THE ICE QUESTION.

The unusual character of the weather
during the greater part of the past winter
in the North, and the consequent sup
posed diminution in the ice crop, have
emboldened the ice companies of New
York to increase the price of this article.
The hotel-keepers who have lately re-
duced their prices for board, would not
stand this, and have determined to form
an ice company Of their own. The New
York Times commends the action Of the
hotel-keepers in resisting the extortion Of
the ice companies;l for there was not the
slightest excuse for the increase of prices,
as there is any quantity of ice to be had a
little way off from New York. 1t says:
People might have supposed that the city
had been suddenly transported to the tropics.
The threatened advance deserves no other
name than conspiracy, and, inIself-defense,
the hotel-keepers are going to organize an
independent company Let them supply
private citizens with ice-they will find it
pay them well. The existing ice companies,
with their " stand and deliver" policy, can
soon be put to the right about. In times
like these an occasional outburst OF public
spirit would do far more good than the old
plan of leaving the newspapers to fight the
matter out

Thu Cotton Market.

Concerning the coarse of the cotton mar
ket, the New York World says:
The market in this country has been
sustained since October, by purchases on
time at higher prices than the current mar
ket. This system of buying at high prices
for delivery in months ahead, has thrown
the whole weight of the cotton market on
spectators with inadequate means to stand
against any great or sudden decline in
prices. The bankers and legitimate dealers
in cotton have been acting with caution
throughout the season, so that they have
no material interest in doing anything TO
prevent a sudden break in prices. 1t is we'll
known to those in the cotton trade, that
the market has never been in more dam
gerous condition than at the present time.
Its whole weight is resting on ring of
spectators in the Southern country and
New York, who are already weakened in
their cash capital by the gradual decline in
prices which has been going on steadily
since the season opened. When these peo-
pie have lost their cash and credit, which
may happen on any day, then the cotton
market is liable to panic, in which prices
may surge downward as much too low as
they are now too high.

Paul Gerard, the French gentleman who
recently married Miss Wormley, publishes
the following card in the Washington Neac

Joined myself in alliance with your people, by
marrying Miss Marie B. Wormley, I acted
without any mental reservation, and con-
tinue without any after thought. AS a
Frenchman, I never indulge in prejudices,
which appears to me not only to be nom
sense but wrong; as Christian. do
not permit any kind of prescription
against my brothers by nature; and as q
man, do not recognize any imaginary line as
dividing men, except the one separating an
honest one from q knave. am ex.
tremely interested in every step of the
struggle in which you are engaged, espe.
cially for securing social privileges. The
negro has now his share of political and
social rights, which shall not be taken from
him, and he has lent his endeavors for the
advancement of the noble and general
aspirations of all times, of all nations,
which will be accomplished by-and by
"equity, liberty. fraternity" well-known
gentleman in Washington, says about my
marriage that "it belonged to the twentieth
century" Although in his mind it was a
condemnation of my course. yet accept
this word as compliment, for think the
twentieth century will be as intelligent GER
tainly as the nineteenth now is, and the
logic of events, incessant in its steps toward
humanity and progress, will not be stopped
by unreasonable prejudices."

THE CITY CHARTER,

The House took up Mr.. Alexander's
bill-the city charter-at the evening
session on Monday, and adopted it on its
third reading. 1t is now before the Sem
ate, where we hope it will receive the
prompt attention its Importance entities
it to. We have no doubt of its success,
if it's friends see that it is brought up in
its regular order. We now look to our
friends in the Senate to do their duty, and
give US city charter suitable to the re-
quirements of the times. Remember,
there are but two more days for work,
and much remains to be done. We hope
this the most important measure yet I'M
finished, will not be neglected.

We copy this from the AtakdpdS Register,
which shows what exclusive grants are be-
slowed on the great steamship monopolist.
Last Wednesday the Council of the town
ofBrashear gave Mr.. Charles Morgan grant
of seventy.five feet more wharf front on the
northern terminus of the prior grant. This
will cross the foot of Everett street. AS
the corporation has still few hundred feet
left fronting on the bay, would it not be ad-
visable for the city fathers to grant the
same to Morgan? The town would then be
strongly fortified against war vessels, oyster
and fishing boats. Moss and wood boats
could easily affect a landing outside of the
corporation, and old Aaron with his carts
would haul the wood into town at fair
price per load. Certainly Mr.. Morgan should
have the balance of the towns front, even if
the Council are obliged to pay him for TAX

sl,LL RALLY IN THE SPR1N0.''
BY TIM LINKINwATER.

A short time before his death, our lament
ed friend, the late George H. Meek, having
been asked how he felt, replied ~ am
weaker to-day than usual, but I'll rally in
the spring."
I'll be better when the summer comes,
When fields and meads are green,
Sweet health will come to glad my soul,
I'll be as have been.
No sickness then shall make my frame
A weakly tremb bling thing.
My heart shall then be full of joy
I'll rally in the spring."
Spreads bright DER hill and lea,
Peace to his ashes-he's at rest
Beneath the old oak tree.
Comrades and friends have laid him down
Where birds his requiem sing
He slumbers where they all sleep we'll
He rallied ere the spring."
No more he'll cheer the home fireside
With tales OF camp and love,
Nor, sleeping, start to think he hears
The call which true men prove.
Brave soldier brother, never more
He'll hear the bugle ring
The sounds he loved, when under Lee
He rallied in the spring."
His heart, like woman's true and fond,
His soul as lions brave,
Teach US this lesson, as we stand
Beside his honored grave:
Only the good are truly loved;
Deaths terrors to them bring
A great reward; with him they hope
To "rally in the spring."
Farewell. dear friend, may Gilead's balm
Descend with soothing power
Upon the hearts who mourn thy loss,
In this, their trials hour.
May we, who still on life's great wave,
Our joys and SORROWS fling,
With thee be found when we are called
To rally in the spring."
