under the head of grangers and southwesterns,
everything is materially lower than on Satur-
day. The market turned upon the gravity OF
the situation abroad and further trouble over
rates in the west, and although there was a
confident feeling at the opening, selling soon
began, and the declines which were then in
augurated ceased only with the close OF bust
ness. Early rumors about the street from
Paris and London stated that the Socete des
Metaux had stopped payment and that the
Compton Escompte had been placed In the
hands Of receiver, and that copper had had
marked fall since Saturday. These stories met
with feeble denial, but were substantially
corroborated before the decline had made much
Roadway and while II was later stated that the
Compton d Escompte was meeting all its obi
cations, the feeling was very respondent
Stories OF the cutting OF rates by Rock Island
were the principal elements OF discord in the
dispatches from the west, but this was supple
mented by free selling of all western stocks

New YORK, March 16.-The arrivals of Florida
oranges to-day, Saturday, are very light from
the fact that the Savannah steamer due this
morning has not yet arrived this afternoon,
being delayed by a storm. This is to be regetted,
as it will make Mondays receipts much heavier,
and may possibly have a depressing effect on
prices; yet IN view of the small quantity still to
come forward. receipts from this time will be
held firm at private sale. Three dollars a box
is all that is obtainable to-day for fancy nit.
For selected sizes this price may be exceeded.

russets, in lines, So 80; selected sizes, S. IS.
Seedess oranges will bring from 81 00G15 90 per

etables were delayed. as they were in special
demand to-day. Fancy peas bringing 81 600

The oflicc-scekers are here; they are
here in abundance. They throng the
hotel lobbics, and are on the alert about
the Departments in communion with
those who they think may aid in the
advancement of their prospects They
are not Il bad looking lot of men, keen,
active and energetic They know what
they want-most of them--and if they
do not get it, it will not be for want of
effort. ~
The old maxim that the Office should
seek tho man and not the man the
office is a very pretty one and one which
If esteemed by all alike, would be adj
mirable in practice. but, unfortunately
it is not 50 esteemed. II is impossible
that it~sbould be so. The country istoo
big for such rule to work. II is i'm
possible that the President should know
who is the best man 10 be made collcc.
Tor Of any one of half an hundred
ports, or postmaster of any. one of a
thousand cities. The case is the same
with all other Presidential offices, ana
with those which are made by heads of
departments. AS q consequence, some
one must convey to the appointing
power the information needed. The
decent man--thc one lit for oifice-who
has worked hard for his party inaby
locality is entitled to recognition 1t is
proper that he and his friends should
present the facts in the CASE This is
called office seeking. So it is, but it's
legitimate in country as big as this.
The office will never seek the right man
in Podunk unless the right man in
Podunk, or his friends, gives the name.
0ffice may properly be allowed to deck
the man when a Cabinet portfolio is in
question, because. men prominent
!, enough to merit such place are known
TO the President, but very near the
9 Cabinet the applicability of the maxim
ends. t,s 49,. 49, - e.
So il is that there is no reason TO speak
disparagingly of the solcalled office,
seekers now in Washington. Many OF
the throng here are not working fol
themselves. but for good men at home.
Many.Yho are, working fog themselves
ares the men most deserving in every
way of the places they seek. ~

After fniehing his remarks to his class he

only way to. become truly great and sue
cessful 70 life. es"Every man is cndeavoring
too struggle upward Never wish harm
and bad luck to others, for II will be sure to
revert TO Yourself Humility is really the
stepping-stone to greatness. The boy
who Is eager to see companion make o
