OOO The probability is that the creditors of these
failures have not received, average, more than
25 per cent of their claims, which involves loss of
about $40, 100000 This immense amount, lost by a
class of merchants engaged principally the dry goods
trade, hardly give idea of the losses by failures
among all classes The dry goods merchants, as
class, are the most extravagant in this city and
throughout the country, and there are more failures
among them, a class, than any other. The losses
among them do not form, however, the bulk of the
aggregate losses of the country by bankruptcy OF
failure. II is very extraordinary fact that most Of
the new enterprises of the country fail in first hands
that the orignators of almost every new project are
losers by it, and that it is only after numerous
changes, and the acquisition of more knowledge and
experience, that the best of them prove productive
and successful. Unfortunately, the losses fall mos
heavily upon the most enterprising men of the day
