The Toronto Globe thinks that the exporta-
ton OF live cattle from the United States tt
England must cease with this year Ii the CON
tagious diseases {anlmas1 act recently paced
In England be strictly construed. There are
no national laws in this country regulating
the expectation of live stock, except few In
sufficient customs regulations, and the laws
-.-~...1 -.t1,IJJi tttLiun OF The Texan fever and
ether diseases show that the United States
has nothing to do with It, and. as the procur-
ing of constitutional amendment is q work
of long time tho situation is O. serious one
Besides there is 9 possibility that such an
amendment could not get the sanction of the
requisite three-fourths of the States. The in
terest of the States cast Of the Alleghenies Is
TO get their meat from the West as cheaply
as possible, and as long as the outlet to Eng
land Is open it is pretty certain that the price
of the best qualities Of meat will not go down
very low. 1t looks as though the American
trade will be in the dead meat branch at least
for the immediate future; and that branch Is
now definitely settled to be less profitable
than the export Of live animals.
A Washington writer gives tho following
summary Of Director Linderman's (of the
port:
Purchases Of bullion for the fractional coin
age were made from time to time during the
year until February %, 1873 and amounted to
1894 1893 GA fine ounces at q cost Of $7,114,-
548 60, an average Of 1859 cents per ounce
fine. The London rate for silver bullion dur
ing this period averaged 5431D7 pence per
pound British standard, equivalent to 11sO55
cents per ounce fine. Purchasing silver for
the dollar coinage was commenced In March
and continued from time to time, as advanta-
geous offers OF the same were made or as the
mints required additional bullion for this cu1t
rent work. The total amount purchased for tho
dollar coinage UP to September 80 was IT,
925,904 So fine ounces, at o cost to the govern
1nent Of $21 ,Q57,369 IS, an average cost of
1l7.47 cents per ounce line. at tt16 Coinage
rate for standard silver dollars. ZIG iii per
standard ounce, the above amount purchased
will produce S23, 176, sos 10.
ALI available means have been employed to
ascertain as accurately as possible the domes-
tic production of gold and silver. end the fol-
lowing are the estimates and actual returns
which have been furnished of the out-turn
from the various States and Territories dur
ing the last fiscal year, the aggregate of
which, however. appears to be somewhat be-
low, In gold at least, the actual amount de-
posted at the mints:

An astonishing answer In compound inter-
est has just been summed up and charged
against California man by O court before
which suit was brought to recover principal
and interest on o promissory note. The note
was for $780, made by George Z. Walker to
william Hood in 1854. It was payable in six
months and bearing 3per cent interest per
month, which was to be. compounded and
added to the principal If not paid each month.
A mortgage was given as security for the note
on some land owned by Walker. Walker left
FOR Mexico before the maturity OF the note and
