BUSINESS Losses DURING THE PAST YEAR.
From tho reports Of the mercantile agencies
it appears that there were fewer failures in
business in the Northern States during the
year 1862 than in any year since 1890. The
following table shows tho losses Of 1861 and
Of 1862, compared
Number. Liabilities
Failures in 1861 5,935 $17S GS2 10
Failures in 1862 1862 23.649. 030
On this the New York World remarks :
As all business has been done for cash
there have been no bad debts. SO far as
commercial transactions are concerned, all
has been SO far smooth sailing. There are
squalls ahead, however, and prudent men
are taking in sail. The time will come when
prices will lal! as urinterruptedly as they
have advanced, and then woe to the dealers
who have large stocks on hand Some tim"
or other we must return to specie basis,
and when we do the bubble of high prices
will burst.
