FINANCIAL and COMMERCIAL.
Bad "Break" in the Stock
Market.
ALMOST A PANIC.
Confidence Restored Before the
Close.
WALL STREET. |

MONDAY Oct. 1876 p. M. .
To employ q vulgar but somewhat apt illustration.
1t may be said that IL the financial apple cart stopped
short OF being entirely tipped over to-day 1t at
least showed looseness of its tail-board which
allowed stock values to dribble away in q manner
rather startling to the neophytes in stock specula-
ton. As plain matter of fact there recession
to-day prices. Recently hedged spectators. with
scarcely than down their wings. called it
panic; old birds in full feather termed 1t natural
reaction. Looking at it through the binoculars of
twenty years experience. 1t was this latter and
"nothing more" To us the only wonder is.
not that the market should have dropped at
all, but that it should have dropped SO little.
With everything forced up to the bursting
point there was no reason to expect an
explosion. but nothing came Of it but cracking of
stock values that the worst limited to decline
of three or four per cent and in most
fined to y more matter OF fractions The main point
in the whole matter rested in the fact that for the
first time in many days the of prices
reversed. and from continually going up it began
to go down. Opening fairly steady at Saturdays
closing quotations. the market quickly sub
jected to brisk selling movement. which fattened
out prices considerably. Erie tumbled from Ala
to 373S, Delaware aud Lackawanna from 7s to TAX.
Western Union from 96a4 to 04. New jersey Central
from 10 to 6s and St. Louis Kansas City and Northern
from 30H to $685. 10 greater or less degree the
entire list sympathized. and it was a lucky stock
indeed that did not come out of the days melee
one two per cent worse off than when
1t entered it. Briefly, the days business was
characterized by general surge downward-not an
alarming one SO far and possibly threatening no
further decline, though the market could stand
something more of the same sort with positive
benefit to its future career Opinions very
much divided as to whether to-day's decline is at-
tributable to settled reaction only to what is
known in street parlance as SCOOP" 1t is quite
certain that two Broad street firms were
vigorous sellers, and 1t is equsly certain that
two trust companies were moro critical as to the
collaterals offered to them loans and were in
clined to advance upon them less freely. During
the last hour general Improvement set in. and the
market closed with u recovery Of something like
half the loss that had been made but still irregular
and feverish and quite prepared for another

Nine. de CaSSagnac.

Paul de Cassagnac is bringing action
against five journals for saying that his
wife wants to leave him. She is con
nected with the Antonelli family, and
was to have inherited great fortune.
Peace does not reign in the little man.
sion to which Paul brought her home,
in the Rue de BoulOgne 1t is filled
with souvenirs Of women who were at
various phases OF Paul's career the mis-
tresses of his soul. There is a portrait
of Desclee round which gilt crowns
thrown to her on benefit nights are
hung; in the smoking-room traces of
Mesdames de Beaumont and the Bri-
mont abound, and there are statuettes
of little boy and girl, children of a
wench to whom it was thought Paul had
given for their sake legal status. A
boudoir is literally papered With notes
from the Empress Eugene, which are
framed. Paul reproaches himself with
having brought his masculine beauty to
a wretChedly bad market. He is an ex-
travagant dog, and, unless for fencing, q
lazy one as well. When he proposed
for Mile. Accard, he understood she had
a splendid doWry, whereas she did not
bring him as much as would pay for
her wedding-dress, which, it appears;
was bought on credit. He was up to
his eyes in debt, and still is. The inval-
ldatiOn Of his election is a very hard
financial blow, as it deprives him of
fourteen months salary which was to
have been used to pay off the most I'M
patient creditors.

The Weather for 1879.

