FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL ——_—_—_ Review of the Week---An Active and Strong Speculation in Stocks. The Money and Exchange Markets. Investment Securities---Government, State and Railroad Bonds. Sunpay, Jan. 19, 1879. The conversion of the bears from the error of their ways to the more cheerful creed upon which the bulls have pinned their faith made further progress last week, but not without an humiliation of sackcloth and ashes to more than one of the impenitents. Two moderately important failures of operators upon the bear side were announced, but tho effect was merely to imparts taste of momentary bitterness to the PJeasant cup of advancing prices, which nearly the entire street is taking a swig at. In fact, with one or two notable exceptions the bear party has passed the rubicon and is fairly landed on the bull shore, It being pretty evident, thatas in geometry, the shortest line establishes the least distance between two places, so does a ‘short line” in stocks express the nearest way which lies between solvency and disaster. Except- ing alulland fractionally lower prices for aday in the middle of the week the market has been characterized by increased interest, an important advance in all the ruling favorites and a very large addition to the aggregate of transactions. Although as regarded in the light of a gift enterprise the market may be said to have been chock full of prize packages. Some of these latter opened richer thap others. The choicest of the lot (as a glance at the table of com- parative prices will show) proved to be Rock Island, the grangers, New Jersey Contral, Morris and Essex, Delaware and Lackawanna, and Michigan Central. Reasons have been given from day to day in this column for the speculative attention which has been directed to the above favorites, but they are too voluminous to admit of repetition here. It may be brietly reiterated, however, that the existing buoy- ancy of the stock market is justly due to the revived feeling of confidence in the future, which the estab- lishment of resumption, the flow of capital seeking investment and the common benefits flowing into the country through the channels of our foreign trade are doing so much to secure. Thero is little doubt that the prevailing temper will continue for some time to come; indeed, some long financial heads are shaking warningly already for fear that it may run into a wild and rampant speculation that will bring up in grief at the end. Such extravagance s sincerely to be deprecated. Prosperity, to be worth the name, is to be reached by slow and steady stages. It must be permitted to bud gradually, like a tree in the spring, and is not to be got at by being wrenched open, like an oyster, with a jackknife.

Advices from London reported that the Bank of England rate has been ro- duced to 4 percont. The weekly statement of the banks of New York was the most important one \ssued for a long time, as is remarkable the magni- tude of the changes sinco last week. ‘There was an Increase of $4,910,400 legal tenders and a decrease of $1,617,800 specie, making @ gain of $3,292,600 in the total reserve. As the deposit liabilitios have in- creased $5,108,400 the gain in surplus reserve is only $2,015,500, The surplus reserve is now $14,412,750 against $14,173,725 a year ayo.

The severity of the weather all over the country and the consequent check to shipments of cotton, wheat and other produce have caused a limited supply, and, at the same time, the continued calls for the five-twenties, largo amounts of which are held abroad, created an increased demand, In government bonds the principal interest was centred in the funding operations.

