FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. Monday, August 31?6 P. M. The leading feature of the railway share market today has been the further decline In Erie to 44* under a steady pressure to sell. From this point, however, there was a gradual recovery to46*. owing to purchases to cover "short" contracts. The real cause of this fresh decline was not even rumored, but it bids fair to Boon assume proportions which will make it one of the sensations of Wall street. It appears that the directors of the Erie Railway Company arc negotiating with parties Interested In the Atlantic and Great Western Railway with a view to the purchase of the latter by the termor and the consolidation of the two roads. As the Atlantic and Great Western line Is now In tho hands of a receiver and has been notoriously unprofitable from the beginning tho project referred to Is not very pleasant for the Erie stockholders to contemplate, and although the stock has already declined nearly twenty-live per cent there is no telling how much further It may Tall In the face of such a prospect as this. The terms proposed by the representatives of the Atlantic and Great Western Company to the Erie Company are briefly as follows:?The road Is to be sold to the Erie Company for the sum of $66,784,305 and the Buffalo Extension for the further sum of $1,382,000. The Eric Company Is to pay for the same by assuming all tho divisional *l,~ a a t-wl Hvoaf \FnotAi*n pAinmntr UUUUB U1 IUO AWOilMU ?ii?* v/v*?i| to the amount of $12,894,900 and by Issuing preferred stock for the divisional stock of the A'lantlc and Great Western Company to the amount of $10,109,275 and common stock to the amount of $30,082,129. The Erie Company Is, moreover, to pay one dollar In gold on each pound sterling for the interest past due on the bonds of the Atlantic and Great Western Company in order to take the latter out of the hands of the receiver, paying him at the same time fees to the amount of $192,009. Here, then, we have a direct proposition to Increase the common stock of the Erlo Company to the enormous extent of $20,082,129, and that this is actually threatened will be apparent on the arrival of Mr. James McIIenry, Sir William Russell nud Mr. Lalng, M. P., by the Scotia in a few days hence. The fate of the Atlantic and Great Western Railway depends upon Its consolidation with the Erie, anu the friends of the former maintain thnt the proposed arrangement will bo ultimately advantageous to the Erie, while, of course, It will ho of Immediate benefit to the Atlantic and Great Western. That the latter is a great enterprise carried out by foreign capital which should bo encouraged In this country cannot bo gainsayed, and it Is not improbable that strong Inducements will be brought to bear upon the Erie Company with a view to the completion of the proposed contract. The first etfect of the consummation of this plan upon the credit of the Erie Company would, as we have intimated, be damaging, but that the final result of the amalgamation of these roads on equitable terms would be advantageous to both there Is little reason to doubt. Just now tho financial condition of the Eric Company Is very bad, ana hence the reports current to-day that the company would default in its payment of tho September interest on its second and third mortgage bonds, due to-morrow, to the amount of about $350,000, For this, however, there is apparently no foundation. The earnings of the company In the first six months of 1887 frero $6,591,404 60, and the expenditures, Including interest and rents, $6,499,374 87, showing a profit of $02,029 73 for the half year. In the first six months of the present year, however, the earnings were $6,587,028 and the expenditures $0,984,176, showing a deficit of $397,146 59, although the interest on the preferred stock, which was not paid on the 1st of July, is included in these xpendltures. Such an exhibit as this almost reduces tbo Erie to tho financial condition of the Atlantic and Great Western, and there is no saying what may happen to the property next. Meanwhile Wall street is demoralized with regard to it. and sales to realize at a heavy sacrifice are being made dally. The gold market opened at 146 and remained firm during the early part of the day, but it subsequently declined to 144%, and the closing transactions prior to the adjournment of the board at three o'clock were at 144 S'. Following this there was a very limited amount of business transacted, and the latest quotation on the street was 144a 144?*'. There was an active borrowing demand for coin, growing out of the large "short'' interest outstanding, the speculative temper of the Gold Room bclug pearl th, and loans were made without Interest to either borrower or lender, and at rates vaiylng from one to three and a half per ceut. Tim gross clearings amounted to $20,033,000, the gold balances to $1,417,350, and the currency balances to $2,036,285. The Sub-Treasury disbursed $16,000 in coin In payment of interest on the public debt during the day. The Imports of specie at this port from foreign ports Just week were $43,324, making a total of $4,099,333 ninpA thu lot nfJn.nno.rv. ThA KentomhAr IntArAot on the ten-rorty loan, amounting to $3,275,000, falls doc to-morrow, and the bears In gold have construed this as an argument In their favor, but to all appearances this disbursement has been fully discounted. The price varied as follows at intervals:? 10 A. M 145 8 P. M 144? 1:13 P. M 144X 6:30 P. M 144>? a \ Money continues In very abundant supply and loans are made on government securities at three per ceut and on other satisfactory collaterals at fonr, the latter being the general rate, although the banks are unable to employ a large portion of their snrplus funds even at three. Erie Is, however, rejected as a collateral by both the banks and other money lenders, unless In small and modernto amounts, when mixed with other securities, as there Is no knowing bow soon It may fall mnch lower. This monetary ease still falls to stimulate speculation In railway stocks on the part of the outside public, and these securities consequently depend for support upon the cliques and the section of the street operating for a rise. The amount of commercial paper offering is light and the applications for accommodation from Uie West are small, while the remittances of currency to that section continue on a greatly reduced scale. A comparison of the statement of the associated banks of this city for the week ending on Saturday last with that for the corresponding week in each of the three previous years shows the following changes:?

