NEWS OF THE DAT. -Gold at New York, yesterday, closed at -The New York cotton market closed weak; uplands "ole.; sales 3279 balee. -An Liverpool cotton closed with uplands at lOd. -The Judges of the United States Supreme Court are now making up their opinions on the legal-tender cases. Five or six written opinions are expected. -Nilsson'spay for twenty nights in opera in New York amounted to $22,000, which is probably the largest sum ever received by any prima donna in this country. -The four once famous Ravel Brothers, Gabriel, Antoine, Francois and Jerome, are now living qulotly near Paris. They are said to have lost a good deal cf their property during the Franco-German war, but ?hey etill have abundance to live on, and. to Insure to | their heirs a comfort able Independence. -On Monday night there was an eclipse ot the sun in the Eastern hemisphere. Vt bile the United States was enveloped in darkness, a large tract of the Indian continent and r art of Aus:ra.ia was covered with a shade over the san's light for a few moments by the in? terposing moon. Several parties of astro? nomical observers bad beeu dispatched from European capitals to observe the eclipse, but lt will be some time yet before their report ls J received. -A correspondent of the New York Journal of Commerce describes a project soon to be j submitted to Congress, it is said, by Senator Sumner, for the charter of a grand national bank, to be called "The Exchequer of the United States," and modelled, some what after the Bank of England. The plan contains two departments, the "banking"' and the "Issue'" department, and provides for one hundred minions of capital, lo be taken by subscrip? tion. It is designed a'so to take the place of j the present sub-treasury. -Another conflict bas arisen between act-1, lng Governor Conley and lae Legislature ol I, Georgia. The constitutional limitation of the Meelon to forty days is the cause. On Sunday night the time expired, but as the cons'ltution j ' gives the Legislature the power to extend the j( session by a two-t ir rds vote, a resolution was < passed extending it to Saturday evening next, i Conley reftued to approve the resolution, and | ordered ihe treasurer not lo piy the mern- | hers; but the latter have affirmed their right , to continue the session, and bid defiance to j his Excellency. -The Stock Exchange looks upon dcuth as ! a mere mattter of business. A cable dispatch to the Associated Press sild : "The firmness ? Of the market is not owiog to the favorable- 1 ness of the news, but to the fi ct ?.hat the M Prince's death has been thoroughly discount- < ed.*' Of course that the possible effects of the 1 death of the heir to the throne should be an- ? ticipated was only natural; but what a norri- , bly grotesque illustration of the spirit of trade , la the Jaunty tone with which the most awful of events Is discussed In the Jargon of the broker's office. -A new movement In the Catholic Church In this country ls the organization of a branch of --The Catholic Union," already ia active < operation in Europe. The Union has been ? started for (he parp?se o! expressing eymp.- 1 j thy and afording aid to his Holiness the Pore, j but ia not solely confined to this purpose, the , promotion o? general Catholic Interests being > also Included in the programme. The number of tooee who have alreaiy joined is very great, and is daJJy increasing, and as lt has 1 the hearty sympathy and support of the 1 bishops and priests it will probably become as 1 important an institution among the Catholics' < In this country as lt ls ta Europe. : -Professor Agassiz has taken an extraordi- ? nary method of exhibiting his faith in his theories of the natural history of our planet. On the eve of departure of the special ex plo-1, ring steamer Hassler, from Bo.-ton for the ? Sooth American coasts, he addressed a letter ( to Professor Pierce, prophesying specifically . what kind of animals whose existence Is as ( yet unknown will be discovered ia the seas to , be explored, and what sort ol geological land? marks will be l mad on the shores as yet un- , visited. Professor Agassiz puts fort! th s I. curious letter not without an evident L-iX'e'y , that results will justify his predictions, t ? ( lt a document which may be very compro- | mlslng." ( -Rev. Dr. Edward Y. Higble, for many years minister of Trinity Chapel, New York, i who was found dead In his bed-room on Mon- ; day, was tor many years a leading clergyman ? of the diocese of New York. He represented lt in the general convention for several terms, and was also on the standing committee. He was a trustee of the General Theological Sem? inary, and a prominent member of all the Episcopal institution?. He was twice mar? ried, his wile who survives him being a daughter of Commodore Rensbaw. Dr. Hlg biehad been an lnva'id since 1867. Family troubles and the unexpected death of his youngest child, a boy of uncommon promise, affected the doctor's health matti lolly. Lat? terly he had grow J very stout. -Sandrigham, the country home of his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, is in Norfolk, one of the eastern counties of Eng? land, and at least a hundred and twenty miles from the metropolis. The Prln:e bought l he estate soon after his marriage, and lt bas con? tinued to be his favorite resort ever since. Quiet and secluded, with plenty of game o? every kind, and surrounded by loyal Inhabi? tants, lt la a delightful resort lor retirement and pleasure. The Prince is lord cf the manor, and has the gift of the rectory in his own hands, which he recently bestowed upon one of his old and favorite tutors. The hou-e IB a Bplendid mansion, ihe Prince having laid out enormous sums upon lt It was here that royalty basked and enjoyed Itself without hav; lng all its movements placarded in the paper.