GALVESTON, TEXAS, I
Tuesday Evening. March 10, 1874. f
There has been very little doing in
commercial circles to-day, although the
number of merchants from the interior
of the State lias increased considerably.
Home improvement is looked for tomor-
row. The hide market is active and
firmer, and full prices are paid for all
arrivals, though these are few. Wool is
still nominal. The cotton market has ex-
hibited marked quietude, the sales projier
being only 500 bales. The receipts at
all jmrts have boen light, but the tone of
ti e New York and Liverpool markets
has not been encouraging
The coffee market is active, and the
stock in first hands is now reduced to a
few hundred bags. There is only one
cargo afloat for this port, so the latest
telegrams from Rio state.
The name of the vessel is not stated,
but the extent of the cargo is known to
be :1500 bags, and it will be tho last cargo
this season. These facts impart firmness
to prices and induce a good denvind.
UtEK JtTTK.
Representative Clayton, of San Fran-
| cisco, who is connected somewhat with
j the grain trade, has introduced a bill
into Congress, providing that jute im-
ported into the United States, and grain
bags which have beeu used and returned
to the United States, shall l>e admitted
free of duty, and that the duly on bur
laps hereafter imported shall be reduced
to fifteen per cent., and on manufactured
graiu bags to twenty-five tier cent. The
effect will be beneficial to the cotton in-
terest, as it will reduce the cost of bag-
ginjr.
SPECIE PAYMENTS VS. INFLATION.
Over a hundred and fifty leading bank-
ers and merchants of Chicago have signed
a petition in favor of a resumption of
specie payments at the shortest notice.
This list embraces the names of about a
dozen bank presidents, and nearly as
many cashiers, and of all the leading
merchants of the city. This is much
better evidence of the sentiment of Illi-
nois on the currency question, than tho
rampant speeches of her Representatives
in Congress. The inflationists seem to
think that success awaits their project
for the ruin of the nation's credit, and
for the repudiation of the nation's obli-
gations. but they have not got quite out
of the woods. As Senator Conkling pithi-
ly says, the proposition to launch this na-
tion upon a sea of irredeemable paper
money, " involves a falsehood, a lie, and
a lie in the end will upset everything,
from an apple-cart to an empire."

torney for the Eastern District of Texan,

H. F. OlM.ETTE, Secretary.
A Nobi.k Skntkm ic.— Lord Derby,
in :i recent ftpeecli, thux portrays the
great aim and purpose of a noble life:
Itiglit and wrong, honor, duty ami
country, benevolence toward men, and
responsibility toward the unseen pow-
er by which human actions are guided
and controlled—these are not idle
phrases. They are realities which
correspond with the deepest wants and
feelings of our nature; and no man
will feel himself utterly cast down
who can say in his heart what the
wisest and best of the human race
have proclaimed in the whole tenor of
their lives: Whether I am happy
or unhappy is not my chief affair;
what most and first concerns me is to
find iny work in life, to recognize it,
and to do it.
The army, small as it is, seems des-
tined to be still further reduced:
The bill agreed upon by the House
Committee on Military AlTairs, reduces
the number of infantry regiments to
twentv instead of twenty-live; of ar-
tillery to fonr in place of live, ami of
cavalry to eight instead of ten. The
aggregate of the army is made 25,(>00
in place of :tt),00<), as at present. One
year'* pay is offered to officers who
will resigri in older to reduce the num-
ber of iupernumeraries created by this
reduction. _
It is reported that tho Chinese Gov-
ernment has avowed its inability to
protect foreigners residing in Tientsin.