Tlie amount of loanable funds in the hands of our hanks Is sufficient for all the necessary requirements of legitimate business, hut only such names m are "ilrsi class" arc discounted. The call for currency from the Interior was less urgent than for several days past, and, as most banks are receiving daily remit tances from New York, the volume of currency on hand was rather larger than on yesterday. Rates of interest remain steady at ten per cent per annum. A Cincinnati paper of Saturday observes:? There was not ns much activity in the money market today as usual, hut otherwise there was no essential change. The demand for money is comparatively light and freely met at 8 a 9 per oent in bank for lirst class commercial paper, and it is easy to place paper of a similar character in the open market at 10 per cent; but there is soute that is good, but not well known, that is taken ut 12 per cent. On call, money can still be obtained by nrst class houses at 6 a 7 per cent. There is si ill some currency going to the country. Referring to the same subject, a Boston Journal of Saturday remarks:? The Boston money market Is amply supplied, and the banks are napoadiag with liberality to the wants 01 their customers at fair rates oi" interest, some quoting 8 tic. a 7c. for mo3t depositors, others tic. a fi>?c., with the usual exceptions outside of these figures. For three and four months' paper (strong double names) 6X per cent may he considered an average quotation. Kates on call are without much uniformity. Dealers in governments would be supplied at 4>6 a 6 per cent, but arc not large borrowers at present, and other parties wishing moderate sums are charged 6 a 6 per cent, and in some eases 7 per cent, on strong collaterals.

Nashtillr, Angnst 27, isfls. The Legislature reconvened on Monday, and on Tuoaday the Committee on Military Affairs of the lower llonse, to whom Thornburgh's Infamous Militia bill had been referred, reported It back with a few alterations In the wording and an amendment declaring that no member of the mllttla called into service "shall be deprived of his right to vote in any and all elections In which he shall be entitled to vote; and that It shall bo tho duty of officers commanding roglmcnts, battalions or companies to open and hold electtona In their camps." Mr. Pressor, the chairman of tho committee, In reporting It, said that the committee recommended Its passage at once, but wore not ready to make a final report. Thla novel way of havtng a bill passed and then giving the reasons for Its passage afterwards took the Speaker rnthor by surprise, and he ruado bold to montlon tlio novelty to Mr. Prosscr. Hut Prosser knew his business, end the r6u> be had to piny, and plainly told the House that bill was to pass nnd the final report would not be made until It had passed; so, taking their cue from Prosser as law, the reporting of tho bill was considered tho final report of tho committee?with the reserved right on Its part to bring forward at some future day the " appalling evidences" which mpelled It to urge Its flual passage. One of the members of the committee, tho representative from Shelby county, Ryder by name, strango as It may soctn, had the audacity to dirrer with the majority of the committee, and presented a minority report, In which be took strong grounds against the calling out| of the militia, citing the correspondence lately had betweou President Johnson, Congressman Hawkins. General Thomas, Secretary Hchofleld and Governor Brownlow to sustain his arguments. If a bombshetl had suddenly exploded In the midst of the assembly It could not have caused a more fearful consternation than did this report. Then, to add to the general horror, several members, regardless of their oaths of oitlce to do their duty free of partisan feeling, stood up In I heir seats and moved to have the treasonable document printed along with that of the majority. I)ld ever any sane Legislature hear of sueh a trick to clrcn'ate treason broadcast over the land? Everybody against the report wanted to speak at the same time In his eagerness to show what he thought of a minority, nnd for a ahort time things looked as though there would be sonic "liar puliln' " ere t'ie Jp aker could declare who had the floor. Bve/y one when he did speak rolled up bis sleeves above bU elbows, ran his bin is through ins hair several ooaiecuUtO SKPTEMBlSlt I, 18ij8.-TRIPL times and then harangued his particular quarter of mi hour on "copperheads." "re'iels," "traitors" and "lieli hounds." The English language was Inadequate to the occasion, and the |>ecullarl.v brilliant terms common among classical negroes and market woniPn were seized unou with patriotic avldlljr and launched at the unfortunate minority mail. Law , books were clinched and swung over legislative beads, each speaker contending ho could prove bv Ihe coiie that in an important question like that of the militia it was treason for any one to report adversely, and the books were shut and opened with such noise and whirled about with such ttercenesa that the poor member from Shelby was constantly ducking under his table, believing "in his heart and i soul the arguments against his audacity would nilmtnato lu a shower ol luw books on his devoted bead. One representative, named Stone, who