-. -The American branch of the "Internation? al Workingmen'^ Association" is eaid to con slit of thirty-two sections, located in the prin? cipal cities of the United Slates-Kew York City having eleven 6ec!ionB and Brooklyn two. The word "section'' is equivalent to what ls generally called in this country "a lodge." The average number of members In each section is now supposed-to exceed two hundred. The largest section is found In New Orleans-over six hundred strong-and com? posed mostly of Frenchmen, Belgians and Swiss. With the possible exception of one or two, the foreign element of our population largely predominates In the thirty-two sec? tions. The American branch is governed by a council, which holds its sessions in New York City. Women are admitted to member? ship. Three new sections are in progress of | lormatioa this week-one in Newark, one in Boston, and one In New York City. Tne lat? ter will be composed mostly if not altogether of colored citizens. -Episcopalians will be glad to hear authori? tatively as to the new Hymnal adopted by the late general convention, and which lt was pro? posed to use in the churches on and after Epiphany Sunday, January Gib. By Its action j the psalms and hymns now In the Prayer-Book and the new Hymnal are alone authorized to be used In public Bervice in the Protestant Episcopal Church, but the convention prohib? ited the latter being bound up wit.i the Prayer BOC-K, as it i9 proposed to test its merits dur? ing the three years intervening before thc next convention, and then to revise lt accord? ingly. The new Hymnal has been copyright? ed by the convention for the benefit of the lund for aged and infirm clergymen, and any one may publish it cn purchasing the standard plates made for tbe convention, by guarantee? ing a royalty on sale for the purposes men? tioned. _ Official Speculation. A bill was introduced in tbe Honse of Representatives "io prevent certain officers "from dealing in certain securities or evi? dences of debt." It waa referred to the Committee on Ways and Means, who report that the object Bought lo be obtained by tbe bill "is cover*? 1 by law now on the statutes, "to which this Act will add nothing what? ever. They further say that, "while the "committee have every reason to believe "that transactions of this kind are carried "on by State and county officials, they are "carried on in a manner to evade the con? sequences of the law that now exists, or "can be enacted. The committee, there "fore, deem it unnecessary to encumber the "statute books of this Slate" Thi3 is a cu? rious confession for a legislative committee to make. They admit that the State and county officials are speculating, contrary to law, in claims against tbe State. They kno^v the way that the law is evaded. They must be satisfied that official jobbery is an injury to the State, and a heavy loss to the needy holders of pay certificates, coanty checks and the like. And yet they give the jobbers immunity by announcing thal no law "can be enacted" which will restrain them from carrying on their profitable trade. For a General Assembly which, by statute, proposes to prevent excited men from using naughty words and from tippling over much, this is a notable admission of weakness. We think that the committee, if acting in good Taith, owed it to the Legislature to specify the means of evasion practiced by State and jouoty officials who speculate io public claims. The members could then have de? rided for themselves whether lhere was nb redress. If the voting majority would, for 'or once, elect to public office only responsi? ve and honest men, lhere would be no de nand for laws to make jobbery a penal of? fence; but as lODg OA persons of the stump )f our present officials approve accounts and ?old the purse-strings, the only safeguard is tuch legislation as will reduce stealing to a ninimam. We ask General Whipper, thee, ;o inform the public who are the State and xmsty official.' who deal ia "certain securi? ties or other evidences of indebtedness," md, also, what is "the manner" in which .hey "evade the cons?quences of Ihe law "that now exists." New England Changing Front. We have long looked upon the gradual change of sentiment In ihe New England States on the subject of protective tariffs ns promising a liberal support from that quarter 'or every well organized and sustained movement ia the direction of free trade. The expression of this opinion from time to Lime has called cut vigorous denials from ihe Boston Advertiser and other journals, jut we find in the Springfield Republican, Di recent date, a confession of the aban? donment of the doctrine of protection by Eastern manufacturers, which fully confirms ill that has been said on the subject. The Republican says : "No one can have watched with any care the organs of public opinion In New England for the past four years without observing a do :ided chance of tone in relation to the tariff. The latest and most notable indication In tins lirection Is the resolution passed at Worco uer by the Republican Convention denouncing the navigation law, which makes it illegal to buy ships, and toe high tariff taxes on material-, which make it impossible to build them. The resolutions of