Discussing the question of cor
poreal punishment in the public
schools, the New York Herald says
"The average boy has generous
instincts, which only need to be
properly appealed to in order to
make a warm response. If such
IN appeal cannot be made the fault
is in the teachers, who might whip
till eternity without doing any real
good"

No man is eligible to Office under

Female Suffrage.

Governor Campbell, of Wyoming,
in his message to the Legislature
OF that State gives unqualified tes-
timony in favor of the practical
workings Of female suffrage He
says: 1.-TWO years more OF observa
ton of the practical working Of the
system have only served to deepen
my conviction that what we IN this
Territory have done, has been we'll
done, and our system of impartial
suffrage is an unqualified success. -

says Of the Message: sit is con

discussions. It is specially strong

repeal of the salary increase will
not satisfy the people of the nation.
If members cannot screw their
courage up to the sticking point
and make clear work of it, they
may as we'll, for their own interest
and we now merely address those
who have no higher motive in their
action-they may as well, we say,
let the Ubiquitous act stand, and
pocket tho procecds.-Cin. Times.

The New York Chamber of Com
merce, after lengthy debate, voted
down proposition to ask Congress to
pass measure for the resumption of
specie payment by the Government.
This is sensible action, and will be
endorsed by every intelligent man in
the country. To talk of passing law
for resuming what is called specie
payment" is the wild vagary of fnan-

not to, understand an inevitable result
Of an attempt of such a thing.-Ind.

The New York Evening Post
very truly says that "what bus
mess men want from Congress
is, such a revision of our banking

when the crops are moveing, and
contracting when they are small,
as during the summer"

OD TIC JtH quite an 1nlmateQ Oe-
bate sprang up in the lower House of
Congress, pro and con, on the bill for
the repeal Of the increase of salary,
passed at the last session.
Mr.. Lawrence, of Ohio, made a
speech in favor of the repeal, because
it was demanded by the people, whose
agents the members of Congress were.
Mr.. Wilson, of Indiana, said it was
not his purpose to argue against the
repeal of the salary bill, nor to argue
that the salary was not fixed too high;
but he desired to show that there was
nothing in that action unworthy or
dishonest; that a man might vote for
it and still be pure in integrity and
conscience as any one of all the multi
tude of his detractOrs. He repeated
to Mr.. Lawrence the question whether
he has not drawn back pay in 1866.
Mr.. Lawrence replied that every
member of that Congress, except the
members from West Virginia, had
taken the pay fixed by the act of 1866.
He condemned the salary act of March
3, 1873, not SO much because of the
back pay as because both the back
pay and front pay were too high.
Mr.. Wilson, Of Indiana, reminded
Mr.. Lawrence that he had condemned
it while ago because it was back
pay.
Mr.. Lawrencc-Because it was back
pay too much in amount. ILaugh-

Cost Of wnr for Cuba.

A special from Washington says
that it is the opinion of experts that
the army of occupation for Cuba
would have to be about 90, 900 men;
and that it would cost in equipments
and transportation to and On the
Island, S150,00o,000 per annum,

but has experienced no important
change from our previous quotations.
The receipts are not equal to the con-
sumptive wants Of distillers, and there
is some restriction of manufacturing,
but to no great extent, as the arrivals
are abont equally distributed, and
Operations are checked only for three

SPIRITS TURPENTINE - There
has been some movement in the mar
ket this week, but the receipts were
light and business was restricted for
this cause and also by the disposition
OF receivers to sell for cash, which, IN
the present state of finances, it was
hard to do. This article is coming
forward very slowly, but this is ocea-
stoned, doubtless, by the financial dis
turbances, as there is some accumula-
ton Of stock i'll the country. The
market ruled very steady Friday and
Saturday at 3S cents, with some move
ment daily at these figures. Monday
evening, however, there was some i'm
provement of feeling displayed, and
an advance Of ! cent was gained.
Tuesday morning the market opened
quiet and steady at 3Sl cents, but soon
afterwards advanced to 80 cents, and
at noon, at the Exchange" again adj
vanced tn 40 cents. The firmness con
tinued Wednesday morning, and
further advance Ct cent was OBJ
tanned. To-day Thursday at the
close Of our report, the market is
quoted steady at 40! cents. 'Fhe re-
ceipts for the week, 1908 casks, against
l, 397 casks for last week, show an i'll
crease of 6I2 casks. The exports for
the week, 4,1l9 casks, against 1,597
casks for last week, show an increase
of 1922 casks. The stock i'll market
is S,G1S casks, against 10, 4Si casks for

