The current rates for foreign bills of ex-
change Indicate that whatever additions are
made by the Treasury disbursements to the
mercantile stock Of coin will be exported.
Tho calling in by the Secretary of fifty mil
lions in United States bonds for payment is a
force in the exchange market, the effect of
which in the present state Of oar commercial
and financial relations with the rest of the
world is of 10 trifiing importance. From
time TO time for five months past we have
discussed the gold premium, not as a bone of
contention between bulls and bears, but as
gauge OF the fnctuating value of our paper
money, and an element of disturbance in our
foreign and dsmestic trade. Our opinions
have inclined TO the position that in the pres
eut state Of our financial relations with other
countries higher price OF gold than ruled in
1874 il likely to be established and main
tanned, not III the result OF forced operations
in Wall Street, but as the outcome OF the reg
ular course Of trade. The current rates of cx-
change aud price OF gold tend TO strensth hen
these views.

The testimony elected at the first session OF
the Legislative Investigating Committee is
sufficient to warrant much Of the strong
language used by The Governor in regard to
the system Of Canal management which this
State has so long ignorantly borne. The
statements made by Auditor Thayer, al
though they have not yet reached the heart
Of the subject, show that tie whole adj
ministiation OF Canal affairs has been
characterized by carelessness winch betokens
an entire disregard of the interests OF the
State, and q wonderful lack of conscientious
ness in the discharge Of official duty. These
inevitably opened the door for nalfeasancc.
The man WHO would carry on his own private
business as the Canal Boards have managed
the business Of the State would be regarded
az a fool deserving bankruptcy. The facts
presented in the testimony of Mr.. Thayer are
not all new to the readers Of The TRIBUNE,
for or correspondents have gone over about
the same ground, but the testimony is valuable
and interesting rs aifoiding official confirm
alton of the disclosures made by the press
Such evidence should impress upon the Com
Inittee the importance of their present labors
and suggest new lines Of inquiry which may
be very proftably followed.
