pnvwt'd.' Philadelphia reports easier money, 8 better trade in canned goods and in wool, andja fair trade in groceries generdtllv. Chicago sees increasing sabs of dry goods and clothing, with bettercollections, some decrease in receipts of deseed beef and butter, but increase in lard, cheese, bidea and wool. At Cincinnati there is an average trade a favorable cutlook at St. Louis inactivity in retail clothing, owing to mild weather, at Kansas City a depression in the lumber interests at Milwaukee owing to lack of snow, but quiet trade at St. Paul and Cleveland. Trade is improving at Louisville, Memphis and Jacksonville, only fair at New Orleans,, but increasingly active at Baltimore.

The money market has grown easier and banks are able to help customers more liberally, but at the east the difficulty of making commercial loans has not entirely ceased, though moji£y.an-e&l! is very abundant. In other words, those who have money want their funds at immediate demand in case of any emergency. Thj treasury has put oofc of cash, including $1,500,000 more MOW silver notes, about $800,000 •tore than it has taken in during the week. At the West and South alt tbe Money markets are easier, though rates are not lower, and caution in regard to character of loans is more frequently aoted. The greatest industries are not in a wholly satisfactory position. The market for woolou good* is broader and more hopeful and the demand from clothiers is distinctly better, while the boot and shoe trade continues highly satisfactory. But the weekly output of pig iron January 1st was but 167,599 tons. Bar iron is unsettled aud plates weaker. The coal trade is in more hopeful condition and lead and tin are stronger. But the cotton manufacturers feel the effect of accumulating stocks and low prices. Print cloths have sold at the lowest price ever recorded-*-#.#1#* cento for Ws—and the advance in raw material during the past week comes to increase the embarassmeol In general the course of prices for manufactured products is not helpful to producers, while the cost of living and production is enhanced by speculative advances »A the prices of many farm products.

He explained that his was chloride of gold and sodium. "My remedy la unlike Dr. Koch's in that it contains no organic matter. His is albnaainoM lymph, while mine is entirely eorapoeed Q( chemicals. Mine, like his, is prepared la a eolation of glycerine and contains it iu about the same proportion. We have been experimenting with it for some time upon the lower animals with every appearance of saccees, but of course, I would not state anything conclusively concerning it yet Assuming that both remedt-e are capable of oaring consumption, I should decide that mine possessed the advantage. "An organic injection Is not so certain as a chemical one. The results of the former are more beyond control, and its limited effects can not be exactly calculated whereas the effect of chemicals can be correctly judged by their quantity.

ao their girls usually insist upon tbe offices of a priest In Colorado any licensed minister ha# the authority. So also in Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Missouri, Texas and Wyoming. The New Jersey Legislature, wo are grieved to say, gets its ecclesiastical nomenclature a little mixed—a "stated and ordained minister." The Indiana Legislature has a protective tariff for the home in dustry of marrying off Hoosier girls The right is limited to minister} residing within the State. The Illinois law is that the celebrant must be a "minister in regular standing,,'1 Rhode Island is a little Slate, but ifc is sensible There a ruling eider may officiate but, as there are not many ruling elders in tbat State, the rivalry between them and the teaching elders for marriage fees can not be said to be keen. B«t the dignity of tbe right to administer the rite is impaired by the fact that in some localities a notary public will do in a pinch. Tbe notaries in Florida and in the Feliciana parish in Louisiana have tbe authority. Possibly that is the reason why that particular parish is named Feliciana. In Virginia, West Virginia and Maryland none but ordained ministers are authorized. The noses of his Honors, even tbat of the Governor, are out of joint at weddings in those favored States. [But the preachers have to file bonds in the penal sum of $1,100 each that they will do It In good styln and according to law. In all tbe States marriage in the limits of lineal consanguinity, ascending or descending, ia forbidden-, and also within the limits of collateral consanguinity nearer than first cousins. First cousins are forbidden to marry within the boundaries of Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Dakota, Illinois, Indi-

Hampshire, Ohio, Oregon, and Wyoming. Tho question of the legality of marriages within the limits of relationship by affinity has long provoked debate—the cause of all of which trouble has come from neglect of the »30nslderation of very plain and obvious principles. Marriage ^between two institutes conventional, not real, relationships between others, and between themselves and others. These relation* •fcips oome into existence by the marriage, and depend upon it for existenoe. The obvious principle is that when the marriage ceases they cease. A man la his wife's sister's brother-in-law so long as his wife Hvw —no longer. The marriage dissolved by death, all the trilateral chains fMteaed upon that broken link tall with it The confusion of the laws of the various Stated on this subject la because there are no straight paths through the tbioket and ta»j?le of marriage—and will not be sa long as human nature is what it is. Society goes bumping and thumping along the way, knocking its head first against one post of the old matrimonial ooa»h, and then against ihe other. Parental dictation, if allowed, runs to mercenariness. Youthful freedom runs to all sorts of senselessness. But it is wonderful that so little harm comes of matrimonial blundering. Tbi sum total is one of fitness «rd happiness—more blowing than cursing. Mankind testifies that the married life is wortb living. —Interipr.

