eSTA ABLISHED AUGUST a. 1852 WHEELING

S32,s42,47O 40; that the annual expendi.
lures Of the Government, within eleven
years, have been diminished by 1892, :
34S,619 GO, and the Federal taxation by
over $500, 900 900, and that the Republi.
cans have set q fixed date for the resump.
tion Of specie payments. The above iig.
ures speak for themselves. Nor are they
secret in the money centers Of Europe,
for our Government has already been
enabled to convert portion Of its 0 per
cent into per cent bonds, and would be
able TO fund the balance at the same rate.
should the Republicans retain control Of
the Federal finances during the next four
years. The election OF Tilden and Dem.
ocratic Houee Of Representatives would
at once give death. blow 10 the funding
Of the 4 per cent bonds, and, meanwhile,
the European bankers are already disin-
clined to buy United States bonds, as they
fear Tilden might be elected. This dread
Of Democratic Administration is the
reason that in New York the business
people are declaring against Tilden in
masses, that the greatest firms and most
eminent capitalists, without regard to
party have unfurled the banner OF Hayes.
Men like James Lennox, who had
never before set his name TO political
call, like John Jacob Astor and Moses
Taylor, who hitherto have always voted
with the Democratic party, like William
I. Dodge and other merchants, who be.
fore occupied an independent attitude in
politics, now, on the eve OF the election,
stop to the front and plead for the elec.
ton Of Hayes and Wheeler; for they
have the liveliest conviction that the
honest and punctual payment Of
our National debt, and the prom
ised redemption Of our bonds in
hard money, are possible only uuder the
auspices Of the Republican party. This
public participation In the campaign, by
the most prominent and honored business
men Of New York, in behalf OF the elec.
tion Of Hayes and Wheeler, will find
thousands Of imitators in all business
circles throughout the land, and will
turn the scales next Tuesday in favor Of
these candidates. - +US

excitement In tho Cotton MARKET

LIVERPOOL, November 3.-The Post
says yesterday was the most excited day
the cotton market ha, experienced for
years and the enormous sales has thrown
business out OF gear, Yarn prices have
been reduced ali round. There are large
offers at about I'd, but they are mostly
declined. SO little business is the result.
The Courier says for some days the
Turko,Servian armistice, now announc-
ed, has been confdentially expected, and
the Manchester market for goods and
yarns, as we'll as our cotton markets, has
been regaining its tone. Only upon one
occasion, upon the eve Of the American
civil war, have sales reached such figures
as announced yesterday. At Manchester
with the advancing prices business was
active and transactions large.

FRANCE.


PARIS, November SIN the Chamber
Of Deputies to-day Duke De Cazes, Min.
lister Of Foreign Affairs, made statement
in regard to the policy Of the French gov.
ernment in the East. He dwelt princi.
pally on the country's need of peace, and
concluded as follows: II contrary to the
expectation Of the government complica.
tions should arise, we shall never ask
you to compromise the honor anil safety
Of France in struggle which does not in.
volve her essential interests. Thus hav.
Ing used our best endeavors to maintain
the peace Of Europe, we shall at least be
sure Of being able to maintain it for our
selves.
2 II the Cabinet now accepts the passage
OF Gantineau's motion by the lower
House, even though certatain Of It's de-
feat in the Senate, 1t joins in IN agrees
sive and distrustiul vote against President
MacMahon. II the measure is adopted
by combination OF the left and right the
Cabinets majority is destroyed, and either
way the Cabinet must resign.
The Paris dispatch to the Daily Nars
says yesterdays proceedings in the Cham
ber OF Deputies are equivalent to the
adoption Of the Gatinean bill in princi-
pie. The debate was adjourned till to-
morrow. The Chamber will probably
pass the bill in an amended shape against
the wishes OF the Ministry and the SEN
ate will rejectit. This will probably be
the commencement OF serious conflict.

Of the wretched invalids. We then scrambled
up through groups of the women and girls
(who came to gaze on US as a sort of c%uriositv)
to the main building, and what we saw there
would require a more eloquent pen than mine
to describe. | should think there were about
a hundred and fifty people living, eating, dying,
and sleeping side by side. The atmosphere
was so thick and close that we had to stand for
several minutes before we could either see or
breathe, and then by degrees weird and ghostly
figures became visible. The women rushed at
US gesticulating and pointing to the holes in the
roof that let in the rain, and the hard door
they had to lie on without any bedding or
covering. But | think I have given you
enough of the refugees now only one cannot
be here without being absorbed body and soul
by the subject, and so [ infict it on Won. IF
one goes into the lovely country surrounding
this picturesque old town and tries to throw It
on for a time, one is rudely called back again
BY something one comes across. Yesterday,
for example, w made an expedition to some
old mills at the foot of some of the mountains
In the %insurgent district. The scenery was
most lovely, and as we went along, lazily
looking up at the blue sky, we were astonished
to see q number of vultures. We observed it
to the boatman, and he said, oh, yes, they are

THE E OF WIND.
From the Emp. Mail.)

A Reuters telegram from New
York, Feb. 2, having announced
that "the wind blew at the rate
of sc miles AN hour, a force unpreceden-
ted Mr.. J. Simmons, the celebrated
oeronaut, writes to say:-"On October 10,
1860, [ assembled at Peakskill, NY, and
descended at Bedford, N. Y, a distance of
II miles, in seven minutes, as | left
Peakskill at 5 Pm, aud descended at
Bedford at 81 Pm. July 4, 1865, I
assembled at Bath at 6.55 Pm. and descend
ed at Warwick, a distance of 100 miles, at
8 PM. On July /, 1875, l ascended at
Spalding and travelled from Suraeet to
near Great Grimsby, a distance of IS miles,
in so minutes. Many of your readers will
know that my statements are exactly
correct, because the times, at starting
and arrival, were noticed by eye-witnesses.
1t is important that instruments which are
constructed to ascertain the force of the
wind should give correct, practical results"
