Alter the oxplanation given by Senns tor Fryeof the letters written to him by Mr, Blaine regarding reciprocity and the tarif bill, it is quite posiblo that the seeretary of state may deem it ex- pedient to write another letter. There is avery wide difference of opinion be- tween Mr. Frye and o large number of otlier peopleas to the meaning of what Mr Blaine wrote r no letters wecting the tariff but the the Maine settle all question meaning.

A republican tobe at presentone the most frequently consulted on matters, is quoted as that the ite would undoubt- edly adopt somo seleme of reciprocity before the tarifl bill comes to a wvote. He was of the opinion that the efforts of the president to bring the house and somateinto hannony on the question would succeed. It would seem from all this that Mr. Bluiine has been doing some very offee- tive work, but his efforts woull have proved far less productive except for the support anl assistince they have ceived froma widesprend popular en- darsement of his proposed policy, 1t is by no me that the count would derive from this policy bonefits as the y of state un- doubtedly believes it would, but the idea is evidently making progress and the outlook seems very favorable for the friends of reciproci saying s s clear ENGLANDS SILVER SUPPLY. Last year there wasimported into Lon- Qon silver to the value of nearly forty- million dollars, of which about twenty million was supplied by the United States, and o littlo less than thir- teen million cal om Mexico, With the creation, under the new silver law of this country, of an anual demand for fifty-four million ounces of silver, which is about the amount of last yeu's product, Tondon will no longer be able toobtuin in this market its silver for reexport to India and the east, unless there should be an in- in the product of American mines not now looked for and ed What i six crease not reasonubly to be exp likely to be the influence of this upon the Lopdon murket for silve Thesilver productionof t 1 last yoar neavly sixte %, of which over four mil from the minesof the United Statos a eleven million from Mexico. It i that tho in silver pr year will lead toa corresponding inc inoutput, and hencee that London will be able 10 obtain its necessary supjlies spite our own ineremsed demand. Butthi appears to lose sightof the probuble fuct that the treasury demands will ab- sorb all the silver production of the United States, even if the in output equals that of last ye Loudon must consequently draw upon Mexico and the South American producers for from fifteen to nineteen million dallars in silver hitherto obtained in the United ites, and as the least of those amounts islarger than the incrense in the output of the entive world, leaving out this country, last® year, it is appar- ent that London is likely to find agood deal of difficulty in securing an adequate supply ofsilver. In that event itis highly probable that the price which silver will go will be limited only by the provision inour silver law which requires that purchases shall cease when the markot price of silver reachc dollar for three hundr and one-quarter grains, It 15 impossible to say whether the English demand for silver will be as large this year as last. It Is more than likely it will uot be, and it is aiso prok ble that the productionof silver will be somewhat increased, But in any ovent it would seem inevitable that the price must rise, at least during the earlier days of the operation of the newlaw, and any pronounced tendency in that direc- tion will undoubtedly be reflected in all the financial markets of the world. world in- n million 1 came a wgued advance this de- increase I'seventy-one LETTER DELIVERY & XTENSION, Tho bill reported by the senate com- mittes on postoffices and post roads, for the further extension of the free deliv ery sorvice, ought to become a law.

The proposel measure will goneral publio approval, and is inaccord withthe policy which should govern 1n the administrs tion of the postal system of the country.

There is very little prospeet of the bill becoming alaw. The fecling is growing that existing laws are sullicient if v ously enforced and that the government has gone far enoughin abrogating the Burlingame treaty.
