From tho aboVe statistics it Will appear that
there is no important improvement in Ameri-
can shipping. During the nine monthB end
ing March 81, 1870, there was an Improvement
in foreign tonnage entered in United States
ports to the amount Of $4,000 tons over the
corresponding. period in 1863-G9; whilo the
comparative improvement in American ton
mage entered duTiug the same periods amount
ed to only 8.144 toms The returns OF clear
snccs present very nearly the Same results.
The improvement in our foreign trade does
not extend to American clips, there being z
steady increase in the tonnage OF foreign YES
sels engaged in our carrying trade It is eyi-
Dent that American zhippiug. is likely to be the
Inst branch Of industry to improve with the
times.
The following is summary Of the foreign
commerce of the United States during the 1fst
eight months Of the present financial wear,
as rs. compared with the corresponding period IN
1868-G9:

Public Conveyances.
The Washington dispatch to the Cincin-
from the New York Sun

natl Gazette of Saturday says:
Humphreys, the new Judge of the Su-
preme Court Of this district, was here to-
day, and made charge to the jury in test
case on the rights of colored passengers III
public conveyances. Douglas and his
brother, colored compositors ut the Govern
ment Printing Office, were elected from q
car on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
The defense is that Douglass and his brother,
at the time in question, entered chair car
and took two seats which had been already
engaged, and paid for; that the accused had
informed them that such was the case, and
requested them to vacate, and they
refusing to leave, force was used in
ejecting them from the car. Judge
Humphreys, in charging the jury, re-.
marked that this was an important case to
the travelling public, and that railroads,
steamboats, and other common carriers
could not, after holding themselves out 20
the people, make laws and rules to violate
the comfort and safety of passengers. The
common carrier has the power now to make
any distinction as to who shall take passage
with them. He reviewed the evidence in
the case, stating that smoking car to
which the prosecuting witness was directed,
was not frst-class car, and also said that
while no passenger has the right to bluster
through car or to attempt to thrust aside
the authority of the cond actor to keep Or
der, a conductor has no right to be rude to
passengers or to act hastily. Even had
these seats been engaged, it was an error of
the conductor to act hastily, and he should
first definitely ascertain whether they had
really been taken.
