At tWJ Juncture Speaker Ketfr could appreciate Artkmtjb Ward's observations about the military eompany 'which had enly one private soldier.

This Is striking rather high for McKihlxt, bat he may be running on the principle thai nothing is too good lor Ohio.

Dkckmbek 20th is Editors' Day at the Atlanta Exposition. Ail the leadinganews paper men of the country have been invited to be present.

Mr, Foster may have railroad business at the Metropolis, bnt there doesn't seem to be any thing for 1dm to do at the Capital. The Stalwarts have kindly taken charge of any interest Ohio may have in the affairs of the Uovernment.

A "TAt-PHEK," in a communication' to the Emqcibea this morning, makes some pointed suggestions to those having the care of the munificent gifts made over to Cincinnati, lie would have them so secure that they can never lapse into the of private owners. There food for reflection in the suggestion. Senator Kbmckdm is reported to hare expressed the opinion that Congress will adjourn about the lSth'of May. Now, if Mr. Edmu.ni had said the 1st of April we might have hoped for a cessation of legislative hostilities by the Fourth of July.

The moot experienced public man can not comprehend, the "hanging-on" ability of Congress. Rkfrrrino to the fashion of poking fun at the OongrtMitmal Record, an exchange says "if some editor would preserve it instead of throwing it into the waste- basket they would be able to use a fact occasionally in their political arguments." The facts in the Ongresional Record do not come close enough together to inter-fore with the machinery of a paper-mill. 1 i i ii 1 1 ii Tsra Boston TYarHler says "the four great Stales have fonr of the great omces ef the Republic." New York the Presidency, Illinois the Presidency of the Senate, Ohio the Speakership, and Pennsylvania the Clerkship of the House. And it professes to be satisfied With this arrangement. Massachusetts, having the Adams family and Bkx Butler, probably feels that all else is vanity: Thk plan for the erection of a Central Station-house on the north side of George street, between Central avenue and John street, the site selected and purchased by the city for this purpose several years ago, is being revived.

The lot is still owned by the city, and is amply large. The necessity for this improvement is more urgent now than when was first proposed, for the Central Station on Ninth street, as it grows older, grows viler, and the atmosphere in hich the underground cells are located luore poisonous. A great city like Cincinnati should be more pretentious in her Aiiy buildings, The city at leaet should have its most important quarters for temporary prisoners above ground, and in a location where every Sunday publie.de- Oency Is hot liable to be mocked at by fotds drunken roue on his way to a cell. Such mockery is not uncommon nowadays Opposite the Central Christian 'Church. services in this temple have ofteu been disturbed by the ribaldry of a drunken prisoner.

The location selected on Oeorge street is in a neighborhood Where the presence of a Station-house would prove peculiarly wholesome, Let the noisome, subterranean Ninth-street 1 Station-house be speedily abandoned." ateeeat City Leglslat MsMoke Caia aaaaers and rire-Kseapea. Two Important ordinances have passed both branches of the City Council and will aoon become municipal laws. On of these is the'ordlnance to abate the smoke nuisance the other to provide for the use of nre-eaeapes. i I The ordinance relating to the consumption of smoke will take effect on the second day of next month. On and, after that data every establish meht in tha city where a furnace is employed, either with or Without a steam boiler, must be provided -with a device for the consumption of the Smoke.

The ordlnanoe is sweeping in IU application, including all establishments having a furnace, of whatever site or vhraeter, the 1ettef information of the reader we quote that portion of the yrdlnanoe covering these points: "That every (orstet en ployed, or bees. Iifisd. Mu Cuyss Ctaeinaati, la the wotls las of engiBes by steam, aad every furnace employed, or to fee empiorvd, la any milk, factory, printing-house, dye-bouse, iron foundry, gas-boose, or saaJt-hoaae, bakery, gas-works, wsUr-WOrks, or other balldlngs used for tae parpose of trade or manbfaetore within the limit of said elty (altboagh a steank engine be not used or employed therein), shall, la all vsaeea, be eon-sir uc ted or altered eo as te eonsume or bara the amoke arising frosa sneh faraaee; and If say person shall hereafter within, said elty limits nse aay sueh farnaee which shall not be eOBatraeted so as to toMflm of barn Its own smoke, or shall so negligently us any such furnace as that the smoke arising therefrom 'shall not be' effectually consumed or berat, or shall carry en may trade business which shall occasion any thing obnoxious Or offensive, otherwise annoy the neighborhood or inhabitants, without using the beat practicable means tofprevtntlng or counteracting seen anaoyaaee. every perse so Shading, owing the owaer or oosuptec of the premises, or being a foreman or other person employed by sack owners or ocenplers, shall, open conviction forsaoh offense before the Police Court, forfeit and pay a sum net lass tbsd 920 nor more than too; knd, opon a second eonvietlon for such offense, the sum Of SSO; and for all subsequent edavleUoas for seen offense the sum of S100." Tbero should be but little difficulty experienced in the enforcement of this lawj and but -little is expected. The erusada against smoke is A popular one.

