THE New York lidH, which has taken
G reat interest in the peculiar policies of the
p resent Administration, and is among their
IN ost earnest defenders, takes the following
view Of the present posture Of affairs relat-
ing to the enforcement Of the laws in the
South:
The President, In enforcing tho laws against
Southern marauders, will have one great moral
advantage over his predecessor. President
HAYES has taken the Outrage business" So
called, out of politics. When Outrages are per-
pctrated and the law Is brought to bear on
their perpetrators, the execution Of the law
the moral support of every intelligent and
patriotic citizen, as President JACKSON had
the intelligent patriotism Of the country back
Of him In his memorable contest with South
Carolina treason In 1882. And II partisan
Democrats in the North, or mad sectionalsts
in the South, aSsail the Administration for en-.
forcing the laws, the North will become

party which is not subScrviont to ultra South.

AMONG the most remarkable features of

dinary Importance attached by the public
press to the fact that "ZACK" CHANDLER
has called upon the President. Why, it
was Mr.. CHANDLER who first announced
that President HAYES had been elected,

troycrtcd that announcement. 1t IL the
most natural thing in the world that he

THE astute Washington correspondent Of
the Baltimore San has exercised all the in
genuity of which he is capable in getting
at the bottom facts Of the recent so-called
surrender Of the Administration to the
Stalwarts. As result of this endeavor he
prints the following you-pays-your-money-
neutrality-suspicious. paragraph:
Interest In the attitude of the Administra.
tion toward the South continues unabatod, and
fresh arrivals Of individuals from that section
with further supplies Of outrage literature are
reported. As explained last night the Presi.
dent insists that the determination to enforce
the election laws involves no change In his po.
sition; nevertheless the Stalwarts continue so
to vieait. The hope is expressed by this class
that the South Carolina cases may be tried be-
fore Judge BoSD as they are satisfied in that
event there will be no tempering of justice
with mercy.
This statement undoubtedly expresses
the view of the present situation from the
standpoint of the average non-partisan
critic, but it conveys very little satisfaction
to the Democratic bull-dozers of the South.
Judge BOSD has had experience in this line
of busin ess heretofore, as the records Of the
Albany nitentiary plainly show. Some

THE Cincinnati Gazetto, inspired no

alleged change of policy by the Admins.
tration regarding Southern affairs, prints
long editorial commenting the change, from
which we make the following extract;
Nevertheless tho trial that has been mad . Is
not to be regretted II has tested the South,
and the result has united the Republican
party of the North. Those who disagreed with
the President will be prompt to say, "We told
you so," while those who agreed with him
will unite In deciding the policy failure as
far rs the results expected are concerned.
This deduction that Cancellation has
proved to be failure is affirmed by the
opinion Of every intelligent citizen in the
country; but it Is pcrhlps unfair to couple
it with declaration that, because of il, the
President will pursue any new method in
the execution OF the Laws. lie has never

NEW YORK, Jan. 9-Theodore r. Wetmore
Vice President of the Security Insurance Com
pany, was sentenced to one year 10 the peni-
Tertiary at hard labor and $3.50 fine He said
he was 81 years old, had no apology for the state
of things presented to the court, but he worked
night and day to save the institution, and spoke
of his penniless family in Alexandria Va, and
looked for light sentence. Judge Daniels
commented on the prevalence of defalcations
and said the penalty was the same as fifty years
ago for the prisoners crime, and the law was
defective.
The report of the committee at the bankers
aud brokers' anti-silver meeting considers two
questions: LIST. What effect the making of
silver dollar OF 412a grains an unlimited legal
tender would have on the general business of
the country and upon banking institutions; and
I'd. What measures can be adopted to save our
capitai from resulting loss. Referring to the
first, the report says silver dollars of the pro.
posed standard are worth less than so cents in
gold, and recon- nts the national progress towards
resumption, and discourses at great length on
the disastrous effects on the industry of the
country, and the evil consequences on business
morals and national credit which will ensue if
the silver bill becomes law. On the second
question it was resolved to appoint committee
to meet as soon as may seem convenient. to
prepare measures which shall be submitted to
the financial institutions of the several cities
represented, and to request the committee
whenever it has matters to submit to invite
simultaneous meetings in different cities, with
view OF obtaining resumption as early as prac-
tlcable. 1t was also resolved to memerialize
Congress against the passage of the silver bill,
and to petition that any enactment authorizing
the coinage OF silver as money, except for
change, shall be regulated by its bullion value,

Review of the Portland Markets.
FOR THE WEEK ENDING JANUARY O.

FOR THE WEEK ENDING JANUARY 8.
Trade opens rather better with the new year. The
fine sleighing throughout the state has tendency to
quicken business generally. Prices have fallen off
of the staple articles rendering the situation
easier for the buyer. The money market is still
unsettled and is likely to remain SO until Congress
dsposes OF the Silver bill and passes upon the
resumption act. God is still running low and it
closed Wednesday, Jaauary 9th, at $1.O2A.
Apples still coming in slow and the prices rule
high. Good lots are quoted at $3.50, while fancy
lots are held still higher. Beans are firm and un-
changed. Bread is steady at the quotations. Butter
is quoted as high 30 cents for famiIy lots, while
extra nice lots command high as 80 cents. Cheese
is dull and selling rather slow. Coal is still firm and
our prices are advanced 80 cents this week owing
to the combination of coal companies. Coffee is
firm. Cooperage shows no change. Qunine is lower
aud quoted at 1925. Duck is in good demand at I'M
changed prices. Fish are quiet as usual at this
season. Flour is unchanged at the quotations of
last week. There is not great amount being sold.
Fruit is selling fairly Corn is rather lower and we
quote corn mixed at 81 to SO cents yellow 60 cents
by the lots, while bag lots sold at 67 cents,
meal 66 cents. Hay is offering quite freely this
week for $14 to SIT. Iron is firm and unchanged.
Lard is dull and shows but little movement. Leather
is steady at the present prices. Lumber is rather
more active at the present prices. There is good
supply of moasses in the market, and the sales are
not particularly heavy. A number of changes will
be noticed in the prices of oils this week. Produce
is unchanged. Beef is firm and in good demand,
while pork is dull and declining Sugars are higher
than last week, and quote granulated at 10s and
% for Extra 6. Teas and tobacco are rather quiet,
and there is change in the prices worthy of note.
