YESTERDAYS MARKETS.

There was a better feeling on change yester-
day, and although wheat and produce was dull, a
bettertone prevailed. At Milwaukee wheat adj
vanced 1%@2Bc. The Chicago market was
stronger and higher, owing principally to the cold
snap. Wheat closed 1%c higher through the
whole list of futures. Corn in sympathy with
wheat, or, perhaps, more correctly speaking, in
sympathy with pork, scored 96@hc over Tues
days close. Oats also advanced
A@1Kc. Pork which perhaps was
the leading cause of the bulls victory,
made big strides upwards closing 95c@$1. 90
above Tuesdays prices; lard of course followed
pork advancing 2s@25c. The day was bulls
run for the bears. The stock market opened
strong and fractionally higher, led by Union Pa
cifc; speculation, however was slow and reac-
ton soon set in and the market remained weak
till near the close when a slight rally took place
The market closed with prices from u to 4 per
cent. lower than on Tuesday. Mining shares
were weak and lower butmore active.

IN S.ACKCLOTH.

The high tariffites in Maine are becoming
respondent. Some Of them, taking counsel
of their fears, are yielding the ground of
extreme protection. A quiet revolution in
the old North East, still, the state of Blaine,
is going on, and the sticklers for high tar
if are fast weakening. A Belfast manufacture
ing firm, all Republicans, hitherto high pro-
tectionists, yieldingly put themselves on
record as follows:
eve do not object to the Morrison bill.
Lumber, salt and coal free will benefit more
than injure. We are manufacturers and
wish to have our manufactures protected,
but too much protection is morally wrong
and injurious. According to our observa-
tons Republicans as well as Democrats ia
vor low tariff, in this vicinity, on necessa-
ries."
eff New England high protection manu-
facturers thus unlimber, there is good rea-
son for tariff reformers everywhere to be en-
couraged to push on the column of reform

ATTITUDES POLICY.

The effort of President Arthur to create a
Republican party, or, more properly, an Ar
thur party, in the South has turned to ashes.
The reason for this is simply his "trade and
dicker" methods and the employment of cor
rupt agents to carry out his projects upon the
basis of the federal patronage.
Thus he undertook to attach to his ambi-
tious fortunes the delegates to the National
Convention from Arkansas. To carry out
his purposes he formed an alliance, often sive
and defensive, with that savory ex-carpet- bag
Senator Powell Clayton. That profert was
the signal of failure, and in the fight with the
might of fedral patronage on one hand and the
free unbought preference of the people on the
other, Arthur met his rout and
humiliation. Wherever Arthur has met
with success in the South it
has been through the favors of his office
holders, and because there was not free
ballot, and an honest count.
There is reason for qualification that the
corruptionists of Arkansas were forced to
the wall. 1t would be well for the country
if in every instance of these exhibits of un-
warranted interference the Something could
happen. The Republican party is seeing
the beginning of the end. Purchased deliga-
tons and purchased elections will not always
supply the dominant power in the land. 1t
is something in these corrupt days that in a
state like Arkansas that the push-pin master
of business politics has met with defeat.

CURRENT COMMENT,

SOME parties are on visit to Washington upon
mission of light, which must be one of sweet
ness also, if they can illumine the dark places of
that sinful town. These missionaries, however.
are in the disguise Of an electric light company
who are endeavoring to impress the susceptible
public with superior article stored up in their
batteries. Last week, at an altitude of $40 feet
ten of these new lamps were placed on the Wash
ington monument, six lamps on the Smithsonian
institute, 169 feet high, and twelve lamps on the
dome of the Capitol, 392 feet high. The capacity
of each lamp is rated at 1000 candles. The light
from the monument in the immediate neighbor-
hood was inconsiderable, but mile away it was
so great that there difficulty in reading the
face of watch. At that, and even greater
distance, shadows were distinctly cast, and the

SEND FOR SIBERIAN.

Pulling the nose an assault upon the "em-
unctory of the brain,'' is a Republican mode
of Furnishing colored voters at the South who
vote the Democratic ticket. Here is the evil
dence of this new mode of Republican tor
ture for political offences. Cornelius War
noch colored Democrat of Lynchburg, Va,
was one of the witnesses examined by Sena-
tor Sherman's subcommittee in the Danville
riot case, is reported by the committee as fol-
lows:
He became Democrat because his race in
their mass meetings would insist on nominating
men who were not competent to lead them. Had
he ever been assaulted for voting the Democratic
ticket? Yes, sir, frequently. He had had his
nose pulled, sir, forveting the Democratic ticket.
Both men and women had assaulted his nose,
sir.
This is a new mode of "Southern outrage"
that Senator Sherman should not let his
partisan ferocity overlook in making his re-
port on the Danville riot cases, even if per.
petrated on Democrat, guilty Of a skin not
colored like his own. Perhaps, however, the
great Senator may not feel called upon to
protest against assaults upon Democratic
noses, by nose-led Southern colored Republi-
pans3

New YORK city judge imposed the sentence
Williams, colored coachman, who assaulted
Miss Harvey, (who had engaged his services) for
the purpose of robbery. The lady resided in a
French fiat, and had in her employ as servant
Gertrude Ash, who connved with the scoundrally
coachman in the abduction and assaults upon her
mistress. The case was an aggravated one and
the penalty imposed was none too severe. Ii the
courts, as rule, made the criminal classes feel
the full power and vigor Of the law with uni
formity, the protection to community would be
much enhanced. The prevailing method, how
ever, is spasmodic, and where one scoundrel gets
his just deserts score dealt with lightly, and
soon return to prey upon society, more desperate
and vicious than before. The terror of the law
should be ever present.

Mr.. BLAINE rather boastfully states that
since he ceased to be a United States sena-
tor he has never been within the senate
chamber. In this respect his practice and
example are worthy. The habits which pre-
walls among ex-Senators and ex-Represent-
atives of lowering about the Capitol after
the end of their official relations there, is in
the nature of public conteppt, and pro
ductive of the worst elements of lobbyism.
The evil has grown so great that Congress is
scandalized by it, and in order to protect it
self from the raids of these unsavory gentry
undertakes to enforce rule to exclude them
in some part. There are improper men
enough who are in Congress without having
added to the number miscellaneous lot who
have been left out. If all Mr.. Blafne's
practices were like this one he might almost
attain the rank of a model citizen.

THE Boston papers have Edmunds- phobia,
and have it bad. To them he is in the nat

The Herald admonishes General Hawley that

So it says: ''Gen. Hawley is man of good
parts, but he should not let his shadow OBJ
struct the sunshine that plays about the head
of Edmunds'' As the truly good Mr.. Ed

where the hair ought to grow,'' this is pathos
and bathos, and especially as Gen. Hawley is
casting no shadow in Mr.. Edmund's neigh
borhood or in the vicinity of any one
else. The same paper gives

ONE GOES UP. ONE GOES DOWN.


A late advice from Washington indicates
that gloom, like pail, is falling on Arthur's
presidential prospects. A great change is
alleged to have to have taken place. His re-
tainers, who for weeks have crowded the cor
ridors of the Arlington House, have de-
camped, having failed in satisfactorily boom
ing their chief. The name of Blaine, it is
alleged, is more frequently spoken of in
connection with the Presidency than any
other. Logan has substantially subsidized,
having been on dress parade about his time,
and the ''Plumed Knight is growing up
into dangerous proportions to the dlsmay of
the Acting President, who feels that he is to
stand in history only as the administrative
executor of an assassinated President, and
not to go on the roll of fame as an elected
President on his own account.
