Ar the anti-slavery banquet in Paris May 5, which Gambetta attended and addressed, M* Schoelcher, the eclebrated agitator of eman- cipation In the French coloiles, made sone interesting statements, Ho sald thut slavery «wis still a flourishing weed, Its greatest stronghold is Egypt. Eighty thousand is the yearly average of negro exportation, ‘To sucure this mtumberof blacks the tra scl upon at, least 400,000, ‘The 220,000 who are » hot taken abrond avo killed or die. M. Schoelcher, whe has peen christened “Tho Wlberforce of France,” presided at tho bane quet, and was very energetic in calling upon the French Government to put a stop to this barbarous trafle in Egypt. Tho Government. had the power to do so, hu said, since the Viccray depended on’ the gout pleasure of France and England, . Tnx most careful estimates put the cotton crop of hist year at 0,400,000 bales, or nearly a million and a half bates more than the splendid crop of 1370. ‘Lhe greatest crop aver ralsert nader sinvory was that of 180, * whieh fell about 1,600,000 bales. short of the eld of Inst year, ‘The Southern people aaye not only raised tore cotton under freedom that wit a systent of sinve-Inbor, aut they havo realized higher net. prices, They are in w better condition Suancially shan they were In before the War. They wo less money to thelr faetors, Their plantations are better kept aud better cultl- rated. ‘fhey live less personal responsi- billty than before, and moro time to devote to their plensurs and Improvement, It 1s no wonder the Southorn people aro beginning fo admit that the War was a gigantic blunder on their part, und to bless the, day when they were relloved of thelr slaves by the strony arm. ‘Tie silly season at Washington always de- No- body need be surprised, thorefore, by the re ports that Bialne and Mav Vengh are abuut to come to an open rupture, oF that anybody $s erieving over the rejection of Chandler's nom- ination as Salicltor-General. ‘Tho rejection of that nomfnatiou is not a calamity, and tt should not be considered a hardship by any- body, It will probably result: tn making Chandler Senator from Now Hampshire, so that he hag no just eansuforcompiint.

Nor do wo at all credit tho tumor that the President Js dissatistied with Mr. MaeVengh's conduct, Mr. MacVeagh was an original Garfield man at Chicago, and kas been thoroughly loynl to the Adminis. katlonover since, Me fs ane of tho bralnieat and most courageous mon In the Cable net, Next to Mr, Ulaiue, tho President could better spare the services of any ment- ber of his Cabinet than those of Mr, Muc- Veagh, It is probable that the Secretary of: Btato and the Attorney-General know and respect the Inportance of encl,to the other, and of both tothe Administration, They are too wise to quarrel for @ sinall reason; and they never huve had the shadow of a big reason yet. UTine Legisiature two years azo provided by luw that the assessment of real estuto for taxation made in 1880 should remain In foreco for four years, ‘The present Legistature has passed a law repealing this proviston, Tho repeating act, If it be approved by the Goy- ernor, Isto take effect July 1. ‘Tho assess- ment of 188t will be completed, so far as tho work of the Assessors Is concerned, In a fow ways, and It will be complated by the State Board of Equalization in September next, Sotho taxcs for 1881, which will fall dua in January, 1882, and be collected {1 1889, will be unaffected by the repeal. It is wnder- stood tliat the object of the repealing law was to reach this county with an assessment in Tos3 that will bu much heavier than that of 1581, und the members outside of this city, true to the old notionthat Chicago ought to pay all tho tuxes, voted to make a newattuck upon Cook County, ‘Tis achome has recelved con- siderable support in this elty. ‘Lhe revenue of the city is, of course, Ihuited by the ag- gregute of the assessed valuation of tho tax- able property. ‘Tho Incroase of thu nasess- Swat by the addition of ono hundred aill- fons of dollars jill enable the City Connell to iInerense the appropriations for city pir poses two mlllions of dollars annuatiy, add- ing that much to the city tax, and niso en- abling the county to go into a more Nberal system of exptuiditures, Tho purpose of this repealing bill is to enable the Cily and County Goyernmonts to add from two to threo millions of dollars to. the annual tax levy of this city and county. Whether this result will be ft fact nécomplishad aan only depend on the future, The bill fs in the hands of the Govurnor, who, It ts probable, will incline unto the prayers of tho remorse- less tax-eaters who are clamoring for Iarger dividends, —_—_———— Tir Legistature of Ninols adjourned yes” terday, after nsession beginning in the first week of January, Wo regrot that wo cannot say that the Legisinture lins earned the ap- plause or respect of tho people of the Stata, It hag. been n Wasteful aud extravagant Bes- ston, at least twice aa long as there was. nny ocension for, and the legislation itself has, with small exception, been olther tnconse- quential or victoita, At the anme time, the people of the State inva grent catise to con- gratulate themselves that the bulk of the lex- [statlon proposed ‘and most Inboriously sup ported falled to.pass. ‘The two Houses ad- Journed without having passed either tho Congressional or Logisintive Apportionment bill, ‘This will necessiinte a special session to he called by the Governor, but the public have tho protection afforded by tho Constitu- tion, that there can be no legislation nt tho called session saye on such subjects ns the Governor may designate in his proclamation, es Mr. BB.