A new variety or cotton-plant, producing a much larger proportion of cotton to seed than any other known kind, and having the additional advantage of being earlier and IP*S susceptible to atmospheric influent s, sounds like good sews for the Lancashire mills. The new-comer is known as thnmatafifo. It was discovered a few seasons ago al Benba, in Egypt though it has only lately been planted on any thing like a large scale. Matafife Is admitted to have Its faults. It is shorter in the staple and not quite so good in quality as the asbmouni plant? but, for all that it appears to be driving the ashmouaiplant out of the field* Vice-Consul Alban reports that last years experience was so encouraging that in some provinces of Lower Egypt ft has thia y*«r been almost exclusively sown.— London Dally News.

THE BROKEN.. TUMBLKR.

Jim Jones was "proper shi/ties?," so all the viliaere folks said. Lrerything about the farm seemed yolnjjr rack and ruin, and despi--3 tbe f«ot thai his poor wife and Folly, the eldest tfansrbter, worked ait tho :.\ior, they grew poorer everr year. *,ne afternoon in early fall. AJrs. Jones was busy makiojr some jeliy wild grapes that Jim bad contlc-secr. ea to pick. Coming winter and ti,s state of their finances clouded Iter brow as she worked,

She was feeling decidedly IMISI. wiien, answering a knoek, she found at the door Mrs. Snow, the rich uu!l owner's wife, and the one aristccrut oi tne village.

Ihe carriage has broken down.'* she said, "and Mr Jones is icinuly. Iielpins the coacbman repair it step in and wait here?"

Luaccustomed to such visitors, tho hostess confusediy placed a chair At iiest Mrs. Jones and Folly felt ill at ease: but Mrs, Snow had rare tact and soon drew them into conversation, ia the course of the talk, Mrs. Snow tasted of the jelly, and was very enthusiastic over it y.. if yon would only make mo some will paj you well, she said. vAly servams never make good jelly,'"and I am afraid of the •bougiilon' uiulloi'ated.stuff."

Mrs. Jones' tired face flushed. :jut pretty Folly came to the rescue s: ying, "Yes, indeed we will, lean do all tbe hardest part of the work. :iit.i we have quantities of fruit going to waste,"

So it was ^settled. Mrs. Snow thought to herself':^ sae rode away: "Would not thsvt farui•ir's daughter be a beauty, could i-lie but have tho proper setting of clothes. vtid jewels for'tis the real article v. ia*:: a girl is lovely in an old faded gi^gt urn dress." l*'or days the old kitchon was ft lied with delicious odors from the great preserving kettle. Tho peaches, plums, pears, quinces, grapes and crab iinici were changed undm: Mrs. Jones' skilful hands into tumblers of :-y.*uil ^.elly, or put up iu glass jni-a ii irfoat tempting array! shiftless Jim had watched the prc^ ceediugs with jrreat interest, often saying, "What primogood luck .voti'ro having." to the two weary women.

At lost the contract wtu all iicd. It was dusk of a raw afternoon. .iim had harnessed tho ancient -white nag into tho old riolcoty Farm wagou. and bad helped put in the load 0? jvocic-irj sweets.

Mrs. Jones and Polly valientiy mounted the seat and tucked iha shauby old bufftilo skiD about them, for they were far too shrewd to aliow Jim to handle :o much money, Although Mrs. Snow's oifor was very generous, the frugal mother and daughter had twenty .ways for every dollar.

DESTITUTION.

Proposed Reform in urisprudenco.

Criminal

The TJilof Who Stea's Should Reimburse tha Ono Jtlo lias Robbed fHoiv tlio New System

Would Worli.

SvM

From an aiticlo in tho October number of the Statesman, by Ed. R. Pritcbard, the following, embodying its salient features, is taken. Tho writer says: There are few laws on the statute books of any State in tho Union to-day that are in harmony with the spirit of the age in which wo live, which have been pat there without a fight—I mean it has cost much time and labor, and long, bitter discussion, and they were mot with tho most determined opposition before they finally became a vital part of the legal code of a commonwealth especially is this truo of those laws which recognize tho property rights of women, and which place them on something like an equal footing with men in our courts. So, I assert that progress in law making, that is, in framing wise and beneficent laws suited to tho needs of our present civilization, has bc-en slow an 1 tedious. And further, that in almost every instance a proposition to reform a bad, unjust statute, or to make a new one not in Conformity to principles laid down in the old common law books, has come from those outside of the legal profession while, as a rule, tho most uncompromising and bigoted opposition to such measures has como from those within tbat profession, and, not uufrequently, from those highest in it, those wearing the judicial ermine.

