The choica yesterday fell upon the Roev. Jons Hrnay A grand Republican meeting was Leld at Clovelaud yesterday. The immenso attend- ance and the great enthusinsm ovoked by the appearanco of Mr. Haves, the former and (uture Governor of Ohio, and cx.Gov. Nores, wero sowething quite uncommeon in polilical gatherings of late years. Itis Sr.lill that o demongtration of equal size and sig- niticance bas not been witnessed sinco the Grst GRANT campaign in 1868, ‘The art-gallory of the Cincinnnti Exposi- tion was opened every Sunday afterncon Inst yenr. As far as known, Porkopolis Chris- tinnity was not injured by the consequent de- crenso in rum-drinking and rioting on the first day of tho week. But tho doors of tho Chicago gollery are shut evory Sunday, nover- theless, The-gallery is built on ground own- ed by the people, to bo sure, and Sunday afternoon is the only timo of the weck on which a great maltitndo of tho people can go to sce the pictures, but some sapient person thinks Gerden City religion would be hurt if tho snloon-receipls of Sunday afternoon were interfered with, A fow yonrs hence, men will laugh ot this superstitious folly., At present, many men are swearing about it. There is good nows for the ndvocates of renl money in tho announcemont that Cary Scuonz, who bas just returned from Europe, will at onco tako part in the Ohio campaign and contribute his splendid abilitics -8s an orator and logician toward the success of tho Republican party., The spirit which ani- wates Mr. Scnunz in this determination to ro-unter polities as n Republican is evinced in his declaration that ‘“no greater disaster conld befall the conntry than tho success of the inflation enthusiasts.” Belioving this, ho could not remnin neutral or silent. Ho will, itis said, deliver six spoeches, tho dates of which are not yot nnnounced, His nppenr- nnce on the stump will be a featuro of the . campnign, and will grently strongthen the Republican side. Attorney-General Prznnrront, in reply to & delegation of Mississippi Republicans who waited upon him yosterday, gave them sound aud sensiblo advica, Ifaving beon assured *hat quict hiad been restored, ho told them to go home and organize for self-defense, and if it proved that they wero unablo to protect themselves ngainst the murdorous assaults of their encmics, then it would bo time snough for the Governmont to come to their nsgistance, This is practieally the courso recommended by itk Tainuve in ils igsne of yestardoy—that if the Mississippi TRepublic- aus would not bo shot down like sheep thoy must arm and defend themselves liko men, and that the best way o put a stop to mas- aacres by tho White-Leagno Demacrats is to convince them that shooting and killing may be attended with perilous conkequences to tho attacking party. This is good law,—the first thet was over enacted,~the law of self. defonse, and the Attornoy-Goneral has point. od out an admirablo solution of the Missis. #ippi question. — I'he clection yesterday by tho Convention of the Episcopal churches of the Rov. Dr, JMcLaney, of Cloveland, as Bishop of the Diocese of Illinols, signalized the triumph of the Church over the dissonsions by which it wus threatened, As will be apparent in the proceedings published in Tae Trmune this morning, the election of Dr., MoLanes was o compromise. But it was o compromise in which personal and juasipartisan considera. tions alone wero sacrificed for tho promotion of tho harmony of tho Church at large ; and the concesslons required were choerfully mado. The result, if accopted, as there yeems no reason for doubting it will be, in tho epirit in which it was at. tajued, will bo tho triumph of neither party but the victory of both in cementing more strongly the union of the Church in the Dio- ceso. As such it will bo secepted by the Church throughout the United States as a happy sugury of s renewal of the vitality aud an incrense of the good worksof tho Church in Ilinois, The Chicago produce markets viers irvegn- lur yesterday. Mess pork was in good do- wand, and $0@G00 per brl higher, closing at $21.90 cashy, and $21.70 for October, Lard was dull, and 100 per 100 1bs highor, closing ut §12.95 cash and §18.00 for October, Moatu were quict and easier, st 7@7]o for shoul. ders, 11}@1130 for short ribs, and 11jo for short clears. Lake freights were quiet and drn, ut Yo for curn to Buffalo, Highwines wero dull and 1clower, at $1,15 per gallon, Flour was in better demund and steady. Whigh was losu sahizs; e4d closed -13c lower, at $1.14} cash and $1.11] for October. Comn wnd in moderate demand, and Je higher, closing at G0je for September nnd H9ic for October. Oats wero active and stronger, closing nt 36]e