XiATER NEWS ITEMS. The Hon. James D. Warren, Chair
man of the Now York Republican State Com
mittee, is the latest entry in the Senatorial race. His candidacy is regarded as taking President Arthur out of the controversy.
In an interview with ft newspaper cor
respondent at Albany, Gov. Cleveland is ro-
porteil as saying:
'I am not onzneed tn making Cabinets at the
present time, tins newspapers notwithstanding. Hv time Is eonttnnouslv brolten in tinon bv tho
visits of pnple from all parts of tho country. 1 am eUki to meet them, nnd I trust I meet thorn cord ally; but tho hints, tl) 3 suggestions, tho discussions, and the dtffcrenje ot opinion with which they and I am frequently credited
onstnatetn tac Drains ot ine nswspaper cor-n-spondents." "As, for oramplo. yonr reported intorvlew with Mr. Hendricks?" inteniosed the correspondent "Ah, as to
that." raid the Covornor, bis face
cloudinir as he spoke, th t was not
simplv false, it was mischievous and lnalicions. A man could go to sleep an 3 drciun of nothing more utterly, wholly false than that. I doubt, if two men, comparatively strangers, could ever give one another a more cordial greeting than was the greeting between Hendricks and myself. We spoke together for 'jarcly fifteen minutes, and our interoour.-o wis more than friendly it was warm and thoroughly cordial. I will not complain ) any pict
ure which any man cinches to draw ot me from personal observation. If the visit
ing correspondent chooses to say that I w3x a No. 3 hat and No. 10 shoes ho Is at liberty to do so. It is merely a question, nhen, whether
his course is or is not m good taste; but -when
words are put Into my mouth which I never uttered, and when I am accredited with statements which I never entertained, 1 must not a stop to it We are uot used to that sort of thing here. I will not permit it I lave not the
slightest disposition to cloud in mystery anything connected with my office, wi",h myself, or with mv future course. There need be no guessing about it If Senator This or Congressman That calls upon me it should furnish no occasion for any newspaper writer to build speculation upon speculation till he reaches some startling conclusion. Let him come to me; IH tell him frankly all 1 have said."

THE MARKETS
The report ot Hugh HcCuUooh. Secretary of the Treasury, Is of great length, but on several questions of vital interest to the financial and commercial world It Is exceedingly ntcratihK! From the mass of flgurcti submitted it it learned that the total revenues of the Governtttent for the last fiscal year weie :uh,bu,hi, aud that the expenditures Wore $2 w,9is.773i leaving a surplus of fS7,fl03,396, of which $5l,poo(X)0 has been applied xs bond redemption, Tho actual and estimated revenne for the tiajal year 1884-8 is $330,000,000 and the estimated expenditures arc tS9ii.000.ioa Of the revenues oxnrctcii Uurin
the ensuing year $ias,(ioi-,ooowlil come from customs taxes, and $115,000,000 from internal r;vonue. The ScorctRry estimates that the Trnaflury surplus in 1880 will lw not less than $50,000.000, and argues that something should be ttohe to relieve the people ot this unnecessary taxation. The most important chapter in the report in devoted to foreign traie and taxatloih After speaking of the remaikablc chanson ih thO Western States and Territories, and itssettlng that "to the rise in the value of lands iesuittng from the construction of railroads thowonaerf ul increase ot the national wealth is very largely attributable," he says: The condition of tho nianufaoturicg interestof the United States is similar in some respect to the condition of the ag ioultui .1 interest of the West in the early days. Waat the Wjstern larmers then needed was ft market i l their crops. What niknufacturerf now neec is A market for their surrlus manufactures, 'the n.l f.trmflRttntt nf mil- irfeat maliufuetilrinx In

and other branches of loaBUfactiire were uurtortaken, until New Engluld Was converted from maritime and commercial pursuits int. manufacturing It will bo recollected that Now England was opposed to t ic first protective tariffthat one of Mr. Whbsbir's great s pitches was a free-trade speech. It was not many yeai-s after the first cotton mills were erected in New England that the great iron industries of tho country began to be developed, and Pennsylvania soon became the great Iron manufacturing Stale Of the Union. Nor was it long before various kinds of manufactures came WW existence id most of the Northern and Western States. The demands of
the Government autlrg the late civil war for
the high tariff greatly stimulated production.
This also can be effected wi ihout prejudice to our export trade, ,., In regard to our Internal rei'eUU taxes, I have to say that, as these taxes, with the exMptltm of the tax upon whisky, ought not to be and will

