The Commercial RevuIsion In California
Commercial BIuntlers.

--~N~-e~s~A1S
The revulsion in California is spreading
Merchants as well as bankers are falling; it is
quite certain by this time that the Pacific
coast is to have its 1887 at once. With what
amount OF disaster il may be accompanied, il il
hardly possible to conjecture. We have seen
enough OF California life from those who have
returned to these States to know that as a
general thing the social habits of the Califor-
mans were not well adapted to encounter 8
period OF hardship or monetary s.ringeacy.
At San Francisco, almost every man lived be-
yono bis means. Dealing in gold, constantly
engsged in receiving IL, weighing It, shipping
It, recording II by the million, they had cone
naturally enough to think lighly of eagles aud
their aliquot parts, and baving earned taem
easily, parted with them freely Their houses
were magnificent, their style Of living wholly
incommensurate with the legitimate profits Of
business, and unsuited to the age of the State
When they travelled bitherward, they chal-
lepeed notice by their lavish expense, until tne
vulgar belief arose that Californian was ne
cessarily rough bearded nS,n, with an inex-
haustible purse Of dollars and neyes- failing
knife. The events of the past few weeks are
dispelljng the delusion in only too lamentablea
way. There is something very mournful ia
the account of the miners at Sonora assem-
bling, breaking open the vaults of Adams &
Co., and distributing the funds discovered
therein through the hands Of q committee, to
the holders OF certificates. Too certain it ia
that the resources which ought to be available
to meet the present emergency have been
wasted that the money which ough. to be
used 70 pay of debts and s.ave OF bark
Juptcy has long ago found its way to the At
lantic States in payment for silks aud satins,
rich furniture, and magnificent plate, for al!
the thousand expensive luxuries that civilized
industry is ever ready to supply to unciyi,zed
extravaganza.
Yet let us not play the Pharsec OYER the
misfortune of the youngest daughter Of Ameri

faults are those Of no State more CONSEQUENTLY

San francisco, there are dozen here. For
every spendthrift from the Sacramento to the
Pacific beach, We car count score. Not many
months ago, the bell sounded for New York,
and men loaded with wisdom and experience
saw in the signs of the times clear symptoms Of
second 1887. It has not come. Bat who
rhall say that the danger is past At the hour

PROBABLE EFFECTS OF THE War OK A..
RIcULTURE.-A correspondent of the Reb
mOnd Enquirer, writing from Liverpool. On
the war, says the spirit Of the English is uni
ted in favor Of the war, and that men and
money will be voted for IFS continuance, By
Parliament. lie adds:
aYct when drained Of her men, when A
many thousands now engaged in peaceful
pursuits are taken away, and the labor of the
country thus manifestly iessencd, who, pray
are to furnish meat and bread Tor these ya,,
armies, and the population that yet rriDans 4,
home! There IS no. a mouth less To feed.
ami many less left to produce the nerrsssr,
food for all at home or abroad. Russia viii
send nothing from the Baltic, and the great
wheat growing country on the Danube, and
that whirb is watcred BY The many rivers en-.
ierng The Black Sea, is ravagrd by dcsolating
war and all that the people OF thai vast and
rich country has for years sent abroad. and 10
England, especially, will find for IFS diminish.
ed production consumers at home. Already
are these considerations pressing on the Eng.
lish wheat and four market, and keep up HE
prices even aitet u gOou crop, winch baS heen
secured in most admirable condition. Wheat
sells now at rather higher prices than il did
one year ago, and our own country can now
but insutiicicntly supply either England or
France. But let our people make less tobac-
co and less cotton the next year and the year
after, tell you, and your millions of wealth
will be drawn hence to us, ii for these now
staple articles, articles of corn, wheat and
provisions be substituted. Clear up our
lands, and put the utmost breadth of them ~
everything necessary for the food Of man;aR,l
every particle that is produced will find an
admirable market th" next year. True, our
" heat crop is already in the ground and its
quantity cannot now be increased. Blu, orr
rorn crop may--and that is an article which
vii! pay much better next year than either
tobacco or cotton.
