The New York Observer has the fol.
lowing sensible remarks In relation to
fashionable resorts:
"Cries of distress come from many
Of tho watering places because 20 few
come to enjoy tho preparations made.
Some large hotels threaten to close in
August q the expense Of keeping mn
the Establishment far exceeds the re-.
coipts. The reasons for this falling of
of numbers are the following:
. !. The rush to Europe this year has
been In excess Of any former year.
Five or six thousand families Of the
class usually resorting to the fashion.
able watering places, hAve gone over
the sec.
2. The prices Of board and the taxes
imposed on visitors at these resorts
have become SO heavy that even rich
people refuse to submit to them. Serv-
ants have become robbers. Landlords
are extortioners, and none but the Ok.
travagant or those SO rich that they do
not care how much II costs, can afford
to pay the demands which many hous.
ca now make, In one or another shape,
of their guests.
3. And In connection with this last
reason, it may be said that Thousands
Of business men did not make money
last year az they did before they are
disposed to be more economical than
usual, and they seek more retired,
more healthy, but less fashionable 70.
sorts. #@..e+
The fact is simply this, that extrav.
agance ia its own cure. High prices
frighten people away, and paying high
prices makes people poor. Modera-
ton in living is consistent with trne
wisdom and patriotism, while the re.
verse is foolish and ruinous.

Reading rs. Pennsylvania, in which
the following points are made:
First The transportationof freights, or
o. the subjects Of commerce, ia constitu.
titnal part OF commerce itself.
second--A tax upon freight transported
from State to State. is regulation of com.
1nerce among the Statea.
Ttird-- Whenever the subjects, in re gard
to which power r. regulate commerce is
assorted, are in their nature national, or ad-
nit ofene uniform system, or plan Of regnla.
ton. they are exclusivefs within tho ,egu-
'ating control of Congress.
Fourth Transportation d passengers or
Of merchandise through q State. or from one
State to another, is Of this nature.
fitth--Heuce a statute Of State imposing
. tax upon freight, taken mp within the
State and carried out Of it, or taken up
without State and brought within it, IS
repugHant 10 that provision Of the Consti-
husioa Of the United States which ordains
that 'Eonercss shall have power to regulate
Commerce with foreign nations and among
