ESPECIAL TO THE EUREKA DAILY SENTINEL.

Our Ronds will be Taken i'm Pref
erence to any others
NEW YORK, April IS.
A prominent banker, a member of the
| syndicate, SAYS the enormou retail trade
of the past week shook the entire l0:40
line, and bankers saw the necessity of Sc
curing them all at once. One of the hap
piest effects of this large subscription will
be to advance the prices of the four per
cent. bonds in the English market, and
mako them much sought after. These
enormous subscriptions only illustrate the
great material development of wealth in
the United States during the last three
years, which passes the understanding not
| only of Europe, but of our own financial
men. The evidence of it is in our ability
to import and pay for, with our surplus
exports principally, all the loose United
States securities held abroad, so that the
amount held there, which five years ago was
$500, 900 900 to ST 900, 900, 900, cannot now
be over ono eth, and possibly one-sixth of
that amount. The entire importation of
bonds has taken place without any ma
terial export of gold, and has been paid
for altogether in our own products. The
current Of feeling and expectation in Lon
don a month ago was that, when We came
to the April settlement, there would be q
crash, another suspension, and a call upon
England for help. The English will begin
to realize the greatness of this country,
and our bonds will be taken in preference
to any others in the world.
Preparations for the Reception of
General Grant.
PHILADELPHIA, April IS.
The Council to-day continued the COM
mittee appointed by last years body to pre-
pare for the reception of General Grant at
San Francisco. Colonel Charles Thomson
Jones, who made the motion, said tho
Council had decided when Grant left here
that they would receive him on his return,
and it would be done. The General said
he expected to make Philadelphia his home
in the future, and the Colonel, ETC., thought
it no more than proper that the Council
should send a delegation to California to
escort him home. He, the speaker, was
going to California whether anybody else
wsnt or not. / have no objection, said Mr..
Beckett, to the gentleman from the Twenty
first Ward going into the Cabinet, but /
cannot see the point Of sending a commit
tee all the way to California to receive a
private individual. Mr.. Copeland, in an
swer, said he clearly understood the dis
like Democrats had to General Grant.
They hated him before he took Vicksburg,
and have been hating him ever since for
taking 1t and whipping their Southern
friends. Mr.. Beckett replied, "As o Demo-
crat, l love General Grant"
