The Directors of our own Board devoted conalderable time to its cousidera- tion, andl replied to its elster organizatfon In New York that at this thine It was Inexpedient totake anyaction. In communicating this resolve Sec- retary Randolph suggested uit an excellent entering wedeu could beahtained by the paseuge of an act of Congress ordering the purchase by the cental of all Government supplics sold by dry measure, and alsy the osscesment, of all duties on the same plow, For years the grain trade of Calitornia—par- teularly in wheat—has been couducted on the basis of the uult of measuro, and the same grain on reaching Liverpool is bought and sold on the same plan. At interior poluts in Can- ada, Where the dellve’ ies trom farmers’ wagons are quite large, the cental syetemn prevails, and. alt quotations are made on thut basis, ANOUT THIRTEEN YEARS AGO the Albany Board ot Trade took up the ques- on and eutercad into correspondence with alt the sister Bonrds olong the Hnu of the great Inkes, The proposition seemed to mect with generat approbation ss a matter of theory, and [n December, 1800, reaolutiona were adapt- ed by the Boards of Chicago, Milwaukee, Tole- do, Cleveland, und Buffalo formally authoriz- Ing {tg adoption, and specifying the ensuing lst of March as the time’ for it tu go into effect. ‘The old members of the Chicago Board will re- member the confusion ‘that ensued on the first tivo or three days, it was ensy enough to make the calentations so far ns'wheat was concerned, but when {t caine to corn, oats, rye, and bar- Tey, the problem = beeame ao little more involved, und thera was much grumbling over the compounding ‘of fractious, ‘The brokers at once kicked agafust the scheme, ‘Their commiseiona werelonthe basis of the bushel, and naturally endugh they declined to purchase or sell by the eertal for the same com- inission, While they werd ‘satistled to purchase by the bushel for one-ci¢hth of one cent com- mission, they thoughe it was aking a Hittlo too much or biy anywhere from twice to threo times the quantity. of gfain an expressed fn centals for the same tnoney, ‘The sealpers, who speculated from day today, turnliyg thelr deals elther way fit ‘the prolit of one-eighth to one-fourth cent per bushel, objected because it took larger margins tocarry.a 6,000 ceotal ivt thau one of 5,000 bushels, ‘Then the elevifor.men were not in hearty syinpathy with thd'change. In Milwau- kee, it memory be corrcet," the’ warehousemen absolutely refused to absdbn the'old way, and. the result was thit thelr brethren here wero compelled to act Nkowiset 1.

Some think that in the country the plan would not work well, for the reason that the farmers and sinali dealers thoroughly comprehend what is the exact amount of 4 bushel, but they would. be greatly at sea in making'an estiinate on 100 pounds, THE ARGUMENTS IN PAYOR of the cental aro those whieh concur. in pro- wounelng the decimal rystem the best In the world. dweily years ago, when the Atnerican system of coinage was Introduced {uto Canada, where the people had been aveus- tomed for years to the pound sterling of Eu- glind, the pound currency of Halifax, and. the dollurs, shillings, ud sixpences uf New York Stowe, {twas Seared that an era of confusion would be the result. For a few weeks, provubly in all nut to exceed threo months, the people ta the rural districts were very much put out with the new order of things, butas they gradually learned the .valuo of the “dollar as the unit, und its divisibitity by teo, the Inconventence wore’ away, and now It would be almost an Impossibility to find a Cunadion farmer who would go back to the old system of selling ils wheat by the bushel, und Higurlng out ite value tu pounds, shillings, and pence, Had the cental system, whon introduced on our Board of ‘Trado twelve years ago, been given a three or four months? trial, there f3 acarcely a Goudt but what tt would now be the uult of dry measure Instead ofthe bushel all over the United States, TITE JUSTICHS, GLEANING A LITTLE INFORMATION, Areporter in his meanderings yesterday ran across n nan who tooked aa theugh he ought to know somethIng about affairs at Springileld, and especially about the appolutment of Justices of the Peace. To him uw plaintive appeal wae made, It brought out the atute- ment that there was much uncertainty about the appolutments because of the vigor and varioty of the flehts that are being made agaiuet certaln nominees, and in behalf of some candidates who were disrecarded bv the Judges. Almost avery candidate for the office, sald THe Tniwune's tnformant, had some friends who were enlleted tn lis behalf, both at Springfeld and In Chicago, Many and severe were the lettera that were buing written to the Governor by mun In thts city, aud loud were the complaints of tho Senators at the Cupttal. ‘The Germans were, it seemed, making a strong fleht for repre: sentation, They regarded the nominations of Justices Kaufmann, Volluk, and Eberhardt as more fn conciliation of the feraclitish demands than in the German futerest, ‘The three men named were tiermans, to be gure, but [er brews till, and thelr appointment could uot bo sald to sathefy the *pluja German’? element, ‘The number of Irleh recomueuded was ots minds a ground of complaint. The objections uguinst individuals were o6 numerous as the in divuulé themuclyes, though many of them were Rroundiesa, “Do you think,” asked the reporter, “ that the ticket sent down by the Judges will go throaghit! “No, (do not,” said Nemo." Thera are strong movements against some of them, It does tot seem to ine, juuging froin the state of uilud at Springheld, that Mr. Sullivan on the North Side will ba | confirmed. _ ‘there ig much said agamar him. ‘The Justices who Were not renomivated stand no chance of appolutment. ‘Theu there isa strong dght on Joseph Pollak bycause of lus natiouality wud fur ® og otter reasons, Some personsaro making a kick against Justice Foote, but that fs mostly from fhe Mike Evans gang and men who are used unwittlugiy by that. crowd. “I do not think that shistico ‘Pollak will go in, Taness D, Harry Hammer and Mr. Brayton are all right, aud I think that Justicea Meech and Wallace need have no fears. Justices Scully nnd Matson are aaid to be all right bn the West Side, but there Is a strike agalust Justice Morrtson—I don't know what for,—and ngalnet {horharde on account of his na- tionality, On the North Side: Justice Wilson seams to beaecure, ‘There is the same “Ger- man vs. dow" cry about Kaufmann, Sullivan, asI satd before, has much opposition. ‘There [8 not much said againat the rest of the Judges’ nominees except on tha Irish question, and 1 Understand that the Republican Senators and Representatives from tho West Side are looking about for a Republican Amertean to take the placo of Tom Barratt." * Such, fo brief, are tho views of a man who canyasscd the altuation and professes to know of what ha speaks, it is tot genoralty known that the Hon.