Ifenow halls the late sentor Senator from New York ngs tho Sir Galnhad of tho nuti-monopoly cause. Yet, if mentory serves, it 1s not so long’ since this same Thurber was nusalling Conkling ns the tool of the rallroad corpora- tions. in an article printed tn Scribner's Monthty for Devember, 1880, Thurber re- fleeted soverely on Mr. Conkling’s conduct in accepting 0 retainer In the tax case of tha New York Central vs. ‘Tho Government, and” particularly for flinging iis polltical Inilu- gitea into the scales for his client, Mr. Thur- ber wrote ns follows im that articl The benrlny of political Intluonce upon this case was so obyions that tt Was commented on at tho tine hy several newspapers, among othors tho Utter Observer, nx folluwa: “Now, when Mr. Conkling went fiown to Cunandalgua to try this rallroad cnse, be curried with him a erenter politlent titiuence than ayy ether man in our Btute wields., He aupeared before a Judge whom he bad glevated to the Bonch only a few months: before. Le confronted a District-Atturnay who gould not hold oftice for a duy tf Mr. Conkling aaould demand his removal. He accured a ver Aict which tho jury was forced to rendor by the rulings of tho dtdge. Unider that verdict tho rillroad recovers a round half-million, which it ought hive lost but for (ts shrowdncas tn em. plosing tho rlzht nian to prosecute its claim.” ‘Mr. Conkiing's “ usefulness” to the rallrond company In that cage ceased tha moment tha ense was taken out of tho State of New York { 4 Court not constituted of lis creatures, The Govermment appealed to the Supreme Colirt df the United States, and the Judgment was reversed by the unanimous’ opinton of that Court, so that tho railroad company did not recover Ms round halt million, In the Hght of thosa facts Mr. Conkling's record ns an antl-monopolist does not seom to be luminous at all polnts, SHORT OF WHEAT, It ns come to be regarded asa sotticd fact, In regent yours, that the United States isn producer of sttrplus wheat. ‘Che area of wheat culture 18 so whtlo Usat tis supposed a general fallure is inypossible, and that n large export surplus can be counted on annually agncertalaty. Western Europo absolutely de- pends upon us for'n considerable portion ofits daily bread, nnd the question, “Tow much?” or rather the answer to It, 1s what determines the price of bread on both sides of the Atlan- tle, Itisdifleult to estimate the extent of tho commercial fuctuation and of popular dis- {réss thet would cnsuc on the extinction of our wheat surplus for nsinglo yenr—nand especially If we could not send maize across the ocean to partlally fill the told, It now looks ns If we shall have to look some such condition of things squarely in the face, ‘The commercial world is not at present assured of this, and a good many peoply who aro usually well Informed us- sert their belief thatthe United States will produce as much whent In 1881 a3 in any for- mor yenr, Sone of them giyo as a reason the general appearance of things, and others fall Lack on the breadth of arca devoted to wheat-éutture, with the admitted fact that widespread cronkings in 1870 and 1850 wore followed by bg crops, Hut there fs more of systematic observation now than ever before. Indeed, the Judgment of the future of a whent crop may be said to be now redueed ton sclonce, Capital has impressed keen eyes {nto Its sorviee and sent them ont all over the United States, or at Idnst all ovor those areas in which wheat-eculture is a sige nifleant Industry, ‘Lhe reports of these agents aro collected and compared and weighed with a colerity to which tho oflictal bureau Is a stranger, and reasoned on with, Qu ncutencss that Is seldom developed except whon © there’s millions in it?” to be won or lost, according ag the Judgment proves to be right or wrong. It is well known to many partics In tho trade thot heavy enplitalists have recently: {uvestigated tho present situation In wheat, and the prospects for the next crop. ‘Tug ‘Thinuny has tuken somo pains to ascertain the conclusions nt which they have arrlyed, and feels It to be a duty to present those con- clustons—of course without vouching for thelr accuracy, ‘Choy are, brlelly, as follows: “1. Tho wiuter-wheat crop of the whote United States will not aggregate more than two-thirds tho yluld