The suddenness and completeness of the change from the voluntary schools of the past year the public schools of the p-esent. Is, l« unprecedented in the history of the public school movement in this country. Last year there were in the dty thirty five or forty t-hools for white chl dren, in which were Uught, as nearly sa can be ascertained, about 1,200 sch olar*. Tne schools were all, more or less ungraded and with the exception of four or fire of the larger schools, were unprovided with soluble rooms, furniture and other requisites foresoeestfol taacnlcg. There was no supenriilon, no pcrmar.ancy in the charset* r of the ashoals, and nothing In this cute of affairs to lnvpra teachers with either a desl/e for im provement or a love for thdr profession. Titern private schools were continued to the c!o*e of the year. After an interval of one month they are superceded by the public schools, which were o »eced during tne month of February last, and in ich have si: ce been taught nearly a l the children of school sge in the city. There are at present nine public schools, vlx: twob'gh schools, five grammar -ctoolr for white-children, and two grammar schools for colored children. Number enrolled in white sehools 2,075 ** In colored schools 7B7 dren educated last year In the private schools, ccst the city a larger sum than the Instruction of the 2,815 in the Public School- during the present year.

Ia the other case the cost of education is equally distributed among the entire community, and all the children of the dty are receiving a good educa tion. The consideration that the cost of the schools is thus made apparent ia a visible tax of forty or fifty thousand dollars, fe more than counterbalanced by the fact that wi.h the same amount of money we rre giv ing a superior education to more than twice as many of the children of cor city.

This change io the educational policy of our dty will give a uew impulse to iU growth and prosperity. Toe successful establishment of Public Schools prom- ism the most favorable results in the future, and be regarded by all our inteillgcnt citizens as a su ijcct for congratulation. I entered upon the duller of my office as Superin tendent on the 15th of November last, and at thereg* ular meeting or the Bonn In that month I was also elected Srcr -tarjiof the BosrJ. Under the direction of the Committee on Rules, I prepated the rales for the government of the schools, which, together with the rules for the government of the Board, the various acts and ordinances under whies the school* were or ganized, and a brief historical sketch of the Tublic School movement, were primed and Issued in pamph let form iu January. At the meeting in Novemb r the Board determined to establish three Grammar and two High Schools, aud the Board of fix*miners wers instructed to hold an examination of all applicants for the posi tion *.f teacher in the Public Schools. This examins tion was held on Tuesday and Wednesday, 6 b and 7 th Deceaber. Eighty-three applicants were examined— sixty-six ladle* and seventeen gentlemen. Of the twenty-three ladlea and six geniletnen ware elected. The examina tion occupied two days, and was conducted wholly by writing. Printed questions, on the following sub jects ware answered by applicants for the p see of assistant teacher in the Grammar Schools; grammar, arithmetic, geography, readirg, spelling, writing, and the theory and practice of teaching. In addition to thi-se subjects, applicants for the High Schools and principals of Grammar Schools were examined in Latin, a gehra and ueoraetry. The number of questions differed with the severs 1 subjects, varying from five 10 ten. The percentage of correct answers ranged from 88, tho highest, to 33 per cent, the lowest. NOftWAL CVSTITUTK. A Teaclirra’ Institute was held in the rooms since occupied hr the Girls’ High School, commenting on Monday, January 8th, and contincing every day dur ing the week. The morning sessions were devoted chiefly to the methods and principles of education, with direct Instruction by able teacher* in grammar, arithmetic, algebra, and reading- the members of the Institute for the time becoming learners. Interesting lectures on drawing, made, school discipline, object, lessons, and other subjects abided to the interest aud profit of the occasion. During the evenings, lectures and addresses were delivered by tbe foilowirg