The Coffee SuppIy-No Reduction OF
Price Anticipated.
(From the Phil. Rccord.)

(FrOm the Phil Record.)
1t does not seem likely that the abroga.
ton Of the duty on coffee will be followed
by reduction Of the price to the con,
sumner, but, on the contrary, 1t now looks
as II the price would be advanced more
than the reduction amounts to. This ad.
vance Is predicated on alleged light SUP.
plies, which, II 1t proves successful IN our
markets, will no doubt be followed by a
corresponding rise in Rio de Janeiro and
other producing markets. From a cir.
cuar Of Messrs. Frederick Huth & Co i,
London, under date Of the Goth ult, we
learn that under a confirmation of the
previous reports Of short crops in the
Brazils, Java and Ceylon, tho Dutch auc.
ton, which attracted the general atten.
ton Oi tho trade, was attended with much
animation and resulted in higher prices
than had been expected. This has, Of
course, had Its influence in other foreign
markets, and spectators are using the ex.
citement to effect their own purposes.
Messrs. Huth & Co. calculate that we
shall want in the United States oil that
is now on hand at Rio do Janeiro, as well
as oil that may be expected there until the
end OF June, and warn their friends that
prices must be seriously affected should
there be a cessation during another three
months Of shipments from Brazil to
Europe. On the other hand, the only in.
tluence operating as yet on our markets
appears 10 be the repeal Of the duty, cot.
fees in bond being held higher, and the
best authorities reporting the market
buoyant and strong, the demand better
and holders Indifferent about selling.
That the actual reduction in price to the
consumer may be partly counteracted by
q general advance abroad from light sup.
plies would seem to be more than prob.

hearted Christian Bishop, a father and
friend Of the clergy.
Yet, in our grief, we recall with graft

We recall the entire harmony which
has existed between rs in the confiden.
tlal relations which the Shading Com

we recall with, equal satisfaction the
blessed harmony which prevails in the

from the wise, impartial and godly ad.
ministration OF his holy Office during
the eighteen years of his episoopate, and
we will endeavor to cherish his memory
by following Christ in truth and love.

owed him debt of gratitude which
they would repay with o vote. The
farmers will be for him, the workmen in

and the foreigners will be enthusiastic
for him. II the negroes don't vote for

they have no gratitude.

the bill OF charges was mailed to DR..

Judging from the following, which we

the emigration from the ''old country

ably ahead of that of any late years:
We regret to stnte that the tide of emi.

cially the Northern and Western parts
still! continues without the slightest
symptom of abatement This fearful
exodus. which almost seeks to depopu-
late this country. judging by the large
numbers bound for the Ear West" at
this early season OF the year. threatens
to assume vaster proportions this year
than any previons. The emigrants ars
principally of the rural class, the stout.
stalwart tillers OF tho soil-the very class
80 much sought after in other lands and
SO dreadfully missed in this. This exo-
dus, of course, has risen the hire in ths
labor market; in some instances, to use
q oalioquinl phrase, the services of la
hnrara are unable to I've procured for
"either love or mo ,ey," and this fact
becomes the more startling when it is
considered, owing to the recent wet
weather. spring operations are greatly
retarded. This almost total expectation
OF our peesantry again revives those
scenes in this town. which. though now
pretty familiar, are yet sufficient to rend
the stoutest heart-''The whispered
goodbye or the silent farewell" Where
will it end? we ask, in amazement.
