What our navy does it does in spite of the constituted authorities.

Tho higher gold is quoted, the highor is the rate per pound for all sorts of famtiy pro- visions, There is no limit to the upward price; but when gold tumbles down, and the value of greenbacks advances in a corvesppnd- ing degree, the corner groeceryman falls to notice the fact, and still adheres to his ad- It is a bat rule ers take advantage of a rise in cold to inercase their prices, they should have the magnanim!- ty to reduce those prices when gold falls. This complaint has been particularly applica- ble to the past week, when, notwithstanding the reduction in the rates for gold, as compared with the week before, retail dealers continue to enhance their prices, pour more water and sandinto their sugar, and adopt other tricks of trade, all of which tend to extract money from the poor man’s pocket and create suffer- | ing eround his family fireside.

A Draw oF Peaca.—We call upon thé great American dramatist, young or old, hackneyed or untried, whoever he is, wherever he is, or whatever he is at, to write a splendid comedy for the fall season on the subject of peace and the recent peace negotiations and negotia- tors at Niagara. Peace ts a subject worthy the loftiest inspirations of the poet; and of course the great American dramatist is a poet. It will put his eye in the finéat of frenzies, this noble theme; it will stir the roots of his hair, buret the final button off his sbirt, and startle the empty echoes of his pocket with the rattle of new greenbacks, Let him borrow pens and paper and get to work at once. He has # gréat opportunity. How finely he can contrast the nimble, perceptive and flighty Colorado with the burly and bull-headed Sanders.” How admi- rable wil! be Colorado’s reproactes to the Presi- dent, bis by-play with the Emperor on Mexico, and bis admiration of Greeley. Colorado's latent satire on the republicans will be fine, too, especially when it culminates in that dyeadful denunciation of Seward, Sumner, Chase, Fessenden and the rest, that “Horace Greeley is the most reliable statesman in the republican party.” O! course the p!ay will not fave in it many such exquisite sarcasms as that; but if ithas six such it will be better than any- thing in Aristophanes. Colorado is beautiful, and we suppose that Mra. Wood might play the part, unless Colorado wanted to play it bimself, whieh he probably would; and if be wou'd, Wood wouldn’t have to. We will not wan- tonly injure the reputation of any actor by saying that he could do justice to Greeley; but no doubt a person would be found. The drama ought to he offered to all the managers at once, and this might be done when they hold their next congress to fix prices, 5 Is Coronipo Jewett 4 Nixcompoor?—Perhaps he is; but he is a nincompoop with genius, while Greeley, Lincola, Clay, Sanders and Hol- combe, whom he prought together at Niagara Falls, aro nincompoops without genius, Tae Nursaxce Mayor—The nasty bone boiling establishments still emit their intolera- ble stench, thanks to that champion of nuisances, Mayor Guntuer. We call upon the Board of Health to shut up these posthouses, and save the city from disease, pid ae NE a Tux Democratic Youna Coons.—The young coons of the democratic party had a meeting the other evening, at which young Cozens pre- sided and Singleton made a speech.» Cozers is young coon who was brouglit down by seme political Captain Scott, and now he has formed an association of young coons to bear him com- pauy. Singleton’s speech was silly, shallow, trashy and bombastic. He had no grounds for any of his assertions about peace. Evidently hé intends to get up a faction to break up the Chicago Convention; but he has not power enough nor eloquence enough to accomplish this result. Coxaressionat Represuntatives.—We hope that we shall have some now Congressmen this fall. The present delegation are poor, silly ropresentatives, whoge incapacity is notorious, whose speeches have no effect, and whose sole prominence is in connection with the most shameful proceedings that have ever disgraced the Congressional record. ry Top Crry Democeacy.—The democratic party in this city is singularly confused, It is divided into four hostile cliques.

General Sherman, acting in pursuance of the comprehensive couibinations of General Grant, has been, as we eee, particularly yigi- lant in cutting off his retreating adversary from the roads which lead to Virginia. For fastance, the very first thing that General Sherman did afler crossing the Chattahoochee was to send forward a strong detachment to cut the Atlanta and Augueta Railroad, in order to prevent the enemy’s retreat in that direction. He next moved hie whole army on the esst elde of Atlanta, and cut the railroad on the west, so tat Hood, when expelled from the town, would be compelled to move southward, thereby widening, ineteed of reducing, the distance between him and General Lee, on the one Lend, and cutting off Hood from Montgomery end Mobile end ihe reinforcements which he might otherwise receive from that side, te ed hn he es rye tes a ef ell Tl between his iwo main armies—the one A OPE LULICD aod Hye the pov eruteent of theas. | 8 Virginia and the other in Georgia—Gencral pasting § be object of che aesecution is toprovens ; Grant's plans end combinations have been * Gren the goveroment wy thors who roay reek to | working in encceasful harmony.
