nance requiring saloons to close at II
o'clock pm.
There we're ffty.six arrivals and sew
enty-seven departures Of lake vessels
here yesterday, although the straits Of
Mackanaw are not yet open.
In all departments { the money mar
ket yesterday the degree of animation
exhibited was much better than is usual
" witnessed on Monday, and as the
prospects are now favorable for the early
opening of the straits, and also the regu-
lar shipping season in grain and pro-
duce, the outlook promises very busy
week in both financial and commercial
circles. Money is just now stringent,
though the banks continue to meet quite
freely all the calls of their regular Gus
toners, and the condition of Affairs is
about as satisfactory as could be ex-
pected. Grain men, as is customary at
this season, are the principal borrowers,
yet the demand for funds yesterday was
quite general, and the discount market
was well supplied with all kinds of
paper. Interest rates continue firm at
10 q cent. z annum, at the regular
places, and lll@l2 q cent. on the
street.

HARpERs' WEEKLY.

For downright lying and cool, villain
Gus SANDER which could only come from
malicious hearts, give us Harpers'
Weekly. It never lowers its tone or
ceases to heap curses upon the people
of the South. Its conductors are as red
hosAs they were in 1861, and exert their
influence to keep alive the fires Of sec
tional hate upon which they fed and
grew lurid with fendish passions all
during the war. Every number teens
with vituperation and SANDER. One oil
the proprietors. it is said, was down
South Just before the war, When excite
ment ran high, and was arrested and
held for a short time. he was released
without injury, but be never forgave the
minute.men or the vigilance committee
for not giving him coat of tar and
feathers to wear back North as an evil
dence of Southern barbarism. They re-
doubled their efforts through their jour
nal of Civilization and otherwise to fire
the Northern heart, and have been at 1t
ever since, until they have proved them
selves worthy kinsmen of the blood
thirsty desperadoes of the same name
who infested the country in the early
days of Kentucky and Tennessee, and
for their many fearful crimes we're
hunted down like wild beasts and
killed at bay. The New York Harpers
thirst for blood, and enjey supreme de-
light when it flows freely in some re-
mote section. None Of the family we're
ever known to take any personal risks
in war or peace. They do the footing
others the fighting for them. The last
number shows q cowardly fear that Ten
nessee and other Southern States will
attract few immigrants. 1t says: mo
Germaa colony, no Scandinavian VII
lagc springs up on the banks Of the Ten
nessee or in the highlands OF Northern
Alabama. The emigrant shuns the
fated territory. The great army Of labor,
warned even in Europe of its dangers,
passes afar of on the borders of the
uHprosperous region" In this strain
the Weekly goes on to recount the dan
gers Of death and Ku-Klux, that drive
back Northern emigrants, capital
and brains. The picture drawn is as
untrue as it is malicious, but it shows
how Harper would like for things to ap-
pear. Except in Louisiana, where dis
turbances have been created by deeper
ate political adventures sent down to
civilize the South by holding all the
Offices, Northern man is as safe in
person and property in the late slave
States as ir any State North or West
Misrepresentation has kept some people
away who might have settled among us,
but the tide has set in this way, and all
Harpers efforts will be futile to turn it
back.

The Indian Commissioners met again
last night at the Fifth Avenue Hotel.
They thought the most important field
was among the Sioux, who number about
thirty-fve thousand. No trouble is an.
ticipated with those who visited Wash

thousand Northern Sioux who have
never come into contact with Govern.
ment agents. and should no satisfactory
arrangements be made with them the
Northern Pacific Railroad Commission
ers think there is danger Of Spotted

murder of some chiefs three months
ago. There is also danger that a new
expedition may be fitted out for the
opening up Of Black river and the Pow
der Hill country, which would lead to a
rising Of the Indians Of those districts.

no trouble with the Klamaths and Jnakes
or other tribes in the neighborhood Of

The chief funding organ Of the State,
the Nashville Union and American, has
several times thrown out bread insinu-
alton that there is railroad ring in
Memphis interested in the depreciation
of State bonds. In reply to this it is
sufficient to refer TO the report of the
late Comptroller Pennebaker, who was
an earnest advocate Of funding lsee
page AZ BE says: Mistaken, not TO
say unwise, legislation made it to the
interest of railroad corporations to de-
press the price of her (the state) bonds,
throw obstacles in the way Of any pro-
vision for payment, and in every way
that was possible depreciate the credit OF
the State. The railroads were virtually
the enemies of State credit and honor,
necessarily made so through self inter
est; for the lower the price OF State
bonds the more easily the railroad COM
panies could discharge their indebted
ness to the State. This State Of things
has noe happily ended, and rings are
impotent." Railroad rings he meant,
of course. for that was before the fund
ing scheme was developed. 1t is clear
that any corporation or person likely to
stand in need of bonds would have
bought enough to answer their purposes
while prices were low.