for September and Side for October. Rye was quict and stronger at 76)c, Barloy wns in fair demand and firm, closing at £1.12 cash and §1.06 for October, Hogs wero active and higher, with sales at 86.50@ 9.80. Cattle and sheep wore nctive and firm, Ono hundred dollars in gold would buy 116,50 in greenbacks nt the close. Thero is apparently ono place in the South where o negro can have justice, Cormax Hannis, a full-blooded negro preachor, was brought before Judgo Tlenscren V. Jous- sox's Court at Sanderaville, Ca., recently, upon a chargo of inciting his race to insnr- Tection in Washington County, When tho trinl commenced, public opinion was almost universally against him, aud there was a gen- eral clamor that ho should be hanged. When Lo wea brought to trinl, the evidence showed that there was no proof of the charges ngninst him, and the jury brought him in not guilly, Thero is evidently a chance for a negro in Georgin. In Missis- sippi the negro wonld have been slaughtered, Then tho whito rufiians would have rallied oud slanghtered all the negroes they conld find, Then the Chairman of the Democratic State Committes would have telegraphed the President there was no need of military in- terference, since everything was quiot. Tho National Lurmbermen had snofler in- teresting scssion yesterday, The discussion and action of the Association related to such important questions as the collection of stn- tistics showing the quantity of lumber pro- duced, ond the rate at which the pino forests of Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesotn, Canadn, aud other pine-growing regions nro being de- pleted by cutting, nud have suffered from fires; tho organization of local Boards; the adoption of a mnational and uniform systom of ivspection aund grading; im- provoments in methods of manufacturo; tho oppointment of & committes to draft bills nnd urgo their passage by the Legislatures of Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota, with o viow to the protection of timber lands from the ravages of forest fires, ete. From the remarks of the various gen- tlemen upon the subjoect of timber supply, it is evident that all are ngreed upon one vital point—that ut the prosent rate of consump- tion the pino forests of America will be com- pletely stripped within the next twenly or thirty years. —— THE MAINE ELECTION, There has been n good denl of astonish- ment that the Republicans have carried Maine by less than 5,000 majority, The fact that Maino has for twenty-one years tanght the country to expect o repetition of tho Repub- lican mnjority of 10,000 to 12,000 nccounts for tho surpriso. Thero are, however, soveral reasons why the decrense is entirely natural, and notto bo accepted ns o gauge of any chango in the political sentiment throughout the country, To begin with, thero was no material differenco between the two parties on national issues. Both parties wore sub. stantinlly agreed on the tariff and currency questions. Tho platforms wers both uncom- promisingly in favor of hard money. Noto the similarity on the currency question : HETUHLICAN, DEyOCRATIO, A round currency based! A sound currency, cofn on_coin, and redécmablelor ita equivalent, assential in coln, fa eesentisl to thefto stability in 'business, [rosyerity of he peagle.fand o reatoration of proa- Wo therefare approvo alijperity : tepa toward apo- Judicloun legielation look-leio payments, aud no ing to that eud, {stops backward) The stumpers on both sides advocated specio resumption with oqual power, hence the Republican candidates could obtain no advantage over their opponents on that great issue, 'To carry out the similarity, both can- didates for Governor were Generals of the War, comparatively young men, of oxcellent position and roputation. Tho identity of po- sition of the two parties on national issuen loft the votern free to yield to any local or porsonal influences that might be exerted on one eido or the othor, It is natural that the bulk of these local influences should bo ad- verso to the Republicans. A very alight thing induces men to seek a change. In Muino, tho Republican party has becomo an old story. It has held uninterrupted control of tho Stato since 1854, Men voted at this last clection who wero unborn at tho timo the Republican party first succeeded to power in Maine, For twonty years previously, with tho exception of a single year, 1840, the Democrats had been in the mnjority; but nover sinco the Republicans wrested the State from thom, in 1854, have they been ablo to recover it. The consequence of this unporalleled strotch of power is, that the Republican party in Maino is held respon. sible for all tho political, local, and