We sold to Brazil last year various articles to the amount of $8,645,281. We bought ot her various kinds of her own ' productions to the amount of $50,265,889. leaving $41,620,828 at. the balance against us. Now, how is this larg-i bal.npn MnntrintAri? Not hv COld. but DV tilll Sale
of our farm products, for which there is a large
demand in Europe. It is our cotton, our wneat our potroic-um, our beef and pork, 'which c.n tut nmdnned more cheaply in the United
States thsr. anvwhere else, which create the sterling exchange that enables us to carry on this one sided trade with Brazil. Now, if by the failnre of onr crous. or very favorablei sea
sons n the other side ot the Atlantic, or what is more probable, by retaliation, our exports ot these articles ahonhi materially decline, what then would be tho condition of our Brazilian t.rajin? Instead of deuendmg on the exne rts to
Europe for means to cover the balance in favor of BraziLongbt not an effort bo made to equalize that trade by our manufactured goods? Ought w not to endeavor to verify the prediction of
Cobden by becoming a competitor with Great

When the real condition of our foreign trade and tho chuactcr of the competition in which wo must cooner or later engage, arc fully understood, it will be found that our inability to make that trado as tree as our best Interests
require Ilea in tho necessity which exi.tsfor

ana there are strons inaieawons in irom this time the vielcl of Iwtli gold and silver mines will speed ly decline. At the same timo the demand for both for coiaage and in manufactures will ir.oreise. Tho very ne- I ceseities of the commercial world will prevent a. general and continued disuse of either as moheV. The European niltlens which hold large Amounts of silver meat sooner or later come to its rescue, and the suspension of coinage in the Uni ted States would do much to :

Be reoommends, with the Secretary's concurrence, that officers of the army be permitted tc furnish the bonds of an approved guaranty company. The chief oi engineer shows tho urcent necessity of beginning at once the construction oi coast defense Bteel lorts and turrets to resist guns which send 1 projectile weighing a tori through sittv feet of sand, and whioh must, have like guns, with miwhlnery to load anc. manipulate them, onnot bo built in the tune at. enemy would give ;tter the cessation ot dtploluatiointercourse. . , . ,0 The balance in tec Treasury July 1, UBS. to; Improving harbors and rivers was lo,02l.eW.js, The amount appior riated for 1884 was $1,319,634.02,and the amotm'; drawn from tha Trehsury was $8,228,i-5t. leaving a balance of fci.lia,580.63 m the Treasury July 1, 1884.

The manufacture and test tif experimental guns will require four or five yeai s. and prompt action by Congress In mak ing this appropriation and establishing Government gun factories to secure within a reasonable time efficient means of coast defense. Pending this Congr.stonal action, the department is proceeding with the conversion of smooth-boro suns into rlttea; fifty will be thns
converted this year. . The zeal and enleprise of the Greedy rell'if expedition receive -she highest oommondatiai, and a vigorous deforise is entered against tho assertion of the chief signal officer that aftr th arrival of the Iioterji party at St Johns, Bept.1), 1883, thore was still time to send suSIcieut relief. To send an expedition with auch prparatlon as could 1m mJe after the mldtUe of September, tho Secretary thinks, would hare been practically uauese. Persons whose experience and studies give their opinions weight were consulted by Jie Secretaries of War and the Navy, and the conclusion reached that under most favorable conditions a vessel could not have gone further north that season thri i',.,.w,.vii, nnint 700 miles from Littleton
Island, which distacioe it iiapassablo for boiits helnipos3lbility of overcoming thedlrBctdtics of arctlo travel by land or sea was illustrated by the fact tt at two-thirds of tho Gretj partv starved to dea th at Capo Sablno witt i0 poui.ds of meat untouohed at Cape Isabella, thirty miles distant, aud 250 rations at Littleton, Island, about tho sa me distance, but separated by Smith's Sound. Commander Bohley, pf iha Grcely exredition, in his official repMrt to UM navy deiiartment, s id: "In view of the disaster to tho Ladv i"ranklin Bay expedition at Capo Hil'inc, and the conclusion of the department last v ear that it was Impracticable to send unother vessel north a 'ter the Yantio's return to St. Johus, Sept. 13, 1883, with tho report of the less of he ftoteus, 1 would stato that the past winter In Melville Bay was the most severe expjrieuced for th irty :rears."
