make *comparison; whiett Will in part, answer " a
question that is often put,; ailing on the, admin.
*retina of -the company, to account for the 're
dueed prices of the stoclur and loans.
During the time the monopoly of the Schuylkill
trade Was hold, the $1,800,000 of the loan 'or. the
company, at 4 per cent. 5 tun' lent. and 6 per cent.
per annunt,,suld at par, and th e Stock at 11175 and
upwards, for 150 paid: .The capital stock at that
time was about 11,660,000, and the whole'-value
of the employ's property, as estimated ',in the
_stock market, was $6,250,000. The gross ensue(
income from tolls and rent* was $518,000. -,
'The gross income of 1850, from tolls and - rents,
is $836,500;• and the Telma of ibe property, which
has been. enlarged to at leaecthree times the ca
pacity of 1837, measured by the price', of the
stock market, is only $5,200,000, The net income
of 1837 being equaLtu 8 per oont on the ladling
Price of that year, ;and the net income of 1856
being equal to nearly ten per cent on the 'present
selling price. • ; I - •
•
But if , it be thought unreasonable. to measure
by so high a. standard as that 01,1837, let us apply
the prices of 1845, when the trade on The old
canal reached its minimum. • ."
The net income for that year 'was but 461,300.
1.00, end the price of the property, valued In the
stock market, was 112,250,000,1yie1d1ng only 21
per - rent. on that price. -
It is very clear, from this exhibit, that Bi l e stook
ezeLange furnishes no reliable indication of the
Ireal vain, of any public - work ; but that shares
- and loans are viewed there rather as reatitors for
large games than as investments * bo relied on
for income. - r -
That such prices ire not viewed by ene,Mals of
share and loan holders as the true ' value 'Uf their
property, is demonstrated by the permaneet told-
ing of the stocks , and limns of ones company, a
very largo proportion of which has newer otoingod

Cost of repairs; and thewisi adjustment' id' loans
and stocks, made la 1852, was the onlyilmeasere
that could have given any, vitae to the o ld capi

While that adlc6tment secured the payment of
interest on the loans of thb company, it fixed also
a price for them, at which it would be unjust both
to loanholders and stockholders to sell them, for
the purpose of pay i ng for new work and addition

either preferred or common stock. To have
limited the trade to a gross tannage of 1,000,000

was just sufficient to peiy the interest on the-loans,
would have been a 'practical annihilation of the
