Certain curious features in regard to
(lie newspaper business luivc been
pointed out in Rowfi.l, & (V Dine
toiv. Among ibe indications of coin,
mereial depieesiou la.-t year were ijicat
reductions in circulation of nil but lead
ing papers. Many reductions in size,
many changes in proprietorship and sev
eral su.-penj.ions, while on thu other
band, tbo actual iucrease in the num
ber printed has exceeded any .since the
establishment of tbo Directory sis years
ago. Tbo total of S.'l IS shows an in
crease of 5iJ4 over hist year, of 1,057
over J ST-i, of 1,120 over 1S72, and of
1,'JlO over 1871. The States of
Florida, Rhode Island, and Ttncessce
issue exactly the eatuo number of news
papers as last year the diminuation is
iu Arkansas, Califonia, Kausas and
the territories. In all other Sinic?
there is au increase, In Indiana it
comes to as much as 81; in Illinois,
51; iu Jowa 55; Missouri, 4, Penn
sylvania, 3S; Nw York, :J1; mil to
smaller numbers in all tbo oehor States
till we come to Alabanic, where only
one new paper was issued.
Itei'3stb Statistics.
The Washington corresp ondence of
the New York Tint" shows that there
has been a considerable filing off ol
both imports aul exports for the last
ten mouths as compiled with the cor
ic-pouditig peiiod of the Ikcal year
174:
The latter period included July
August aul September, before the
panic. Sumo of the iisa.s ol difference
are curious as well as instructive. "e

and 31,100,000 moie of tea. In bides
ana skius wo have increased both our
imports and cxpons, just doubling the
latter In raw tiik there bis been n
slight increase, aud a corresponding one
in silk manufactures imported. The
importation of wjtul has largely dimin
i.ihed of iron and steel and their
manufacture 812,500,000, or nearly
forty-five per cent. The exports of
these articles, on the other band, have
incrcasod fully tlydy-ihrce per cent.,
and now djual seven-eights the
imports. Curiously enough, the im
poitition of prceious stones bus in
creased by nearly two-thirds. Wool
and its manufactures also show a sii;;ht
increase. In exports tbo most notable
items of decrease are in brea 1st uff's, cot
ton, oil and tobacco, aud the most ro
niiikablo instance of iucrease is, of
course, gold.
The increase ia our export of iroa
steel manufactures is certainly a grati
fying feature.
A. convention is now iu sesiou iu
.Missouri charged with the duty of alter
ing amending nnd improving the con
stitution of that State. Among tbo ro
solutions recently offered was one de
claring that ail elections to bo held iu
that State rball be lira voce. Upon
this proposition an animated discussion
arofc those favoring the plan contended
that its adoption would restore the
purity and fairness of election, do away
with ballot-box stuffing; and other
election frauds, encourage political in
dependence, and develop in a fuller
degree the manhood of the citizen.
The argument of ibe opposition was,
that it was practically impossible to ap
ply this principle, especially ia cities
and largo towns, aud that even whore it
could bo applied, uo such results as
those stated by its friends would occur.
When the vote was taken the proposi
tion was defeated by twenty-two major
ity. This via voce plan has been sug
gested in moie than one State, but it
does not meet with the approbation of
the masses. They cling to the secret
ballot as the sheet ancboi of their politi
eal rights aud liberties, and demand
that the exercise of that right shall le
protected in a more perfect manner
tbau it is at the present time in some
States. If the Constitutional Convention
of Missouri rejected ths vi'cu rote-system
of voting, she can bedgo around the
ballot-box new safeguards against fraud
and rascality, and thus represent the
sentiment of the honest pooplo of all
parties in a proper manner. Philadel

THE SIOUX COMMISSION.
IN8TRUCTION8 FROM THE INTERIOR

Washington, Juno 10. Tbo follow

of laying before the Indians the wishes
of the government rceperting tbo de
sired cession of din Ulack Hills oountry
and their rights iu the Rig Horn
Mountain, and also to invbe them to a
grand council. The commissioners are
ei joined us to the necessity of great
care iu the eiiterprctation ol their inter

awakenig any suspicion ou the part ol
the Indians that they nre not fairly re
ported The commissioners nro ulso
leminded that they are appointed to
represent the Iudiaus and their in

