UNNECESSARY YGRuMBLINe-ASo Southern jour
nal, commenting upon a class who have
pleu o eat, drink AID wear, AID no liabil-
ines in ary way embarrassing, who yet
croak in the most forlorn manner, and sigh
plainively for better times, tells the follow
ing opposite anecdo'e:
"Tracy's slave 'Pomp,' in this town,
many years ago, not content to draw WINE
from his masters pipe by The usual way,
took the head out OF the cask, and as he
stood dipping up the sparkling beverage,
and drinking from silver goblet, gave the
sentiment-'Here is TO better times.' His
master happening in at thar moment, struck
him on the side of the head, Telling him TO
the floor, saying, you black rascal you, ]
will teach you that times are good enough
when you can drink the best of wine from
silver cups, without wishing for better"

cause it is announcement and difficult 10 get
money, put off all their domestic bills as
long as they possibly can. If these persons
would only pu, themselvest to one hundredih
part of the Inconvenience TO pay these, that
they do to prevent note from being pro-
tested, they would easily accomplish it,
And if they would only 60 round and pay
up every small and domestic debt they have
in the world and keep no more accounts,
but pay as they go, it would give such an
impetus to the retail trade, as to create a
demand for goods a, remunerative prices,
and put money in circulation in all branches
of business. If no more such accounts
were opened, it would make this whole
crash end in grea, blessing 10 all, and but
little inconvenience to any.
Every honest and honorable man has 60,
to pay, and expects 10 pay, and has no
doubt that he will pay all these debts some
day. Let him do so noac. For him 10 wait
until times get easier, is leaving the man
who has trusted him 10 struggle on through
his difficulty without the aid to which he
was entitled. and if he survives, 10 help
him when it is of no use. There never
will be easier times with such. So far The
cash has only been for large sums and not
for small. This is all that it is at present.
But it must begin and continue TO pinch
tighter and tighter upon small sums for
even the largest men, unless averted by
such restoration of healthy trade as that Of
which we speak. The man who puts off
the milk bill. and the grocery bill, because
il will be eastern month or two, is The
man 10 whom it will then be far harder. In
fact he is jusi the man that will be very apt
not 10 pay at all.
But he who will now begin thus aRd al
ways buy his household goods with ready
money, it will not only take world of care
and shame off his mind though he should
fail for a million hereafter, but he will get
through all Ills expenses alta much less cost.
then act as break upon the cable of his
personal expenditures, and prevent it run
ming out too fast, while what he does get
will be obtained for far less. '-.---
We see that in New York the largest
wholesale houses are now seeking the re-
tail cash trade, 10 catch the first breeze Of
restored business. Of course these houses
can afford to sell cheaper without loss. This
will at least start business again on the
ready money basis, the only thing to put
money in circulation or restore credit.-Led.