personal grievances which anybody haa in the State. Any differenco or quarrels on village topics aro neccssarily ogainst tho prrty in power, All dissatisfaction with local administration falls upon that party. Any variation from the usual Republican majority in Maine is not, therefore, a subjoct for surprise, The only gonuine wonder is that such & variation s not occurrod moro frequently, There is no othor cxamplo of any party anywhero Lolding its mojority with s0 much uniformity such a length of time. - ‘This would be sufficient, we think, to ac- count for any sudden change in the usunl Republican majority of Maino. But there bave been other influonces at work. The “tidal wave" of lnst year did mot reich Maine 1l this yoar. The ro- d;:cliun of the Ropublican majority thig year ig simply the walke of Inst year's wavo, Its work hiss been nssistod to somo extont by the increass of tha foreign Irish vote, In Moine, ns in all the New En. gland States, there is large annual emigra- tion of the native young men to the West, and the vacancien thoy leave aro filled by Catholio Irink, who huve been pouring juto Now England in a sirong, steady stream for & number of years, and who in Maino, a8 every- where elso, have always been, with ozcop- tions, bittorly antagonistio to the Republican party, and steadfnst supporters of the Demo. cratio organization, The Republicans of Maine will have to work harder heroafter or they will find their contrel of the Statp alip. ping out of their fingers and Passing into the hands of the Domooratic-Celtio alliunce, The details of a most extraordinary case of officinl overcharging have been rocently fur. nished us, which certainly ilMustrate the abuscs of our Costom-House system and our tariff laws. A gontleman in Hamburg en. deavored to send to his child, residing at 208 West Jackson street, Chicago, & package containiug an album photograph containing Lis piclure, The packsge was carefully on. valoped and put in the hands of the Ameri- can, Foreign, and European Express Company, to,bo forwarded by them to New York, He paid all tho charges to New York, 4 thalers and 5 groschen, In due time the Adamg Express Company presented the packago at | his handsoma faco, and talked to thom about tho residonce, in this city, at thesamo time do- manding payment of the following itemized bill L Frelght and chargos to New York.

What the exact duty on the photograph is we do not know, 1t is asserted that thero iz nodnty on such an article. The duty collectad must havo been about $2,65 in gold. The Now York Custom-Houso charged 75 cents for “tcarting " this photograph from tho ship to the wareliouso; charged 90 cents feer, and 40 cents for appraiscrent. Who it is that is to ket the &5 for brokerage and eommission in not stated, The value or cost of the articls was probably 31.50, and yot to get it through the Custom-1louse cost $10.05. e THE PEOPLE'S MONEY. ‘The Cincinuatl Enguirer ba takeu to quoting “the boudliolder's dollar * at 124, or theresbouts, adding tho remark that *the londholder's dollar " I worth “435% cents mora than the people'sdollar,” aul adiding also tiro query, ** Why should the rich man's dollar be worth more than that of the poor man 7" The Cincinnati Enguirer can do no better fervico than to show that the Democratio party in Ohio.'not content with degrading the people's dollar to §6 cents, are now labor- ing to still further roduce its value, Tho United States 6 per cent honds, with green- backs worth 86 in guld, sell for 120 in cur- rency, which makes the market value of tho bonds in gold at 103 1.5, This includes two mounths'aceried interost. The United States 5 per cents sellat 117) in paper, worth 86 cents, which gives the bonds a value of 101 in gold, including ncerued intercst.. 'The difference in the volue of the honds nnd of the greenbacks is, in the ono case, nbout 16 cents and in the other 15 cents on the dollar, and not 354, a8 the Enquirer falsely affirms, ‘The opposing policies are divided npon the question whethier the ** people’s money "— the greenbacks—shall be advanced in valuo from 86 ccuts to 100 cents, or whother they shall bo reduced in value from 86 to 80, 75, or 50 conts on tho dollar, The people’s money is the money in which the wages of lnbor aro paid, and in which tho prosccutions of ovory form of industrinl productions are paid for, and in which their savings are invested, The daily wages of Inbor are paid in money worth 86 cents on the dollnr, and the En- guirer and its inflation followers insist that tho currency is worth too much, that its in- creased valuo has made it scarce, and that the amonnt of it shall be so incrensod that the money in which labor is paid