distin- shed pvnUeracn: Dr. A. A. Lipscomb,Chsacdler of the University of Georgia, David Wills, D. D., President of Oglethorpe College of this city. Professor L F. Langford, of Mercer University, Hon. G. J. Otr, State School Commissioner, aud Professor W. LeKoy Broun, of Athens. Tbe Institute closed with a social reunion of the teacher* and their friends at Concords Hall on Friday evening. This was the first Teachers* Institute ever held In Georgia, and was regarded by those wh > attended it as a great success. There were shout fifty teachers In regular attendance, besides a large number of visitors who were present every day to witness the exercises. RCGISTRATIOX. The week following the Normal Institute, in ac cordance with previous public announcement, was devoted to the registration and classification of the children who desired admission to the Public Schools. The number applying, however, was so far beyond expectat on that two weeks were required for their examination and registration, aud tbe work closed with a list of 2.561 applicants. Tba two High Schools and the three Grammar Schools contemplated would accommodate only about one thousand five - hut dred scholars. It became necessary, therefore. Id order to pro vide for this Increased number, to rent other buildings. Houses were found, which, although not altogether suitabblc, would serve temporarily, until new bou*e* could be built—one corner of Luckie and Spring stream, and on 5 c-wner of Decalur and Pratt etrects, where are located the Luckie Street and De catur Street Schools INAUGURATION. The schools were inaugurated with suitable public exercises on Tuesday. January 30th, at the Ivy street school building. Addresses were delivered by Chan- celler Lipscomb, Rev. A.T. Spalding, D. D., Dr. 8. H. Stout, Hon. O. J. Orr, Hon. J. U. James, Mayor of the city, Hon. H. K. JfcCay of the Supreme Court, and Hon. Joseph E. Brown, President of the Board of Education. The school* were opened as follow*; Ivy street school, Wedneslay, Jcnuvy 31; Boys’ High School, Thursday, F*bru*ry 1; Girls’ High School, Monday, F.b: nary 5; Crew street school. Wednesday, February 14; Walker street school, Wedn sday, February 21 ; Decatur street school, Tuesday, February 27; Luckie street school, Thurs day. February 29. The schools were continuously in session, with ex ception of a vacation of one week in May, until their clo*c in accordance with tbs rules, on the last Friday June. COLOXXD SCHOOUI. On the firs’ of February the Board assumed charge of two colored sc-oo’s, hitherto supported chiefly by and under the control of Northern Missionary Socie ties—the Storr’s School, located, on Houston street, and the Summer Hill School, iu the Southeastern part of the city. The terms of agreement between tbe Missionary Societies and the Board of Education that the buildings w rc to be given to the Board of Education free of rent. The Board were to have the appointment of the teachers and the entire sup port and control of the school*. They were to psy the salaries of the teachers, superintend the study and instruction, and provide for these schools for the schools for white children. Sub sequently, however, a difference arising between the Board and the American Missionary Association in their understanding of the agreement relative to th* appointment of teachers to the Storr’s SchocL an agreement was made for the present year by which the nomination of teachers is given to the As sod at Ion.

The two letding con«idcrations in justification of the Public Schools, are first, the superior efficiency o' the echo* Is; and secondly, their greater economy. That a better oiueation can be given in inch schools than i* usually attained in unclassified private schools, would be apparent to any intelligent person who un derstood their organ*!at!ou, even without seeing hem in actual operation. In the Public Schools the teaching ptwer is rconomiv'd not only by the and complete class fixation of the pupils, enabling cher to eucceesfn ly Instruct a larger her of scholars, bat also hj the assignment of teachers to tbe work for which they are best fitted a s'mple’e and we!I-ba’anc< d course of instrcction. including all the stndies of the Primary, Grammar acd High Schools, is prescribed, so thvt ever scholar receives a good, substantial, symmetrical edu cation. parsing tlroagh the coarse from one grade to •mother