RO5IN-N Notwithstanding the con-
tinucd stringency OF money and the
dizziness which has prevailed the mar
ket remains about as last quoted and
may he called fairly steady at the mo-
ment. In the absence Of any specula-
tive demand there was not SO much
forward delivery were limited and few.
There was an improved enquiry for
spot resins, but even for this there WAS
no great demand, and the limited en-
quiry prevailing was restricted by the
small stock III first hands. The market
is substantially more favorabIv situa-
ted than at our last writing and the
future outlook IS more encouraging.
In the first place, the monetary trOUb-
les have caused a considerable decline
Of receipts and there has during the
crisis been 10 week when exports were
not large. Tie stock is much re-
duccd and with Il number of vessels
that there will for. the future be a
steady decline of stock. At the tEx-
change there was a large attendance
daily, and there was more trading
done on the floor than for several
weeks past. The special features of
the market and the movement Of the
week as reviewed is, as follows : Fri
day, Strained opened dull and there
was 81 feeling of distrust exhibited by
buyers, and there was no sales
reported. Saturday the dizziness
continued, which lesu ed i'll a decline
of cents on Strained with sales of
500 bbls. delivered, at s. 80. There
were sales also this day of 237 bbls.
No. , at s. 35. Saturday there was
some Improvement of feeling but DO
advances were gained. The sales were
500 bbls. Strained, delivered, at s. 80
and 700 bbls. p. n. Z. Tuesday the
market was quiet with sales of $50 bbls
Strained at s. 81. Wednesday the
views of buyers and sellers were apart
and there were no transactions re-
ported. To-day, at the close of our
writing, Strained is quoted steady Mt
81 90 y Dbl.
No. 2-There was only very light
enquiry for this grade during the week

were reported of small lot on Satur-
day at figures fair average above

GRAiN-There is nothing new tic
veloped itself i'll any branch of the
Grain trade of the week, and the mar
kct for the most part IS not 4llotably
changed. CoEN-n Is been IN fair de-
maud with Il liberal export movement,
and Il good consumptiye demand, hut
beyond the usual channels trade, there
wei G no features. There were 20 cargo
arrivals and consequently We arc with
out transactions; to form an opinion as
to the correct state OF the market but
from the best information gained, we
quote cargOes iirmer ut so to 50 cents
r bushcl as per quality. No new corn
has arrived as yet, but there are Indl-
cations OF IN early arrival OF the new
grain and it is thought until this begins
to come III, that there Will be no deci-
ded alteration Ill the quotations OF the
market. The receipts from northern
ports continue ample to meet the de-
mands and there is little scarity of sup
ply. Quotations from store are not
materially chang ID, but there is
stronger feeling, and small orders
would probably be filed at a slight
advance. The receipts for the week
IL, 800 bushels against II. 435 bushels
for last week show an increase OF l $50
bushels and from all sources were as
follows From Philadelphia, G,1o0
bushels from New York, 5000 bush
els from Baltimore, 1900 bushels !;
| per schr. Ben from New York $500
bushels; and by Viii. & Weldon rail
road 300 bushels. Dealers are selling
from store at 92B @95 cents for yellow,
| mixed and white IN ealing per busLel,
highest figures including sacks. Oars
Are also quoted Il friction higher in
the absence of receipts and q slight
falling off of stock. The demand is
principally local and few orders are
being received from the country.
Dealers are selling from store at 67I@
70. cents per brshel, sacks included.
-PEAs-There is no stock of peas
and very light receipts have induced q
firmer feeling. We quote nominally
as follows: Cow 81 60, Clay 81 600
81 65, and White 81 75@S1 So e
bushel. --RICE-The market is well
supplied and the demand is confined
