The expansion Of loans is steadily going on.
The increase for the past four or Ave weeks has
averaged about one million per week. while in most
of that period the specie has been decreas-
ing. The discounts and deposits are now larger
than ever before. We must look for much larger
aggregate in the department of discounts before the

increase in the supply of specie. The expectations
Of precious metals have commenced, and will proba-
bly, increase. The importations last week were i'm

European ports will, upon arrival, add largely to-
our receipts Of foreign merchandise.
The last annual report of the La Crosse and NIL
wauke Rcilroad Company gives q very flattering
account Of It's finances, its position and progress.
The entire line from Milwaukee to La Crosse is esti
mated at 1893 miles in length. The eastern division
Extending to Portage City, is 95 miles long, and
will cost $2,55717O; an average of s26,9l7 So per
mile. Of this amount, IL 1892 1868 has been expend-
ed, the means being thus provided
