There seems to be much distress pre
vailing among the laboring classes lu
tho coal and Iron legions. Nearly all
tho irou furnaces and foundries aro
either Idle or working only ou partial
time, and this, together with tho gen
eral depression ot trado, having reduc
ed tho cousurapllon of coal, thero is
very little doiug at tho collieries, in
this usually busy season. Thousands aro
In Idleness without any means of obtain
ing work, aud the distress is very great.
Tho Mayor of Scranton writes to a con
toiiiporary that all the means of relief
In that city aro exhausted, and ho fears,
as winter advances, that the suffering
will become extiemo.
A VashIngton dispatch to tho New
York Suu, dated December 2nd, says:
''There ls.nlmcmst a unanimous feeling
ofdUliko and hostilhy toward Grant
among lUfl Republican Congressmen
who are dallj' arriving here, and If he
should find himself without any party
this winter he need not be surprised.
Tho causes of re hellion are numer
ous, but are chiefly .babed upon his no
toriously friendly reunions with Boss
Shepherd and Mullett. The manner In
which ho seconds these tw individuals
in their various schemes Is galling in
the extreme to those who aro conversant
-with the Shepherd and Mullett Rings.
There in trouble uhead for the Ullt.1 OU
horseback."
Tho Philadelphia Ledger says, "It Is
distressing to hear, of tho numerous
failures reported In commercial walk's,
but thero Is no one need bo troubled by
tlio occasional failures chronicled by tho
newspapers, as they aro usual nt this
season of they ear, ami were expected to
bo uumcious this fall In conscn.ucr.co of
last year'B panic. When buskics Is
conducted on such a sound barjls as at
present, for It Is mainly for cash or on
very shoit credit, It Is uuju.st to predict
financial trouble. There Is no danger
probable. Tho volume, of business may
bo small, but It Is safe. Only tho Ig
norant expected ar,y present Increase of
prosperity In ccuscquence of tho elec
tions, and therefore thero' Is every rea
son to feel satisfied with tho steady
though slow advanco of trade.
Gov. Allen sent I1I3 annual message
to the Ohio Legislature ou Tuesday last.
It is a model ot brevity. IIo renews his
recommodatlons that tho expenditures
of tho State Government should bo re
duced down to the very last dollar com
patible with the maintenance of tho
public credit and the efficient working
of tho several departments. Iu tho
midst of tho existing financial distress,
ho says, when so mauy men nro out of
employment, and wages overy where re
duced, there aro special reasons for re
trenchment. Last year the tax levy
was reduced $474,000. The taxable
valuations in Ohio, as shown by tho
grand duplicate of 1874,. are: Ileal and
personal property, $1,G30,S70;324,
which is a net increase over tho valu
ations of 1873 ot $13,104,085, an ex
hibit which tho Governor thinks is a
rcmarkablo indication of the rapid de
velopement of the material resources of
the State, when tho general stagnation
ot business during the past year is con
sidered. In calling attention to tho
propriety of considering whether the
compensation of county officers is not
disproportionate to tho salaries of,other
public officers, and of persons in pri
vate life, Gov. allien expresses senti
ments that will doubtless meet with
general approval. He saya: "Public
servants should be reasonably compen
sated: but salaiies and fees should not
be so high as to make tho getting of
office a profession, and to enablo candi
dates and applicants to buy their way
to public places." All of which is sound,
and worthy of tho statesman from
whom it proceeds.
William F. Havemeyer, Jayor of
New York, died suddeuly Monday ot
apoplexy. lie was the son ot William
Havemeyer, a German, who came to
H1I3 country, In 1708. He was born In
Now York Feburary 12, 1801. He was
educated at Columbia College, wltere ho
graduate in 1824, and five years there
after lie commenced business as a su-
gar'rt finer. Ho retired with a compe
tency in ,1813, and In 1844 was chosen
a Presidontal elector on tho Democratic
ticket, In 1845 he was elected Mayor
of New York. Tim term of office was
then one year ond Jiiyor Havemeyer
declined a renomlnatlon. In 1848,
however, ho was again elected, but
again refused a renominatlon. Iu 1810
Mr. Havemeyer. was at tho head ot tho
Commissioners on Emigration, appoin
ted under a law designed to prevent the
swindling of immigrants ou their ar
rival at New York. Mr, Havemeyer
acted with tho Democratic party until
the Tweed gang usurped tho name of
that organization, wneu ho revolted
against their rule and becamo chair
man of the famous Committee of Seven
ty. whose labors dually resulted In tho
overthrow of Tweed and his con
federates. Mr. Havemeyer was npral
nated Jayor of tho city by the Reform
associations and the Republican party
against Abraham R. Lawrence, tho
Tammany Uall candidate, and Jus
O'Brien, of the Apollo Hall Democracy
Havemeyer was elected over Lawrence,
by a plurality of C000 votes. Durii g
his lato admiusltratlon of the office
Mayor Havemeyer seems to, have In
tensified the hatred felt for him by the
lower class of politicians, aud lias, at
the same time, lost tho support ot those
who aro honestly striving to secure good
government. His honorable character
has never been impeached, aud yet ho
nominated mid forced tho appointment
of some of the worst men In New Y'prk
to such offices as that of Police Com
missioner, An effort was made during
tho present year to secure his removal
from office by Governor Dlx, hut that
official, tf or a full investigation, con
tented himself with an expression oY
disapproval of tho Mayor's conduct.
