Statistics showing that the accumulation of coal in first hands has been reduced since March 1, have a helpful influence, and encourage the belief that in a few months the policy of restriction ki the output will restore the market to a healthy condition. But its condition is far from healthy at present. No improvement is seen in the woolen manufacture, and dearer cotton does not help the mills. The exports of grain continues large, notwithstanding the advance in prices, and furnish the oulv reasonable excusn for that advance. In any event, a larg.

surplus of wheat will remain on hand July 1, and the reported injury to winter wheat will be, to a great extent, balanced by the increased acreage of spring wheat, which higher prices will cause. Cotton receipts and exports are both falling far behind hist year, and the floods and rains are expected to affect this year's yield ta somo extent. No reason is perceived, lieyond speculative activity, for advance in pork or in oats, but the belief that the currency wdl be greatly expanded tends just now to render all prices somewhat fictitious. The treasury has taken in during the past week $1,000,000 more than it has paid out, but the receipts of money from the interior have kept the New York money market comparatively easy. The figures indicate a heavy excess of imports over exports for the month, but there are no present symptoms of an outgo of specie.

L. REYNOLDS, Dying a Natural Death. Los Angeles, CaL, April 26. Last winter, during the floods in this section, a rancher named Thomas Hooper died at Kanchito, in this county. It is learned that prior to his death the sheriff's officers here collected evidence sullicient, it is alleged, to implicate him in the murder of John M.

Clayton, brother of Governor Powell Clayton, of Arkansas. After communicating with Governor Eagle, of Arkansas, they were about to proceed to Kanchito and arrest him when the floods came and cut him off for a few days, and during the time Hooper was taken down with pneumonia and died. It is alleged the deceased told a friend, Charles Lewis, that he had killed two men in Arkansas who were concerned in the lynching of his (Hooper's) father, and that there was a third man whom he would yet kill. That man was John M. Clayton.