for shall be run down ns low as it can be got, sny 50 cents on the dollar. Tnz Carcago TRIDUKE, on the contrary, in- sista that the people’s moncy~—tha monecy which is used to pay for labor and buy corn and whoat—shall be raised up in valne un- til it equals 100 cents on the dollar, and that tho people and tho bondholders shall Lavo monoy of oqual valua. Another and very startling differonce be- tween the policy of the Enquirer and that of ‘I'e TRIBUNT: s in the settlemont with theso bondholders, The paople have to poy taxes to pay these bonds. It now takes $120 of the paper money of tho peaplo to buy a $100- bond. If tho valus of tho people's money bo raised from 86 to 100 cents on tho dollar, then it will only take $100 of tho people’s money to pay the bond. Then the people's money will bo s good as the bondholders’. Then $100 of tax will pay 100 of intorest- bearing debt; now it takes n taxof $120 of tho people’s monoy to do it, and if the Zn- quirer and its frionds have their own way it will requiro a tax of $160, $180, or $200, to tako up $100 of tho public debt, ‘The Enquirer, not content with the 16 to 16 conts difference in the value of the *¢ bond- holders’ monoy " and the *people's money,” insiats upon making that differonce groater,— increasing it from 16 to 40 or 60 conts, while Tax TRIDUNE insiats that tho greenbacks ba made oqunl to the bonds in value, so that avery dollar of surplus revenuo from taxation can be usod to reduce snother dollar of the interost-bearing debt. Tne Trinune objects to the present deprocintion of the people's 1noney s n robbery and an outrage on labor, industry, and thrift, and opposes any further reduction of its value. Tne Trune is awaro that the workmen and workwomen of tho country, the orphans and widows of tho United States, havo on deposit to their credit in the savings banks a thowsand wiillions of dollars, payable in paper money, It is tho iccumulation of labor, the savings of years of toil, tho sacred provision made, of im. roenso sacrifices, for the future. Tur Tam- UNE insista that this money, which is now do- graded to 80 cents on tho dollar,— o loss to the depositors in the savings banks of one hundred and forty millions,—shall be raised in value to 100 cents on the dollar, 8o that its owners, when they want to uso it, may demand dollars that will purchase an actual dollar's worth of other property, THow is it with the Enguirer and tho other inflationists? They insiat that this thousand millions of dollare belonging to the working classes is alroady worth tco much, They insist that tho people’s money is too high ot 86 cents on tha dollar; that it is scarco and so valuable that the owners will not take less than &6 cents in coin valuo on the dollar forit. They inalst that theso savings of the people shall be cheapened ; that paper money thall be {ssued in such quantities that ongo- fourth, oue-third, or one-half these accnmu- lations of the thrift, labor, aud sacrifices of theso poople shall be swept away ; and that instend of dollars they shall receive, when they want it, scrip that is sold at tho street corners and at publio auction for whatever tho purchaser will give for it, It the bondholders' money be worth 101 conts in gold, while the people's money is worth but 86 cents, the difference is duo to tho efforts of thoso who o porsistently op- poao the clovation of the value of the latter, ‘The action of tho Pennsylvania Democratic Convention tho - other day reduced the value of the people's money 2 cents on the dollar, Tho Ohio Demoorats aro now laboring to roduce it still more. Ba- foro the Tennsylvania Convontion the ‘wages of labor was paid in money worth 88 conts on tho dollar. Wages are now paid in money worth 86 cents on the dollar, and, should tho inflationists succeed in Ohio next month, it is possible that the greonbacks will fall to 80 cents on the dollar. It is thua that the professed friends of the poople’s monoy ore laboring to increass the difference be- tween the bondholders’ money and that of tho people, by the persistent depreciation of the latter, P e— Jerrerson Davis was to sp yestordsy at the Winnchago County Fair, He declined, at tho cost of much editorial writing, some bad fooling in the Bouth and North, and one duel, In hiastead, the Hon. J, R, Doourrre, ex-Sonator of Wisconsin, showed tho farmers wator routes, railways, puro clections, and household ruffrage, as tho report of Lis ora. tion, published on nother page, shows, His denuncziation of the *lying ballot-box " ia manly and timely, o says: * Eithor theso frands at the ballot-box must como to an end, or the Republio will perish.” Hia plan of Prevention contning somo unique foatures.

