MARKET REPORTS.

There is SO little business doing that
it would seem almost useless to quote
the prices at all; however we publish
them to let the farmers know what
they could get if the mud would allow
them TO come to market. By the list
it will he seen that extra butter $
about three cents higher than last
week. This is not on account Of any
rise, but we fear that We were unable
to obtain correct figures before. About
$50 is about all that hogs are worth.
and it takes good beef cattle to bring
$50. We cannot find out the real price

plete execution of this decree Of
foreclosure for their benefit"
From this it will be seen that
the company assuming to repre-
sent the Northern Pacific Rail-
road Company and arrogantly
debating the terms upon which
an extension of the franchises
OF that company will be accept
ed, has no title confirmed to it
by any legal authority to exer-
else any corporate powers. The
prctext under which it carries
on business is manifestly fraud
ulent; it is the pretended pur-
chase for $4,000 of property
which cost over $4,000, 600,
withoutany change of possession
or management. The evidence
OF conspiracy and ooliusion to
Adefraud is so clearly apparent,
that it is absurd to imagine that
any court of equity will ever
dare to confirm it; without which
it is folly to believe that Con-
gress will grant 50,000,000 acres
Of land, valued at Sl25,000,O00,
to a company which has only a
fraudulent existence. Under
these circumstances We may as
well make up our minds that
the renewal of the grant to the
Northern Pacific Railroad Com
pany will not be passed by Con
gress at it's present session.

Like the protec-

now laboring. Like the protec-
tive tariff, which imposes an
inordinate tax upon every neces-
sary article of consumption by
the people, for the exelu We
benefit of wealthy manufactal 8,
under the pretext of "fosteripg
home industry" it is beyond Our
philosophy to explain.
On the other hand, the bond
holders and their servltors de-
nounce the measure as repudia-
tion of a portion OF the public
debt. The reputation, at the
worst, would not be more than
one-third of a years interest on
their original investment, upon
which they have already received
the amount eight times over.
Upon this point the London
Times says: " "Repudiation is a
word that can in no sense ST. ,etz.
ly apply to the United States
Supposing it should decree sill
vcr as the sole lawful money Of
tomorrow, we doubt whether
bond-holders would lose much
by the change. At the present
price Of silver, say 55 pence per
ounce, the loss to bond holders
would be much smaller than is
commonly supposed. Ifpaid off
at par in gold coin in New York,
Il thousand-do bond would be
worth e2G6 Is in London, and if
paid in silver it would be worth
9191 12s-a difference of q per
cent. only. 1t is not for a mo-
msnt to be supposed that the
difference would be so great for
a single day. Were silver re-
monetized we would probably
see it at once jump fully to five
shillings per ounce, at which
price the above loss would be
nearly obliterated.
