Prices-the Level not yet Arrived
at-tlfe course Of PaniCs.

We notice no important change In pri-
ces. Prices Of staple articles are not yet
on level; that is, all have not come down
to a just proportion with wheat. The ten
dency is rapidly in the direction Of level,
and that level will be reached by spring,
when everything will jump as in mo-
nent into the same channel There will
then be no use in hol ling il p for high
err market. The merchant will then see
that to held up his merchandise to profits
corresponding with the cost of year ago,
will be to turn all his business into the
hands Of those who purchase stocks under
the new dispansation, and consequently
sell at a third less. There must be sacrifices,
however stubborn men may be. The lev
lei must be reached, then dwelt upon tor
while; and then things will begin to 60 up
again. Such is the due course of every
panic the world ever saw, AMI all the rea-
~oning Of men and powers of government
can't change it.

minds Of many persons, a prejudice exists a.

why should this prevent you 7esortng to an ar

Physicians prescribe It, Why should you s.

Why should you reject it? Clergymen and

MININe-NEw Discoveries, THE EFFECT.

MINING DISCOVERIES, THE EFFECT.
We continue to hear of new an | valtla-
bic mineral discoveries in every mining Vi
Icinity of Grant, Iowa au4 Lafayette coun-
ties. On every hand, farmers, mechanics,
Iclerks-evcn professional men, are resort
ing to the mine for. money. We cannot
just now say what the effect viii be- though
we are sure of one thing: that if all the
men in the mining region were to go to
mining, the effect would not be to bring
down the price Of lead. The lead market
Is not governed by the Wisconsin mines
The commercial effect can only be to cut
off the importation of lead from Europe
the price remaining as if the importa-
ton had continued. Of this we are sure,
that so soon as the money is furnished to
smelters to buy up what mineral is now on
the ground, the precious article of money
will be more abundant in the lead region
than ever 1t was at any former time. 1t may
require some time to distribute the money
and get it into circulation among the peo
pie; but circulate it will, for there
is 10 other use for it. Money is Just like
IEquor and tobacco, it will go where most
wanted-this difference however,th that whis-
key and tobacco often go where they do
the INST harm. Galena ought to supply
IA lead market for our smelters-that BEING
the natural lead depot of The Wisconsin
mines. Rather, ought there to be several
markets at Galena for the game PLAYED By
lby Mr.. Corwith in first securing a total
control of the market and then deserinv
the business for other speeulations, tran
sient but more profitable, ought to be a
warning ever after against allowing any
one man to govern SO vast trade as the
'eaa interest," amounting to probably two
millions of dollars year.
