that one purpose bent, which covers many-

We do not propose to ask the masculine read
ers attention, for IN instant, to the question. OF
COURSE the man who goes patiently shopping uli
day with lis wife or sister, has not vet declared
| himself for ave OF the vigorous hunt Of Darnum
md Colonel Wood; but there il view Of the
case which is Of general interest, and it is that
taken as M Indication, our " shopping" tokens
Of the present spring are welcome signs to more
than the merchants.
And in this view. The trade witt! the Wholesale
house and the jobbcr is simply speculative and
prospective. 1t NAV in the event of d poor crop
prove deceptive: The " shoppers" on the con-
! trary come from the homes Of the people to ex-
press and answer present wants. The saes are
mostly for ready money, and titus to Il far better
dcgree Of exaetncss than any other represent
thc domestic excfle4usr Of thu several l'onse-
holds.
In this respect, rs "c have said, the present
spring gives gratifying token Of better times.
