The New York Commercial and FShaaeidi
Chronicle, of the 1st inst, has the following
touching the decline in the price of bread
stuff: -...--.-... .........-s3s15a s8faI -
The late heavy decline in the value of
breadstufs, though attended with results
not Immediately welcome tosome interests,
is yet one of the most suspicious features
connected with our national industries
that has occurred since the war. High
prices of food mean high prices for pro-
ducts generally; for the reason that the
cost OF human sustentation regulates the
cost for labor, and the cost of labor deter.
mines that of products. While, therefore,
food was high, we could not have healthy
condition in the industries at large. Nat
ural law, however, ultimately adjusts all
industrial irregularities; and the late high
prices Of grain were infallibly prophetic o.
the lower prices we have now reached. II
the war withdrew an undue proportion O
populations from the agricultural class
rendering farm labor scarce and the crops
light, the consequent high price of grair
made agriculture exceptionally profitable
inviting labor from less remuneratiye EN-
ployments,i and attracting immigration
from other countries. The rapidly will
which this process has worked out con
spicuous results is beyond what was gen
orally anticipated, and illustrates The
safety with which natural causes may b
trusted to remedy irregular movement
IN production and commerce. The follow
ing comparison will show the decline i,
the prices of breadstufs, at New York
within the last twelve months:

The New York Commercial and Financial
Chronicle OF the lst inst. gives the following
interesting summary OF the movement of
cotton over land this season:
Our readers are aware that ia January
last we made up to the beginning Of the
year, the amount of the cotton shipments
overland direct TO the mills, the result
showing 10000 bales so shipped, which
We added to our table of receipts Since
then our attempts to bring down this
movement to 4 later date have heretofore
been unsuccessful, because OF our failure to
obtain az full railroad returns as we de
sired. Figures received this week how
ever, enable us to give pretty correct
indication of the entire movement.
1t will be seen that the weekly quota
the mills have thus taken has materially
fallen off since the first of January, and
undoubtedly for the balance of the season
the movement will be on a still smaller
scale. The following formula will show
the results reached We give the state
ment in this form, as it is in accordance
with the crop reports; yet our information
could not and does not come from the
points of shipment except in one case, but
from the mills and railroads which deliver
to the mills:

Removed.

Our esteemed friend Sergeant Noyes
White has been removed from the
office of railroad mail agent between
this city and Rockville. Sergeant
White was a gallant soldier during
the war, having volunteered and
served four years, at the age of fifty
sevens He has made a good route
agent. discharging his duties with
prOmptness and accuracy. He is now
guillotined because he does not bow
te the Empire - Courier.
Sergeant WHITE has made faith
full aud accommodating mail agent, so
far as we are informed We think
the Courier, however, in its attempts
to make party capital. is doing him
positive injury IL is we'll known in
this community that the greater
Tart of the Sergeant's four years
army service was as steward ia
the Evansville hospitals, while his
successor, Lieut.. ROBERT ROWLAND
served his term of service at the front
under the fire of the enemy, fact the
Courier is careful to conceal from it's
readers. Lieut.. ROWLAND also served
his country faithfully during the
Mexican War. The Courier would
have acted more wisely if it had
avoided any contrast between the mil
itary merits of the two men. Besides,
Lieut.. ROWLAND has had considera-
BILE experience in Post Office business,
and will make an efficient and faith
ful agent.

charters to Women's Typographical
Union. Referred TO Committee on
Returns.
1t is reported there are 7,345 mem
bers in good standing. There have
been ? 256 members initiated within
the past year; IA have been expelled
aud 176 restored under the amnesty
proclamation.
The Committee on Subordinate
Unions reported favorably upon the
following subjects:
That apprentices to the printing
business should have a good grammar
education. Rejected.
That an organizer of Subordinate
Unions In Canada and tie Eastern
States be appointed, and his expenses
be paid By the National Union.
Tabled.
That the action of the Erie (Pa)
Union, in denOuHcing certain parties
as rats. and for which the members Of
the Union have been indicted tor
conspiracy and libel, be sustained.
On motion of Mr.. Miramon, the clause
was amended by piedging the efforts
of the members of this Union to
secure the repeal of the conspiracy
and libel laws; and the clause was
then adopted.
The Convention then went into
Committee on the new Constitution.
A debate arose on the second section,
which contained a provision looking
to granting charters to women Unions.
The proposition 10 amend SO as to
initiate against women charters was
lost. The section was amended so as
to require a scale of prices to be
adopted by one Union to be agreed
to by another Union in the same
town or city, and then adopted.
The third section, providing for
grantiGg charters to women's unions,
was then read, and amended so as to
allow women to join other than
wOmen's unions. The section was
then adopted, with but one or two
dissenting voices.
A section requiring that delegates
to the National Union shall be mem
bers IN good standing .in the Unions
they represent, was adopted.
, Article three, relative to the officers
and their election, was adopted.
Article four. relative to the duties
of officers, was taken up. but not dis
posed of, when the committee rose
and reported progress, and a recess
was taken.
At the afternoon session other arti-
cles of the Constitution were adopted,
and the whole instrument adopted by
168 to 16.
Miss Augusta Lewis, President of
the Woman's Typographical Union,
thanked the Convention for its action.
Mr. Beatty offered a resolution that
it is unjust for members Of Union to
receive and do work taken from a
place where there is a strike.
Adopted.
