FLTCTNATLNG PRLCES.

The course of the markets since January
has been toward lower prices for nearly all tie
farm products except cheese and cotton, and for
petroleum, but toward higher prices for cotton,
manufactures of cotton, iron and It's products,
and cheese. The advance in iron has been
the more remarkable because it was thought
by many that the wonderful rise during the
latter part of 1879 could not be maintained.
Yet No. foundry has advanced from $33 so
TO $38 80 per ton steel rails Of American
make from $72 so TO $85 per ton, and of
English make from $50 so to $64, and iron
rails from $5S to $G5 per ton. The
average advance in iron and the pro-
ducts of iron since January 1 has been
about 14l2 per cent and since January, 1879,
the advance has been about 1875 per cent for
pig iron, 102 per cent for steel rails, and Of
per cent for iron rails. During the past
month, cotton printing cloth has also adj
vanced about - per cent, though midding
uplands have gained only gig per cent in
price. Cheese has been in especial demand,
and the average advance in price in this mar
ket has been lily per cent. On the other
hand. butter has declined about 10 per cent ;
eops about 20 per cent hogs and bacon from
8 to per cent corn 5l2 per cent; wheat
about 8 per cent, and petroleum about 7l2 per
cent. In the prices of coal, beef, talow and
lard. there has been no change of consequence.
The general average Of prices. with respect to
comparative quantities, has decreased for art-
cles exported, increased for articles imported,
and declined O little on the whole for all arti-
cles consumed. In short. excepting as to iron
and a few other products. speculation has
begun to work its own cure. Ii is fairly to be
expected, too. that the high prices of iron and
its products will soon increase the supply so
largely as to bring about a reaction; for many
of the works in the country are not yet IN
operation, the production can be quickly in
creased, and imports of iron, both raw and
manufactured, are greatly stimulated by the
present prices.
The decline in the price of wheat is q nat
ural consequence of the marked decline in
exports. During eight weeks ended February
4, the quantity of wheat exported from the
seven Atlantic ports was only 8, 420,5 bush
els. against IL ,768, $50 bushels for the CORE
spending weeks last year, decrease OF
3,345,956 bushels. or nearly 80 per cent

shottld send a steamer at least once fort-
night, and once week If possible. 1t is DOUBT
full whether the proprietors of the line now
running from this port to Brazil will put on the
additional service although DESTROYS to do so)
unless our Government should grant mail
contract to the lire. 1t is understood, now
over, that they would do so at once II such
contract were granted Whatever policy De
taken by the Government in regard 10
this matter, it is plain from the simple
facts of the case that the future course
of our export trade to Brazil depends
very largely indeed on the increase OF steam
communication, and the matter is certainly one
of vital importance.
There is no doubt but that Brazil is most
promising customer for American manufactures.
Australia was once thought to be, and posi-
bly may be yet; but Australia is trying
TO develop her own manufactures, and that
means that she is not to be large customer
of America if she can help it. Brazil, on the
contrary, desires to be heavy purchaser, ana
1t remains with Americans to decide whether
they will give her the necessary trade facill-
ties

The Democrats are not entirely wanting In horse

genius the Republican party is indebted for its
present bright prospects, Hence they reserve their
choicest epithets for John sherman.

tions Such methods SAVIOR too much of Democ-
racy 10 find favor with constituency as intelli
gent rs the Republican party must appeal To.
The vigorous efforts the Delaware Republicans
are making TO fracture the northeast corner of the

they should succeed in polling n good vote and in
demonstrating TO the Democrats that their hold
upon the State is not wholly secure 1t will be a
much more encouraging sign of the encroachmeut
of Republican principles upon the strongholds of
the Democracy than u spasmodc attempt to carry

Glover must have had many quiet chuckles at the

The better portion of the Republican press con-
ours quite generally 10 the opinion that few more
booms like the Pennsylvania would kill of a
stronger Presidential candidate than General
Grant.
The Pennsylvania Convention in resolving thai
the list Of Presidential electors from that State
should be carefully scrutinized to make sure that
contained the name Of no one ineligible, notified
any Democratic Governor ambitious to follow in
the footsteps of Grover OF Oregon, that there would
be no call for his services.

