Statistics prepared under the direction of Assistant-Postmantor Bquires show that theso boxes have beon a great convonionco Lo the publie, the number of deposits made have Innracuart steadily from the start, sud beyond all expectations. Thus, in October last, the firak Tull month after their introduction, 89,080 lot- Sora wero mailed in street-car boxes; and for Juno, 1874, the number was 164,113, ——— Rallwsy property is in England, as in some “paxts of this country, not & very paying invest- Juent at tho present timo. About six months ego railroad atocks began to decline thera atan ularming rato, and they are still sinking.

The atocks havegonoon declinng, too, apito of tho fact thatthe piice of coal and iron has fallen very considerably. This fall in tho ‘value of railway stock is due to the diminished aotivity of trade. m————— 5 A momber of the Modorate Republican party In the French Assembly submitted a resolution Jestorday calling for & clear statoment of Mar- ‘hal Machluhon's protensions. The formal ques- #ion is wrapped 1 words, go that the iden for tho time eludos analysis ; but tho substance of 1808 wohave stated. Debato on this inter- pellation was postponed until the constitutional oillacome up for discussion. It geoms hardly wecessary for the Marshal to repoat at this time what he has just #aid very clearly. ——e Fronch representatives at the Brussols Con- gress will bring charges against the German Government for its conduct of tho war of 1870~ '71, Counter-charges will be mudo by the Ger- mang.

D, Ward, Membor of Congreas from the Bevond (Wost Divieion) District, has returned tothe city, and yostordny expressed himself to our reporter in a manner that would have - startled a strict party man & year or two ago.

Prof ‘Willinm Mitchell, of Nantucket, advocated almost procigoly those views very cloarly, and at con- sidorablo leogth, in Silliman's Journal, nearly forty yoars ago. The Rov. Henry Ward Deechor has roquestod cortsin members of Plymoutl Church and So- cloty to oxamino into ** the rumors, insinustions, or churges” respecting his conduct, which have beon mado by Theodore Tilton. His letter to thia ond is dated Juno 27, two days aftor the publication of Tilton’s letter in tho Golden Age. ‘The public will bo susprised, and not altogother pleased, to loarn that DMr. Beecher bas named the men by whom Lo wishes the Inquiry to bo conductod.

The fact is, however, that the investigation Das boen in progroxs several days, and will prob- ably bo concluded this woelk, yot Mr. Tilton Loy not been before the Committes. The objestions ‘whicl wo have urged to tho spirit of the Inquiry are not fatal. It may be conducted fairly, aud with good results. Inany event there can be 0o donbt that Mr. Boechor has doue wisely in nc- cepting the stuation, and demanding & prompt investigation, BUSINESS PROSPECTS, All over the country we hear tho complaint of Dbard times, dull times, no profits in business, no monoy to be made. At tho samo time the rato of intorest {a uncommonly low, and tho amount of money geeking investmont uousuelly large. “Tho dullness affects the lenders equelly with the borrowers. Monoy has been offered in Chieago, on what is called cash scomity, at & per cont, without takors. What does it all mean? How does it happon that money ia plonty and yot ov- erybody is complaining of hard timos ? Inorder to answer this quesilon we must go baok to tho period autertor to tho panic. We sball then find a condition of great apparent prosperity, unwonted activity in overy dopart- ment of ivduelry, with corrosponding extrav- genco of Jiving, and & luvish investment of capital in pow entorpricos—especially in raile ronds, In the midst of this exubersnce and sbandon came tho faeilure of Jay Cooke & Co., followed swiftly by other suspensions, and cul- mibating in what is now kuown as the Septembor panio, The panio—that Is, the immediate terror —waa, not of long duration, but, boing itaolf the effect of cortain causes, tho same cnusoy havoe continued to pro- duce thoir grist, although the olement of frenzied nlarm no longer existe, Tho simplo fact is, that thero was loss cupital in the conntry last Beptember by some hundreds of millions of dollars than was commenly supposed, for overy dollar juvested in an unproductive rellway or other non-paying entorprise was for tho timo bolng sunk and obliterated a8 effectunily as if it liad been dropped in fhe middle of the otean. 1t was tho sudden discovery of the fact that thoro was a Inrge amount of cspital missing that caused tho panis terror, and put nenrly all the banks of the country into temporsry suse ponsion. When the panio subslded the fuct romaived, and it s that which still afltots business, Wo Lave not got so much property ss wo supposed, A vast smoun! of what wo thought we bad is as idlous & puluted ship upon = paintod ocoan, Thore are railways, even in the oldor Btates of the Union, whose dully operating exponses ox- ceed tholr dally receipts, Nor has this lavish and wasloful oxpondiiuro boen confinod Lo new railways, Itiabuta fow days slnce tho stari- ling roport was wade by a committoe that the Gront Westorn iatlway of Cauads, one of the oldest and most popular ronds ou the continent, bed boen *‘improved™ up to a point whero it conld earn no more than tho intorest on its bonds,—the improvemonts conelsting of branch lines and oxtonslons.