of Inst year, 2 ‘Tho verenga uow sown to spring wheat ig 90 por cent logs than in 1880; tho yleld por nere proimtsing to bo not greater this year that Inst. 3, Only about seven snd o hale million bushels of whont remaly in the hands of wultlers and In elevators In. the country; and not more than one-third of tht quantity will reach our Inke ports, unicas prices should advance so much as to Induce millers to ap thelr reserves instead of grinding the, gruln, If these eatinintes bo correct, the situstion resolves itself into this: Wo have onough wheat on hand to supply our own needs up to next harvest, and that harvest will supply all the wheat wanted for bread and secd in the United States during the noxt crop-year, But nothing more! Not a bushel forexport! he 150,000,000 bushels of deficiency from Jast year’s yluld 1s barely equal to the quantity exported in wheat and flour, Anything exported after this date will be unnecessarily parted with,—literally a sharing of our own loat with people who want it ag badly as ourselves, or worse, ‘Tnero ta nothing In this sot of elroum- stances, per se, to Justify extraordinarily high prices for bread inthe United Stutes, But there maybe a secondary couse, the foree of which cannot be measured. Just how much England ond France will bid for bread, and thus alsa tho price here, depends upon the yleld of their own harvests, the increased supplles watch “tho onhancement of buyers' views" with bring out from other countries, gud tho extent to which the people aro willing to fall back upon Amertean and Danubian corn (maize) as substitute for wheat. They havo hithertu regarded It with aversion as an article of human food, but might be induced to uso ft freely, if mado ncquatnted with Its value, Should the do- veloping facts warrant, within a fow weoks, the above-noted conelusions in regard to a shortage in our whent yleld, some of our Western States may seo tha way clear to act on n suggestion made in our Inst annual re- view. ‘That was to send out Commissioners, in the shape of cooks, to show the people of England how to ninke cor-bread and hasty- pudding for themselves. Such a coursy would not only help our corn-growing {n- dustry in future years, but would be of fn- mense benefit to the whole bread-consuming world, in cherking the march of prices to an unreasonably high point, ees THE CONTEST AT ALBANY, ‘The contest over the New York vacaneles in tho United States Senate begins In earnest to-lay at Albany, when the first vote will bo takon. ‘Tho sltuation is so complicnted and uncértaln that: propheey in regard to the re- sult is extremely hazardous, but none of the possibilities seem to inelude tho return of Conkling except through a trade with the Democrats, which is certainly fmprobable. Ithas been suggested that when Mr. Conk- ling’s adherents shall satisfy themselves that he cannot be revlected, thoy will join the Democrats in voting 9 atne-dle adjournment, The effect of this would be to postpone the election ty a called session In the fall In caso tho Governor should sce fit to call an extra session, or to give the people at the fall elec Uon tho privileme of choosing a new Legisio- ture upon the direct Issuo of tha’ Senatorial succession. Itisdoubttul, however, whother any such program ean be enrried ont, be enuse tho Conkling members of the New York Senate will need the codperation of all the Democratic members of that body to make tho plan successful, Morcover, tho United States Iaw governing the election of United States Senators requires continuous bulloting after it has once begun until o Senator shall be chosen. It says (Sec. 15 R, %.) that “ Lf no person shall receive such ma- Jority on the first doy, the joint nssembly shall mest nt 12 o'clock m, of each succecd- ing day during tho session of the Legisinture, and shall take at Jenst ono vote, until s Sen- ator {s elected.” ‘The law in regard to va- eanctes provides (See, 17 2. 