Our FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL PROSPECTS,
BREAKERS AHEAD In another part of to days
HERALD will be found a carefully prepared and
well digested review of the past and present
financial and commercial condition of the coun-
try. In it the various financial revulsions that
have swept over the United States at regular in
tervals, from 1914 to 1857, are traced to their
causes, and we are enabled 10 draw a parallel
between the condition of things that preceded
and brought about those revulsions, and that
which we see now existing in our centres Of
commerce and finance If like causes produce
like effects, then it appears almost Inevitable
that we are fast drifting down into the whirlpool
Of another financial crisis. At all events, We
present to our readers the facts as they stand,
and leave them to draw their differences there
from.
As all our commercial revulsions have been
preceded by period Of wild speculation, 90
we find that within the last couple of months
the Stock Exchange has been marked by q ra-
pid rise Of all classes of railroad securities.
Railroad stocks that are absolutely valueless
as investments have, without any appreciate
cause, run up from ten to twenty per cent
above the figures at which they ruled
in the beginning of the summer. The sole
basis for this rapid rise in railroad securities
was the very unsubstantial one of estimated
short crops in England and prosperous har-
vest at the West. 1t was calculated that this
would give rise to very large freight traffic,
and there is no doubt that such is and will be
the case. But of what real advantage to the
stockholders is an increase Of traffic, when we
all know that the railroads are irredeemsbly
encountered, and that all the profits are hardly
adequate to pay up the interest on their bonds,
much less diminish the amount Of their indebt-
edness? And yet we see spectators dealing In
these valueless railroad stocks, and rushing
them up to figures which they will never be
worth.
As to the operations of the banks and of i'm
porters, they are of a character to arouse ap-
prehension. The banks of this city have &C
tually at the present time larger amount of
loans out than they had in the inflated period
Immediately preceding the crash of 1857. On
the 4th of August of that year the loans were
sI20,597 $50, and on the 18th of the present
month the loans were sl29, s55, 179-an increase
of nearly ten millions of dollars This accounts
to some extent for the wild speculation on the
Stock Exchange, as it does also for the large
foreign importations into this port. In view Of
these indications, prudent men will trim their
sails and look out for breakers.

their three Sees into one the one of course to

1t is plain that this peaceable people would
not have thus compromised themselves had they
not been instigated and sustained by Russia on
the one hand, and by the representatives of Pro-
testantism on the other. Means are nothing in
the estimation of rulers, provided the end seems
attaiuable. The outpouring of innocent blood

country with her soldiers, ii follows that Russia

ton to the Greeks and Armenians of CONSTANT

Verify, the Eastern Question is becoming
more and more difficult of solution, for, between