HOW THE YELLOW FEVER WAS KEPT OUT OF NATCHEZ, A correspondent who was in Natchez, Miss., during the whole of the late yellow fever epidemic, sends us below an interesting account of the manner in which a rigid quarantine was maintained, to the thorough- ness of which, and to the energetic removal and pre- yention of nuisances, there can be no doubt that the city owed its exemption from the plague which devasted all the river towns above and below. Wasuinoton, D. C., Jan, 13, 1879. To THE Eprror or THE HERaLp:— It will be remembered that the towboat John Por- ter spread the yellow fever along the Mississippi River last suminer, leaving it at every point she touched. The night that this boat was due at Natchez ‘was a very stormy one upon the river, and such was the severity of the clements that this boat was unable to make a landing, but passed on, touching at Grand Gulf (port of Port Gibson), Vicksburg, papi, Hickman, and was at last tied up and abandoned for the time being in the Obio River near Gallipolis. Shortly after the passage of the Porter by Natchez the yellow fever was declared epidemic in New Or- leans and broke out in the above men- tioned cities. Immediately our port was closed and the strictest quarantine regulations went into effect, not so strict at first, however, as they were afterward made during the epidemic. The wharf boat was moved down the river a mile below town, and Natchez being situated on a bluff 250 feet high, there was no access to the Marantine station except for pedestrians on foot wna winding path, well guarded, and by water, clerk and men on the wharf boat were not allowed leave it, but had their meals sent down daily and ‘were watched over by a quarantine guard, who exer- clsed supreme command, None of the New Orleans ‘kets were allowed to touch, but coaled from a flat | gece down the river, on which they deposited the money and mail, which were atterward collected, the mail being thorougily fumigated and third class matter excluded entirely. All skiffs were tied up. Up town the city was carefully guarded by paid guards on every road leading into it, and half of these paca were colored men who were placed on some of the most important posts. Throughout the whole summer these guards performed their duty most vigilantly and acted in a few in- stances (the colored guards) in arresting chicken thieves coming in to early market. The city of Natchez is always very clean and healthy, with thick china berry trees on all the streets; but our street contractor is a very energetic man, and at this period made the city iook like a garden spot. All filth was carted away and every pig removed trom town, and their haunts renovated with carbolic acid and lime. This was done to all gutters and outhouses: and damp places, Later on the carbolic acid gave out,.for which all citizens were most devoutly thank- ful; then coal tar was substituted in its place, and, in addition to being sprinkled about, this tar was put in holes at every street corner and at dark set on fire. A stranger would have thought himselt in Dante's hell had he been present at this time, for the atmosphere was murky with the tar smoke aud heavy with its sinell, while boys threw rocks in the holes to see the liquid flames spatter round about, and men stood on the sidewalks, with earnest countenances, talking of the dreadtul plague and its ravages. ‘The danger became greater as the yellow tever broke out twenty miles below us and was spreading out into the country from Port Gibson, only thirty miles above, ‘The citizens came forward voluntarily and ganized themselves into a patrol to do duty night son day and guard every entrance to the city by path ee bayou. In this hour of danger the whites and blacks wore together in one common effort to keep the fever out. Among those colored citizens who joined the patrol and did duty night and day, in rain ‘and sunshine, were Fitzhugh, the postinas the Sheriff, and John R. Lynch, ex-member ‘of Con: gress, and ‘this in a democratic community where political honors are equally divided and all live in peace. Over these patrols captains were appointed to inake the rounds and see that the men were on duty. One of the few captains was a colored man, and this colored man rode around the lines, a captain over some of the bluest blood in the South. Noman ever murmured @ disapprobation at this step, but the appointment was universally acceptable. No goods betng allowed to enter town, some merchants gave out in their supply of a few necessary articles, but prices were never changed when only one man had what everybody else wanted. The earnestness of the people was shown when, during the early days of the epidemic and before’ third class mail matter was restricted, a merchant received a pair of shoes from New Orleans through the mau. An orderly and quiet body of citizens were on the point of burning up bis whole stock of goods and store. Several times people from suspected dis- tricts tried to et into the city, who were immediately lodged down at the quar- antine station on the wharf boat for ten days. , two men were quarantined in an unoccupied country house and no one allowed to go near them. Their tood was daily sct under a tree in the yard for them. People from the adjoining country were admitted into town when it was known that there ‘was no yellow fever in the neighborhood; but as the disease spread out from Port Gibson the line of limi- tation was drawn nearer to Natchez, and just betore the quarantine was raised we one was admitted from beyond the seven miles post For over two months ey nad no intercourse with the outside world except by letter and telegraph, and no one can say that we suffered many inconveniences, as the travelling people were away and would not re- turn at any rate till Uctober, and. the quarantine was raised the last of October. Not asingle case of yel- low fever occurred at Natchez during the year. 8.

