AmerIcan Wheat In spain.

WASHINGTON, December 30-The State
Department received a dispatch to-day
from Mr.. SChech, the United States Con.
sui at Barcelona, Spain, announcing the
arrival there Of the first cargo Of wheat that
was ever imported to that place from
America. The cargo consisted of 1900
bushels Of Minnesota wheat, was carried in
an English steamer, and the freight cost
$4,000. There was great excitement at
that place, and the grain was pro-
nounced equal in quality to any
ever received in that market. The
Consul reports that one firm at
once engaged three English steamers to
bring three cargoes Of American wheat to
Barcelona, and it was thought that about
thirty-tive cargoes would arrive during the
season, all in English steamers. The Con-
sui reiterates former opinions upon direct
American steam communication with
Spain and other countries bordering on
the Mediterranean. We are indebted to
the fact that British steamers find it prof.
table to bring American wheat to BARGE
Iona for this new development OF our
trade. Fifteen cargoes OF wheat from the
Black Sea were afioat for Barcelona on the
day on which this first cargo Of American
wheat arrived.

REcENT reports from New England re.
veal that the savings bank depositors, to.
gether with the amount OF deposits, have
greatly decreased during the year about
to close. ThGconclusion to be drawn Is
that the people Of small savings have
been putting their means into the Govern.
ment four per cents. In the past, the Gus.
tom has been for these savings, after hay.
ing been deposited, to be, in great part, In.
vested in Government securities by the
bank managers. It is evident that now,
when bonds can be had in denominations
rs low as fifty dollars, the industrial
people begin to SEQ that they have
little need to employ middlemen in
lending money TO the Government and
thereby lessen the profits. II Is hoped
that the plan to provide interestbearing
Government certificates Of low denomi-
nation, To be aitcrward changed into four
per cents, will DO pushed, with proper
safeguards, to a speedy contamination.
When this has been done, the example
might be followed, with advantage, by
such State and Municipal Governments as
have unquestioned credit. The State OF
Georgia has set good example in this di.
rection, by placing in the market new
loan Of half n million four per cent. bonds,
issued in denominations not above one
hundred dollars and as low as Eve dollars.
Nearly oil OF this loan, several days ago,
had been subscribed for at par.,az==srs

At its special meeting on Monday night,
Council acted favorably on the resolution
Of the Finance Committee, which was, in
substance, the postponement Of the col
lection OF ten per cent penalty on city
taxes until January 10Th, inclusive, and
after.that date to reckon the interest on un.
paid taxes from January LIST. The object
OF the resolution was to encourage the
payment OF city taxes promptly by those
who could not meet them at.the end OF the
year, but who would be receiving divi-
dendS, rents, &C., from investments and
other property which usually yield their
harvests shortly after the beginning Of the
new year. There is little doubt that the
course taken by Council, will, in the end,
swellthe City's exchequer more than the
original plan Of adding on the penalty
from to-day, though it may appear at first
to delay collections. Itmay be mentioned
here, however, for the benefit Of our read
ers who have not stopped to think Of it,
that the ten per cent penalty for school
tax is reckoned from to-day, it being mat
ter outside the jurisdiction Of Council.
But as the levy is but u shade over half
that OF the city (26 cents on the 5000 and
that only on Realty, the increase viii be
comparatively small.