political c inventions are not ordinarily of any great consequence, and this ls not, except as Indicating the strong desire of Boston to regain her ocean traffic, and the (act that she has found the navigation law and the tariff an obstacle In her way. The ship? builders of Maine, also, have repeatedly peti? tioned Congress for drawback of duties on shlpb' materials, though they, as shipbuilders, have naturally a less desire for the repeal of j the navigation law. Several causes have powerfully contributed to modify opinion in New England, and to make her beg.n to Bwing round again toward herod and cher? ished hostility to commercial restrictions ol all kinds."' The Republican considers at some length the reasons for the change which hos taken place, but owing to our limited space we are compelled to omit its analysis of causea. We quote further os follows : "In ihe second place, the coal duty has al? ways been an abomination in New England, a ? *?.?.. * what the New England people want, and what the New England manufacturers want, Is cheap power. The bitumlnoua coal of Nova Scotia ls just the thing for their furnaces. For many purposes, it is better than anthracite. But the duty of one dollar and tweniy-flve cents in gold per ton almost doubles what would be the price of j the Ficlou coal. A treasurer of one of the Piclou coal companies testified, not long ago, that he considered two dollars in gold a very good price for coal already loaded on schoon? ers for ihe Boston market- he had sold some as low as one dollar and seventy-five cents In gold. Calling it two dollars, there is a duty ol sixty-two and a half per cent, on coal. It is a pure tr.bute to Pennsylvania an th: adte. It inervases the cost, and thus lessens the market of New England manufactures. This ?act has stuck In the throats of"some people, and makes them doubtful of the whole sys? tem that embrace such particulars." With regard to the views of the shoe manufacturers, the Republican says: "The shoemakers are up in arms. A good deal of what is called the dissatisfaction of j labor springs from causes that have their seat in the tariff. The boot and shoe interest is the largest single Industry in the United States, next to agriculture. It employs more mea and uses more capital than either the woollen, the cotton or the Iron Industry. More than one hundred and thirty-one thou* sam! persons earn their daily bread In this em? ployment alone. Most of this Industry Is located io New England and in Massachusetts. Lynn began to make shoes-to sell ia 1651, and, In 1868, made about nine million pain enough to give one pair to about every fourth person in the country. Brookfield is not much, If any, behind Lynn, and in Milford, Haverhlll, Newburyport and other towns in Massachusetts, it is the principal occupation of j the people. The shoemakers never asked for any protection for themselves, and never got any; but the present tariff crowds item on their materials almost unendurably. Lynn makes mostly a cloth shoe lor ladies' wear. The wool biil of 18G7 puts a duty ol nearly one hundred per c*ut. on the lasting ot which these shoes are made, and that, too, at a time when not a yard ol that s ind of goods was made in thia country. The rubber goring, too, which is a feature of these shoes, is taxed fifty per cent, in gold before the manufacturer can touch lt. There ls also a duly upon hides and leather. About lour hundred of the prin? ciple.boot and shoe manufacturers of New England have united in a downright remon? strance against these features ot the tariff, and their Influence over public opinion is very considerable. They constitute a good deal of | public opinion themse.vts." Concerning the woollen interest, the Re? publican says : "The woollen industry ls in a very unsatis? factory condition, especially th? manufactures of the finer grades of labt les. Edward Har? ris, and the Bhode Island manufacturers gen? erally, are the spokesmen, of these men. They complain that, while they have to pay about one hundred and ten per cent, duty on their fine wools imported, the carpet and blan? ket wools come in at about fiiteen. They complain, also, lhat while they have to pay, on the average, seventy-s!x per cent, ol the whole cost oi their goods In duties on the materials, the completed product that com? petes with their own ls admitted at thirty-five per cen . They do not want, however, lo have this latter rate raised, but piay lo be re? lieved of the fermer, and prefer that both to? gether should go by ibe board absolutely than to have things as they are. We hear that these Ideas are working In the minds of some of the woollen manufacturers up In Berkshire, who are by no means aB prosperous as for? merly, and that they say openly lhat the tariff ought to be and must be changed In the Inter? est ot lower duties." The Republican might properly have in? cluded the manufacturers of cotton fabrics and the representatives of many other less important industries among the opponents of the tariff, and ita failure to do sois doubt? less attributable to oversight or the neces? sity of economizing space. Mr. Edward Atkinson is as much entitled Jo recognition ts the spokesman of the cotton interest ns Hr. Edward Harria of the woollen manufac urers. The Republican, BO far as we know, s the first representative jouroul of the tfew England States to diecover what, to ne people of other sections, has long been )bviou3, that the Eastern manufacturers lave 'learned from experience the folly of irotective tariffs.
