Too Late--.Change Coming.

The Republican leaders, alarmed at
the demoralised and demoraIizing con-
dition Of the party Of great moral ideas,
consequent upon the recent Democratic
victories, are said to be taking counsel
together to see what can be done to re.
cover their lost ground. To that end,
the so called Union League General
Committee were in session here day
or two ago, and We now learn from
Washington that, in prosecution ofsome
new plan Of campaign, President Grant
has been, or win be, persuaded to make
important changes in the Cabinet, the
the foreign missions, aud the Custom
Houses, Post Offices etc.
The real trouble with the Republican
party to-day turns not upon this or that
set of men, in or out Of Office, but upon
the fact that the People are everywhere
describing it, and declaring in favor of
u thorough change Of federal aud State
administration. a party thus under
the popular ban, nothing can save. No
change Of meu can do it any good, so
long as the men are, as they must nc.
cessarily be, the inheritors Of their
predecessors principles aud policy. The
Union League Clubs, hence, are too late
with their revised "slate," aud Gen
Grant is but mapping out his new plan
of campaign, on their petition in vain.

The cheap transportation of grain
from the West is now attracting great
attention, and the method of using
bargcs on the great Northern lakes is now
being experimental with. Bargcs with
a capacity of $1,000 bushels Of wheat
are now building, and large steam tug
with capacity Of 10000 bushels has
been completed and is now employed 10
carrying grain. This steam tug, it is
reported, possesses sufficient power to
tow three bargcs of G5 900 bushels ca.
pacity each, and thus, with its own
freightage of 40 900, can transport 1885,.
600 bushels at one trip. The tug how
ever, has recently arrived at Buffalo. N
Y. having also bark in tow, and the
two vessels brought $4,000 bushels of
wheat, weighing 2,400 tous. The barg.
es in course of construction are to have
three short masts, with a schooner rig
and heavy canvas sails. The crew is "a
consist Of six hands. This method, il
is believed, has proved to be successful,
and will therefore reduce the freight
of grain from the Northwest.

EXPORTS OF PETRoLEUM--A cor.
respondent of the New York EseRinq
Mil, writing from Armstrong county,
Pa, gives some interesting facts aud
figures touching the production of pc.
.troleum in that State. We are told
that the total production for last year is
estimated at 3,Sl6,956 barrels of forty
three gallons each. This would seem
to overwhelm the market for all time.
but the export for that year alone of
refined and crude petroleum was 2,56S,.
7l5 barrels, against an export in 1861
of only 81 800 barrels. A fortnight
ago there cleared at Philadelphia for
Europe seven ships carrying ll6S,0O0
gallons of crude and refined oil. The
fleets already chartered in New York
aud Philadelphia will take out of the
country from 10Th of June to the mid.

ed oil. This exceeds by 5000 900 gal
Ions the export of the first seven months
of any year since this oil became an ar.
ticle of commerce. While the produc.
ton was increased the shipments abroad
have also increased, so that either By
accident or design the relation of sup.
ply aud demand is regulated with an
exactness which is notin the same degree

The terrible experience of the results
of stock gambling, in the case of young
Ketchum, who figured SO largely in the
gold check frauds a few years ago, and
for which he suffered a considerable
term of imprisonment, does not seem to
have taught him wisdom, to have brought
about the enduring renitence, people
heard so much about when his friends
were seeking pardon for him Among
the developments following the failure
of Mr.. Boyd, New York broker, day
or two ago, is the fact that the gold and
stock speculations of young Ketchum
were the means of piling up a large
portion of the heavy load which sunk
Mr. Boyd into bankruptcy. This was
another attempt to bull the gold mar
ket, which only resulted in breikins 1t
