Otherwise the hope of fair elections in the South may as weil be abandoned for all time, ‘Tite collapse of two or thres so-called “bucket-shops” In this clty ts not an event tobe deplored, but rather an occasion for genera! rejoleing, ‘These institutions are but little above the plane vf pool-rouns, nolicy-shons, or the game of “keno.?- ‘Shey offer fucilitles for gambling to the men of small means,—the clerks and boys employed by merchants and dealers.

There is’ evidently a Inck of appreelation in the Council, aside from two or three Aldermen who have interested themselves especially, of the importance of thismatter, ‘This same subject is recelving serious attention In other cities. In Clnetn- natl, where It is under discuasion, one of the city Aldermen quoted the English statutes, which show that many yenrs ago’ the suppression of sinoke was strictly en- forced by tho genekal Inws of Parlla- ment, ‘The Railway act of the Kingdom requires that the locomotive engines shall be constructed upon the principle of consum- ing thalr own sinoke, and a penalty of £5 is Imposed for every day In which an enging Is used that falls to comply with the law, ‘There is also n general law which requires all fur- naces tn factories of any kind, whethora steam engine bo used or not, to constine the smoke generated from tho fire.

The whole amount of goki in the Imperial Bank of Germany at tho Intest reports was onty $47,000,000, and the bank ling long since re- fused to pay largo drafis In gold, Tho gold in England and France has been so heavily drawn upon to supply exports to this.cotntry that there ts deep solleltude tn botl countries ns to the threatened famine in that metal It has not escaped notice that the gold pro- duction of the world has largely fallen off of Inte years, Our gold deposits have been so Industrlously worked that last year they had fallen off to but Mette over $25,000,000, when the annual product average $50,000,000. to $14,000,000 for several = yenrs. — Slneo ism tho Atstralian product has de- ellued In nenrty the same proportion, and the mlues which In 1873 yletded $37,500,- 000 now give up nbout $17,000,000, ‘The an- nu supply of gold has suddenly fallen off Th round dgures $0 per cent, while the uses for gold, outside of coinage, have largely in- creased, particularly within the last four years. The general revival of business, de- maning an increase of the world’s money, Is encountered by this deetlie In the world's product of gold, and this fact must, and that within a short thne, havea strong foree in determining the question as to whether all untlons will not be compelled to an Literna- tloual arrangement for tha use of silver ng money upon some fixed proportion of yalue with gold. ‘The growing scarcity of gold in Europe tends of necessity. to lucrease Its value, and to depreciate the values of all other forms of properly.

The condition js phenomenal, but it may be traced by investigation to certain natural causes, s England ny be properly regarded as th world’s treasury. London has been the centre for all great monetary transactions. The surplus wealth or lonnable capital of Great Britnin exceeds that of all the other countries of Europa comblned, ‘The Bank of England holds the exchequer and governs the rete of Interest not only at home but abroad, English consols, drawing 8 per cent interest, nro now worth par for tho first the In nearly thirty years, and the current rate of Interest established by the Bank of England on call lonng Is only 2!¢ per cent. It is hero that the most’ signiiicant influences upon the money supply must be sought. England first begun.to accumulate great wealth after the terntiuntion of the war with France, or, perhaps, more correctly spenk- ing, after resumption had been declared 2 few years later. Its, chivf sonrees of wealth, then becoming’ developed for tho first thne, were conl and fron, It was with the general introduction of steam as 4 motor and the building of railroads and tron steam- ships that England untored upon fits mone tary supremacy. It had the ecal and Iron to toseli, Jt supplied the European countries with much of thelr fuel and thelr rallroad and manufacturing material, and alt their gas-works, It estabilshed vast manufacture ing enterprises of {ts own, whieh added new sources of wenlth, Money from tho profits of trade acctmulated nt n rate previously unknown, ‘The split of enterprise In the other nations of Europe and‘ the countries of the New World turned to England for assistance, ‘Tho surplus enpital of Great Britalu eagerly sought foreign investinent and commmnded high Interest. Loans ne- cumulated tH “English capital in foreign countries and British colonies amounted to not Jess thun double the British national debt, or olght billions of dollars, and tho annual Income