as rapld'y aa his abilities whl permit; acd finally, all the work in the schools, both of inttrnc- tIon aud discipline, is under the supervision and guid ance of teachers of largs experience. We may therefore remsorably hope th it the expe rience of a ysar or two under onr present sytem, will demonstrate to any who may still be doubtful of their success, the superior advantages of Public Schools. The grea’er economy of Public Schools is perhaps best shown by a comparison of the cost of ics*: tion under the private school system and under tbe pr. sent plan. The cost of instruction in the private schools of this city daring the last year waa from thiee to six d< liars per month—averaging all- art four dollars p i r month. This would make the coat per schoLr forty dollars per annum. 5,259 95 Total expenses for half year $24.6!9 67 Total«x Dense* for the year 4J,2j1 31 Cost of instruction per annum per >cho!ar 14 91 Coat-per achoiar for in* true lion and current expenses . . 18 S2 Cost p«r scholar including all expenses and interest on permanent investment 20 16 TZACHZR9. The tea- hers have, with vary few exceptions, been regular and punctual In their attendance, and faithftl the performance of .their duties. Many of them are teachers of experience and skill, while the younger of them supply by energy and enthusiasm what they may lack in experience. The relations between the teachers and'Superintendent have been most pleasant and satisfactory. NOKHAL CLASS. The weekly meeting of the teachers on Saturday morning,in normal class,as it is technically called,have been kept up without Interruption slice the opening of the schools, and have been well attended by the teachers. The object of tbe normtl class is to give the teach ers better preparation for their work. AH the subjects Uught in oar tchoolsare here presented and discussed with special reference to the best methods of teach leg them; questions relating to the best management the schools, their discipline, regulations, Ac., are also discussed ; essays are read teachers on these and other educational topic*; and lectures are delivered by the Superintendent, by members of .the Board of Educa tion, and by others interested in the schools. By means of these discussions, criticisms and exer cises, the crude views and faulty methods of inexpe rienced and unskilful teachers are gradually elimi nated, and all are induced to wozk on soand princi ples and rational methods. The teachers bare generally been regular in their attendance, aud have appeared to appreciate the ad vantages of the Normal class. • A NEW GRAMMAR SCHOOL NEEDED. Another Grammar School house is inperativdy needed. The Luckie Street house, beside* .being in adequate to accommodate all the children of that por tion of the diy. Is wholly unsuitable for the neceaei- ties and purposes of a permanent school. It is im possible to make the children comfortable during the coldest part of tbe winter, aud daring storms the rain beats in on all sides. The rooms arc too email, aud have generally a dilapidated, nnrigbtly appearance When the house was obtained and put in order for school, it was supposed that we should want it only about six months. If it is necessary that we shall continue to use it during another school year, impor tant r(paira should at once be made, and suitable olackbuarda and other conveniences should be pro vided. HIGH SCHOOLS. Whilst there are comparatively few who question the propriety and the success of the Public Schools to the extent of providing a common elementary educa tion tor all, there la a number quite considerable, of who think that this common education pro vided at the public expense,9hould not extend beyond the studies of the grmmmcr school. They would leave tbe b>gher education to private schools, and to be ob tain^ by those only who are able to pay for It. $1000 reward is offered by the proprietor of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, for a medicine that will equal it in the cure of all severe cases of “Liver Complaint” and all diseases arising from impurity of the blood, as Eruptions, Pimples, Blotches, Boils, etc. f nov5deodlw&wlt. The Howe Sewing Machine was awarded the premium for the best machine with the best attachments which has been disputed by some of our jealous competitors. We invite all who are in doubt to call at the Howe office and see for themselves.

