New York stock Market.

New YORK, October 23.-Government
bonds dull and steady.
The sIock market, until the last hour,
presented the same general features
that it has for several days past. The
opening was firm to strong, the first
prices showing advances over the clos
ing figures of last evening ranging from
e 70 g generally, while New England
and Union Pacific were each up Is.
Trading was quiet, the only features
being weakness in the Union Pacific
and strength in Jersey Central and
Louisville q Nashville. The general
market was heavy and dull, and so
conti1 ued until the afternoon, when a
break occurred in Pacific Mail. There
was then some improvement in prices.
which in the last hour became decided.
There was an upward movement over
the whole list, and the early losses were
regsined in almost every case, the mar
ket closing strong at or near the best
figures of the day.

The Railroad Commission.

There is petition in circulation in
this city, and being largely signed by
the business men, citizens, merchants,
millmen and lumbermen of this Sec
ton to be presented to the General
Assembly of the State, asking their
careful consideration before passing
a railroad commission bill. From
conversing with many of the business
men, those most interested in ship
ping, we think we speak their senti-
ments when we say they are opposed
to the creation of a railroad commits
sion. 1t is true, many of them de-
sire to see reduction in the passen-
ger tariff, bui the railroad at this
point has given the millmen rates
that has euabled them to compete
with mills at Beaumont, Orange and
other points, that are much nearer
the great lumber markets. If any
measure should be adopted looking
to the equalization of tariffs on
mileage basis it would have the i'm
mediate effect of paralizing our ex-
tensive and increasing trade with
Texas. Our merchants are also get,
ting good freight rates and are will
ling to let we'll enough alone. Thus
it will be seen that the interests of
the people in our section are in ac-
cord with the railroad, and we sin
cerely hope that the matter will be
carefully considered.-Lake Charles
Echo.
If the railroad commission bill
now before the Legislature becomes
a law, it will impose a useless expense
of $12, 600 year on the tax payers
of the State. The proposed commits
sion is to be composed of three mem
bers who are to hold Office six years
at an annual salary Of $4,000; they
are to have clerk who will receive
81, 500 a year, and all travelling ex-
penses are to be paid by the State

Change.

Inls visible world IS only form
and an appearance. God has written
decay on all around US: on the hills,
which are everlasting only in poetry,
their outlines changing within the
memory of man; on the sea-coast,
fringed with shingle. Look at it re-
ceding from our white cliffs; its houn-
diaries are not what they were. This
law is engraven on our frames. Even
in the infant the progress of dissolu-
ton has visibly begun. The princi-
pie of development is at work, and
development is but the necessary step
toward decay. There is al Force at
work in everything, call it what you
will-Iife or Death: it is reproduction
out of decay. The outward form is
in a perpetual fux and change.
We stand amidst the ruins of other
days, and as they moulder before our
eyes they tellus Of generations which
have mouldered before them, and of
nations which have crossed the thea
ter Of life and have disappeared
Wejoin in the gladness of the baptism,
and the years roll on SO rapidly that
we are almost startled to find our
selves standing at the wedding. But
pass on few years more, and the
young heart for which there was so
much gladness in the future has had
its springs dried up. He belongs to
generation which has passed, and
they among whom he fingers feel as
if he had lived too long; and then he
drops silently into the grave to make
way for others. One of our deepest
thinkers man of profoundest OBJ
servation, who thought by means of
a boundless heart-has told us, in
words trite and familiar to us all,
Cali the worlds a stage,
And all the men aud women merely players:
They have their exits and their entrances
And one man in his time plays many parts"
Things are passing; our friends are
dropping off from us; strength is
giving way; our relish for earth is 60
ing, and the world no longer wears to
our hearts the radiance that once it
wore. We have the same sky above
us and the same scenes around us;
but the freshness that our hearts ex-
tracted from everything in boyhood,
and the glory that seemed to rest
once On earth and life, have faded
away forever: sad and gloomy truths
to the man who is going down to the
grave with his work undone; not sad
to the Christian, but rousing, excit-
ing, invigorating. If it be the eleventh
hour, we have no time for folding Of
the hands-we will work the faster.-
Through the changefulness of life;
through the solemn tolling of the
bell of time which tells us that anoth-
er, and another, and another are gone
before us; through the noiseless rush
of world which is going down with
gigantic footsteps into nothingness,
let not the Christian slack his hand
from work, for he that doeth the will
OF God may defy hell itself to quench
his immortality.-F. w. Robertson.
