The above table shows further general advance
in prices. Stocks rose steadily on Monday, Tues
day and Wednesday; on Thursday reaction took
place, which lasted till Friday afternoon, since
when prices have again risen--so that the closing
quotations of the week are the highest recorded
for some months. The advance has been confined
to railway shares and government stocks; State
stocks have not participated in it. The govern
ment skies have risen ~ per cent during the
week; some of the railway shares have advanced
much more. The advance in Toledo durAg the
fortnight is equal to per cent, in guaranteed
to T. and in Erie TO G. Pacific Mail and Panama,
which did not sympathize with the rest of the
market when the advance began, moved again
yesterday and day before, and have risen as
much in the past three weeks as any stocks on
the list
The popular subscription TO the national loan
continues to justify the congratulations it elected
when it was inaugurated. About $25, 900 900 lave
been taken by the people already, and the aggre
gate subscriptions cannot fall far short of million
daily, though inconvenience is still felt at many
agencies from the want Of a steady supply OF the
notes The banks in this city have paid up &c per
cent OF their proportion of the first fifty millions
il the Boston and Philadelphia banks have paid up
as iHHci, the actuai amount OF gold thus far with
| drawn by government under the contract Of An.
| gust 10 amounts to 5000 900, and the actual
! amount of notes carried " by the banks atahe
present time is not over s13, 900, 900. Unless some
change should take place, it seems probable that
this load will not be materially increased hereafter
The payments into the Sub-Treasury on account
Of popular subscriptions so nearly balance the dis
bursements that the government balance remains
steady as it used to be in the quietest of times
Mr.. Cisco has now nearly eleven millions of dol
lars inject to the Secretary's check-havng
on drawn during the past fortnight ten per
cent Of the first $35 900 600 from the banks and
this at the urgent request Of some leading bank
officers. Tuesday next was the day which Mr..
Chase expected on August l6 to have exhausted
the whole of his first fifty millions. We now per-
ceive that he will have that day at least twelve
| millions Of that fund undrawn, and unless the
course OF financial affairs should change hereafter,
TINS haiance may remain unimpared for an indeii-
mte PERIOD to come. So long as the government
drafts are retained in circulation as currency at
The west, and the popular subscriptions equal the
Wa's winch are presented for payment at
the Sup-lreasury, no necessity will exist
for calling upon the banks for further pay.

The New York city banks win probably show an
increase of specie tomorrow, from the receipts
from California and the Mint. The disbursements
of government have been about equal to the re-
ceipts from the sale Of Treasury notes. and hence
no disturbance viii arise from this cause. Last
Monday the banks held $50 500 9Ol in specie being
an increase of 81 $3.50 $40 from the week Previous
at the corresponding date last year, when the
banks were deemed very strong, they held $780,
273,706 in specie--the Sub-Treasury holding 81
478, 445. Under Mr.. Cisco's administration Of the
loan it seems probable that its gradual issue will
take place without disturbing the enormous re-
serve of the banks, as the money will flow
back to bank as fast as it ia withdrawn
for the wants Of the government. Both
loans and deposits will show heavy increase to-
morrow. Last Monday the loans showed an in
crease of $22 AT 1872 and the deposits of $24 O55,-
6Sl. These amounts fall considerably short Of the
sum OF $35 100000 which, on LIST inst, was placed
to the credit Of government on account of.the
second fifty million loan. The statement tomorrow
will reflect the whole amount of the operation, and
it must be expected that the loans will foot up
nearly slG0 900, 900, and the deposits $3.50 OOo
Money is in brisker demand, in consequence OF
loans, sai nearly ii ths broken are glad to GET
money Isft with them at Ave. First class
paper continues very scarce, and favorite
names pass readily enough at 6 a per cent.
Names less favoraby known are current at all
kinds of rates, from one per cent month upward.
The impression prevails that, unless some accident
now unforeseen should occur, the money market
will remain in a condition of ease for some time to
come, though the rate may advance to seven per
cent for call loans in consequence Of the competi.
ton Of the general government
Foreign exchange closed with more frmness
yesterday. Bankers declined to sell under 1927
for sterng-some of them ask 1917, and 5.35 for
francs. Mercantile bills are scarce at LOG q q,
and 1864 5s24. 1t seems to be expected that
we shall have this week better supply of mercan.
tile bills, and that rates will decline in conse-
quence.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

SUNDAY, Oct. Is, 1861.
Our foreign trade continues to show a heavy
balance in favor of this country. We are importing
about half as much as we export, exclusive of spe-
Gle in both cases. Our imports last week
consisted chiefly Of coffee, sugar, cotton,
hides, saltpetre and guns. One Of the
items of import is l,406 bales of cotton from
Liverpool. The recent advance in the British
cotton market will put stop to this unnatural
movement. Our exports consist, as heretofore of
wheat, corn, provisions, oils, &c. The specie move
ment is light; nothing is going out, and the amounts
we are receiving from Europe are small, as the
latest adyices from there are in reply to letters
from here announcing an advance in exchange. In
the course of fortnight the bullion shipments from
England will increase. The following are the OIL
cial tables of the trade of the port for the week
and since January L.

TO be admitted with or without slavery
as their constitution shall determine.
The proposition as to the acquisition Of
new territory places the whole question
Of the future extension of slavery in the
hands of the North; slavery cannot be
extended except with the concurrence of
majority Of the Senators from the free
States.
The proposition as to slavery in the
States, in the District of Columbia, and
in dock-yards, and other public places in
the slave States, and as to the interstate
slave trade, cannot be reasonably object
cd to in any respectable quarter. twill
be observed that the right Of transit thro'
and of temporary sojourn in the free
States by masters with their servants is
not claimed.
The proposition as to the States being
at liberty to enforce the return Of fugitive
slaves by State laws, under the constitu
ton, is q concession to a sentiment that
exists to a considerable extent in the
north.
The proposition as to the foreign slave
and coolie trade ought to relieve north
ern sensitiveness of the apprehension il
has protested to feel that the South were
aiming at the re-opening of the African
slave traffic.
The proposition as to compensation for
fugitive slaves which northern mobs may
rescue is certainly right.
The proposition that negroes shall not
vote nor hold Office has our concurrence.
We agree to il fully.
The proposition as to amendment or
abolition of the clauses of the constitu-
ton relating TO fugitive slaves and the ba-
sis Of representation cannot be objected
to on any grounds of reason, fairness, or
right.
The Virginia Convention has done
well. 1t has not asked thing on behalf
of the South that ought not to be cheer
fully granted by the North. It's modera-
ton is entitled to all praise. Everything
it has asked is necessary to the security
of the slaveholding States and to the fl
nal settlement of the slavery question.
Doubtless the Border State Convention,
when it shall meet, will adopt substanti-
ally these Virginia propositions.
They will form just the issue that we
want here in the North-the issue of
whether the Union shall be preserved by
fair concession and compromise, or dis
solved by the refusal of it. Let us have
that issue.-Det. Free Press.