Including all expenses, - mt*. Janitor’s wages, supervision, and furniture, the >st is, in the Boy* 1 High School, $47 50. Girls’ High school, $29 10. The cost of a similar grade of in-tractiou in private schools, would be at least $80 for boys, aud $60 for girls. Five years hence, when there shall be gathered in for scientific illustration, lit will be n cuga.xed and admitted that so good an education cannot be obtain- sd in a private school at any price. Private schools "re essentially temporary in their character; public schools are permanent, and stc con stantly growing better and better, because of their in- d facilities. practical effect of leaving the higher education of our you h to volun tary schools would be that only the children 0/ the wealthy would have the opportunity of re ceiving more than an elementary education. The ex pense vjpnld be *o great that it could not be afforded by the middle and lower classes of our people. Tal ent aud capacity, however, do not belong exclusively to the children of the wealthy; these gins are pretty equally distributed among all classes; and it is cer tainly desirable in every community, that tbe bless ings ( f education should be open to the best mir ds— to those who are likely to make such education use ful, rether than that they should b« exclusively ap- p-opriated by any oue class. Another result would be that instead of _ne good High School there would be several small schools, whicb, iu order 10 sustain themselves, won d - raw pupils from the lowct grades of the Pub lic Schools, thu- practically establishing two systems of sch«M>1*. Discipline in ’he Public Schools would b » weakened; for the children of luduiging parents would be withhdrawn from these schools whenever they should meet with any trouble or discouragement, and be tent to tbe private schools. Of course the parents of such children, together with all the in terests of the private schools, would be opposed to the Public hchoola. since they would be taxed for their support, while they would have no direct in study in the Public Schools, aa* have graduated with or will be tbe bert material from which to select teachers. Their education will be symmetrical, rounded, complete. They will know how to teach all tha subjects taught In our schools, having themselves been traiued in them. They will have passed under the instructioca of several teachers, some of whom the most skillful instructors in our schools, and y will enter upon the curies of the! with the best of our teachcrsas their mo Were we to abandon our High Schools and leavo the higher education to private schools, we should findth.ma poor reliance for.a supply of teachers. There would be in such schools no full and system atic coarse of study, no supervision, no tests of re sults. and no high scholarship attained. The standard of qualiflratious would have to be lowered;to meet tbe character of tbe applicants, or we should be com pelled to invite better scholarship and experience from at road. This wuu:d be bad pol icy. We most educate own teachers; and we can do tbit successfully only in our High Schools. if higher education more compteteiy than private d by < ... education which nan fairly tested a High School for five years. ••The influence of the nigh School upon the other schools is believed to be w-.«rtb more than all that it costs, independent of the advantages received by its actual pupils. This influence is exerted chiefly the successive stages of promotion from the lowest division of tbe primary to tbe highest division of the grammar school. The influence fi felt by those who do not mch the High School, quite as much as by those who do. It is an influence petvad- icg tha whole public School System.” COLORED SCHOOLS. it onght not needkaa^y to be surrendered. There ia no institution so thoroughly republican both in spirit and in practice aa a well-regulated school—especially a public schooL There, more than anywhere rise, each individual stands on his real merits, not only before hi* te'cber. but in the eyes cf his classmates.

At this very time there are probably half a million of people in the United States suffering from periodical fevers by myasmatic fogs and exhalations. What makes the prevalence of this evil the more deplorable is the fact that it might in all cases be easily prevented. Malaria and damp produce little or no effect upon the system pro-fortified by a course of Hostctter’s Stomach Bitters. Every fall and spring hun dreds of letters are received from persons re siding in fever and ague districts, who state that while their neighbors are incapacitated for labor by that debilitating disease, they have been happily exempted from attack by the regular uso cf the great vegetable anti dote to miasma. As a chlologopic or specific for intermittent aud remittent fevers the Bit ters may I e justly accounted iufallible. They eradicate the complaints in their most obsti nate forms; but the wiser course is to fore stall attack by the regular use of the great vegetable antidote to miasma. As a chlolo gopic or specific for intermittent and remit tent fevers the Bitters may be justly