savannah asa COMMON Market.

SAVANNAH, May 30.-Edit0r Morning
Ne,rS: There seems to be considerable
mlscOnceptiOn on the part of the public
concerning the various circumstances of
our relative position as cotton market,
Exaggerated Importance is attributed to an
apparently serious comparative decrease
in receipts. We are said to be losing our
prestige because certain railroads
deem it to their better interests
to haul cotton six hundred miles
in preference to two or three hundred.
Everybody in the business knows that
port profits little from the Through cot
ton that finds its export outlet at its
wharves, beyond the mere swelling the
volume of its receipts. Let it be remem-
bered that some thousands of this through
cotton diverted to other ports further
North bv various Fictitious freight advan-
tages is all the receipts we have lost.
The commerce of the city has suffered
very little indeed, and as, of course, we
offer the most natural outlet, the dive
sion can only be temporary.
There is, however, another miscOncep-
ton. very stupid, it is true, but which, by
being circulated unexplained through the
country. NAV work somewhat to our in
Jury: and that is the idea that prices OBJ
tanned in Savannah are lower than else
where. Let 1t be understood tnat cotton
called ''middling" in one place may be
classed slow middling" or ''gOOd mid
ding in other markets, according to the
different types prevailing, and it will be
at once seen how misleading are COMPARE
sons made from public quotations.
Now the buyers have their own par
ticular designation of the grades-that Is,
orders are sent to buy so many bales of
''NO, g." for instance. This represents
fixed grade and stands for the same
quality in Norfolk, Charleston, Savan-
nah or elsewhere, while in Charleston it
may He slow middling" and in Savannah
''middling."
1t is a common thing all through the
season to hear the exporters say that they
can buy almost anywhere cheaper than
here; that Savannah prices are relatively
high, and that too when Published quota
lions appear to indicate the very reverse.
Perhaps il would be very difficult to
keep a system of equal classification, al
though, on the whole, it is to be preferred;
but the difference in quotations means
nothing when the disparity of grades is
considered.
Even now our classes are quite high
enough by the standard of the leading
markets, and the higher Ones-Charleston
for eXample-shOuld be lowered.
The remedy would appear to lie in the
hands of the National Cotton Exchange.

Not Much of a Grip.

The Oswego Times is discussing the
propositions "Why the Republicans
should surrender control" We agree
with the Times that there is no reason
why-because the Republicans have no
control to surrender. True, the Republi-
can party fingers in the path of the UNI
diving and mountaineering Democracy,
a sort of obstacle; but it has lost control.
In the Senate of the United States it is at
most, counting its Observation-Disclosures
repudiating alliance, a tie, while in the
House of Representatives of the next two
years, fresh from the people, it is in mi
nority of 10 to 206. Call the roll of the
States, and of the IS Executives it has
only l.. with Legislatures in substantially
the same proportion. Where then is the

Needless Anxiety.
~ To,,fs paagtJ1;c1gg

The political weather vane of the New
York Herald is trying to point a Republi-
can victory in the Presidential election
next year. The Herald declares sit tariff
reform can be kept out of politics the Re-
publicans are reasonably certain of sue
cess and it fancies the platform of the
Kentucky Democrats indicates a desire
TO keep it out of politics. Let it rest its
perturbed soul, however, for the tariff
can't be kept out of politics, even if the
Democrats should want to keep it out.

Faith i'm Onr Entnre.

Englishmen would appear to have an
abiding faith in the future of the Great
Republic, judging from the extensive pur-
chases of lands being made in this cOun-
try by British capitalists.
Only a short time ago Mr.. Whalley, NJ.
F.. representing an English company,
bought 81, 600 acres in Texas, and other
companies formed in London have also
made large purchases here. Recent
" an English syndicate, through eX-
Senator Gordon, bought 100000 acres of
bottom land in Mississippi, between Mem
phis and YazOO. In addition to these late
purchases, the colossal DisstOn transac-
ton in Florida lands four years ago and
Lord Dunrayen's investments in COlOra-
do may be mentioned. Mr.. DisstOn bought
4.OOO.OO from the State of Florida, and
subsequently sold 2,OO0,OOO acres TO a syn
dictate Of London capitalists.
The intention of these English gentle
men Is to drain the land and fit it for set
Element, and then invite immigration. A
steamship line will be established between
its principal port and Europe. Lord Dun
raven owns some thousands of acres of
Colorado land which has more than
doubled in value since he purchased it..
Besides these investments, Englishmen
have made extensive purchases in the
Northwestern States and Territories.

The New York Shipping List musingly

our geographical position, lies upon the
surface. The merchants Of other cOun-
tries 90 after trade and try to supply the
wants Of their customers, while we wait
for trade to come to us, and when the Or
ders come we ill them with goods out Of
stock on hands, manufactured to meet
American wants, instead of the wants of
our neighbOrs. If our manufacturers and
merchants would take the trouble to as
certain what kind Of goods we sell in those
countries, and then produce them,
they would soon find a better market for
their surplus production" The Galveston
Ne,rS sees a different reason for the stale
things above referred to. The NelrS truth
fully SAYS: The reasons why we are
beaten as given above, may be sound
logic i'm the estimation Of the List; but
down this way it has generally been be-
lieyed that when a Yankee failed to find
out what people wanted, it was useless
for anybody else to try. Why not come
out and acknowledge that while we are
anxious 10 sell boots and shoes and other
goods low for cash, we won't agree to
swap goods at fair value, and so the
trade must be called off,