In framing a penal statute tho most essential part of it is its penal feature, that is, the punishment which it inflicts. It matters not so much the procedure, the exact form of trial, whether by judge, jury or associate bcnch, but the penalty is all important It might be well to say too that to-day the rights of a person charged with a felony, so far as a fair and impartial hearing, tho right of challenge, the admission of

emv nynyrrratia junu with this working of criminal law that we are finding fault Nor is it with the modes of punishment now in vogue, save that of tb« death penalty but in tbe faot tbat penalties as now inflicted by criminal procedure in our courts fall short of the ends of complete justice. Of

course

1 understand tbat any viola­

tion of a penal eode is taken as an offense against the State rather than against the individual wronged. But 1 do insist that complete justice should take into consideration tbe citizen whit wronged by the law breaker and should therefore inelude in the punishment inflicted rtMitvtion to tbe former.

A thief en wrs my house and earrle* away, wa will say. property to the ralae of one shenaand dollairs. A few days later he Is apprehended. In ths meantime he has effectually disposed el the stolen goods. I am put to th« tronbie. and usually some personal expense, of proseeotlng him. Be is found guilty and sent to Slate's prison foi five years. I have the satisfaction of knowing that this particular thief ot burglar is not likely to trouble me again soon, but does that restore to mc my lost property?

But suppose tbo State put tbii offender to work, hiring him out tu convicts are now let but at a prlc« tbat will pay the State for his keeping and a small surplus for each day he works when this sum amounts #0 the value of the goods he has stolen, then let the State reimburse mo for my loss and give tbe convict bis liberty. This would bo cotnolete justice—"® punishment that fits the crime*' and gives full rcMiiniioh tfj .the pronged party- iMl

Were suoh a system as this in vo^ue there would be but few cases of 00m pounding a felony. To-day, as is well known, one of the meet serious ibstaeles, at times, in tbe way of punishing a criminal, and especially in cities of arson, theft and embezdement is the willingness of the injured parties to forego a prosecution in order to secure the return of apart or all of the stolen or lost property in other words to obtain what the law now fails to give, restitution

This system, tco, would hold good Is crimes of all classes from that of a petty larceny to murder. What bptter or more fitting punishment for him who takes human life than that ha should be compelled to labor the remainder of his days, and his Earnings be applied towards the support of those who may have been left dependent on the one he has musdered. Any commonwealth can famish its oonviota with employment on this basis. If not era public works, such as canals, bridges and buildings, then by hiring them out as is now done* only for a little more money.

Another advantage of this would be to ral*e the price of convict labor, and consequently to advance tfee price of the products of penitentiary lahox which are now produced so cheaply as to force honest laborers te work In many instancee* for almost starvation wage*. All over the land to-day* who are ladissieiowt -tow-

abiding citizens, are crying out agsdnsk this, to them, ruinous competition of oohvict labor.

A large boot and shoe manufacturer contracts with tbe great State of Illinois for one hundred eonvicts at eightyseven and one-half cents per day per man, puts his machinery into tbe prison and sets them to work. He has also a factory in Chicago* where he employs, perhaps, two hundred men, boys, and girls. He forces them into competition with bis prison-paid labor and compels them to accept wages that will barely keep soul and body together, and all because he is able to hire convict labor so much cheaper than he can get honest workmen. The reader will perhaps agree with me that tho man who Wants to bo honest and respectable, who desires to live a free and upright life, can not compete with the man who does not, 4*1 who by violating the laws of! the land becomes a convict and a slave of too State. The latter pays no rent, pays no bo.-yd, has no clothes to buy, has no position' in society to sustain, and, above all. has not the disposition of his c«rn time, nor any thing to say concerning tho wages he shall receivo for his labor while the former has all thes** except the last, and here in effect, the State, which ought to protect^ and encourage honest Industry, steps in tbsreduco the honost an&iihimio to practically the same level with the

convict But tho Restitution System would do away with th is. Another point in its favor: It, would tend to discourage the commission of this cl\ss of crimes. Under our present system a man steals say ten thousand dollars he is sent to tho penitentiary for six years, which would be considered a pretty sevoro sentence. Oe serves his timet and comes out nearly ten thousand dollars ahead supposing of course ho has saved his monoy, or rather some othor man's monoy. Let us, on tho othor hand, suppose? tbat he knew that a theft of ten thousand dollars would mean, if he wero caught and punished, a sentence at hard labor for life, at fifty conts a day, that money all to go towards reimbursing those ho has robbed. Would be not hesitate to incur such a fate? This system would, I believe, almost completely abolish petty thieving would most effectively stifle ihe ambitions of a lararo class of onr criminals, suoh as house-breakers, footpads, till-tappers and sneak-thieves. A theft of one hundred dollars would mean to thorn, perhaps, a yoar's hard labor, at the end of which time they would have been compelled to make full restitution.

In cases where tho stolen property has been recovered tbe same system could still bo employed, the convict's earnings going to tho State instead of to the injured party.
