CTSAsTUlAIa. Oif ics or rax Isdiajtapoijh Hkntimei 1 Monday Evening, March 17, 1879. The local money market has been unusually quiet during the entire wee It. The supply of funds held by the banks has been and Is at present amply sufBoient to meet all demands of legitimate business, and strictly gilt edge commercial paper Is being negotiated at the usual rates of interest. CURRENCY M ATTF.KS. , The controller of the currency has Just polished an abstract of the statements of the National banks of the United States, showing U: a state of their affairs on January 1, 1879, the date of specie payment resumption. We print beiow the leading Items, and for purposes of comparison, place them in contrast with corresponding totals obtained from the statement of Juuuary 1, 1875: " RESOURCES.

It is worth while to observe particularly that the banks which the Government has made the representatives of the money power and the agency of domestic exchange and currency held at the inauguration of specie payments 11,000,000 of specie against 313.OJ0.OJ0 of outstanding notes, a specie reserve of 13 per cent. Their demand liabilities to individual depositors and noteholders amounted to 916,000,000, on whieh their specie reserve was 4 percent. The average amount of specie held by each bank was 130,00), and the average circulation outstanding was about 8145.090. Greenbacks, however, were a valid payment on all demands, and the sura of greenbacks and specie was 112,000,000. The sum of specie, greenbacks, and dues from the treasury, was 158,090,0t0, against 260,000,000 on January 1, 1875. The sum of specie and greenbacks was 112,000,003, ajainst 103,003,000 on December 20, 1877. On January 1 the treasury department held 225,009,000 of tpscie, which included the bulk reported as held by the National banks, certificates being counted as specie. New York Financial Marliei.

With regard to the Chicago hog market and the packing seasou, we take the following from the Chicago Commercial Bulletin of the 15th Inst.: With the close of the last regular packing season March 1, 1878 came the final report showing the reason's work to be the heaviest on record the summer season was also the largest, and speculations were in order as to whether the summer season of 1878, and the winter season of 1878-9 would reach tne aggregate of tne previous seson. The heavy stock of provisions hog products of all kinds held at the close of the seasou of 1877 8, was looked npon by many as a sort of embargo on the packinc trade, and this, with tbe fecarcityof ice following an open winter, and tbe high price of this ueceatary adjunct to summer packing, created among many opeiatora the opinion teat the final returnsof thesuinmer's woWt would t-bow a Uecieae. Others, however, expressed opinions 'avorablo for an increased business, bating their belief on the libers-.! supply f hogs, and a natural stimulus to the trade which would be imparted by low - pi ices for hogs, which would also naturally follow for the product. Subsequent events proved the correctness of the latter views, and now that the Bummer's work Is over bud the winter season has closed a careful retrospective view of tbe trade shows that tbe b'usiiess transacted has bn the iitrgestoa record by a heavy percentage, the prices among the lowt, however, but still not nnreinuneratlve to the producer. fcUch of tbe"Miraiuer months" from March to October, inclusive. hs shown a liberal increase In the supply of bogs over the corresponding month ol li77, although with one exception the avera; weight has shown decrease. The asaresate supply ot hnt;s for the eiglir. months was 3,139,315 against 2,Ml,'Xi fur the same time the previous season, and the average weight ranged from 241 lbs for March down to 2Z1 lbs for My, stendily improving in 240 lbs tn September t. 2- ib in Octoier. and the average for the eight mouths was 233.31 iba aga;nt 'i-ii .79 lfs for the su miner season of 1877. The purchase of shippers showed coaslderabie lncrea.He, a fact dre to an Increase in the packing business at Kastern point), the relative butter (supply of ice and lower prices therefor IncreaM.ig the business of cuttine. aud tbe snipments aggregated 1.001,114 hoes against 720,435 for the season of 1877. leaving 2,lf,2t!l bnai for Chi cago's summer packing and home consumption. The ours of wiues was decidedly on lhe down erade. the season OJeni list nt 3.70a 4.10 per 100 lbs., and gradually nd hleadily deellnine to as the averatte valuation flurlnthe month ot May. Tbe montnsof July and August witnw::d reaction. A material decrease iu the supply, & poor quality of hogs, and an active sUipp'.r g demxnd. aided by a good ioc-U packiua inquiry, cheakod tne de-

cllnlug tendency and started prices on the upward turn, the average for August belug about S1.25 per 100 lbs. As the summer season gradually grew near to a clone the market began to weaicen, and it became evident that the st ck of both summer and winter cured product at the opening of the regular season would be large. The yellow fever plague at. the South had cut off temporarily, at least, a large portion of the usual y active consumptive demand from- that ouarter. and our foreign friends and customers were inclined to proceed with caution, and were not disposed to contract heavily for the future, preferring to hold back and send in their orders as they were required, and the inactivity in te provision trade naturally reacted on the hog market, and prices reached the lowest point of the summer season, 13.25 per lt lbs. bing the average for the month of October. The receipts for this month increased to 491,313, and the average weight to 252 lb., and packers were outting with more freedom, while many were getting their houses in readiness for the opening of tne winter season. THK CATTLE TRADE. No little interest is felt throughout the West in the discussions relating to the shipment and disease of cattle. The New York Journal of Commerce says : The owners of Infected or "suspected" cattle are asking the Legislature to indemnify thorn in future tor the loss of animals when killed by order of the State authorities. A bill has been introduced in the Assembly to amend the law to this effect. The claims sbould be allowed on two erounds. It is only lust and

