NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. IN THE FLOUR TRADE.

The reports received at tie Produce Exchange
that the Minneapolis and Northwestern millerS pur
pose to stop milling by December l. in consequence
OF the high price of wheat aud their inability 10 turn
their grain into -four at profit. were the subject OF
comment among memb,rs yesterday. The mer-
chants here charge the Chicago aud other Western
grain dealers with manipulating TO keep wheat
above its legitimate value, thus making it impos-
sibe for the millcrs TO manufacture at
a profit The increased freight rates be-
tween Chicago and Minneapolis. now that lake
navigation is about close. are also factor in the
problem. Even at the increased rates of freigb
there lis great difficulty in securing transportation
1t is said that the Northwestern milers use daily
from 400, 900 10 800 900 bushels of wheat, and if
they should suspend operations it would result in
reducing the price OF wheat aud would advance the
poorer grades OF -four which are mostly in use.
Il was also charged that the same course is pur-
sued by tho Northwestern grain dealers with other
cereals than wheat, and the result of this manpula-
ton of prices has affected the export demand

LUNDBORG's PERFUME
EDENIA.

Z e p T..
(Fr0m the Times. }

ALEXANDRIA, MAY 81.
Recent events in Tunis have had n
great effect here. The public mind is
not disturbed because the new Pro-
te%ctornte may be the first sign of the
dissolution of the Turkish Empire.
The Bey of Tunis is not held to be a
vassaI of the Sultan. He is thought
to be practically as Independent as
the Emperor Of Morocco. The anxi-
ETY. comes from another cause, which
is to be found i'll the words of NJ.
Barth6lemy St. Hilairo, when in his
circular to the French representatives
at foreign Courts he says that what
France is doing in Tunis is only "in
performance of that sacred duty
Which superior civilizations owe to
less advanced nations" France, he
says, has given to Tunis a postal sys-
tenn, a financial control, telegraphs,
and three railways. She is ready to
give good roads, open out mines,
utilize rivers, construct ports, improve
agriculture. Only-and this is what
touches Egypt-Tunis must surren-
der her independence. Were the or
binary Egyptian a student of Horace,
he would say to himself,
~ "Mutato nomine, dc to
"Fabula narratur.'
As a friend said to me yesterday,
There are certainly no Kroumirs in
Egypt, but there is a great i%nterna-
tional camel, there are companies
without end, there is an enormous
debt whose payment depends on a
series of good crops, and an eager,
restless, foreign population. But
above everything, there are "two
! perior civilizations" which at any
moment, the one for the sake of
India, the other because the First
Napoleon taught his nation to think
that the Mediterranean ought to be a
French lake, may suddenly feel bound
10 perform the sacred duty" which
, 1881-06-29

voked." This is the kind of talk in
native circles.
Of course, the cases are not paral-
lei, and the Egyptian alarm is un
founded. But there is a grain of
truth in it, and it has somewhat inten-
sifed a feeling Of shostiIity towards
the numerous foreign officials who
are to be found in the higher branches
of every administration. Egypt is a
little forgetful of what has been done
by foreign influence in the last few
years. The financial reform begun
by Nj. Goschen and completed by the
Commission Of Liquidation is wholly
due to foreigners. The administrative
reforms, still incomplete, have all
been made by foreigners. The rail
ways, the telegraphs, the ports, the
customs, the post-office are all admin
istered by foreigners. The only good
system of justice is in the hands of
foreigners. Such educational progress
as has been made is due to foreigners.
Yet, now that the finances are on q
stable foundation, the Egyptian Gov
eminent is a little inclined to dis
pense with this foreign aid. l do not
mean to say that the desire to have a
larger share in the administration
is not a very natural one. But
foreign aid is still indispensable.
There is not yet a capable native
Governing class. Were the Govern
mcnt suddenly to ~ left m native
hands, the country would speedily
return to the old anarchy. Years
of education, by example as we'll as
by instruction, are still required.
1t is worth while, however, to con-
slider what can be done to satisfy
the party whose %watchword is
" Egypt for the Egyptians" They
demand, for instance, a constitution;
a representative government instead
of an absolute monarchy a respon-
sibIe Ministry instead of an indie
pendent Council of State. The
almost total absence of any public
spirit and the extreme ignorance
of the masses make this demand
impossible. AS a matter OF fact, q
Parliament based on the principles
of popular representation has exist
ed since SGG, but it is a mere sham,
and has only once been known to
do otherwise Gin the case of the
Moukabalah law than confirm the
decisions of the Council of Minis
ters. In short, for years to come,
the Central Government must con-
tinue to be what it is-a despotism
tempered by the wise counsels of the
foreign Controllers. But there is
no reason why the intensely central
ICED Government should not be
modified so as to develop little by
little local Aself-govcrnment. For
instance, every village has now its
headman or she'll eZ 5eled There is
no reason why he should not be the
head of a village council elected by
the villagers. The village councils
might, in their turn, elect larger
assemblies, with functions similar
to those of the county boards pro-
posed for Ireland. Local roads,
schools, canals, and other purely
local matters would be under their
, 1881-06-29

