A Moro in t1e Right Dlrection.

WE observe in some OF the New York papers
call for meeting upon a subject of more
than ordinary interest to the travelling pub
lie. A number of the prime pal hotel proprie-
tors are about to perfect measures for reduc-
ing the charges per diem in their various
establishments. During the progress of the
war and since its close, boarding at hotels has
been tax on travellers which few were
either willing or able to undergo. The con-
sequence was, that the merchants of the West
remained at home, and bought goods in small
lots at the most convenient point at which
they could be procured. Necessarily this
decreased the trade of the seaboard cities, and
the enormous prices charged by the hotel
keepers acted as a sort OF prohibitive mea-
sure or embargo upon the prosperity and
growth of our commercial centres. 1t
was also ruinous policy for the
hotelkeepers themselves, but at present
there is no excuse for the extortionate
prices which have ruled for the past four
years Gold has rapidly declined, and will
soon touch ante-war rates. From the enor-
nous premium of 2S5, 1t has surely and
steadily declined until yesterday it could be
had in I bird street for 127. Every commodity
and necessary of life is following gold in its
decline. 1t is time that hotel-keepers and
boarding house proprietors had discovered
this deeply interesting fact House rents are
not very likely to come down as long as real
estate agents can induce owners to keep them
for sale. Large numbers of persons are
obliged by the exigencies Of business to pass
considerable portions OF their time at hotels,
and they will hear with satisfaction that the
prospect of reasonable decrease OF their ex-
pendtures is probable Could not our Phi
ladelphia hotel. keepers make movement in
the same direction?

fcr'unes invested in its real estate and what
ever tends to increase its population, attract
capi al here, and simulate ITS industry, must
greatly enhance the value of their property
and swell their revenues from it, whether In
the fcrm of rents or otherwise.
On The whole, the present movement to
open direct trade between the leading
Southern ports and Philadelphia must, If car
rieo out successfully, benefit all classes of the
people and all should, therefore, contribute TO
the extent of their ability in promoting the
final and complete accomplishment OF the
undertaking. Time is valuable in such
matter, and none should be lost by indecision
and tempoIizing. Let our people remember
that while they delay, Others are reaching out
their hands to grasp the Pile.

ROYAL legitimacy.


Mrs. Ryves has a suit pending in the
English Court of Divorces to establish her
claims to royal rank. She pretends to be
legally descended from the Duke of Cum
berland, brother of George III; but it is
said that this marriage of the Duke with
Mrs. Ryves' grandmother was illegal, in
not having received the royal assent, ac-
cording to the statute.
In the course of the testimony it comes
out that George III was secretly married to
Hannah Lightfoot three years before his al
lance with Charlotte, and if the former
marriage should be sustained, Victoria is
illegftimate and has no right to the throne.
The evidence on this point is of the same
character as that which relates directly to
the case of Mrs. Ryves.
On this subject we have no other refec-
ton than this-that if all crowned heads
could be proved illegitimate and dethroned,
and if no legitimate prince or princess royal
could be found on the face Of the earth, it
would be no serious loss to mankind except
ID moral point of view-and that would
not be much, seeing that all kingcraft is 8
continued crime against human rights.
1t is sought to defeat Mrs. Ryves on the
ground that the several hundred documents
on which she relies are forgeries.-Er.
