The above table prepared by Ill. e. Abel, deputy
Rurvevor of the Port, shows the number of vessels
arrived at the Port of New-lork, exclusive of those
,mnloyed in the coasting trade, during the years
named. II win be seen that from 1867 when com
were had begun TO arrive after the injurious effects
of tbe war until 1870 the increase was regular and
natural. During the year 1870 the falling off
amounted to sos vessels.
1t win be observed that this decrease is almost
wholly in bIigs and barks and it is susceptible of
proof that il occurred almost entirely during the
four Quarantine months of June, July, August, and
September
The increase took place during the administra-
zion Of Dr. John Swinburne, appointed by Gov H. L.
FentOn.
The decrease beran Immediately after the up
pointnent Of DR.. Carnochan, the present Aea!'h
officer. by Gov. John T. Hoffman.
These facts are familiar TO every shipper ana mer
chant Of New-York, and many of those who have
suffered most directly by this falling off in the com
merce of the Port know why the difference exists
We propose now that all shall know how they have
been and still are robbed

BAGPIPEs.

Scotchmen, both in the Gland
o cakes" and out of it, have been
holding "high jinks" in honor OF
their cOuntryman' success in win
ming the hand of an English Prin-
cess. How often, We wonder, within
the last few days, have the mellifiu-
Gus accents of Caledonia's favorite
musical instrument been called into
requisltion? There is an occasional
difference of opinion-on this side
of the Tweed, at least-as to the
melody of the time-honored bag
pipe; but the claim of the bagpipes
to be the national instrument of our
northern neighbors is never dis
puted. An honor willingly to be
spared, says southern Midas, who
has no ear for its bewitching strains
But, after all, the bagpipe was not
so long ago an English institution.
The English were the original bag
pipers. During the sixteenth CEN
tury, the bagpiper was a regular
functionary in the establishment of
the English sovereigns and mobiles,
while no such musician was found
at the Scottish court; and the bag
pipe Is an importation from this
country. James [ used to play the
bagpipe; but he learnt it. among his
other accomplishments, in England.
The harp. till within very recent
times, has been the national instru-
ment of Scotland. In fact, the bag
pipe, save in the Highlands, has
never been very popular across the
border. In 1870, the magistrates of
Aberdeen issued the following sug-
gestive order: The magistrates
discharge the common piper of all
going through town, at night or in
the morning. in time coming, with |
his pipe: it brings an uncivil forme |
to be usit within sic a famous
and being often found fault |
with, as well by sundry neighbors of
the town as by strangers. The
truth, however, seems, to be that |
this much praised and much abused
instrument belongs to no one in
particular; it is found all over
Europe the present day. and its an
tiquitv is undeniable. Representa-
lions of it have been found in an
cient Greek sculpture; and one
learned italian has written a long
treateis on the bagpipe, to prove
hat it vas used in Greece at the
Nemean games. and in Palestine in
he Jewish svnagogues. Whether
he inliyi1uol who first ipvautaJ II
conferred lasting blessing on pos
Gritty is another question: Once a
Week.

THE HABITAT OF The B0WHEAD
WHALE.

