The month Of October closes with nm easy
money market, no apprehension regarding the
monetary future, and very large business,
both Legitimate and speculative. Yet there are
not wanting unfayorablc symptoms, of which
the most threatening Is the serious decline in
exports
The bank statement IF Saturday was a sur
prise to many. Though the excess Of Treas
ury payments over other receipts than from
minis, from Wednesday the 18Th to Wcdnes-
day the 2Gth, had been only $75G,O79, aud it
had been reported by the leading banks that
more money had gone out of the city
than had returned to the city, the
banks reported on Saturday gain of
$3,l52, 400 in their average of reserve. 1t
cannot be supposed that this unexplained in
crease is due to the uneven working of the
average system. Either there have been very
large Undecided receipts of gold from the in
terror or specie amounting to several millions
has been returned to the banks, which was
withdrawn some tune ago, and held out of
bank or USE for the purpose of making money
more tight. About 81 800 900 in gold arrived
from Europe, and nearly that amount was dis
burscd on Assay Office account. As il was
supposed a week ago that about 81 IOO, 900
was on passage, and there have been
10 reports of shipments during the
past week. it may be presumed that arrivals
Of specie have ceased for the present.
The great disturbing force-the speculation
in grain and cCtton-has made no progress
toward higher prices during the past week
and is generally supposed to have been de-
feated and abandoned. Possibly there is fine
more danger because of this prevailing inn
preston, for the speculative spirit remains
and great many people have been induced
to sell grain aud cotton which they did not
own. Such sales Offer 20 large holders fine m
portunity 10 make another speculative adj
vance, and the fact that products are still
held at prices which prevent free exports
goes far to Indicate that renewal of tbe
speculative movement is intended.
Last week, the export clcaunces from the
seven principal Atlantic ports were only
$50 barrels Of flour, against 1875 for the
corresponding week last year only Los. sal
bushels wheat, against 1881, lO2 last vcor
and only 1,Gl4,GSj bushels corn. AGAINST
2,IS6,GG last year. In cotton, the decrease
in exports was also very large; only s5.24l
bales went from all ports against 135.g25
bales for the Same week last year. Petroleum
stll goes out in large quantities, but there is
great decrease in pork, lard, bacon, tallow.
cheese and butter The decline in exports
begins to have effect upon the specie
movement, nor is this strange, for it has con-
tinued ever since the fiscal year began The
official statements show that the value of ex-
ports of domestic merchandise, for three
months ending September 80, 1851, was
$3.50, ,73l, against 5000 551575 for the
same months III 1850, but the decrease in Sep

tember alone was $s,947,S81. Meanwhile, the
value of imports of merchandise for the
three months was $169,716,S71, against
S166, 79s, 500 last year, and the increase in
September alone was $2,430,375. But the
movement at New-York alone} during the
last four weeks, shows results still more
unfavorable, for domestic exports hence
have decreased 1882, 1924, while imports
here have increased 81 PSI, 962. 1t is but the
plain truth that the financial situation cannot
be considered free from danger, however easy
the money market may appear, so long as
speculation arrests the free exportatlon-ot our
surplus products, and causes them to accumu-
late in vast quantities at the commercial
centres.
During the past week, it is true, the receipts
of grain at the interior points have not greatly
exceeded the shipments, for the moderate
decline in prices has checked arrivals from the
farmers. The advance of railroad rates,
Also and the expectation of a further
advance have stimulated shipments to the
seaboard especially with those dealers
who have not secured time contracts at
low rates. But during the past month the re-
ceipts of grain at Chicago and Milwaukee have
Decn lo,OOO,OOO DuSutlh, Nllllc lnc SiIplhOhIo
by all routes have been only 9,186,O00 bush
els. The decrease in the receipts at Atlantic
ports, in comparison with corresponding weeks
last year. has been over 40 per cent at
New-YOrk, over 80 per cent at Baltimore,
and over 70 per cent at Philadelphia, while
at Boston there has been slight increase.
Ten days have passed since the Secretary of
the Treasury invited holders of called three
and a half per cent bonds to present them
at any time for redemption at par and
accrued interest. The amount received
has been very small, for when the
the notice was given So, COS, 900 had been pur-
chased at Washington, and about $2,0OO,OOO
had been included in the bonds purchased at
New-York, and yet the entire anountreceivcd at
the close of business on Saturday was only
ST. 1864 800. Unless the bonds go i'm, the Treas
ury will be obliged to hold enough Of its sur
plus revenue for their redemption. 1t seems
probable, there ORE that there cannot be eX-
pccted further important disbursements for
bonds by the Treasury, at least until the
money market has become decidedly stringent.
Since October l. the stocks of cotton at the
ports have so increased that they represent
about So, 100000 more money than was thus
locked up ut the beginning of the month.
With the Treasury closed because its reserves
for some time to come axe fully employed,
with the supply of gold from abroad cut off,
and with diminishing exports, a renewal OF
active speculation might yet cause considerable
embarrassment.

