uss A New Flb Snhstltnte for Trout. j. IRochester Union. It has long been an acknowledged fact a n'van 1 If! nr 'Allf wm 4 UUHIl our lTCttUJS ailU fast becomng extinct As the country be- icomes more thickly settled the trout are rap- u.uSU. f.uuc ut i a ana ouier ariinciai oostrnctinn.o thev i are their spawning grounds, and are thus unable to replenish their depleted numbers, Iisciculturists have long been-seeking for some fish more hardy than the trout to take, its place and have found it, as 1 they believe, in me "grayling," a fish similar all respects to trout, which abounds in Europe, but which until recently was supposed not to be indigenous to this country.

As yet, however, the grayling has been found but one stream in this country the Au Sable river in Michigan. Seth Green, being confident that this fish is destined to play an Important, part in stocking our exhausted trout streams, sent to Michigan for specimens. and has received two fine grayling from D. Fitxhugh of Bay City. Mr.

Fitzhugh writes hat they are abundant in Au Sable He took those specimens with a fly.and could have made a good day's sport at the business had he felt disposed. Mr. Green has exam- ned this fish and finds it identical with the old country grayliag. If it proves to be a pring-hatching fish, as is believed to be the case. It will naturally oe more hardy than the trout and therefore well adapted to take place in the streams where the latter can do longer propagate its species, This is an important discovery, as it will saye the trouble of going to Europe for these fish, and demonstrates at the same time that the species will breed and flourish in our waters.

Seth Green will visit the Au Sable river at the rtroner time and make preparations to ex periment with the grayling. Bailer Briefly Sammed Vp. Philadelphia Chronicle.)

The Sanborn Bnalnesa The Financial Question, etc. Special to the Cincinnati Gazette of to-day .1 AJ report is expected the coming, week from the Committee on Ways and Means up on the Sanborn contracts, and possibly upon the moieties and the Jtfrnes Mr. Foster, of Ohio, has ten ready for weeks to report a bill repealing the law under which the Sanborn contracts were made; but Sanborn was promised a hearing first, and this! has caused the delay, i He is now pres- entjand will be called early in the Week. There is no foundation whatever for the statement so widely telegraphed, thatGener- al Butler has succeeded in substantiating the propriety of the collection of delinquent taxes, for which provisions was made in the Sanborn, contracts, that it is doubtful whether Mn Foster will press his bill proyiding for the. repeal of the act under which the contracts were made.

Mr. Poster has been instructed by the Committee on Ways and Means to report this bill, and would have no option if he were opposed to it, which he is not- From- the first he has been active in bringing the whole Sanborn matter to light, and when the debate occurs will exposeits character in unsparing terms. there is a strong looby influence orgamz ine to prevent the annulling of these con tracts, and threats from the Butler feide are freely, made against those members who dare to denounce them. The argument used, and that Butler made so prominent in the debate, is mat tne taxes ban born has in hand were outlawed, and could only be collected under such contracts as he held and by such methods a he adopted. fhe' fact is, not one of the caseB on his lists were, or can outlawed, and Com missioner Douglass is still regularly co lecting the same class of taxes.

One of liis agents, attending to legacy and succession taxes, has collected in the district of New York alone within a few months, at the expense of only $750, this being his sal ary! for the time. 1 the cases thus collected had been upon Sanlorn's lists, he could have commanded the services of this same man to collect these and then received half of that total amount, or. ior doing notn- ing. fSpecial to the Cincinnati Commercial of The House Committee on Banking and Currency are exceedingly. troubled lest Dawes shall succeed in having passed bis bill le galizing the issue of the forty-four million reserve, and'providing for free banking.

Maynard. has bis bill for the same purpose and covering tne same ground in etlect, which the Banking and Currency Committee have agreed to report and he wishes, of course, to have the credit of solving the financial difficulties, lliere has been and will be some sharp maneuvering between the two committees on the question. Blaine was approached yesterday to secure his reef ognitition for the introduction of Maynard's bill to-morrow, so that it might be passed under a suspension of rules, but lie refused grant the permission. As Dawes will not be in his "seat to-morrow, would be scarcely fair to take advantage of hi absence in this way. Mean while, unless through this rivalry the ques tion is soon brought up and disposed of, there seems to be little chance for an early answer to the demands of the country that be definitely settled one way or another.

I Facta for Prairie Farmer. In i860 we! had neither Greenbacks nor national bank bills, which are said to be such good things fbr the Western farmers; and yet a bushel tot prairie wheat would buy more imported sugar in 1860 than in 1874. The uty on sugar; in 1860 was 24 per cent, and tiow it is 40 pfer cent: but the difference will be allowed for in the calculation. The average price of good wheat in a large Western city, (say1- Chicago or Cincinnati in 1800-1, was 10 per bushel, the price of good yellow, C. Sugar, 9 cents a pound.

Therefore, one bushei of wheat in 1860-1, fetching $1.10 invnicago, wouia nave Dougut 1.2-9 pounds best vellow C. sutrar. at 9 cents' tr nound But in February, 1874, the average price of sound wheat in Clucago is $1.25 per bushel, and the price Of best yellow C. sugar 12 cental per bound. Now.

to mk fair comparison, we must first deduct 16 per cent from the duty in 1874 over that of 1860. average specific duty in 1874 being ,3 1-1 cents per pound, if we deduct 16' per ceat it gives a traction or over i-z per, cent, per pound. mat is to say, ii tne duty on suger were now what It was in I860, the, best yei- C. sugar could, and no doubt woulJ, be sold at 11 1-2 cents instead of 15 cents a 1rt n.n n.la TKn. I unci in ju auuo kuuuusiveiYiuuw ing that, notwithstanding a rise of 15 cents per bushel for wheat in 1874 over 1860, and putting sugar exactly on a par as to dirty with what it was in 1860, the bushel of wheat fetches over a pound of sugar less in 1874 than I860.

i Now, the simple question is whv has the bushel of wheat lost its purchasing power in lsu to me extent oi vz per cent7 strange to say, and a remarkable co-Incidence too, the gold premium is Just about equal to the loss of tne purchasing -power of the wheat But what is still; more deplorable is that the cost of raising the wheat in 1873-74 was to the farmer, at least, 20 per cent more than in 1860-1. And why does it cost him more? 8imply because the inflation of the currency has raised every conceivable thing that has the ingredients of a substance in it which has to be liquidated In. gold and not in paper. The leather we import; the wool, the thread, the silk, the glass, the jute, the hemp, the iron and steel. in short eve ry thing.

that has to be paid to Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia, and the duties collected on such imports all have to be baid in gold, which Is 13 to 15 per cent better than our currency. Hence it follows that the cost of raising wheat is necessarily higher than it would otherwise be if these premiums could be saved. In short, the farmer sim-olv 'tax a premium for all he buys, and only receives the actual value for his produce, minus the premium. newsboy's Career la Mr. William Henry Smith, Disraeli's newly appointed parliamentary 'secretary of the treasury, has a peculir "history.
