- ' New,York, March 28, 1881.
We have stock, mining, produce and other ex
change here for buying and selling all that we
bafe (and more frequently aelllng that which we
bare not), but the latest In this line was the open
ing orf Wednesday ofTlhe American Horse Ex
Itfhangeln the new bulldlngwhlch covert the
' greater, part of the block bounded by Broadway
nd Seventh avenue a'nd Fiftieth and; Fifty-first
streeta. -All of . the horses offered were Imported
-from England, and, while the attendance waa
- Jargerih'e bidding waa not aa spirited as waa ex
pected, and the prices Were much, lower than the
first cost of the animals. The flrst sale was an
, Arab stallion for;$30. Others brought higher
figures. The Englishmen present were dlsap
, pointed, but prices will doubtless go up when the
character of the stock arid jlhe exchange are more
" favorably known. It Is at least a novelty now,
1 thougl Intended to protect the Interests of buyers
and sellers of horsefleslu Admission fees and a reg
ular commlsslonon all transactions are charged.
. The steamboat Greece, which arrived some days
since "at hef pler.ln Hoboken, brought eight live
- Zulus five men, two women, and child. When
the ship came up to her pler,-fhey were all in a
row on a seat behind the long dining table of the
main saloon, dressed lnalltlie fantastlcJLoggpTy
of Zululand, and chatting and chaitrrfig merrily.
The men wore adoJlxjarotrrnTtlghtly about the
waist, and particolored blankets, which they oc
casionally drew around their shoulders, though
for the most part they withstand the cold and
damp air with no other protection than their
bmSch-cloths that Is to say, no externaPprdtec
tlon. Internally It was different, for-the- poor
savages have already become ao civilized.' that,
though the mystery of plug hats and trousers is
tlll beyond their ken, the Inspiring effect of rock
and rye is familiar to them, and they swig Ken
" tiicfcy whisky wttha gusto that would delight a
Western man and" cause him to "set 'cm up" In
definitely. They appear io be magnificent specl
iens of African manhood and womanhood. But
If the- men get "drunk and disorderly," as they
UTd 1n London recently, it may create a small riot
licre, as It did there, and necessitate something
a t rongertha n a cl ub to crack thel r skulls. Their
Tffeada would make good targets for police practice.
Thla week opened with a flood of broad sun
shine, which seemed to throw warmth and re
newed vigor Into every part of life.,, It waa the
AinHn.f IHa Wprln.ll! , In pi on as nt contrast
to Yennors prediction of returning snow arid Ice.
It really made the "openings" In the windows of
the BroadwayjBtores look as, if they were not, in
weather parlance, false "indications" of the sea
son, but very decisive probabilities of what Is to
follow. It has given a marked Impetus to trade,
for, according to the reports of the wholesale deal
ers, the flood has come as .'sudden as it is general.
The orders for goods from every quarter esjteclally
from the Bouth, where .cash buyers are reported
' to predominate this yearexceed those of last
Spring, and a strong and healthy vernal tide is
expected to continue. ( There 1 ho' good reason
whv this should not be so.. Nearly every portion
of the country I prosperous, nd that proserIty
ramifies sooner or later into this commercial cen
ter to atf est Jhe soundness and vigor of the whole.
General Xlranr acceptance of the Presidency of
the World's Fair Commission was a blunder, and
his occupation of the place has been a failure, as
Attested by his resignation. It has mortified and
astonished his friends that capital failed to em
bark In the enterprise. An effort Is now being
made to Induce Vanderbllt to accept the position,
because It Is believed he cajn command the capital
-and enable his roads to reap the benefit. Vander
bllt has hot yet given a decided answer, but has
the matter under consideration. The railway
king's money may save the enterprise nothing
lse can. . '
European travel from this port will be Immense
this season, and, steamship companies say that the
demand Is not for passengers, but for steamers In
which to accommodate them. Large quantities
of money are coming in, so that we shall have
enough to send abroad. The patriotic American
of the period expects a to. spend his profits in Eu
rope, George Washington did not approve such
doings, but he belongs to a past and vulgar period.
j press, manners and social customs are all now of
foreign birth. . v August.

Joe and Clnda are the Christian names of a young

with eight of his companions In seeing who could
