New York, July "a, 1885,
The bank statement for the week ending last
Saturday, shows the remarkable reduction of over
three millions and half in deposites compared with
the previous week The question naturally arises,
what has become of this large amountf Our ship
a trife over the California receipts. Trade is very
dull, and 1t is hardly possible 80 much money has
been drawn out for legitimate transactions by the
mercantile community A considerable portion of
this sum has been taken to pay the expenses Of
those who spend the warm weather in the rural
districts but it is hardly possible such large
amount has been withdrawn for that purpose
Stock transactions have been very light for seve-
raj days. and in that business the money has not
haan Whara haze IL a
unless it has been drawn from the banks to put in
the stocking.
Notwithstanding all this, our banks are album
dainty supplied with the means required for bust
ness purposes, and all good paper offered is freely
discounted at seven per cent; while loan calls
made as low as five and six per cent. The Collins
steamer of tomorrow, it is expected, win take out
not far from one million in specie; and it Is highly
probable that we shall have California steamer
by that time with as large sum of the precious
metal, thus balancing the specie basis.
The new liquor law, as regards the selling, re-
mains dead letter; but arrests for drunkenness
take place to the number Of thirty or forty per
day; and, as each person arrested is fined ten
dollars, this will be a very handsome revenue to
the city, and probably have a tendency to reduce
the taxes with which our citizens are at present
seriously overburdened.
A letter has been received in this city from a
gentleman in London, in which it is stated that
Robert Schuyler, the New Haven Railroad default
ter, was In London about the last of May, and
dined with several New Workers., at one of the
principal hotels in that city. 1t is said Mr. Schuyler
intends soon to return to the United States, when
he is confident in the belief that he can satisfy the
world Of the integrity of his conduct l believe
1t would be just as easy to prove black white, as II
would be to satisfy the public he is innocent Of the
charges brought against him. II will be rccolect-
ed that mentioned in former letter that thought
it likely Mr.. Schuyler would return to New York in
less than five years, and be received with open
arms by his acquaintance. The present appear
ances that he will return much sooner than FIVE
years; and his wickedness will soon be forgot, /
fear.
The first freight engagement of new wheat for
export was made yesterday for Liverpool The
exports last year up TO the 18th of Jsly was more
than ], 900, 600 bushels over the same time this
year. When the new crop begins to fairly come
in, 1t is expected the shipments will be very large
The price ofwheat has fallen very materially within
short time. Contracts have lately been closed in
the western part Of this State for delivery early in
August at one dollar per busbel
The twentyseventh annual fair Of the American
Institute is to be held In the Crystal Palace in oc

The liquor dealers are progressing hvorably in
their arrangements for daily paper, and the sub
scription already amounts to some City thousand
dollars. If they manage rightly, the success Of the
enterprise cannot be doubted, as all grocers and
liquor dealers viii feel bound to support paper
devoted exclusively TO their interests.
Our publishers are doing very little at present.
