THE ODDS WITH THE "BULLs."-
There is now no longer any doubt that
the report to which we alluded on Mon
day that the leading speculative capital
lists had Joined hands was well founded.
Looked at as mere speculative game
there are now on one side of the game
not less than $500, 100000 of capital
combined with the power to make events,
so far as railroad management is con-
cerned, as well as with practiced skill in
all the arts of the market. On the other
side there is just as much skill of this
kind, but $15, 900, 600 would probably be
an outside estimate of the capital in
hand. When the public and the street
are thoroughly demoralized, this latter
force may be supreme power-it was
such last week. But with the fears of
people dispelled, and even with no par
ticular reason for generally elated con-
dition of the public mind, it will be seen
that the contest is an unequal one, as it
comes after niue months OF liquidation
in the stock market, and after prices of
leading stocks have fallen from 80 to so
per cent, and some of them even more.

A SETBACK TO GLADSTONE.
A Majority Against the GOvernmen ent
on Borough and County Fran
chIae.

LONDON, March 22.-In the debate in the
House of Commons last evening on Mr..
Arnold's motion, declaring in favor Of the
equalization of borough and county fran
chise, Mr.. Goschen voted with the majority
against the government. Although Mr..
Gladstone intimated that the division would
be taken as indicative of the opinion Of
the House on the main question, the majority
numbered 1872, and the minority 1877. The
latter consisted of conservatives and seven
teen Irish members. Mr.. Goschen has hith-
erto opposed county franchise. The debate
was ultimately adjourned by consent. 1t is
considered that the above division has set
tied the question that the regulation Of
county franchise is clearly not within the
mission of the present Parliament.

The smaIl.pox in south BeshIehem.

SOUTH BETHLEHEM, PA, March 22.-No
new cases of smallpox have been reported
have occurred since yesterday. The ma
jority Of those yet afflicted have the disease
IN mild form, and the number of deaths
is not likely to prove as great as was at first
anticipated. Three houses were to-day

under complete control, and, If the present

The New York World still regards the
business outlook for the country as most
favorable. It takes the ground that the
transportation interests in the West and
South are Of course prOhting largely by

present gains are nothing when compared
with the increase of business which IN
the future must follow the settlement
and development of districts nov unten-

ton of a million human beings from

keeper, the city merchant and the manu-
fscturer. It is, in q word, almost i'm
possible to measure the rate Of develop

Nitrogen.

This word may cOnfound the farmer
unlearned, unskilled in chemical science
and lore, but let him not be discouraged,
it has COMPOUNDED the learned in all ages
since its discovery and baffled every ef-
fort to seize upon and hand it over 10

of fertilizers would fain sell has custom
ers isolated or pure nitrogen for their
own manipulation, if he could, but is
obliged to end in the assurance of nitro
genous compound" or ammonia, COM
posed of nitrogen and hydrogen. AS
the air Is composed of four parts nitro
gen to one part of other materials, we
see that free and abundant as that ele-
ment is, its most abundant component
part is the most costly ingredient of plant
food. in our hands, because the most difil
cult of artificial utility. 1t has been ex-
tracted from the air, but the result is
cyanogen, 8 poison, and Is the active
principle in prussic acid. 1t is now stated,
however, that a process has at last
been discovered, combining hydrogen
and nitrogen existing free in the atmos-
phere) and thereby forming ammonia
gas, which, by treating with murlatic
acid, is turned into chloride Of ammo
MIA solid. This is considered a most
important discovery, too great, perhaps,
to be true, inasmuch as it indicates moth
ing less than a grand revolution in the
trade of commercial fertilizers, and
opens up to the agriculturist natures
secret of mysterious plant fertilization.
The process may be costly in its incep-
ton, but it is the first step, the entering
wedge to explode the mystery, and sci
ence will probably very soon make broad
the road that the most unlettered farmer
may safely walk therein. With this
secret 10 his possession and the exhaust

The correspondence between the State
Department at Washington and the Rus
sian foreign office regarding the status
of American Jews temporarily residing
in Russia, shows a wide difference of
opinion between the two governments as
to the proper Interpretation of the treaty
of 1882. The Russian authorities main
tain that the treaty is to be construed in
connection with the local law, and that
American citizens residing in Russia
have no rights except those guaranteed
by the laws of the empire, which may
be changed and modified according to
circumstances. On the other hand Mr..
Blaine, in his correspondence upon the
subject, maintained that the treaty is
paramount to the local law, and that the
rights acquired under it cannot be linn
tied or restricted in any way by legis-
lative, Judicial or executive action. He
also instructed the United States Minis
ter at st. Petersburg to inform the Rus
sian authorities that no race distinctions
can be recognized among citizens of the
United States, and that American Jews
residing in Russia under the protection
Of the treaty must not be subjected to
persecution on account of their religious
faith.
