"offered, the railroads suffering upon the
90 frcigltagc of last year quite as great re-
"duction as the canals" We do not see how
this explanation can be correct. The canal
tolls depend, not upon the freight received by
transportcrs, but upon the quantities trans
ported, and tho reduction of % per cent indl-
Gates, not tue decline which we know has oc
CURED in freiehts paid per bushcl or per tor,
but the decline in quantities moved by the
canals. Do the officials Of the Canal Depart
iaent mean to state that there has been Q de-
crease of 08e-fourth in quantities transported
By the railways IF so, they are evidently in
error OF those bulky products which comprise
by far the greater part of the tonnage, both
upon canals and upon railroads, it is
obvious that there has been, not decrease
since last year, but large increase in the
quantities shipped. The total shipments OF
grain from The chief Western markets to the
East were about %, 900, 900 bushels 10 the end
of August, against less than 69,OOO,eOO bush
els last year. Chicago, Cincinnati, and ST.
Louis reports show that the shipments of cut
meats, lard, tallow, butter, cattle and cotton
have been not smaller but larger than like
shipments last year. receipts ut the ehief
Eastern cities tell the same story Detailed
reports of the shipments of Grain, moreover
show that there has been change in the pro-
portion moved by canal. AS an Illustration.
we compare the Produce Exchange reports OF
rail and lake shipments for the four weeks
ending Aug. 26, 1876, with like reports for
four weeks ending Aug. %, 1875:

These reports show an increase Of less than
4 per cent in lake shipments, aud Jan in
crease of almost 80 per cent in rail ship
ments during the same period. While the crop
movement is much larger than it was last year.
nearly the whole increase has been secured by
the railroads Nor is this strange, in view OF
the fact that the average rate during August
WAS 5ss cents for wheat and SIS cents for corn
on the canals, while the rail rates were only
6 cents for wheat and Dig cents on corn, with
an important advantage in time. Under such
circumstances competition must have resulted
dsastrausly to the canals, and the wonder Is,
not that they have relatively lost much, but
that they have not lost more.
Even these facts, surprising a. they are to
those who have had faith in the ability OF the
canals to withstand competition, do not wholly
explain the remarkable loss in tolls. For the
grain shipments by lake have only declined
relatively, not absolutely. and the decrease OF
tolls points to an absolute decrease i'll guam
titles transported it must be inferred, there
fore, that the canals have sustained them
selves better in the grain than in other traffic
or that there has been an absolute diversion OF
q part of the grain moved by lake, so
that, even Of that decreasing proportion, a
considerable part has been wrcsted from the
canals by competition. In any case the eX-
PLANTATION given by the canal officials seems 70
he defective in an important parlicular-lt
does not cover the facts. The explanation ap-
parently does not explain.

Popular favor is vain in Perm. Last month
the people of Lima acclaimed ex-Pre.ident
Psrdo as the savior of his country, and es-
corted him in trlumphal procession to his resi-
dence. A fortnight later a mob riddied the

would have slain Mr. Pardo had they caught
