REVOLUTION IN PRIGEs.-Various branches ofbusi-
in this city beginning to deveope themselves,
under the new hard money system, with exraordi-
nary alacry We mentioned yesterday, in our Wall
street article that the Stewarlsin Broadway had cea
ted great business in dry goods by reduction Of
prices to the specie standard. The same thing may
be said of the hardware and cutlery trade. Charles
H. Dclavan, SO Maiden Lane, gave notice that he re-
ccivcd all city bills, at the old prices. We have no
doub, but in the specie currency standard all these
prices will be reduced. Mr.. Delavan has splendid
store of goods laid in at reasonable prices. Try him,
fair ladies'.
If the merchants Dealers retail or wholesale, would
generally announce reduction Of prices, payable in
specie, we have no doubt such announcement
would fetch from its hiding places, vast quantities of
gold and silver waiting for an opportunity to be
invested at hard money rates. BY this means the
general business of New York can be revived in
month on the new system. Why will not the hard
money people make general announcement to this
effect 1t would revive confidence, and increase trade

TaE REsIsTASce MEETING THE EXCHANGE
The time is past when the Courier and Enquirer could
raise mob or excite an instruction. The insane ra
wings of its editor, now treated as they deserve
and excite nothing but smile of dersion. No man
in New York stands better chance for the insane
hospital than our old friend Whiskerandos.

Of its clustering bravadoes, by calling meeting Of
