THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE: WASHINGTON, D. C, THURSDAY, JANUARY 18, 1833. OUR GROWING COUNTRY. Its Industrial, Commercial, Railroad, and Agricultural Development. FINANCE AND TRADE. Latest Reports from Leading Business Centres. Gov. JJuJtcr, Mayor Palmer, Congressman- elect Collins and others were tho guests of the Merchants' Club, Boston, last Saturday night. Gov. Butler made a speech. Tho primary causes of the decadence of American commerce, he said, are the thanges in tho build of shipi from wood to iron and the war of the rebellion, nud the- principal remedy is not in free ships, but in the manner of ruuning tho ships. If Bo-ton wants to maintain her eminence as a commercial port she must nialco connection with the waicr-borno commerce of the United Stater; in other words, tho Hoosac tunnel must join with the Erie canal. "Water-borne com merce is from four ro ciglit times cheaper than any other commerce, and ho appealed to those present to open through ways to tlio great Wof.t. When this is done Boston will be tho nearest cntreport to Europe. It would be better to put capital in this than in some of the cat-and-dog tchemto out in Arizona ; it is better to courage honest labor than to engage iu gimbling spcculaiions. Dr. Xorvin Green, president of the Western Union Telegraph Company, appeared on Satur day before" the sub-committee of tho House Judiciary Committee, by invition, and discussed provisions of the' bill recently introduced by Mr. Joyce, of Vermont, for the regulation of telegraph and cable companies. He said tho Western Union had nearly 400,000 miles of ivire enough to girdle the earth lifteen times and 1.:,G00 ollires scattered in every Stale and Territory of the Union, and in the Provincesof Canada, 'from the borders of New Foundlandat the Gulf of St. Lawrence to Pneet Sound in British America. It had also cables to London, so that it now required more than nine hours for the sun to rise on its lines, and the feat had been performed of publishing in tho San Fran cisco morning papers the quotations and trans actions of tho closing of the London Exchange at 3 o'clock of the samo day. The prolonged drought in Maine, New Hamp shire, and Vermont has been productive of most disasterous results. The loss of water power, it appears, is serious, aud there is "inuch do mestic distress. In Manchester, N. II., sonic 2,000 operatives are idle on account of the mills being obliged to shut down. The lumbermen of Maine suffer severely, the product of tho saw mills being reduced by some 20,000,000 feet. The rivers of Maine are lower than for half a century, and tho losses on account of suspended operations reach many thousand dollars. The mills on the Penobscot lose over $100,000. The establishments on tho Kenne bec, Androscoggin, and Saco are likewise crip pled. Farmers and householders aro greatly inconvenienced. In 1SS0 the exports of grain by sail were 63,376.000 bushels; by steam, 49,060,000 bushels. In 1SS1 the exports "by sail wero 19,007,000 bushels; by steam, 53,532,000 bushels. In 1651 our wheat and corn crops wero both short, and as a consequence our exports of lfas2 were ma terially affected thereby. The sail shipments for that year were 6,231,259 bushels, while those by steam wero 39,876,449 bushels, making a total of 46,152,733 bushels for the year. Tho conclusion is thus evident that steam will crowd the sailing vessels from the grain trade. Another important fact to be noted is that not a single bushel of grain was shipped to Europo from Xew York in a vessel bearing the Ameri can flag. Wm. G. Morris, collector of customs at Sitka, Alaska, is confident the rich mineral deposits of Alaska must soon attract attention. Tho lodes found at the base of tho mountains, which can be traced up their sides, are being worked by surface-diggers to advantage. Last, season a small force of men inado over $230,000. Little respect, however, is paid to tho proprie tary interests of others, and tho diggings have been much interfered with. Considerable Pacific coast capital is finding its way into Alaska, and has already brought into promi nence lines of mines as large as tho whole dbmstock lode. Reliable information has been received from various sections of North Carolina to tho effect that the cotton crop of that State will be over 50,000 bales less than last year, and that great quantities of cotton left in the fields unpicked have been badly damaged by snow. It is esti mated that the cotton crop of Virginia will be less by several thousand bales than it was last year. The difference in the receipts of cotton in Petersburg, Va., up to date and the receipts for the corresponding time last year is over 7.000 bales. John Eaymond died in Scranton, Pa., a few days ago, aged S3 years. In ls23 he built the first mile of railroad track that was ever laid in America for actual commercial business. This was on the Delaware and Hudson Canal Company's Road between Honesdale and the coal mines at Carboudalc, Pa. On this mile of track, on tho 2ath of August, 1829, the first locomotive ever run in America was tested. It was run by Horatio Allen, who is now living at East Orange at the age of nearly 90 years. The annual report of City Comptroller Patti son, of Philadelphia, puts the revenue of the city from all sources for the vear 1882 at $13,125,401.97. The total expenditures for tho yearwere $13.255,63 1.33. The balance on hand nt the beginning of tlie year wa-s $2.250.693.4 