Representations of a portion of their own
PRESS the cotton growers of the United States
must attribute the loss Of some millions of
pounds sterling this season; for they have re-
ceived less per pound for crop of about
g. ESQ, 900 bales than they did for one Of 4, no.
O)O bales, whilst their own New England
spinners, and those of Europe, have SO far
reaned the benefit.
The Post says the small advance in cotton
since December last can only be accounted
for by the persistent efforts Of the "bear
rings of Liverpool and New York to hold the
market in check. That the advance will come,
but few in the cotton trade disbelieve. And
it concludes by saying that "taking into con-
sideration the very moderate stock now held
by the spinners in Europe, the deficiency in
the future supply, and the large "bear' sales
still open and uncovered, we can not see how
an early and important advance in prices can
be avoided

One of the most noticeable movements Of
the time is the rapid increase OF immigration
to California from the Ea tern States. Should
il co ntinue at the present rate Until October,
tits estimated that it will add as largely to
the population OF the State as YVES gained in
the memorable year 1850, under the ex.raor-
binary 1nducement Of the then newly discoy-
cred gold mines.
The movement by rail this year is unprece-
denied; this distinction being given to show
the increase, exclusive of Chinese immigra-
ton. Not only is the number Of arrivals by
rail larger, but the proportion Of those who
remain is also greater. In the first quarter of
1872 the net gam was only 20 per cent. In
1873 and 1874 the net gain was 80 and 100 per
cent respectively. Combining the statistics
for the quarter by both routes, we have the

COMMERCIAL MATTERS.
Important Supreme Court Decision

important Supreme OOMEt
The decision of the United States Supreme
Court at Washington in the case OF the ssate
of MARYLAND vs.. the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad. is one of very great interest and i'm.
portance. The court affrms the constitution.
aIity of the statute of Maryland requiring the
railroad com pany to pay into the State Treas
ury one-ffth OF the amount received from
passenga rs on the branch of the road between
Washington and Baltimore. The court says
that the State has q right to charge, o. au-
thorize others to charge, toll, freight OF fare
on its roads, canals and railroads, from the
fact that they are its own works, or construct
ed under its authority. 1t gives them being,
and has a right to exact compensation at its
own discretion.
This power of the State to charge for trans
portation being conceded, it does not matter
what is done with the money, whether it goes
to the State or private corporation, SO far as
the constitutional question is concerned.
This exercise by the State Of control over it's
property and prerogatives is very Different
from the imposition OF tax or duty upon the
movements or operations of commerce be-
tween the States, which imposition, whether
relating to money or goods, the court has de-
-cided that the States can not make.
In noticing the argument that the State
may impose exorbitant fares and freights, the
court very significantly suggests that Con-
gress, under The power to establish post
roads, to regulate commerce, and provide
for the common defense and general welfare,
has already built the Cumberland road and
the Pacific Railroad, and that if any Of the
States or their transportation lines should
interpose formidable obstacles to the free
movement of commerce of the country, and
thus impede travel and produce, the appro-
pirate remedy would certainly be found in
the Constitution.

And your income has been q

DO you think it managing we'll

wife.
whats thirty-seven cents? ask
ed Mr.. Newton, lightly.
Not much to be sure, but still
something. It seems to me we
ought to have saved before falling
behind
But how can we save on this
salary, Elizabeth
Perhaps there is something in
which We might retrench. Suppose
you mention some of your items
sThe most important are house
rent one hundred and fifty dollars,
and articles OF food, five hundred

Yes, and you'll admit that We
can't retrench there, Elizabeth.

They have q new wrinkle in
Boston for making chickens out
Of old hens-that is, by breaking
the breast bone about one and
one half inches from the point
where apersonfeels forit. It look
ed as if it had been done with long
priers by bending the bone up. It
is very nicely done, and cannot be
discovered until the chicken is dis
sected. This is no fish story, for I
bought them myself; but I should
call it foul play.

A Few RULES FOR DAILY LIFE
Do not express your opinion too
freely and decidedly when it differs
from those around you, for merely
saying what II think" when no good
will be done.
Try to give up your will and way
to others in trifes as in more i'm
portant matters, except where prin'
cipal is involved.
Do not complain of little discom-
forts, but bear them cheerfully.
Try to avoid making disagreeable
remarks of any description and
make no unpleasant comparisons.
Do not perform disagreeable du-
ties with a martyr-like air but al
ways cheerfully.
Do not indulge the idea that in
a different position from the one
in which God has placed you, you
would lead a better; happier life.

TELEGRAPH OFFICE EXPERIENCE
A correspondent writing from Pal
myra, Mo-, says: The other day a
colored man walked into our Office
and requested us to send a message
to a town about thirty miles from
here. After much questioning we
succeeded in getting the address,
what he wished to say, and the sig
nature. He said he wanted to EFsee
it CO."
"Allright," " we replied and calling
up the Office for which the message
was destined, inside of two minutes
we informed him that it had gone.
"Gone?' he said

He studied awhile, then said:
"How long before it will get
there?"
"Why, it's there now" we answer
ed.
"Oh, I guess not" he replied; in
creduously.
eyes it is," We replied; 'it was
there the minute we sent ii"
"Oh," he said, 81 reckon it takes
some little time on the way" Then
he fell into a brown study, finally
saying: II reckon I couldn't ever
learn that business.
"Maybe not, we said.
"Was you raised in Missouri"
"Oh, no." We replied, 1--WE are
from New York"
Il reckon so," he said.
"Why?"
"Cause you're so smart; they
don't raise folks like you in Missou-
RI" And he picked up his carpet
sack and took his leave, doubtless
fully convinced that we had been
trying to humbug him.
