SToCRs-The railway and miscellaneous
speculation was generally weak and lower
to-day, although At the close there was q
recovery from the lowest point. The great.
est decline was In Panama, which dropped
8 per cent, from 14O TO 1856, but rallied to
1877 at the close. The Eric movement, as
usual Of late, was the great feature Of the
market, This stock opened atl9 tIalON and
afterwards advanced TO 201S, but later In
the day became very weak and declined
to IS, with closing business at 1SN, This
fresh decline was OCCaSiohcd by reports
that impediments stood In the way Of the
Delaware, Lackawanna 4 Western and the
Delaware 4 Hudson Canal Company max
lug loan on Erie coal lands; then followed
runorS Of a receiver and pressure to sell
stock. The next greatest decline was In
Pacific Mail and Western Union, the former
falling from SIX to S6IG and the latter from
IN TO 75T. At tho close Pacific Mail re.
covered to SG% and Western Union to76A,
The decline in Western Union was stimu,
lated for time by the failure Of The loan.
The effect Of this was not lasting, as II was
believed that the company could fund it

The Effect OF Cheap Whisky on q
Democratic Editor.

The Effect OF Cheap whisky on .
Democratic Editor.
The able editor Of the Petersburg
Grant county, Examiner is moved 4
make the following remark in the las
issue Of his paper;
aThere must be some Significance in th'
fact that the Wheeling INTELLIdENCRI
avoids editorial comment on the recen
whisky frauds"
There II just one little trouble abOu
this little paragraph and that is that Il
happens not to be the truth. The whisky
seizures referred to were made on Mon
day, the 10th of this month, aud Oh
Wednesday, the 18th, we ventured to
offer some editorial comment" thereon
We think perhaps We EeFd rather
precipitate In thus following up The
seizures so promptly with an expression
Of our qualification. Indeed we are moi
sure now that the seizures themselves
we're not mistake. The flow OF cheap
whisky has been stopped thereby, and
along with II, We fear the rapid aud
hitherto satisfactory mortality Of Demo-
cratic editors, We think for instance,
that the stock Of cheap whisky still on
hand in the Examiner Office Is doing liz
work very OfIeCtualIy on the brain Of the
editor. Witness hiS comments on these
very gWhiaky seizures in his last issue ;
WHISKY FRA Ups: What does The
sensation amount tor This periodical
seizure Of illicit distilleries, making bugle
Of seeming example, Is really farce.
Heavy penalties are paid--mostly In
money Somebody 10 Office gets rich, and
the old machine wags on. II does seem
singular that agriculture and the trades
are taxed continually, while the whisky
temple gets of with on occasional rap.
II our people would speak against
operpus taxation, with the same spirit
that the press canyasseB the latg sei1l res,
q somewhat big mountain might DO re.
moved from the grOaning core Of AmeFl-
can subsistence"
The above paragraph shows what cheap
whisky will do for a Democratic editor
povided the supply can be kept up until
he Is full. We think about another