is much addicted to a vile clav pipe, wh'cli he smokes constantly during the session, Jumped to Ills feet during the excitement, and crushing Ills beloved stem under foot yelled out:?"Hch, there. Mr. Speaker. It Is about time we kicked out all fllcli documents and them who mako 'em." Then uprose Mynatt, ho of East Tennes-ee, and there was a lull In the storm, even the member from Sliolby venturing to lilt it's head above the rim of lus desk to listen and bo edified. Mynatt stood up. lie coughed three distinct times and a shudder crept over the recumbent negroes In the gallery, for when Mynatt cqpghs three times every negro in the gallery Is warned to wake up end listen to n "crusher" on treason, lie turned himself about, swung Ids right arm high over head, and then every negro in the gallery half jumped from his scat In affright, for Mynatt had struck tho desk as usual bv way of "attention" aud all ids "law" books had fallen to the floor with a fearful era -h. np went the bony arm again, and, with a "Mr. Speaker" Jerked out from between his clenched teeth, as though he would grind every copperhead between them if he could, the long, skinny linger was pointed at the unfortunate member from Shelby, and then M.vnatt spoke. He felt he was the leading member from East Tennessee, and hissed out that he bore his laurels modestly; but what was he not compared 10 the member from Shelby? He stood head and shoulders above such men, such pigmies. He desftised them. He spat upon them. What, tax nis people to pay *e for printing one hundred and forty copl"? of that font report I Not lie. Didn't lie by vote help to increase the debt of tho State *12,000.000 over and above the indebtedness at the close of the war? (if course he did. Who said ho didn't? Traitors would s.iv ho did, and lie didn't care lor traitors; but print correspondence between any sc( of men who had ever written to or about Andrew .Tohr.; >n ! The idea was monstrous, and ho ca'lod upon lus fdlow members to show tho world what pnriots they were, how easily tliev could lift themselves above the littleness of ordinary beings. and, like true statesmen, lay that report onthe table to "rot and he it lesion to evil doors." In vain did Williams, of Smith county, and Bosson, of ItiitheiTord appeal to the generosity and good feeling of the House, claiming that the refusal to print would he "a club in the enemy's hands." The minority report was laid on the table by im overwhelming vote. Then cntne, f oe next day, a motion to pa-is the hill on Its iin.il reading, and the previous question was moved and seconded. This gagging was too much even for some of the republicans, ana one republican, Mr. Brown, declared he would not vote Oil such a monstrous proposition, by which the right ot debate was to i>o cut off. The law, In his opinion, was unconstitutional in many respects, and if passed in its then improper shape would tie impracticable. The members in favor of the bill were afraid of debate, and putting on Ills lint Mr. Brown left the room, but returned in time to vote against the bill, it being passed by a vote of 47 to l?. It Is rather strange, to say the least, that the most earnest advocates of the bill, and those who sustained the previous question, were the members from Ka?t Tennessee. The militia is intended for West and Middle Tennessee, and yet the representatives of these two sections, who should know more about the wants of their parts of the stale than the Eastern men, were not at all anxious about the bill passing, and when it was supposed they would lie allowed to discuss the pros and cons of the question they were gagged by (he East Tetinesseeaus calling for and sustaining the previous question. It is very evident that East Tennessee has an axe of lis own to grind. To-day the Senate, which does not seem to look upon t he bill Willi all that radical favor which the lower hmise expects it should?and what It is determined .. ?.--it ir i.? ...... ,,Anr.i. In wnnf la nallo/l "mil. I II 3'IUII u IIIOIV nil nu, w ?... side pressure"?appointed a eoniinlifeo to go to Washington and confer with the President on (lie "situation" and ascertain to what extent Mr. Johnson is willing to send troops here when called for. The Hen ate in doing this knows perfect!/ well that In the respect of sending United Slates troops into the State General Thomas was to-day put under the saute Instructions as General ituchauun was some time ago In his department; but it nevertheless wants something special for Tennessco over and above what tho aforesaid Instructions provide for. 