Lt ix belleved that the decrense In the supply fully warrants the hlelt prices now feached, and many hold that quotations fre bound to go much higher yet. In order to help ton better understanding of the situation, we haye compiled from the annual review by Tk Trimese conmmerctal department the avernges of apcele prices on three leading stavles. For thoeleht years ending with 1880 the average was $1.00!¢ pur bushel on wheat and 43 ents per bushel on corm. For the seven years ending with 1880 tho average price of lurd in specie wns $}¢ cents por pound. Our present prices for September are, wheat $1.25, corn 63 cents, lard 1g cents, betne an average per cent ‘of Incrense of 24!¢ in wheat, 4651 corn, and in lard over and above the averages for the years given. - Yhe yleld of the pres- ent year fs, roughly stated, net far from equal to tho average protluetion of that period. ‘She average for wheat was sabout 300,000,000 and for. corn. 1,275,000,003 bushels, Our population has inerensed divs ing the olght years soma 25 per cont (or more than ten milllons of mouths), butis now scarcely 15 per cent greater than the average of the period, ‘Chere is nothing, therefore, In these facts, taken by thomselyes, to Justify. auyttiing Ike so much of an Increase right at tho beginning of 8 cereal year, and when the hog crop of, the West Is massing In prepitration for aimarch npon our paoking- houses In the coming winter. ‘The facts lust noted would scem to Justify a present basts of about $1.16 for whent, 50 cents for corn, and 1014 cents for lard In tits market. But thore are other facts to be taken Into the account, In tho first place the grenter abundance of money cheapens it, so thats given number of gold or sliver dollars have not as much purelinslyg power ns thoy hed when renl money was tess plentiful. Peaplo are content now to pay more for realestate, for Iron and coal, lumber and clothing; and it'can scarcely be otherwise than that the leveling-uy of prices should axtend to articles of food. ‘Then there is the ggnye question of stpply to tho’ food necessities of tha Olt World, which are ever un the Suerense, though the, demand hns minor potnts of maxima and. mintua. It dees not now seem probable that Western Europo will want as witeh gral oud flour from us this cerenl: yenr as she did last, but will want fully all that we huve to spare. In regard to hog product the Eu repean demand has already fallen off to a vory great extent since tho era of high pYices set In; and {t does not seem Iikely to return to {ts old volumo tll we return to lower prices. The people of Europe must liave brend; but with those who, have eaten tho bulk of our hog ment, the price per pound ts an tmportant point in delermining how jnuch they are able to consume. These poluts may furnish tho material for thought by thoso who belleve. that stil Mghor prices will be the rule, Such thought may help them to avold tho whirlpool of speeiltatlve excitement In which the savings ofa fifetime may be lost through buying on the top of tha market. ee THE CONSTITUSIONAL WORD INABILITY. ‘Tho language of the Constitution ts explicit on the subject of tha transference of “ the powors and duties’? of the President to the Vice-President in the event of tho “in- ability” of the former to discharge them, But it ts absolutoly atlent ns to the means to be employed to agcortaln whether tha “In- ability” in fact oxists, and the tanner of its declaration. Evidently the framers of the Constitutlon never contemplated Aa con- tingency Involving n dilfereies of opinion between tho Presilent and the Viee-Prestdent ns to the factof the Inability” of the Turmor to “discharge the powers and duties” of Ils ofice, or they assumed that lmedintely upon the ivloption of.tho organic law the Congress would provide for tho effectuation of Its Intent in this regard, . -In cise of the death or tho resignation of tha President the Constitution’ executes Atself, In either event tho office of Presilunt becomes vacant, and the powers and duties thereof are declared to "devolve on the Vive President,” © Whetver,. under such clr- cumstances, the VieoPresitlent becomes Presilent or = Acting-Presldent Ison question on whieh the Congress may fexistate, Dut no logistation ecoult mate pinlner tho fact that, ander the Constitution; In tho event of the resignation or death of the President, tie Vico-President succeeds finmedintely to the powers and dutles of tho chief office, A case of alleged "fnabille ty” ov the prt of the President, hinwever, Is” widely ferent, “In tho absentee of any con- atituslonal definition of the word " fnability,'* tho ordinary definition must bo presuated te have beon