right that these losses should be made good to the owners whose cattle ara slaughtered to prevent the spread of an epizooty. By recognizing this principle of indemnification the St ate officers would reel more free than at present to extirpate the disease by radical measores. They naturally dislike to order the destruction of other persons' property when they know that no compensation will be made for it. Instead of a policy of extermination, which o'ht to be pursued amoug all ha:ds w:iere the disease has broken out. a temporizing quarantine system is adopted. The attempt is made to i.soute herds and watch them aud prevent the malady from pasln some real or imaginary cordon. This plan has never been wholly successful throuuh want of vigilance, or be cause the viewless air Is the medium by which the infection may be borne to great distances, for aught we know. Theonlysure treatment is the speedy death of every group of cattle among which pleuro-pneumonia has shown itself. This seems an expensive remedy when the State pays for the cattle slain but It may cost no more than lhe maintenance of a long quarantine, with salaried men in attendance, and medicines and disinfectants freely used lor the same herd. At the Blissville stables the bills tor quarantine in 17 days were at least 1900, it is said, and there is no certainty that the disease will be checked at that point. If the law were amended to provide for the payment, in whole or part, of the losses sustained by stock owners in cattle killed for the public good, the hesitation which now prevents the slaughtering of animals, out of regard to their owners, would cease, and with it much of the useless quarantine also. The expense of either process is a secondary question. Tho main thing is to expel the disease from the United S:ates and reopen .the export trade in live cattle. That can most cheaply and effectually be done Oy killing, not by quarantining, Infected herds. The New York Bulletin of recent date has the following: The recent order of the English Privy conncll, under which all live cattle shipped from this country to British ports must be slaughtered wit bin 10 days after landing, has haa the effect of almost entirely suspending shipments from Philadelphia, in consequence of the expense attendant on complianc? with the new regulation, which would render such ventures profitless. The Ledger, in making this announcement, says: "Before the order was promulgated, arrangements had been made by one firm of cattle dealers here to ship weekly tor nine mouths 410 head of live cattle from this port: but these have now been abandoned, and ibe vessels Intended for the trade are being nsed for the transportation of grain, which is now going forward at a li vely rate. Philadelphia dealers assert that their cattle are in good condition and free from any unnea'thy taint, and that if they were allowed a longer time than that specified in the order beiore ripins comnelled to slaughter, and be permitted to transport their stock on the hoof over ILOgiisu railways, tne .ngusii people, eDeciallv those who desire cheap beef, would become convinced of the truth of the asser tion." THK SUGAR TRADE. During the apst few months there has been a great deal of talk regarding the artificial coloring of sugar. To show how far the matter has goue, we clip the following from the New York Bulletin or Saturday: "It was reported yesterday that the experi ment of washing Demarara sugar in order to ascertain wueiuer n. una ueen arwiiuiHiiy uiored bavins failed, the secretary of thet.reas ury has Issued an order directing that all Cu ban centrifuaal sugars arriving at this port be polarissd and otherwise tested In order to ascertain whether they are artificially col-wed after crytllizatlon. In cases where thesugir isfonudtobe artificially colored an additionai;duiy of three quarters of a cent per pound will be added as a penalty. The order of the Secretary provides that, the basis of this test shall be that sugir ot ui aegrees snail ue conMuerea as graumg as o. 7 uuicn stanarra, TAnY RECEIFT3 AND SHIPMENTS. j Ueuelpui Bhipinst Flour, bt. 4,400 4,900 9.6T0 34,20 Wheat, bu.

