You know that the tunnel is Sliptical and

tR- The London Economist says "What-
ever may be the turbulence of some classes
of Hndoos, and the Incidence Of Others, it is
certain that there are in India persevering and
industrious aborers. Within the last twenty
years the amount of the products of other
countries consumed in India has increased
from twenty million to eighty-fve million
dollars, and her native productions have more
than kept pace with ii. Every nation which
trades with her becomes her debtor. In 1886
the surplus produce of India was $4,000
900; in 1855 it exceeded $l25,oO0,O0O. Last
year the balance due India for the excess OF
the exports overihe imports was Sal, 100000,
The specie importations, which may be re-
garded as sure indication Of the balance Of
trade, have increased from $l4,O00,0O0 in
1916 to 100000 in 1856. Such statistics
show that there is progressive industry in
India, which the present mutiny must affect
disastrously."

The DISTRESS IN THE NORTHERN Cities
A Washington correspondent of the Charles.
ton Mercury writes:
"Bread"-wil be demanded by the slower
ten" of all our large cities. The demand
must be complied with. II will be impera-
tive. The moneyed men have played their
game. While playing their game, the have
permitted the moneyless men TO play theirs
The moneyless men have played in very
wantonness. The indications of prosperity
were everywhere, and the moneyless men
said, Let us eat, drink, and be merry
The moneyed men said, "Let them; amuse
them while we play our game" Now the
moneyless men will presume upon that
license. They have nothing to lose, and
they will lose it. They have held sway over
our cities when the moneyed men were
strong, and they will not resign II when the
moneyed men are weak. The mob is King
and the mob will reign. "Ilow long, oh
Lord! how long!" We know not, but il
will be until adversely shall have chastened
us all. 1t is a bad state of things, when
neither the upper nor the lower ten has any
confidence in the rest of society-when the
upper ten are cheats, and the lower ten are
ruffians. And this is the order of society
in tho cities of the North.
Not the universal ordsr. There are many
who do not assent to it. Ii is the order with
the upper ten and the lower ten; but the
immediate ten.times. ten dissent. The inter
mediates, however, are, in general, nobod'
les. The upper ten and the lower ten alone
are energetic and active, while the interme
dates have not the courage and enterprise
to oppose either. They are the dull ass thai
will not mend his pace with beating. They
must be starved into an apprehension Of the
evils surrounding them. The capital upon
which credit is passed away, and so credit
must pass away. There is no longer conf
dence; there will no longer be credit.

| RETREEcHMENr AND ExTRAvAGAscE.-
The New York Weekly Dispatch gives the
following sensible remarks upon these sub
jects
sin conjunction with the retrenchment
cry is another upon the subject of extrava.
ganse. What is extra' agance! The mlser
will answer that il is to buy that which can
be dispensed with. Suppose everybody
were TO dress as plainly as protection from
the weather and decent appearance would
warrant-that we all depended upon the
town clocks for knowledge of the time,
fastened our shirt fronts together with brass
| pins, aud ate cracked corn and cheap pork
only-what would become of one half of
the population of this city? Extravaganza
consists, perhaps, of lighting cigars with
$40 bank notes, and indulging in luxuries
that cannot be honorably paid for; but if
lady have thousand dollars in her purse,
| knowing when that is gone, another thousand
will, in reasonable time, take its place, it
is not extravagant for her to purchase hun
bred dollar shawl, hundred dollar dress
| pattern, or -a-diamond brooch worth five hun
Adred dollars. These are expensive tastes,
but upon their liberal qualification depends
the happiness-nay, the very food-of count
less industrious artisans and their families
The costly bonnets about which we hear so
much pupit-raving, keep myriades of poor
girls from descending to positions worse
than those occupied by the worshipers of
Juggernnn.. Let, then, all who can afford it
spend their money in the qualification of
creditabe tastes, for what is termed extrava-
gance by parties who squander millions upon
the expectation of tracts and Bibles, is one
of the strongest Of the ties by which the
rich and the poor of great cities are bound
together in comfort and amity."
