Fail Trade ET4pecis.

New York Herald, - itemoer ~.
The dullest hypocrit could discern
the signs of the Times in New York
to-day. Crowded ears and stages, no
less crowded stores and sidewalks,
OVERLOOKING hotels, overloaded drays,
and overfreighted steamboats-all at
test the activity Of what is termed
fall trade" A stranger walking up
Broadway at midnight during the past
four weeks might have thought that
this portion of New York never went
to rest. Scarcely block between the
Post Office and Union Square but had
its open stores and piles of merchan-
disc Upon the sidewalks; busy clerks
and swearing draynen, at hours when
ordinary citizens were asleep. What
is true of the metropolis is more or
less true Of the entire country. New
York is barometer of national trade,
and almost every body within its limits
is working hard, and being paid for it.
The docks and storehouses along the
river front were never put to harder
service since the busy days of the
American merchant before the rebel
lion. The river and coasting steamers
come and go with Overlooking cabins
and immense cargoes aud freight Of
every description. The eye that is ma
tive to the harbor, aud familiar with
the names of vessels trading here, will
to-day fnd vessels taking in loads Of
grain and cattle that.were never before
10 the American trade, and that have
been brought nov into requisition to
meet Unparalleled demands.

will lose $4,000, 900 people Besides
plaques We are to have tidal waves;

tors will be lost by the thousands, ow-
iug to the 'capricious dehexures Of the

will be diseased. Famine and hu-
min strife will destroy most of the hU-
man beings left alive by the plague
and finally two years Of dre-from
1885 to 1S67-will rage with fury in
every part of the globe. In 1887 the

The common school Report

There is a growing interest in the
cause Of common school education. and
the people tax themselves 100000 a
year to supplement the State aid.
This local taxation, while small iucom
parison with that of oth5r States for
The purpose, is avery promising midi
cation. Eighteen hundred school
houses have been built during the last
eight years, und there are altogether Z,
600 public schools in the State. attend

Portable 10 the conviction that so many
children Of the pupil age do not 20 to

shows that outside of the pupils ofths
public schools, there are oa!y $4,000

our Foreign Trade.

English manufacturers aud their
workmen ara Cow rapidly becoming
convinced that the foreign trade Of
their country can never be restored
to its former dimensions and itupor-
lance. Meanwhile public opinion in
Europe is profoundly affected by the
growing influence and almost Cypress
i've commercial power Of the Uuiled
States. The volume OF trade in
American products has steadily swell
ed in many aud varied departments
until it appears to these Earopean OBJ
servers to be an irresistible food, sub
merging their agricultural and manu-
featuring interests, alike, and leaving
to them nothing exclusive but ocean
transportation, already without much
profit. Indeed, although the weekly
feet of steamers has recently increased
greatly 10 number, aud although all
Of them leave our shores, heavily
freighted with merchandise, they re

years ago sent US enormous quantities

leaders of opinion in Europe to be the
beginning Of the establishment of new
era in the relations of the Uoited
States to the principal countries of the

EEECTENG .JUDGEs.
Objections 20 Popular Elec-
lions

Al the next general election the pso~
pie of Kentucky will be called upon to
elect Judges of the Circuit Courts
OF all the elections confded directly to
the popular voice, this one is subject
to more objection and to more doubt
upon the part Of the people as to their
own competency to elect. Time was
when All such officers we're appointed
to their places, and placed above the
ordinary Injurious influences that sur
round politicians, 1t is argued 10y
many, that no matter how honest and
upright a man may be he cannot tail
to feel under obligations to those who
elect him; aud it sometimes happens
that Judge owes bis election not to
the best elements OF society. In
short time the candidates for Judge
ships will be mixing among voters, and,
it may be, resorting TO manipulations
and log rolIings-such as is customary
with the seekers after popular favor.
Somehow, this electioneering is repug-
uaut to our idea Of the dignity, purity,
and high sense Of honor which should
characterize him who puts on the Ju-
dicial ermine A Judge shoald be free
aud untrammelled 10 the exercise Of
bis judgments aud the dispeusatiOn of
justice.
The manner of eleeiing Judges will
not be changed, for it never appears
popular to politicians to take one priv
llege away from the people once be
slowed, and the ouly remedy left is to
assist in educating the popular feel>
ing to au elevated thought in regard
to the characters who should be elect
ed to the position of Circuit Judges
In9his District we have as yet no an
nounced candidates, and we hope viii
have none except such as can stand
the test as to the most scrutlnIzIng
investigation as ability, integrity, hon
esty, morals, &c &c.
In advance of the election, while our
purpose can not be construed as in the
interest of an individual, we urge our
people to coutemn the ways of the
politician in lthe election of Judge
sparn the candidate whose character,
public or private, or.wbose manoer OF
electiOneeriug would degrade the high

friend, forgetting even her colt. and
rubbed her head upon his shoulder,
her nose in his face, played with his
wkiskers, and showed by her every
action that her heart was full of JOY
to see him and the old mare was de-
lighted when Charley placed his hand
on the litile fellow When Cochraue
left the place the mare followed him
to the gale, whinnying for him eveu

It Is with mingled surprise and NOR

and indecent conduct Of a party Of III

the arrival of the Presidential party

Missouri, dispersed and went to their
