The Cincinnati Commercial says:
Trade, in 4 general way, ia stagnant.
Some advance the theory mat it is SO be-
cause OF the uncertainty attending the pros
pective financial measures Of the Govern
meat. Practically, this means an absence
Of that speculative spirit which, 4 is hoped
may be awakened IL measures Of contrac-
tion are not undertaken and steadily en-
forced. i is spparent that the business
world contemplstes a vigorous contraction
with no satisfaction or patience, and this
feeling, literally Interpreted, means that
none at all is desired. Fine-spun theories
Of how il may be bought about safely and
comfortably are abundant, but it is not
probable that one Of them would be Of the
least use in practice. Actual progress to-
ward a specie basis viii not be popular il il
involves, OF is identical with, a crsmping OF
business. II consequently is not Likely 10 be
at all acceptable, and though not confessing
il, the mass o. business men do, by he
actual logic Of their position in the matter,
prefer 70 reach the point By q commercial
revulsion Of their wi bringing about by
ovsrrading and a prostitutIou Of credit.
Consequently, those who have the admins
tration Of the fnsneisl affairs Of the Gov
would be doing nearest right il
they are gu dcd merely By what would be
best for the credit Of the Government, and
omit much consideration for other matters.
To be sure, consideration Tor the credit Of
the Government covers all the points in the
business interests of the couBtrgi but il is
taken from a standpoint different from
that which the merchant occupies, and has
in view more than mere temporary OF inoi-
vidual interests, and doing best for the coun-
", must. m he end, be dong bess tor IN
dIviduals.
