The New York Financial Chronicle, Of the

In State bonds, and the Southern list Is gen.
orally dull. Louisiana consols have again
declined, although one-half the July coupon
Is paid in New Orleans, but the prospect OF u
satisfactory rate Of taxation Is not very
cheering, and voting to pay interest without
voting taxes Is barren sort of honesty"

Our valued contemporary, the st. Louis

In the fact, and calls upon shippers to make a

st. Louis, received on the same day, July Z,
brought twenty-three cents per pound.

The Secretary Of the Treasury Is reported
to have decided that the silver dollar cannot
be received on account Of the 5 per cent re-
demption fund from national banks. One
portion OF the law provides that this fund
shall consist Of lawful money. Another re-
quires that redemption shall be made In legal
tenders. It is on the basis or this latter pro-
vision, doubtless, that Secretary Sherman
rules that the silver dollar shall not be per
mitted to constitute part of that fund.

Since the tax on tobacco was lowered the
revenue from this source has increased. It is
an axiom In the English Parliament, but not
In Congress, that low taxes produce increased
revenue. The reason Of this is obvious; people
pay small tax cheerfully, while they snug
gle to avoid paying high tax, and besides a
small tax Is favorable to increased consump-

In an article on the recent New York wheat
market and the causes stimulating the high
price and active shipping movement, the
Commercial Bulletin OF that city states that
leading operator on Change, when ques-
toned as to the advance. said 1t was undoubt~
eddy owing to the unfavorable crop advices
from Europe, and that the value Of all kinds
OF cereals will continue to advance, and added
that wheat will be selling in New York at
ST Is per bushel before the snow flies"
An exchange suggests that in the produc-
ton Of the soil, there are many OF the small
matters grown on our farms, which, II properly
husbanded and marketed, would yield great
er profit to the owners than the great crops
the cereals and tobacco etc. BY diligent care
and management in marketing the butter
and eggs and fowls of every kind, the quarters
of lamb and Of veal, the large and small
fruits and the vegetables grown In the truck
patch, could be made to produce larger net
profit than is generally gained from the sale
OF the larger crops Of most Of the small farms
in the neighborhood of most of the cities and
towns OF. our country.
