We notice that Senator Manierre has INTRO
duced a bill in the Senate to reduce the fare on
city railroads, and secure the comfort of passen-
GERS. The Justice of this measure is so seli-eyi-
dent as to need no commendatiOn. II is well
known that as our city railroads are now con-
Quoted, comfort is the last consideration had IN
view by the management The limit of car
has never, we believe. been determined, con-
ductors always managing to "make room for
90 ono more" AS to the fare, FIVE cents is too
much, taking into account the vast volume OF
travel. The Brooklyn City Railroads all run at
four cents on routes as long as those of New
York; two railroads recently established at three
cents per passenger in Wiliamsburgh, where the
travel is far less in proportion are dong
thrifty business, and stage line in THIS city
runs from Peck slip to Forty-secord street az
the same fare and makes money. Cheap fare,
Ike the penny post, pays handsomely. Put the
fare down to three cents, increase the number OF
cars, and many more will ride than do now. As
at present managed, thousands of persons would
rather walk from the Battery to Fourteenth
street than endure the fetid air OF crowded
car.

The majority of the Select Committee of Five
yesterday submitted to the House of Representa-

to them, az embraced in the Presidents Message,
relating to the Secession movement. They repu-

it as revolution to be met by the enforcement Of

the civil authorities prove inadequate for the

In the United States Senate yesterday the
majority report of tho Committee on the Com
promise measures adopted by the Peace COnyen-
ton was offered, recommending the adoption of
that proposition. Messrs. Seward and Trumbul,
however, forming minority of the Committee,
do not join in that recommendation, and propose
instead resolution inviting the States to take
into consideration the subject Of National Con-
vention. This does not promise an easy time to
the Franklin-Guthrie Compromise in that body;
and as the House on Wednesday voted down by
100 Nays to "a Yeas, the proposal to call Ma
tional Convention, the Compromise business does
not, at this moment, wear q very promising

The hopes Of those sanguine people who be-
lieye that a strong Union sentiment exists in
Texas, and that it would yet rally under the
lead Of General Houston, will be dashed to the
ground by our dispatch from Washington an
nouncirg that the conduct of Twiggs tho Traitor
received his cooperation and acted throughout in
accordance with his advice Like the detection
of Stephens of Georgia, at an earlier day, 1t is
an Evidence that the popular sentiment Of Texas

FRIDAY, Dec. 1876 m.
Foreign exchange was held at 1927 by most of
the leading bankers to-day, and parties who were
obliged to remit had to pay this rate We doubt
however, whether Is 900 in all were sold above
1897. There is demand for bills from the trade
Hence, notwithstanding the scarcity of mercantile
bills, AMI consequently the unwiilingness of the
bankers to draw, the advance in bills may almost
be considered merely nominal. The indications
are that we may count on an export average for
the winter Of a million and half to million and
quarters per week, exclusive of cotton. This
will supply all the bills required by the importers
provided Congress will raise tho duties foreign
silks iaces, rihbola and other articles of luxury
which can be dispensed with. Meanwhile If the
present upward tendency of the market continues
a. it promises 70 DO, small specie shipment may
] be made on Wednesday next. 1t is as web that
the thing should be DONE as people will then see

ments is.
| There is no change in money. and very little
doing in paper. The heavy lenders still expect to
| get for call loans, but active borrowers can oh

! temporary deposits. The market for money gene
rally is rendered dull by the pending suspense in
regard to the financial policy Of the government.
The stock market opened with some strength
this ,norHng, but showed tendency to advance
so rapidly that the bears for the sake of their con-
tracts, forced to put out some options in Or
der to keep prices down. Subsequently dull
ceiling prevailed and lower prices we're accepted
for many leading stocks, the market closing weak.