litended, and that fy, “want of moral power,” © witht OF suitictont physical power or strength,” “want of Intellectual atrongth or force,” . An effect, in the use of the word “inablll- ty,? the Constitution declares tint should the President become Matleas, and utterly neg luctrul of the “powers and duties” of its oficy, or Inck the neoussaty physical strength, or be deprived of hlsintollectial force,—in a worl, beconw physically helpless or mentally idfotly orinaane,—that then "the powors and thuttos of his oflve shall deyolve upon the Vieo-President,” But who shall deterniine when. clther one of thesy emergencies has prison? It ecaunot for moment bo presumed that the. framers of the Constuutlon intended, as Is clalmed, that the Vice-Preaidunt should be the sole Judge of the alleged inability" of the President, Buch 0 construction might lead to violent collision between the Vieo-President and the Vresldent, and.a revolution hence preclpl- tatud on amere differenve of opiuton as to tho mental or physlenl cond|tion of the Prest- dent, ‘Lho Constitution, Indeed, declares tho preciso conditions under which the powers and duties of the President shall deyolye on the: Vice-rresidont—namely; (1) Incase of tho President's restenation; (2) Incense of hls death; (4) In-ease of tis Inabillty to net, Now, stppose the Vice-President iia given ease should insist that the President in effect had resigned, aud should iindertake to as- sumo the duties of the Presiteney ngalist tho protest of the Presidunt that le had tot in fact resigned, would the Viee-Prosklent be allowed to constitute ilniself tho sole judge of tils faeb?

Nor Is It just to sqy that anything wis oniitted from the Constl- tution In this connection that might prop. erly bave been ineluded. What eonstitutes “Inabillty”? within the ineaning of the Cone stitution I a proper subject of legislative fetton, as fs also the creation of a proper tribunal for the settlement of the question whenever it sliall artse. Tho embarrassinent: which surrounds the whole sitbject atises from tho fact of the fail- ure hitherto to settle the status of the Viee- President whosuecceds to the office of the Tresidoney. Let {tbe once settled that the Vice-Presitent, who succeeds to the powers aud dutles of the ehief ofice, whether by tne restgnation, death, or temporary or per manent disability of tho President; is merely Acting-Prestdent, and all the diMeudtics dts- uppear, And this ts by far the most rational construction of the Intent of tho Constitution, ‘The language is: “In case of the removal of tho President from ofiice, or of ils death, resignation, or inability to. diseharge tho powers and dutles of the said. ofiice, the same shall devolye on the Vice-I'reqi- dent.” If, in elthor of the several contingen- eles mentioned, the framers of the Constitu- tlon had designed that the Vice-President should become President, obviously thoy would have said so. But, unfortunately, the Vice-Prestdents who have succeeded to the powers and duties of tho chief. office have eltlined to be and styled themselves: “die President,” and this assumption of tho iigh- est dignity hing not been questioned, When- ever it shall bo determined authoritatively that the Vice-President who sueceeds to the duttes of tho Prosldcnt Is not. Presiitent, but merely Acting-President, the duties of the Presidency may be nsswined by him tempo- rarily in all cases of the lness.or other dis- abillty of the President without causing ex- eltement or alarm.

To make this clear it may be well to briefly state the complexion of the varlows divislons In the Chamber. ‘The Right consists entirely of Legitinists. ‘The Right Centre consists of the Moderate Orleantsts, who belleve in con- stitutional monarehy. ‘The Left Centre 1s composed of Conservative Republicans, in- eluding gome Orleantsts, who are willing to avo a conservative Republle becnusa they kuow they cannot have a constitutional mon- archy, ‘Tue Left comprises the Gambetta Jtepublieans, who are more postitlye In thelr views than the Moderates or Con- servatives, ‘The Extreme Light conslsts of the Legitimists or Bourbons, who have been almost wiped out of extstenco by this elec- tion, nnd the Extreme Left Is mado up of the most tudical and violent Republicans, with some Communists sprinkled In among theme ‘Tho power of the Chamber will be'dlyided be tween the Conservative Iepubllenns, fed by M. Ferry in the Left Centre, and the Gam- bettists, or moro advanced Repubiieans, of the Left, ‘The Right of the Chamber is sinnshed beyond repatr, as the Moderate gains wore made from that quarier, ‘The second great result of this clectton is M,,,Gambetta’s loss of prestize.
