ourselves ulone, but for others, and when we leave this world let us have the consolation to think that we have kept that which was given us in trust, pure, and so lots it to others, CITY MISSION AND TRACT socreTy, In the lite Carmen Chupel, at No, 134 Bowery, last evening, Was celebrated the anniversary of its opening | by the City Mission and ‘ract Society. Rey. John Dooley selected his text from Isaiah gyxxv., “The excellency of Carmel,” and awelt in comparisons upon the whole career and accomplishments of the Carmen Chapel. [t was opened, he said, upon the Sth day of June, 1872, and had been used almost daily since for popular — worship. Its founder, the City Mission and ‘Tract Soelety, had been the sole method of its support, through voluntary dovanons Mr, Dooley gave a review ul each service that 18 conducted in the Cutnpel, comprising (ho temperance meetings oa Monday, inquiry meetings on | Tuesday, prayer meetings on Friday, and preaching on Sunday of cach week, The noon day prayer meet- ings form one of the most important and satisfac. tory works of the chapel. They were inaugu- vated, Mr. Dooley said, upon the 14th of Oc- tober, 1872, and hela ‘with unvarying regularity every’ day since, between the hours of twolve and one o'clock, The aggregate attendance ut all of these noonday meetings was estiinated at 125,000, Mr, Doo- le, lated many incidents of conversions made at these meetings, of which be estimated there had been 100 cach year. Theo uggregate uttendance of peopio at all the meetings in tho chapel since its opening was put down at something over 200,000, [ho vVotaries were in great part strange of the poorer class, who frequent the Bowery, ud are attracted to the services. Tho Young Men’s Christian Association has a work in con- nection with the chapol, sustaiving a dormitory and an eating departnent, The former baa an accom- modation of over thirty rooms and at certain seasons iy nightly filled to its utmost capacity, Only she homeless and friondiess who apply are admitted, and their wants are supplied with considerable liberality. Mr, Dooicy’s sermon was listened to by an audience comprising many friends and supporters of the chapel, who evidenced no litte satisfaction ut the labor of love accomplished, SEAMEN’S CHURCH MISSIONARY socIETY, The thirty-third anniversary of the Protestant Episco- pal Church Missionary Society for Seamen was held Jast evening in the Church of the Incarnation, corner of Madison avenue and Thirty-fiftn street, This society 4s one of the oldest in the State and bas accomplished during its thi¢ty-threo years of existence much good umong sealaring peupie, and among its patrons and board of directors may be found many of the most prominent goutiemen of New York. 1 addition to the services last evening, the annual report of the society was read and a sermon appropriate to | M., the occasion was delivered by the Rev. Artour Brooks, | ‘The society at present has three stations, a sailors’ home and a reeding room. The principal station is the floating church at Pike street and Kast River, In conjunction with this 18 tho muis- sion house in Pike street, whero there aro irce reading 1ooma and achapel. ‘the floating church wnd tho mivsion house are under the churge of the Rev. K. J. Walker, who is also the chaplain of the sailors’ Home, in Franklin squar On the North River sido there is a church on West street, near Leroy, which 18 m charge of the Rev. H. F. Roberts. In addition to the two churches mentioned there are open air services held every Sunday at Coenties slip. These latter services are conducted by the Rev. L. McGuire, There are two services every Sunday at each of the stations, and the average attendaace is between fiity and one ‘hundred | sailors ut ouch service, At the mission house at No. 34 Pike street, services are held during tho week and on all holy days. There 13 also a Sunday sebool in connec: oh with the mission, at which there is a good rogular attendance. During the past year there were held 1:0 services ut the floating chureb, ‘There are eighty suitor communicants and about one hundred otbers, many of whom are old sailors and men-ol-war’s men. There were twenty-four confirmed by the Bishop, fourteen of whom wore sailors. There were also about twenty | baptisms, three being adult sailors, sixteen marring and ten burials, The Sailors’ Home, in Franklin square, bas accomplished much good in’ the reformation of sailors, and several men who were in former yeurs | desperiiely wicked cuaracters nave become church communicants and respectable men. ‘The Superin- tendent of the hone is Mr, Rode, who reported that