Reform SeniaaMled In the Cultivation . of Ibis Crop. Country Gentleman. J It Is getting to be fairly well understood now by onr bi st farmers that as in tbe casa of wheat, so in that of Indian corn, we must reiorm our memous 01 cultivating this crop altogether. The land must be plowed in the fall, and ia order to secure to the soil its best condition, the stalks of tbe year's crop, wbrn corn succeeds corn, must be plowed nnder. Just before planting time, the field must have a comparatively shallow (but thorough) going over with a light plow, a double shovel, or a sharp, long-toothed harrow, which operations not only destroy the startiDg weeds, bnt prepare a good seed bed. Good ceed having been selected with care.and kept so well in a dry place that the germ is ready to start at tbe contact of warmth and moisture, it must bs committed to a planter which will insure even depth, covering and distribution of seed, from one end of the held to tbe other. After planting, the field most be rolled if tbe soil is drv. and har rowed if moist, bnt left severely alone if wee As soon aa the young plants show in the rows, the harrow must he set going again, lo be followed by the cultivator, reimorced (tf necessary) by the hoe, until the growth is so large as to render the movement of a horse or mule through the rows too laborious and exhausting. In short, a good stand must be bad at first and kept to end, and the weeds most be subdued and destroyed. When these instructions are followed and the le gitimate result a strong, full, upright croD is obtained; at the epoch of winter wheat seeding, some time after the middle of Sep tember, the grain may be sown in tbe stand ing corn by being thrown broadcast and then covered by a double shovel, or out in by a two or three or ere spout drill, made tor tne purpose. At nsrvest the corn may be cut and pat into shocks, or husked from the row, tbe stalks left standing to protect lhe wheat herbage during the winter, to be thereafter rolled or broken down some time before the frost is out of tbe ground. When wheat succeeds corn, as in tbe manner de scribed, or when oats, as a spring crop, are town on tbe corn stubble of tbe previous year, tne succeeding crops of corn are invariably found to be vastly increased. Indeed the increased crops of Indian corn which are pretty sure to follow immediately after wheat or oats, are thought to be sufficiently large to warrant the practice of this simple rotation, even though, so far as tbe yield or gsin is concerned, the oats or wheat ar wholly lost. On the strong, black soils of Illinois, and I believe of ail other soils equally rich in nitrogen, if tbe object ot the cultivator is to get tbe very largest possible yield of shelled corn, wood or coal asbes, or superphosphate of lime are far prelerable to barnyard manure, since the latter Is sure to stimulate immense growth of stalk and leaf, at the expense of ear, while the former seems to have the etlect of dwarfing leaf and siaik growth, and increasing the length of the ear and siz and depth of tbe kerneL At least such bos been the experience of tbe writer, and such of a not-long ago correspondent of the Country Gentleman, who, writtiug from Tennessee, told bow the corn grown on the river bottoms attained prodigious development of stalk, both in netgtit and diaraeter, yet bora ears of a measure comparatively trilling, while the upland soils, thouzh producing stalks of much less dimensions, yielded ears of a size far superior. It is something more thin probable, if tne river soils, where put un der a corn crop, were treated to wood ashes to the extent of half a aborelfal to a stalk or hill, we might be called to witness a de velopment of both stalk and ear which would enlarge our knowledge of the phe nomena ot corn growth and yield. Sweet Potato Culture. The raising of sweet potatoes has become quite general ia this latitude, many farmers growing them for curiosity or to supply tbeir own table. ' for the benefit of tboee wbo may wish to experiment we give a few hints in regard to soil and ruauntr of plant ins. A dry, loamy and somewhat sandy soil Is necessary to insure success. Manure this well with compost scattered broadcast, after which thoroughly pulver!z3 tbe grouud by repeated plowing and barrowir g. The use of a subsoil plow in the beds before being - thrown up is of great us to the plants. Mark the prepared eoil off into beds four feet wide. and in tbe center strike a light furrow to receive tue seed if the soil is dry ; if moist. plant it on the surface. If the season is sufficiently long to mature them the potato !s most conveniently planted by cutting the seed into slips and laying them six or eight inches apart in the place where they ore to mature. Large potatoes cut into pieces er, better to mature for seed than small ones uncut. Cover about two inches with licht mould. When tbey commence to sprout run the plow clote to tbe rows on either side to remove tlio earth and aliow the full benetit of the sun and air to the root?. As the plan is advance in growth restore the earth to them with a plow and hoe. If tbe vines are lar, enough to ba injured by the plow use only a hoe. Make broad hills around the plants to afford a full bed of mellow, rich earth, and to retain the rain. Gather potatoes when the vines are dead. If the season is short, or if early potatoes are wanted, plant on a bot be J made of warm manure, with a covering of four inches of fine mould. Split tbe potatoes, place them on this, and cover with three inches of light earth. As the sprouts appear draw and transplant them alter rain. When treated in this manner a bushel of seed will supply plants for an acre. "Ton Don't Know Tneir Value." "'They cared me of sgue, biliousness and kidney complaint, as recommended. . I had a half bottle left which I nsed for my two little girls, who the doctors and neighbors said could not be cured. I am confident sbould have lost both of them one night if I Jiad not had tbe Hop Bitters in my house to use. I found tbey done them so much gooa I continued with them, and tbey are now well. That is why I say yon do not know half the value of Hon Bitters, and do not re commend them high enough." B., Hocbester, N. Y.

For ton years I have been afflicted with this loathsome disease, and especially In the winter time has It been most severe. Tbe discharge has been tbick and bloody, emitting a fool odor so bad that my presence in a room wiiu otners was very onensive to them. One week after commencing the urns nae of Sanford's Radical Core I was not trou bled with It at all.
