The Panic---Prospects Frightening.

Il
At New York on Monday Virginia skies advanced
/, and quoted at $50. AT the close of the
stock sales prices firm and the tendency to fur
ther advance. The Express of Monday afternoon,
says:
The drafts upon the Sub-Treasury, as advised
to the Assistant Treasurer, are $3.50, ,O0e but what
amount will be presented to-day cannot be stated
All the drafts from California by the Central
America and the Star of the West have been prompt
ly met, so far we can learn.
In currency there is more doing. Eastern Bank
notes sold at per cent, and Southern, including
Ohio at 10 per cent For Illinois and Missouri l5a
20 per cent is asked.
At the Stock Exchange there was much more
cheerful feeling and higher prices paid on the
list generally. On Saturday the paper of the Long
Dock Co. and of the Cumberland Coal Co. went to
protest.
The Banks with scarcely exception, report ia.
vorably upon Saturdays business A good deal of
paper went to protest, but it was the of sus-
pended houses and collection paper which took that
course. Discounted paper was met With great
promptness, and the general tone was decidedly
more encouraging. The Bank reports to-day will
show increase of coin nor of loans.''
The Star of the West from California threw into
Wall street over million and quarter in hard
gold. The general government is still doing all in
its power to relieve the country, by dsbursng spe.
Gle. In addition to this, large amounts of specie
are tending to New York from Southern merchants
to pay old debts and purchase goods. .. ---

The gross amount of taxes for 1856, was $780,
4S7 49, and for 1857 $49O, 1853 S4 To this is to be
added the tax on bank stock, which in 1856 was
$l4,lS2 a3, and in 1857 $3S,9ss 70. The total
gross income from taxes was, therefore, for 1856
1894. .6l9 80, and for 1857 1924, 157 90; showing
difference in favor of 1857 of l29, ,537 27. The
nett public tax for 1856 $34 1913 81, exclusive
of the bank tax; and the nett public tax for 1857,
exclusive of the bank tax, is 457, ,422 46. The diff
ference between the gross and nett amounts given,
is accounted for by the commissions allowed the
shers. The total nett income, therefore, from pub
lie taxes for the year 1867, is $49I,411 81; or
$135, 1896 O4 more than in 1856 We have not in
cluded, however, in the nett tax for 1857, several
