REMARKS ON BEEF CATTLE.
/ Under anticipations Of light arrivals the
wholesale market opened early in the week
with considerable activity, and slight
improvement in prices for the better but
before the close the large number arriv-
ing changed the face of affairs and the
market became dull, and medium and
common cattle fell off ! cent as compared
with last weeks prices. There were very
few of the top grade in market but second
grades in great abundance, and large
excess of the middles and of the COM
monest cattle. The middles and lower
grades fell off in price from lc to &c per
ID. A large number of these classes go
to the country and to the east at owners

Mr.. Morton's presidential election notions
seem 70 have impressed the committee on
elections. They have virtually DECIDED 70
recommend the cumbersome machinery OF
district voting, whose evils will be ten iold
more than the present electoral systems ~
will be remembered that Mr.. Morton's
scheme looked to the adoption OF Sixteenth
amendment, dining the method electing
the president. The aim of this new clause
is to make the election of president and vice
president more popular in character. Ana
t, this end it is proposed to divide the sew
eral states into electoral districts, each dis
trict 10 be entitled to one vote in determln-
i.g the choice for president, and In addition,
two electors are to be chosen by the State AT
large. The proposed amendment is only
half wav measure, as it neither abol lshes
the present electoral college, nor does it pro-
vide for the election of the president by
direct popular vote.

Some twenty five thousand mechanics OF
New York City are to-day without employ
ment with their families dragging out
precarieus and dependent existence at the
expense of somebody, instead of their own
earnings. The spring is opening and the
season OF labor ready to begin. There is
work to pe done, plenty of it to supply all,
and money to pay them. New York Is short
for dwellings. She has not half as many 's
Philadelphia. Her public highways meas
ure $50 miles against 800 in the city of the
centennial. The pressure for dwellings puts
power into the hands of landlords, raises
rents and turns the Iabcrer out of the city.
workmen refuse to lift finger until they
can have the pay of ten hours for the work
Of eight. The builders, bosses aud contract
ors have resolved to employ no men unless
on the ten hour basis after June /. They
will suspend entirely. There is the issue

When the liberal and the earnest impol-
itics are cast down and hopeless to escape
from the present disqualification of parties,
it will reinvlgorate their oI1oping hopes 70
Iccsll, the beginning of the abolition crusade
which had its rise under much more Suf =
vorable obstacles than the present incipience
xireform. The thought is brought to mind
by the assem- blage in Chicago, in June, of
the remnants If that abolition band,
who scattered the seed which bios
soned IN final regeneration o. the
nd from human slavery and ele-
ated us from barbarism to a civilized ma
ton. Although many OF the cons picuous
actors in that noble struggle are dead
there are enough rem aiming to render its cell
ebration an event of great interest, both to
the participants and TO the country at large. |
How swift is history at times, is Recalled
when we remember that in that city in 1860,
Abraham Lincoln received the nomination
for President from party which was then
only beginning to understand its duty on
the slavery question, and yet, to-day, in
1874, only few of the soldiers of its early |
warfare remain to meet together in congrat-
ulation and thanksgiving.

If the farmers are to be forbidden by the
party managers TO take action concerning
their own political destinies. of what pur-
pose is the banding together of the last two
wears? II the conduct of political affairs
had been pure and good and wholesome,
what need would there ever have been Of
the grangsrs and similar organized protests
against party domination? III the re-
publican party for instance, which
has been in power for the last
dozen or more years, Is so ca
pable of answering all the demands
OF the people, why have the necessities for
SUCK demands ever been permitted to come
ahour? Ii there were no law-breakers we
should need no laws. If the republican
nsrtv were a wholesome organization, the
farmers would never have been compelled
IN band themselves together to re-
sist the encroachments of the mo-
uopolfsts, whose exactions they have
aided in Congress and in council. Under
standing the uprising of tho reforming
farmers as a protest against itself, the reppb-
licau party hastens through its otiice-hoider'
and subsidized newspapers to warn the
farmers against political action. Processing
to know more about their needs tnal
the farmers themselves, they vocifer
ate the plea that the grange
are non POLITICAL and haye no right to tax

There are some drawbacks, after all, in
being a royal parsonage in search OF wife.
While weak mortals have been signing for
the glory and grandeur of Prince Alfred and
his imperial wife. the vulgar details have
been carried on by the great ministers, and,
as exposed, reveal a curious phase of mar
rying and giving in marriage. The full
text of the treaty between Her Maj
esty Queen Victoria ana the Emperor of
Russia, on the occasion of the marriage of
the Duke of Edinburgh and the Grand
Duchess Alexandrovna, reverses the bust
ness. The document was signed at st.
Petersburgb, on the I'D of January, and
ratified on the 29sb of the same month, and
was drawn up both in English and French.
There were eleven separate articles in the
trezty, which contain the following social,
polsical and religious stipulatons: First
Her Royal Highress Is to have the frisl and
unrestrained exercise Of the rsiiEious pro-
fessioa of the Gresk or srthodoX ohurch, and

The i'll tempered scolding of the organ
over the farmers revolt, reminds one very
strongly Of the vociterous cackliDg of an as
tonished hen when having brooded over a
batch of duck eggs, the little flock suddenly
take sail and enter the first pond that pre-
sents itself. In the clear waters of reform
the organ cannot paddle. Its brood
of farmer ducks having left it desolate,
and there will presently be nothing
left but rather foul nest. If the call of the
farmers can excite it to such frenzy of fury.
June, 5000 independent delegates assemble
in this city and promulgate the gospel of
reform? The wheezy reproaches and inco-
herent cackling OF the last day or two
will be limpid rills of English undefiled
in comparison. There is something touch
ing in this sudden surprise to the venerable
grind. It has been grooming on from day
to day. having eyes and seeing not, ears and
hearing not until the elimination of the
growing sentiment breaks upon it with a
dazing effect. Unable at first to realize the
source of the blow, it wildly charges that
the awful democrats have fired the
train-then remembering the terms of
the call, it asserts that, ''next to the
Changers, the Democrats were the maddest
men" then again forgetting, asserts that one
Gooding, who is not Granger, is the in
spring source of the farmers declaration.
There is serio-comic humor in the chaotic
charges, counter charges and contradictions
in the organ of the last two DAYS,
which absolutely excels the most Ole
aginous humor of Artemus Ward. First
the farmers who put forth the manifesto,
and they were all i'll favor of it save Mr..
Kingsbury and his assistant 'middiemen,"
as the organ calls them, in the Grange, were
doing it in the interest of the democratic state
committee. Then they were doing it in the
in the interest of the Sentinel, which swami
ed to be an organ ?)." Then in the interest
of one Gooding, who wanted to represent
the whole state of Indiana in congress! The
old organ is evidently losing
its senses, as well as its party, and next
we shall hear it charging. the farmer
upon the fragments of the liberal
republicans. Its vagaries are amusing
and it can not do better work than keep
them up. They supply the want of comic
paper admirably. A few more we'll put
guesses will add piquancy to the easy flow
Of humor and the public will relish the en-
