FEES TO SARATOGA WATERS.

A correspondent, writing from Sarato-
ga, describes the cooperation system
which he asserts prevails among the hotel
walters at that famous watering place:
There is less red tape at a Saratoga ho-
tel than at any other hostelry in America:
But there are more negroes. You will
have no tronble with anybody if you
make it all right with the blacks. This
year they have it all their own way, and
have reduced their system to the most
perfect working order 1t is the old and
time-honored system of gratuities, but it
is put upon new and singularly exact
basis of cooperation. There is a nomin-
nal sum charged at all the first-class ho-
tells, say five dollars day for board, but
this is a mere baggatelle; the real ex-
pense is the gratuities. Fill one OF these
hotels as full as you can get 1t with guests,
and then there will still be three negroes
to every one of them. Every negro ex-
poets to make enough in the three months
Saratoga campaign to keep him all the rest
of the year in affluence, and he generally
manages it. He extorts money from his
victims at the rate of twenty-five cents an
hour. Itis aworse tyranny than the trades
unions. The black hydra cannot be
reached-you are completely at his mercy.
His fundamental theory is that the average
American would rather be swindled out of
his eye teeth than thought poor or parsi-
monious. 1t is in the dining room that he
has the American completely at a disad-
vantage. Fail to give him fifty cents at
your first meal and when you come again
your chair is turned over, and he waves
YOU on with a lordly gesture. That ges-
ture is contemptuous and telegTaphic. So
tar as the other negroes are concerned, it
means: Look out for that fellow, he
doesn't pay" They will then guard their
tables from you scrupulously until you get
to the bottom of the room, to place re-
served for delinquents and celebrated for
the corrugated character of its steaks and
the billiard bali consistency of its biscuit.
The only way to escape from this purga-
tory is to kneel at once to the first waiter
you can find, acknowledge your error and
pay him dollar. This done the fact will
be telegraphed to every black in the room,
and YOU will be allowed to endure. l
found nothing new in this but the admira-
BILE system of it, which is another evidence
of the influence of trade cooperation.
Last season a shrewd New York fellow
conceived the idea of paying these fellows
off in their own coin, and came provided
with supply of counterfeit stamps. His
liberality liked to have killed him the first
day, for he overrated himself, and could
not move foot without having q relay of
negroes on him with broom brushes. On
the third day matters changed. His chair
was turned over, his bed was hard, his
boots were spoiled. his coat got secret
mark from some nigger's broom brush. he
was doomed man he saw that he was
the subject of sneers and jibes. and all the
black arts of the tribe. Finally, in des-

BURGLARY, BURGLARY.

We have to announce two moro
attempts at burglary in our village
the unsuccessful attempts OF prowl-
ing fclons, who do their work, when
all honest ps sople arc in their beds.
On Wednesday night last, an en-
trance was effected through IL win
dow into the chamber Of tho resi-
dcnce Of Mrs. james NJ. Perrin, iu
which she and somo Of the children
were sleeping. She was awakened by
the nnise, between II and l o'clock
at night and putting out her hand
touched tho whiskers of tho burglar,
but failed to recognize him in the
darkness. This discovery to,ethcr
with the cry Of the children alarmed
him and he made off, without getting
the plunder which he was seeking.
His muddy tracks were visible iu
different parts Of the room, rs well
as the bench upon which he mounted
| to effect his entrance.
On the same night and about the
same hour, Ir. Andrew Small, was
aroused from his sleep by tho break
ing Of one of the Stats which protect.
Cd q window Of the hall room of his
residence. Upon going to the room
he found that an entrance had been
made by burglar through tho win
dow and his sudden appearance forced
him to decamp without his being able
70 effect his purpose.
These repeated attempts will im-
press our citizens with the necessity
iof increasing their vigilance. 4 few
ounces Of prevention in the shape OF
cold lead may be worth a pound of
euro in the way Of legal punishment.

PRICE OF CorToN.-Noting the fact
that tho receipts of cotton had lately
fallen off $4,000 bales in q week, tho
Memphis Avalanche argues that the
theory that cotton would go up as the
receipts decrease is not tcnablc. A
very considerable decrease, much lar.
ger than is anticipated, might have
this effect; otherwise as gold must &c
down for the next monh or two, sand
at the best will net exceed l20 during
the season, except from speculative
causes. bad crops, Or Initiation of the
currency, the first and the last being
very improbable, and the other con,
tinscncics not more than possible" it
follows that the very best cotton can
expect "is a steady market at the
present" Tho Avalanche says:
The best authorities estimate the
crop Mt about 2,75O,OOo bales. Esti,
mating that the result will not vary
from this more than $4,000 bales, and
that tho range of gold will be from
1lo to l20, cotton will do well TO
maintain a uniform scale Of prices
from now until September, or at
least until cause for au advance is
shown in the crop prospects of the
coming season. o.. .'-...
