Tho story of tuis rido reads like pago taken from somo strangs talo of fiction, and tho roader iuvarisbly recalls the rido of tho horsoman from Toston to, Lexington in the early gray of morolng to call tho farmors to arms; of the gloomy rido of the il King and tho chld; of tho tramp of tho Wild Huntsman; of tho gallant foat of Ro- 1and as ho carried tho mews from Ais to Ghont; of Shoridna’s ride down the Valloy of Winchos- for; of tho 1ide of Charlos Rende's horsoman in fronb of & bursting dam in the novel “ Put Yourselt in His Placo” gud of Victor Hugo's unearthly rush and sweop of tho Djinns.

[ —— GRAIN IN NEW YORK HARDOR, The nowspapors of New York are at lust giving somo attontion to tho wrotohed provision mads thero for handllug grain recotved both by rail aud canal. Grain rocoivod by canal in tho harbor of Now York ia kopt in and sold from the bonts, in- stond of boing put in elovators. Tho boatmon exact s honvy tox for demurrago, smounting to soveral timos the rato of storage in an alovator, Whou s load In old, tho canal-boat bas to bo towod to tho placo of dolivery, and this businoss of towngo boing & monopoly, tho charges aro ox- cossivo. Tho dolay is long, tho axposure of tho grain to the wonthor is dwaglng, and the ox- Ponso {8 onormous. All of these things might be obviated by putting the grain In store ou its arrival, and by it salo and delivery from tho warchouse. Tho difforonce in tho nctual cost would bo an average of 8 or 4 conts # bushol. Tho present modo of doing businoss i8 primitive ; it is but ono degres ndvanoed from the ol modo of molling tho grain. out of tho boat by the half bushel or peck mens- ure. 'Tho provision for raceiving aud baadling grain by zail is ovon worso than that for racoipts bycanal. Tho grain i recotvod at tho Wost in consignments of five, ton, or twonty car-loads, Thoeo oars atart from tho placo of shipment to- gother, but ave liablo at any point to bo soparat- ed, and one car may got to tho Now Jerssy tor- minua 6 weok boforo tho othoru, Itis not untit Al tho cara of each conaignment are raceivad at. the rallrond terminus that thoy can bo dis- charged. Thero may bo 200 cars waiting in the yard at Now York, aud tho consigneo may have to fieh out from those his “five cars of whaat,» which havo arrived on difforent days, and got thom togother. Tho railroad thon prococds to doliver, which it does by tha following procoss Horses are attached to each car, and banl it up on an olovated troatle-work, under whioh s scov, orbarge, or other vessol, called n lightor, is Placod; men thon gob into the oar, and shovel tho grain into & spout, which oarrics it to tho lightor below. Whon ono car is thus dischergad, the hiorsos pull anothor up on tho trestlo-work, and tho operation Iy repeated. When tho wholo cousignmont fs thus put on tho lightor, tho sor- vices of tho towboat company nre onllod into requisition, and tho lightor with its load is tug- gedsway to somo warehouse dock in Brooklyn, or to thoside of some ocoan-going stesmor, o ovor to Now York, to wait for salo, the costof this procooding bolng vory heavy. This buei- ness is attonded with some romarkablo contine gencics, Tho capacity of tho Jargest lightars is 6,000 bushole, The consignee of fivo cars has his pilo put in ono place, and tho lond of tho lightor msy bomado up of four or five difforont consignmonts, "Tho graln is 5old on 'Chiaugo tobe dalivered, but tho lightor will not deliver any un. til the wholo fs wold, Tho owner of ono-half tho load may bo anxious to soll whilo the ownor of tho other Lalf moy want to walt. In tho mean- time the lighter charges domurrago. Tho grain on a lighter may bo sold in aovoral lots to bo de- livored on 88 many difforent stosmers, lying af various points fn tho harbor. Tho time for a steamer to tako in cargo is always limited. Somo stcamers aro oly allowed soventy-two howrs inwhich to dischargé and taka on cargo. o result is that lighter may havo crain on board, part of whichis sold to go on ono steamer and part on auother steamer lying 3 miles away, and both to #uil sbout tho same timo. Itisno unususl thing to have fittaon or twenty lightern at the side of & steamor at the same timo, waitiug to put on board its load, or patt of lord. Daylight, therofore, is all tao short for this kiud of businoss, xud it fs carried ou all through the night at doublo prico, A lightor having threo or four lots on board s to bo haulod about tho harbor during & dsy or night to dolivor theso to tho soveral vessols on which 1t sy to bo sbipped. A vessel talin g 40, 000 bushels, furnislied by only aix lightors, hoa to pay for lightersze 03/ conts per 100 pounds for lighterago nud welghing, It the lightor is delayed, thoro is an additionnl chargo for do- murrago, and if tho work is done by night tho costls one-halt moro, Tho vossel must sall on timo, and if, es it ofton huppous, thows lightors cannot doliver tho grain o timo, lho utenmer eaile without i, lewving tho sollor who promised to dolivor to tako his unsold graln, subject o & churgo of 37 concn day por bushel for domurrago. ‘Theso chargos #ud oxaotions are ol taken out of tho prico o tho whoat. Tt doos not soom o have over ocour- rod to the Now York trado to Lave lighters so large that ono or two could furnieh tho entiro losd to uny ono stoswmor, nor to bave lightora providod to supply ench line of stormors carry- Ing graln. This would obviste many of tho de- 1ays and out off many of tho charges, But that may bo the reason why no reform or improve- meut is ever attampted, . All this, to speak mildly, ta simply dlegracotal to the great Clty of New York. ‘Ihat olty makos miore proft out of the cliwigos for ghtevago, Daullug, aad domusTago of the bots than it doos ou tho buging aud welliug of graln, A very Inrgo portion of the oxponsn of haudling tho gruin in New York Harbor could be obyiated Lhiavo been lett in tho throe villages, Although the reports aro conflioting, the most trustworthy dispatohes fix tho oause of this dige anioy vory ubmisiakably, Thoré ot b no by buliding elovators at oach ratlway termi- nug, and by tho delivery of graln on board of vogisla dizeob from thess elavators, It wotld destioy ke BOnUpoly and ke oxtortlons of thoso who tako chargo of grain in tho linrbor, Thelr servico would bo wholly un- nocossary if the merchants of Now York would dopt propor monsuros “for rocoiving and hand- ling grain, Tn Philadolphis, tho Pennsylvanis Tallroad Compauy Lins providod amplo accom- modations for the prompt recolpt, storago, aud shipmont of grain ; why oannot tho samo Com- pany mako ltko nrrangements in Now York?

