NOT AN UNPLEASANT FUTURE:

Our foreign commerce, as shown by
the report of the bureau of statistics,
shows remarkable degree of prosper
ity. The report for the year, ending
June 30, 1883, shows the total value of
imports and exports during that time
to be 81, SAT, O20,316 a greater sum, than
during any previous year in the histo-
ry of the country. The value of ex-
ports of domestic merchandise was
S804, 223, 632, an increase of $7O,OS3,OO0
over the previous year. The imports
were 1923. 1S0,914, leaving a balance
of trade in our favor of S1CO,658, 488,
as ainst similar balance only one
fourth as great in 1882. The value of
the exports of agricultural products
was oe1o ,269,449, OF II per cent
of tEe whole; Of manufactured
products, $111,890,OO1; of mining
products, including petroleum oil,
$51 ,444.857; OF forestry products, 3d.
976, 143; of the fisheries, $,275,375, and
of all other commodities, S., 1865, O87.
OF the agricultural exports cotton
leads the list with value of $247, $685.
721, breadstuffs coming next with a
value of S2O8, J4O,85O; the export of
provisions reach d $107, 388,287, while
the tobacco exports amounted $22,-
O95,229 In the list Of imports sugar
and molasses hold first place, with val
ues reaching 500, 1858 5. Wool and
wooden goods hold second place at $685.
224, 2S3. Silk and silk goods stand
third at $5O,807,616. Chemicals. drugs,
dyes and medicines aggregate $43, 1885,
287; coffee, $42,050,513; iron
and steel, $4O.796,0o7. 1t is
shown that the ,Ipart of
manufactured goods is On the in
crease, owing to the slight decrease in
protection duties. Last year these
exports amounted to Sill, $4,000, and
yet this covers but ninety-two per
cent of all the goods manufactured in
the United States. Were the import
duties reduced to a revenue basis our
manufacturers would find sale in the
markets of the world for all that
manufactures run to their utmost
capacity, could produce. Altogether
the report shows that no serious fears
may be entertained for the business
of the country. With good crops and
large production of the precious
metals together with relief of the
masses from oppressive taxation the
prospects, in truth, promise the great
est degree of prosperity.

The Election.


Yesterday was a most delightful
day for the city election, and early in
the morning both candidates mar
shaled their forces ana reviewed the
troops. Nearly every hack in the city
was pressed into the service of one or
the other of the patriotic gentlemen
who desired to preside over the city
fathers at S25 per night for the forth
coming year. Upon the sides of the
steedS were hung banners not unlike
those OF circus procession, upon which
were painted vote for DeCordova for
Mayor" or "Vote for Saylor for
Mayor" according to the patriotic
gentleman in whose service the piece
of painted cloth was to haunt. In Or
der to make these more attractive,
they were designed something after
the handwriting of schoolboy taking
his first lesson in penmanship, but as
the vehicles were intended for that
part of the voting population who
have never mastered the art of read
ing, the more picturesque the flag the
more they would appreciate the candi-
dates, and for this reason, no doubt, they
were made as ungainly as possible.
All day long these carriages were busy
| hauling those able-bodied patriots
whom the gentlemen desiring to pre-
side over the city council, lat S25 light,
were fearful might forget to ercise
that glorious privilege of an A merican
citizen.
AT the several voting places there
were the usual number of patriotic
gentlemen, whose duty it was to see
that the respective voters had their
minds dD1V DreD3re0 before
they exercised the solemn duty
devoiving upon them. These gentle
men were busy, and when the Cordo
va henchmen had properly prepared
them the Saylor men took them in
hand. and the poor voter had hard
time of it; but he got his vote in, in
proper shape, but not until the candi-
dates for aldermanic honors had given
him a lesson or two on the duties of
patriot in the exercise of the elective
franchise. The following is tabular
statement of the vote by wards. Say
lor's majority over De Cordova is 225.
The lucky candidates for aldermen
are:
First ward, w. J. Sutor and J. p.
Schneider; Second ward, Lewis Han
cock and Ben Pillow; Third ward, B.
G. Wells and T. j. Campbell; Fourth
ward. r. B. Underhill and Joe Schu-