Have wo soon the worat of tha strain, tho hard unt. of tho hard timoa? It is not easy to answor this question, A thoorotical answor cannot bo glven. Wooan only watch tho courso of busi- nens and note the improvomont when it comos. Shortly boforo tho 16t of July thero was a vory porceptible chango for tha better, which con tinued uantil & fow days ago, when the severe drought soomed to threaten tho corn-crop, This had & doprossing offoct which haa not yob beon recovored from, although the racont raing havo' saved the com and put tho farme ors in good humor.

Lnat sumaier the fres exoursions organized in New York for tho purpose of giving poor chil- dren o day's pleasure in the country nttracted very genoral attontion. The project rcooived ‘prompt approval throughout the country, and its rosults wero moro bonoficinl than even the pro- Joctors could have expectod. This yoar a move- mont has boon Bot on foot in Chicago to the samo ond, and wo venturo the prediction that it will not bo hehindin the gonorosity of its organi- zation nor in the pleasuro afforded to those for whosa beuofit it is organized. Wo print in our loval columns acall for a proliminary mooting, which i8 signed by L. Z. Leiter, Gon. Stager, W. ¥. Coolbaugh, Robert Coliyer, and -many other gentlomen of large' mosns or high position. Theso gentlomoen eannot afford to attach thoir nemes toa call of this kind'without giving the project somo of their porsonal attontion, and the success of tho undertaking is therotoro assured. The meoeting is to bo hold at tho offico of the TRepublio Life nsuranco Company, Nos. 157 and 169 LaSalle street, on Mondsy moroing next. Tho business men are invited, with o particular request that all friendg of children bo present. Ouwr businss men cannot jgnoro such an in- vilation. Tl opportunity of affording & day in the country to ohildren who rarely have an hour's reat or a momént's pleasuro, and many of whom have nover been bayond tho city's limits, must appeal to overy men and woman who pos- sesies & penny to epare. After the proliminary organization shall havo boon formed, thoreforo, wo suggest to the mansgors who shall take tho excursions in band to provido some place, ensy of access, to which everybody mey contribute his or Lor mite to the enterprige. The childron of woll-to-ao parents may take down thelr littlo savings-banks and give part of tholr minlature capital for the benefit of other children who nober have suything to save. Motherd who cherish fond recollvctions of children who have passed awnsy will bo glad to part with some of thelr pin-money in such & causo. Indeed, it will bo ahard heart and a scaut pmee that will not open at such an appeal. Thoro was nover a time in the bistory of Chi- cago when excursions such s are proposed would have been more grateful to the poor chil- dren than thoy will bo during the prosent summer, For some months the poorof thiscity, liko all other large citics, have suffered groater doprivation than ustal, The hard times and. lack of employment have pressed them sorely, and their childron have shared their want sud troubles, - Many a homely comfort lng boon taken sway from thom in the common nocesrity for retronchment, The scason so far hag been unususlly warm, snd has more thau likely brought weakoess and disosse among those clagses huddied together in unsavory neighborhoods. Alore young children are hard- worked than rich and indulgent parents dream of. Pooplo who are comwpolled to be out late o'nights may not unfrequently encounteor thom, ~—weary, worn, and dejcoted,—sometimes afraid to go homo to cruel parents who will maitreat them for their ianbility'to earn what was exe pectod of them. It iu not alone the poor, but the childron of the poor, that 5o have alwaya with ¥o : and their little bodies suffor the moro for their weakness, and their littlo hearts pain the Larder for thoir lack of exporience and philoso- phy, .

