Newspaper Page TextMi ' au 5if3 mmL FRIDAY APRIL 22, 1881. Bradstreet's Commercial Report for the quarter ending April 1st, seems to indicate a more hopeful outlook gener ally in business circles of all kinds. The attempt to get up a world's fair in New York will probably prove a failure. It is almost impossible to get a meeting of tho full Kvml of com missioners together. After all the pros and cons Mr. Edison's electric light has been fully proven to be an entire success. Ar rangements are being made to light a portion of tho city of New York by his process at once. A! . .. . , v v.n m i r.i;. i . 1. 1 . animosity exists in Mexico against Americans building railroads on Mexican soil. It is like the dread experienced before taking a cold bath and will probably wear off after the plunge is taken. Gex. Grant has evidently lost his amulet. lie actually arrived at the city of Mexico a short time sinco and was not received with a grand ovation, but allowed to go quietly to his hotel like an ordinary human. But then the Mexicans use a depraved set any way, and don't seem to appreciate our new-fangled notions of hero-worship. I nor- reorts from the Western middle states seem to indicate jrood prospects for an average crop of all cereals despito the severe winter. There has been sufficient snow to pro tect the wiuter crops and the indications for Spring so far are very favorable It is probable the acreage is largely in creased and this will mom than counter baJanco any local failures. The fruit crop in some sections is almost an en tire failure. fn ... ... a he emancipation celebration at tempted in Washington last Saturday proved a complete fizjle. Onlv about 100 persons joined the precession and m-iny of these left it before it arrived at the place designated for the, celebra tion. It is difficult to get up much enthusiasm now in Washington on any other topic except executive appoint ments and the dead lock. If the office seekers there should determine to celo brate there would be a big time, at least as fur as numbers go. The Czar's murderers, five in nun:- ber, have been executed at last and have paid a just penalty for a crime committed in the name of liberty. T-iere is something tetriily sublime in the aspect of these 'men and women who are willing to step forward and lay down their lives for an idea, no matter how mistaken their methods. And behind such self-sacrifice as this the forces that are at work may well cause anxiety to the crowned heads of every European nation. Liberty and Progress, while capable of more good for humanity than any other ideas that furnish motives for human action, are also capable of producing greater fanati cism. Gladstone is not very warlike. Ilei gives as his reasons tor putting a stop to the Boer war that it was necessary to save the honor of England. Just exactly what he means by " the honor of England" does not appear. If it is meant that the war was .an un just one on England's part and it was stopped on that account, it is rather late in the day to talk about England's "honor" in this respect. Most people have come to the conclusion lon ao that it was irretreivabfy lost. Under the policy adopted, and the expense of life and money involved, Englanjl was playing a losing game, and it is more than probable this had something to do with Mr. Gladstone's idea of saving Eaghsh honor. In either event, he hag pursued a wise course. 'fa:: Anti-Monopoly League move ment hs gaining ground rapidly. It is now projKwed to hold an immense mass meeting in New York soon. Sei interesting matter on our fourth page in the shape of a Xew York Tribune editorial and Mr. Thurhet'g able reply thereto will give an outlme of the feel : tx. -. l i . . g mo ujuvcKiciii mm excitea among monopolists. The Tribune may he looked to in the campaign which is sure to follow the agitation of this ques tion, as the principal champion of the monopolists. The success of the-anti- monopoly party at the recent municipal election in Jersey City, was only par tial, but it nevertheless has much sig nificance. The city in which this organization had its origin, is simply railway ridden. It is a railroad center and the rights of the" citizens are net weighed at all, when the demands of the corporations are in question. It is alleged that the Pennsylvania road payjLJio taxe whatever to the Jersey ify treasury, while the other railroad corporations contribute only a fraction of what they ought to. A correspond "ent say3 that the growing feeling among the masses, not only in Jersey City, bnt also throughout the state, is that corporations have gone far enough, and that it is now high time to teach them the rights of the people. This feeling is shared by the bulk of the Democratic party, just as much as it is by anti menopolists themselves. Undoubtedly tikis movement will have an influence elections this fall, may be on factions after that . mt nKlCMHFfCLO. At live o'clock Tuesday morning last the British statesman, orator and novel ist, Benjamin Disraeli, Lord Beacons- field, lifter a lingering illness of many weeks, died at his homo in London. at He was born in London in December, 1805, and wan tho eldest son of Isaac Disraeli, auUior of the celebrated work "Curiosities of Literature." Citizen ofH a nation whose long array of great men adorn the pages of lwstory and lead thd student of humauity to believe that human life is not all objectless when men can accomplish so much for their kind, Iiord Beaoonsfield was pcibape one of the most illustrious ami success ful even of British statesmen. His life has been one long scries of olwtaol and triumphs, until it was crowned by the highest gift in the power of the na tion to bestow. By force of talent, in dustry aud perseverence, unaided by wealth or family connections, in spite of the disadvantages of his Jewish ori gin and of his reputation as a mere novelist, ho raised himself to the proud position of political leader ef a great nation, and for many years retained bis power agaimt aptne ef tho most bittei opposition ever encountered by any one man. As a novelist he has been pro litic, and many of his works have be- come household trensuies in every Eng4hipin.atl frow the Atlantic porta to lish spealfing community. As an era tor his powVr has been recognized as greater than that of any contemporary, and although his maiden effort was a agnal failure, and greatly ridiculed many of his hearew lived to remcmbei its closing wordaj which were as fwl-fl lows : " I am no$ sarprised at the re ception I have experienced. I bar begun several times many things and I have often succeeded at last. 1 sbal a'l r? r, vm hav - Vhut . It j i t, n will Mm , .