The third month of the present Congress is well
on and no cry has been evoked for the Bourbons TO
go to the country on. The Democratic statesmen
should follow the example of the Louisiana legsla-

mileage and the privilege TO 90 home.

is to attend the caucuses and see that good trust
worthy men are elected to represent them. DOn't

In one respect the Democrats have the advantage
of their opponents. They are not bothered with
booms The only boom to which they can lay any
claim rests quietly in the pocketbook Of the sly old
gentleman in Gramercy Park.

specimen extracts from a large number OF
letters recently received from all sections of
this State upon the Presidential question.
They seem to show that the fraud in
Maine" to quote from one of them, has
"made a boom for Blaine" and indicate also
a sentiment of considerable strength against
the candidacy of General Grant.
The American side of the controversy be-
tween Free Trade and Protection is well
summed up in a letter from Mr.. Thomas III.
Dudley, formerly Consul at Liverpool, which
we print on another page. The letter is
the outgrowth of pleasant correspondence
with an English friend, to whom it is ad
dressed, and it seems, therefore, less formid-
able reading than a formal essay.

tural College, lifts up his voice in defence of
the Bureau of Agriculture against the wicked

Ia. in effect, an argument that the cost of the
Investigations of the Bureau Is not to be
thought of in comparison with the possible
benefits to be derived from them, and that
great results have been achieved already.
The bank robbers have resorted now to me-
diaval methods. On Saturday night they
roasted the feet Of a bank president
In Illinois, whom they found in the
building, and who was necessarily unable
to open a safe locked with time-lock.
IL there Is any device for extOrtion which
these gentry have now left untried. 1t is that
of pulling the teeth of such bank presidents
a. are rash enough to put themselves in the
way of danger. This was found an effectual
method of raising money some centuries ago.
and was practised then by some very dis
tinguished robbers indeed.

opinion, enable the tenant by Government AID

minister it. This familiar political truth has
now forced itself upon the attention OF the
most ferocious reformers this Republic ever saw
the followers of Kearney in San Francisco
letter, which will be found elsewhere, gives
an account of the amusing efforts OF the Sahd-
Lots party to make use of their victory aiter
they had won it. Their trials are only increased
by the wicked refusal of the men whom they
nut into Office to carry out the promises OF the
campaign, particularly that one which was 10
secure at least one office for every member OF
the party The brightest point in the picture
is that which exhibits the fallen state OF kear-
ney, whom his former followers have ceased 10

some hope that Kearney himself may some day
despise Kearney as he deserves.
The Republicans of West Chester, the CAPT.
tai OF Chester County, Penn, nave heiu
meeting to protest against the action OF the
Harrisburg Convention, to oppose third term,
and advocate the nomination of Mr.. Blame.
This meeting of which some account Is given
elsewhere, no doubt represented the general
sentiment of the party in that staunch Republic
can county, where the feeling against the nomI-
nation of General Grant was reported the other
day to be absolutely unanimous" III
comes out also that the Harrisburg Con-
vention was even more nearly drawn
struggle than was at first supposed. 1t is now
believed in Philadelphia, and asserted by some
of the delegates. that all of the original Blaine
men on the State delegation to Chicago con-
slderthemselves bound by the instructions OF the
bodies that originally appointed them, to wit, the
District Conventions. These instructed them Tor
Blaine, and for Blaine they intend to vote
relying upon the decision of the last Ma
tional Convention against the power OF a
State Convention to stife the voice of a
District, and compel the casting OF a
State vote as a unit. Old Pennsylvania poll
ticians admit the impossbility of holding the
State vote as a unit for Grant at Chicago
unless possibly for a single formal ballot.

business comes slowly. but still occasionally, to
Dr. LeMoync's crematory. On Saturday last the re-
mains OF Miss Dolly Hartman. of Pittsburg, PENN
were consumed IN the presence of her family and Of
a few friends. The process was completed In two
hours and fifteen minutes. and the ashes weighed
nbont five pounds a clergyman was in attendance
who read the service for the dead. As If to recog-
nize the cousi nment of dust to dust and ashes to
ashes ne took little Of the latter from the furnace
and sprinkled 1t upon the body. Thus il will be
seen that public opinion respecting burial Is no
longer fixed and unanimous, aud 1t IS possible that
the future may witness great changes in public
feeling IN respect to the disposition of the dead
Yet il must be remembered that such changes
il ever they should become general, would DO
both various and great. aud that those who acqul-
csced in them would be numbered by millions
An Old aud universal custom can never be rapidly
discarded. For very long time, If not forever the
majority will prefer to be buried as their fathers
were before them. Yet the time will probably come
when there will be nothing startling or remarkable
about burning when those who sanction and prac-
tice it will no longer be regarded eccentric; when
the whole matter will be regarded rs one of taste,
about which there can be no dsputing.
