Jen steadily falling for some two years, until Inyears n w w foeto come
and there la no Present sign or the ces
sfltlen of thelr drooping Btate. Jnst new
there are some people who think that the
bottom has been reached, Just as there
have been such opinions at every Btep of
the down grade of the past two years
With nearly every ene the wish Is father
te the thought, and as a steady run of less
is net an ngreoable oxperlence, the suf
ferers are excusable for hoping for a
ehange In the tide upon very Mwsy
grounds. It is certain that the present
depression In trade Is'net going te con cen con
tlniie for evor ; but whlle the turn in
the lane la bound te ceme seme time,
there is no geed reason te expect that It
will ceme very seen. These periods
of trade depressions de net ceme
without cause or go without reasen ;
and the occasion of the present situation
does net seem ob3cure, though many
poeplo pretest that it is te them alto
gether unaccountable. There nre always
plenty of people who are never able te
account for the fact that things turn out
as they did net expect ; deeming their
Judgment u reproof, they conceive it mi mi
raculeusly strange that it should have
beeu disappointed. The fact Is, however,
that the Judgment of the great majority
of peeple is net very geed, while that of
no man Is perfect. The best opinions
may be set at naught by ndverse facts ;
and it has ceme te be a saying, much
respected for its truth by the wise
men who find themselves se often
disappointed, that nothing Is se
sure te hnppen as the unexpected."
Certainly no ene expected two years
age that by this time there would be n
depression in stock values of fifteen hun
dred or two thousand mllllonsef dollars;
nor would anyene have believed that
such a depression could come without a
financial crisis and universal bankrupt.
cy. But it has ceme,nnd the paper value
has gene and no considerable number of
financial shipwrecks have occurred. The

fcred by these who are able te stand
thorn, though no doubt there are a great
many financial edifices, of beautiful out
slde 'exterior, which nre as dry inside
as a Dead Sea apple, and which will
tumble down befere the rough
gale3 of the coming seasons. But
unexpected as Is the existing depres
slen in trade there is nothing strange in
it, sinca it is the naturu' consequence of
the undue stimulation Mint preceded it.
It is net caused by monetary stringency,
since meney is cheap. It is seeking in
vestment wherever It can safely place
itself te earn a modest Interest. A few
years age it would have scorned
such investment. Then it hungered for
greatreturns for usance rather than for
the safety of the principal, which was
assumed te bis secured where se great
profit; was premised. Capital seems te
be always Inclined te the two extremes
of undue caution and undue rash
ness. The happy medium is net
struck, because most capitalists have
thelr capital in their cash instead
of in thefrsense in their pockets Instead
of in their heads.
It is te this fact that our present con
dition is due. It has been discerned by
the Jay Goulds of the stock market, who
have watered the stocks of existing cor
porations, imd created ethers out of
wiud en the smallest foundation of solid
subjtnncp. Kallreads have been pre
jected everywhere, and built where they
were net needed and could net for
years earn their fixed charges by .their
legitimate business. They have been
built and equipped entirely out of meney
borrowed en thelr bends, which have
been made te yield a handsome surplus
for the profit of the construction com
mittee, organized by Us promoters, who
iiave besides received a bonus of the
bands and rich salaries as efllcers. lteads
already built that have been profitless
have been taken us potter's clay Inte the
hands of the speculators nnd combined
and manufactured and dressed up se as ,
te invite the sale of their stock of fancy'
prices. Devices have been exhausted te
give fictitious values te worthless prop
erties and the New Yeik stock exchange
Im3 given its aid te the swindles.
The result was a great business in
construction of all kinds ; which stimu
lated production of all kinds, nnd espe
cially of Iren manufacture, and when
the tail broke, business and manu
facturers of every kind fell flat en
its back along with stock speculation.
The stock market is said te be dependent
en the iron market ,nud Unit the state of
tlie latter is n true Index of the true con
dition of the former. And It Is true,
though it was the stock exaltation and
depression which exalted and depressed
the iron market, Instead of the Influence
proceeding from the latter. The iron
industry is largely dependent upon the
railroad Industry. The production of Iren
and Hteel has been enlarged te meet the
great railroad demand which has existed
In periods of railroad building activity.
The productive capacity of the country
Is greater thai) the demand in periods
of Inactivity in railroad construction
and maintenance, such as the present.
Every railroad in the land is economic
lug te its utmost stretch of pessibili
ty, because Its revenues are diminishing
and its dividend and interest amount is
net. In truth, there are but a dozen rail
roads In the country that are paying
dividends, and they are In greater dis
tress than the ethers, because they have
this additional prevision te make. The
Pennsylvania railroad managoment has
turned oil its spigot expondlture, and Is
trying hard tosteptho bunghele leakage.
Its purchasing department has almost lest
the recollection of the appoarance of a
requisition ; and a general holiday calm
" prevails In the oflke of the purchasing
agenta of all the railroad, who stay at
home and play with their wives and
babies, nnd gardens nnd furms.lf they are
Jucky enough te be blessed with these
bigullemqnta of a llfe of leisure.
;New, In this state of affairs, who can
see signs of a spoedy revival of business
briskness ? The men who have stolen
the money te build unneeded railroads,

