THE MARKETS 
MONEY AND TRADE AFFAIRS. 
New York, Saturday, May 25,1872. 
Since our luff report it is pretty well ascertained 
that the Senate will advise the President to admit 
the supplementary article to the Washington Treaty 
proposed by the British Government. This removes 
a cause of serious an Get y to t rade and financial Inter¬ 
ests, besides opening the way to renewed American 
Stock negotiations abroad. 
Our City Bank movement continues to gain strength, 
and the ease of the Money Market for the Summer 
months, at Off. 7 per cent ., Is already fairly assured. 
General Trade moves steadily, but not so actively, 
of e<nurse, a* earlier In the season. The Importations 
are now largo in such staple Foreign Merchandise as 
Sugars, Metals, Teas, &«.. while the current entries 
of Foreign Dl-y Goods nro light. The Cotton receipts 
are running down to a few thousand bale* per week, 
and the Cotton exports, continue very light. The 
active shipment of American Gold Coin is now sup¬ 
plying a good share of the Foreign Exchanges, and 
the amount going from (Ids port for the week Is 
nearly four millions. The price of Gold is no higher 
(but a fraction lower) than our previous quotation. 
The Treasury is selling aud disbursing nearly as 
much as the export demand requires. 
The session ol Congress is drawing to a dose, and 
we shall probably know in a week or ten days the 
filial disposition of the Tariff ami Taxes amendments. 
The hill has gone from the House to the (senate, but. 
I 11 so crude a shape that radical changes will no doubt 
be made by the Senate Finance Committee. 
Tim following are the eotnpaiaUve movements of 
the City Banks for the past fortnight;

Hornes in the West.-The intention of those 
interested is called to the announcement of the 
land department of the Northern Pacific Rail¬ 
road, published elsewhere. That Company offers 
for sale to settlers and colonies a large body of 
excellent farming and timber lands in Central 
Minnesota at low prices, and on seven years’ 
credit. A large portion of tlie offered lands are 
situated in and near the Red River Valley, 
famous for its beauty and fertility, and the cur¬ 
rent of emigration is setting strongly in that 
direction. With wise liberality the Company 
agrees to carry free over its road all purchasers 
of land with their fumilies, and offers transpor¬ 
tation from leading points at greatly reduced

The principal fluctuations since our previous table 
of quotations have been In Pacific Mail and Erie 
Stock. The business in Pacific was very large 
throughout the week. Sales ran up to 876 , and clown 
to 77 per cent., under the manipulations of the lead¬ 
ers in the stock. The Company have secured all they 
petitioned for at Albany—an amended charter—and 
also the extru subsidy from Congress of a half a mil¬ 
lion per annum for the Chinn and Japan mail service. 
The Erie Stock advanced from 09 to 70 per cent,, and 
returned to69H percent, Tho Express Stocks have 
advanced from 2 to 5 per cent. The Western Bail- 
road Stocks arc quoted about the same as at the close 
of the week before.

dealers have been enabled to work off some of the 
small accumulation of white and common stock. At 
the riose prices are quoted at tho utmost limit, ns 
sudden heavy receipts will soften a market that ts 
forced to use up the grad on of new oflbred wt ibis 
season. With tire evidence of a local supply tn Cali¬ 
fornia we can look for no outlet through that sec¬ 
tion this season. Still, our trade to manufacturing 
points Eastward lx increasing yearly, and the with¬ 
drawal of California buyers will be somewhat com¬ 
pensated for by the fact. Yellow butter for Southern