THE TUDUES IN THE W] CONBIN RAILWAY The Now York Daily Bulletin of tho Bth has an article on the Wiscousin Railroad law, review- ing the daoision of the Court that sat st Madison {0 hewr the injuuction ceso brought in the name of tho Chieago & Northwostoru Railway bond- holders to prevent tho ouforcoment of tho Pottor Iaw, Wo hiave sald that tho articlo inthe Bulletin was & Toviow of tho deoislon, It would bo moro correct tosoy that it was unatiack onthe intogrity and good faith of the Judgos who gaveit, Tho Bulletin says that the Court dld not, In tholr aotion, troat, or intend to troat, the question bow foro them upon it morite ; and thut the decleion was buly what wes to bo expeoted conaldoring the Crapger influence fn the West, It speaks of tho Judges 28 dopendont upon pohitical movoments, snd acenses them of bav- ing ehirked the jusue, and evaded tho rosponsi- bility of dolng thelr duty. The astion of the Court, 1t allogos, wae such that it saved Judgen Drummond and Hopkine the risk of appearing %o oppose the Grangers. Judgo Davis, it eays, did pot hinwelt beliove In bis deolsion, and givas 8 & 708000 that he rscommonded thab the case . aliould bo cartlod jmmodiatoly to the Bupreme Court of tho Unitod Statos, aud thst tho en- forcemont of tho law shiould, in tho intorim, bo suspondod, This recommendation it consldors as proof that Judge Davls did not beliove tho declsion made by Judge Drummond to bo good law. Wo are sorry to notico that any susplolon has Dbeen thrown on tho Court, There is no ground whatovor for auch aspersions as thoso made by tho Bulletin, In tho first placo, Judges of tho Unitod Htatas Courts aro nt spbjoct to politieal contingoncies liko tho Stato Judgos. Fedoral Judges aro appolntod for lifo. Tholr salaries cannot bo diminished afler thoir nomination, Thoy eanbo removed from the Bencli only by donth or impoachmont. It mattors littlo to thom whnt party is In powor, Republioan, Domooratio, or Indopendont i whotber tho Granger or any othor influonco ia for thom or agalvst them, Tbis may ba said of all tho Judgos of the United Btates, ®inco tho tomptntions to which they ore subjected aro reduced to s minimum by the Constitution. But to impute any motive othor than tho highest 1o tho Judgo who deliv-- ored tho doolslon in that caso i proposteroua, Judge Drummond fa so wolt known to tho people of the Weat that if all the papors in thoe country whore ho is not known shonld unito with tho JBulletin to asporoe bim, it woutd bo imposstble to produce tho slightest improssion here. The Bar of Judge Drummond's cirenit will testify unanimously to his judiclal ocarefulness, probi- ty, impostiolity, and learning. Ho Is what ovory Judgoe should be,—ote of those who would do Justico though the heavons shenld fall. Such is tho witnosa borne by all who have known him sinoo ho bogan hie distinguishod carcor on tho Bonch. i ' Wo did not, any mote than the Bullelin, anticl- pato the decision which was mado in that caso, and we doubt whothor it is conducive to tho. prospority of Wisconsin. It may bo that tho Bupremo Court will not afirm Judge Drum- mond's docision, though we think it will; but, whother it does or not, no cloud will rest on the integrity of tho Court that gave it. Judge Davis' advico to the litiganta was morely a friondiy suggestion, and wo thmk s wise ona, To ey that ho did not concur in the deolslon when hesnt on the samo.Bench and heard it road and did not digsent, 18 as wild and wide of tho mark as tho suggostion that Judge Drum- mond was under the influence of the Grangers. THE DEMOCRATS AND THE INDEPENDENTS, Tho Rock Islaud Arqus, whoso editor, Mr. Danforth, is s membor of the Demooratio State Committeo, noticing the discussions among tho no-called Domocratio papers ng to the time and place for calling o State Conventlon, onters & protest agawnst such a Convention. The Argus declaros that there is no necossity for owe, and trusts thnt thore will bono mooting of the Com- mittce, and declares, among othier things, that “Wost