The great reform needed, however, ho concoives to bo *‘honsehold auffrage,” which consists in giving avery married man two votes, one for himself and one for his houschold. Mr. Doottrrre plends for this with great ingenuity and con- sidernble force. 'Tlicro are oo or two facts, however, whicl ho overlooks, Ifow is ho to prevent frandulent marringes, *good for this day only," by which somo abandoned woman wonld gerve—tor voling purposes—as the wifo of adozen equally abandoned men, on the same day ? And, iu any event, is the pro- posed reform anything but a half-wny-house on the rond to woman suffrage ? e e KOULTON AND BEECKER. The Breuen seandal has been temporarily revived by o striking letter from Mr, Mour- TON. It strikes from the shonlder. Movt- 70N hos boen aroused by a request from tho District Attorney, in which Mr. Bricmen joined by his concurrence, that ho (Mout- ToN) acquiesce in the proposition that o noll proscqui bo entered in the criminal enso pond. ing ngainst MouLtox for slander and perjury, The request was cerlainly an impertinent one. Mr, MovunroN was indicted at the in. atanco and upon the afidavit of Mr, Beronen, The indictment was found fully ona year ago, and, though Mr. Mourroxhns froquently demanded a trinl, it has never been granted him, The indictment stamps Mourzoy and his wife by implication ns couspirators nnd perjurers. For Mr. Mourtoy to ncqniesco in a withdrawal of tho prossoution would Lo to confess himself and his wifo guilty of the charge, and rondy to tako refugo behind tho generosity of Mr, Berouen aud the publio prosecutor to avoid tho consequences of this crime. No man would consent to such an nrrangement un- lesa ho felt himself guilty, and feared the ro- sults of a judicinl investigation. Mr. Mour~ Tox has rejected tho proposal with the indig- nation of an innocent man who rosents the imputation under which MMr. Brroner has placod him, aud from which it wonld appear that Mr. Bercurn doss ot dosira he shall lhavo tho opportunity of escaping. Those who Lave read 3r. Mourtoy's lot- tor, which was published in "Tue Trinuxe of Yesterday, cannot fail to have been improssed with the remarkablo vigor of stylo and clear- ness of reasoning which it presouts. As ro. gards tho cxpenso of thotrial, it was tho duty of tho officers of tho Peoplo to determino be- foro the indictmont whether the offenso wero of sufliciont magnitnde, and tho case ngainst Mr. MourtoN sufficiently strong, to warrant his prosccution. It is too Iate, af- tor laving visited Mr, Mouwron with the disgraco and held it over him for a year, to admit of this plea ns an extenuation for refusing Mr. MouLToN on opportunity of scquitting himaolf of tho charge thus pub. licly and oflicially made ngainst him. It may be that Mr, Bezcuer, though fecling himself innocent, revolts against any further oxpe- rienco in a public trisl. To say tho best, Mr. Breonen hes not shown himself to bo n courageous man. But ho should have thought of his personal comfort before he caused the indictmont to bo mads, No consideration of this kind should now be permitted to deprive Mr, Mourtox of the right of judicial vindi- cation which every accused man has ; for Mr. Bercnes to abandon the prosccution which he himsolf inatituted would bo o sort of con- fossion that he brought it in the firat place simply for tho purpose of sccuring some moral support in the civil case which Trrron had brought against him, In relation to the eriminal prosecution which Mr. Bercmer, the prosscuting wit- ness, and Mr. Brrtron, the prosecuting at- tomey, now want to abandon, Mr. Movrron Lias sot himsolt befors the people in a very creditablo light, and with a vigor and ear- nestness that will gain him o large amount of publio sympathy. If the prosecution shall be actually nbandoned after oll, this courso will bring moro suspicion and diseredit upon the prosocutors than tho prosecuted. DR. DEROVEN'S LETTER, Whatover opinions may be held by the members of the Episcopal Church relative to tho dogmas concerning tho Eucharist dis. cnssod in Dr, D2 Kovan's lettor to the Diocesan Convention,—n dincussion, by the way, which foreibly reminds ono of the discussion of the dogma of tho Processiori of tho Holy Ghost at the recont Old Catholic Confersnce at Bonn,—both his friends and opponents will Join in the mutual declaration that this let- ter is o calm, foreiblo, and manly statemont of viows, and in its pororation an cloquent and dispassionata definition of his relations to the Dioccse. The main point of in- terest in tho lotter is his statoment of tho doctrine ho lolds with re. spect to tho Ioly Eucharlst, as it was tho charge of unsound doctring upon this point that led to his rojection by the Standing Committees. Mo therefora dovotes the largor part of his letter to the Convention to the enunciation of his views upon this point. After showing that the dootrine is clontly connceted with thd mediation of