BRITISH CANT--Ten years ago that
most estimable man, William Ware, (now
deceased wrote book about Europe, in
which, while praising the English people
for many good traits, he denounced the
national style of Cant" as shown in the
gravest matters, thus :-"Ihey lecture the
world on the virtues and duties of peace,
but without scruple will let loose the dogs
of war whenever their cottons their wool
ems, their iron or their opium are interior
ed with. They are filed with very vir-
tuous indignation at the continued exist
ence of American slavery, although it was
they who planted it here, and that too
against our most earnest circumstances,
while at the same time they swallow with
out difficulty the slavery Of 100000
of Hindoos; they give suppers and break
fasts on Sundays, whereby armies of ser
wants are detained in personal attendance
on their masters throughout the day, and
for a pretense stop the Sunday mail, that
all the various operatives connected there
with may go to church and say their
prayers. They are sadly panied that the
Americans should love the dollar so we'll

1he Trail" as the title, suggests aims at
presenting the great leading facts IN the
history OF RELIGION AND EMPIRE IN PARALLEL.
In each volume is inserted an Historical Dia-
gram, on which the great changes in the history
of Religion and the rise and fall OF empires are
represented as on an outline map. by this
means, the chronology of the past subject so
difficult to master is made easy as the latitude
and longitude of Vermont. BY the Trail ="
HISTORY Is MADE EASY.
The Historical Diagram and Digest" by the
same author, is map of history, about the size
of the county maps, and is designed for of1ces'
studies families, and common schools.
The Diagram is the same as in the Trail The
Digest is a compact arrangement of the names
of the leading characters in Church and State,
the dates when they lived, and an epitome OF each
ones life. work of the greatest possible use
for reference, and for introducing the study OF
history into common schools.

WEST POINT misunderstanding to a
writer of the Jersey City Sentinel, the estab.
lishment of this academy is due princi-
pally to the efforts Of Washington and
Hamilton. in "Norton's Life of Wash
ington' we read as follows: ;" The cold,
threatening morning of the 10Th (Decem-
Der 1899 should have kept man of 6s
under the comfortable shelter of his own
roof, and Mrs. Washington suggested to
her husband that he had better remain at
home. But having something particular
to attend to. he mounted his horse and
set off on his usual ride. That very
morning he had written letter to Ham
ilton, heartily approving of plan for the
establishment Of military academy,
which the latter had submitted to the Sec
rotary of war;" The exposure of this
morning ride brought on sudden illness,
which, in few days, terminated Wash
ington's life; ana the letter referred to
was, therefore, the last ever written by
him.

The Perfect MelOde0n,

WITHOUT AN EQUAL.

A LM0ST every mail from far and near brings
IN to us some new evidence of the great favor
and growing popularity OF this beautiful lhstru-
ment and abundant testimonials are constantly
reaching US proving conclusively that no other
Reed instrument contains so many exellencies as
the PERFECT MELUDE0N WITH BASS DAMPER
AND HARMONIC ATTACHMENTS,
The Harmonic Attachment is the most valuable
of modern improvements-by it the power OF the
Instrument is doubled without increasing its size
or the number of its Reeds.
Our NEWLY INVENTED HARMONIC ORGAN
for CHURCHES, CONCERT and LECTURE ROOMS
has GREATER CAPACITY AND POWER than any 0thef
instrument made in the Country, considering
the price.
Ii is FAR MORE SIMPLE and LESS LIABLE TO GET
OUT OF ORDER than other Reed Organs
Ii contains only HALF AS MANY REEDS as other
instruments of the same power, and consequent
ly not HALF THE EXPENSE to keep in tune.
1t has fine powerful PEDAL BASS with REEDS
disconnected with the other part OF the instfu-
mcnt.
Another entirely new feature in the Melodeon
enterprise is the PATENT HARP, or PIANO ATTACH
MENT. to the Meodeon.
This is precisely what its name indicates, COM
BINATIoN OF THE MELoDEoN AND PIANO FORTE,
and meets precisely the wants and desires OF a
large class who have long been anxious to see the
two instruments combined in MELoDEoN size. In
this unique instrument the MELODEoN, or PIANO,
may be played separately or combined, producing
an effect unknown to any other instrument, and
must be heard to be appreciated
We have arrangements with some of the best
Piano Makers to receive from them regularly
PIANOS of the very best quality which will be sold
at less than Boston prices.
Also PIANOS and MELoDEONs to RENT.
All instruments warranted and sent to any part
of the country at our risk
