The PennsxrOve Ferry.
CAPT. TA60ART ABANDONs THE LINE-No INN
date PROSPECT OF ANOTHER KFFoRr.

CAPT. TAGoART ABANDoNs THE LINE-No NNE-
D1ATE PROSPECT OF ANOTHER KTFoRr
In q conversation at his Office in Philadelphia,
yesterday, Capt Z. b. Taggart informed Con-
MERcIAL reporter that he should not run ferry
steamer between Wilmington and Pennsgrove,
this season. He has other more lucrative routes
for the steamers of the line Of which he ia one
of the managers, which will require all OF them.
Capt. Taggart also has grievances OF private
aud pecunisry nature which have Influenced him
in reaching this determination.
With the withdrawal Of Captain Taggart al
present hope of 3 ferry across the river falls.
The subject OF the establishment Of new line
has been talked of, but thus far without any
definite results, and we are informed that it ID
not very probable that anything will be done,
this season, by the gentlemen who have had the
matter under consideration. What action the
Jersey psople are taking we are not informed
Yesterday morning, Col. French, proprietor Of
the hotel ut Pennsgrove, waited upon Capt
Taggart in relation to the withdrawal of hia
Steamers and was assured that he CTaggart,
would not be in the way Of any other enterprise
/ that might be started.
Thus the matter rests, with very little pros
poets for ferry this summer, unless the people
| OF Wilmington and Jersey combine 70 start it
This they will ultimately have to do. and the
sooner an earnest effert 10 made the sooner vii
permanent line Of communication be opened

While the Gazette and probably some other
Democratic newspapers steadily hold that Re-
publican officials have irresistible tendencies to
corruntiop, we have never taken the correspon-
ding view, appropriate to our difference OF poll
itics. We don't believe that opposition to our
political views necessarily tends to rsscality. Yet
we cannot help remarking the recent sad case OF
peculation in Philadelphia, where Mr.. s. Gross
Fry, the guilty party, is Democrat "bred in
the bone,' the son Of old Jacob Fry, of Mont
gonery county, once Democratic Auditor zen
eral Of Pennsylvania, and descended from
line of Democracy running away back to the
beginning of parties in the Republic. He ha.
been very prominent in his party in Philadel
phia, and several times its candidate for higl
position When next the Gazette has an attacl
of bile over ''radical corruption" it might lool
into the case of brother Fry.

A third TERM, Plot.

The latest contribution to Third Term Ltera
ture is the announcement that the President de-
clinsd to say that he was not candidate for
reelection for tile reason that he WAS threatened
with assassination in case he did not do so. The
Philadelphia Bulletin has information to this eff
feet and appears to lay much store by it. Ac-
cording to this authority, Democratic plot
was formed two voars ago 10 force the
President to silence, it being supposed
that political revolution could be
occasoned in that event. If Grant should
disavow Third Term ambition h, could prac-
tcallv name his successor and the Republican
organization would remain intact III people
should believe, through the President. refusal to
speak, that he desired q reelection, the Tidal
wave, or the yox Populi or some other awful
thing would come raging dawn ON the Radical
carpet bsggers and a most welcome overthrow

Many OF your readers may not be interested
in examining these figures, but the facts here
indicated, Affect the interests Of most Of them.
The present condition Of our, Foreign Commerce,
- shown BY the latest official reports published
seem to point to the approach Of more health
full state. And il the present forced economy
becomes habtuA in the place of the past eI-
travagance, in the consumption Of foreign luxu.
res, &C.. with the product Of our gold and silver
mines undminiahed, it will not be long, until
our paper notes will be equal to the desired
gold
A very gratifying feature Of our foreign trade
il, that the exports are very nearly the same in
1878 and 1874, and sbout el0O, 100000 more than
1872 or any previous year, notwithstanding they
were periods Of great suffering and depression.
Our present foreign trade is more than double
that Of anti. var times, and would now give en-
ployment to hundreds Of American ship build
ers and marines, to construct and navigate the
vast number of vessels required to carry what
might fairly b considered our share Of this i'm
usnse traAac, but our want Of foresight a. . ma
ton, with tho enhanced cost here, has enabled
foreign vessels 10 carry three-fourths Of It, A
change In this respect would benefit no place
more than this city. Liza PUsEr.