tho Bon of God,—a position which ho fortifies with numerous quotations from Seripture,— be passes At once to the affirmation of the actual *‘prosenco of Christ, God, and man in one person in the Holy Eucharist,” without soeking to explain the mode or monner. In this connection, he very explicitly stotes that ke does not affirm that the Presonce in tho Eucharist is by transubstantiation,—the Xoman = Catholic doctrine of tho change of the bread and wige into tho blood and the body of Christ; or of consubstantiation, that is, the co-cxistenco of the body and blood with the bread and the wine; or of identity of sub- stanco, that is, that the Eucharist ia at one and the samo time the substance of drend and wine and of Christ’s body and blood ‘I'he only afiirmation which ke will make con- cerning the Presonce in the *‘elements” is that Christ is thero “‘sacramentally end spiritually, and thus really and truly.” ‘This explanation of Dr, Dx Kovex of the mooted mystery of the Eucharist is about equally non.committal with the evasive answor given by the Princess Erizaners, of England (afterwards Queen Brss), when visited in the Tower by nglelegate from tho Bishops, who wanted to prover her guilty of horesy, She wrote s Obirfet was the Word that spake it, e Look the bresd and treak " Aud what the Word did make {t; ‘Thut I belave, and taks ¢, ‘There is a aecond point growing out of the first ono to which Dr, Ds Kovxx seriously ad. drosscs himsclf, namely, tho adoration of e e ————— Christ in tho **oloments,” which has also constituted ono of the chargoes of wnsonnd doctrine made ngninst him, After defining the various idons expressed by the term *worship,” ho boldly tnkos tho position that to oy that Christ is only to bo worshiped at the right hand of God is eithor *‘to deny the sacrameontal presenco of His haman na. turo in tho [Holy Eucharist,” which puts limitntions npon 1lis omniprosence, * or olse it in to ba guilty of a grave theological error,” With equal boldness hio aflirma not ouly that the Church tolerates this doctrine, but that it is *‘tho fnir and ronsonnble interpretation of hor liturgy and formularies, and when mora fully understood will ho nceepled with loving hearts by all her faithful children,” These nre the main points of Dr, Dr Kovey's statements, and they are mado in n manner which will commend him both ns n man and a Christina even to his opponents. Ho has placed himself beforo the Diocese aud the Standing Committees in a thoroughly honest nud manly position. 1fo presents tho alternative either that tho Standing Cormit- tees hnve rejected him upon insuflicient grounds, or that Le is nmenablo to trial ay n disloynl presbyter of the Church, and making this statement, which is both in the nature of an Lonest protest and manly challenge, ho leaves the Convention unhampered by any conceptions or misconception, by withdraw- ing his acceptanco of the Bishopric. Although his friends havo not insisted upon his elec- tion, this letter will always stand to Dr. D Kovex's credit s an carnest, hones!, and ologuont statement of views, TIIE EXPOSITION, The Exposition Lns now beon open a weel, ond may be said to bo in completo running ordor. ‘Tho departments are all filled, thero is mo vacant spaco in tho building, and a glanco at the grent hive of mdustry, with its inunonso acoumulations of useful and orna- mental products, its articles of art and luxu- 1y, and its collections of curiosity and scien- tific research, shows that the managers wore not out of the way in clpiming for it Buperi. ority over the Exposition of last year, and that they have made good their annonnco- ment to give the peoplo oven moro than their money’s worth. A bird's-eye view of the grent building reveals n most interesting sight. Tho entire northern half, on the main floor, is devoted to mnchinery, ropresonting nlmost every conceivablo deparimont of mechauics, with their variousproducts. Ono cntire room at the oxtreme north end of the DLuilding is filled with reapers, mowors, and harvesters in operation, in addition to gang- plows, hay-binders, and harrows. Tho re. wainder of the space is given to rowing-ma- chines, wood and iron working machines, smut-mills, flour and feed mills, nutomatio ond rotary enginos, pumps in candless arrny, miniature watch factories, and accumulations of mochanical products in flmost bowildering profusion. In the centrs, an ornamontal fountain gives n suggestion of coalness ns well 88 of besuty, with its jets and sprays. Just beyond the fountain, you come upon the household art department, with its six setaof rooms, uniquely nud artistically furnished, bofore which the averngo housekooper, who knows only uso and not art, will linger in de- spair, na sho looks upon tho elegant papor- hongings, the oxquisite pictures, tho claborate carvings in the furniture, and the quaint mo- saics and tilea which give such an antiquo appearance to the varioussots.

