Those who do not like plain talk
better not read the following which we
take from an exchange. "Crime takes
on its fashions Just as women take on
theirs. A few years ago garroting was
lust as much the fashion on the streets
as the Grecian Bend of to-day. No man
was safe. The garroter was our shadow
transforming itself into suffocatiDg cor
poreality at the most inconvenient mo-
ments. Pocket books trembled with in
stinctiye terror and skunk away into
unaccustomed hiding places. Two, three
and five years sentences were passed, but
garroting fourished with increased vigor.
At last, inspired with something ct the
feeling that prom pied the old gentleman
who had failed, on a famous occasion
with grass, to try stones. a New York
and London Judge simultaneously com
menced sentencing garroters all the way
from FIVE to forty years imprisonment
The result was that the c'ire soon al
most entirely disappear from: the calender
Just now the criminal epidemic is sabortion
in other words fashionable ante-natal
child killing. Let the law reach its
stern, grim hands into the homes-no,
the houses, not homes of the hdut ton
danes of Fifth and other avenues, in
habited by corrupt but guided wealth
and drag forth the unnatural creature in
female form, guilty of the most cowardly
of all murders, to. an adequate punish
ment. Let detective police force be
organized to bring this class of criminals
to justice and let the first woman, rich
or poor high or low, who murders her
unborn babe be sent to the penitentiary
for life Abortion would then disappear.

Baltimore was thoroughly established in
l745, one hundred and twenty three years
ago. The population of San Francisco is
| about l SO, 900, and that OF Baltimore not
less than 100000 These statistics are
pregnant with valuable suggestions, as
forming the groundwork of differences of
an most important character. The rains
have been very copious for some time,
and farmers throughout the State regard
them as the assurance of most abund-
ant harvest. 1t is estimated by all com
petent authorities that the wheat yield of
1869 will be greately in excess of any ey-
er realized in the country Vast tracts
never before under cultivation have been
plowed and seeded, and now give every

the results equal present expectations, we

Add to this prospect the certainty that
We have now on hand surplus OF 3. 400,

that exporters are prepared and willing
to purchase freely of our wheat for

aretakenlnto account, that loss is almost
certain to accsue. During the period under

grain at rates now off red, believing that
better prices will rule before another har-
vest, although they admit that the pres

less active than for some time past, yet
leading holders are unwilling to make any
abatement in rates. The demand from
the mountain districts is and will be large
all through the season, there being no
substitute for that grain.

THE INCOMING REPRESENTATION

There are those of such sanguine tenn.
peraments that they are continually look.
ing for the millennium. They anxiously
expect the day to dawn when evil shall no
longer exist on tie earth, and man releas-
ed from the thralldom of sin shall once
more be, what he was at first created, "a
little lower than the angels " Weshould
be overjoyed to greet such {. day but must
confess that so far in the dim future does
it now seem, that, in the pertinent slang
of the hour, zoe can tssee it. And others
of this class OF sarguine people are fully
in the belief that when Gen. Grant shall
take up the reins of government he will
drive the public cart safely past every dis
honest politician, every fraudulent scheme
for plundering the treasury and eventually
bring the people TO land of promise
where there are no heavy taxes to pay,
and no National debt to worry and distract
legislators. And from this class we beg
to be counted out.
We have great faith in Gen. Grant.
He is man of very few words but noted
for prompt decisive action. Of all men
he is the one We should select to combat
the crowd OF hungry, half crazed Office
seekers who are disgrace to the age and
the country they live in. He is gentle
l,,k ~ ho oh
with him certain impenetrable dignity
which confounds alike the high and the
low, the rich and the poor, and thus is
he left perfect master of the situation.
But he has a mighty work before him
now greater in some respects than ever
awaited a president before. Bands OF
men, of great wealth and no principle,
have associated themselves together, and
under the style of Rings seek to gain
control of the government. With their
gold they seek to influence the passage
of bills giving them valuable lands which
belong to the people, thus adding to their
wealth and power-this is the Railroad
ring-and legislators are hired to say
nothing about the frauds on the revenue
to an extent of many, many millions of
dollars annually-and this is the whiskey
ring. We might name others, but this
is sufficient to show the work that Is to
be DONE Can these monstrous schemes
of villainy be suppressed? Is Gen.
Grant the man to do it? We think they
eau be, and we think Grant is the best
| man for the business, though We are 10th
to believe that these giants can be oyer
come in an instant. 1t will require time,
and will require the assistance OF all
right minded men to annihilate these
heartless monopolies which are daily
growing more bold and grasping, and are
drawing in to themselves all the rich re
suits of the hardy pioneers Industrious
life. We would see these good thing:
more evenly distributed, as they certainly
will be if Grant succeeds in grinding the
Rings beneath his feet. Don't let us be
too confident that this will be done, but
let us hope.

that because a man becomes murderer

a triumphant repeal of the statues

While we are at all times ready to ad-

must say that any attempt to make the

this respect, his whole argument falls to

views, while buyers gradually conceded
the difference. The general tone for a
week or two past has been one OF firm.
ness, operators looking at the fact OF
present low prices, and comparing them
with low stocks in England, caused by
the lightness of importation last year on
declining market during the last half
of tie season. They argue that there will
necessarily be good demand from Eng
land in the spring, which will send up
prices. This may be so /; it must. how
ever. be remembered that England had a
large Wheat crop herself, and that the
Baltic regions and California have large
surplus stocks to dispose of, and that our
own stocks here and those of New York
arc absolutely plethoric in the aggregate,
and will prove to be so full that anything
like stringency is out Of the question
Then the prospect Of good crop next
season is very fair. Putting these things
together, they scarcely argue in favor OF
a large appreciation In prices ON the OPEN
ing Of navigation, though quotations may
advance somew hat up to that time. There
is generally an appreciation of prices in
the early spring, owing to the miserable
condition of the roads in the country,
which are death to travel on wheels, and
cause light receipts here. 1t is doubtful
if any amount of speculative fnancieIing
can get Wheat up very much at present,
though the cereal is lower than it ought
to be by comparison with other grains
now, and itself in former years. The
reason is that it is fully as high here to-
day as is allowed by the cost of putting
it down at Liverpool, and there are other
places SO ready to supply in such large
quantities if we do not, that there IS lit
tie danger of British prices being forced
up to a much higher point than now.
There is too much competition between
sellers for that.
We clip the following from the San
Francisco Market Reuie,o of January 80:
g In 1858 San Francisco exported $22,
600, 900. worth of produce, gold value,
or nearly double as much as Baltimore
This is entirely exclusive of our treasure
exports, which amounted to nearly $43,
900, 900 in round numbers, making a
combined export trade of merchandise
and treasure to the value of $55, ,O00, 600,
or nearly $54, 600. 600 more than Balti-
more. San Francisco became an Ameri-
can possession in 184S. twenty years ago ;
