NEW SOURCES or TRaDE

We are pleased to learn that a contract has
been entered into with the Sandman Govern
ment, by the New York and Genoa Trans At
lantic Company, to establish a line of steamers
between those two places The company pro-
poses running two lines of monthly steamers,
one between Genoa and New York, and the
other between Montevideo and New York In
return, the Government guarantees to each line
a compensation of $4,000 every trip, for the
transportation of the mails, besides other i'm
portant privileges The charter is limited to
twenty years. In a commercial point of view.
this enterprise is one of great Importance, and
well deserves the support. and eountenance of
the mercantile community. The importation of
cotton alone, to Genoa, amounts to some Il, 0OO,
O0Ofrancs annually. The export trade in fruits
from the Mediterranean, has become one of the
most profitable branches of English commerce
When the railroad between Turin and Genoa is
completed, the whole current of emigration from
Southern Germany will find its outlet through
Genon.
This company also proposes to touch at ports
in Spain and Portugal, and at Madeira, CON
Meeting at New York with the line of South
American packets. The consumation of these
plans will furnish two lines of communication
between Southern Europe and both North and
South America. The cotton trade, which floats
its raw material for Switzerland and Southern,
Germany by the costly and circuitous route Of
Liverpool and Havre, will find direct market
at Genoa. As long as Liverpool continues the
principal cotton market of Europe, the price
ruling there will control the prices of the CONT
nent The establishment of this line of steamers.
to certain extent, will produce diversion,
which, in the course of time, may be considera-
bly, augmented. The wisdom and policy of this
nation justifies the belief that she will not stop
short in extending aid and protection to what
ever relates to her commercial interests.

| INSTRUCTIONS TO OUR Representative YES ARRoA D
hon VIM, L. Marcy, Secretary of State, has
| issued instructions to our diplomatic and con.
| sular agents abroad, intended to effect certain
| important reforms in those branches of the pub
hc service. Hereafter our foreign Ministers are
| to transact their own business, and not trans
| fer TO their secretaries the onus and RESPONSE
6llties of official signatures. For the future.
all our foreign legations are ordered to be

| TO o r. NJ, for the accommodation OF American
citizens, and American passports are to be yised
gratis at the American legations, in all places
where there is one. All fees paid at a consul
late are to be reported to the state Depart
ment, under a penalty of dismissal from Office
The Secretary has also abolished consular and
diplomatic uniforms, in all cases where they
can be dispensed with. American Ministers
must appear at foreign courts in the simple
dress OF an American citizen, where they can
do so without impairing their usefulness.
The simplicity of our usages and the tone of

OF our hrst and most distinguished representa-
tive at royal court than the practice which
has since prevailed Not one but an Amer.
can Is to be hereafter allowed to act as Score
ta.y OF Legation, and in this connection Mr.
Marcy remarks.
The correspondence between the Govern
meut and the legations of the United States
must be guarded with the utmost secrecy even
as relates to our own citizens. To submit it to
the examination of foreigner will be regarded
as an indiscretion in the offender, demanding
immediate deprivation of office The first dutV
OF subject is considered to be fidelity to his
sovereign Foreign clerks may be justly re-
garded as unsafe repositories of the secrets Of
our diplomacy IN the legation where they are
employed The possibility that reyel ation of
our secret State papers may occur in this man

CoTT0N.-1he American cotton circulars are
now beginning to allude to the state of this
years crop but 1T is much too early to form 4
correct opinion, or even an approximation to A
true one The reports are all tinged by the
wishes OF the writers, Though the receipts are
growing less week by week, it is a fact that the
'o'al receipts are 20 1000 over those of last year
Mt this time, while the stocks on hand In We in
creased both IN our ports and Mt liverpool The
consumption, too in England actually exhibits
"a slight abatement instead of an increase. and
our exports are not more than equal 70 Iasf

sufficient to keep prices from much further p 4

DISCOVERY OF 4 BAND or F0RGERs.-A Gin.
cinnati dispatch of the 18th inst says
man named S. Craig was arrested at New.
port, Ky, to-day and immediately BROUGHT r.
this city, on the charge of being implicated in
extensive torgeres. The prisoner was arrested
when in the act Of writing a letter, which Is
said to pointedly implicate himself. In his
house were found large trunk, pair of sad
die bags, and several basketsful of letters with
blank dates, certificates, etc, duplicating u
large number Of persons in various parts Of the
Union Notarial presses and seals were ais
found, and upon part Of the deeds the notaria'
seal OF Hamilton county had been affixed.
An examination of the mass of documents
found brings to light a series of most bold and
YaIainous transactions, and il appears thar a
widespread, fraudulent renl estate business has
been carried on for years, some of the letters
beng dated as far back as 1919 Some of the
letters pretended to be copies of letters to or
from members of Congress. There are also
blank certificates, doubtless stolen from the RI
eorders' offices in Illinois, Chic and Georpi,
parchments for drawing up land warrants deed
signed and sealed requiring only the insertion
OF names Craig is in jail awaiting trial.

not know any such firm, and supposed the lettet
led to this discovery.

The new sect of Progressive Friends" re-
Gently, organized in Chester county, Pa, have
IHoHshed IN exposition adopted at their Yearly
Meeting from which it appears thew are com.
posed mostly Of those members of one branch of
the Society of Friends who have been earnestly
ENGAGED IN the reiormatory movement of the day
against slavery, intemperanee, etc and who
conceive that they were harshly dealt with on
that account. They hold that churches are
merely human organizations, possessing only
sueh powers as are conferred upon them by their
individual members They deem it a great mis-
take IN Christian churches to demand of their
members uniformity of belief, and thew de-
nounce the pharisaical spirit which frowns upon
amusement, and which would cover society with
sanctmonious gloom. Their meetings are
conducted very much like those of the Society
OF Friends, except that they are not ruled by
ELDERS, and have no ministers, overseers, etc.

culinary authority over individual or local So
cletes: individuals may at any time withdraw
