The crop Of 1866 was exceedingly, prolific and
with very heavy receipts from the West, wshaye
transacted an unusually large business for the
year. The stock onhand at New York on the LIST
of January, 1866, was 4, 101,704 bushels, and the
demand for export and for home consumption was
active and satisfactory throughout the year at all
of the leading ports. Our receipts amounted to

There has beena very heavy business transacted
in Flour during the past year, and prices have
ruled throughout at amply remunerating figures.
A very large proportion of Western Flour has
been made from damaged Wheat, as will be seen
by the remarks under the latter heading, but we
may indulge the hope that no considerable guam
tity of the damaged article has found It's way to
this market. We annex the ruling figures for SUI
perfine at the'close of every month, and add
the aggregate receipts and exports for the year,
as follows, viz: s 5

The change in our labor system having partially
many years was most potent one in this State,
we have no heart to indulge in elaborate re-
marks upon the subject. Instead of being large
exporters of Sugar and Molasses, we are now
heavy importers of those articles. as may be seen

The movement in this article shows very ma
terial reduction as compared with that exhibited
by the annual returns for several previous to
thewar and prices have fuctuated throughout
from week to week, and not unfrequentiy every
day, to correspond with the alterations in the
gold market The subjoined remarks and state
ment prepared by H. 7. Lonsdale, ESQ., embrace
all that is necessary for full understanding of
the condition of the market from the close of the
war to the 30h June, 1866, as well as the general
operations at all other important commercial
centers dusing the same period: 4e =-l a3l
The market closes very quiet, owing to the
great fluctuations in the rates for gold from hour
to hour, SO that it makes it impossible to give
correct quotations in gold Second hands are re-

the decrease being A "a cent. The South and
Southwest were then the greatest consumers but
the present high prices and the impoverished

i Transactions in this article have been
very light for the year. and in fact the trade in it
may be said to have been almost wholly directed
to other markets during the war. Late in the
season there was some evidence of partial re-
vival of the business noticeable, however, but the
operations for the year compare very unfavorably
with those of previous annual statements, as will
be seen by the following:

TUESDAY, Feb. 9th, 1866.
The House was called to order at 10 O'Clock
! A. NJ
| The journal of yesterday was read and approved
Mr.. Garland introduced ga bill to alter the
| county lines between the counties of Iancey and
Mitchell" Referred to the committee on Propo
sitions and Grievances
Mr.. Hoke, ga bill for the relief of R. B. Paschal

Mr.. Hutchinson, bill to incorporate the Rudi
sill Gold Mining Company, in Mecklenburg coun-
| ty. Referred to the committee on Corporations.
Mr.. Bryson bill to authorize the election of a
taX-colector for the county of Jackson. Referred
| to the committee on the Judiciary.
| Mr.. Chadwick, memorial from citizens of Ora
ven and Beaufort counties, praying the creation
of new county from portions of three respective
counties. Referred to the committee on PROPOSE
tions and Grievances.
ON CALENDAR.
| The resolution restricting debate introduced by
Mr.. Hodnett on yesterday was rejected-not re-
ceiving two-thirds vote.
A bill to give further security to widow for her
years provision, passed it's second reading. On
motion of Mr. Ashworth the rules were suspend
ed and the bill, after further discussion, passed
its final reading.
SPECIAL ORDER.
At II o'clock the House proceeded to reconsider
the bill to amend the Hath chapter, Revised Code,
in relation to usury.
out wherever it occurs, the word ten, the maxi
mum rate of interest to be legalized as between
parties making special contracts for loans, and
inserting seven instead.
Mr.. Cameron opposed the amendment. It was
obvious to every one upon reflection, that money
should be put upon the same footing other
commodities and its price regulated by the law
of supply and demand. Money, when plenty,
could always be had at moderate rates. Under the
existing usury laws, unlawful interest had been ex-
| acted in many instances. They had brought into
being, in most communities note-shavers, wolfsh
creatures, who went round to the different courts
with the stealthy tread of cat, exacting usurious
interest for loans and pressing their nefarious
claims to the earliest possible collection.
Mr.. Burton, for the same reasons given on yes
terday, still opposed to the passage of the
bill it would have the effect of raising the rate of
interest on the debt existing in the State, and
would only aid the trading and specializing por-
ton of the community, the masses not desiring
to borrow at higher rate of interest than is now
allowed by law, and gave case in point that
if a merchant could be allowed to borrow money
at 10 per cent. and should do SO, the consequence
would be that he would at once turn on his deb
tors have his bonds renewed, and incorporate in
them the like rate of interest which they might be
forced TO do rather than be sued and SO in the
case of all other debts in existence. In times
of ease he would not be opposed to the bill, but
thought it would be exceedingly oppressive to the
ldebtor at this time.
