The board had been elected at a time which called far the selection of the beat men to fill the public offices. They met for the *rat time under the constitution, and were about to organize to take charge of the affairs of t-ople of the county. H e presumed that . ctton of the board would be entirely barmo- : lions; that everything {hat shall tend toward po- litical strife would be eschewed, and that the af- 'airs of the county would be coadopted tn such a manner as shall be entirely acceptable to the whole people, without reference to party >r political questions. No time ever ex- ited in the history ef the county when an organization of any board had •ome together under the seme auspices as this xmrd, and they should endeavor to carry oat principles of economy and rigid accountability ef ill public servants, and avoid strife among them- selves. The first business of the board was to elect permanent officers. oaojuazAtiov. Commissioner Crawford moved that the Chair appoint a committee of three on credentials. The motion was agreed to, and the Chair aa- iK>inted Commissioners Crawford, WMpe,- and -kelry such committee.

The season of greatest stringency Is naoally from about the aeto of Koveaiber to the ltth m aotl of December. Thus far there .have b«sa n© to»ille®- ttons of scarcity of money this winter. The Mew York bank statement for the week ending Decem- ber 3 is considered favorable to ease to. ;o»* toar - ket. I» regard to ttj« Chlcigo market, we may repcat what we have frequently said daring the last few weeks, that deposits are large, and the banks find employment for only a portion of their surplus fund*. The Tast amohnt et nmhey paid, and to be paid, for insurance losses, has been . pot tote dreulatton la a manner whiah has had the practical effect of an taeresse ot fioating capital which has thus £ar specially affected the Chicago market. There has, in toot, been a large Importation of foreign capital to partly $tl the Ptooe of the looal ea pital destroyed here. The amounts paid by the English insurance companies and tnose of Cali- fornia wttl probably reach #10,000,000. This comes froto markets so distant that it will be an actual addition to the amount of floating capital la'cir- culation between here and the E.witern cities. Hogs lose la weight in weather as cold as the present. Farmers wUl, therefore, probably kill a large portion of suchas are ready for market, and, if the present low temperature continues, the movement of the hog crop, generally, will bo ac- celerated. Exchange continues abundant, and sells be- tween banks at from J5cto soc per #1,000 lisoount. There is a large demand, however, for Jfew York funds.

OF POLICE. Betiresnent mi Mr. Ctoasl aaxl Instalment af Mr. Rehaa aaCoaN»i*ateaer>'<-Remarks All Arenad the Beers—Ao Election far President Peatpaaed until the Neat Meeting. The Board of Police and Eire Commissioners met yesterday afternoon In their room. Present: Commissioners Brown, Sheridan, and Chad wick. Mr. Ouncl aald, after approving the minutes, his term of office had exnired. H e therefore would band over Vm star, the emblem of his office, to his successor, Mr. Beam. He knew that If Mr. Behm could have helped it he would not have to go out of offee. There was no one to whom he would mere gladly give It to than to Mr. Behm. . . Mr. Behm sccepted the star, and took his seat He had qualified, but had no papers. Mr. Brown said he was stm a member of the hoard until the County Ce monsaioner should ap- point his successor—probably till to-morrow, (to-day). Commissioner Behm preferred to wait before the election of a FreeMeat. Coiamisatoaftf flliertdan expressed his regret at the exit from office of both Commissioners— Brown and Gund—but "friends must part," especially political friends. Commissioner Gund said the police affairs had become a second existence to Mm. He had been connected with the Bailee Department since last. Hs had always had a good time in the board; had always been treated well by the members, though * torn them, if The new & per cent Catted States consols were quoted in the regular list of the New Y »rk Stock Exchange to-day. The quotation of 1091-8 tor these new bonds, with accrued interest staee November j , and with gold now at 1101 -t, mnke the net price of the bonds about 99, or 1 par cent oetovr par. The total reduction of the principal af the pub- lic debt from March 1, 1869, to December 1, 1871, has been 8277,311.883. Since March 1,1871, it has been 173,467,419, c*at the rate of 8jM.5Ti.Bto per annum, which shows tb<*t there is ample room for a reduction of at least 850,000,000 per annum to taxation. Probably not more than one person in fifty, even among business men who ate generally sup- posed to know all about such things, who would give a correct answer to a query as to how many " thousands " there are la a "billion." In this connection a Philadelphia paper remarks that the word billion, timugaproperly meaning a mill- ion millions, is as often used to mean a thousand millions, and that the French payment to Ger- many, tf it effects no other purpose, will result in naturalizing, in the English language, the word milliard to mean one thousand millions. This Is an excellent suggestion and should be adopted by financiers generally. Practically there is no use for an arithmetical term to express a mUMon millions, except in astronomical calcula- tions. In financial calculations a word expressing thousands of millions would bo useful, as, for instance, wo might state the total amount of the public debt on December 1, less cash ta the Treasury, at 3 milliard*. 343 miUioat, 351 thousand, three hundred ami sixty-seven dollars. —At midnight on Thursday of November 30, the canal and railroad properties of the " United Companies " of ffew Jersey and the Philadelphia & Trenton Railroad Company passed into the control of the Pennsylvania Company. The Boston IVoselJer, also, credits the rumor that the Pennsylvania Company are likely to «et control of the Boston, Harford & Erie project—which Boston capital has never been able to carry out— and says very truly thatBoston would be decided- ly a gainer by such a connection. This gradual absorption of railroads in all parts of the country shows that the Pennsylvania Company is losing that local character which has made its main line exclusively a Philadelphia road, and seems to be moving toward the organization of a com- pany to control railroad transportation generally throughout the United States. —A Pittsburgh paper says that applications will be made to the Legislature of Pennsylvania for the chartering of nine new banks, to be lo- cated in Pittsburgh. —The State of Illinois will pay the interest maturing January 1, UT2. from the 3d to the 16th day of January, at the American Exchange Na- tional Bank, of New York. —The October earnings of the Union Pacific Road for 1870 and 1871 were as*foltows: Octoosr, 1*71.

