Of $19s,s21, ,249. At the end Of June,

$113, 600, making a total OF

increase OF $34,643, 571. 1t is clear,
therefore, that gold is neither being

All eggs received in this country from
foreign ports are known as "pickled"
eggs, and are packed in cases Of fifty
dozen each. They are treated to some
process previous to their shipment by
which their appearance OF freshness is
partially preserved until they are re-
ceived and put on the market at New
York. Germany is at present the
largest shipper OF eggs to this country,
and the German eggs are superior 10Th
in size and flavor to any other foreign
eggs received. The Danish eggs, which
are received in less quantities than the
German, are looked on with very little
favor by dealers on account OF their
small size. The number of eggs, foreign
and domestic, consumed in New York,
is about two millions each dav.

The Guardian, chief of English relig-
ious newspapers, can only describe the
series of papers in the Pail Mall Ga
zette as q gross violation Of public de-
cency. .'t'We accept the EDITORS assur-
ance as to the excellence Of his mo-
tive" says the Guardian. ''It is the
common plea OF those who claim the
right to do evil that good may come.
But the truth OF the revelations is
neatly nothing to the purpose. What
may berighty said in a court Of jus
tice might not be rightly said in the
family That these papers will have
abundant and permanent results is
probable enough; but they will be
found in inagi.iations polluted, and
in thoughts turned to a subject which,
as experience shows but to surely, has
FOR many minds an unexpected and

The Journ. and Arrival in New York.

On Wednesday, hefuneral car, drawn by
six black horses with their morning trap
pings, moved to the state street side OF the
capitol. Gen. Hancock, mounted upon
black charger from West point, and fol-
lowed by his staff, approached the capitol,
as also did Gen. Farnsworth and staff.
Gov. Hill and staff had gathered at the cap
ital and were in waiting.
The sons OF Gen. Grant and their colnpan.
ions were driven to the depot where the
Hancock and D. M. Hendrick were in
charge. Guns doomed while the remains
were being placed in the car ''Woodlawn,' y
and the bells tolle8 slowly. The committee
from New York entered their cars, Gen.
Hancock and staff were aboard, the regu-
lars were quartered, and the great train
started. The remains were viewed III AL
bany by 77,2OO persons. The train was
constituted and occupied as follows:
First, the locomotive; second, the baggage
car third, funeral car 'Woodlawn;' fourth,
car containing the sons OF the general, with
DR.. Rev. Newman and DR.. Douglas; fifth
Gen. Hancock and staff; sixth Coy. Hill
and staff, and the committees OF the house
and senate, twenty-five in number: seventh
and eighth, the New York committee OF one
hundred; ninth, the car Of public infOrnln-
tou; tenth and eleventh, the regulars under
the command ofCol. Beck and Maj: Brown.
On the roofs OF the houses in the vicinity
hundreds witnessed the start, and as the
black train runbled across the long bridge
Of the Hudson it was between two dense
lines OF people who filledxthe footpath on
either side. There was no clang OF bells, no
scream OF whistle; only the dull, rumble OF
the wheels beneath the memorable train.

All the employees OF the New York Central
Railroad company who received their pay
ut Poughkeepsie were drawn up beside a
work train OF the road at that station, and
stood with uncovered heads as the train
passed. A long train OF fat cars, filled with
sightseers, stood upon the side track. The

there were dark fringes OF human figures,