Government ana the people quII0
justify this experiment, and the
submissiyeness and love of order
which characterize the natives
would make it free from danger.
Some local funds would, however,
be required for the needs of these To-
cal governing bodies !; yet the burden
of taxation is already too heavy to
Justify the imposition of any further
charge on the %peasantry. The taxes
required to meet the needs of
e73,OOO 900 of public debt and all
the expenses of administration are
too heavy to bear any increase as
regards the masses. But at present
there is no income-tax, no house-tax,
no stamp-tax, and these charges,
which would fall on the rich, might,
if imposed, enable the central autho-
rites to make some small local
grants. The waste lands which are
TO be seen near every village might
also be coded to the communal
councils.
ConcurrentIy with this gradual
development of civic life, education
and justice must be equally consider
ed, and schools and courts gradual
" placed within the reach of the
poorest. Then will come the time
forrepresentative government. Mean
while Egypt must consent still to
utilize foreigners, and as long as she
is well governed she needs not fear
the fate of Tunis,
| ought not to close my letter
without some reference to a dispute
which has arisen between the Egyp-
tan Government and NJ. de Lesseps.
The latter claimed on behalf OF the
Suez Canal Company the right to
make q fresh-water canal from
Ismailia to Port Said, and the Gov
eminent has, questioned the right,
and for the present refused the per-
mission. Nj. de Lesseps persists / n
his claim, and is about to form q
company in spite of the Government.
The quarrel arises out of conflicting
readings of the company's charter
granted in 1856, as affected by the
Emperor Napoleon's arbitration in
1864. The charter (Article y dis
tinctIy authorizes the construction
of a fresh-water canal, starting from
the Nile at Cairo, running down to
the Isthmus, and dividing into two
branches near Ismailia, one going to
Suez and the other to Port Said.
The main canal and the branch to
Suez have :becn made, but hitherto
Port Said has been supplied by a
pump and a line of pipes. Now that
Port Said has increased, this supply
is thought insufficient, and M. de
Lesseps proposes to make a canal to
feed Port Said, but also to irrigate
the intervening desert lands. To
all this the Government replies that
the company lost its rights at the
time of the Emperor's award, and
that, as Port Said is sufficiently sup
piled with water, the project must
stand over. Of course, Alexandria
is pleased with this result. The pro-
gress of Port Said is thought to
mean the decay of Alexandra. This
is a mistake from any point of view.

THEwORLD.
The approaching Sensation.

