The London correspondent of the Financial Clront-
Gle writes April 81
The more prominent feature of the present week
Is the advance to per cent in the bank rate of dis
count The determination OF the directors OF the bank
to raise their terms for accommodation per cent
took everybody by surprise for such alteration
was expected Looking however, at the bank re-
turns for the week, and to other disturbing in1u-
proper course inasmuch as they can easily retrace
the step they have taken as soon as The desired re-
suit shall have been accomplished The bank state
ment shows that the demands upon that institution
during the week have been very considerable. The
close or the quarter and OF the financial year has
led to decided activity in the inquiry for money as
shown IN the increase OF fl 006 326 IN the amount
OF otner securities. the government has also been
sequence has been ta both the stock OF bullion and
the reserve OF notes and coin are materially reduced
Those changes alone, however, do not justify rise
IN the bank rate. They are simply peculiar or Incl
denial to the period of the year, for the loan to the
government will, probably, be soon repaid, while
the advances obtained by the public ON bills VIII be
returned as soon as the dividends have been paid,
which wiz be In the course OF next week. 1t
may be inferred, therefore, that the directors have
not been influenced by the mere quarterly demand
on the part OF the government aud the public; for
the changes thus caused will soon be rectifed.
Without doubt they have been induced to raise their
terms so Unexpectedly by the fall in the New York
exchange TO 1874 and by The withdrawal OF fsl6ooo
revival of the demand Tor specie for America has
been apprehended for some time, owing to the large
purchases OF United States securities by investors in
Europe; but, at the same time, 1t has been man-
tanned that there a balance Of trade against the
United States and very large amount OF interest
VIII have to he paid on the LIST OF May, on the Ave-
twentes 1t was not expected that the export would
assume any serious proportions AS, however, the
financial houses Of Europe are now buying up the
coupons attached to tine securities m question, large
amounts OF capital Will be required, and 1t Is be-
sented for payment there will be n demand for ex-
change on London ut New York and altered state
OF the markets for money aud bullion. We may ex-
pect, therefore, some frmness in the money market
until the operation is completed.

For The Cecil Wbg
To THE HONORABLE MANAGErss OF
OBJ FELLOWS HALL.-Why is the Hall
on Lecture nights heated like a furnace ?
Why is every breath of air (saye hot
air) excluded?
Why is Lecturer like Mr.. Sykes
forced to take hot air bath, evidently
much to his discomfort
No one can enjoy Lecture, however
fine, while gasping for breath.
Who felt any sympathy on Wednes-
day evening for those miserable wretches
in New York? Did not their own
intense suffering abscond it all?
l noticed several gentlemen who
seemed almost ready to faint: but
fortunately they could land did fan
themselves with their hats.
Did not the Managers of the Hall
observe the cough that became general,
towards the close of the Lecture?
Dr. - says it was nature asking for
breath of pure air. Was any one
surprised that Mr.. Sykes's voice became
feeble and hoarse?
The marvel is that it did not fail en-
tirely.
After January 18th 1869, if nothing
happens to improve the atmosphere Of
the Hall, any one is welcome to nv
season ticket. CRUsrY GRABBED.
For the past three or four years The
Wing has frequently called the attention
of those having charge of rooms, where
large bodies of people gather, to the
Importance of proper ventilation but
with very Indifferent success. We hone
"Crusty" will be more successful.

Coughs and COlds.-During the change
able seasons of Fall and Winter, when
coughs and colds are SO frequent, no person
should be without some valuable prepare
ton for their cure. They should recollect
that a neglected cough or cold frequently
terminates in consumption. Hasson's
Compound Syrup Of Tar is the best and
most reliable article known for the cure of
coughs, colds, hoarsness, chronic, catarrhs,
sore throat, asthma, and all diseases of the
throat and lungs. No family should be
without it. Price so cts. Sold at II. H.

will The Democrat tell its readers
what fruits of Southern husbandry"
the people oil Plymouth have ever fat
tened upon" which they did not buy in
the markets of the world and honestly
pay for? And when that has been an
swered will it further enlightcn it's read
ers by informing them how many mil
lions of manufactured goods Southern
husbandmen and merchants are in debt
to the Plymouth people-we use the
word Plymouth as representative eX-
pression-dcbts that were repudiated
and confscated by the C. S. A., and
people? And still another question :
If the people of Jamestown-we use
this word also in representative sense
have had their property ravished
and scattered" whose fault was IT,
Did they not like robbers seize the
property and defy the laws of the
United States, and when the Govern
ment sent its officers to claim the prop
erty thus ravaged, and execute its laws,
did they not fire on, and murder these
servants of the Government? These
people were law-breakers and dispoilcrs
of the Government which was compell-
ed to use the requisite force to subduc
them, just as Sheriff Alexander would
do in case of an individual outlaw guilty
of similar crimes on smaller scale
If the outlaw lost his property or his
life in the conflict with the Sheriff, who
would be adjudged, the guilty party ?
The Sheriff or the culprit? The James
townian's did these things which pro-
voked the contest that resulted in hav-
ock to their property. Will The DEM
ocrat answer who were the culprits, the
outlaw or the Sheriff; the Jamestown
ian's or the Government?