'I he appointing of the committee has set tho lower house In a wonderful ferment, of indignation, for thev seo In It tho first steps toward a conciliatory spirit on the part of the higher body, and as tilings now look I haven't tho slightest doubt that If Mr. Johnson would otrer tho committee "favorable terms" ? majority would be found tu the Senate with sufTlctent moral courage to refuse to pass the bill and dery the threats of the Representatives. As the bill now stands a-< pnssed by the House tho clause authorizing the Governor to collect from each comity In which ho thinks the militia ought to i?c sent "a sufficient amount for the. full payment of tho stale Guards so employed" is the most objectionable feature. Even certain of I he republican Representatives are In urms against it.. Dowdy, of Premiss, and McFatl, of Williamson court ties, have positively declared that thev will not allow the mllltla to enter their districts. They contend that their people can take care of themselves an 1 will do so In all emergencies. Much feeling Is also expressed against that clause which gives the Governor power to draw $:>n,ooti for the militia's support every time it Is called out, for he might call it out twenty times at his pleasure, and twenty tlinea fio.ooo u a very nice llgure to be tucked on to taxpavers. It is said that misfortunes never come singly, and so the old saw s?ems Just now to be working very consistently In this State, for to mid to the general condition of misery comes tho ominous fact that the negroes are arming and drilling in various localities; or what definite purpose no one ran learn, but every fbodv ran easily conjecture. In a country district about ten miles from Memphis I myself, thanks to the pilotage of an old negro last Friday night, rumo across a gang of soiufour hundred blackt, nil armed wlih inuskets and undergoing a rigorous drill "according to i'pton." as the white man who commanded them Informed me. Under the Unpresslon that 1 was a very active friend of Hrownlowlsm. which, under the circumstances, I did not #lr?nr lis t.nlil inn thft mnn did nut belong to anv statu military organization. but then lie thought It Jnst about as well that lite negro** should "keep their hands in," and when they were wanted they could bo relied on. I ventured to ask If the Governor inlglit not find fault with him If h* knowthat ho (the nctrro commander) was drilling a nilliita of his own without official permission. "Ob!" replied he, laughing, "I guess the old tnnn knows It about this time. It tvon'l amount to much If lie don't, un.vliow, for one of the members was down here the other dav nnd Ytold him how the 'boys' were getting on, and lie said, 'do ahead, keep It up,* and I intend to keep it up." The old negro who a- ted aa my guide and belonged to this armed band nald that every otto of them after the drill had orders to disperse in different directions, each one hiding Ills musket where ho thought best. Ilts Idea of ttio organization scorned to be that the whites and blacks were to hnve a battle soon In gome part of the state, when, If the latter were successful, the property of their antagonists would bo divided among the victor*. Just In tho out skirls of South Nashville tho negroes drill nightly and make no secret of It. l>av before yesterday two cases of twentv muskets each, directed to a prominent radical In 'Franklin, passed through this city, and what lends additional weight to the supposition that there Is mischief brewing ahead Is that the Committee on Military Affiitrs during their investigations tills week have ascertained that the negroes in this city have born by far the largest purchasers of firearms during the past two months, tine of the consequences of this state of things Is an exodus of tho white people In the rural districts from the State. Several families arrived In this city Mils week and have since left for Kentucky, not even feeling safe In the cities, while there arc qulto a number of persons in Memphis and Nashville at present who have abandoned their crops and homes In tho country and Intend to remain in these towns until things look utore peaceful in their own neighborhoods. These are facta which I can vouch for. The franklin tragody, In which a I'ruaslan named Blerfleld and a negro named Itowman were killed last week, has afforded the radicals another handle for a Ku Klux outrage. Two Freedmen's bureau men "Investigated" the clrumatanooa of the case a d ie Or 1 wo *g? nil" "?*w uiinio iniir kiik 1111 rupon. Now. iw I tnvsclf visited Franklin the morning after the murders were done, and did all that lay hi my power to get at the trne facta In the case, mid, by talking with the whl'e men and the negroes of the locality as to all thev knew about It, I may t>e able to speak Impartially IB. regard to the whole affair. In the flr?t place the Freedtuon's flnrean report doca not give a faithful account of the terrible affray, and Instead of simply stating what they pretended they had learned the officials go out of their way to call reitain of those whom they questioned "whipped curs." Tney took down the testimony of several negroes, whom the sheriff (a radical), to use their own language, "thought fit" to be called. The report states that the officials Invited the cltlr.ens to cull and give their testimony as to all they knew about I It'affray, yet two white men and one black man, who were really the only important wltneeses that rotild have been obtained, were not "thought fit" to give evidence. The letter of the negro Israel Ilrown to Nolin is pronounced by the Bureau men ua a forgery; yet they novor saw It, simply because they made no effort to find ft. It fell i Into the hands of a gentleman of this'city, who succeeded In getting It from the Kzcll | family's friends. This letter I saw myself. Israel j Ilrown. whom the report dubs as a myth, was well I known In Nashville, and only last night 1 obtained | quite a history of the ruffian from one of the negroes i here who knew him Intimately.
