baltimore Coffee Market.

BALTIMORE, April 4, P. M.-COFFEE-When we
closed our review last week the coffee market was
firm and holders not disposed to sell except at full
figures Since then there has been less animation
but no abatement in prices. We note a steady in
qury. Sales in all reach about 5000 bags Rio at
Il TO III cents for common; fair do l II cents
good II cents; prime l2al2A cents and choice
do l2t cents per pound. But little Lagusyra here.
We quote il at ltal2t cents, as to quality. Java
IL also scarce and in request at l5al5f cents
Some lots of stained and damaged Rio have been
taken at lOaall cents
Stock at present on hand of Rio about AZ, 500
bags The weeks imports reach 5000 bags from
Rio.
We give the following circular for March, OF
Messrs. White & Elder, Brokers, Exchange Place:
Since our last report, the coffee market has ex-
perienced some slight fluctuations consequent upon
the usual course Of supply and demand.
During the first two weeks OF the month, the
large receipts some time kept back by the obstruc-
ton of navigation, had the effect to depress prices
aud to give the advantage to buyers, and some
$4,000 bags Rio were sold at a decline on rates
previously demanded Since the 9th inst another
reaction has taken place, caused in some measure
by the latest advices from Rio, Of somewhat more
decided character 10 reference TO the curtaiment
Of shipments TO the United States. There is also
improved feeling with dealers generally, who
have entered the market freely IN order TO supply
active spring demand, which, in consequence Of
the severity OF the winter has been much retarded
and IS expected to be heavier than usual
There is sufficient evidence of more wholesome
demand in the extent Of the business transacted as
herewith reported In the last ten days especially
the operations have been large and the mark Ell
quite active; closing firmly at our quotations.

The weather for some days past has been very
pleasant, and planters have taken advantage OF il
eagerly to place every thing in order on their plan
tations. After SO bad winter it is to be hoped
that the balance of the spring will continue mild
and genial, and favorable in every way to the
growth of vegetation.
Business since our last weekly review, has con-
tinued brisk in the leading departments of trade.
In dry goods and groceries it has been particu-
larly active.
COTTON-During the past week cotton has
come in slowly. In the early part prices had a
downward tendency, but became sitter as the week
wore away, and at the close of the market yester-
day they were firm. The sales sum up something
over 500 bales at 74asi. The different grades may
be quoted as follows:

The bogus affair, calling itself the Territorial
legislature of Kansas, which was recently elect

enacting more bogus laws, to add to the villain
Gus code already imposed upon US by Missouri.
We have the assurance that Gov. Geary would
use bis utmost exertions to have theImore OBJ
noxious OF these enactments repealed. But zoe
say none of these so called laws are valid, or of
the least consequence. The body that enacted

Moro About s.Hack Charges.

Some days ago, after our return from Iowa,
we made alusion to the dissatisfaction which
generally prevails among the business men of
that State iii regard to the imposition of "back
charges" on goods passing through this city.
Since then friend has sent us the following slip
cus from all Iowa City paper, from which our
torwarders and railroad officers may form some
opinion OF the state of feeling that exists among
their Iowa correspondents:
For nearly one year those merchants in our
city and other citiesin this vicinity who receive
their goods and freight from the east through
the city OF Chicago, have Been the subject of the
most outrageous system OF swindhng, and the
evil has become great that efforts are about to
be made by our merchants and business men to
put an end to these outrages. A bill of goods
will be shipped to Davenport from New York
city, for certain agreed price for freight to Chi
cago. The freight bills presented to our
merchants by the Chirago and Rock Island Rail-
road, with their charges according to specified
rates, and u charge in one lump of "back charg-
es" to Chicago. This sum for back charges is
often found on examination to be augmented by
the Shyiocks in Chicago about 80 per cent over
the entire cost of transportation from New York
to that city, as follows: Suppose the bill pre-
sented By the c. and r. I. K. R. Co. to specify
$50 back charges, it is found on investigation
that Sou Ut istU VI tiiue Is
road freight, and the balance is the charge of
some agent for ideal services in the tratlshipment
in Chicago. This evil is growing daily, and
these agents in Chicago are Irregular set of YAM
pyres, living upon our country. merchants ana
business men, and growing rich by these unlaw-
full gains. Let Chicago look well to these COM
plants, if size desires to retain the patronage
and trade OF her numerous customers from this
State. 1t cannot be suffered much longer by our
citizens and We hope and trust that some en-
phatic demonstration win be made that shall
convince Chicagoans that we are not willing to
be robbed by the wholesale in this outrageous
manner. One or two individuals, acting alone,
can effect but little.. There should be concert,
unaEimity, and such ways provided for ex.in.
gushing the evil, as will prove effectual. b
We repeat, what We said the other day. that
we have no means of ascsrtaining where the fault
lies. Taose who have, should look to it at once
with the view Of securing reform. The interest
involved is far too large 10 suffer the matter to go
by default. s
We cut the above from the Chicago Press,
and We remark en- passaat, that We hope for the
benefit Of our city and the prosperity OF both
our Railroads, that this cut throat game on the
part Of persons Who are connected with the
Roads or handle the freight, will not be pracsiced
upon our shippers. And officers Of the Roads
owe it to themselves and to the stockholders, to
take good care that wholesale svindies BE- not

SINGULAR Posr OFFICE DEcIsIoN.-The post.
master General, by what right we cannot see,
has directed that all mail matter addressed to a
box in post office, shall be sent to the Dead
Letter Office, instead OF being forwarded to its
address. The reason given for this is that many
lottery and other circulars are thus directed, to
the annoyance of some people. This may all be,
but they had better suffer the annoyance, than
deprive others of letters of Importance, or delay
their receipt. All transient mail matter address
ed simply to post office, shares the same fate.
Such an order as the last, applied to unpaid mat