8.) that “ When- over, during tho session of tho Legislature of any State, tt vacancy occurs In the representa- tlon of such State In the Senate, altar pro- ecedlugs to fll such vacancy shall be had on the second Tuesday after the Legisiature lias organized and has notice of such vacnn- cy.” Of course thore Is no power to hold tha Legislature together If a majority of both Tlouses agree to an adjournment according tothe terms of the New York Constitution, but respect for tho Inws of the United States, and apprehension that any election of Sen- ators ata enlled session after adjournment wlghtbe dtsputed, may restrain a majority from violating the plain Instruction of the United States statute, Ifa dendlock shall result nnd continuo In- definitly, It will almost surely mean the de- fent of the two ex-Senators who crented all tho trouble by resigning. ‘The Adiinistra- tion Republicans in the Legislature will then have made the hardest part of thelr fight, and there wili be no temptation to them to yleld, Mr, Conkling will boon hand to so- Uecit votes, but he will not have lls former backing of patronnge, nor will ho be able to mennce with excluston from office those who oppose him. It may bo that the “personal magnetism” which the ex-Senntor tins been credited with will not prove so effective when not supplemented by the power of patronage, 1t {s known that, If Mr. Conk- Ing be returned to the Senate, his Influence with the appointing power during tho noxt three years will bo nil. It 1s equally cortain that, if Mr, Conkling be not elected to the San- ate, he will have no official {ryorsto bestow. Hence tho balt of oflice whieh he has ustd with so mutch success heretofore will not bring any converts to his net if he fail at the outset, If It be true that Gov. Cornoll is even lukewarm towards Mr, Conkling’s re- election, then the ehnnees ary Inrgely In favor of an carly abandonment of Coukllng’s pre- tenstons, andan agreement sinong the Re- publieangs upon two mon who shall fairly represent both wings of the party. It is pretty well known that Mr. Conkling would not permit Gov. Cornell to be n candidate at the tine Mr. Platt was elected a fow wooks ago; If Gov. Cornell should secure aoft- erallthe term which Piatt was elected to fill, and thereby be the means of shutting out. Conkling as well, the ease would look very like retributive justice, if that doctrine fs recognized In polities, . Tho prospeet of n successful conlltion -bo- tween the Conkling men and the Democrats is highly improbable. The Democrats will not give way oxcopt to gnin a party ad- vantage. ‘Thelr codperntion could only be secured by the snerifico of Mr, Platt to make room for a Demo- erat. Perhaps Mr. Conkling would not hesitate at that, though It would be yery awkward for him In view of his repented and solemn declarations that he and Platt must stand or fall toguthor, Lt would be equally awkward for the Democrats to assent ton barguln of this kind just after the party lead- ers In tho Senate have been denouncing bar- galing and trades In the most vlolent manner, But there ty another consideration which Tenders any such outcome highly Improbable, The Republicans nave a large majority {nthe Legtstnture, and conaequontly the power to return two Ropublicans to tha United States Sennte, Conkling is tho only stumbling-block in the way of dotng this. If, under these conditions, the Conkling members should as- slat In the election of a Damocratle Senator m2 order to secure tho election of thotr favorit as an antl-Adniluistration Independent under obligntion to the Demovrats for his election, it would bo tho thost Infamous polltionl dickor over transacted In this country, and the Hopub- Neans who should act as partis to this trade would be politically damned forever, Itmay bo doubted whather even Conkling himself Is 80 desperate as to advise or consent to such Bn arrangement, Tho decent and propor way out of the diloma Conkling hag brought upon the Now York Loglslature ts for him to withdraw, ‘This may bo the ulthmate ‘solution, though Conkling will not accopt 16 uutll nothing else shall bo left for hins to do, and then there will bo no merit or glory in it for him, With Conkling out of the way, Platt would soon be swallowed up In the wake of his depart- ure. Thon the Republican majority in the Legislature would find It ensy to unite upon two men who should do credit to the State, fairly represent both fa¥tions, and thus pro- pare tho way for enduriug harmony, 'Thore seems to be nothing but disgrace In sture for Conkling In any ease, If lo shall be able by any hook or crook to secure reviectlon the bargain will completely