account ed infallible. They eradicate the complaints in their most obstinate forms; but the wiser course ia to forestall attack by taking the preparation as a preventive. The amount of productive labor withdrawn from active ser vice during several.months in the year by ma larious maladies is immense, and the pecun iary losses to individuals, families, and the nation from this cause is incalculable. Bear iu mind that by toning and regulating the system with Hostetler’s Bitters before the calamity comes, it may always be escaped; and let it also l>e remembered that indiges tion, general debility, biliousness, constipa tion, nervous complaints, aud indeed almost all disturbances and derangements of the physical system arecontrolableby this genial restorative. nov5-deodlw&wlL Cottan-l*. 9* The receipts this week are 122,000 bales— 26,000 more than last year, and 16,000 more than two years since. It is likely the receipts for next week will be about 120,000 bales compared with 105,000 last year, and 182,000 the year before; and the receipts at the inte rior towns 40.00J bales, compared with85,000 last year, and 41,000 the year before. This week the weather has been dear and pleasant five days, and partially doudy, windy anl cool for two days, with a light rain one night, and a heavy, white frost one night. The week generally has been much the coolest of the season, the thermometer averaging 63 degrees at noon. The indica tions are we shall have a heavy killing frost throughout the cotton growing region within two weeks. As we write there is a cold, light rain failing. Our readers will remember these articles are written for the cotton week, dosing Fri day night and beginning again Saturday morning. The market in New Y*rk was active and h’eher for the first four days of the week, with sales of 14,000 bales. The last two days have been smaller sales, (only 4,000 bales) and prices wejk and drooping; closing at the same price as last Friday—19fc. This fluctuating market has been due to a corner in October contracts, caused by a large bear interest, and a small stock of available cot ton in New York, added to which there has been one cent decline in gold—that article closing at 11| premium. As the price has been forced np at an unnatural time of the year, there will now be a strong pressure to force it down again, many persons expecting a decline of at least one cent a pound. We see no reason for this, and do not think the price will go below 19fr at this time. The fast half cent rise was an unnatural one, and we do not expect any serious decline now, with a small quantity of American cotton everywhere, and Manchester higher and firm for yarns and fabrics. In this connrction we would add, that although there have been complaints from Manchester of dull trade and no profit, caused, principally, by the high price of coal and higher prices paid to ope ratives, (these two items alone adding to the cist of manufacturing f of a pound,) still the sales and exports of goods from Great Britain, so f*r this year, have been 2 percent on cloth and 5 per cent on yarns over the very large sales of 1871, when cotton and good* were very much cheaper than this year. The cxjtort of yarns for Sep tember was 2J percent in«*re than the same month last year, and much of the surplus stock which has been weighing down that market has beun sold Liverpool has l»t*en active wilh large sales and a rise of onc-fonrth of a penny. This is due to the facts stale 1 above—to the active market on this side, and lathe small stock of all kinds in Liverpool, -particularly Ameri can, of which there arc only 36.000 bales, one-half of which is unfit for spinning pur poses. We have estimated the receipts for next week at less than the total this week, because the election will interfere somewhat Some Blessings brighten as they take their flight The chief of blessings is good health, without which nothing is worth the having; it is always appreciated at its true value after it is lost, hut too of ten not before.

Ex-Senator Hunter goes from Virginia to New York to say with that direct manly candor which no one has ever ventured to impugn: “Fellow-citizens, to give you my reasons for supporting Greeley in a few words, I de clare to yon in the first place: That I desire to sow the seeds of sympathy and affection among all our people, that the tie of citizen ship may become a common bond and mu tual support to all its members. For that reason among other reasons 1 vote for Hor ace Greeley, as he is the leader of this great movement. Secondly, I desire to cultivate hftmony, just feeling, and affection among the different races in the Southern States, be cause they are essential to the prosperity and happiness of the whole—a matter in which we in the South have much deeper interest than can exist elsewhere, for our success and happiness in a very great measure depend upon it For this reason I support Horace Greeley, because I believe that he will do what he can to prmlnce this harmony of feel ing.” TIToodliull. 1456 1.259 1, 60 2S42 are regular in their attendance, and obedient acd or- d«*rlT in their deportment.

