THE GOLD MARKET
was only noteworthy from the fact that prices
went down to unusually low figures, with strong
desire to press them 10 even lower range. There
is strange belief pervading the minds OF a certain
class that we are verging towards a specie basis
and 1t IS good time to "hedge" on the possibill-
ties OF the future. general fact, however, must
always be borne in mind-t0 w.t. that Just
now there is an immense gap between the
volume OF unstable gold and the volume
OF currency. The great problem with govern
ment at the present moment, II we may accept the
recent statement oil President Grant, is how to
preserve sufficient amount OF specie to meet the
obligations OF the Treasury between this time and
the 1st OF January When this Is exhausted where
shall we BEEN route to specie paymentY The
amount Of disbursements to be made during the
next SIX months not short OF $57. 000 How
much is accruing weekly from customs receiptss
Now, either gold must largely accumulate-a point
that has been constantly urged in these columns
or currency must contract. The two systems Of
currency must in other words, approach each
other mora nearly before a third can be adopted
which will safely Ill the gap. We have $500 900, 600
OF paper. We have not Sl0o,0ooooo OF coin. In
deed. after the payment OF our direct and accrued
interest we have not sloOOo,o0O. What species OF
credit can this or any other government devise to
bridge the chasm? 1t is the problem OF the hour.
There Is a vast amount Of wild projecting on the
subject, as if mere assertion OF something to be
done could establish the most salient event OF the
century. Specie payment must have some basis

FRIDAY, Oct. 3. 1873
There was considerable activity in mercantile
circles to-day, and the markets were gener-
ally steady. The recession OF the gold premium
exerted depressing influence on the grain mar
ket, and this, combined with the extreme difficulty
in placing foreign exchange almost prohibited
business Of any magnitude in wheat, which
accordingly experienced decline in value,
and closed somewhat irregular. Corn was
dull and lower-though the receipts were
light. Oats remained scarce and firm. Whis-
key was again dearer and generally held still
higher. There was literally no market for pork,
which remained wholly nominal Lard was the
turn dearer but very quiet. Freights remained
firm with free offerings The shipments during
the past week. 1t may be remarked, have been
heavier than before during the same number OF