Richard Mansill's Almanac Of Plane
tarv Meteorology," for 1879, has the fol-
lowing: If the positions of the planets
affect the temperature Of our earth's
atmosphere during the year 1879, as
they have doTe, when in similar posi-
tons, during the past years, (particu-
larly the positions that give us the mild
winter Of 1677-76 and early spring Of
1878, we may expect vely cratic sea-
sons during 1879. Agreeable to this
theory we shall have cool weather set
in early in the autumn Of 1878; it will
grow cooler s0meWhat faster than the
mean Of the leason in November and
through December, with temperature
below the man; tolerable steady cold
weather through January, with temper
ature below the mean: winter Will con-
tinue through February. followed by a
cold March. We shall be fattered by
the prospect Of spring during few days
about the middle of April, while Mer-
curry is about passing its inferior con-
junction with the sun, but this will soon
pass away ard the weather or tempera-
ture sink below the average of the sea-
son, and will probably remain below the
mean throughout May, June, and July
while we shall move into hot, stormy
summer about the last days of August,
and theseconditions continuing through
Septembe and October. Between the
autumn and winter months cool
drouths viii likely prevail over large
landed countries in the temperate zone,
located farfrom the seas; while an ex-
cess of cod rains will probably occur
on and a,out the sea-coast countries
during theSame term.

AGRICTITTRE.

These statistics, incomplete as they are, fully
justify all that has been said or claimed for our
agricultural Interests as being the leading and by
lar most lmpOria ant Industry or the state ana lndI
cate that the money appropriated to the state and
county agricultural societies, which have done so
much to foster and develop our agriculture re-
sources. has served beneficial purpose. / see no
good reason why the usual appropriation to the
state society should not be made permanent.
CONCLUSION.
Although the limits to which l have deemed it
eXpedient to cOnfine myself in this communica-
ton, preclude allusion to many topics of interest
and have neceSSiated the omission of several para
graphs prepared for insertion herein, l cannot
forbear to congratulate yOu that the United States
has resumed It's normal relations to its own citi-
zens; and the world at large, by paying on demand
all its matured obligations in money current
wherever ciyi izatIOn extends that this has been
accomplished without any unnatural contraction
or the currency, or violent shock TO the business

SOME time ago announcement was
made that large quantities of trade dol
lars were being accumulated by specu-
lators at commercial centres in China,
the purpose being to return such dol
lars to the United States in the expecta-
ton that congress would give them the
legal tender quality. Reports received
at the state department from American
consuls, show that in many parts of
China these coins have been so mutila-
ted as to make them useless as curren-
cy. The cOnsuls at Amboy, Foochow,
and Nlngpo report that the American
trade dollar has been so mutilated in
" chopping" by the Chinese merchants
at the places named, as to render them
undesirable as a circulating medium.
This practice, which had its origin in
rule made by mercantile houses in the
south of China, requiring each firm to
guarantee the genuineness of dollars
paid out by affiXing to each coin It's
: chop" or firm name, and which was
done by stamping with q die upon the
face OF the coin. has grown into such an
bbuse that current dollars are defaced
aeyond all possibility of recognition,
and not infrequently coins are found in
circulation through which holes have
been punched. In some cases there is
reason, to believe the date has been
displaced by gouge, ana a small por-

ton Of the metal has been taken from
the coin. This practice also prevails in
Hong Kong. Coins thus mutilated
would not, of course, be accepted at
their face in the United States, even
though the trade dollar be given the Ie-
BARTENDER quality. and holders of them
would be forced to dispose of them as
so much bullion. To the extent. there
fore, that trade dollars have suffered
mutllation by the "chops " of Chinese
merchants, the amount of these coins
outstanding for all purposes of money
may be said to be reduced.

The Volcano of Santa Ana in San Sal
vador continues its eruptions with
ceaseless activity. 1t is thought by
many to be connected with the Izalco,
and to be one ofits fues or escape pipes.
The clouds of fine dust and ashes which
issue from it are identical in character
with those emitted by the Izalco. The
dust is very fine calcined powder, and
IS found to possess peculiar medical
properties, particularly in the cure Of
wounds, etc.
