Sir David Ochterlony, whose decease in In
dia has been lately mentioned in the papers, is
said to have been one Of the most popular Bri-
fish Generals ever in India. He was, like Adj
miral Coffin, native of Boston, and a graduate
of our free schools. Several persons are now
living who were his school fellows.
He rose in the world by his talents and by
those excellent habits which have been, and we
hope ever will continue to be the characters
tics of the youth of Boston-and which are
better to them than the inheritance of an es-
tate.

Extract ofa letter 10 mercantile house in Aey York, d.
ted ".qluarado, Dec IS, 1926
Foreign vessels are allowed to take freight
from this TO Vera Cruz, and are making a very
handsome business of it-for instance, the Ca
to is chartered for $1,000 the trip; vessels of so
or 80 tons. to $500 and those Of $50 to 200,
81 800 to $1,000.
The government allows all goods tina, were
landed here previous to the l4th inst, to be re.
moved free Of internal duty, say II per cent,
and those goods that arrived or landed after the
l4th are subject to this charge. Vera Cruz in
fluence is bent upon fixing trade there, and
many think that this port will be clo@d entire
ly to foreign vessels, and that too very shortly.
Even now merchants buy but very little, and
the brokers say nothing more can be done here
all must go 10 Vera Cruz. They will not even
take samples, or make an effort to effect sales.
"Arriyals from Europe are very frequent at
this port and Vera Cruz, as far as we can learn
very few sales are made at the latter place,
and here nothing to speak off, so that unless a
demand soon takes place, prices must go still
! lower, and even now they are in general ruin
Gus to the importer"

From the Legislature of MARYLAND, we learn
that, on Friday last, in the House of Delegates,
the resolutions which were introduced by Mr..
MAxcY, in favor of District System of Elec-
ton for President and Vice President of the
United States, and direct vote by the People,
and exclusion from the House of Representa-
,ives, were passed by an almost unanimous vote
On a motion to strike out the resolution recon-
mending provision to be made against the e.
lection ever going TO Congress, the yeas and

it out, and for it. There is reason to suppose
the resolves will also pass the Senate.
