against il. If this amendment should Dc
adopted, and it is hard to see how MIR. Plume
could have expected any Republican to vote
for it.
The weary discussion has placed in strong
light the legal soundness and the practical
wisdom of Mr.. WINDOWS course After days
of debate, less than ten Senators were willing
to question the validity of his acts; for some
of those who voted against the clause declar-
ing those acts valid did so on the ground that
such a declaration was wholly unnecessary.
Nor has any Senator been able to show a single
particular in which Secretary Window eX-
ceeded hslegal powers. He found 500, OOO,oOo
of five and six per cent bonds maturing, which
the Treasury had the right to pay, or, II the
holders were willing, to extend at the former
rate He had the good sense to secure an ex-
tension at lower rate than that which the
Government was bound to pay, and Demo-
cratic demagOgues, incensed because the Treas
ury had escaped from bankruptcy, immedl-
ately assailed him, and declared that
no Congress would ever vote to approve
the wise and benefcent course by which
many millions were saved for the taxpayers.
But the majority of Democratic Senators had
learned that Mr.. WINDOWS course could not be
successfully attacked, and therefore voted to
approve the very act which nearly all Demo-
cratic journals had denounced.
1t was wise to let well alone. The Republic
can party had made n record, by this brilliant
and successful course, upon which it could
well afford to stand. But Mr.. Sherman thought
that little more money could still be saved
for the country, or that the Democratic party
could be placed in still worse position. The
latter object he has undoubtedly accomplished.
But the Republicans in both branches of Con-
gress can now wisely reject all propositions to
NEEDLE with the bonded public debt. 1t is
now in anextremely advantageous position for
the Government, and no legislation is likely to
improve it. The credit for all that has been
accomplished is due to the Republican party,
and from the beginning of the rebellion to
this day the Democratic party has not taken
n single financial step that has not tended to-
ward National dishonOr.

by the Treasury was not largely increased.
OF gold, according to the report of
Wells Fargo g. Co., the country pro-
duced $3O,653,959, but the Director Of
the Mint makes the amount about
100000 larger, and believes that as
much as 81, OOO.O was consumed in the arts
and manufactures. IF so, perhaps 100000
of domestic gold was added to the monetary
supply, besides $57,795, 900 of foreign gold.
The fact that some gold goes abroad, there
FORE does not of itself presage serious disaster,
as many suppose. The country could spare
part of the $50, 900, 900 added to its stock
within the past year, and would not suffer, if
the outward movement would not cause dis
turbance at the monetary centres. The diff
Guilty is that the gold received during the past
year has been absorbed SO completely, by
boarding and otherwise, that an outgO of only
$10,000,000 would probably cause serious
change in the rate Of interest at New York,
and in the prices for grain at Chicago.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1882-02-04

New-Yorll is prepared for everything except an
emergency. While fire brigade arrangements
admitted to be the first in tho world, our proyi
sons for saving life are far behind Paris and info
rOr even to those of London. Apparently we have
made the saving of property our first object, and
treated the saving of life a secondary matter.
Paris and London. in addition to the fire engine
stations, are provided with portable fre-escapes
They consist of extending ladders mounted on
wheels. They can be run in few moments to any
part of the district. They can be handled by
roundsman or indeed by anyone. BY series of
ropes and puIleys they can be extended on a tele-
SCOPE principle, as to reach the highest houses.
In London, in all large squares and public places an
apparatus of this character is placed under the
of an emplOye of the Royal Society for Saving Life
from Fire Long before the fire engines can reach an
outbreak the firc-eScape man is summoned, and the
inmates ale saved even if the building is destroyed.
Our fre-escape ladders are a cumbrous machinery,
conveyed on heavy wagons, arriving far behind the
engines in many cases, and long after the victims
they were intended to succOr burned or suifo-
Gated.

FOPEIGN COMMERCE..