INTENPERASCE, PAUPERIsM AND CRIME
The address prepared by Mrs. Sarah X.
Bolton, in the name Of the Woman's Ma.
tional Christian Temperance Union ofthc
United States, and forwarded 10 the inter.
national prison congress at Stockholm last
fall, contains an appalling resume Of the
waste and crime for which strong drink Is
responsible. Beginning athome, the Uni.
ted states, according to the internal revenue
report Of 1879, spends annually over $685.
10000 for liquors-as much as Is spent
for all the food Of the people-and this
amount has since been enlarged from year
to year. An army Of $4,000 men fnd
employment in the traffic, and 10000.
900 bushels Of good grain go to make
the deleterious stuff. Great Britain year.
ly spends Cl4O, re, $40 for alcoholic drinks,
using SS,49O,525 bushels Of grain in the
making. OF course, there Is an intimate
connection between these statistics and
those Of pauperism and crime, Some
years ago Legislative committee in New
York State found that out OF 26l, 252 cases
seyen-eighths were brought 10 pauperism
through drink. A similar investigation
in Suffolk county, Massachusetts,, showed
that fve.sixths Of the paupers were re-
duced TO their dependent condition by
intemperance. In Great Britain one out
Of every Eve Of the population is a
pauper, and q canvass Of the work
houses revealed that about so per cent
Of the adult inmates were victims Of In.
temperance. From drink to pauperism,
and from pauperism 10 crime are natural
and inevitable steps. DR.. Elisha Harris,
after q thorough inspection Of nearly all
the New York prisons and conversation
with nearly every prisoner, learned that
eighty per cent came to their bad ends
through drink. OF the convicts in the
prisons OF fifteen States only ten per cent
claim to be temperate. OF the murders
perpetrated in the United States and
Great Britain full fifty per cent occur dur.
ing drunken brawls. Judge Noah Davis
says that Rven.eights Of the crimes in this
country involving personal violence are
traceable to liquor. On the other hand,
in those exceptional communities where
intoxicating drinks are excluded,
there is scarcely any crime or pau.
perism. Vineland New Jersey, and
Greeley, COL, are notable instances. In
Potter county, Pa, where prohibition has
been the rule for ten years, there is Meth.
or jailnor criminal. In the town OF Bess.
brook, Ireland, with 1000 people and no
liquor shop, there is no poor-house or pc.
lice station. In Tyrone county, with
10000 people, where no public house is
allowed, there is not one policeman. In
conclusion, the address outlines the nature
Of the work of the Women's Christian
Temperance Unions in this country, and
gives the assurance that public sentiment
is gradually growing in the direction OF
the only ultimate preventative of intern.
perance, legislative prohibition.

WARRINGTON, December SO.-The Treas.
ury has coin balance of soc, OOO,OOo, Of
which about $500, OOO, 900 will be available
on Thursday next for resumption pur-
poses; of this about sSO,OOO,OOO is of silver
coin. The demand for silver is rapidly in
creasing, and about $4,000 was shipped
from the Treasury to-day, the largest ship
ment in any one day since reconciliation
- Resumption is practically in force at the
Treasury Department, and since the pre-
MUM dropped Off gold, in nearly every
transaction the person receiving the
money has expressed a preference for
legal tender instead OF coin. 100000 in
greenbacks was paid over the counter Of
the Treasury cash.room to-day to persons
who were entitled to receive coin. There
was only one instance in all this disburse-
ment where preference for gold was ex-
pressed, and this was more on account OF
novelty than otherwise.

shrinkage in coffee during the eight years
has been SO per cent, 20 per cent of which
has occurred this year. The shrinkage in
molasses has been II per cent, Eof which

The Record might have added materially
to the value of its list by quoting the
shrinkage in flour and pork. In the latter
there has been n shrinkage OF over SO

symptoms OF New Departure at the
South.

SOuth.
During recent years disposition has
been manifested on the part OF the South
10 form political alliance with the West
This tendency was due in great measure
to the fact that the Greenback fallacies
came to be held to q considerable extent
in common by the two sections. With the
fading away OF the initiation doctrines, and
the certain dissolution Of the National
party, the drift OF sentiment In the South
is less in the direction Of union with the
WesterR statesmen. The latest indications
show that tho Southernl leaders and influen.
tial journals arc disposed TO unite their in.
Auence with the East in defence Of sound
financial methods, and to aid in directing
the energies OF the country toward a re.
newal OF prosperity on the basis of gold
payments. By way OF confirming this
view, well.considercd and forcible ar.
ticle from the Charleston Nt,s aud Courier
is in point, Although deprccating sec
tional issues, this journal says that, II an
alliance must be made with one section or
the other, "the interests of the
South lie with the East rather than with
the West" The South must go with the
East, "because there is q broader intelli.
gence and higher knowledge in the East
than in the West" II continues:
And II It be the part OF wisdom TO 60
with tho East rather than with tho West,
the Democratic candidate in 1880 must be
Senator Bayard, of Delaware. Butler, Lamar,
Gordon and Hill will gladly support him,
