The Crystal Palace is now paying ex-
renses. The n Y. Tribune gives the fol-
lowing explanation:
It's in charge of Mr.. Brevoort, who has
been Invoice Clerk from the first, and act
ing Superintendent, notwithstanding an
other man receives AIl for that service
Tie force OF his assistants has been reduc-
"a from two hundred TO two, which brings
expenses within the limits of the receipts.
Instead Of the formidable force of poiicc-
man, door Keepers and ticket-sellers, we
found our friend O'Dea at the door charg-
ing a shilling, and admitting all who come
to sec the dead hon, without even putting
them through turn stile gate to register
their entry in ma chine that costa thou

Yex Yert Money NNket

The N. Y. Post Of Saturday, 10Th, says Of
the Money Market in that city, that sits fea-
lures begin TO brighten. Specie aud money
continue to accumulate. Money rates grow
weaker daily. Borrowers dmnish, cspe-
cially the heavy ones, and we have an i'm
provement arising at once from lessening
demand and increasin. supply still in pro-
gress This imp ovement, based on an ac-
emulation of hard money, cannot be az
fected by failures, however large, especially
when expected.
"Therc is great discrimination exercised
in the selection Of paper, while the supply
Of frs, class is diminishing. We quote 9 to
10 per cent. for prime grades of paper, and
lsaIJ for second class, which is conside-
rable improvement, and there is no doubt
but that still lower rates will rule very
shortly"

NIGHT RUSHING UPON RAlLR ,ADs.-We
have some times heard il remarked by timia
nersons that they would not travel by night
IN a railroad-their impressioa being that
there is moro danger Of accidents in the
dark than during daylight. Upon first
thought this would seem to be the fact;
hu, writer in the Railroad Advocate takes
:. d;eerent view Of the matter, and certain
" makes out good ease. lie says there
re many circumstances which make night
running comparatively safe. All work up
on the track is stopped. Comparatively
fsw other trains are on the road. No
bridge would ever be likely to remain open
in the night. Switches are more likely to-
ho ,ioht than ut other times, us they are
not in use for other trains, and are locked.
rhe signals for night trains being made by
naht. would scarcely fail to be observed
and obeyed, and what is important would
BE- seen at a greater distance than any 9TH
Or signal in DAYLIGHT. The engineer has
less 10 attract his attention than in the
Jav. time while, after all, a rock or tree fall
limo across bend in the tract in broad day
lioht. or an intended obstruction, is nearly
" much ''hidden DANGER as encounter
cd in the night. There are many places
,n nearly all roads where the range Of view
i less than the reflection Of the "head-
LIGHT" at night. So, after all, it would ap-
near that one can take nights rest in q
iailroaJ car with comparative safety.

Glowing fact, which it points to he atten-

Rhe neighbourhood Of Sebastopol, was
Knocked down, not by cannon ball itself

Fhe FIRST few shocks the began to move with

A New York journals ofth opinion that
there other fools besides those who live on
the Fifth avenue. Listen to il -
Think not labor r. extravaganza is con-
Ffned to the laces silks and satins of the
grich alone. When n target company OF
Fifteen or twcn'y working men waste their
&money on band of music, twenty or thir-
~ strong to parade the streets, that is ey-
hrayagance. When one day in the week is
fooled away, and only five are made work
%nys, that is extravaganza for poor man,
Do prosperous times, TO be spending all his
Pneans which, il possible, should have been
paved for such a day as this. Thus, is not
lhe fault alone of the rich, but of the poor,
20. that we are now as we are. There is
good deal Of truth in these remarks
lhcy may be unpsiatable, but they arc
!oppded Oh facts.'"