The principal herding-places ot
the bowheads, in the Okhotsk, are
at the extremities of this great sheet
of water, the most northern being
the Northeast Gulf Gulf OF
GhijghiJ, and the most Southern
Tchantar Bay The whales do not
make their appearance in Northeast
Gulf so soon as in the bay. Whalers
endeavor. as soon as possible, to get
10 the head of Tchantar Bay. where
they are sure to find the objects of
pursuit in the immediate water be
tween the ice and the shore, long be-
fore the main body of the congealed
mass is broken up, and before the
ships can get between the ice and the
shore. even at high tide: the boats
being sent forward weeks in advance
of the ships. Soon after the ship
arrival. the whales avoid their pur-
suers by going under the main body
of ice. situated in the middle of the
bay, finding breathing-holes among
the conglomerate foe. The boats
cruise about the edge of this barrier.
watching for them to emerge from
their cover. which occasionally they
do, and are given chase to Instantly.
Frequently. in sailing along this
field of ice. the sound of whales
blowing is heard distinctly, when
no water is visible at the point from
whence the sound comes.
The first of the season, before the
ice breaks up and disappears. when
there are mo whales about. the
question is frequently asked, Where
are the whales?" and as often an
swered, They are in the ice. "
"When do you think they will come
Out?" when the ice leaves" 1t
has been established beyond ques
tion that this species pass from the
Atlantic to the Pacific, or. rather. |
if We may he allowed the expression,
from the Atlantic Arctic to the Pa
citic Arctic, by the north; and, too.
it is equally certain that numerous /
air-holes always exist in the ice that
covers the Arctic waters. even in the
coolest latitudes. These tiSsures are
caused by the rise and fall of the
tides; and storms, acting upon the
water hundreds of miles distant,
have their influence in rending
asunder the ice fetters of those
frozen seas. 1t seems not improba
ble that the bowheads, or polar
whales. have Il feeding and breeding
ground in an open Polar Sea. And
as they have never been seen during
the winter months in any other
quarter of the globe except as before
it would appear that
they must either remain among the
rough water and broken ice at the
southern edge of the winter barrier,
or migrate to some remote sea I'M {
known to men. Hence, may not the
clear water that Kane saw after pass i
ing the coolest latitude, as he pressed
be the winter home of
vast numbers of these gigantic ami
mails? Overland Monthly for June.

Archbishop Manning is out against
extravaganza in female attire. He
says: "Men have improved since
the last century in this respect, but
the attire of women has become more
costly, ostentatious and singular,
even to strangeness, and thus money
wasted which should clothe the
naked, feed the poor or educate
children"

Mr CHEERING FACTS FOR


THE BlLLIoUs.-Erery day demonstrates more
clearly that liver complaint, in all its dis
tressing forms, can be controlled and cured
without difficulty or Inconvenience. 1t is
an obstinate disease, but its obs,nacv IL
MT proof against the pert!naclous, rcme-
dhl and restorative operation Of Hostel
ter's Stomach B;;ttcrs. That genial cor.
rcc,ive conpeis the organ to do its duty.
1t mutt stcrete regularly and heslthiully
uuder the influence of the Bit,ers, Their
action brings it back from state ofrebe'"
lion into perfect harmony with the laws o.
health. If there is costiveness, it disap
pears; if there is side-ache or back ache, 1t
ceases, if the skin and the whites OF the eyes
are tingcd with Superaous bile, they recover
their natural hue; if the appetite is gone,
tt returns; i! the digestion is impaired, it is
restored in brief, whatever the symptoms
of the complaint may be, and whatever the
phase 1t has assumed, care IS ceTtalll.
Such are the uniform effects Of this prepa-
ration where bilious disease has been al
ready development; but in cases where
there is merely constitutional tendency to
liver complaint, it may prevented through
out life by the regular use, in small guam
titles, OF this palatabIe an;idote. These are
proven facts, and should be seriously pom
dered-or rather, they should be promptly
acted upou-by al! persons Of bilious hab-
it. Mar /, 9-lm.

Germ. Sincerely desiring the prosperity

auspicious act of my life if I could be
productive Of any good as paclticator.
1t is not necessary for the to enlarge
upon the terrible evils which threaten the
State if the aatagonisms Of our society
are moi repressed. Ny idea is that the
true road to peace is by peaceful means
by Justice and kindness to all classes
so that none maY feel themselves alien
from the government. | am not San
guine Of the effect Of laws unless they
are sustained by public opinion.
Ny object, then, in addressing yon is
to ask your aid in arou>ing and concen-
trating the opinion Of all good citizens in
favor of law ard order. Knowing your
intelligence and good Intentions, I ven
ture, though not of the same political
organization as yourself, to invoke your
aid in the premises.
Ny suggestion is, that You put your
selves in communication with the leading
citizens in the respective coan'ies Of the
S,ate, 70 rs to organize and combine the
moral power Of tho State in favor Of
peace, good order, and obrdiencc TO the