The fact show3 a better gene- ’ral state of public opinion North than many of us have believed. The general repugnance to her filthy doctrines, and their emphatic disapproval so practically shown, have given the idea that there is a broad substratum of conscience and right underlying the society of this whole land still uncorrupted and promising hope for the country. We also politely inform our neighbor that we shall continue to discuss Woodhull and any other theme that seemetb proper for the entertainment of onr readers. And do it always we trust in that propriety of manner due them and ourselves. ly receipts for the year, and the fall in the nice and less active markets. Last year the ncrease for next week was 9,000 bales, and the year before 26,000. We think Galveston and Norfolk have about reached their maxi mum weekly receipts—12,000 and 15,000— because in the past five years Galveston’s largest weekly receipts were 12,000 bales December 16th, 1870, and Norfolk’s larges* weekly receipts for same time were 15,000 bales, December 2d, 1870, and the largest weekly receipts at that port last year were 13.000, October 27th. The stocks of cotton in Liverpool and afloat for that port, are very much smaller than they have been for the past four year*, at same time, as the following statement will show, given in thousands: 1868. 1869, 1879. 187*. 1672. Stocks.. 420.000 898 000 463 000 517,000 467,000 Afloat.... 384,000 34,000 218,003 369,000 204,000 Total.... 804.000 739 000 711,903 883,100 671,900 The amount afloat is usually all received in five to six weeks; in 1853 the time was seven weeks; in 1869, six weeks; in 1870 and in 1871, five weeks; we now estimate the amount afloat will be received in five weeks; and as it is likely the takings* from Liverpool for spinning and export mil be 75.000 per week, for same time, they will have but 390,000 bales for total stock De cember 6th, compared with 445,000 last year, and 370,000,339,000 and 350,000 for the three previous years. The American cotton in Liverpool and afloat for that port for the past four years, same time, is as follows: , 1870. 1871. 1872.

The receipts this year, so far, show nearly 200.000 bales more than auy year since the war, for same time; and still the quantity oc American in sight is much less than the past two years, same time. Oar readers will please understand that all our figures mean thousands, whether the 000 ore added or not. 1868. 1839. 1870 187!, 1875 Stocks inte’r ports 40,000 53.000 43, OfO 54, 43, U.

"We agtin compare with 18C9; as the re ccipts that year were the largest per cent of any since the war. being up to ami including November 1st, 480,000 bales; which was 16 per cent of the total receipt at the ports. This year the receipts have been G 15,000 bales, for the same time. Taking tbe receipts as abasia it makes this crop 4,185,‘•00 bales. Taking the per cent as a basis it ranke3 this crop 4.- 031.000 to be received nt the port; to which must be added for overland and Southern consumption, 250,000 more; making total crop 4,281,000. But ns these figures are much too lanje, we suppose there has been 19 oer cent of the crop received up to and including November 1st, making total crop 3,650.000 bales; which is our prceent estimate. Our own spinners are taking much larger amount than ever before; having taken f*»r two months 150.000 bales, compared with 103.000, 114,000 131.000 and 109,000 for the past four years same time. Tbe exports to foregin countries for two months are 245,000 compared with 183.000. 242.000 and 2U7.000 for the past three years same time. The exports to the continent are very large this year, being to this date 94,00% compared with 17,000,20,000, and 89,000 for the past three years, same time. This shows they are nearly hare of American cotton, and are wil ling to buy at present prices. The stock at Havre is now 233,000 bales, only 25,000 of which is American; la*t year the stock was 120.000. 55.000 of which was American Our last London letter states that it is not likely the rate of interest will be raised again this year; and if it should be reduced it would be much easier to carry large stocks of cotton than it is at tbe present time. As to the price, we think it dangerous to be short of cotton just now ; even if the market should decline, the profit will not pay for the risk. ^THE EPIZOOTIC. Its Humors and Damages in New York. Old Brr?Uoa thoXtempagt—-Stag- nation of Business—Fortunes Lost—People Jolly— A Plague At 11:31 yesterday morning Mr. Bergh, ac companied by Superintendent Hortficld. Mr. Keans, and other members <-f bis staff sta tioned himself on the Third avenue track at Fiflk street and the B »Aery. In about two minutes a crowd numbering not less than a thousand persons surrounded Mr. Bergh, and tho street was soon blocked. Mr. Bcrgli had determined to stop sach horses attached to Third