Seth Green, the noted fish culturist and
sportsmen, says the most effective hook in
Ay fishing is made from a strong needle,
annealed, bent and tempered, and conse-
quently without a barb. He asserts that
only in this way can a really sharp hook
be obtained, that the tension Of the rod is
amply sufficient TO keep such hook in its
place, and that very gentle stroke will fix
the keen point in the mouth Of the fish.

Said one of the Na!ick people the other
day, an old nelghbor of Henry Wilson's in
his shoe pegging days: "They say Mr..
Wilson's brain weighed forty-nine ounces
if they had weighed his heart they would
have found 1t weighed ton" That was
the man exactly.

THE BALTIMORE CITY ELECTION, T0-h0R
ROW

The election for Mayor and other mnnicipal
officers takes place in Baltimore tomorrow, and
will be, undoubtedly, very warmly contested.
The opposing candidates are on the Reform and
Democratic tickets. the former being supported
by citizens irrespective OF party, and the latter
by portion of the Democrats. Exactly TO what
extent the Democratic vote will be divided is I'M
certain, and will probably remain so, until the
ballots are actually counted. and to this uncer-
tainty is due the deep interest and scarcely sup
pressed excitement attending the election. The
Democratic vote has heretofore had maj ajority
IN Baltimore Of from ten Thousand upward, and
it now remains to be seen whether enough OF il
has gone into the Reform movement, joining
with the Republicans, 10 leave the Ring re-
nainder i'll n minority.
The result of the vote. to-morrow,is further oil
interest and Importance on account Of the very
great influence it must have on the State elect
ion, which takes place next Tuesday. In fact
the result in the State depends almost entirely
upon the verdict now to be uttered by Balti-
more A large majority for Reform, or large
majority for the Democratic ticket will be CON
elusive for the whole State, though a small ma
jonty either way will still give the other side
room for hope. 1t is reasonable to look for
considerable Reform majority outside OF the
city, 30 that il tile Democratic city candidate,
should succeed, tomorrow, bya narrow msrgiI
only, it is probable that their State ticket msl
be defeated.

ANYTHING at all tU Uc learned rom eN-
Derience il is an established fact, that
after Il commercial crisis has brought
to light a vast amount of financial
rOtteHness, resulting in nCavy losses to
those who have placed their capital in
the hands of others for employment,
considerable time is required to regain
the state of confidence which formerly
existed. Ia proportion n credit has
been abused viii the recovery be slow.
During the last du5 hundred years
business among Eugiish-speaki1 Z ia
tionS has been conducted with an
amount of assistance from credit which
it is scarcely possible to conceive, and
which has no parallel in any other age
or race. Since the beginning of 1873
it has been computed that in the Uni
ted States interest has ceased to be
paid on railroad mortgages alone TO
the par value of $500, ,O31, ,GJJ. Yet this
is but single one OF the various chan
nels in which credit flows. Besides
this there is the Public Debt, the debts
of States, COUNTIES, towns, and cities,
the sums owed To and by the banks
and savings banks. the life and fire
insurance companies, and finally the
entire fabric of commercial ana VTi-
vate credit. 1t is obviously impOsSi-
ble for any one man, or set Of men, to
have any Knowledge of more than a
very small part of this great mass Of
credit. The individuals are not Hu-
merous VINO really know, until it $
too late for their knowledge To be Of
any use, whether other peoples bu>i-
ness is sound or unsouud. Hence the
examples in which the history OF trade

credit for dozen or score of years
after their capital had been lost -
Hence, too. the unreaSouiug cuuH-
dence which prevails at sometimes
throughout the commercial world and
the equally irrational distrust which
Is epidemic at others. Without going
into abstract questions on the one side,
or endeavoring TO pTy into the details
Of private affairs on the other, we can
safely say that if credit can be protect
