ABUNDANCE OF MONEY.

One Of the strongest evidences of the abundance
of money this tme is the fact that the Banks
doing little or nothing in the way of discounts. Bus
mess men appear, general rule to HAYES sucien-
cheney of money for all their purposes, without Dor
rowing; while those who are blessed with superb
bundance of the material - seeking for il
safe and profitable investments. Monisd men are
calculating more on getting interest than paying
it and under these circumstances, we would not be
surprised if the State Bonds recently put in market
by the Public Treasurer, should command hand
some sum above par.
The country is prospecting in every department of
trade and industry. The planters receiving fail
we may say high prices for their cotton, tobacco,
corn, &c. and when they are doing well. all other
interests necessarily in healthy condition.
We hope this state of prosperity may not prove
either deceptive of brief continuance. 1t is well,
however, to act with prudence and crcumspection.
in all probability change in money matters, and
fall in prices, may not be very far ahead Nothing
may be lost, while great deal may be gained, or
rather saved by the exercise of prudence and caution
