The most interesting passage IN 3Er. Glad
stones budget speech was also the most dis
couragiDg L is new thing to hear IL one
of Mr. lsladstone's budgets Of ''lhe setting
sun of prosperity even although he referred
not to the. future, but 10 q past from which
he, at least, has done his best 20 shake as
free. His comparison Of the growth Of pop
ulation, revenue, and expenditure between
1S42 and 1879 is calculated to 1iscountenance
sanguine hopes 80 as TO the future Of our
finances. Another dsagreeable fact which
Mr.. Gladstone had to mention WAS the (linin-
utioD in the yield Of the income tax For
the first time the yield per penny has fallen
In 1S42 9 penny yielded E772, 900, Ten
years later it brought in ea10, 900, but il
1878 it had increased to 81, 900, 000 This
year instead Of bringing il e. 99O, 900, it has
only yielded s1, 943, ,000-a falling off Of .e47,-
600. This however, is not solely 10 be attrib-
uted to reduction in the incomes OF the
| weather. classes. a threepenny income tax
last year might possibly enough have shown
| no diminution il the yield per penny 4
high rate Of income tax has a natural teh%n-
CIV to promate evasion and dacite On the D.4t
of the taxpayer, which necessarily diminish
| eg receipts. TO the revenue it produces, and
| the reasons for this fact must be taken into
| account In estimating the significance Of the
reduced yield OF the income tax

New ORLEANS, May 12-Jefferson Davis
in his speech at the unyeiIng Of Jackson's
statue said: ssFrom the academic shades Of
military institute Jackson went forth 10 battle
in the cause of States rights, self-goyernment
and constitutional liberty. He lived FOR his
country, never doubling the justice Of his
cause, believing it was righteous and trusting
in il. He died as live to-day, feeling that
the Confederacy might have succeeded be-
cause it was founded ON truth and justice.
He gave his life for the whole country, and
the country gave its heart to Jackson. You
men, upon whom he leaned in the hour OF
danger, In honoring him also honor your
selves

An Electric Railway.

LoSpos' May 13.--siemens j. ualkea, the
well-known Berlin electricians, gave to-day
which proved an entire success. The trial
was made in single train car, with al cleo
trio battery concealed between the wheels.
It was carried through on the rails on which
It ran, with the principal battery Sc the sta
ton. The rails are thirty-nine inches apart,
and exactly resemble those OF an ordinary
railway, the gauge being narrower. The
greatest speed obtained was eighteen English
miles an hour II necessary greater speed
could be obtained, but this was not allowed.
The railway will be opened to the public on

Women Spectators Ana New Yerk.

There was the Ladies' Stock and Mining
Exchange that burst into flower on Union
Square nearly q year ago, and Wilted very
suddenly about the beginning Of the winter.
The lady manager disappeared so completely
that no one could even get glimpse OF her
She put notice in the papers saying that
she would reappear at tho end Of thirty days
and settle with her customers, to whom she
owed about $50, 900, but I have not heard
that any Of them have seen her since. IN
derstand that another concern, the Ladies
Stock Exchange, which was started Q year
ago on TWenty-fourth street, near the Fifth
Avenue Hotel, is not at present ln an encour-
aging condition. The woman who set 1t 60
ing and has managed il 81 along wants TO
sell ont. If it were success this would not
probably be the case. New York has plenty
Of women who speculate IN stocks, but It
seems they do not care 10 patronlze their own
sex very extensively. When they want to
make turn they prefer TO send their orders
direct to Wall street. They appear to have
more confidence il 6 business way IN men
than ii Wonen--to trust them farther and
rely more on their judgment. Whether they
are right or wrong am not prepared to say,
but the fact is az / ssateit. One Or two Ladies'
Stock Exchanges started within year have
disappeared, and the other Is going, Or rs
least appears to be going. The inference i
that women who do speculate il stocks do
not give their custom to their own sex.