Mennwhlle the country will have te
pled along slowly, until with Its natural

and demand will come about, In which

dollar is found betwixt every one In its
capital account, it cannot go wrong. If

writes te an Inquiring friend, who hap
pens te be a delf gate te the Republican
national convention from this state, that
if Arthur is net made the nominee of
his pnrty the probabilities are that it
will end in the dissolution of the lie
publican party. "The people," he
says, " are a Httle tired of that party,
and the tlosef discipline nnd the patriotic
sentiments that bound men te it are re
laxing every day. These who were at
its birth, and these who were engaged
in Us work duritu the days preceding the
rebellion, and during the dasef that
dreadful war, had sentiments and con cen con
victlens that persuaded thorn te de all
things, suffer all things for it as an act
of public duty , and men did go great
lengths and submit te thlugs tha. often
times were intolerable for the sake of
upholding that party in Its organization
and strengthening the bauds et the gov
ernment." The attorney general, how hew how
ever, recognizes that these tinv'.s are
past aud that a new generation has
ceme upon the scene, who will
net be satisfied with the methods
and the makeshifts that have sus
tained the Republican party in
power for the past few j ears. While
an observation of this fact leads him te
thosuppertot Arthur, it is noteworthy
that many of his party associates who
came te ether conclusienflld favor ether
candidates, give the 3am reasons for
their course and express the same ap
prehensiens for the future of their party.

The first session of the rcoend week's
convention of the Methodist Kplsoepal
conference was characterized by two im
pertant matters and a slde dobate upon
Mm question of tliue for oleeting the new
bishops. The momerlals from the several
annual conferences were presented and
appropriately referred te the standing
cemmittees. Uy the aotlen of the confer
ence last week a large number of papers
nre sent dlrcet te these committees with
out dobate. Dy the adoption ei this plan
the conleronco has saved itselt seme tlve
days of work, which the delegates aver
cau be dovetod te the consideration of
matters of mere gcneral Interest te the
public, aud of greater importance te the
church. AU papers considered of any
Importance cau find their way te the
standing oemmitteos, but it Is only stteh
as the committees, which number nearly
a hundred members each, may consider
vital that find their way befere tliei:encral
conference ler fiunl action.
uether important matter placed en
record was the quadrennial address of the
beard of bishops, presented through tueir
secretary, Bishop Harris. The report,
which was very full and completo, was a
presentation of the work porfermod during
the past four years. The present status
of the church, as per the report : Bishops,
11 ; presiding eilers, 477 ; ministers filling
pulpits. 12.023 : members. 1.7S0.090. an
increase, during the past quadrcuuium of
leS,77. The number of ehurches reported
was 1,711, and places of wershlpare belng
erected at the r.ue of two a day.
An allusion te tlie church taking a mere
deeided stau 1 upon the question of pro
hibition was greeted with applause An An
other very important matter was the
indirect recommendation that candidates
for the ministry be placed upon a longer
probation than that new existin. Tlie
present length of time ia two years.
A better plan than the old ene new In
use, for the retiring of aged and disabled
miuistcrF, was rocemmendod, aud the
unefilcial negotiations of ministers and
people about appointments was regarded
as ene of the perils te be avoided by the
church. The report closed with a recom
mendation te cnlarge the beard of bishops.
The fact that 0,000 copies of the addresa
were ordered printed was evidonce of it)
importance and inlluoneo upon the con cen con
ventien. An Kxcitlnc lime.
At the opening of the session it looked
as though the delegates were taking u
holiday or observiug " Ditte Monday," as
it is termed by the divines. Most of thorn
were slew in gathering, net mere thau
half the number belng present at the
opening religious sjrvice. liy 10 o'clock,
however, the seats were well lilted, and it
only needed n spjrk te set the convention
all ablaze. This was furnished by Rev.
Dr. Hattleld, formerly of Bread and Aroh
street church, Philadelphia, who upon a
motion te proceed te tlte oleotton of
bishops u Wednesday, whieh had been
urge.l by Chaplain McC tbe, te Btep the
electioneering and canvassing for this
sacred oihce said :
"Next te the reputation of my wife and
family, there is nothing in the world that
concerns me se clesely as the reputation of
the Mothedbt church. I was bem In the
church aud my affection for it is imperish
able. I am deeply impressed, therefore,
when I think hew seriously the reputation
of the chureh is threatened by what has
been said and dene in this matter of the
election of bishops. Thore was a time
when delegates would spend hours en
their knees aud then rise te cast a vete for
bishops. That time scorns te have given
way te a period of caucusing, leg rolling
and wire pulling. Cries of "erder."J
'Iho ces of hundreds of thousands of
Methodists in the United States are turned
te this body aud watching this very
matter. Let us proceed te it in a way that
will net shook and shame nil theso who
leve the church. Lit us take up the eloo eleo eloe