H. A DANGEROUS SIDEWALK. To TRE Eprror or THE HERALD: Please call the attention of the proper authorities to the condition of the sidewalk in front of the build- ing lately occupied by the Brewers and Grocers’ Bank, southwest corner of Twenty-sixth street and Third avenue, It has not been cleared of snow this season, and is really dangerous to life and cay ae MORE ASH BARRELS. To tHe Eprror or THE HeraLp:— From my window, not open, on Forty-second street, between Ffth and Sixth avenues, I can count | twenty or more ash barrels which have stood there for the past ten days. The storm yesterday pre- vented the strect cleaning wagons from getting up to the sidewalk, but to-day ail the snow has been shoveled far out into the street, thereby rendering the work easy for any one sent to empty them, FORTY-SECOND STREET. THE TELEGRAPH POLE NUISANCE. To THE Eprror or THE HERALD :—~ Cannot something be done to prevent telegraph companies from placing their ugly looking poles in our finest thoroughfares. All along lower Broadway these eyesores have recently been placed. ‘Artist’ is correct when he says they are a disgrace to the city and a detriment to architectural beauty. Will not the Hxratp kindly use its influonce so that these nuisances are removed from our streets? Very re- specttully, ARCHITECT. THE SNOW TROUBLE. To THE Eprror or THz HERALD:— I live in Fifty-ninth street, on the line of the Belt Railroad. After the late snowstorm I had the side- walk and street in front of my house thoroughly cleared of snow, whereupon the railroad banked it up again before my door, throwing the snow again on the sidewalk. The policeman now notifies me that I must have it cleaned afresh and the snowbank removed which has been piled up by the railroad and prevents access to the hydrant. I wish to ask through your columns whether there is any remed: tor this evident injustice, and whether the Belt Rail- road Company cannot be compelled to carry the snow away, instead of piling it up on each side of their track in a narrow street, to the injury of the house- holders. JUSTILIA, AN IMPORTANT SUGGESTION. To rae Eprron or THe HERALD:— The Henatp recently contained a report of the proceedings of the Brooklyn Board of Health and Education, tending to prevent the spread of scarlet fever, diphtheria and other contagious diseases among the scnools and families of thatcity. Ourown city is suffering fearfully from the same scourge, and last Sunday a Sabbath school downtown had thirty- eight of its scholars absent from this cause. In our public schools it is almost daily announced that the dread disease is in some house, and the children are advised not to pass in front of it or go near the block, but go round the block on their way to and from school. Yet a system or rather practice pre- vails among teachers that should be sternly forbidden by the proper authorities. A child stays away from school one or two days, it be ‘the absentee resides in the very Bibek: where the malady prevails, yet the teacher sends another child to the house to ascertain the cause of absence, perhaps only to find the absent child down with the same or another contagious ill- ness. The little messenger is clad in warm woollen garments, enters the sick home, and coming away to report to the teacher unwittingly conveys back and disseminates among its class the very disorder the authorities are anxious to check. Where are the truant officers who are paid by the city, and whose duty it is to hunt up the absentees, &c.? Be good enough to use your immensely potent influence to have this pernicigus practice stopped, and not send innocent victims as it were to the slaughter, and oblige ONE OF MANY ANXIOUS PARENTS. JURY DUTY. To Tne Eprror or THe HeRatp:— Is there no remedy for the flagrant injustice done by compelling some persons todo frequent jury duty while others more favorably situated and better qualified are completely absolved therefrom? I am engaged in a small business that barely furnishes the necessary means of sustenance for myself and fam- ily, and hence requires my unremitting attention. duit here, however, the law. steps in and says I must ve my business and family to take care of them- ie ves and Rotel ged me to do jury duty, while it ab- solves other and wealthier persons from’ such duty. Twice inside of three months I have been summoned to do jury duty. This, Mr. Editor, is an intolerable outrage. Why not take my pocketbook at once? Is there no remédy? Can you not agitate the subject until some reform is made? MAC. THE THIRD AVENUE SAVINGS BANK. To Tne Eprror or THE HERALD:— It is now nearly two years since the unfortunate depositors of the Third Avenue Savings Bank re- ceived the small sum of fifteen cents on the dollar from the receiver of that institution. Every cent deposited in that rotten concern was earned by con- stant toil and “the sweat of their brow” by the poor men and women who trusted their hard-won earn- ings to the heartless directors who managed that