SENDING CHILDREN VEST.

II has, ~ our readers know, become quite
common for certain charitable institutions to
send the fricndlcss children committed to
their care to Western homes Judge Nelson,
in tho Brooklyn City Court, last Saturday,
spoke very strongly against the legality OF
Transporting these wards out of the jursdlc-
ton of the State. He did not think that the
law in placing children in public institutions
intended that they should be thus deported.
The case which called forth this opinion was
that of a Mrs. Ilappe, who last November
being IN destitute circumstances, placed four
children, the youngest being three and the
oldest twelve years of age, in the care OF the
Commissioners of Charities, by whom they
were conGdcd 10 The Brooklyn Home for Des-
titute Children. The Home in turn transferred
them to the Chlldren's Aid Society OF New
York, which sent them to Boone County, Mo-
where they were indentured. Now Mrs. llappe
wants her children, and they are not 1orth-
coming.
II must be admitted that this business seems
70 be rather loosely conducted. Counsel for
Mrs. Ilappe stated that the agents OF the
Society made money by the business, recelV-
ing a certain sum for every child Indcnturcd
However this may be. it Will easily be seen
that hardShips and abuses may creep into the
practice No easier way could b9 devised OF
getting rid of children whose presence CHANGED
to lie troublesome. The great distance to
which they are transferred, III many instances,
renders any oversight Of their future treat
mcnt almost impossible. In many instances,
no doubt the prospects Of the child are vastly
improved by the transfer, but parents Ike
Ms. Ilappc, poor though they may be, have
still some rights which the courts will be
likely 10 respect. 1t was urged Chat Ms. lappe
was not a proper person to have the custody
OF the children. This may be, but at the same
time it must bc remembered that she volun-
;arly surrendered them, not finally, but for Il
period, to the care Of the Commissioners OF
Charities. If poor children can thus be trans
frrrcl from one custodian 10 arOthcr-trom

Home to thc Ncw-York Society, and thence

tion, which was adopted:

Gentlemen of the Cincinnati Cotton Ex-
change:
A review of the cotton trade during
the previous season has been customary
at our annual meetings, and while not
entirely departing from the custom, l
shall make mine as brief as possible.
The receipts at this point for the year
ending September l, 1876, have been
1886 bales, against ISL $50 bales for
the previous year, showing an incre ase
of 33 396 bales for the past year.
This is a very encouraging showing,
when we consider the fact that the CROP
in the section Of country more i'm
mediately tributary to Cincinnati, which
promised so favorably at this time last
year, was seriously injured by tho early
frost of last October, and the yield much
below an average one, Notwithstanding
