The foreign trade returns of the port
Of New York for the week ending last
Saturday are deserving of attention
The correspondent from that city of the
Philadelphia L6dqsr writes that ''the i'm
portations reached the enormous total of
SO. O92, 416, of which $9.6H, obs was
general merchandise and the remainder
dry goods. This is a heavier total than
for any week for nearly two years. The
custom house week for the exports comes
down no later than Tuesday last, when
the total stood at about So. 1874, 401, so
that If the shipments for the current sew
en- days do not improve there will be
further heavy addition to the balance of
trade against the United States, which,
TO conservative minds. swill be likely to
suggest down brakes.' Some of the
items that make up the big importation
bin are worth noting, for instance: Silk,
S42O, 379; cotton laces. S1O7. 545; pre-
cious stones. S197. $50; watches. 81 $50;
cigars, S34, Az; fancy goods. S2S. 1O7;
fans. sl7,01O; champagne, So, 1892;
vines. $50, POI; beer, SOS. 300; pig iron,
SIS. O56: railroad bars. $50. 29s; toys,
8. O54; tobacco, O.673; coffee, $1.25s.-
o25; sugar. s, sos, O5S; hemp, undressed
hides and tea, 81, AZ, $50.

The question of consolidating the cities
Of New York and Brooklyn, which has

Senate Of that State providing for the
appointment by the Governor of thirty
residents Of the two cities to prepare
charter to unite them in one munIcipali-
". The Tribune thinks it is prospect
worthy Of careful consideration, though
It thinks the general opinion will prOba-
bly, be that the time for such union has
not vet arrived.

The claims of English letter carriers to
an increase of pay form a fruitful sub
iect of discussion in the London papers.
A letter carriers case is reported which
is suggestive. The man has served the
government thirty years at So so per
week. He has travelled twenty miles a
day, or one hundred and forty miles
each week. In the thirty years this post
man has walked in the discharge of his
duties 218, 400 miles, and has received (if
his salary has been So so per week all
the while S., AGO as compensation, or
two cents and one-half for every mile
covered. Civil service reform ought to
give him at least half cent more per
mile.

The Connecticut statutes provide that
any railroad company which shall fail to
make true returns, in accordance with
the blanks furnished by the State, shall
be fined twenty-five dollars a day for
each day of such neglect. But the law
fails to designate the officer who shall
prosecute il such cases, and this omis-
sion results practically in defeating the
execution Of the law.

Attending church by telephone is
growing in popularity out West, and it
is claimed that with a good instrument
every note of the music, every sound Of
the service, and every word of the
preacher can be distinctly heard in ones
own house. 1t would, we should imag-
inc, become rather monotonous to sit
still for an hour or two and hold an ear
trumpet to the ear while the entire SER
vice of church was progressing; still
the telephone system of attending divine
service has its advantages. II the
preacher is very dull, for instance, one
can drop the ear-piece and take nap
without causing scandal

several scattered eases arc now under the care

spread of this loathsome disease to places
where the cases are supposed to have Origi-
mated. The free vaccination office has been

ease broke out here. so far l have heard of

The late Commissioners certainly had remark
able way of transacting business. After the as
sessment of real estate made last year, it wal
found that the appraise sement Of Napolesn township
fell several thousand dollars short OF the previous
appraisement. Instead of adding :, lO, or 10 pei
cent to the total amount, they looked around anC
considered who could best stand an increase in the
valuation of their real estate and this and that man
were picked out and their appraisement increased
until the amount came up to the previous one. Nc
notice was given to the parties by the Commissioners
of their intentions, and the only way the fact was
found out was when they came to pay their taxes
The same course was persued in PERSONAL property,
except that record was kept of the amount of the
increase in most of the Instances. signal.
If Bro Fouke will look on page 1888,
Secs. 1918 and 28l4 of the Ohio re.
vised statues, he will find that the
Board of Commissioners have right
to raise the appraisement of any piece
of property they think has not been
appraised high enough. Bro. Fouke