no opportunity te prolong tho3ooutrago the3ooutrago tho3eoutrago

Here loud cries of "Order" drowned Dr
Hatfield's veicj. "I will net ba interrup
ted," he said. "It is an eutrage that a
matt can hardly get out of a car bofero
seme ene oemes te him, and ."
"Order erder," rang in all parts of the
hall, while a score of delegatcs heutcd
for rcc ignition. Amid the confusion Dr.
lUldw.n, of Baltimore, succeeded in rais
ing tlie point that Dr. Hatileld was out of
erdei The chair ruled that he was net,
but that he still had the fleer Dr. Hat Hat
Held resumed, though nmld continued
interruption, and succeeded in saying : "I
declare that it is nu ttnscemly and ttubo ttube ttubo
ceming thing that mnmbers ei this body
eatt hardly set feet iu lVtiutylvauia he
fore they are button holed by delegatcs,
who suggest all kinds of combinations."
"I object te that relleotieu upon
Pennsylvania," criad Rev. Mr. Beylo, of
Pittsburg.
"That remark,-' said Dx. Hatileld,
ecernfully, turning in tlie direction of Mr.
Beylo, " was evtdeutly itttonded te be
witty, but It lacks force Thore was no
tolleetion made upon Pennsylvania."
A delcgate in the rear of the hall ob
jected that Dr. Hatfield's remarks wero
reflections upon mombers of the body
wtiheut partictilatUlug.
' I did net refer te that brother nor his
couferonce," said Dr Hatileld. 'But we
cannot afl'etd that our garments should
even smell of fire. Our reputation should
be that of Cesar's wife. 'I he less thore is
of the mutually tiekling method, the bat
ter let the oeuforonco and tlte church "
iome tuattored applause, mlngled with
a universal murmur, followed this Hjioceh.
lh. Olie, of the Wyoming conference, the
Pi jhibltien momber of the New Yerk
Liginlattire, rosumed the iber and tuid :
" This is the seventh general oeufcrcnoj I
Ime attetidcd, but It is the first time I
cver heard of such things ns Brethor Hat

kuowledge myself a inotnber of nbedy se

I pretest against such words as ' leg

Miss Lillian Whitney, daughter of 0.
J. Whltney, tnuslelan, theatrical manager
and proprietor of the Grand opera house,

The coaehman gavohisnnmeasNovilllo,
and he appeared upon the scoue about live

glib tengue aud superiicial polish lent the
color of truth te his assettien that he was
a high bem Englishman. He is about 118
years old.
JSiiss liiiiian was in tue uauit ei utKiug

lln.-illv her f.iimlv,H HllsnlcietlB WCrO
aroused and Novtllie was discharged. He
aud the girl, however, continued te meet
clandestinely up te a few days age. On
Friday afternoon last Lillian went out for
a walk and did net nturtt. She had just
received the monthly stijxmd allowed her
by her father as pin money, and the fears
of the family wete aroused that she had
llewn from the parental reef. I was
learued that Newlhe had disappeared
quietly a day or two befere.
Detcctives traced the girl and tlie oeach
matt te Teledo. Mr. Whitney chartered a
special trnln and retailed Teledo Saturday
night, but tee late, for the runaways had
disappeared after getting married, and
their wltercabjuts lias uet been uiscoveren.
Novillie declared te tlte probate itidge of

Edward Neviilie, baiottet. lie called upon
the prob.Ve judge after the hours for busi
ness, accompanied by Miss Whitney, aud
obtained the license. Friday night Jttstice
of the Pcace C. I. Scott was rented out
and performed the ceremony.
Te the justice, the coachman gravely
asserted that his estate in England was
tied up iu the chancery courts, and that he
should send the certtlleate of his marrlage
te the American minister at Londen, con
veying by his remarks the impression that
his marriage was necessary te assist him
te recover possesien of his property. Ne
bclief whatever is placed in his assertions.
Miss Whitney is an accomplished young
woman, and had everythiug that wealth
could bestow. Her mother is prostrated
with grief, and fears are entertained for
her lifeaud rcafeu. Itiselaimed by their
friends that Mies Whitney has been act
ing quecrly of late, and that her mind Is
deranged.
Novillie declares that he had obtained n
divorce from the woman who claims te be
his wife.

The ceremony took plaee en April 30,

Lecal Tobacne Market
Thore is no ehange te report in our
local market. Large quantities of '63
leaf are being received nt the waroheusoH,
where packing gees en as briskly as evor,
and reports continue fayorable as te the
condition of tlie tobacco rocelvod. It is
conceded that the paokers, who have been
for seme years past paying tee much for
the new leaf, have made a goad thing of
it this year, as prlces were gonerally low
aud the tobaeco gonerally geed.
The crop has been bought up quite
clesely ; iusome townships thore 1b scarce
ly a planting left in the hands of tlte
giower, and in noue of them is thore re
maining mere than ene fourth of tlie orep,
and this is belng rapidly ploked up by
buyers who were late in entering the
market. Theso who entered the Held
early nnd scen red the cream of the orep
are new chuckling evor tlie faet that thelr
competitors, who doerled the crop, in
hopes that they oeuld thus " bear " the
market and buy low, are new paying mere
for Bocettd rate goods than the early
buyers paid for first rate.
There oentltiuos te be a fair demand for
old leaf ; nbeut 200 eases or '81 and 200 of
