FOREIGN COMMERCE AND NAILS.

The approach of the American International
Congress has led "The Independent to obtain
interesting letters from many prominent men
regarding the subjects to be considered by that
body. With great deal of diversity on many
points, the letters generally agree that Gov

will have to be given before the needful mail
facilities can he secured and the carrying trade
restored to American bottoms. Just here there
nav be some confusion of thought. Frequent
and direct mail facilities are unqueStionably
the essential prerequisite, if it is desired to
yitaIize and expand the trade OF this country
with the nations of Central and South America.
But it is not equally clear that the nationality
Of the ships in which cargOes are transported is
of essential importance, and there are many
reasons for separating the two kinds of service
in discussion.
1t is a disgrace to the Nation that it is de-
pendent upon British, German or French sub
sides for the transportation Of its official, or
commercial letters to and from many foreign
countries The disgrace is the greater because,
after Congress had deliberately decided upon
a more progressive policy and had appropriated
half q million for improvement OF the service,
a single official of the late Administration was
suffered to set aside an act of Congress, TO
thwart the desires of the people and especially
of those concerned in foreign commerce, and
to humliate the Nation by the niggardly mean
ness Of arrangements made or attempted. 1t
seemed to be the unconceaed purpose of these
arrangements to steal part of the benefits for
which ether nations had paid and were paying
literally.
Quick frequent and direct transportation Of
mails between the United States and fore On
ports has become absolutely essential if the
merchants and manufacturers of this country
are to have any chance to extend their trade in
competition with producers and dealers of
other countries. So long as mails must 60

THE REETHOYEN MEMORIAL.

The Tribune of yesterday brought information
of plan to enable the music-lovers Of New ork
10 testify their admiration for the genius OF beet
hoven by contributing TO the fund now ralslng III
Germany under distinguished auspices for the
preservation of the house in which the master
musician Of this century was born. The house
has already been purchased by committee IN
Bonn, and it is the intention of the Beethoven
House Society" 10 restore it, make it the reposl-
tory OF manuscripts, pictures, busts and other
relies of Beethoven, and TO contribute to the per-
petuation of his fame by appropriate literary pub
LEGATIONS.
To state tile purposes Of such n society makes
unnecessary either argument or appeal. Snch pur-
poses are the fruits OF lovely sentiment whose
value as factor in the cultivation OF art is 1eiV
even II not confessed in an age like ours whlch
is dominated by reason rather than emoton.
There is ground to fear that young as the ART oil
music isl compared with the other arts, 1t has al
ready reached period of decadence. The crying
need Of to-day, not in the musical art alone, put
in all the arts is affection. Critical analysis can
not supply this, nor is its absence made good by
admiration and aduation shOwered upon the mere
executant and interpreter. Love should be given
10 the art, instead of being reserved exclusively
for the artist
The influences which go out from such institu-
tions as the Mozarteum in Salzburg, the Goethe
House in Frankfort, and the Dueren House In
Nuremberg Ito mention only three foundations ike
that projected for Bonn, are all sweet, gentle,
amiable and refining. They make for the amello-
ration of manners and the promotion of art-feel-
ing. They beget the love which is the one thing
needful By gracious dispensation these in
fuences are not confined to the community that
chances to be the guardian Of the memorial but
can be enjoyed by all who participate in its crea-
tion.
Messrs. Steinway and Thomas have performed
graceful duty in projecting the concert for the
benefit Of the Beethoven House It's patronage
ought to be generous, for, in great measure, IL
will fix a standard by which the extent and sim
certify of New-York's musical culture may pc esti-

"Tbe Court Circular or in the picturesque
society columns Of "The Morning Post" If
Henry James's Daisy Miller was drawn from
life so too was Thackerays Becky Sharp. But
it is more to the purpose to point out that the
great majority of the people Of the United
States have no taste for notoriety. They go
ahead from day to day quietly discbarging their
duties, taking no more thought OF it than OF
last years birds nests. Those who jump from
high bridges or swim through perilous rapids
or get married at county fairs, and all other
seekers after notoriety by whatever names they
may be called, constitute but an insignificant
minority. Consequently, when The Intelligent
Foreigner talks of a love of notoriety as char
acterizing the American Nation-well, she IS
true to the reputation which The Intelligent
Foreigner has established. In other words
she is true to the untruth.

At New-York, deducting twice the value OF STOCKS
sold, remaining exchanges for September have peen
1872 per cent larger than last year; at Boston,
Philadelphia and Chicago for three weeks OF
September the gain over last year has been Al per
cent, and at all other cities 6.1 per cent. The
actual consumption of iron has significance. and
while the output of pig is fully IA per cent larger
than year ago, il is now more fully covered
than usual by current demand. There has also
been an increase during the past week In dealings
in raw wool, especially in Boston, but to some
extent here and at Philadelphia, indicating some
increase in the confidence Of manufacturers re-
specting the future market for goods.
With all this activity in business the stock
market has not moved since September more than
20 cents per 81 90 up or down. Last week IL rose
on the WHOLE exclusive Of the Trust stocks, 20
cents per share, not quite enough to pay Two
brokers charges. Sugar Trust has had long-an-
ticipated slump, and the sales, exceeding 100000
shares within few weeks, have been so large
that the decline can hardly be attributed TO short
operations With Congress about TO assemble, and
sugar consumption decreasing, there is not much
occasion to hunt further for the cause OF the
slump.

took hold Of the matter with right goodwill and
a substantial sum was quickly subscribed The
alumni and students have the hearty SYM