1. The funded debt of the city January 1, 1883, was $67,468,316.21, aud the floating debt at the bamedatewas $155,376.17, the total debt having been decreased $706,511.31 during the year. The entire numbc-r of railroads sold last year according to tho Italltaiy Age, was sixteen, and most of them of minor importance. The total mileage was 867i miles, represented by $26,160, 000 ot capital stock and $39,265,001) of bonds and other debts. This is a better showing than in any year since tho era of railroad bank ruptcy set in. A number of cotton manufacturers met at Atlanta Tuesday and organized the Southern Cotton Manufacturers' Association by the elec tion of J. F. Hanson, of Macon, president, and T. B. Dallas, of Nashville, secretary and treas urer. The convention of the Bricklayers' National Union at Piovidem-e, Ii. I., on tho 10th inst. elected JItnryO. Cole, of New York, president; David It. Gibson, of Ontario, vice-president; and L. Carpenter, of Ohio, secretary. W. T. Blackwell, of Raleigh, N. C, has sold his interest in the firm of Blackwell & Co., manufacturers of Durham smoking tobacco, to his iartiKr, Julian S. Carr. for $250,000, but reserves royally on the "Bull" brand. Chicago's elevators have 5,370,000 bushels of wheat, 2,828.000 of corn, 1,518,000 of oats, 459, 000 of rye ami 263,000 of barley, making a total of 10,468,000 bushels, about the name a a week ago and a year ago. Returns show that during the year ended September 31 last, 175,418 persons arrivod in Canada, of whom 76,72a went on to the United States aud 98,691 remained in that country. Tho first cargo of corn in bulk shipped to Europo fiom fcavannah, Oa., was loaded from tho new elevator, Tu.wluy, aboard tho British steamship Mareka for Liverpool. TheTexas legislature lias adopted a bill with drawing the filly cent laud from sale. Some Ktirniiig OuestioiiH. To the Editor National Tkibune: Last week Rev. D. W. Sprinkle, late private of the Seventy-eighth Ohio volunteer infantrv, delivered two lectures on Andersonville and prison life during the late war. The lectures were delivered in the M. 12. church, which was literally picked. The lectures had the effect of setting some of our people to thinking. A uumljcr ol our old fossils are contending that such hctures are wrong; that they tend to stir up partisan feelings; that the war and its railt should be forgotten as soon as possible, and that the minds of the young should not bo poisoned by reading and listening to such nar ratives, &c. Will you plcaso answer a few questions, which none of our soldier-haters have vet answered to mv rci '.infant inn v vi., should the trials and sufferings of our soldiers te Jorgotteu? In what respect wero the deeds of the soldiers of the late w;$ less glorious than were thoso of the soldiers b the war of the Revolution, the war of 1R12, or tho war with Mexico? Why should our Fourth of July orators extol thedeods of the heroes of tho three former wars and remain silent in recaid to the List and greatest war this Nation ever witnessed? What particular poison will be instilled in tho minds of tho young by the narrativo of tho events of tho rebellion ? Would it have nerved the arm of tho soldiery of tho late war to havo been told t a tho greatest blessing that could be conferred upon the Nation after it had been preserved from destruction would bo tho con signment of their deeds to oblivion? Will such an event havo a tendency to fill tho ranks, should occasion again occur to put an army in the field to repel an armed foe? Any light you may be able to shed upon the above subjects will bo received with gratitudo by your humble servant o no of the to be forgot ten Ouio Soldier. DOYLKSTOWX, O. THE STOCK MARKET. Eericn of tho lVcck In Wall Street and Closing Prices. Spccinl to The National Tribune. Ni:w Yokk, Jan. 17. Tho course of tho market has been steadily upward from tho beginning to the end of to-day's business. The movement has been duo almost entirely to en ergetic pushing on the part of tho Bull's clique, but there aro undoubtedly some outside buy ing. It would be strange if there wero not. It is a season of tho year when outsiders aro likely to bo enlisted, if ever they are to be Until within the last two days there has been an entire absence of them from the market. Their presence may he construed in two differ ent ways, as an element of strength and as an element 6f weakness. If their number is largo and increasing and their confidence and en thusiasm great then wo may look for quite a Bull market for just such a period of time if theso factors continue to exist. If, on tho other hand, they aro few and sporadic, and if their buying only lasts, as on previous occa sions, for two or thrco days, then wo may look for an immediate transit of stocks from strong hands into weak ones and a speedy cul mination of the present rise. In any event the sales of stocks can be but from two sources, viz., from tho Bull cliques and from the old hold ers ; there aro no Bears. We do not seo any thing in tho situation to warrant any decided expression of opinion. Stocks are concentrated in the hands of parties who want to sell them, and if possible at higher prices. Of courso every effort is being made to manufacture pub lic opinion in order to bring about this result. When tho movement shall havo succeeded, and the public shall have been loaded, tho market will be a sale. If tho movement does not suc ceed, tho market will be a sale. Money about 5 per cent.