The muperb displays of clothing, toilettes, dry goods, carpots, millinery, upholstery, and furniture, constitute an attraction, tho fascinations of which none but the strongoest-minded females aro capablo of resisting, A little further on aro beautiful eollections of shells, aquaria filled with noble specimens of brook trout, |, and o chnte and fish way showing tho detnils of pisciculture. Tho immense departmonts of fruit and flowers complote the survoy of the main floor, and they will richly repny & visit. It mny be many yoars before such an nrray of fruit will be scen here again.

More than half of tho Btates in tho Union, therefore, sent fruit to this Exposition, and.in immense variety, ono exhibitor alone (from Masen. chosotts) showing 270 varieties of penrs, Possing from tho frnit department, tho beautiful flowers and foliage plants, em- bracing a great number of rare oxotics from tho tropics, will attract the oye.

Thero is another departmont, that of natural history and minerals, in tho west gallery, which no visitor should omit to see. The collection of ekeletons, embracing almost evarything from a mogatherium to a mouse; tho disgrams, cests, and models; the pro- served birds, fishes, and mammalia; the beautiful fossils, sen-plants, and raro .and curious ores and stones, aro of thom. selves worthy a day's inspoction.

Every whisper tends to scare them. Then the deposits represent n vast amount of pinching economy, self-deninl, and hard dustry, Tho thought of losing their littlo bard-won accumulntions {s terrible, Tho in- dividunl depositor is, s a rule, far less able to bear the loss than is tho nvorago dopositor in an ordinary bank.

"Thelr deposits wero immensely lnrge, Thelr depositors were more than 50,000 in namber, Yet they searcely folt the panic at all. The Hibernin Bank has 17,930 depositors, chief- Iy Irlsh, only 152 of whom wished to with- drnw their money, The German Bank, with 9,373 deposilors, recoived npplications from less than 100. 'Tho Fronch Bauk was troublod by only forty-seven out of 6,600 depositors, Tho corresponding figures for the other kin- dred institutions are as follows: Clay Streot Banl, deposited in Ly Amoricans, only 200 out of 10,83¢; Odd-Fellows' Bank, mos Iy Americans, ounly 160 out of 8,072 Savings Uniou, mostly Americnns, only 67 out of 6,18 dopositorn, Ahout this snmo proportion of the timid to the con- fident holds true in relation to tho smaller banks. Altogethor, out of 66,377 dopositors, only 718 fell victims to the panic and rushed for their monoy. This is less than 1} per cent. The panic-stricken aro to be punished for their fright by being denied permission to open thoir acconnts ngain, About four years ngo, the Mibernia Bank had a run upon it. When tho excitement subsided and the timid ones returned with their savings, the managers peremptorily rofused to receive thom. Opinions will diffor as {o tho wisdom of this vindictive conrse, but its imitation by all the banks now showa that 'Frisco consid- ers it to have beon a stroke of policy. There is a striking contrast between the Californin savings-banks, during the so-called gold-panic of 1873, and those east of the Mississippi during the greenback-panio of 1873.