from foreign lous was estimated at about 100,000,000 pounds sterling, or $800,- 000,000, ‘ho bull: of this interest was added to the surplus wealth from year to year During tho fifty years between 1825 nnd 1875 England's lounably’ capital was constantly and rapidly Increasing, Buta few years ago England woe shut off by various canses trom thu system of forelgn Investments which had furnished an outlet for her surplus money, The United States not merely ceased to be krent borrower, but returned to her largo suis of her borrowed money. ‘he Lurklah miurkel for Investment was closed by the In- nbility of the Turks to ‘pay the Intorest on the enpltal already advanced, Egypt no longer offered desirable Investments, The South American Govermnents showed signy of repudiating the debts they uwed already, and Moxico stopped payment, It was dis- covered that the British. colonfes were carrylng debts out of proportion to thelr population and resources, and, Russia had borrowed as much ay ‘was safe to Jend her, The progressive European nations lad built thelr railroads and fucto- ries and had bexun to accumulate surplus capital of thelrvown., The manufacturing interests of'Grent Britain had been deyel- oped to tho utmost Jimltof profit, and money began to be regurded as a glut fy the English unarket, From this (lio on Interest began to decline, ‘Three per cent consols began to ins crease In value whe English capital could no Jonger flud safe futelgn investments at 6 ord per cent; when Amerlean securities bearlng 4° per cpnad “Interest were greedily taken upat home, and soon conmmanded premium, then the Engllsh 9 per eents rap- {ely rose to par. ‘These nro tho redsons why the money supply ts redundant in England, and the operation of the same tifluences will probably bring interest In Great Britain ton sull lower figure. In the United States a somewhat different sequence of events has produced much tho samo result.

There was no investinent for {t abrond, since tho greater supply of money In England and other European coun- tries enabled the possessurs thereof to esti. Nish lower rites of interest than American capitalists would compete for; besides, tho demand for lonns had fallen of everywhere As nt consequence American rates of interest began to decline. Government rates were rechuced from 6 to 4 per cent, and 3.65 fy now the highest figure ab which refunding is dis- cussed. Municipal and private corporations which had previously paid % per cent for money were able tugveure It atGpercent. Pri- vate borrowers who had been paylug from8to 10 per cent were able to renew thelr loans or make new ones at from Oto 7 percent. The rates on call toans were reduced from 5 to 3 percent, Ant now surplus American cnpl- tal Is seeking profitable investment on all sides. It is golug rapidly into new rallronds and oxtensions and tinprovements of those already bullt, The prospect is that within the next five years the development of tho country will proceed at arate which was un- paralleled even during the half-dozen yeurs preceding the panic of 1873, ‘tho present outlook Is that the rates of. interest on lonnable capital will continue to’, decline still further... ‘his prospect promises R prosperous perlod for some tine to come, Tt will nusure a more Mberal expenditure In publle and private enterprises, It will ma- terlally lessen the burden to every man who is now In debt, It will encourage buliding of all kinds, It will cnhance the vatue of reat estate In even Inrger proportion than the value of tho improvements that shall bo added, It will help tha farmers, the Inbor- ers, and the poor'men to enjoy more of the comforts‘ of this life than they have had heretofore, It will Induce ‘tho rich men to spentl thelr money more freely, both for per sonal gratification and for the publle benelit, The endownents of public charities and of Institutions of leatnhyz ant art will be moro frequent and liberal. The Government Itself ‘will tho more readily undertake vast schemes of public hnproveinents. | All these new en- terprises will make work plenty and wages higher, ‘Tho present condition ot things foreensts general ind generous: prosperity for muny years to vome; It 1s to be‘ hoped ‘that it may be enjoyed witliant' int excess of Indulgence which’! yuu surely bring reaction and panle, i A THREATENED REVOLUTION IN NAVAL ARCHITECTURE, : ‘Ine construction’ of the now fron war yaent Livadla, recently built on the Clyde for the Czar of Russia, and the success which has alrendy attended its exporimental trips, would seem to indicate that we are on tho vergo ofa thorough revolution In naval ar chiteeture. Lifithorto all shipbullders hiave proceeded upon the assumption that thethres fundamental requisits of a vessel are length, narrowness of beam, and depth of hold. ‘The tests