6 FINANCE AND TRADE. t Business Somewhat Better at the Chicago Banks. Xho Prodtice Markets Active and Irregular—Provision* Ex cited and Higher* meat Bather Weak—Other Grain Steadier—Movement During the Week. FINANCIAL. Bankers doing a general business report a rathe r Increasing demaiul for money as tbe season ad vances. City cnsTomers, groat and smalt, seem to be doing a fair trade. They manifest a firm and cheerful feeling, confident that for them tbe wont. is over. Country banka during the past week bava shown more activity, and still greater la looked for In a few daya or weeks at most, owing to tbs greater number of inquiries aa to whether they could rely on Chicago for much greater accommodations when the crops begin to move. They are oil assured that our city banka can meet promptly and cheerfully All the calls enstotnen can make, and their only anxiety Is for more. There never was a time in the history of the city when Chicago banka were bciter prepared to do the business of the entire Northwest without calling on New York or other seaboard cities for assistance. Discount rates wore steady daring tbe entire week at previous figures. Tbe range la wide, viz: 05il0 per cent, almost all ordinary transactions being mads at 8. This has been tbe ruling figure, in fact, for many weeks post. Call and short-time lotos 3@(J per cent, according to amount and ac companying collaterals. ; Now York exchange baa fluctuated widely during the week, owing to settlements on lbs Ist and 4th. It opened at SotffcbOc Premium per SI,OOO between banka on Monday, and settled down to the same figures bolow on Wednesday evening. It opened weak on Thursday morning at the same figures; but tallied toward* the close to pat to Sac above: and on Saturday it opened and closed firm at 00c premium between banks. All this vria duo of course to the settle ments to bs made on the Ist aud4(b. and tbe range of tbe market was also wider, owing to tba wheat corner, but when it was known that old not amount to much, prices began to rally, and stead ily advanced to wuat la about tbe shipping figure for currency, viz., 00c premium. Indeed, wo bt-ardof some small shipments. Tbe fact shows that tbs amount of produce now going forward duos not equal current payments or that tbe bulls in exchange still have control of the market. This, of course, they could nut bold for anycousiderable time if the balauce of trade was in favor of the West. Nobody, however, knows better tban they that this state of things cannot coutmua many wvuke longer. Thu clearings of tha week were: Date. Cltartnai. JJatnneti, N0i1U&J..... *1 uvula?.... ‘Wviiinwiay.

Borneo*, Tort., Ann. 2.—ln yonranswer to my questions In TiicTimiuxa of the 27th nit., you say It la doubtful whether Uie Government would bo able to maintain enough neper at par with coin to satisfy the nubile wants. Why could nut the Government just as well maintain tho paper at par with coin aa the national banket As 1 understand it, tho national banks are compelled to resume os well as the National Government, Jan. 1. JHtU. If even they did not noed to resume, they are at all events obliged to redeem their paper with greenbacks, which. In turn, could beat once con* verted into coin on domsndim? it from the General Government, which is the same; so that lean see no difference. [llls easier for two men to lift a weight and carry It than one. if the banka take care of their own circulation, which they are abundant ly able to do, tho Government will not be bur dened with It. it Is true the banks can nrcsent greenbacks to the Treasury for redemption In coin; and It Is also true tho Government can present bank-notes to the banks for redemption In coin. Through tho Revenue laws, Post-Office, and Land-Office, not far from 200 mill ions of bank-notes will come into pos session of the Government annually; and, every time tho banks present n greenback at the Sub-Treasury for coin, tho Government can trump tho card, orfoilow suit, by presenting a bank-note at the Washington bank-rcdcmptlou agency for tho cold coin. The banks understand this, and have no inten tion of attempting to make the Government redeem their notes, hut propose to take caro of their circulation from their own means, which they are abundantly able to do. John Sherman explained this whole matter, last March and April, to tho Banking Committee of tho Uousc, and silenced all such criticism and cavil as that raised by Mr. K. Wo printed his explanations in Tm Tntnuxu at the time.—Ed.] The national banka are using tbclr national charter, us you say, as a means or national reputa tion for banking purposes. Could they not Just as well do a banking business private bankers! And would not depositors be much safer!—as than depositors would be secured by the bankers be coming Individually liable to the full amount of their combined wealth; whereas now, in some States, they are only responsible for tho amount of their stock, and in other States, us in Ohio,double.

Wu havu no sympathy with or respect for any aucb pestilent doctrine.—Eu.J An Evening nt Hchwab** Saloon* JVew York 'Vrlbunf. Aua. a. A single gas-jet flickered dimly Id tlio base* meni saloon ul Citizen Schwab lust night, am) lit up the faces uf a dozen mou who weru earnestly discussing the polltlcnl situation. Ono man, who was evidently absorbed with his subject, sac with head bent low over a muss of papers, writing rapidly and drying hla writing with ashes knocked from his pipe, lie looked up only when hla glass was empty, and then to order more hour. Citizen Schwab, with his sleeves rolled up, waited upon hla guests. CUP zen McGregor, another prominent Socialist, sat uu a billiard-table, glass iu bund. “We do not thing that Kearney will arrive here before a week or ten days,” McGregor said. “We shall not give him any formal re ception, lest that might Injure the cause. Of course wo shall receive hluj lo a very friendly manner, and do vrhot we can to help him. Whenever he may want to address the public, we coo guarantee him, on any night, an audi ence of «i,OOO. It la uncertain whether he will be at successful In agitating the workingmen la the East as be has been lo California, ill* ob ject In California was to unite the worktnguieu of different shades of thought, and bis princi pal rallvlng-polnt was the expulsion of the Chinese, lo this he has succeeded. Of course California belong! to the Union, and the Chinese may ultimately overcrowd the Eastern States, but It Is not yet the question at Issue bere, aud wo doubt whether be can inter est the Eastern workingmen upon the subject, Ihen we do not kuow whether Kearney will fol low the same method tu addressing the Eastern workingmen os those in the West. You mean,” Interrupted Air. Schwab, ” whether ho will be mure polite. We have been trying here for many years to bring the work men together, and have not been able, and wo do uot think Kearney can make them think as ho does.” “Then," added Citizen McGregor. •• if be baa allied himself with Gen. Butler aud the Oroeuhackera, it will uot help him along much.” “ Did you read bow tho Socialists are gaining at the elections In Berlin!” rsked Citizen Schwab. “ Berlin was one of the last Giles where Socialist doctrines took root, and that shows what we may expect In other places. At the next elections wo shall sweep the whole country." •• You do uot believe In Gen. Butler)” some one said. “No, sir,” said several voices simul taneously: “we will nave nothing to do with bUu; be thinks only of himself.” “Schwab,” said one of the men standing near Urn. *• wbst do you believe In, anyhow!” “I believe in being bsppy, aud making tho most money I can with the smallest amount of manual labor possible,” wasthereadj reply- Mr. McGregor again led the conversation. “ The Socialists do nut intend to work with ibe National Greenback party In the cowing elec tions, nor unv other. We do uot believe In the issue of paper dollars that do uot represent any thing. Wbst will prevent the Government from continuing to Issue them until they fall SU per cent and lower?