of Ohio thero isno such party in tho fiold a8 tho Democratic party.” Tho Monmouth Review algo opposcs a Convention, and the Oquswkn Spectator declaros that if a Convou- tion be caliod no considerablo portion of tho Democrats will countonanco it. All theso pa- pers propose and urgo, with more or less ear- neatoess, that * there bo no Domocratio Conven- tion, and no call for ono ; thnt thore bo an union with the Indopendent Reformors," and the sup- port of the Domocrats be given to Mesars, Goro and Etter, thereby carrying the State and defoat~ ing the Ropublicans, as they think can bo easily'dono. 2 A Among the roasons given by the Argus for adopting this plan jia that tho Domocratic Con- vention would bo divided upon the currency and other questions, and might adope an unmeaning platform, wherens, if such a Convention woro hold it onght to adopt 8 clear and distinct decla~ ration in favor of specio payments, tho exchango of groonbacks for coin by the Troasury, opposi- tion to all legielation by Congress which can bo done by the States, and opposition to legislation regulating tho babits or rostrainivg tho froo- dom of the peoplo excopt for crimo. This plat- form, tho Arqus fears, might not be adopted by tho Couvention, as it ought to be, whilethe nom- ination of a third ticket would result in electing the Ropublican ticket. In the absenco of any other authoritative deo- lavation on the curreucy question than that adopted by the Indopendont party, the adoption of ita candidates will amount practically toan indorsoment of tho platform of that party. It is thot very platform that hos excited distrust and opposition, snd driven o multitudo of those disgustod with the Ropublican party away from tho Indopendent organization. Nor can these pooplo be made to vote in any way which will oven scem Lo indorse tho policy of inflation and irredeemnble currenay. + Thero is more at stake in this matter than the merd election of ono sot of candidates and the dofeat of the athor. The character and credit of the Stato aro involved. The peoplo of Il nois cannot afford to bave thelr good namo tar- nished by proclaiming themselves the advocates of perpotual shioplasters. Doth public und in- dividunl erodit would bo impaired thereby, and this would be an exponsive prico to pay for the olection of the Lwo candidates nominated by the Todependent Conventjon. It is not necessary that thero should be a Democratic State Conven- tion, nor thet a thud ticket should be nominat od, but thero is a nocessity, and a very urgont one, for & Conventlon which, even though it suay conclude to votefor Messrs. Goreand Ettor, shall also speak 1 unmistakable terms the language of rood faith to the public ereditors, and aball dig- tinctly aflirm tho true financial dootrine that thore ia and can bo but one standard of mouey, and thot tho atandurd recognized by the clvilized nations of tho world, Thera must bo a firmn deelnration in favor of a resurption of specie payments, and thoro should bo as firm a protost agninst intorforonce by the Btale with the sooial Labits and personal freedom of the peoplo, Having thus vindicatod the charaatar of the poo- plo of tho State, the conclusion to vots for the candidates of the Indepondents will earry with it no oftensive, false, or injurious implication of symputby with inflation and with frredeomable, lylng monoy. Buch a Couvention may ba called, stuting {ts object and purposs, aud no one, Demacrat or othor, need attond or partiolpate unlesd bo is in sympatly with that abjoct, Buch aotion would in no way ombarrass any proceed- ings in Jocal distriots having for thelr purpose an union to elect porsons plodged to reform. i st Tho wunton and unjustifiable destruction of the buffalo on tho platns finds o parahlel in tho needloss waste of Jifo In the sonl-fishiug distriot, Thluliug mon have raised thofr voice in protest againgt tho rocklees destruction practived by mankind upon all sorts of proporty, animal and vegotable, which threatens rapid extormiuation.

