A Mohammedan Id en- of Records.
The idea that record is kept in heaven of
mans conduct, his sins being entered on
one page and his virtues and his benevolent
actions on the page opposite originated, l
believe, with Mohammed. and is unworthy
or an intelligent Christian. My idea is, that
the balance which tells in favor of a mans
character is the preponderance of his good
over his evil inclinatons, and that this pre-
ponderance is not determined by the num-
Der of his sins and of his merits.
LII may venture to offer advice on so se-
rious subject and one apparently so far
removed from that of finance, it is not to
trust to the expectation that even single
sin will be nullifed by hundreds of good
deeds The sin may result from a predom1-
nant disposition. whereas the opposite acts
may be only Fictitious and hypocritical.
Habit, it is well said, is second nature, and
it is a balance of good habits that we ought
to aim at, and not merely balance of good
deeds

SAN FRANCISCO MARKETS
The STATE OF TRADR.

SAN Francisco, May 25.-The fruit market
was active this morning. Oranges, although
in large receipt, enjoy a good demand for
strictly choice varieties, which are scarce
There are fev peaches in the market, but they
were OF an interior quality. The dried fruit
market showed a slight improvement, with Q
better demand for pruncs and apricots.
The vegetable market was active at lower
prices. Owing TO excessive receipts, both new
onions and new potatoes are IN oversupply, and
the feeling is much weaker.
The market for dairy produce is without any
material change The downward tendency in
values for butter continues.