At this time, when gold has begun to go
abroad after moving to this country almost UNI
intcrruptedly for three years, the official reports
of foreign trade are especially timely and in
structive The return for December proved a
little less unfavOrable than it was expected to
be, and yet showed decrease of nearly
800 O00, 900 in excess of exports over imports.
The returns for the year 1881 reveal a very
remarkable change in the course of trade. In
the first four months, exports Of merchandise
were 500, ,247 larger than in the cor
responding months of 1850, while the imports
were $I3,175, $50 smaller The comparative
gain was over 500, 00,O00-a wonderful
change for one-third of a year. The
next four months, ending August 81,
showed the beginning of the startling revOlu-
ton which has now occurred Instead of
great gain in exports, there was decrease of
$l7S6S, 215 in comparison with correspond
ing months of 1850 and instead of decline
of 100000 in exports, the decline was
only SlO,3S2, 7S5. Relatively, this part Of the
year showeda loss of over 81, OOO, 00O instead of
the gain of $6GOOO,OOO in the first third of
the year. From September 1 to the close of
the wear this revolution went so far that there
was an actual loss Of nearly So, 100000 in
exports of domestic products, while there was
an increase of nearly $27 100000 in imports.
The details for these four months deserve cS-
pccial attention:

TRIBUNE reader who knows good thing when

cause THE INDEX costs 80 cents He thinks that the
circulation of this annual would be largely increased
if it could be sold for 25 cents He does not seem
to know that the quarterly instruments of
"Palmer's Index to The Times" Uondon) cost ten
English shilngs each and that four of them, en-
bracing the period covered by THE TRIBUNE NDix,
would come to two pounds sterling, or SO 6S. In
comparison with these figures 30 cents is an ex-
ceedingy moderate price. The compilation of this
volume is one mans labor all tho year round, and

All persons who are eager to become prOprietors
of an orange grove would do well to consult the Rev.
T. w. Moore's Handbook of Orange Culture in
Florida" second edition Of which has just been pub
lished by f. r. Peton & Co., of this city. The book
contains any amount of information on budding and
grating, sour stumps and sweet seedlings. trans
planting and fertizing, protection from frost and
Insects and it has throughout the merit of treating
a tropical subject in a sternly practical way. On
its bright side the culture of this luscious fruit pre-
spnts itself as an attractive and lucrative industry
But the discreet pages of Mr. Moore hold forth the
inducements of large and profits only to those
who devote themselves to the work with intelli-
gence zeal and perseverance. The man who can
not succeed in raising potatoes will be likely TO score
a disastrous failure when lie undertakes to grow
oranges

STABBED WITH SCISSORS.
Man Probably Fatally wounded.

Ga Thursday night man by the name OF
James Cochran was seriously stabbed in the
left breast at a house on Roberts street,
near West Broad. We learn the following
particulars from g county officer who was in
the vicinity at the time: 1t appears that
Thomas Marshall, who rents apartments in
the house referred TO, invited Cochran, who
is a neighbor, to come into his room. Marshall
was lying on his bed ct the time, and
when Cochran came in be sat on the bed
beside him. The parties then had social
drink, and engaged In conversation. They
had been talking bat 8 short time when q
dispute or quarrel occurred, and harsh
words passed between the men, when Mar
shall suddenly sprang up, seized pair
of large scissors lying on the table near by,
plunged them into COchran's left breast
near the nipple, ip1licting very serious, and
It is feared, a mortal wound. The blood
spurted copiously from the wound ,deluging
his clothes. Messengers were at
once dispatched for a physician, and
in a short time DR.. T. c. Harden
arrived and rendered all the service posi-
bic. The injured man was then conveyed
to the residence OF his mother, 10 the i'm
mediate vicinity. Yesterday the wound
commenced bleeding internally, and the
prospects Of the mans recovery are greatly
diminished. Marshall assarrested by q
policeman and taken to the barracks. The
scissors with which the wound was Inflicted
are at Magistrate MOllna's Office.