The following grain has been received up to 10 o'clock this morning; 130 ears wheat, SStears corn. 43 cars oata, 7 oars rye, 38 ears barley. Total, 571 cars, or 236,000 bo. The produce markets were unusually quiet to- day, with little change in prices. The receipts were rather large, and offerings were free hat act pressed upon the market. There was very little inquiry for shipment as there is not much chance of getting large quantities of grain •through if this weather continues. But the effect would be even more marked on the receipts, and thia consideration prevented prices from failing, though but little was wanted. The bitter weather also operated to make the street markets very quiet; none earing to go out Unless they were ac- tually obliged to do so. Hence the day was one of the quietest ever known in business circles all over the city. High wines were firm and l-3c higher, owing to a reported advance of 1c ta New York. The mar- ket closed strong. Sales were: 380 brls at 89c, and 50 brls at 90c. Dressed hogs were in better demand, the weath- er being more favorable for holding, aad were a shade firmer, at 84.66 for good averages. Sales were 269 head. Provisions were dull and easier. Hogs were not in very large supply, and were quoted steady, tout many holders o f product seemed very anxious to dispose of their property, and buyers had the advantage on pork and lard. The pro- dnftion has been Tory free, so far, and, though shipments have also been very large, yet there i s plenty of product on hand. Meats are firm, be- cause they have been taken very freely on Eng- lish account, and there was no app recia ble change in quotations to-day, but pork and lard ware easier, the latter being decidedly tame. Pork has been sold short to such an extent that the market can scarcely be without buyers, but they lowered their bids lOo per brl to-day, and seemed carstoB* about filling ta even at the decline. The market closed at the following range of quota- tions : Mess pork, cash or seller the month, H2.87 l-2al2.90; do seller January, 113.10*13.15; do seller February, f 13.40al3.45; do seller March, *13.T0aI3.75.

Flour was more active and s toady. There was a fair demand for low grades oh Southern ac- count, but little was done, as the stocks af that class of flour are light. Sales were: 900 brls spring extras (choice Minn.) at 87.00; 100 brls do at M.25 ; 100 brls do at 86.12 1-2 ; 60 brls do at 86.00 j 500 brls do at 85.50; 109 brls do at $3.40; 2,2j» brls do on private terms; 100 brls spring superiiaes at 84.16; 100 brls do at 84.00. Total, 3,650 brls. Also, 10 tons bran at 816.00 on track. Wheat was very quiet at the inside prices of Saturday last. There was no demand, except speculative, outside of a few car. lots token by local millers, and the speculative traders were not anxious to take hold, especially after New York was quoted dull and heavy. But prices did not weaken materially, for the reason noted above, that receipts are expected to fall off, and there Is no more here than can be Comfortably carried. Seller January was the principal option dealt In—it opened at $1.21 l-l, declined to 81.21, f d closed at 84.211-8.

It has been accompanied with a heavy snowstorm ta the West that has greatly inter- fered with the passage of railway trains, and doing serious damage to life and pro perky. Its effect upon canal navigation ia our own, State is disastrous, as hundreds of boats, millions of bushels of grain and thousands of tons of freight were afloat and aow ice-bound by Jack Frost. Hudson River is frozen over and navigation sus- pended above Hudson City. "This unexpected weather will work a serious Injury to shippers, who have been crourdina the capacity of the oannl for several days in sjjtioi- pation of a close of navigation, and the suspen- sion catches them wish heavy shipments in trsnsitu. It i s estimated that there are as many as four hundred boats ice-bound, whose cargoes will have to bo removed by rail, or remain on , board until spring. This, of course. Involves a acrious lose, as nutch of the freight is perisltoMe property, and its renaovement ami shipment by rail would consume much of its % alms."