neutralize all the prestige of bis past carver, and it will be o deathblow to his fut- ure, If he shall compel an adjournment of the Legislature because he cannot be elected now, such a result will Hkewise bo due to a bargaln, and will risk the chotce of a Democratic Legislature and the election of two Domocratic Senators, If he sball fail both of election and In compelling au ad- journment, and If two Republicans shat! be Clected by tho resent Loulslature to take tho seats which hoe atl Platt yacntad, lia defeat H will be humntiating and crushing, Lt seems ta be too inte for Conkling to save IMs good name by any course+which is now open to him, and this {sn reason for believing that he will not heslinte at anything which prom. ises to assist him in the coveted election. On the other hand, desperation and unsern- pulotsness fn this Instances alve no sign of commensurate power, and Conkling's ability for mischiof Is probably not equal to hia tne clinntion, —_—_— ETERNAL PUNISHMENT AND REFORMED EPISCOPALIANISM.

PUBLIO OHARITIES, Judgo Allison, of one of the Philadelphia Courts, ono day Inst week admipistered a aeathing rebuke to the system of organized and endowed public charities so ostentatious- ly paraded in that and other Inrge cities of the country. Thecase before him wns that of an unmarried woman, 19 yents of age, charged with the murder of her infant child. ‘The girl lived with o man named Aarons, ex- peeting to be marrlyd to him, but was de- serted by him and left ponniless and tu doll- eate health, She was found by a girl of her own age who gave her lodging and food for awhile, as long as she was permitted to do so, when she had to go Into thu strect.

The details of the retrogresstye action of the Czar in abandoning the constitutional re- forms he foreshadowed swhon he ascended the throna are full of Interest. ‘The foreign malls show that he aroused tho hope all over Europa that he was about to restore order and pence, Tho dissipation of this hope ts attended not only by expressions of regrot on all sides,but also by the conviction that he has made o serious mistake at the very out- set, and one that must impel Russia forward into revolution. The Ministers whom he called about him, the adoption of minor mensures of reform, particularly the ukase providing for very liberal agrarian measures and the discussion of n modified form of constitutional government in tho Council of Ministers, aroused the hope that brighter days were In store for Russia, when suddan- ty amanifesto appeared. from tho Czar, bo- Huved in many quarters to. have been in- spired by the suggestions of Count Bis- marck, which rudely dissipated the hope. The Innguage of the manifesto Is unmistakable 1 Its meaning, Tho Czar thorein declares his “unshaken faith In the strength and justice of. the autocratio power which we have beon called upon to support and preseryé for the people's good fromall Impalrinentand injury? Alexauder IL hinself could not have declared more explieltiy against constitutional progress, It crushed all hope with one sweeping blow at atime when the Ozar had given his people reason to believe thut thelr condition was to be bettered, and that they wore to have sume yoico in the Government, ‘The renctidnists were victorious in their influence over tho Czar, and all that Gen. Molikoif, Abaza, tho Minister of Finance, Milutin, the Minister of War, Nicolal, the Minister of Public In- struction, aud Giers, the Mintstor of Foreign Affairs, who bad been warm advocates of constltutionnt reform, could do was to re- sign. ‘Che most direct cause of this sudden change Is thus stated by the London “ines, and tho statemont is confirmed by othor lm- portant papers: ‘This sudden tocol from liberal {deas is aua- ceptible, it may bo feared, of a too wusy uxptns nation, Tho Nibilists, undismuyed by the most ruthless repreasive meagures, continue to threaten tho Crar and all his family with the most fearful porultiog, Thoir mouaces hava shuuken tho apiritol the Etupross,—fuartul for the lives of bor busband and hor chitdren,—and through her bave warped the purposo and wenkonel tho willof the Emperor, ‘These ara uatural aud oven respectable emotions; but a unin stanaing In the position of Atuxander III. mist show himsglf auperlor to the ularmy of fumily life.