as applied to the Livadia show that this nastmuption Is wrong and that the requisits arélength, brendth, and light draft. ‘The Canr's yacht is constructed upon these prin- elples, and whest the models and mensure- ments as made by the Russian engineer were submitted to the Clyde shipbuilders they Inughed at them and predicted not only that such n vessel could not stand heavy sens, but that she could not make any mnterinl head- way, whateyer her propelling power. ‘They wentahend, however, and built the vessel, and when she was launched aud steamed down the Clyde out into-the Irish Channel, passing everything on the way, and meeting with no apparent resistance fram tho sen, they looked on with astonishment, almost doubting tho ovidenco of thelr own senses. ‘The Livadia ds shaped very nearly on the model of asoup- tureen, Perhaps a better iustration would bo a ‘duck,—whieh fowl, skimming atong swiftly und easily on the tap of the waves, may have suggested tho {den to the Russian designer, ‘The Czar’s yacht is 235 feat in Jength and 163 feet In breadth, so that her’ breadth Is about two-thirds her length, and? is fully four thes ag wile ns an ordinary. ocean steamer, Lf four of our large-sized lnke propellers could be Inshed or bound to- gethor Inte. ona common framework this “feet” might give some iden of the relative whithto her length of tho Livadia, ‘The hull, whiehissteel-etad, Is only avout six feet above | the waterline, tho sprea above that boing devoted to sumptuous cabins, corridors, and aupartnents for the use of the Reyal fanily, and, ag she draws but suven fect of water, and her bottom fs flat, and without any kuel to spoak of, it wl ba seon “that sho moves tupon'the surface of the water Ikea plank or raft, and thus dows not encounter the tre- mendous fores and resistance of tho waves which seagoing vessels submerged from twenty-ilve to thirty teet Jn the water haya tocncounter, Any ono who lias soiled the seas knows tho fearful forcoof these waves in a storm, and thomannerin whieh ordinary vessels pltel ond roll In tholr efforts to plunge through and overcome the trémen- dous resistance, describing angles ahy where from 25 degroes to right angles,.; but, the Livadia, while In tho Buy. of Biscay, one of the stormiest places in tho world, encountered 9 full Bisenyargale, antl yot tho angle of her rofl was never above 4 degrees, nor the qngfe of yyt Plich above 5 degrees! Oygobsiier npsscnyers, writing to the Londuipdtangg, says: “er bobavlor was fay supertor dn every way to that of vessels of ordtnury construction, ‘Thediuner-table was served’ Just as if tho ship wore at anchor In port, at the full hight of the galo; the broad coyered gallery, which oxtends all round the open deck, was never reached by the sea, and hardly by the spray, except at the hight of thg storm.” ‘Thu lightness of the vessel, her buoyaney, her enormots Mfting power, tho ease with which she sails slong Uie surface, and tho fimmunity of her fat bottom from tho pounding of the wayes, are not, her only geod qualities, With her powerful engines aud two large propellers, one on efther side of her rudder, sho can enally stenin sixteen knots (elghteen miles) por hour, which ts equal to the maximum speed of the swittest 1 wartvessets, and couslderably boyond that of comercial vessels.‘ ‘Tho success of tho’ Livadla opens up the prospect of a complete revyolutlon in tha sclunce of marini architecture, and nist have a powerfitl influence tn changing. the methods of navigation aud transportation, When yeasels como to be constructed upon the model of the Liyadin, tho terrors of ao sen voyage, and even its discomforts, are re- duced to tho minimum. The passage of tho ocean in whiter or In its moat stormy periods eft be made with comparative comfort and lmmutity from danger, and passengers, Hy- ing In n tloating hotel ns it were, upon tho surface of the sua, will also avold the ce: poste of health nnd the wretehed discom- forts arising from riding in the hold of a ves- sel, with its impure aly and bad ventilation, For war purposes also vessels of this class will revolutionize tho present methods, Strongly atmored with ° steel, swift salters, aceurate ffi oranges and fir ing, tice tle afm “of «tho gunner is not Interfered with by tha plunging of. the eraft, rising but nshort distance out of the water,—for the superstructure of the Livadia woukl not bo aecessury,—and able by thelr light draft to fun close In shore, they would be powerful engines of destruction. Their entrylng’ oye will also be very great. A vessel like fie Livadia ean curry from 6,000 tog,v0 Wunbs/or a brigado of artillery with Its sung, and enstly land them, and it ndils to thelr effoctiveness that thay ent be {ierensed to al- mostany size, stneo tho longer and broader they are the safer they are.
