OUR RAILROAD BoNps .-Bonde against the
city Of Rock Island, given for payment Of
stock in the Chicago & Rock Island railroad
company, are due to the amount Of go, 500 90
on the lst day Of next month,--also six
months interest on $50, 600 90.
The road has been doing an extraordinary
business during the last six months, and the
directors ought to declare dividend, W hich
would nearly pay tho interest then due. But
will they do 1t?
The stock we own in the railroad company
is pledged to the boudholdcrs for the payment
Of the bonds when they become due. What
doour people propose to do about paying the
500, 800 60 due the l,t day Of May? 1t is
not probable that they will wish to be taxed
that amount, this year, in addition to the
amount which will be necessary to carry on
the city goyerDmcnt-besides paying our
state, county and school taxes, and the addi.
tioual take, which will be assessed upon them
in consequence Of the war.
Wccan see no other course to take, then,
except To- ouleavor to make an arrangement
with the bondhoIdcrs for an extension Of the
time Of payment, or al!ow the railroad stock
to goto sale The mayor is endeavoring to
obtain an extension of the time Of payment,
but we have ljtte or no hope that it can be
done. The mayor Of Davenport has already

Financial and Commercial Summary
for the Past Week.

In money matters there has been little or no
change; the abundance of unemployed capital
continues, and good business paper scarce and in
demand at 8 to IL per cent. the prevailing rates
being l0al2. The demand Treasury notes, now
made legal tender by act of Congress, as well
as those to be issued, are the standard currency
throughout the country, and have taken the place
of gold in the liquidation of all Indebtedness.
The Indiana banks are redeeming their issues
with these notes, but the Ohio banks do not, they
have suspended "sccordng to law" Yet some
of our bankers In this city think that this ought
not to be tolerated. and Notwithstanding this sus-
pension, their notes ought TO be redeemed in
Treasury notes. at least, and threat is made to
place the notes of the Ohio banks on the uncur-
rent list, should the proprietors persist in this
course. Notwithstanding the inconsistency of
this demand, il is not improbable that il will be
done. The Ohio bankers, therefore, had better
take warning in time and "resume" specie pay
ment, and redeem in the Government currency.
The market has ruled firm for exchange and
steady at pa. buying and u prem. selling rate.
The demand has been about equal TO the supply.
Gold dull at la2 prem the latter the selling rate.
but there is no demand worthy of note.
The weather has been chilly, with rain and
vegetation in this vicinity yet, so that the spring
is rather backward t
The opening Of the Baltimore 4 Ohio Railway
has been the great event of the week. This took
place on Monday, for both freight and passengers.
This is of immense importance to the West. and
resulted in a general decline in rates Of freight.
The closing of this greet tboroughfare, the last
ten months, by the rebels, has been loss to the
people of the West which cannot be well esti
mated, and its great importance as a great lead
ing route to the seabosrd has been demonstrated