duripg.the year nearly two thousand sailors of all nae tions had heen cured for, The finuncial status of the fociety was considered good, They owned the floating church and the sip in which tt floated, the Pike street property and the new Sailors’ Home. In addition to this they bad a considerable sum of money in banks on deposit, GENERAL CROOK ON THE INDIANS. {From the Gnreago Post, May 2) General Crook, tho military commander, whose po- sition in Indian affairs has been,so prominent, is on a visit to Chicago, en roule to the East, stopping at tho Grand Pacific, It ts something over a year since ho was here last, during which time a great deal has taken place among the Indians, but nothing which bas not been dilated upon to the fullest extent from timo to | time, 1t was in regard to the management of the In- diuns that the /vst reporter asked imiormation of the | General, and particularly 98 to proposed, charges. It is wellknown that army oflicers as a general thing do not concern themseives with mutters woich he i the bands of the government, that they are not anxious to express their opinions as to the probabio advantages or defects of the proposed changes, Gen- eral Crook was no exception to the rule, but so far as Todian aifuirs, past and present, were concerned, be ‘was quite tree to state his mind, Inthe Urat place there was pot that novelty in regard to the disarming aud uaborsing of the Indiana which the people here- abouts appeared to think, It bad been m operation a Jong time, and had ceased to attract attention er oppo: sition among them, There were wandering ndians who were not thus deprived, but those who came into the reserve must accept this as one of the conditions | of their admission. Coming into tho reserve meant coming to live on the government, Theo ladwn fund feveds and clothes these people, and supports them as wholly and entirely as though they were totanta, ‘There are between 14,000 and 15,000 of them. G eral Crook spoke of them us being in complete dive ness, They did absolutely nothing but loaf about, much ay alot of upen-wir paupors. They have no arms aud do not Lunt, aud, having DO horses, their powers of locomotion are limited, The proposed change is to kK and to change the character of Vrook saw no reason why the Indians could not make their own living. It was ho exportinent, this matier. The Indians of Indian Terriiory were completely sel{-suppoating. He could not euy why the Ipdiuns of the Nopihwest beun subjected to the same treatment — T ‘dod it as almost Honsensical to Lell ot the capacity the Indian to make his own living and live in pence, There was absolutely uo meo, iu their action under similar circumstances, up to a point, as, for example, an Indian would take 8 property just hke a white man, and when jolt im the woods to wauder adout like wolves ho caine just aa idle and worthless us white men, **( him a picee of land,’” said General Crook, “show pies bow to cultivate it, give him a start in the way of tools and seed, and be will be anxious to bold on to what he has and to bettor himself,’ ‘The Ger not ihink that there wax anything remarka’ the Indian as to his ability to take care of and did not think that remarkable means were r to take care of bit and to place him to the best tage, He would go about improving Indians just as & man would go about rearing cbt) by pat- ting 1 within their power to be usetul und tuen teach. ing them to be so, He had @ poor idea of the patent plan and of touching Indians by processes dilteront from what would be used for other mon. They must be given work, and the civilization which follows work would come to the To regurd to a natural hostility between the Indians and the whites General Crook said that this did, indeed, exist to a cortain extent; bat from his remarks 1 would appear as though the to difference between these people and white white inan was the least iriendly of the two. What would be most needed, said he, atwr ing settiod the Indians and made of them an agricultural community, would be 10 place a strong gaard over them and protect them. They have jenlousies and little enmities between tribes | or bands, but bothing of a serious nal and tor a | ete idleness they are remarkably peacetul. The General was not iniormed aa to what the government meant to do in tho way of chang, but It might be. that the policy which had been round so suovessiulin the ludian Territory would be followed amoug tbe Lndiaus of tho Northwest, There is nothing atall, Said he, to prevent the Indians trom being made aa orderly community, and one perfectiy seli-sus- win people living In co i | the fate Joseph i.