determined to shoot him there. During the
last week of the Presidents active life, Guiteau
logged him, and watched the White House
constantly. Just before the shooting he de-
scribes himself as walking up and down to
work himself up" to the point Of firing. He Is
a lawyer, and has taken keen interest In the
preparation of his defense, making number
of suggestions regarding it.
The man is a psychological rcuriosity, but
not, therefore, irresponsible. Insanity as a
defence against punishment for crime is four
hundred years old but the gist of all the prec-
edents fixed since that time under the English
law is the question whether at the time OF com
hitting the act the criminal could distinguish
between right and wrong. In the United
States, each State having its own law, the re-
suit has been great diversity. While IN
some the English rule has been adhered to, III
others second branch has been added raising
the question of the ability of the defendant to
control his actions. These may be called the
exact methods of dealing with the subject;
what can be perhaps justly described as the IN
exact is to leave the matter in all its bearings
practically to the decision Of the jury. Every
reader can guess for himself what the verdict OF
an intelligent jury upon Guiteaus case would
probably be under any of these rules.

moment as the Ministry was about to he
sharply assailed in the Legislature for the
manner in which it has conducted the war;
Although there is much ground for com
ment, success, in the French mind,
condones many plumbers. The advent
of Gambctta to the Premiership will also
serve to break the force of the gather
ing storm, as the Cabinet which began and
conducted the war must soon give place
to that which he is about to form. The pro-
posed treaty with England and the consttu-
tional reforms that have been suggested will,
however, occasion stormy debates. Those Radicals
who followed the leadership of NJ. Louis Blanc
have already manifested an aggressive dispo-
sition, and, although small in numbers, they
may prove troublesome opponents.

The absurd charge that General Hustled, the
Republican candidate for State Treasurer, had
originated and advocated legislation I'M
friendly to the mutual insurance associations
is disproved completely by the evidence given
in another column. General Hustled shows
that. having introduced the bill referred to by
request, he moved in the Assembly to strike
out the enacting clause as soon as he dis
covered that it interlered with the mu-
tual associations that he afterward supported
bills prepared in the interest of these associa-
tons, and is himself member and officer in
several of them. General Husted's statements
respecting his action in the Assembly are con-
firmed by such diverse political authorities as
Mr.. johnson, the Republican Clerk Of Assem-
bly,, and The Argus, the Democratic organ Of
Albany, and by the representatives of these
associations before the Legislature.

"ALDERNEY BRAND"
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1881-10-31

The rainfall has helped the water supply ma
terially. though the total gain, so far as known,
is only fraction of what is needed to restore
the reservoirs to their normal state. Up to 8
O'Clock yesterday morning there had been a
total rainfall of half an inch, which, though Of
little moment i'll ordinary times, in a season
of dronth comes as a real blessing. The
statement of the Chief Engineer that it
will be necessary to use economy until
four or FIVE inches of rain have fallen,
shows that we are yet far from the point,
however, when the precautions which have
been in force to prevent the waste of water
can be relaxed. The rains have been so light
that if they were to come to an end now, the
possibility of water famine would not be
removed, but would only be more remote. If
the storm should pass off to-day, as 1t is not
unlikely to do, the situation OF the city would
be somewhat better than it has been, but yet
not essentially different.
