The great event upon the street yesterday
was the opening of the Cotton Exchange,
accomplished in the midst Of general speech
making and indiscriminate attacks upon
cold collation. spread in the new building
corner Of Gravier street and Varieties
Theatre alley. The leading staple is put
down as being in good request. The run
of transactions are in favor of factors. but
whether this indicates an increased price
within the coming week must be LETT to the
seers in cotton, of which there are a large
class now in the lists. Factors, as a rule.
felt inclined to ask a slight advance, not to
sell at all, expecting a greater price, or
failed to offer altogether, or else postponed
it owing to the news through New York
unquestionably in their favor. At the
opening the inquiry was Indifferent inter-
mittent. Soon, however, the advices came
of quarter of a farthing rise in Liverpool,
when the demand changed on the impulse
into active, but was met by shyness on
the part of factors, who, weighing in the
balance this intelligence, were, though un-
decided and irresolute, Of the opinion that
it would pay to wait. The disposition of
factors resulted in falling off of sales,
which fell short Of Saturdays figures.
Gold opened yesterday at lIlss 0lll%
and sales were made at a price of the
greater number located between these
figures. At the Board Of Brokers' gold
closed at lll's, beng offered at 1llA with
out sales made. Foreign exchange is go in

three or four libraries that are open to the

miserably supplied. Without the means
to purchase works of the latest and
highest interest, they merely deserve the
name OF Libraries, because they contain

STILL IN THE BONDS OF s1r.

There is vast room for improvement in
the Democratic party in New York yet.
The success of Jimmy O'Brien and
Michael Norton is not such q cleaning
out of bad men as to allow their friends
to be canonized at once. O'Brien was a
friend of Tweed and Sweeney as long as
he could have his own way, and when the
Tammany ring could no longer find places
for his friends, then O'B.ien became a re-
former. Michael Norton was of the same
sort of antecedents, having preyed upon
Tammany until the last, and then only
joined the reform party fresh from his re-
past with Tweed. Sheriff Brennan. too.
is preparing to become a reformer, now
that Tweed has fallen. These men are all
frauds. They are as dishonest as Tweed
OF Sweeney either, and they are much
more detestable, not even having the COM
mon decency to hide the faults of their
friends, committed, perhaps, at their in
stigation.
What redeeming feature is there about
O'Brien, that he should be put above
Tweed? What did Tweed ever do that
O'Brien did not abet? What did the ring
do that Norton, Brennan and O Bnen ever
denounced? And what help have they
given to the public in discovering the
frauds that have been unearthed? The
Democracy has only thrown over one bad
man to pick up another. It has discarded
Tweed to accept his partners. And that
It is not honest, let the vote that elected
Tom Field over Horatio Seymour be the
evidence. With its reform record in New
York, the Democratic party can not hope

he United States. It is only the swapping
IF one set Of broken down and unfaith-
ul animals for another. O'Brien for Tweed
s no material gain to anybody but
1'Brien.

TANGLED DIPLOMACY.

Germany and France have got their
red tape in very hard knot, from which
o solution appears to be difficult. Per-
haps the best way to state the case is to
present two paragraphs that are now on
their way round the world. The first
shows the French difficulty, as follows:
Forty million of francs, $4,000, 900, have
to be paid by France every week toward
the war indemnity to Prussia. This drain,
amounting to s4l6,OOO,0OO per year, is a
neavy one tor country even Of such re-
may be borrowed, and indeed the peoDle
nave subscribed freely, not to say enthu
sMHas.tlcally, to the loans put out by the
liners government. The difficulty is that
tne amounts have to be paid in COIN There

circulation in France, but this continued

body would give change for Bank of
France note except at large nreminm for
the coin. Tradesmen. who were offered
: fifty franc notes in payment Of purchases
of thirty and thirty five francs, preferred +"
keep their goods rather than give the silver
change. It is probable that the government
will resort to the issue Of fractional c"r'
rency, which, it is expected, will lead to an
immediate rise in the prices of all com
mOdities.
The second gives the German cause of
trouble.
The Inconvenience of the large increase of
French five franc pieces in circulation in Ger
many has not yet abated. The Frankfort
Bank, which tried to facilitate matters, has

no further. All public departments are
stocked with them, and while forcing them
upon the public decline to receive them
back again.

tionary measure, we suppose, against de-

to be compelled to receive long, heavy

Yet, in this amiable little contest be-

found easier to hide away and dispose of