institution. The Henao is the friend of the poor, and through your Complaint Book I ask Mr. Hurd, on behalf of myself and other poor girls, When are we to receive another payment? It is three years since that bank burst, and in that time many large estates have been wound up. big Lge the re- ceiver of the Third Avenue Savings Bank wind up its affairs, and if we have anything to get give it to this hard winter ? A FEMALE DEPOSITOR. SALTING BROOKLYN STREETS, To THe Eprror or THe HeraLp:— As one of an outraged community I wish to call particular attention to the salting of tho strects in Brooklyn. No doubt but that my severe cold and throat trouble come from this accursed custom of sprinkling salt all over as they have done in Brook- lyn. Every individual in Brooklyn hes an interest in this matter. Every child in Brooklyn puts his life in danger if he goes into the street. I am not sure that he is safe if he remains indoors, It is some- thing to be dreaded. It is possible that there is an ordinance against this salting in Brooklyn. I aon't know, a8 this is my first experience of spending a winter in Brooklyn. LI live through this winter I hope to arrange to spend no more winters there. It there ix an ordinance as herein mentioned, what does the united horse car interest caro about it? They have so much influence that they simply do just as they please. I dare say that very few are aware that salt- ing is dono; they see that the car tracks are clear and presume that it is brought about by other causes—it hap! aes of it. But had they resided in New York in 1859, 1860 and 1861 they would know better. ‘The the stage lines salted Broadway, and clothing was injured, shoes destroyed and people hurried into their graves. Well, that was the time when throat troubles Thad never heard of diphtheria un- til that time—then it raged. Well, to the credit of New York, it putastop to tho practice at the time, The Broadway and University place line salted for a time, since the time alluded to, and several of the other lines have tried it on, but have been stopped, I believe, as @ rule, except on switches, turnouts, &c, Pardon the length of this. Lonly wish to call your attention to the matter, believing that you will ‘use the power of your valuable newspaper to age a wrong. JO. AL DESTITUTION IN TEXAS. (From the Dallas (Texas) Herald, Jan. 11.) ‘The account published in the local columns of this paper of a visit by the reporter and Captain Morton to the poor and destitute of Dallas is enough to start the tears from any but the eye of a savage or a dumb brute. It i# charity to think that the people of Dallas do not know the extent of the suffering tn this city. Men and women were visited who were sick from ex- posure to the horrible spell of weather we have just gone through, and who had not a stick of wood or one ounce of anything to cat, They even had no ysictan or medicing. One family was found where he poor women had sold the last dress they had to obtain provisions, and were found with no qarment- on save a thin cotton chemise. Others still, were found in tents, or rather rags sewn together, — with "the trozen earth for a floor, and apparently God their only friend, for it looked as if man had abandoned them without pity and without remorse, Poor litte chil- dren and aursling babes were secon with no other s of obtaining warmth save by nestling around ody of theit mother, and that mother with low, atnken cheeks, thin hands, dishovelldd hate and nd despair written in jottors of fire all over tenance, Kverywhere frosthitton fe tor the reagou they had 1 T through ice and snow to | to keep starvation from their humb *, And still ochers were found with the manners of retin ment, Who fefused to acknowledge their dosti. tution yet were without @ single comfort Lor « ‘necessary of life. or without the moaua of “obtaining th them. This is truly a horrible tale. As] stated above, we eannot believe that the people of our city in favored circumstances know anything or halt the truth in regard to the extent of misery and woe within their corporate limits. Let ang man who wants proof and wants to see with his a, ie” take a trip with Marshal Morton around 2 | ine healt supper which comes off on the 13th i pranent an opportunity to all to give. But would i not be well for our Christian ladies to form relief associations and receive contributions of clothing, of blankets, of wood and coal or provisions? In- formation in regard to the destitute could be lodged with their officers and the articles needed. And then there is hardly # family which could not find some- thing about the house of no service, aud yet would be a blessed boon to these unfortunate people. Such articles could be sent to designated points and from thence distributed. Men could be applied to for money and material, and women asked to make gar- ments and distribute them, Such associations can systematize the work and the relief. present, immediate action, is absolutely necessi ath =! 1TH ST.
