THE MARKETS. 
MONEY AND TRADE AFFAIRS. 
N r.w York. Saturday, March 18,1872. 
Trade continues active in Foreign Goods, and ulsn 
in Domestic Cotton Good*. Tho spring business will 
prove 10 per cent, larger than last year. The Export 
movement. Is light this week, both from New York 
and the Southern Cotton ports. Tho Cotton receipts 
are light, and theprice, both horeand nt Liverpool, is 
singularly weak on short, crop estimate*. It seems 
doubtful whether we shall be able to spare two 
million bales to Foreign markets out of the current 
crop, while Ihe Domestic mills will require about 
1,100,000 bales. The look of the Export trade Is un¬ 
favorable. In view of the unprecedented Imports. 
We hnve now from the Bureau of Statistics at Wash¬ 
ington the results of the Foreign Trade for the tlrst 
live months of the current Fiscal Year, of which the

The event of the week In Stock affairs Is tho revolu¬ 
tion In the Direction of the long unfortunate and 
deeply wronged Erie Hoad. This movement was us 
unexpected as It was ably planned, by parties in the 
Interest of the English Stockholders. Gen. Sickles 
has the credit of engineering the affair, which, though 
threatened for a day or two by complicated legal diffi¬ 
culties, was accomplished, and tho new Board of Di¬ 
rectors, with Gen. John A. Dlx at Die head, duly le¬ 
galized, leaving Mr. Jay Gould powerless for future 
mischief. The now Directors proclaim themsp.l ves to 
he only a Provisional Board until a new election, un¬ 
der the bill about, to become a law ut Albany, in July 
next. This deposition of Gould, and the recent vio¬ 
lent death of Klsk, have broken the Erie King, and It 
only remains to he seen whether the property, so long 
the sport of their desperate speculations, can be re¬ 
suscitated ton Dividend paying basis, without years of 
reform and economy. 
Money continues in demand at 7 per cent, at Bank, 
aud 8o/JO per cent, cm the Street.

principal change in the Railroads Is a rise of 6 per

Preferred Stock, tho latter selling up to 76K per cent- 
The other roads barely hold their own on a dullish 
market. Reading and Rock Island are 1 per cent, low¬ 
er. The Express Stocks have made n further large 
advance; 2 per cent, on Adams, 6 on American, and 5 
on United States. The Southern States Stocks are