THE WESTERN CHOI'S.
THE KANSAS GRAIN IN Fl'LENWn CON
1'ITION.
Kansas City, Juno 20. From par
ties just returned, as well as from letters
and telegrams received, it appears that
the crop prospects in Kansas were never
known to bo as good as now. Large
farmers iu the western portion of the
Stale arc telegraphing hero for harvest
hands, aud complain that they cannot
cct men enough to harvest. 1 he har
vesting in Southern Kausas has com
menced, and the average is immense.
St mo of the comparatively r.ew counties
claim a uulliou bushels of wl eat, and a
rough cstiirato of wheat for tbo south
western part of the State is four or live
million bushels. This enormous amount
will be more than duplicated ia the
West and other sections. The great
fear is that hands eiroush canuot be ob
tained to harvest the crop. Spec
d'patches from ceutral Missouri, as
well as from other parts outside the
grasshopper belt, aie equally encourag
ing. In the giasshopper belt au cnor
mous average ol com has beeo planted
more by titty per ccut. than any rrevi
ous year, and the freiiucnt rains aud hot
sunny days which have prevailed for a
week or more have raised high hopes of
a big corn crop.
St. Louis June 19 Reports fr.m all
parts of Southern XebrasLa say that the
grasshopper ravages have been exagger
ated. They have left that part of the
state, or, it any remain, they are doin
very li'ilo damage. Those which came
from Kansas aud Missouri made but a
brief stay, aud did but little injury
Wheat and other small grain will har
vest from a half to a whole crop, and
the corn ciop will bo lull. Where
coin and other graiu are seriously in
jured the laimevs are replautitig, aud
expi ct fine crops.
Washington, June IS' Information
has bceu received here to the effect
that tho value of the cattle stolen from
Texas by tho Mexicau raiders since
January 1 is over 82,000,000. There
are over 8,0()0 rauchcios on our side of
(he Rio Grando who have come over
from Mexico aud settled iu Texas and
are iu sympathy with I ho raiders, and
thcJTexas authoiitios areas much in
cused against tbeoi that it is feared an
tff'oit will be made to drive them into
Mexico, but the United States authori
ths there willcudeavor to prevent such
action, as it would only place them in
open hostility to the people of Texas
and probably result in an increase of
the depredations in that State.
Detroit, Juno 19 A lire in Grand
Rapids this afternoon destroyed the en
tire business portion of West Rridge
street, besides many other buildings and
involving a loss of about 150,000. A
heavy galo was blowing at the time.
The flames spread eastward, eousumin;;
tho Hovcy, Turner, Martin aud Hub
bard blocks. About sixty buildings
(mostly two story) were burned, the
lower stories being occupied for busi
ness purposes and the upper by families.
The progress of the flames was so rapid
that the occupants ol the houses bad
barely time to escape with their Uvea,
saving nothing else. The heaviest'
losers are Lewis Martin. Scribner Bros.

Rahimoro, June 10. In the
Orphaus' Couit to-day, iu tho case of
Paul Schoeppe on a petition to revoke
the probate of a will of Mias Maria M.
Steiuecke, deceased, and letters testa
mentary grauted thereunder, upon the
ground ol au alleged marriage at Car
lisle, Pa., between die testatrix aud
Seboeppe, entitling him to bor entire
estate, Judge Ingles delivered the
opinion of the court that the petitioner
had failed to prove the marriage al
leged, aud that the documents produced
by him to establish it were forged.
After the death of Miss Steiuecke, iu
Jamary, I860, Paul Schoeppe was in
dicted, triod and convicted on a charge
ot causiug ber death by prussio acid at
Carlisle, Fa, Afterward under a special
act ot the Pennsylvania Legislature, be
was granted a new trial, which resulted
in bis acquittal. Schoeppe is now serv
ing a term in the Illinois State Prison
at Joliet, having been convicted in Chi
