At a meeting of the New York chamber
of commerce, on Thursday, the chairman
of the committee on the bankrupt law nro-
seiueu an extended report, which was
unuinniotisly aeceptou. The report betfim
with a record of the progress nmile In con
gress relative to adequate bankruptcy leg
islation. The congressional sub-judiciary
committee, to which was delegated the
work of conferring and corresnondiiur with
representative business men to gain the
m-noc ui we puoui; on tue question, it ap
pears, have prepared a report which is in
the hunds of the judiciary committee. This
will not be made public until the latter are
ready to lay the whole matter belore con
gress. The beliefis expressed that tliiswill
be at an early day. The chamber of com
merce committee, however, leel called on
to state that the principal dilliculties in thu
way of the enactment of a bankrupt law,
adapted to the needs of tho whole country,
are deeply rooted. This is illustrated bv
recalling the deficiencies of the original
Lowell bill, thought ut the time to be eiiunl
to any emergency in all parts of the United
.States, and which proved on examination,
say the committee, to be sorely dolioient.
The sy.stem of rcgisterial ollices in connec
tion with district courts, in uso under tlio
acts of ltill and 17, and substantially em
bodied in the proposed Lowell bill, formed
an attempt to override the dilliculty al
luded to, mid was believed to be an effort
in the right direction, but possessed evils
ollsetting the same. Thus the employment
of salaried oilicials, in place of allowing fees,
is a wise step; but the creation ol Borne two
hundred now judicial districts, entailing
patronage and attendant evils, is not to be
accepted as a substantial improvement,
i'lie desire to render the adjudication non
olllcial,;inslea(l of ollioial timt is, take it as
far as possiblo from the courts may be
very desirable. Itttt after a long trial ol this
plan in Kngland, the report states
that the results have always been

tout alternate sections are being taken,
schools huilt and the adjacent lands en

it by the railroad corporation which
owns it. Tho plan is for the company to

at a good rate of interest. The title is not
translcried to tho purchaser until the last
payment has been made, and in the mean
time tin one is obliged to pay tax upa-ii it,
since tho road dues not take its patent and
pay Use cost of survey until tho settler hns
uiiule his final payment for his farm. In
this way the road is able to oiler as a special
inducement the freedom from taxes on land
bought from tho company for a tern of
years. In the meantime the rest ol ilie

OTicruay was truly a uay or uneasiness
at the cotton exchange, and the present
state of the market is is one of the worst
kind ot puzzles to the "bulls, ".who were se
high in spirits and expectations a few weeks
ago that they predicted a boom m the sta
ple belore the.hrst day of March. Meanwhile
all street helped the New York "bears,"
and with tho feeling acress the
water to inspire them, they
made several unsuccessful attempts
to break down prices. The "bulls" laughed
ar the attacks, and for a time had every
thing tlieir own way. The heavy stocks
were chiefly held by "bulls," and many
them would not part with a bale three
weeks aim nt. luhavu iiiiritiu.,,, ..i:
n- n -- w ..i,iiiOTia, aj liWIll'
dent were they that the murket must ad
vance on account of a generally acknowl
edged short crop,
Hut ulas I the "bulls" find themselves
engaged in another fierce struggle, and
whilst it is yet too soon to venture any defi
nite prediction, it would not be a very
strange thing if cotton should take a notion
to stay where it is for some time, and even
go yet lower. In ordinary years this
would be highly improbable, but this is an
extraordinary season, and there aro so
many schemes ami manipulations to

that Jhoro is no telling what the specu

hundreds of tnnn whn.n liirulilw.r..l .ln.......i

they care not what may happen to the le

The "bears" at the St. Louis exchange
yesterday were very jubilant, and in point-

'bulls" no little bit about tho present state
of atlairs, and predicted all sorts of awful
consequences to tho "longs" in cotton.
There is another side to thi (juestion,
though, and the men w ho really have shown
genuine grit and lots of back-bone are tho
"bulls." A leading factorknown here
