CmcAuo, June 9l.--The demand for
money during the week has been a little
larger than last week, owing mainly to
the day Of settlement OF 'ChSnge drawing
nearer. The Board OF Trade men, how
ever were the banks best customers, and
they experienced no difficulty in obtaining
all the funds they ssked for, on warehouse
receipts Of grain and provisions, by paying
5aS per cent per annum. With Govern.
lnents US collateral money was loaned at 4
per cent. The demand for money by the
lumber men has been moderate, but from
other branches OF the mercantile trade
light. The flow OF currency to the interior
has been fair. Still the receipts have been
good. The bank clearngs for the week
loot up the total Of S2l ,4l0,075 06, being
A,SO4 ,9Gi 0S IN excess Of those for the
corresponding week last year.
Reports regarding the crops are less
gloomy. The hay crop is generally re-
PORTED TO be smaller than last year, but the
quality much better. The wheat and oats
tOPs are said TO bc better than previous
lrepdns indicated. The amount OF grain
IN sight in the States and Canada on the
.Iates named was: June l4th, aS,0l7, 900
bushels; June 7th, 30,590,000 bnshels;

rIIE NEGRO EXODUS.

Representative Whitthorne has forward
cd communication to Mr.. Goode, chair
man OF the House Committee on Educa.
ton and Labor, touching the propriety Of
the proposed Investigation into the cause
OF the recent Colored exodus from the
Southern States. After general review
OF the relations which existed between
the shareholders and the slaves, and an
alusion to the general good feeling be.
tween the whites and blacks at the close OF
the war, and a statement concerning the
immense loss inflicted on the South by the
lute civil strife, Mr.. Whitthorne says: In
Wow OF tho representations made from
time TO time that the pO.ored man
in tho South is denied his legal and
political rights, that heisdeprived ola just
and proper reward for his labor, and his
life and liberty Is constantly endangered,
It is important and instructive to test the
truth OF these representations outside OF
partisan statements. In comparing the
producttops Of the South since the war it
Is shown that from 1870 to 1878 there has
been au increase oi moro than three mil:
lion head OF cattle and swine. IN the
eight years preceding 1851 there was pro-
Uuceu Et,l4SlSoo juice VI CottVht nhASU
for tho last eight years there were pro-
duced SI,2sG .5Sl bales. In 1871 there
were 1857 so acres OF cotton cultivated,
while in 1878 there were more than II, :
0O0,O 600 acres cultivated, 1t Is estimated
by Whitthorne thatmore than $500, ,000, 600
of Southern labor products enter into the
PURCHASES oi merchandise and manufaC-
tured goods Of New England, New Jersey
and Pennsylvania. Thegross earnings Of
the Southern States are placed at 81, ,9Q7,
054 per annum, and II iS held that al the
principal cities and towns OF the 6oHtll
have increased decidedly in population,
and there is constant and general growth
OF manufacturing establishments. Statis-
tics are given showing that while farm Ia
borers in the Northern and Western States
are paid at the rate OF about 81 per 0apitsH
OF population his compensation exceeds
SO per capita Of population in the South
and thatin population Of q little more thar

only Sll4,902, ,364 Is paid. Looking to thest
