THE CHEESE TRADE.-IIenry Kemp & Co, Of
New York, have issued circular, in which il is
stated the supply Of cheese brought 10 the tide
waters Of the Hudson for the year 1919, was
~, 097 SIS, against 1857 $40 pounds in Ts4S The
decrease the past year is attributed the severe
drought Of last summer in western New York and
Ohio. The export of cheese TO Great Britain from
New York is said TO have reached last year IL O0O-
900 pounds against is 1896 $50 in lsis being de-
crease Of one-hfth. This decrease Is attributed to
tire inferority Of the cheese OF good cheese prob
ably double the amount exported last year would
DC takcn by Great Britain The receipts Of cheese
AT New York, in 1884, were only about six million
pounds, from which they have gone on in regular
graduation Of increase 20 1913, when 43 21S, $40
pounds were received. The exports TO Great Brit
ain commenced in 1910 with 100000 pounds, and

EaeRAroS.-Th is a colony Of Swedes set
tied at a place which they call Bishop Hill, in
Henry county, Illinois. We have had occasion
lately TO allude 20 this settlement several times and
recently 20 their mandatory Of linens, such as ia
bc-cloths napkins, sheets &c, &c They arc repre-
sentcd to us thrifty and industrious people. They
were severely scourged by the cholera last year.
and, as il curiously happened, the males were
chiefly the victims, consequently there is at pre-
sent an unusual number Of widows in the colony.
Recently, the head or principal man Of the society
was killed by despcrado who cndeavorcd To er-
cite hostility against them, and for which he is
now under an indictment for murder.
This year some Of the agents Of the society were
sent back 10 Sweden. They have recently returned,
and we understand bring with them considerable
amount OF capital, the property Of those already
here. They also made arrangements for the pas
sage, and expect, in a short time, the arrival of
about three hundred more members of the came
society, who will alec bring with them a consid-
cradle amount Of capital. Not being able to pro-
cure money exchange TO their satisfaction, they
made most Of their remittancos in iron, which they
shipped 20 New York and sold at profit A peo-
pie industrious they arc, do not need much

California; AS 1T Is.-The New York
Evening Post has an interesting letter from
San Francisco, of a recent date, which
foreshadows the state of things at the pres
ent time. The writer says =
within period of Sky days, (March

there is no real business doing here worth
speaking Of indeed the town is ABOUT as
noisy. and about as busy as New England
village would be on hot afternoon in Au-
gust. The result of this calm will soon be
felt. Men aud business, nay, the very at
mosphere, with every animate and nani-
mate thing, seem at stand still, waiting
for some great event, like the calm in sum
mcr before the thunder storm The truth
is the hurry is over Tie town is built
there are houses enough-stores enough
merchandise, machinery and mechanics
enough, indeed, plenty of every thing. The
town is filled with all SORTS of shops, gam
bling houses, &c, and those will be closed,
that is, three quarters of the owners will
fail within sixty days, and mus. retire to
the mines. Then down viii 20 the rents,
and down the price of real ESTATE, and fol-
lowing these, many of the merchants will
become bankrupts, and finally men and
things will find their own level

SLAVERY IN TIE DISTRICT OF
COLUMBIA.

1t remains to report upon the resolution
in rel iton to slavery aud the slave trade IN
the District of Columbia. Without discus
sing the power of Congress to abolish slave
~ within the District, IN regard to which a
diversity OF opinion exists, the committee
are of opinion that ii ought not to be abol-
lshed 1t could not be done without lndiS-
pcnsablc conditions, which are not likely to
be agreed to- 1t could not be done with
out exciting great apprehension and alarm
In the slave States. If the power were ex-
crciscd in this District, they would appre-
bend that, under some pretext or another,
1t might be hereafter attempted to he exer-
clsed within the >aveholdlng States. Ii Is
true that at present all such power within
those States Is almost unanimously disayow-
ed and dlscIaIncd III the free States. But
experience IN public aflurs has too often
shown that where thc.e Is L desire to do a
PARTICULAR thing, the power to accomplish
1t. sooner OF later, will be found or ASSUME
ed.
Nor does the number Of slaves within
the District make the abolition of Slavery
an object of any such consequence as APP
pears to be attached to 1t IN some parts of
the Union. Since the retrocessIon of Al
exandrla county to Virginia, on the south
side of the Potomac, the District now con-
sists only of Washington ooGniy, on the
north side OF that river; and the returns of
the decennary enumeration of the people OF
the United States show rapidly proIres-
slve decrease Ii, the number of slaves in
Washington county. According to the cen
sus of 1880, the number was A, 503; in Is
40, 1t was reduced to 1920; showing a re-
ductlon in ten years of nearly one third. Ii
1t should continue in the same ratio, the
number, accordlngto the census now about
to be taken, will be only little upwards OF
two thousand.
But majority of the committee think
differently III regard to the slave trade with

His aged father and mother, if alive; his

peulent letter 10 his tathcr-reldling all his

His disappearance and loss was sore
subject to the family, as he was the faYorte
son and brother. They often Thought Of
HIM, bat seldom spoke his name, except in
their PRAYERS, when he was never forgotten.
The rejoicing was therefore great on the
receipt of the news of his existence and
success in life, and after being so long CIV
