TnE BANK STATEMENT.

The weekly statement of the associated banks is
unfavOrable owing to the locking up Of greenbacks
by the operators at the Stock Exchange and the
withdrawal Of legal tenders by the Treasury. The
small line OF foreign imports during the week has
enabled the banks to make gain in their specie
item. The deposits have increased over three mil
lions rejecting the return OF currency to the city
from tho interior, while the loans have been en-
larged nearly two millions. The statement com

WALL STREET,


SUNDAY, Dec. 8, 1879.
The course OF prices in Wall street during the
week has been affected by the tenor Of the several
State papers presented to Congress at the begin
ing of tho session on Monday and the development
OF great stringency in
THk MONEY MARKET.
The Washington reports were not OF the usual
roseate character Of such documents, and their
plain and frank speaking on several Of the leading
financial topics OF the time were not calculated to
encourage the speculation for rise at the STOCK
Exchange. In the first place the confession of
inability to make any further reduction Of the
taxes was q powerful influence OF itself against
buoyancy in the stock market, and the enunclation
Of the fact by the President in his Message was
followed by sudden decline In prices, especially
as the Secretary Of the Treasury followed with
recommendations to fix limit to the amount Of
currency to be allowed under
THE NATIONAL BANK SYSTEM,
the virtue of which system is rather lin decreasing
than in augmenting it's monopoly Of the banking
facilities Of the country Had Mr.. Boutwell, recon-
mended free banking instead OF asking to be al
lowed to reserve to the Treasury the power Of ex-
panding or contracting the volume of tho our
rency at pleasure, he would have struck the moro
popular sentiment on this important subject.
