years ago, after all the conditions which led
TO its adoption have been reversed? l believe
that we should secure to American ships at
least one-half of the shipping engaged in our
commerce with foreign nations. More than
that we have no right to demand, for the
trade is just as much theirs as ours. We
can accomplish this result by protecting our
shipping by some effective means, limiting,
in some degree, the privilege which British
steamers now enjoy of carrying on our COM
merce with every nation on the globe, and
proving once more to the whole world, by the
flag at the masthead of our merchant ships,
that the United States has not yet made an
assignment of her maritime interests
Very respectfully, yours,

The resignation of Collector Murphy OF
New York is sensible step for him and
the republican party. 1t appears, accord
ing to his letter resigning his place and
the reply of the President, that he has
managed the Collectorship well and salts
factorily, showing an increase of revenue
and decrease of the cost of collection, but
as he stands openly charged by prominent
republicans with previous fraud aud cor
ruption, his retiring, under the circum-
stances, is a relief to his friends and the
government.

employer al that place lately finished n
large barrack for them, the lower floor of
which was unoceupied. "A few nights
ago" says the Tribune, "he observed
mysterious lights in the rooms on this
floor, and, suspecting mischief. cautiously
approached the building. fully armed and
prepared to punish the supposed maraud-
ers. lie reached one Of the rooms in
which the lights were burning and pushed
open the door-to discover that the wick
ed and unchristian wretches had carpeted
the apartment. furnished it with large
table, placed in the centre Of the floor, and
that a score OF them were gathered about

The last month witnessed great politi-
cal innovation in Russia For the first time
in the history of that country State trial
has been public, and all its details have
been published in the newspapers. The
persons tried took part in the Communist
disturbances of lSG0-70, which culminat-
ed in the murder OF a student The publ
cation of the evidence has had an excel
lent effect, in that it has enlightened the
the people, and made them less liable to
be made the dupes of willy political con-
spirators. The leaders of the conspiracy
were without ability, and seemed anxious
only to purchase Il little notoriety, fleeing
on the first approach of danger Alto
gether the plot has probably been more
productive of good than evil, since it has
caused the custom of public trials for such
offences to be introduced into Russia.

Prince Alexis Alexandrovitch, Grand
Duke of Russia, was born January / 1,
1850 (January by the Russian calendar,
old style). He has had good German
education. and active training both as Il
military and naval officer, being aide-de-
camp to his father, colonel in the army
and lieutenant in the Finland fleet. He
has been influenced by his liberal educa-
ton in favor of liberal political principles
and is thus decidedly out of harmony with
the reactionaly Old Russian party and
with his oldest brother, Alexander, the
Cesarevitch, or heir to the throne, who
has the instincts and policy OF a tyrant, and
whose influence is now felt more at the
Russian court than ever Among all the
thousands of columns which have been
written about Alexis, there is little more
than this that is of interest to the Amer can
public, says the New York Post.

The letter in another column, in rela
ton to shipbuilding, from Mr.. Joseph
Nimmo, Jr., of the Treasury Department,
takes the ground in favor of protection for
our ocean shipping. He holds that we
should make discriminating charges on
goods imported in foreign bottoms, so as
to limit the freedom which British vessels
now enjoy of carrying our commerce to
all parts of the globe, and secure for our
own ships part, at least, of the business
All measures looking to the Improvement
of our shipping interests are matters of
importance now.

The most effective rcbuke of mob law
on record is that of prisoner named
Cheek, who was visited in his cell in the
Brookville Jail, in Indiana, on Saturday
by mob intent on hanging him. Cheek
met them at his cell door, knocked down
the first conner, seized revolver and COM
menced firing into the crowd with an en-
ergy and precision that soon convinced
them of the Illegally of their proceedings.