In all tho seances whioh ho attonded, tho writer fin the Spectator esaures us ho nover witnessed any phenomonon which might not bo accounted for on the ‘“most ordinary snd humdrum view of 1life* Biill, ho does not meot Mr. Wallace's ohallengo by the cry of *‘Inored- iblo nonsenso!” Ho is able to explaln away all tho so-called phenomonn of Sphitualism that has como under his own immodiate obsorvation, Not g0 oasily, howover, tho circumstance thab men of uodoubtod ncutoness, oalmnoss, nud honor testify to (ho existonco of cortain extraor- dinary and unoxplained facts of a medium- istio naturo. That mon posscssing such quali- tios should beliove in the faots of Spiritualism and become converts to i, and that its newest converts should be men of a highor averagoe calibro than the earlior ones, is tho only surpris- iog thing this writor notea in the wholo history of Spiritualism, aud bo is ready to admit that this alono ia sullicient to moko it reason- able to Inquire .nmlmr and with groater caro into tho allegod wonders of modern Bpiritualism. The question to be solved in iho caso of tho intelligent and Lonest sdboeronts of | Bpiritualism is hovw their fllusion arises ; and, aa ‘Mr. Wallace's eritio romarks, a caroful cross- examination by investigators of some of tho lead- ing instonces will be able to show how it does. Tho alloged facts, it true at all, are highly im- portant ones, no mattor what their.oxplanation, whethor thoy signify only a now physical force, & now field of volition, or & now ovidonoe of im- mortality. | The writor in the Spectator rightly finds fault with Wallace for saying that tho reality of the facta hio alleges are so indispatably proved that they do not want confirmation. Regarding Mr. ‘Wallace's instancos of spirit-photographs, ho 8ays that an excolient photographor has nssured him that, go far as thoy dopend on mero sclen- tiflo guarantoes, they are good for mothing for tho purposo for which thoy are quoted; that e bod himsolf examined the facta carefully, aud digcovered fraud at work in thom time and again, However, it is with Mr. Wallaca's asser- tion, that it Spiritunlism be truo it constitutes ‘g great moral agoncy which may yet regenerate the world)” that his reviewer finds most fault, If, ho argues, the phonomona alloged by Mr. Wallaco do actually occur, and aro due to the agency of spirits whick onco livod upon earth, the prinoipal inforonco from tno fact is * that ninety-nine hundredths of the communications como tous from the moral rub- bish of the unsoon world,” This, even Mr. Wallace does not dony, since ho grants that ' rub- bish " ia tho word which bost exprossos the intel- loctual and moral condition in which, porhops, ninety-ninohuudredths of those who are born into tha world leave it, If this be not the oxplanation, e must, thon, infor that the loss of bodily or- gavization impoverishes rather thon develops the fooultfes of spirits. A writer, Mr. Crookes, mentioned in our eritic’'s artiolo, remarks that the *intelligences whioh commu- nicate through mediums are possibly not human at all, but moy come from some othor race of beings~—Ariels and Calibans—presumably below our level, not above it,” ‘That they may be such or auything is possible, sinde no effort was over made to identify them with the individuals whom they ropresent themselves to bo. Spiritualism at it8 best ie but s fuith in Immortality, plus the excitoment of recolving asories of absurd commu- nications from tho other aide of the grave; and, a8 tho writor {n the Speclator shows, it s no great spuritual gatn to believe that, after wo shall have shufled off our mortal coll, we shall be ondowed with tho glorious fucul- ty of |lknocking about our {friends’ tables, showering flowors upon them, of giving thom & lock of spiritual halr, appearing ina misty oylindor with our hoad just dimly visiblo at one end, of playing on a barmonfum, ringing . bollg, untying lnots, or making musical justrus ments move about o darkened chamber, If the phonomena of Spirituslism prove anything, they tostify to the oxistanco only of & lot of fue vioible bolngs distinguished s ncrobats, gimple- tons, and llars, purporting to lave boen onco mon liko ourselves, und to have beon acquainted with ouraelvos, with our parents, frionds, or firat cousins, That mou of gevws like Wallaco copt, perbinaps, thatgoniusis nosafoguard against dacoption, It Mr. Anthony Comatocl, tho amatour deteo- tivo, hud bappened in Georgis lust weok, bo would have found a glorlous opporiunity to kevp his name bufore the publio, but as the matter now goes, the postal authoritios have’ autici- pated bim, and the opporiunity hus gone by.
