against S37,0l0,7lO for 1877. Montana
shows an increase all in silver, Utah a

Resumption In baltimore. !.

BALTIMORE, MD., December 3l.-Re.
suption was practically accomplished in
this city to-day, all the banks paying out
gold in exchange for currency whenever
demanded. One bank officially stated
that, although resumption. was fixed to
take place tomorrow, it would not affect
in the least the, situation, as it had yir.
tually taken place several'days since. To.
day, in several instances, preference was
expressed for the currency, the coin being
considered too bulky for convenient hand,
ling. Officers OF the banks all express
readiness to assist the Government
to the fullest extent in circulating the
coin, but the officials think there will be
littlej demand for it after the first cali,
have been satisfied.
The recent action OF Secretary Shermai,
in ordering the reception Of greenbackI
for duties Is generally approved, and Ii |,
thought removed the last serious difficult,
in the way Of resumption. Several Of tht
banks have, without any effort, iaccuni,l,
lated considerable supply OF gold coin,
with which all demands can be met. 4
prominent stock broker stated that hi
firm had some days ago ceased TO recog
nize the difference between gold AM
greenbacks. He considered resumption
as an accomplished fact, and saw nothinl
that would interfere with its accomplish
ment in law.

Aulrh Old Time In nnilImorss.


BALTIMORE, December 3l.-There was
little business transacted at the Corn Ex-
change to-day, and when the gong sound
ed for session all was ut once uproar,
confusion and disorder. Nearly all the
members were armed with "tin horns, and
when some one succeeded in enticing an
organ-grinder into the room, they all
struck upa grand accompaniment to the
.enlivening strain Of the organ; those mem
bers who were not armed with horns or
other instruments contenting themselves
with terpsichSrean feats within the circle
formed by their musical brethren, only to
be interrupted every few minutes by the
report Of an immense cannon.cracker,
which would explode in their midst.
About one thousand crackers were exg
ploded, adding to the general excitement.
The next feature was o Graeco- Roman
wrestling match between the champion
athlete Of the Exchange, six.foot giant,
and n. member who Is only four feet in
height, and the ridiculous efforts OF the
latter to win the match and the former /
efforts to throw him. over his head, were
heartily enjoyed by the spectators, ali Of
whom indIlged in the most hideous yells
and gyrations: Then followed 'Virgi-
mia Reel" which, was iudulged in by a
large number OF the members present,
and was performed in the most ludicrons
manner, and finally ended in a grand can!
can. During the performance Of the above
exercises prominent member OF the Ex.
change made his appearance in fancy cos
tune, and disguised'as gigantic monkey,
and created much merriment by his ridic;
ulous performances. Upon appearing he
was Saluted with 70 yolley Of of'lighted can

him. The frolic was participated In by
nearly all the members OF the Exchange.

,AlPoIaoner on Trial.

Norwich, CoSS., january 1.-The trial
of Mrs. Kate N. Cobb, for poisoning her
husband, was resumed this morning.
Prof. Chas. a. Daremi was placed on the
stand. His examination lasted all day,
and is uot yet completed. He testified
that in all he had examined, fifteen or
twenty pounds Of Cobb's body, in it he
found about. a quarter Of grain Of white
arsenic. He should Judge that there was
three times as much arsenic remaining in
the whole body, making one grain in all.
Arsenic, II administered long before death,
will be found in every part Of tho system.
He had iound'lt in every part Of Cobb's
body which he had examined, and was
positively convinced that there was poison
in every part Of his system. His opinion
was that arsenic was present in quanti-
ties to indicate a fatal dose. One or two
grains are generally considered fatal doses.
The poison might have been administered
weeks before death: 1t tcertainly was some
time previous. Adjourned. 81
