AS to the probable expectation of gold.
the prospects have somewhat changed
during this week, as the swift revival of
the demand for tive.twentics for exporta.
ton after the check 1t received through
the treaty troubles, is interpreted to indi.
cate that we shall export bonds instead of
gold to pay much of our foreign Indebted.
ness; while tho brisk movement OF capital
this way will aid in checking tho shin.
ment of gold. The inference Is that the
gold which comes out of the Treasury,
will, 10 q fair extent, find It's way into our
banks, and help in replenishing their
legal tender reserves. In view oil these
and some other contingencies the price Of
gold has not taken that upward turn
weeks ago. '.' ~
AS to the future there is no abatement
OF confidence. Agood prosperous spring
trade is looked Tor if the money market
should be favorable. or this monetary
tranquility there is little doubt. For q

an adequate supply; and il the specula-
tors should adopt means for creating
artificial disturbance, the effects will, as
"e'e'o'ofe, be probably small and briet.

road and bridge question. II will DO seen
that while he perccivcs the impractica-
bility Of subscription TO either Of the
proposed roads by the municipality, I'm.
der the conditions imposGdsby the Iegis'
lature, he has faith that private capital
will yet take hold Of one or other Of these
roads and secure It's success; and likewise
that the existing restrictions rs to the city
will 10 withdrawn and did DO ultimately
extended by the city in its corporate CO,
pacity, Asto the latter, this could not be
done in any event ill the next meeting Of
the Legislature. 1t Gould not be expected
then unless Council should change It's
mind and ask TO have the conditions re.
pealed., That may happen of course, but
cannot now be anticipated with any GER
tainty. In what we had to say on this
point, in referring to SPECTATORS"
former letter, We meant only TO discuss
the existing situation. Council might alter
its mind If the bridge project should turn
out to be impracticablc, as our correspond.
cnt proposes to show it must.
AS it regards the enlistment Of private
capital, VIC have repeatedly expressed the
belief entertained by our correspondent
that the monicd and business men of the
city would consult their own interests by
giving generous assistance to one or
both these roads, but as yet there is not
much to indicate that they share this
opinion. We can join with our friend in
hoping they will yet realize this, and we
welcome all arguments and illustrations
that will tend TO convince them. The
objectiontha the people Of this city ought
not TO invest in railroad enterprises on the
soil Of another State is very APPLY an

the case of the Cleveland & Pittsburgh
road. It's really matter of no conse-
quence what territory road traverses II
it puts us in communication with the
country we want to reach, opens mar
kets for US and brings It's customers. AS
matter of fact and necessity these are
not to be found, except to a very limited
extent, on our own "sacred" soil, and il
we mean to reach them at all we must do
it over the territory of other States. Be.
sides commerce knows nothing of State
or county lines. The whole world is her
domain. ..