The spectacular drama soon to
presented here, is thus described by
the agent of the company to the New
Orleans States: THE World is big
thing in the way Of stage effects. 1t
requires too large cars to carry its ma
chinery, and the undertaking is so
immmese that we cannot show in one
night towns. Consequently we came
through direct from Louisville. Com
panies depend usually upon the stage
managers and carpenters regularly
employed in the theaters, but we can
not. We have two stage managers and
three stage carpenters of our own, and
will have to hold a special scenic re-
hearsal Friday next, to see that every.
thing moves smoothly.
There are no waits. The drama is
in five acts and seven tableaux. The
curtain falls seven times, yet so quietly
does the machinery move that the
whole play is over by half past ten
O'Clock.
The first three acts are entirely
spectacular. The first shows the de-
parture Of the vast steamer from Cape
Town, Africa; the second is taken up
with a little ioye-making and the
terrific explosion Of the steamer-a
real live explosion, where everything
on the stage is smashed to pieces
while the third act is the triumph of
the play, for in it the mcn are seen
cast away upon a raft at sea.
Tho whole stage is taken for this
scene. Nothing but sky and sea, with
the raft bobbiug up and down, can be
seen. The moon sets, and finally the
sun rises. Away in the distance is
a tiny vessel. The men on the
raft hail, and at last their call is
heard. The vessel veers about and
calls for them. The effect is magical,
and the audience is carried to the
pitch of enthusiasm.
After these acts the drama begins,
and love-making and ~rascality occupy
the attention. The hero is confined
in a m~adhouse, but makes his escape,
and at length, in the last act, the vii
lain is pushed down the well of an
elevator. | tell you the properties Of
the play are immense. Everything is
gotten up regardless of cost and the
scenes are so realistic that one can
scarcely remember that the whole is
a theatrical disply and an illusion. Oh,
it will take like FIRE. Everybody will
want to see it, | can promise,

saITinI on the Ghost In SLAM
Ief.s

(From his paper on Hamlet"
"Othello" and Macbeth" in The
Century Magazine for Noyember.)
If the dramatists of ancient Greece
were too severe in the observance Of
the Aritotelian rules in regard to the
unities Of time. place and action.
Shakespeare was forced by the age in
which he wrote to free himself entire
ly from them. In bis time the thea
ter 10 England was as yet in a PRINT
tive state; the audiences were not
accustomed to philos0phic representa-
tons, and it was not the custom of
cultivated society to enter the public
resorts then known as theaters. I'd
to the time when Queen Elizabeth
c~ondescended to have Henry VIII"
represented at Windsor Castle. the
works Of Shakespeare were appreciated
but by few. Had he lived our time
ne would doubtless have changed the
form Of many other dramas, and
would not have failed to see that
many things would be better entirely
omitted or left to the imagination of
intelligent spectators. For instance.
in the first scene Of Hamlet" the
ghost appears to Horatio, Marcellus
and Bernardo; and in the second
scene these three personages relate TO
Prince OF Denmark all that they had
witnessed in the first. Now.
suppose actors were able truthfully to
represent the surprise and awe thew
experienced in seeing hal unexpected
apparltion; suppose an audience highly
intelligent and educated in dramatic
art can it be denied that leaving this
episode entirely to the Imagination
would prove far more effective and
grand than the actual appearance of
the ghost! 1t may be added too. that
Tor the advantage Of dramatic art. IL
would be highly desirable TO exclnde
the ghost. The illusion would he

Of the year for learning from commu-
MON with other peoples thoughts and
ideas. The him the loss OF the fair
would prove a great blank, depriving
him Of his principal time ofrccreation
and Information.
To the farmers wife the fair is as
important; here, she will see other
butter than her own, other chickens
than her own, other vegetables and
other honey than her own. There
she will for a few days be freed from
that constant care which a farmers
life brings with it, and be able to ex.
pand her ideas on farm products and
modes of culture; here she will for a
time be young again and enjoy the
talking Of farm life and farmers
interests over.
To read the accounts Of half a dozen
fairs is to learn something of the stu
pendous development OF American
agriculture, and particularly in this
the case where men Of prominence aud
culture do not disdain to join and i'm

stirring speeches at the meeting of the
farmers.
