A Remarkable Exhibit.

The exports from this country to Europe are
daily increasing. This Is particularly the case
with exports OF grain, which have assumed
enormous proportions, and are still growing
larger. The favorable condition OF our trade
In this particular Is shown by q transaction
which has just been made by the Treasury
department. There has been placed to the credit
OF the superintendent of the assay office at
New York the sum Of 81, 200, 900 In gold. This
movement OF gold is for the purpose of making
exchange In the payments for American pro-
duce which will soon become due There Is now
on its way to this country from abroad large
quantity of gold bars and foreign gold coin to
pay American grain shippers for their consign-
ments. This coin viii be taken to
the assay Office and weighed and left
there, the assayer drawing on the as
sistant treasurer In favor OF the depositor
bis checks Will be payable In gold or green
backs, as the holder may prefer In all recent
transactions the greenhack has, as a general
thing, been preferred. repetition may be
expected, under which circumstances the
amount OF gold coin In the Treasury, which "a
now $4,000 greater than IL was on the LIST of
January last, the date Of resumption, Will be
greatly increased. Even If American shippers
should prefer the gold to greenbacks. the
amount OF the yellow coin In the country at
large Will rapidly pile up. The placing OF the
S15,OOO,cOO In gold to the credit OF the ASSAY
ONCE In New York for the purpose mentioned
Is by far the largest ever made In the history
Of the country
