1t Will be seen that on these articles select
ed promscHouslv, the advance is almost uni
versal, and that it averages considerably over
30 per cent. These specimens fairly represent
the rule that applies in most other descriptions
of merchandise; with some qualifications,
however, in respect to textile manufactures,
the advance on which has been quite moder-
ate and not proportional TO the rise in raw
materials from which they are made. With
this important exception the rise in prices,
since opening of the year, may be roughly av-
erascd at about 80 per cent.
This Is ratio of advance which may well
give rise to caution. 1t amounts to IA restOra-
ton of prices to close upon the figures, estl-
mated on a gold basis, that existed in 1873
previous to the panic. While, upon every
ground, 1t was expected that prices would re-
act materially from the late low range, and
while it is not to be denied that they may at
some time IN the future touch temporarily
even ia" level OF specie values attained before
The now PAST reaction, yet 1t would be contrary
to all experience and all reason to suppose
that the present range of prices will escape a
reaction, temporary though it may be. The
recovery of confidence and the revival of com
mcrcial activity have found the world com
paratively bare Of stocks Of all kinds of goods
and 1t was impossible that the increased con-
sumptive demand could be met without an
advance in prices. But, in many articles the
demand has not been confined to consumption.
Speculation has interviewed, and stocks of goods
have been turned over and over again with lit.
tie regard to the value of the articles as estl-
mated upon legitimate considerations. 1t
would be easy to mention list Of important
articles, the daily transactions in which are
enormous, and yet the purchases of which
for consumption form only Il small part of the
business. There are, indeed, few articles the
advance on which is not materially due to
speculation, either directly or indirectly. The
rampant spirit that has seized the Stock EX-
change has similarly affected the merchandise
markets, and turning goods for a speculative
profit, not buying for a legitimate consump-
tive demand, is the controlling motive of the
moment-Amtrican Manufacturer, Nor. Z.

History OF THE OLD RED CENT.-As the
old red cent" has now passed out of use, and,
except rarely, out of sight like the "old oaken
bucket its history is matter of sufficient in
terest for preservation. The cent was first
proposed by Robert Morris, the great financier
Of the Revolution, and was named by Jetier-
son two years after. 1t began 10 make its ap-
pearance from the mint IN 1872. 1t bore the
head of Washington on one side and thirteen
links on the other. The French Revolution
soon created a rage for French ideas IN Ameri-
ca which put On the cen, instead of the head
of Washington the head Of the Goddess of Lib
erty-a French Liberty-with neck thrust for
ward and flowing looks. The chain on the re-
verse side was displaced 10y the olive wreath
of peace; but the French Liberty was short
lived, and so was her portrait on our cent.
The next head or figure that succeeded this
the staid classic dame with a fillet around her
hair-came into fashion about thirty or forty
years ago, and her finely chiseled Grecian fea-
lures have been but slightly altered by the
lapse OF time.

WHO ROBBED KELLEY ?
The Grand Lodge Wants to
Know,

In browsing about among the Odd
Fellows, last evening, REGISTER repre-
sentative was not long in discovering
that something was wrong. The mem
beers were occasionally grouped together
and conversing in low whispers, amid
which the words 'the committee is hold
ing a secret session now and well
know all about it tomorrow were con-
spicuOus. With some little difficulty
the following story was ELECTED: Grand
Treasurer w. r. Kelley. of Clarksburg,
made the startling announcement, yes
terdav, that he had been robbed Of
81 300 while on the train on his way to
this city. The money, he says, was cut
from his coat, and he produced the lacer-
ated garment in veritication OF his story.
But Mr.. Kelly had been in the city
some time without having said word IN
regard 10 the robbery, and the Lodge
looked upon this a. strange, and accord
ingly committee was appointed 10 in
vestigate the matter. Mess. Edwards and
Houston, OF this city, Mayer, OF Charles
ton, and Frost and Campbell composed
the committee, which met last night at
nine o'clock. After the meeting the
REGISTER representative approached one
If them and asked what had been done.
He was told the committee had adjourn
ed until this morning, without doing
ANYTHING. The committeeman was
very reticent on the subject, and said he
felt scarcely justified in telling anything,
as the Grand Lodge had passed resolu-
ton not to publish the matter. But he
added that it might yet be all right, only
"Kelly was so darned indifferent about
it." 4 full report willIbe made this even