coming more and more thoroughly convin-
ced of the superior washing qualities of the
WILMINGTON CITY SOAR. The articles of
which it is composed are so thoroughly
neutralized that you need have no fear of
rottiDg your clothing. The patent and
labor-saving soaps of the day are doing
more to rot and destroy clothes than all
the wear the clothes receive. If you will
use WILMINGTON CITY Soar according to

to save as much time and labor as any soap
in the market, without any risk of injuring
the clothes. Pure and full weight

The Exhibition and TabIeaux.

1HC IAAfDtlOu nHu luUltuuAs- ne ell
tertainment given by the NJ. E. Sabbath
School, in the Odd Fellows Hall, on Christ
mas night, was attended by an audience
that filled every nook and corner of the
room. The performances were very credit
able, both to the children and those en-
gagged in getting up the affair. The sing
ing by the children was excellent, consid-
ering the heated state of the room the
situations by Masters Joseph Wells and
Fred. S. Lewis, were well delivered
Whittiers' Cable Hymn was read by Mas
ter Harry c. Hurn with distinctness and
an ease that is seldom witnessed in one of
his age the Three Little Kittens, sung by
Bessie Terrell, Annie Rhodes and Ida
Crawford, was encored by the audience
the Christmas Carroll, by Bessie Terrell, a
little girl of four years, was noticeable
feature. The Tableaux were well execut-
ed. But owing to sad deficiency of
knowledge of politeness, or an utter dis
gust for the rights of others, portion of
the audience in the centre of the hall rose
to their feet whenever the curtain was
drawn. By this action those who had too
much respect for themselves to be guilty of
such breach of propriety entirely failed
ia see the Tableaux, which created dis
satisfaction, and, to some extent, confu-
sion.
The affair was held again on Monday
night, with considerable change of pro-
gramme,-and was witnessed by quite a
large audience.

Now that it is settled that there
will be March session of the Forty
first Congress, the Republican candi.
dates for the Speakership are forming
their combinations. The applicants, in
the order of their strength, are Blaine,
Of Maine; Dawes, of Massachusetts
Garfield, Of Ohio; Cullom, of Illinois
Kelly, of Pennsylvania, and Banks, Of
Massachusetts,. Of this list, Blaine and
Dawes are the only two who appear to
have anything like chance, and Mr.
Blaine, by oil probabilities, has the in.
side track.
Mr.. Mcpherson will have no oppo.
nent for the Clerkship among his party,

vote for him also.

insured by Grants election, is setting
toward the more southern States which
Congress has laid the strong hand on,
and redeemed from rebel thraldom, and
is going round Kentucky and Mary
land, the only two States in the nation,
where the ethics and political economy,
taught in the slave pen, are in the as
cendant, cursing the lands that nourish
them. We hope Congress will not long
delay to visit these two remaining ref
ugcs of the Ishmaelite, with wholesome
reforms, when this troop of letter-press
asses, of which THE CECIL DEMocAAT

The Democrat like Andy johnson,
having swung round the circle at black
guarding every person and thing that
is of good report, pays its indecent re-
spects to the ladies in last weeks issue.
A faithful imitator of such Democratic
obscuritics Us Jim Wall and Delaware
Salisbury, it turns up its nose at every
decent thing and pronounces every lady
"virago who has talent enough to
think and speak regardlessly of such
cattle and their vulgar, low bred slam
ders. The Democrat, like all of its
class, loves darkness much better than
light, and if chance does not present
itself, manages to make one for dirty
fling at New England. When q print
ing press was wanted to work the pa
per that is continually reeking with OBJ
loquy toward the people and institu-
tons of New England, The Democrat
didn't go down into its dearly beloved
Egypt to seek one, but it sent to New
England. A more cutting satire upon
the narrow mindedness, and little mean
ness of the spirit continually manifested
in its very small way, by The Demo-
crat, toward New England, than is con-
tanned in this simple fact, could not be
well conceived. New England sup
plies the greater portion, and the best
of the books, the machinery, the schol-
ars, and the largest part of the wealth
which pushes forward with such gigan-
tic strides this nation in the path of
Empire. These things are patent to
the world; but where is the use, we
hear the reader say, to consume time
in exposing the malicious ignorance of
such an ass as The Cecil Democrat. If
it had any influence or standing in the
public, we might hope that its echoes
of malice from the grave of the rebel
lion would provoke the delivery Of a
lecture in our town in the cause of ed
ucation from lady lecturer, but alas !!
the status of that concern forbids any
such expectation.
