The position we have taken is that the railroads should adjust their freights ac cording te the cost te them of their ser vice ; and upon this manner of adjustment Mr. Fink says that dressed beef would be charged a higher iste than the one It new pays. He says that dressed beef costs the railroads mere than twice as much te carry te the Tast, as it coats them te carry live lattle. The reason be gives Is that the refrigerator cars are much heavier than the stock cars, because of the mode of their construction and be cause of the large amount of ice carried in them te preserve the meat ; as the cost of carrying is according te the total weight carried, as well the dead weight as that which is charged for, it fellows that the additional dead weight of the refrigerator car, ever its contents of beef, must be added te the weight of the beef, te get the comparative weight of the dressed beef and live beef lead. In carrying cattle en the hoof, their waste weight ever their dressed weight is carried ; and In carrying dressed beef, the extra weight of the car and Its ice is carried; and we understand Mr. Fink te say that the total weightief the car and the lead of dressed beef Us uble that of the car and lead of live beef . This being the fact, it seems clear enough that the railroad company would be war ranted in charg'np twice as much per pound for carrying dressed beef as for car rying cattle. And there Is an additional clement of cost In carrying the dressed beef in the fact that no return lead Is taken In the refrigerator cars, which arc hauled back empty te the West; while the live stock cars can be used fercanying merchandise back. This of course is an important consideration te fie carrier in estimating the cost of the business. Upen Commissioner Fink's statement the dressed beef dealers seem te be the fa vored parties. He says the respective rates have been made, at the suggestion origin ally of Frank Thomsen, of the Fennsyl vanla railroad, upon the basis of the deliv ery of each kind of meat into the Eastern market at the same proportionate price, se that neither industry would have any ad van tage ever the ether. He says the method is necessary because there can be no exact determination of ene figure of relative cost te the different railroads engaged in the carrying business, of carrying dressed and live beef. The cost te different railroads in each case differs according te their respective facilities or handling the different kinds of freight ; and Mr. Fink, In his capacity as commission er te Or the freight charges for all the reads, finds himself unable te make a sat isfactory rate te all of them based en the question of cost. He, therefore, justifies a rate fixed according te what eacli industry can pay without Injury te its trade by the competition of the ether. As we have said heretofeio, this Is the exercise of a legislative function by the railroads which can scarcely be justified. If dressed beef costs mero te carry than live beef, the industry suffers under a nat ural disadvantage, which it Is net the place of the common carrier te correct; and it is hardly ene which the leg- ilature would desire te correct. The cheap Importation of "Western killed beet is net an advantage te the Lastern butcher, certainly; and it is net an advant age te the Eastern public,either,te furnish it A "Western killed dressed beef unless it can be furnished cheaper than beef slaughtered here. It Is net as wholesome a meat all the year round. The refrigeration does net benefit it. The fresher the beef Is the bet ter it Is; net only Is it less likely te be tainted but it is mero tender and juicy. It is net te be supposed that the legisla tures of the states en the Atlantic border t desire te put the farmers and butchers of Jtbeir own states at an unnatural disadvau r;.Mge in cuinpeungrer me supply ei me ,'ilkeme market with beef.

Many brainy Irishmen, devoted te their country, have heretofore bet n com cem pelled te restrain their patriotic impulses, because they weie tee peer te occupy a parliamentary seat, no salary being at tached thereto. The parliamentary fund, gathered together from all soils where Irish feet have trodden, enable these men te lend their tlme and talents without ex ex erbitant personal sacrifice te the cause they have se dearly at herl. The effects of this movement are apparent in the eighty-slx trained Irish monitors of Parlia ment who arc new pledged te vote and act with Parnell en even measure affecting Ireland's interests.

Thosswlie have been maintaining that high license would be an Intemperance cure-all will doubtless have their ejes opened by the opinion of llev. J. K. Funk, D. ., editor of the ew Yerk ImVc. He declares high license no remedy. In Lin coln, Xeb., when there was no license, there were only 1" saloons. Xew there ate 3 saloons, paying each $1,000 aunually. The same was true of Chicago and of the whole state of Illinois and throughout the West generally, wherever the experiment has been fairly tried. Dr. Funk claims that the saloons which would be closed by the measure were these that did the least harm. He notes the fact that when Jehn 13. Geuglt commenced his work in the temperance cause -I I years age there were 59,000,000 gallons of liquor consumed in this country, a per capita allowance of three gallons. In tiie jcar ending June 30, 1SS4, there were 700,000,000 gallons consumed, a per capita allowance of 12 gallons.
