tradesmen Of the country are beginning to
understand more fully han they have ever
done before, that there is no real prosperity
in a business that is continually liable to
extreme ups and downs according as the
speculative current may run, and which is
regulated by the amount of bank credit that
operators can command, and there is a grow
ing purpose to retufas by as directs route
as possible, as nearly as may be to a normal
condition. These men reason for the future
as well as for the present, and see in the
large addition to the productive force of the
nation, released too late by the war to have
any influence, except as consumers, upon
the present, but whose presence will be felt
heNeafter, a power that must inevitable
work a new order of things. And they an

discount demand being quite moderate, and

condition considerably improved and quite
satisfactory in this quarter. In Eastern Ex-
change, however, we have still to report a

prevailing rates are par buying, and selling
at lilo premium to regular dealers.
Gold continues on the upward course, but
the advance movement is slow. The price

TIE T~RAvELER's REooRD.-We have re-
ceived, through their agents in this city,
Messrs. Thayer and Nunsen, Park Building,
a copy of The TrGvcler's Record, published
in Hartford, Conn, by the Travellers In
surance Company. 1t is a neatly gotten up
eight page paper, and, while devoted to the
interests of the Company and an exponent
of their principles, business and general
status, it embraces a good selection of gen
eral II ews and literary items. There can be
no doubt that this is the best, safest, most
reliable insurance company ever incorpo-
rated for the purpose of effscting insurance
against accidents of every description. 1t
has been in successful operation since April
Ist 1854, and up to November LIST, 1865, had
issued upward of 10000 policies and paid
over 600 losses, including the large sum of
$4,000 to fourteen policy holders within the
year, for $249 received in premiums.
We would call particular attention to the
adyer tisements of the company in this pub
lication. Three pages are devoted to an ex-
hibit, with particulars of names, address,
accident, date, and amounts of premium
and losses paid. Among the names we OBJ
served the names of several from our neigh
borhoOd- For example: "Chief Engineer of
steamer Pewabic, insured under General
Accident Policy No. 1925, lost on Lake
Huron, August 9th, 1865: premium $50;
loss paid, $4,000.
This company is bound to win, for it ac-
companies everywhere this locomotive peo-
pie of ours. Send for a paper, or apply to
the agents named above, read and satisfy
yourselves aa- r-s

A Remedy for the PiIes.-It is a blessing
to the suffering to know that we have an efeotua
cure for this truly troublesome disease. Mr.. J. P.
HazArde, of 1874 Second street, Cincinnati, Ohio,
takes great pleasure in informing all who are suf-
fering with piles, that he used a small quantity Of
DR.. Strickland's Pile Remedy, and it effected a per-
manent cure. This seems to be the case with all
who make use of this splendid preparation. 1t is
manufactured At 90 St-Aa., ciAoinS
