appreciation of himself and suite of the kind

delicate manner in which Mr.. Cox has OK

Tho President has pursued the same course
in relation to this State as he did in regard
to South Carolina-that is, he has directed

communicated before the assembling of the

that there are on the island of Jamaica about

FINANCIAL Speculation has
broke loose in the share market, and tho
bulls arc on fearful rampage The great
thing of the day is the advance in Milwaukee
and Prairie du Chien--a concern yet inno-
cent of dividends, and which is likely to re.
main 30, but which was advanced in New
York yesterday to l24 per cent, or to 1920
per share, and which, after the closing of the
board, was sold at higher rate. The opera
tion is thus explained: The advance in the
stock during late weeks, based upon legiti-
mate considerations, has developed large
'short" interest, covering, 1t is said, 80, 900
shares, while there are only 20, 900 shares Of
the stock Issued.
In this oversold condition Of the market a
bull clique has bought up the entire stock,
thus cornering the "shOrts" most dsas.
trously. Under this operation the stock has
risen l24 since tho close of Saturday morn
ing board, and the price appears likely to
go still higher. The "short' interest is al.
most entirely outside of the regular board,
and considerable interest is felt as to the
probable result
The liabilities upon co. 900 shares the
amount reported sold "short, y reckoned at
the closing price at the morning board, would
be over $4,000, OOOi against which the
"shortn sellers would realize only about
SO 500, 900, estimating the option to have
been put out at an average of 80.
The 5uhs, in this case, appear to be
driving their "corneriug" operations too
far, as it is evident that they must compel
some heavy failures, if the facts bc as is un.
derstood upon the street
The Cleveland and Pittsburgh, under the
influence of similar arrangement, advanced
7! per cent, tho transactions at the board
amounting to IS, 900 shares.

Tho communication of his Honor the
Mayor, which was laid before the City Coun-
ell last evening, will be read with interest by
all who have any regard for the welfare Of
our city, in view Of the impending visit OF
the Asiatic cholera among US. The re-estab.
lishment of the Board of Health is proper
measure, and although its powers are neces-
sarily limited by laws of Congress respecting
our municipal Affairs, it will probably be
found very valuable auxiliary in the work
ofstsying the pestiIcnce when it comes.
1t is unfortunate for Us that we have never
had the services Of a regular Board of Health
with bureau of vital statistics that should
keep a registration of deaths. We are alto
gether in the dark respecting the mortality
of this city. In other places the number o
deaths per week and their causes is published
regularly, thus giving an index to the COM
parative health of the community and point.

gious diseases whenever such occur. The

Health, and however limited its powers may
be for the present their services as examiners
and advisors must prove very valuable. We
