The Gas' Commission met in the Mayor's office yesterday and awarded the contracts for lighting the streets and public places of the dity for the year beginning May 1. There was practically no competition between the various eompanlee. Each one bid for a particular district and received the contract for that district.

The New York Gas Company will light the city south of Grand street, excepting the parks, and Broadway, from Canal rate of $17 50 for each lamp per year. The Manhattan Company, for the same price, will light the district between Grand and Thirty Fourth streets, excepting the parks, nd Fifth' Avenue, Fourteenth and Thirty Fourth streets. The Metropolitan, at a corresponding rare, will light a part of the city between Thirty Fourth and Seventy Ninth streets, and the Mutual will light the remaining part between the same streets, excepting the parks. The Harlem Gaslight Company will receive $19 50 per lamp for the district between Seventy Ninth and the Harlem River. The Central Gas Company In the Twenty Third Ward will reeefve $29, and the Northern Companyin tbe Twenty Fourth Ward $32 per lamp.

The Yonkers Gaslight Company receives $30 for its lamps in the Klngsbridge district. The Brush Electric light Company will light Broadway and Fifth Avenue, from Fourteenth to Thirty Fourth street, and parts of Fourteenth and Thirty Fourth streets at seventy cents per night for each light. The United States Illuminating Company will light the Battery. City Hall and Washington Parks and Broadway from Canal to Fourteenth streets and Fifth Avenue from Washington Square to Fourteenth street at seventy cents for each light per night. One United States electric light displaces six gas lamps aa they were located by the city authorities.

The cost of the six gas lamps would be $105 for one year, while tbe cost of one eleotrio light is $255 50. A better light, however, is secured. A Brush electric lamp displaces six and one third as lamps, the coat of which would be 144 67. The difference is due to the manner in which the gas lamps were placed oy the city. New York Tribune.

Bismartk's Fre6o Bfr9. According to the Berlin correspondent of the Paris Soleil, Bismarck suffers nrinci paUy from the gout. The other ills of which be complains are accessory to this; and there seems little hope of his obtaining any relief so long as he gratifies to the fullest extent his large appetite, which seems to increase rather than diminish with years. Dr. Struck and other physicians have pointed out to him the necessity of moderation in his diet; but, though be does not go to the length of turning them out of the house, as Frederick the Great did under similar i nm no recard to their.

iisi ii i i A. Fahrict Our readers are aware that we are accustomed to give considerable apace to voicing ihe industrial expressions of the Bonthern press. This is because we wish to do all that we ean toward enlightening that portion of tbe public within our reach upon the happy and rapid transformation of tbe South regarding prod active disposition and potentiality. We believe that this transformation embraces an industrial de velopment more momentous and admirable than any other phaae of progress that ia making a record tn the United States to day. The journals of the South do well to make its details in their respective fields the subjects of tbeir dally or weekly portrayals of passing events and current opinion.

The more quickly, the rest of the country comprehends and appreciates what the South Ia really accomplishing in the) commanding line of. manufacturing industries, the sooner will tbe true destiny of tho South define itself and the more speedily will ber new and ambitious spirit become a dominant (not needfully asVaninering) influence tn the world of commerce. Only one little phase of Southern progress engages our attention in this article. For several years past the cotton mills of the South have been represented with increasing magnitude in tne wholesale dry goods trade of St. Louis.

This spring, however, the position of these goods In this market has become a remarkably commanding one, and it seems as though 8S. Louis is now established as the great central emporium for the distribution of cotton fabrica from Southern mills. In severallines of ootton goods we think it said that, not a sample of New EngiatriaavMiiv acture can be bought in this city to day unless it Is a relic of old stock, or merely from commission agents instead of regular lobbing merchants. Moreover, we' think that no other city in the United States la to dsy selling ao mnen stock from Southern ills as St. Louis, in proportion to the total volume of their dry goods trade.

There is a great deal of significance In tbe situation we have outlined. No matter Lt the output of Southern factories doea represent only the rough goods of the fabric trade. Tliis indispensable foundation is firmly secured, and on lt ean quickly built a commerce of the finest finish, so wonder that as spring trade began to select and assert its course tbe dry goods merchants of New York met, as they did a few weeks since, to circumvent tho easy railway transportation of cotton goods from the South and West, No wonder, also, that a few days later on the occasion of the Southern Cotton Manufacturers' Convention, at Atlanta, members privately expressed the view that If Eastern men get rates reduced we can get rates reduced also. We can whip them any way tnay want to tight. We are ready, bat we want them to take the lead." Brown sheetings, Brown drills, tloks, ducks, cotton plaids, bags, twine, warp aod yarn arc some of the fines of goods which Southern mills dispose of threngh this market in enormous quantities.

Mills In at least six Southern States sell more or less of their output here. It is not merely the profit on these goods which counts. That is a small result comparatively. The indirect Influences of this trade reaches out in all directions and increases business, in all departments. More flour, more iron, mo re "fire brick, more horses and mules are sold la St.

Louis on account of tbe movement of these eotton goods from Southern mills to this city, and from here to all Western and Northern points within tbe scope of our trade, than would be sold if we still depended on New England mills for onr cotton fabrics, to an extent that cannot be definitely estimated, but that may relied upon as very large. We have enough faith 1 the energetlo tendencies of tbe south to feel fully confident that tbe trade, iu ootton fabrics from Southern mills will enlarge and expand until lt embraces 1 he finest aa well aa rough, grades and until New England brands are unknown in this part of the country It is not sectional favor not prejudice whicn makea us think so. We conclude thus simply because lt is the most natural coarse for trade and industry to take in the premises. And all the shrewdness and all the railway diplomacy of Eastern merebant and manufacturer, will fail to change the inevitable results, providing the Sonth adheres to the industrial policy she has at last adopted.

Louis Com. Gcuetlle, Jupiter and Orion as Seen Through the Largest Telescope Via the Jupiter is the next object to test the space annihilating glass. The prince of planets ia superb, larger than the fall moon, though but little larger than we have seen him many times in a telescope of eight inches aperture. He is, however, much brighter on account of the light collecting power of the Though by no meana as magnificent as Saturn, be far exceeds him in mass and volume, and, at he is twice aa near, we see him on a much larger scale.
