A general rise of stocks to the average extent
oftwo per cent. took place in New York in conse-
quence of the Arabia's news. The tone and con-
diton OF the money and stock market must depend
in a measure, upon the prospects of peace in Eu-
rope. The foreign intelligence comes down to the
23d of January, and the prevailing opinion is that
peaceabe solution Of the Eastern question is near
at hand although opinions differ to the time when
a treaty of peace may be reached. The last return
Of the Bank of England shows further decline of
gold and bullion of $5s5,00o. The New York
banks, for the last week, show gain in specie of

The Amsrican Convention.

The American Convention of Rhode Island,
says the Providence Transcript, met in this city
yesterday pursuant to announcement About twen-
ty towns represented, and there were, in all,
about eighty delegates present Much interest
was manifested with reference to the plans and
purposes of the party in the coming campaign.
The tone of the meeting was decidedly anti-slave-
ry, and the delegates appointed to the National
American Convention expressed themselves as
6rm in the above position. While, however, they
recognise in their political creed those principles
which really under lie the political sentiments Of
every worthy and philantIropic citizen, they still
hold fast TO the cherished motto, which is the very
nerve and life of the organization, viz: Amer
cans shall rule America" The following gentle
men were chosen:
Delegates-E. J. Nightingale, Providence; Oil
yer Chace, Tiverton; Isaac Sanders, Scituste O.

The meeting was characterized throughout by
more than an ordinary enthusiasm and spirit.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1896.

SAMUEL @. BUSEY, ~
Mr.. Smiths Bill.

The Hon. William r. Smith gave notice
yesterday in the House of Representatives Of
his intention to introduce bill to prohibit the
introduction of foreign paupers, criminals,
idiots, insane, lunatics, and blind persons.
We have no knowledge of the detail of this
important bill, but from an acquaintance with
this distinguished gentleman, and knowledge
of the object sought to be accomplished, we
doubt not but that he has SO drawn the bill as
to command the support Of every American,
and of all others who desire to protect the
country from the evils of foreign paupcrism,
crime and idiocy.
We admire the promptness Of the honorable
gentleman in thus thrusting upon the House
the direct issue between Americanism and
nti-Americanism, and we hope he will not
relax in his efforts to obtain for it an immedi-
ate consideration by the House. Let US have
the direct issue; we care not how soon.
The American party is prepared to meets its
assailants on the floor of Congress and before
the country. Keep away side issues. Bring
the foreign contingent" to the test Let them
dare say by their votes that this country shall
continue to be the asylum for the paupers,
thieves, and idiots of Europe, or force the Sag
NIGHTS to sustain this measure, and thus falsify
their pledges to those whom they have de-
ceived at home. The people cannot be deceived
as to the true issue, nor as to the true repre-
sentatives of the honor, dignity, and safety of
the Republic.
The Presidential campaign will soon be upon
us, and the Sag NIGHTS will endeavor, as in the
recent State elections, to deceive the people
with the assurances that they are Americans
in principle and in politics, and to meet these
declarations let us have the record against
them.
They dare not dodge the issue, for they have
pledged themselves, each and every one, upon
the hustings, that they were true and genuine
representatives of the interests and dignity Of
the American people. They have " stolen our
thunder" and to convict them before the peo-
pie, who will judge impartially, we must have
the record.
With such champions as the distinguished
gentleman from Alabama, the American party
need apprehend no danger as to the result OF
the contest before the House. The speech
which he delivered during the last session Of the
last Congress won for him character aud rep
utation of which he may well proud and we
doubt not but that his defence of the bill Of
which he has given notice will prove to be
equally credtable TO him.