His foreign poiify while Primo Min ister has perhaps done more to place England upon a solid foundation with her immense colonial dependencies than any other man of his time could have etTected. An exchange said of him a few days before his death : "Thirty-five Years have elapsed since the memorable night when Benjamin Disraeli arose in the house of commonsBof the amended official crop estimates to make his famous onslaught on Sir Robeit Peel for his concessions to th unti corn law league. That speech marked the change in the tide of h Political fortunes.

Perhaps one of the most important movements of this" moving age is the! revision of the New Testament. There! is a wide-spread unsettled feeling that has gaineu much ground in the past do- cade in regard to all religious affairs, and it is probable that this reviuiou will greatly increase Its intensity. Such changes do not cease without upsetting msnv old doHh, and leaving manv in doubt who havebaseJ their faith morefctatn that millers bought wheat freely upon hearsay than on personal study and investigation. Tb e appearance in Ma? next ef the revised editions of the New Testament will lead many to think and form opinions ef their own who bae heretofore to a great extent hadDftriube miiera wcre cxp0ctinf a better all their thinking in this direction ready made for them and have adopted it ithout Queatien. It will be a severe test and one which will involve much bitterness, for old ideas and methods are things men do not give up without a struggle. The Christian religion has! survived 1800 years o: onslaught from withoutaudhas yearly grown in strength from thnjentest. YY ftenever and wher ever it has received weakening blows they have come from within, and while! it ii not probable that a mere revision of the New Testament will overthrow it, or even injure it permanently in any manner, yet it will doubtless subject it to many changes that in the nature ofj things must temporarily weaken its force. The Rev. Dr. Philip Schiff, who was one of the American commit' tee on the revision of the New Testa ment, says : "The changes aie so many that scarcely a verse in tho New Testament' remains unaltered, la man instances. however, the changes concern punctua tion and minor werds. Of course any alteration will arouse criticism, but 1 think we can hold our own, and we are prepared to do battle for what we have done and sanctioned.

Far mers offer very sparingly, all except the largest growers having but little wheat left, and Spring work moreover engaging their attention. Millers con sequently have to turn their attention more to foreign, of which about half a dozen cargoes have this week been bought off tho English coast, the ship ments from Amor Lea direct having likewise somewhat increased. The fact that during the last tvc weeks the! the Continent direct have averaged I04,000qrs. ier week quite disposes oil anv latent idea that the Continental wants had already been virtually sat isfied. unm.

The "term" markets this week have been firm for wheat, which close rather higher on tho week, but rather quiet for rye. At Beriin wheat on th pot was moro animated at full rates, but for forward delivery them was a light decline.

COOU SEASONS Governor Perkins of California said i in regard to the appointment of Knight as harbor commissioner a few davs ago "In addition to the satisfaction it gives me personally to do this thing for an old man who first befriended me, think the people of this state ought to bo grateful to me for appointing an honest man to this position." These are high-toned sentiments, and un of a state elected by the people of that state, offers as an apology for the ap pointment of a man to exercise an office for the benefit of the people Governor Perkins has a high standard and is exceedingly frank in such apt expressions of it. Truly the people of California should be grateful to their governor for the appointment of one honest man to office. The people are doutless all down upon their knees ex pressing tboir gratitude.
