people delight to travel with, and are

The Virgie Lee, which has grown
in favor in so short a time with the

New York Commercial Bulletin
The municipal authorities Of New
Orleans, Natcheg, Vicksburg, and for
that matter, all the cities and towns
along the line Of the Mississippi, up to
Memphis, are e%nlarging the powers of
their several boards Of health, with a
ylaw to the avoidance Of pestilencr on
the return Of warm weather. Street
cleaning improved sewerage, and the
summary suppression oRall ~nuisances
arc the order Of the day. The most
hopeful feature Of the case is that the
merchants and business linen, especial
ly, of New Orleans and Memphis, are
moving in the matter themselves, and
not leaving IL to local statesmen, who
have heretofore pOcketed the money,
and, as has often been the case even
in our own city, left the work upper
formed. Another thing, not less graf
flying, is deserving of notice. The
municipal authorities have stopped
calling uron the national board of
health to help them. That expensive
and comparatively useless institution.
however, is determined not to perish
from neglect. If it cannot find op-
%portunity for the exercise of its
superhuous functions in the
cities mentioned, it is determined to
somehow discover them in the i'm
mediate vicinity-anywhere, in fact,
to enable it to present fresh drafts
upon the federal treasury. Among
other things, it wants 100000 for
complete quarantine est lblishments on
the Chesapeake, at Charleston, Sayan-
nah, neal Brunswick, Georgia, or
Fernandina, Florida, near Ship Island
Mississippi, and at some point on the
Texas coast. We cannot ascertain
that ANYBODY has asked for quarantine
establishments at any of these places.
There is really no reason why the sew.
eral states which embrace these
points should not undertake the
work themselves, if it is needed. We
have no doubt they would undertake
it if the national board of health
would be less obtrusive. The board
also want $4,000 for steamboat 'sta-
TONS below Cairo, and we do not
know how much more for patent dis
injecting ships and other things of the
kind. 1t is TO be hoped that congress
will bestow upon the work which it is
thus cutting out the most careful
scrutiny. Much of it is odorous Of
government jobbery. During last year
the commission managed to make way
with $4,000; it is now calling for
S584,33O to expend between now and
the Both of June next, and $202. 600
during the twelve months thereafter.

The market opened this forenoon
with a decidedly easier feeling, and
buyers indicated a careless disposition
about operating, the unfavorable dis
patches from abroad causing an apa-
thetic feeling. A large portion of the
current receipts now coming into this
market is trashy, dirty, and of low
grade, and sells at from 8 to 81 cents
per pound. Sales yesterday were $50
bales, to exporters 100; to spinners
200, and spectators $50, the market
closing weak and unchanged as fol-

The San Francisco Herald of the
18th instant, in its notice of the
money market there for the week to
that date, says that apathy continues
to control the money market in nearly
all its general employments, and in
yestments are mostly sought in con-
vertible securities, though the hold
ers of that class of collaterals are not
over DESTROYS of changing, except at a
round profit. Interest seems not to
be so much the question as the sound
ness Of the securities in which the
ready funds are seeking placement.
The semi-annual reports Of the Cali
fornia savings banks give a good indi-
cation Of the monetary inactivity at
present prevailing there, The deposits
have been declining for several years
past, now aggregating S51, 1865, 300,
showing a decrease of fully $6,000,000
within the past year, and notwith-
standing this decrease the cash on
hand has been augmented to such an
extent that deposits have been re-
fused, the reason being that they find
it very difficult to make satisfactory
loans under the general dullness Of all
business circles. The supply of gold
bullion is moderate, and local securi-
ties are in good request.