On tho 18th of May, Gen. Ignatioff entered upon his duties as Minister of the Interior in the place of Gon, Melikoff, and, after reor- gnulzlng the Ministry, Issued a elreular to the Governors of Provinces settlng forth the policy of the Government. If there wero any doubt agsto the Czar’s intentions ex- pressed in his manifesto to continua the autocratic and traditional policy of his father, that doubt was removed by tho clrcular of Ignatieff, which rends as follows: , Tho manifesto ot tho 1ith of May indientod tho pus, whioh the Govornment Intended to pure sue for the greatness and welfare of Rusala, The origin of tho terrible doods which have startled tho wholo world by tholr atrooity must be sousht, not only in tho util minds of tho perpetrators, but deoper in the nuaunce of rollglous und mora! principles in the education of tha children, In tho culpable negligence and apathy of many Government and sovinl officials, and in the franduicut. proceedings of the ultictals who ure charged with the State and pubile funda, In regard to tho extirpation of the seditious spirit with which the country is fm prepnutod, it isonly by tho autocrat, strong in tho loyalty and unbounded devotion of bis inany wililion subjects, and in the Indissulubte alliance with thom, that this heavy burden ean bo res moved and tho Gnormous tisk be accomplished. rhe Czar summons ug all to nid In the work, and At tho samo time indicates the path along which we are to proceed, ‘Lhe pringipal energy of the Government will ba directed to tho eradleation. of sedition, Tho Russlan nobles have always. answoreil to tho yolue of justiga und honor, in this troublesome hour there { no doubt that this cl will readily answer tho summons of tho Canr, Tho peasuntry, noted Yor their devotion and foynity, niist pny no beod to wild rumors, and must rest in the hopo that the Government will tuke tho necossary steps to ainoliorate thoir condition und satiety thole economical requires ments. ' From whatever cause the Czar may havo acted, whethor from family considerations or from the advice of other counselors, it fs asigu of weaktess atter once having put his fund to the plow to turn back agalu, ant bodes no good for the peace of his Empire, It cannot but arouso a renewed and more dletermfned opposition than ever to him, and develop more deadly struggle than over before between gutocracy and revolution. ‘Tho fanaticism of rebellion will brenk out In new excesses and with moru dreadful effects tun have yot boon witnessed, ‘The truce botweon the Nihilists and the Government is at an ond. Tho Czar hos glyon them nothing to hopo in the way of tho constitu- Uonal reform they asked for, and as thoy have nothing to hopo for In mercy or clemency they will renow their strife with increased savagery and the torrible fonatielsm of desperate mon. Blsmarck’a inny have been the influence which led the Czar to take thia fatal step, but the iuflxential Borin papers look forward te the coming strugalo with foolings ot pity, Ono of them, the Tayeblatt, graphically says: " Puor Cearl “How friglittal for his people and for Dimself $f his car, stilt deafened by the late exploston, has mistaken the volco of God! » « » Adlark fate rests on the house of the Romanoff, and theapprohunalon forces Itself upon us that In view of tho past horrors this uow ‘Emporia! manifesto may probably be- come the windIng-shect of qutocratic power in Russia.” ‘This sentlment will Gnd a re- sponsive echo In almost every part of the world where constitutlonal government has lade any progress. —_—— Gnravvuary Italy seums to come to the conclusion that she camo tuo Jats into Tunis, und that sho might as well consolo borsvlf with Vripoll.
