Tt would appear to be a universally zeccived rule among this people that whenever, from any cause, an article becomes scarce in market, and in consequence thereof, or for any other reason, commands a high price, every dealer ia at liberty to introduce to public. Botice and to preas upon public attontion a commodity of inferior quality, and, oftentimes, spurious altogether, bearing the same designation and asserted by its venders to possess the same qualities as those that appertain to the particular thing which, because of its costliness, 13 beyond the reach of the multitude, Especially is this the case with all articles that are classed under the head of “necessaries of life.” When these reach an exor- bitant Ogure, inventive genius is set to work to produce substitutes that are disposed of at much leas prices than the real article, while, in making sales, dealers represent them to be the ‘genuine originals” ‘Thus, when, shortly aftor the late war was begun, and specie became scarce as the weeks relied by, cloths of all kinds could be purchased only by paying fifty, one hundred, or two hundred per centum more than was the ruling price jn ante bellum times, the market became inundated with ‘ghoddy,”’ an@ speedy fortunes were mada by sales of It, To the fact that the wearing of fig leaves solitaire was not re- garded as exactly the mode of dress in this age and country, and that a custom so Edenlike eonld not well be revived, many a moyer in the beau monde to-day owes his fashionable status and high Onancial standing. Clothing must be bad —cloths raled high, and the stock in market was slim; but shoddy supplied the de- mand.

Then, too, eoifeo reached an enormous. figure; but the deaters in that article filled the market with 4 compound bearing that name, which by its large sales must have fgreatty enhanced tho value of beans and chicory.

Probably their attention has never been specialty called to it; but if information be desired by the Legislature of this toni; the Board of Health in this city will probably bo able’ to ravply it; and to show how, ina sanitary point of view, the ealth, of the community is being insidiously undermined by the use of the poisonous decoctions that find their wag, all _unsuspectedly by the honest purchasers, to tho tea- tables of eyen our most weal'hy cilizens. Of course our poorer claasos anffer most trom the sale of these poiso: for the reazon that they have not the meazs to purchase the teas of higher and move costly kind; and itis to sup- ply the vast demand of this ela:s of our people that theso bogus teas are thrown into market, In Mayor June of last year, we beliove it was that this subject was brought to the notice of the Board of Health, and a seizure was mado of a factory up town where the villainous stuff was ‘being concocted, and where large quantities of black lead were used as coloring material, The general law fs so lax, however, that under it no special remedy can be employed to punish with saffcient severity the par- ties whose cupidity leads them to embark in this nefa- rious manufacture or traffic, It will be recollected that in addition to the increase in price which nataraily affected ali articles at the outbroak of the war, tea is rendered atill more costly by the imposition of a high riff daty, which fact affords greater acope for the manu- {xeture and sate of the base iroitations tha! aro continus ly flooding the market, Asan indox of the greai mand, even for genuine teas, we may mention that the imports in 1866 of uncolored Japans alone, were five million ix hundred thousand pounds; of Oolongs, nine milion five bundred thousand pounds, Of black taas of ail kinds one miHion ht hundred thousand pounds more were imported in 1866 than in 1895.

This law fs still in force.

Reception ef the Warlike Tidings from Ire- laud—Open Air. Meeting Intended. The unequivocal despatches of yecterday that British troops and Irish insurgents had met in various parts of Ireland in actual and bloody collision sent a thrill of ex. eltement through the sensitive frame oi Fenianism ex- ceeding anything experienced up to thia The central offic, Chatham street, was allve with vistors, eagerly Passing to and fro, exchanging signjfcant hints and evidently infected with an exuberant martial ardor. Tho despatches bronght by hand giving the plan of the con- templated rising and indicating the places to be attacked coinciding with the cable news of yosterday, left no doubt on the Fouian mind that the rising was both earnest and widespread, The great question with the habitud: of the office was the most speedy and effective means to bo adopted of utilizing the co-operative ele- ment of the Fenian Brotherhood in America in ald of the fighting men in Ireland. It was decided to hold a nd mass meeting cither on Monday or Tucaday next’ fr 'Union square. Rally, every lover of Ireland and liperty, and go to work at once in fitting out privateers to prey on English commerce, The opinion is coniidently entertained that the place whore the rulroad between Cork and Dublin is injured mast be located in Tipperary, and the natnral inference déducod from that fact is that the rising bas extended itself to a section of country where the most inflamma- blo materials of disaffection exist, end which, when brought into play, will tax the resources of the English gererment to quell. The men of iipperary have a ditional reputation for. being physically the finest and bravest of the Irish race. In flery im, pulse and intense patriotiom they excel the rest of their countrymen, A national insurrection pastaien of by such men will no doubt juire a fiercencss of char. acter and an element of sangainary determination that promises no brief rosowater conflict in the present move- mont, On the receipt of fuller dotails tho Fenians be- Heve themselves capable of raising sufficient pecuniary fs toeqnip one or more private hen the news becamo generally known over the city, eapacially tn factories and places where the Fenian elomant is largely ropreeented, there was almost a complete cos- sation of work, ‘and the discussion of the Irish rising substituted for ene else, In the afternoon a bulletin in front of the H«raup office announcing the capture of police stations and serious fighting near Dublin drow around ® as eager a crowd of readers as evor assombled to learn the nows of Grant's Intest move- ment during the rebellion, Impromptu speeches were delivered in front of the Central ofiice at different times. throaghout the day by excited Fenians, who in. veighed im bitterterms against the lukewarm spirit shown by the Irish im America towards their suffering countrymen in Ireland. ‘The speakers on all occasions had an anxious attentance of listeners, who fully coincided in the sentiments expressed, though evincing no great inclination to do anything practical themselves, It was a noticeable fea- ‘ture that the rejected leaders who flourished and waxed fat on the plunder of the Fenian treasury at Union quatro showed thomeelves occasionally throngh the day. The incident was generally remarked, and livoly threats uttered that any aitempt on tho part of the dis- carded plunderers to insinuate thomselves into the con- fidence of the Brotherhood by their oily-tongeed expres- sions of Patriotisia wor'd meet with instant and stern rebuke.
