At present the market may be pronounced
active with tendency to become better
than ever. 1t appears the only business
done was with an export basis, and hence
liable to be touched by whispers that
come from across the water.
The -four market wears the same fea-
lures, the higher extras being easily sold
Theastook on hand is not sufficient to
create any stir. Sales yesterday en-
braced the choice and treble extra.
There is some commotion among pro-
duce merchants about freights by river,
and an opinion is gaining ground that
they are decidedly too high, so crowding
out all except the most urgent demands.
No system of barges or flats, nothing in
terferes to make freights reasonable, but
everything in the way of transportation is
up to the highest notch, and no syren
songs are going to bring them down
nothing but the interest of steamboats, and
barge owners

gentlemen report that he used; and they
further inform us that his tone was sin
guiarly significant. He gave them the
impression that he meant the President or
the War Department. (Which would be the
same thing), by the words the very
highest authority" Neither of the gen
tlemen composing the committee.
nor any member of the State Con-
vention, wished to array himself
in antagonism with an express order
of the President or the War Department
in the premises. And Mr.. Packard was
well aware Of this feeling, and no doubt
had it full in his mind when ne made use
of the words. He either intended to be
ambiguous or untruthful; and when he
perceived that the committee misunder-
stood the source from whence he claimed
to derive his authority, he neglected to
correct the erroneous Interpretation.
We can see no excuse for the conduct
of the marshal in the alleged conversation
he had with General West at two o'clock
on the afternoon of the eighth, nor in the
statement made by Superintendent Bad
ger since the conversation. For both
these gentlemen were speaking after the
ubiquitous programme of the federal Off
cfals had been developed to them. And
Mr.. Badger-if he made use of the Ian
guage imputed to him at all, which we
neither admit nor deny-said what he did
after the fraud had been fully consum-
mated.
The Republican State Convention
cheerfully bowed to the authority Of the
United States troops. One soldier would
have been as effective as a regiment; but
whether they would have recognized the
right of crowd Of ignorant, undisci-
plined deputy marshals, specially selected
for their partisan bias to perform police
duty, is another question. One of these
miscreants is charged with having pre-
scented pistol at the Governor when he
was leaving the Customhouse. And as
the whole force of deputies was little else
than an armed mob of ignoramuses, it
would have been no more than proper
precaution to have the police or some re-
sponsible force on hand to keep them
from killing each other.
On the whole, we think Mr.. Packard
has failed to make his case look any better
by his dispatch to the Tribune.

ON CARONDELET STREET.

In the Levee stock, an unmistakable
back-down took place yesterday. The
stock is no longer defiant 1t required
some coaxing even to get nine and hall
| for it, and before the running out of bank
| hours, offerings at nine and quarter
were made, and no takers. Lugubrious
whispers arose about the contract made
between the commission and the railroad
men; it was even said by the boldest OF
those who had been interested, that, fol-
his part, he did not believe there was any
contract at all; that it was only diver.
sion in favor of those mot few who
wanted to unload. There is no authentic
report, as yet, about this contract, no de-
tailed statement. Every one is in the
dark; the franchises afforded by the
Levee bill; the power of levying taxation,
and of getting a million bonds. Nothing
now is thought of but the contract, and
there is suspicion that this is invalid.
The stock was going down fast yesterday,
and will be lower to-day. 1t stood at last
accounts at nine and quarter.
Pneumatic also threatens to ego glim-
mering." 1t is now quoted at So to "a,
the latter figure being hard to get. Three
hundred shares We're sold yesterday at So,
resold at So 60, and three lots, in, all
amounting to 292 shares, sold at 81. This
was about all the business done in the
stock. Of course, the tanks, as those
reservoirs of compressed air are called
have again "busted, and unless the com
pany looks sharp the same fate is in store
for it.
Gold is remarkably steady in New York
at 112ss. Here, there was not a breath of
activity in any of the transactions.
City appropriation certificates are now
in active, and even brisk demand. They
were quoted yesterday at 81, having risen
to this from 81, at which figure they stood
for few days. The June having all been
paid, July is the next month on which the
administrators will begin to pay, and this
may account for the brisk demand there
is for this class of securities.
Slaughterhouse, sixty-fve shares of it
sold yesterday at twenty-five and quar-
ter, and the number of bidders who are
willing to give twenty-five for it at any
time are on the increase. In this connec-
ton, it may as well be said that the iti-
cation in which the company seems to be
plunged doesn't seem to do the stock any
good.
There is nothing doing. Such is the
universal complaint. Yet the business of
money getting and money lending ION
good collaterals) continues fair. 1t APP
pears sometimes, however, as if. we all
starved for six months in the year for the
privilege of living out the remainder.

ton than it has been for some time.

As a growing party the Republican
seems to be thriving very well in Ken
lucky. In 1868 there were only 80, 566
Republican votes cast in that State; in
1870 there were 41,341; while in 1871,
with quite number of counties to hear
from, Harlan, the Republican candidate
for governor, counts up his vote at Sc, 229.
At this rate of increase we may safely set
Kentucky down as safe for the Republican
candidate next year.

SENTENCE OF CONDEMNATION,


Marshal Packard appealed to foreign
tribune for a<hearing in the matter of
using United States troops against the
Republican convention in this city, and
the matter being submitted on an er pdrte
hearing, his own tribunal has condemned
him on his own showing. Read what the
New York Tribune says, in commenting
upon the card which Marshal Packard
telegraphed in his own defense, and which
we publish in full in another column:
Whatever else may be said or left unsaid
about the unwisesand needless split in the
Republican party of Louisiana, there is one
thing which ought not to escape the instant
and emphatic condemnation of every Repub-
hcan, no matter what his views about the
personal aspect of the quarrel. The use of
the United States Courtroom in the Custom
house, as the place for holding the conven-
ton of one Of the factions, and the use of
United States troops to exclude from it per-
sons claiming to be delegates, or any per
sons, are things so shamelessly indecent
that we repudiated the ascription of their
origin to President Grant as an unwarranta-
BILE and incredible SANDER. If Governor
Warmoth's wing of the party had been far
less deserving than it is, this action of its
opponents would have given it the advan-
tage in the sympathy of the party at large.
And we do not see that Marshal Packards
card, published in the Tribune to-day, helps
the case of the anti-Warmoth wing in the
least. The marshal says that the President
was not responsible for ordering United
States troops out for the protection of the
convention; we never believed he was,
though Mr.. Packard was reported to have
said SO. But while the marshal and the col
lector take the responsibility of ordering the
State Republican Convention into the Gus
an excuse to call out the military, we do not
see that any sufficient palliation for their
offensive conduct has been given.

No popular fallacy, says the New York
Mail, is more deeply rooted than that oys-
tiers are unwholesome at certain periods,
and that they should only be eaten during
those months whose names. contain the let
ter r. Even medical men often advise peo-.
pie not to take them at that time, yet many
people eat them with sglearty relish, and
without the least discomfort, all the year
round. Good oysters are as good now as at
any time, though bad ones are likely to be
: more common.
