ahead of the rise in gold Up to last
April the spectators operated chiefly in
stocks; since then they have been tam
pering with the necessaries of life, and
the sales of stock are now less than half
as much in amount weekly as they were
in the first three months of the year.
The spectators have emigrated from
Wall street to Front street, and the peo.
pie feel the heavy hand at their tables
and everywhere else. Speculation has
touched at length all the commonest nec-
essaries of life, and spectators are max
ing sudden fortunes out of the miseries of
the people.
Almost the whole rise has occurred
since the beginning of April. Previous
to that time the appreciation of general
prices averaged only 81 l-2 per cent upon
ordinary rates before the war, and the
premium on gold was bot 50. Since the
first of April general prices have advanc-
ed l55 per cent, and are nov 225 per
cent above normal rates. while the premi.
um on gold is but ITO to $50. The in
crease of wholesale prices in New York of
s?me articles of common consumption is
given by the Commercial as follows-the
|
first price being that of January I'd, 1862.
the second that of July 8th, 1861. Rice
has gone up from 5 to l3 "a cts per lb.
Rio coffee from Is IL to As; Cuba sugar,
s to %; superfne N. Y. -four, $3.50 to
$ll; New Orleans molasses, SO to $l,l5
prime mess pork, $3.50 to Al so; lard, 7
to 20 II; cotton sheeting l6 to70. The
Commercial remarks:- L.....r-
"To the question, how long will this
speculative movement continue? let the
exorbitant prices it has created be the an
swer.. A contraction in the demand for
commodities and an increase of the sup
ply, must be the result of The present
high prices, issuing in break. down of
the market: to be followed probably by o.
retreat Of the Spectators upon Wall street
which by the present comparatively low
prices of stocks, offers a tempting oppor-
tunity for ''bull" campaign. One result
of these speculative prices is,to prevent
the expectation Of produce, and to neces-
state an increased export of specie which
again causes rise in gold.. Thus, strange
to say, for several weeks past, produce has
been pushing up the price of gold, and
not gold drawing.up the price of produce,
as is generally imagined. g.o aa5l
The question naturally suggests itself
what is the remedy? The answer need
not be long sought for. Decreased con-
sumption until the extraordinary high,
prices have, stimulated the supply. This
will lead to q natural equation and a nor;
NAL adjustment of prices" s."-SyringfeM

FAIRBANKS .ScALEs.--About thirty
five years ago, the Messrs. Fairbanks in
vented and began making platform Scales
which effected complete change in the
manner of doing such business as requires
weighing, and without which it weald be
impossible to do the present immense
amount of business in the country. Since
then they have given their constant per-
senal attention to the, business, making
all such improvements and adding such
notifications as their experience has
shown to be desirable. During this time
many other kinds of scales have been
invented, and more or less tried by the
public, and mainly thrown aside, while
the business of the Messrs. Fairbanks has
steadily increased from year to year, their
scales now standing higher in public esti-
nation, and their sales being very much
larger than ever before. This shows very
strongly the excellence and durability OF
Fairbanks Scales.

The excitement of "the chase" :" has always
been supposed to have healthfnl tendency;
but there is a kind of chase which breaks
down the constitution, debilitates the frame.
and shortens life. We mean the headlong.

tic Of the present day. 1t begets other evils
unnecessary to name) which precipitate the
fate of thousands. There is, however. a pos ,
sibility of recovery from the prostration pro-
duced by these causes, long after their victim
has ceased to hope for it. If we are rightlu
informed, the most astonishing cnres of what
is called general weakness and debility which
have ever been known in this country have
been effected through the agency of Doct or
| Holloway's inestimable remedies. Mere skel-
etons of men, out of whom the very princi-
pie of vitality seemed to have been drained
have been restored to health and vigor by the
operation Of the Pills; and of the Ointment
i'll case of paralysis, rheumatism, &C., we hear
an equally favorable account. If men will
break down their energies by over eNertion-
If, IN their anxiety to "go ahead" they will
override the most precious of Gods blessings
health-it is well they should know how tt
repair the mischief, when they come at las
to realize the fact of their premature decay