THE real unadulterated truth in re-
gard to the so-called Danville riot will
in all probability never be divulged.
but the report of the Investigating
committee of citizens is at least as
likely to be believed as the Malone
version. The trouble with such heat
ed campaigns as that recently waged
in Virginia, on the color line, is that
it gets both races into such a state of
mind that trivial personal difficulty
is liable t. lead to a bloody conflict
Knowing this to be the case, any po-
litical leader who makes the race issue
prominent in politics commits crime
against the peace and good order of
society.

THE Philadelphia Record, with a
bona fide CT ctilation of over 100000
copies, does not run as much reading
matter as one paper in Texas having
not one-twentieth as large circula-
ton. And yet the Record is one of the
richest papers in the United States, as
well as one of the very ablest. 1t has
the finest newspaper building in
America, and its proprietor has made
a contract with builders to build him
500 tenant houses in Philadelphia
costing in all over 100000. This
comparison is made simply to lead
Texas people to think before they
take great newspaper leaps. This
recklessness is fault in Texas jour
nalism.

RECENT developments in England

RECENT developments in England
tracing the origin of typhoid fever to
impure milk-the milk being poisoned
by impure water given to the cows to
drink-should arrest the thoughtful
attention of farmers and dairymen.
There appears to be no provision in
the internal economy of COW for
eliminating the deliterious Qualities of
the water she drinks. 1t poisons her
blood and her milk, and those who eat
her flesh and drink her milk suffer &C
cordingly. Cleanliness is not only
next to godliness, but cleanliness and
healthfulness are born twins.

The German Admiralty is to try
the experiment of sending a complete
ly equipped hospital ship with the
Baltic squadron on its evolutionary
cruise. The ultimate intention is
that in any future naval war ship
of this kind shall accompany the fleet
into action, carrying the Geneva flag,
and having her hull painted white,
with red streak, in order that the
enemy shall be able to distinguish her
from a combatant, and so refrain
from firing at her.

stances are now forcing to the front.
His election in itself will be a formal
and definite declaration of the party
position on the tariff; will assure the
country that the Democracy mean to
follow no course of discrimination and
hypocrisy. With Carlisle in the chair

Sufficient Proof.
Dallas Times.

1t is said Col. Upson, of San Anio-
Mo, is pluming himself for a race
against Judge Hancock at the next
election. Epson has established - e
character of being $50 awfully-> in
earnest when he desires a nomination
from his party, that he refuses to as
sist the party if any other person is
nominated. The fact that he wants
an Office is demonstrated by having
given the world the benefit of his

Ell MAHDI threatens Khartoun, and
it may be that England will have to
take steps against his advance. Being
situated at the junction of the White
and the Blue Nile, Khartoun is the
market for the traffic of Abyssinia
and the Soudon, and practically con-
trolls the trade of tropic Africa. If it
fall into the hands of Ell Mahdi, the
Khedive's revenue will be seriously
diminished-and the British bond
holders will not quietly submit to the
diminution of their dividends.

ONE of the peculiarlties of New
York city politics appears in the union
of two such opposing leaders as John
Kelly and Hubert o. Thompson, who
are said to be agreed upon the same
person as the most appropriate success
sor to District AttorneyMcK lately
deceased. 1t does not follow that their
nominee is the best man for the place,
but it is very clear that, if appointed,
he will, in dispensing the patronage
of his Office, hold the scales of justice
very evenly between Tammany Hall
and the county Democracy.

IT is charged that Gen. Grants effort
to have justice done Fitz John Porter
arises from the fact that he wants to
be placed on the retired list. He
would make Porter's friends his, and
no doubt when Gen. Fremont makes
an effort for him, Grant will no doubt
"homologate." 1t is pity to do
away with this only supposed gener-
ositY of lifetime.
