The first period comprises the time when the trcs-
tics allowing indirect trade, contracted with the
Hanse Towns, Sweden and other Powers, IN 1877
and succeeding years, first began 10 operate and
although during the latter years the proportion Of
foreign vessels rapidly increased, the average Of the
whole was but eighteen per cent
The second period commenced at about the time
when a new impulse added TO the already in
crossing foreign navigation by the Colonial arrange
meut' with Great Britain IN 1881 and 1892. Euring
these FIVE years the proportion Of foreign tonnage
nearly doubled while ule amount thereof increased
from two TO six mill ors
During the last five years period marked by ex-
traordinsry commercial fluctuations, the acquired
proportion Of foreign tonnage has been preserved with
remarkable uniformity This latter fact is evi.
dence that however the commercial Interests Of the
United States may have been depressed by these
ouions and fluctuations, the navigation interests OF
foreign Powers have not been seriously affected in
their intercourse with us.

navigation and shipping interests and refer TO u

THE VAN buren, CONVENTION.

We clip the following from the last Charles
ton Mercury, to show our readers that there are
still some REPUBLICANS who are reSolred TO hold
fast 10 the "uue creed,' and who disdain to
wear any party tyranrs collar:
" Ii we cannot support the Democratic creed, The
true creed with free trade at its head, in supporting
MIR. Van Buren,, then will we never support HIM,
though forty conventions should unanimously nom-
nate him. Aud if we support that creed best by
supporting him, shall take good care not to allow
the interests of any TO interfere. As to the Ma
tional Convention have never desired its existence
and therefore precious little whether it is com
posed of men or monkeys. What is reasonable and
good in itself is not made particle more by the
sanction of such body, and what is bad is not
whit worse for its approval and praise"
The Mercury is not to be caugh, in the pre-
yseni ay-lrap of the day, viz asserting pre-
ference for Calhoun, but pledging itself TO sup
port the nominee Of the Contention, i. e. Van
Buren,. The Van Buren, Convention, of course,
will nominate Van Buren,. The delegates have
been selected by the managers for that purpose.
And The party despos are every where striving
to extort pledge TO go for The "nominee OF the
Cons ention p
Unless minorties Shall have their full weight
in an aggregate vott-unless the small States
are guaranteed the rights which are due them
and the voice Of The People be both heard and
respected, by means Of delegates directly from
them, who shall be permitted, each man, TO re-
present the wishes of his constituents in the
final vote-then il will be no assembage Of
honest men, and lis nominee no candidate for
treemen 10 support.
We take our stand beside the Mercury, and
would rather fall in such a cause than TO share
in The triumph Of the Emperor of New Yo,k, il
it should be secured by the unworthy means
his friends are resorting TO. But triumph loi
him will never come TO pass.

The amount Of money which these emigrants bore
with them as far as II is known 10 the Bayaran Gov
eminent is nearly seven millions OF guilders-equa
to about 81 but in consequence OF the heavy
tax which IL levied not only IN Bavaria but throughout
great part Of Germany, upon money and other per
sonal property taken out OF the country by emgrant
II is probable that few OF the persons enumerated
made declaration to the Government OF more than