avenue care as he deemed unfit to work, and he began at once. Policemen were on the spot to keep back the throng The up cars were not stopped. The first car which arrived on the down track was driven into the crowd, and then stopped by Mr. Bergh. Policemen were ready to enforce his orders if necessay. Mr. Bergh carefully examined the horees, and ordered them taken back to the stables. The order was obeyed,* the passengers disembarked without much grumbliug, and the car was switched upon the up track and started back toward the s'a- b!es. This was continuei until 4:30, during which time but seven cars were passed. In a brief time after this work was begun the road was blocked with cars. Mr. Bergh continued the examination. A majority of the specta tors seemed to approve his action, as many of them said so. Almost without exception the drivers took the situation good naturedly, and quietly applied the brake aud brought their horses to a standstill when they had reached Mr. Bergh. About one team in ten was allowed tq pass. Nearly all the horses were running at the nose, but now and theo after inspecting a sepan Mr. Bergh said, “Well, those horses are in very fair bodily condition, and yon can drive on.” The speech moie commonly heard was, “Take yonr hordes back to the stable.” The drivers looked on smiling while Mr. Bergh was making the examination, and when the edict went forth, many of them unshackled their teams with the jocular remark to the crowd, “Look out for these horses. They’ll kick.” Whereupon the crowd looked at the jaded beasts, and laughed when they thought of the impossibility of the animals kicking. Many ffTthe drivers responded to the order “Take that team off,” with a cheery “All right,” while a few weregrum and sullen. THE STAGNATION OF TRADE. The epidemic has well nigh paralyzed trade. Wholesale and retail dealers alike feel its influence, and are alike inconvenienced and annoyed. The milkmen, ice-dealers, butchers, grocery aud provision men, mer chants, their customers,and everybody except BY TELEGRAPH TO THEATIA2FTA COXSTITUTIOK of the ports have reached their largest week- politicians, who arc riding hobbies which ,Tr tK - any amount of “epizootic” influences could not choke, arc seriously affected by the mala dy, and are suffering in a business point of view. On the East and North river wharves, for two miles from the Battery, lie immense heaps of freight and merchandise awaiting transportation. The shippers are thoroughly alarmed, and well they may be, for they are daily losing fortunes. The accumulation of a week’s business remains untouched, and it is probable that it will be another week ere the piers are again cleared. FORTUNES LOST BT THE GRAIN TRADH. The grain and flour merchants feel the effects of the disease as much as any depart ment of trade. It is their busy season. The fall crops are beginning to pour into tbe market by railroad and canal, and foreign orders are being rapidly received. The ca nals arc virtually closed, the tow hoises being down with tbe prevailing dis emper. The boats that continue running have advanced freights to such an enormous figure that the transportation of consignments already pur chased, from Uswega and Buffalo, will more than eat up the profits on the grain. The railroad depots and cars contain thousands of bushels of grain and thousands of barrels of flour, and each hour adds largely to their num ber. The companies are unable to deliver it, and the o#ner cau not hire it carted to his ware house. To reship it by another railroad line or by water is impossible, as the approaches to the cars or vessels arc clogged with the ac cumulation of a week’s business. 80 uncer tain is transportation that scarcely any busi ness has been doue by the grain dealers for several days, and thousands of dollars have been lost through inability to cart breadstuffs. In the docks are hundreds of canal boats, Which have been towed from Albany, which are lying idle, waiting for an opportunity to discharge their cargoes. This it will be im possible for them to do for a week to come, and possibly the boats will be so long detained that they will be unable to make another trip this season. The delay is aggravating because of the demand for boats to bring to the Eastern market tho large quantities of grain which are enroutc on the great lakes. OCBAN STEAM SUITS DBLAY8D. To-day the ocean steamers sail. They will all be compelled to depart with one-third the usu.nl amount of freight. What has been placed on board has been by lighters, and at tended with great expense. Some of the companies will not start their steamers for several days. The Idaho, which should have bad 3,450 bales of cotton in her hold yester day. morning, did not have on board 500 bales. Her other freight amounts to but a few tons. Where uoii i\!