THE GRAIN TRADE
continues to excite especial attention.
The fact is that New York ought to lose
it tor she has never done anything to
foster it. All the grain that comes to
this city is handled by hand-is has to be
carted from the depot to the vessels and
the cost OF transfer almost eats it up. A
movement is on foot to build tracks by
the water-slde-to erect elevators as in
the Lake Cities, so that the grain can be
taken out Of the cars and loaded into
vessels at slight cost. This is all that can
possibly save the trade, and this will not
do it unless the Erie Canal is enlarged
and the exhorbitant tolls thereon lessen

Baltimore all have superior facilities and
they are taking the trade. Why don't

A RESOLUTION WAS adopted by The
Wisconsin Asse mbly yesterday, instruct
ing the Observation-Disclosures to exclude alt
ioafers from the chamber. 1t is under
stood that the officer charged with this
duty is sadly puzzled to know by what
standard he is to go. Shall he take the
word of the parties themselves. or of
some one else? And if the latter. will
there not be danger Of breaking a quo
rum? The Assembly should be more
explicit. Ocean.

The d~ampness of the atmosphere may be mea-
sured by means Of two thermometers, read off
imultaneously,-th one being an ordinary one,
and the Other having the bulb surrounded by a
wet piece of cloth, from wlnh the water is CON
stantly evaporating. The drier the atmosphere,
the more water will evaporate and the lower the
thermometer will stand. The greater, therefore,
the difference between the simultaneous stand of
the two thermometers, the drier is the atmosphere

An Honest Body or Public Men.

WASHINGTON, d. c., May Icon
gress has made rapid progress with
its real work within the past ten days, and
the record of this first session will soon be
completed. First, and more important
than all, it can be said of the Forty third
Congress that it well deserves the name of
on honest body. 1t has thrust all manner
of schemes and jobs aside more persistent
ly and etfectually than any Congress since
the war. The usual lobby has been out OF
employment, and in a starving condition
from first to last. There has been no such
stagnation in the business of robbing the
Treasury for man years. And this general
statement of the case should be remem-
bered everywhere to the credit of the
body. There have been no land grants
the Indian bill, so often a bill of abomina.
tions, has been more closely scrutinized
than ever before; the general appropria-
ton bills have been kept clearer than evel
of the extensive schemes so frequently
concealed under provisos; the leaks in de-
partment expenditures have been greatly
reduced, and, in word, an earnest attempt
toward economy and reform has been
made Most of this good work accom-
plished is House work, but so. far as the
Senate is concerned its measures have beer
as free from jobbery as those of the House
and as yet there have been no attempts to
the appropriation bills.-SpeciaL Cor. Gin

see, whose concerts in New York q wear
or two since were so satisfactory, have Just
returned from Europe, where their per
formances, as our readers already know,
have been very successful, and have ADDED
$4,000 TO the building fund of Jubilee
Hall, now erecting at Nashville. Several
thousand dollars were contributed by their
friends abroad in aid of the library and
apparatus fund of the University.
The farewell concert of the Jubilee
Singers in London was given at Exeter
Hall, March 81. The Earl of Shaftesbury
was present and during the evening adj
dressed the audience. In the course of his
speech he said:
'"There is a noble self.denial and pa
triotism exhibited by these young people
who were recently grovelling in slavery,
unfit to be accounted members of the
human race. See how the moment the
pressure was removed they have come
forth and have been the means not only of
exalting themselves, but all their brethren
who have been so long trodden down in the
lowest depths of human misery. 1t is a
glorious manifestation of moral virtue and
will teach us, L hope, henceforward to
know that there is no distinction of heart,
although there may be distinction OF
color, and that God has made of one blood
all the nations of the whole world. l as
sumo then that may address these young
people, and say to them on your behalf,
and on behalf of the whole kingdom OF
England that our affection and respect will
follow them wherever they go through all
| the period of time, and pray Almighty
God that we may all join them in that
blessed eternity, the hope of which sus-
tanned them in all their sorrows and all
their despair. They come before you and
ask your sympathy, you give it, and Eng

the down-trodden and afflicted members o.

crop of lard this year is many millions of

some of the contracts expiring daily. The
Western dealers are "long " of the greater

to be heavily short." The price has
steadily advanced from 81 to liz cents per
pound for immediate delivery. This ad-
vance has seriously crippled some of the

were reported to have failed. No formal
announcement of any failure has yet been
made, but 1t is well known that some of
