O'CLOCK.
THUnsDAY. March 2-P. NJ.


The stock market was much less active and eX-
cited than OH yesterday, there being decided dim
mutton of business and less important fluctuations
The movement to-day was a cautious one, though
the bears did not dare to press their advantage with
out fully understanding the nature of the ground
over which they are to travel while the bulls, after
their recent Successive defeats, afraid to
ture boldly on new departure. Consequently there
was mildness to the general speculation that has
not been witnessed for some time past. At irst the
market was weak, and Western Union Telegraph
fell to 0S7s, tho lowest price in the downward
movement Pacific Mail declined TO 25l2 though
not until, after opening at 263l@26la it had risen
to S27. During the forenoon the buying sentiment
predoIninated and under smart purchases Telegraph
rose above 20, and Lake Shore TO u L, the entire
list sympathizng and ruling strong though with no
special activity. The afternoon exhibited smaller
volume of business but the direction of prices was
downward again, though not with the velocity
usual Of late. Outside of the above mentioned
shares the Wisconsin stocks. 0hiOs, aud Erie,
which latter was weak. the market was about neg
lected. Panama advanced from 1921 to l35. Hi
nois Central dropping to 1914. Sales Of Morris and
Essex were made at l0J, and Now-Jersey Railroad
Mt Ii2i2 In the list of miscellaneous, Delaware and
Hudson Canal sold at 1909; Atlantic and Pacific
Telegraph at 20, and Quicksilver at 10, Consolida-
ton Coal dropping to ais. Express shares sold
only ia ANAL lots. The general market at the
close was dull and steady. The sales Of tho
day amounted to about 16l 900 shares, showing ut
the close very general advance over the prevailing
prices OF last evening, viz: Northwest Preferred

Dr. Goodell was one of the pioneers of the
American mission at CoDstantinople He was the first
missionary on the ground and his labors covered the
entire period Of the movement known as the Protestant
Reformation in Turkey. He was man OF rare sim
pcty of character OF great nness in his convictions
OF duty and Of ardent zeal in the accomplishment of his
work combining, at the same time peculiar gentleness
OF manner, and vein OF spicy humor, which gave a
charm his personal intercourse and made his CONVEX
sation rs delightful his preaching impressive In
the preparation Of these memoirs Dr. Prime has done
great Justice TO the subject presenting his character In an
equally Just and attractive light but without exaggera
lion or superuOus eulogy. The notices Of the Turkish
mission, with which they abound, embOdy variety OF
interesting rccOlections, and form valuable coutribu
ton to the history Of American religious enterprise IN
foreign lands.

The money market is still very freely supplied with
loanable funds. but at times to-day money COM
handed rather more desirable rates for lenders.
Some business was done at per cent, and perhaps
above, but the preponderance of the days transac-
tons was below that figure. Discounr is as last
quoted. The United States Treasurer to-day re-
ceiyed $500, 900 National bank notes for redcmp-
ton. The Customs receipts at Washington amounted
to 800 900. The Internal Revenue receipts footed
M 3 &c, 900. The following is the Clearing house
statement: Currency exchanges. $S6,2S2, 5l7 !;
currency balances, 1857, 56i gold exchanges,

Government bonds felt the influence of rising gold

the result OF the day. We annex the latest street

The affairs Of The Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad
Company arc in fair way of settlement. The coal
business of the road is said to be improving and they
are now bidding for a new and important business
The Pittsburgh Gazette says that the oil dealers there
after a thorough investigation of the matter have
discovered that they can transport oil by the Ohio
River to Huntington in barges at comparatively
little cost, and thence to Richmond the Chesa-
peakc and Ohio Railroad at less cost than by the
Philadelphia Road to Rchmoad The managers Of
the Chesapeake and Ohio road have offered Iefners
very favorable rates for freight and much less than
that now paid Now that the road is relieved from
the dangers of haraSsing legal proceedings, every
effort is making to place its business upon sub
statial basis and its promoters arc determined that
this valuable property shall be developed in the
interest of all concerned at the earliest possible time.
The earnings of the st. Louis, Kansas City and N
Railway for the month of February arc re

the purpose by his teacher who considered It waste OF
time He then discontinued his school education, but
aftcrward obtained smattering Of Latin, Greek and
Hebrew although lie became classical scholar
In 1918 he commenced the study Of law in Jefferson
County, New-York. His curiosity was excited by the
frequent reference of the old authors to the Mosaic
writings authorities common law, and he now pur-
chased Bible for the first time This led to his taxing
new interest in the Scriptures and his attention was soon
directed to their religious import. He at length became
so deeply impressed that ne resolved to enter upon

this time he had longer any desire t. practice law He
had no wish to make money, aud taste for worldly
amusements. His whole mind was taken up with re-

MONUMENTAL. CHRISTIANITY. BY JOHN p. LuKDY
Alto. PIP. +j3. J. W. Bouton
In the opinion of the author Of this WORK,
tho prototypes of Catholic Christian faith are to he
found to very considerable extent, In the Pagan re-
ons Of antiquity Many of their symbols are anticipa-
tons end foreshadowings Of Christianity and have been
derived from the cOrIuptors Of the primitive TRUTH as
held by Abraham, job, and other ancient patliarchs
They contain the germs Of pure religion winch was
the province of Christianity TO preserve aud emDody I'D
better system for tire good Of mankind. The author
accordingly has reproduced and interpreted many OF
these SYMBOLS although TIC purpose Of his work is
10 trace out the principles Of Christianity IN the early
monuments of the Church, especially the paintings,
sculptures sarcophag, glasses, LAMPS sea[l1ngs ana
inscriptions Of the catacombs at Rome ana elsewhere
together with the mOacS Of tie most ancient Chrstihh
churches In carrying his plan, he has fol-
lowed the divisions the Apostles Greed, tracing tho
different clauses that synbol interpreted IN the
various monuments of Christian antiquity. The out
come OF his elaborate researches IS the discovery
of a common principle Of unity in the religious
traditions and beliefs of mankind. In every pc
Rod OF the worlds history, religion, as distinct
from poetry, art science, and philosophy, has Deem
developed as a fact, among all civilized people.
Whatever its corupons, it has been essentially one eX-
hibtng unity which had its origin in the human SOUL
as an emanatiOn from q common, Infinite source

the work devoted TO the illustration and support OF the
Roman Catholic faith it contains great amount of rare

Ed. JoURNAL:-As the Democracy
of the West seem to prefer Hendricks
and reform, in preference to Tilden
and reform, will they deny his record?
We charge that Hendricks has al
ways been in full sympathy with the
class who were before, and during the
war, and are now, the most danger
GUS enemies of the country. 1t is
difficult for people in these days to
realize the length to which such men
as Hendricks went previous to 1868.
In the long struggle with slavery, he
was always found opposed to freedom;
he bound himself to the slave power
with all servility, he devoted all his
influence to breaking down the Mis-
souri, compromise and reopen:ng that
bitter conflict which closed on the
battle-field; he was a willing accom-
plice in the disgraceful scheme for
forcing slavery into the free terri
tories of the Northwest; he was the
inventor-and we believe it is the
only instance in which conspicuous
doctrine in politics can be traced to
his limited brain-of the idea that
Negroes cannot be citizens, an idea
which, when promulgated by the Su-
preme. Court, startled the country
with its first glympse of the scope of
the slaveshalders' professions.
He has, in fact, very good Demo-
cratic record. VIDETTE.
