MODERN CHIVJLRY.

Tbere con be no doubt that the world has greatly
improyed. despite the croakinrs of pessmists who
yearn fer the good old timts. In those same times

the man of our day, however. this involved large
and useless OUT ay Tor armor and horses ana mel
dental funeral expenses. The more practical spirit
of modcrl chvalry il illustrated by the combat
winch recently took place between two rival suitors
at Pittsburg Pom. She was "a South Side
maiden" an appeIlation which in itself has a
romantic sound, and to determine who had the
best right to her hand they decided to fight under
the MaIqus OF Queens cry IulcsD Thu, the his
toric Marquis poses in new role rs the patron
del Y, not Of sluggers but of lovers. The first
tourney between these rival knights ended in
draw The lists for the second were pifc ned IN
larn which seems sad falling off from the hoYery
mead of Ashby de la Zouche. There is no mention
OF the :" south Side maiden" rs beng resent, nor
does there app to havo been Queen OF
Beauty to aw rd the prize. In'ead, we are tolu

The exports of cotton also amounted in De-
cember to 749, S52 bales, against 4S3,ll3 IN
December 1881, and tho average weight OF
bales handled this cotton year thus far is about
20 pounds, or Is per cent, higher than 1t
was last year. But the average price has
been about 15s cents, or about 9 per cent,
lower than It was year ago. These figures
lead to the belief that the remarkable excess
of S25, 000 900 in exports over imports in
November may have been followed by large
excess in December Also
There is an unmstakable feeling of relief in
commercial circles, because tho end of the old
year has passed without moro numerous fall
ures. 1t was known to every business man by
his own experience that the last half OF 1852
must have been most trying period for most
concerns. and, instead Of alarm because re =
ported failures were unusually numerous, there
has boen decided satisfaction that the yearly
settlements have not occaSlOnet greater
number. The distrust or apprehension when
was felt rather than expressed doubtless was
an iu,portant cause of hesitation in business
toward the close of the year, and, now that
the new ar settlements have passed. a
marked increase Of confidence and OF
activity is expected. In financial circles.
however, the heavy detalcatiOn and flight OF
the Treasurer OF Tennessee cause some dis
turbance. The spcculations in which he seems
to have sunk half million besides his prl-
vnte means it il only too well known, have also
been participated in by hundreds and thousands
of men in business, who sought ut first tenn
porary Investment for unemployed capital
Where unsuccessful investment has led to
speculation, aud speculation has involved
severe losses. the solvency of u firm may be
involved without any occurrence to excite
SUSPICION in the commercial world. In this
way the performance of Treasurer Polk tends
TO cause disrust, though 1t should rather be
regarded "a a natural result of the repudiating
spirit OF his State.

MONEY IND BUSINESS

The new year opened with less excitement In
business circles than had been expected. 1he
large Treasury disbursements on Tuesday, ex-
ceeding receipts by $2,720,O00, were not ms
large and did not bring as speedy relief to the
money market as was expected, and the demand
for money continued pressing, rates at one tune

The improved condition Of foreign trade,

ports from New-York in December is not yet

Any increase whatever is encouraging, and
the records prepared by the leading trades lead
to the hope that the excess of exports over
imports in December may prove to have been
large. There was no increase in pork, bacon,
tallow, lard or cheese; in each of these items
the shipments were smaller last month than in
December, 1881, though the difference in

TILE RALLROAD COMMISSION.

The law passed last winter creating railroad
commission for this State makes it incumbent
mon the Governor to appoint the three com
mlssjoners within ten days after the third day
of January, 1885" 1t thus appears that MIR.
Cleveland will be called upon duI ing the pres
eut week TO perform one of the most important
duties glowing out of his Office gooo board
could scarcely fail to render the public services
of exceptional value. And just as certain IL IT
that bad board would be an lnt0lerable
nuisance. The bill clothes the commissioners
with super 0isory powers of far-reachng impor-
lance. 1t is earnestly to be hoped, therefore,
that no one of Governor Cleveland's appointees
will lac n man who is himself in need OF super
si-i,n.
Tn ortunately, as we think, the appointment
of one of the three commissioners, al hough
nominally given to the Governor along with
that of the others, is, in reality, taken away
from him. For no valid reason, but rather IN
theeyercise OF phenomenal foolishness, the last
Legislature amended the original commission
hill. which, Oh the whole, was a most sensible
measure. 40 AZ to confer upon two of Mr.. Thur
be,,s pncket OF CARNATIONS the right of selecting
a commissioner The Governor is forced To send
Thurber organizations. The Senate can con-
firm or reject the appointment, but the Gov
ernor himself is powerless in the premises. This
feature in the dill aud other objections to 1t
winch we have already pointed on, show the
uropriety of amending it before the t'oyernor
called upon to make the aDpOinlmentS-tlat
| i 10 SAY. before the 18th of this month Never
theless. it is more than probable that the Gov
.rnor will have to act upon the bill as it stands.
| The Assembly which had nothing to do with
passing IT may perhaps propose certain amend
mcut.. But the Senate holding over from last
wear and largely r., sponsible for the present
dangling shape of the uiil, would not be likely
| To concur in any important amendments winch
Iuiyht be agreed upon 10y the House, since to do
=, would he n virtual confession that 1t did not
know what il WAS about lust year. PiIde of
o,inion not lnlrequently has stood in the way
of efOrm
The Thnrber organizations have already
pcked out their mmisslOner-meaning ME-
Thnrber's commissioner. But since there TX
! Itue IN his cateer or antecedents tina cOn-
m uds him to the public ~ person who IL
fued for the place, it remains TO he seen
whether or not the Senate will confirm nm.
| Among the names which have been suggested
tor the commissioners the one which has
met with the heartiest response is that OF A. b.
| Hepburn. Mr.. Hepburn has perhaps studied
the railroad problem in al its various phases
more closely than any MN in the State who
does not follow raroadIng for living. HIS
APPOINTMENT would meet the best expectations.

PnlT TILE PENSIONERS

There is widesJ read bellei-whcther well
or i'll lOunded-that considerable proportion
of our great pension list Is fraudulent; that
names have been added to it by thousands ia
consequence CT the energetic course of agents,
whose fees stimulated their efforts.
TO determine the truth or falsity OF these
repeated charges, might it not he well to
authorize annually or senri-annually tho public
exhibition of the list of pensioners On the rolls
of each agency-the names to be conspicuously
posted in tho counties and towns where the
pensioners resideP To legitimate and honor
able pensioners this will bring relief. They
will take pride in seeing their names published
among their friends and neighbors whereas
those same friends and neghbors will quickly
discern IL there be fraudulent or unworthy
names on the list. When you come down to
each town or village, you geta great cloud OF
witnesses as to the integrity and worthiness OF
every pcnsioner and you will find hearty