It was inaugurated by the ladies of the city, and their tanks were rapidly recruited nntil the army was a formidable one. The fight was carried on with intelligence and perseverance, and it la now practically won. The rest is for the city authorities to do. Popular, opinion, we doubt not, will see that the provisions Of the ordinance are faithfully carried From the smoke nuisance we are all sufferers in oommon, and we should make common causa against it. We might perhaps commute In dollars and cents the damage to the merchant's fabrics from smoke and soot, but the annoyance these grimy visitors bring to the housewife can only be.

estimated in tears and heartaches. This question of smoke consumption, therefore, to borrow a line from Bacon, "comes home to men's business and bosoms." Tha ordinance does not specify what sort of device shall be Used for consuming the smoke from our furnaces. There is open competition between All the various devices. Yon are at lfberty.to put your money where you think you will get the best service The cost of these appliances is from 100 to 9175, and It Is claimed the return will arise not only in purer atmosphere, cleauer offices, pleasanter homes and a city purified generally, but in a aaving in fuel. On this latter point the Boston Journal of Cheminliy, a high authority, offers this evidenco: Hmoke is unburnt carbon, or fuel thrown away.

The torrents of black vapor from oar chimneys contain thousands ol tons of oual. lost becuale we have not learned how to save it. The time will, come when this will be reckoned as foolish ss we should now eonelder It to shovel eoal Into the sea. The chemical lecturer of the next century will tell til audience bow long it was before tha world learned to burn fuel witnout blowing a great part of It into the air." The ordinance relating to fire-escapes, to which reference has. been made, is even more important than Jho one regarding the prevention ofk amoke.

This seeks to protect human life. It provides, in brief, for the use of suitable fire-escapes in all buildings in the city occupied above the first floor for msnufacturing purposes or as tenement houses. It is hoped that the thousands of men, women and children employed in our factories and living in our tenement houses surrounded by dan ger both by day and night will not be obliged to insist upon the protection which every employer and landlord should be anxious to give them. Tate Bnslneas SUctatlen. The condition of the commerce of the eoun try at the.

present time cannot be regarded otherwise than sound. The past week Ass shown a falling oft in the total volume of transactions, but this Is customary and pected at this season. Against this is offset an unusual and wide-epread demand for hoil day goods at the leading tsade-centsrs. The clasaof artleleaia deraaud is notably of amors expensive variety, and tnis goes far to snow a healthful financial statas among ail grades ef society, The industrial activity through but the country continues to exolte the surprise and gratification of writers for the press who deal with topics of that class. "This 1 es pecially true of the Iron manufactories.

Oc casionally one heard ominohs expressions as to the outcome of the excessive activity, with particular application ta the enormous increase in railroad build lag. The popular es timate ef sixteen thousand mile of. railroads said te be projected for construction In 1H32 appears, In connection with the In crease thla year over that of last, to be the foundation for this. Considerations of thla character tend to revive a special interest la the subject of the recur rence of the so-ealled cycles of commercial prosperity and depression. Kinee 1857 the nearest approach to wide-spread disaster la the mercantile community was lb at of How ever the Intervening of the war Injected a factor Which prevents Immediate and eom-prehenaive analysis.

The rebound, np to the present, has been perfect. Business, commer cial. Industrial and agricultural, has for four years been Improving with rapid strides. The situation to-day excites congratulation, and, among the more conservative, aa Inquiry a td the possible proximity of commercial disaster. On the whole.

It la fair to presume that the future la not so clonded aa pessimist of extreme views would have eae- believe. We think this posltloa a unable eh. The bail- ness world is not a heedless or ntfthlaklag one. tariog the past decade rapid advances have been made in the science of commerce. In addition to this a fortunate Providence has intervened.

The in en of the ecu try in whose bands its material advancement real have. during the time noted, taken advantage of vast development In commercial journalism. This baa contributed teth public weal through not only ef the better Class ef special trade papers, but the dally newspaper press of the country. The apace in the ear-bale of the United States devoted to-day to tbe consideration of commercial, industrial and agricultural interests is a great advance 6a that of This has A6t only educated the bnslneaa man la the science of his pur suits, oat ha placed and ooatlnaee to pat him In of data which Increase hia opportunities for success. This is shown particularly la the condition of the stock market at Mew York, London and Paris.

The reasonable explanation of this la that the dear public have realised, throagh the ot the press, that in A majority of lnataace the big stock scheme were projected for the benefit the few, or that tbe ontoom ef blind investment on top of tha overtaxed situation would end ladisaateh Beyond all this earn the short erops of the present season, tn th I country, which acted as a powerful preventive against the rude riot Which might have grown ont Of aa unwise expansion of business transactional It 1. therefore to this exhibition of general conservatism that one is fairly entitled the belief that a period Of commercial depression, er disaster, la not saeneaiag tbe country la the immediate fainr. Of tbe alleged short cotton crop, St which much baa recently been writteA, there are earn eokslderatlons Worthy of aote. Tb so-ealled short crap men look for A falling off of 800,000 bale by January 1st, aseomparea with receipts lat year.