Tho roil-mills, by indorsing this paper, got it discounted, and thus tho ten or fifteon thousand milos of rallway, builé entiroly on oredit, avo mado an oxtraordinary domandl for rails.

Tho * Arbitration Act” which organizod thess courts is mainly tho result of tho labors of Mr. An- tony Mundolla, M. P. Somo years ago, this gentleman, who is himeolt 5 heavy employer of labor, began studying tho subjoct of strikes, Tt taok him but a short time to convince himsolf of their folly aud wastotulness, Ho tried, then, to find & romedy for thom.

Thera was troublo in thiy, howevor, Whon & disputo had onco fairly bogua, it was* difficult to.got oither uldo to chooso fair-minded membors of tho Board, To obviat this, pormanent Boards wero olected, holding power for six months or a yoar. Disputes could thus be rferred to arbitration ot thelr vory inception, bofore a long wranglo had made both parties to thom unwilling to compro- miso, Tho hmppiost results have followed this plan, Tho Boards have, of courdo; no authority toonforeo tholr decross. Roasou doosthat, Mastor and mon present thelr arguments publicly, Tho docision, with the facts upon which it rosts, ia givon publioly. No unfofr advautsge can bo talton on oithor sldo. Botlr feol this, and hencs both, slmost without an excoption, cheorfully comply with the judgmont. Such facts havo Dow borne fruit In the law already desoribod, by which arbitration courty are to be instituted throughout England, ' Tho most noticeablo foatura in this history is tho prominont part played in it by one man. Mr. Mundells propounded his plan, and met With no encouragemant.* Yot he proached his gospol, with tonguo and pon, by procopt and practico. A fow ghort yoars havo passed, and his solowo Las bosome that of oll England. Thero is room for suoh a work Loro. Public attontion has hoou drawn, of late, to tho relations botween ospital and labor.