-j teams are generally busily loading the ocean steamers, but one or two could be seen yesterday. At S ier 44, National Line of ocean steamers, usiacss ia altogether suspended, as none of the horses of the company arc able to work. The India, which arrived yesterday, has not been able to discharge her freights. To-day lighters will attempt the work.* THB FRUIT DEALERS RUINED. The effect *f non-transportation on the fruit trade was noticed in yesterday’s San. The condition of affairs hourly grows more alarming, and fortunes' have been lost through "the decay of the fruit Newly ar rived vessels are unable to discharge their cargoes, and thousands of dollars* woith of fruit are rotting in their holds. Long expo sure to the weather will destroy much of the merchandise which crowds the wharves*, and the small armies of river thieves which have suddenly put in an appearance ore get! away with much valuable booty. Large dilions were made to the usual force of watch men along the piers. The Great Southern Freight line have but two trucks at their disposal. Thc.e,witii the assistance of lighters, have got on board one vessel about half her ordinary cargo, and sh9 will to-day sail as usual. With this, as with every other transportation company, a serious circumstance is that large numbers of the employees, drivers and handlers, are thrown out of employment. The sugar refineries along the river and else where are without sugar, and have many of them temporarily suspended business. Large sums of money have been offered for the transportation of sugar from the vessels to the sugar houses. MOUNTAINS OF MBRCHANDISB. Associated Press Dispatches. | WASHIN GTON. GONE HOME TO VOTE.

EPIZOOTIC ABATING—WOODHULL AND CLAF LIN’S CASE—BAPTIST CONFERENCE. New York, November 4—The horse mal ady is abating. It is believed that it will not lastimorejthan a week. A disagreeable feature of the epidemic is the number of^carcasscs in the street, facilities for removal not equal to the demand. Stephen Pearl Andrews has been arrested, implicated in the Wood null Claflin inde- ncies. At 2 o’clock to-day the United States Grand Jury found indictments agaiust Victo ria Woodhull and Tenny C. Claflin, who were arrested on Saturday, charged with mailing indecent printed matter through the >osL Tne prisoners were taken from Lud- ow Street Jail at 1 o’clock and brought before Commissioner Osborne, who stud the. indictments relieved him from the necessity holding an examination. The accused visibly affected. On hearing of the in dictments Woodhull was almost moved to tears, and Clafiiu looked 6cmewhat defiant The counsel for ihe prisoners complained of conduct of the government in pressing indictment, pending the examination a most arbitrary proceeding. The acrused came prepared for the fullest examination. The Commissioner ordere warrants fol lowing the indictments to be served upon *’ b accused and they were removed to jail default of $8,009 bail each.

Comment is needless. It is a bold, un qualified enunciation of central doctrine that those who are seeking to assimilate Greeley’s position to Grant’s will do well to compare with the positive utterances of the Baltimore platform and Greeley’s acceptance in favor of local self-government Attorney General Williams distinctly de clared for the obliteration of State lines, as the grand design of the Ridical party. There is no mistaking the purpose. It ia not even sugar-coated. It calls for a Federal despotism. The man who in the face of such declara tions as this, alleges that Grant and Greeley stand together on the great issue of central ism, is either destitute of sense or truth. In the light of these revolutionary declara tions of Grant’s Attorney surely Democrats cannot and will not persist in the folly of in directly aiding them by dividing the D> mocracy.

The condition of the cotton market is even worse than as printed in yesterday’s Sun, Thousands of bales arc piled high on the wharves, and but few trucks are removing the rapidly increasing mass. Before many of the freight companies* wharves the street is partially blockaded with cotton and gen eral merchandise. The Great Southern Freight Company, which owns 200 horsce v has not been able to make any inroad on their merchandise The B'*ston and Fall River Companies are completely blockaded with merchandise, and it is said at their wharves that no more freight will be received until things improve. The India, of the Anchor line, is being loaded with lighters. The company’s wharves arc blocked with freight which has been discharged from incoming steamers, and which awaita transportation to # its destina tion. Only two trucks were at work on the pile yesterday, aud their effect was scarcely visible. They hardly attempted anything but some of the more valuable packages The agent at the different piers say that goods are rotting, and will be ruined before by any possibility they can 1 e removed.
