The American Shipping Laws.
Resolutions Adopted by the Board Of
Trade of Providence, II. L.

The Board of Trade of Providence held a
special meeting Tuesday to take action ON
SERIES OF resolutions concerning American
shipping laws, which are recommended by the
National Board of Trade. After long and
interesting discussion of the resolutions, they
were rejected on the ground that they were in
the interest of free trade and English ship
owners, and not calculated to build up Ameri-
can ships. The following resolutions were
adopted in their place:
Whereas, in the present condition of the coun-
try's farming and manufacturing interests it is in
fact becoming business necessity that the nation
should be COZ nected with foreign lands by Ameri-
can eamship lines; ann
Whereas, to encourage the Inauguration of such
enterprises 1t s absolu ely necessary that American
vessels should be sailed nearly as possible upon
it
Resolved, That such portions of the Revised
Statutes OF the United States as compel American
registered vessels to carr the United States mails
for an inadequate compensation. as is provided in
sections 1876 and ,2U3 of said statutes should be
re ealedi and be it further
Resol1ed. That direct and quick mail communion
ton with other nations should be secured by grant
ing TO American ocean steamship lines liberal con-
tracts for carrying such ocean mails in accordance
with the policy that prevails in the domestic mail
service OF the country, and be it
Resotced, That the present government and State
taxation of American shipping should be modified
TO make such taxes not more onerous than those of
other great maritime nations.
Res0iUed, That the registrat on laws be further
modified SO as to give the owner or master of any
vessel the right 10 engage his wherever he may
please, AID Tor such time and at s::ch compensation
as may be agreed upon between the parties; also
that the three months extra pay be abolished, and
other provisions of like character, in accordance
with the Dill known as the Dingley bill.

The New York Herald has been endeavor-
ing to find out the position of the Democrat
ic party on the tariff by interviewing some
strates anew that the party is all at sea in
the matter. Ex-Gov. Seymour thought the
success of Carlisle would not of itself tend
to the movement for marked change in
his views rather hesitatingly, saying that
his health did not permit him nowadays to
see many persons for the interchange of po-
litical opinions. Gen. Mcclellan, after an
entirely unnecessary preface, in which he
said he had not been for long time in ac-
tive politics, and cautioned the reporter not
to mistake a purely personal utterance on
the subject for a representative one, de-
clared his belief that the Democracy would
have courage enough to make a square is
sue on the tariff, and that the main fight
over the question would be in the West.
Ex-senator Mcdonald declared that revenue
reform would have been prominent issue
in 1884 even if Carlisle had not been chosen
speaker; his election only emphasized it.
He believed the Democracy would put the
same kind Of tariff plank in their plat
form that it contained in 1880, and would
stand squarely upon it. Gov. Cleveland of
New York thought the election of Mr. Car
Isle would tend to commit the Democrats
to the support OF revision of the revenue
laws so as to reduce the price of necessaries
Gov. Hoadley and Gov. Butler both declined
to express any opinion.

Rev. Mr.. Houghton of New Haven, who
gained considerable notoriety some time ago
by sermon on the Rose Amber murder de-
clared in an after-dinner speech the other
day that there is less hypocrisy on the turf
than in the church. OF course there is.
The number of men who pretend to be
horse jockeys, when they are motifs less than
the number of those who pretend to be
christians. There is also less hypocrisy in
gambling bells than 10 churches. In the
nature of things hypocrisy is vice that
fourishes most where there is most need of

The Hon. Frank Jones of Portsmouth is
very much disgruntled at the removal Of
Mr.. Jenness of New Hampshire from a
minor position In the service of the National
House of Representatives. Mr.. Jones per-
sonally asked his retention, but the clerk re-
piled that New Hampshire had no Democrat
ic Congressman and that Mr.. Jenness's posi-
ton was wanted to satisfy the demands of a
State which had some. Mr.. Jones intimates
that if New Hampshire Democrats have no
influence they are likely to be found to have
no money to give away when Southern
Democrats come North TO beg it just be-
fore election.

"Richelieu'' Robinson thinks he has dis
covered that ''those unfortunate men who
were recently tried in Liverpool and SEN
fenced to prison for life," meaning the
scoundrels who undertook to blow up Brit
ish cities with dynamite, were given away
by spy named O'Brien, and that O'Brien
was allowed to tAmper with the mails at
New York for this purpose, and he wants
the House to investigate the matter. This
is very gentle pull at the British lions
tail, but it is probably the forerunner of a
tremendous jerk.

A correspondent of the Bangor Wing sug-
gested the other day that it was probable
that Bangor water was contaminated by the

correspondent of the Commercial accuses
the Wing correspondent of starting a hor-

wholly eradicated from the minds of our
women and children" Are we to infer
from this that only the women and children
of Bangor make use Of water for drinking
purposes?

Senator Frye's proposition for just rep
resentation of Republican voters in the Ma
tional Convention was defeated in the meet
ing of the Republican National Committee
yesterday. Senator Sabin of Minnesota a
new man in national politics, was elected
Chairman of the committee on the ground,
1t lie alleged, that he had no favorite candi-
date for President. The Convention will be
held in Chicago, beginning on the Sd of
June. The date is early. Senator Logan
seems to have had things his own way in
the committee, and some of those who act
with him appear DESTROYS of representing
him as aetuated by motives of hostility to
the administration. 1t may become neces-
sary to remind the Senator that, great as the
West may be, it has not votes enough
to elect Republican President all alone.

The differences on account of which Mr..
Schurz left the Evening Post were about
the relations between great corporations

connection with the editorial treatment Of

subject, which were against the strikers,
were written and published by Mr.. E. l..
Godkin, against Mr.. schurz's protest. Mr..
Schurz has taken no part in the editorial
