(From, our own Correspondent)

New York, Jun^tilL*¹^ The President of the United States has just approved the Act authorising the construction of a bridge across the Staten Island Sound, a few miles below New York City, known as the Arthur Kill. This practically secures the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company terminal facilities in this city. Commercial circles are interested in this new railway enterprise, which will certainly afford increased opportunities for more intimate commercial relations between this city and the South by rail. The broad gauge in the South has been changed to standard, and already there is an evident increase of traffic between Southern States and the Northern. A large volume of idle capital is finding numerous invitations to engage in Southern industrial, commercial, and railway enterprises, and the establishment of terminal facilities by this wealthy corporation will go far to encourage investments which have been hanging back for the past year or two. A large amount of capital will be invested in cotton m ils, in mining properties, and in blast furnaces and mills in Georgia and Alabama. Agents representing syndicates will shortly go South for the purpose of making more careful investigations into the desirability of contemplated investments. The volume of business in commercial circles is increasing very slowly. Confidence exists everywhere that the summer and autumn trade will be very heavy in iron, because of the large amount of railway building to be pushed through. The railmaking capacity is 125,000 tons per month, and all mills are crowded with orders, some of them having taken orders for as late as December delivery. Prices range from 34 dols. 50c. to 35 dols. in large lots. There is also an increasing demand for foreign material, such as unwrought steel, Bessemer pig, and for bridge building material and rails, although the opportunities for placing rails in this market are very light, excepting at points far removed from mills. An improving demand for ccastwise tonnage has been developed within a week or ten days. The Delaware river shipyards have contracts on hand for several very fine yachts, for passenger steamers for rivers, for schooners for coastwise service, while the locomotive builders have within two or three weeks received a good many orders for locomotive engines for delivery late this season. Prices of all kinds of material continue very low. Several car-builders in New York and Pennsylvania have contracts that will run them ninety days. Nails have declined in price to Idol. 80c. per keg. Merchant bar is selling at l^c. to 2c. per lb. The supply of merchant steel by the new processes is steadily increasing. The sheet and plate mills are slack of orders just at present. The structural ironmaking capacity is being increased, and several inquiries for large lots have just been received, which will probably keep most of the bridge mills busy, running full time.
