INCREASE OF EFFORTS.

The value Of our exports of domestic and
foreign merchandise during the first 4 months
ending Aug. u. 1891, after the new tariff, was
SS4O,5Ti ,3Ol and $40 323 larger than the
exports OF like merchandise for the CORE
spending II months Of the prior years, while
the old tariff was III force " hen they were of
the value Of S.9l ,4S3,91S. This increase OF
80 ,0Sl ,323 in our exports during the eleven
months ending Aug. 81, 1891, was nearly two
and one-half times greater than the annual
average increase Of exports Of merchandise
during the twenty years prior to 1891 which
was $40, ,150,425. During the same eleven
months of 1890 81 the value Of the exports Of
merchandise has exceeded the value OF the i'm
ports by the sum of S7T $50 1856. The impor-
tance Of this large excess of exports over i'm
ports viii be appreciated when it is compared
with the excess of exports Of the fiscal year
1890 when 1t was $6S,3lS,215. In 1889 the
balance of trade was against US, and the i'm
| ports exceeded the exports S21 .I30,2i1.
In 1883 the balance against US was still
larger. and the imports exceeded the exports
| Sos 022 601. 1t will be observed that the In
! crease IN the value of our exports of merchan-
| disc is large and very gratifying. This value
| of our exports for the eleven months ending
| Aug. 81, 1891, viz. SS40,51l 301, exceeds the
| value of the exports for any year in the his

AN OPINION granting q new trial in
the last hst-trimming case, In which the
government gained a victory, has been
fled in the United States Circuit Court
in Philadelphia by Judge Acheson. The
reason for granting the new trial Is that
publications in several Of the newspapers
were such as to preclude the possibility
Of fair trial, being calculated to pre-
iudice the minds of the jury. These
articles were. most of them dispatches
from Washington, or at least we're repre-
sented as such. This is a new departure
Of the courts In an effort to procure
something other than trayesty Of
justice from jury. The newspapers had
reviewed the claims OF the plaintiffs, pub
lished the evidence and stigmatized the
efforts OF the plaintiffs as "a scheme to
loot the Treasury An average juror un-
acquainted with the laws OF evidence and
unacoustomed to a careful discrimination
Of facts cannot read such things and still
render an impartial verdict.

Ignorant Of parliamentary law and Of

The best Speakers and those who had

and served other purposes rather than
the public interests
The Southern men did not get rich

honest. Neither Keifer nor Colfax we're

scrupulous and corrupt. Reed was not

sane fervor, as ignorant as It was harsh, to

since constitutional law existed. He mis-
counted and lied with the shamelessnes
Of Lord JefIreys, the infamous Judge 0
