OUR con- MERCIAI INTERESTS.

The close of season of unprece.
dented business stagnancy and torpidity
is, perhaps, the fttest occasion for look
ing about and reviewing the commercial
situation, present and prospective. Such
a season is about closing with the bust
ness men Of Memphis, and it behooves
them at this time to survey the rough
grounds over which they have passed
and those which are still before them I;
to trace, if possible, disastrous effects to
legitimate causes, and cut off and dam up
for all time the channels through which
The evil has flowed. The dullness and
unproftableness Of the season should,
by no means, paralyze or deaden the
energies Of the business man, or awaken
undue alarm aud misgivings as to the
future. On the other hand, il should
arouse each and every one to the i'm
portance Of expanding our commerce,
and. placing it upon a broader more
secure and permanent basis. The ex-
perience of the past dictates more thor
ough and judicious operating; it should,
by no means, however, tend to restrict
future trade by reducing it to system
Of timidity and over. caution. No mani.
festation of letharey or indifference
should appear wherever the real
interests OF the market are in
volved By a considerate, judicious
and united effort, the trade Of Memphis
should be expanded and invigorated,
broader area of country opened up. and
every facility instituted for the fullest
development Of the great natural re-
sources by which we are surrounded. At
no time in our history as a city have our
formidable rivals-St Louis, Cinein.
matt and Louisville-put forward such
efforts to infringe upon our commerce,
by acknowledging our market by rail.

the rich and fruitful adjacent sections
