The Career OF Burlingame


History furnishes no parallel 70 the
experience of Mr.. Burlingame during
the last decade, and we shall have to
turn to the Arabian Nights to match it.
Writers on the possibilities open to
American ambition have often cited the.
app earance of Franklin in his plain suit
serene in his simplicity, at the glitter
ing court of Versailles. But there was
nothing in the history of that shrewd,
lucky Boston boy of the last century to
compare in romance and bizarre spien-
dor with the life of the cool, easy, self
poised young man of our own day. who,
losing his seat in Congress by the vote
of our North End wards, presently found
himself the representative of the Oldest
and greatest of nations, accredited to
the courts Of the world, travelling in a
styl of imperial magnificence through
his own country and through Europe,
receiving the courtesy of Kings and EN-
perors, coping with the widest Of veter-
an diplomates, and speaking for the
first time after scores of centuries of ST.
lence the voice of China. Perhaps there
was no man living whose death could
have in its possible consequence graz
yer influence on the destiny of millions
OF them.

Shrinkaqe in Prices.

Nearly all kinds of commodities have
undergone a marked decline during the
last few months, more particularly
since the September gold panic. Cot
ton has fallen two or three cents per
pound, Pork seven or eight dollars per
barrel, Bread Stuff's to lower point
than for many years, while nearly every
other staple is materially cheaper than
one year ago. Tire effect of onr vicious
monetary system, for several years after
its adoption, was not only to raise the
nominal scale of value proportionateiy
with the depreciation of the currency,
but to infuse business with q specuia-
tive spirit, precisely adapted TO stimu-
late prices considerably above the point
at which merely nominal increase would
have rested, But an ultimate reaction
from this fevelish state of things set in,
after it became apparent that steady
decline of the gold premium was irevi-
table, or wlrat amounts to the same
thing, when a marked appreciation in
commercial quality and purchasing
power Of the currency was assured The
effect Of this reactionary movement is q
pause, hesitation and duiness in all de-
partrnents Of trade. There is at present
conspicuous lack of one essential ele-
ment Of commercial stabiHity-confi>
dence The mercantile classes NAV
for the time being be likened to tire ma
riner at sea without chart or compass.
They do not FUZZY understand the COM
mercial bearings, and are, therefore,
moving with extreme caution But this
state of affairs, although entaiiing many
hardsh;ps upon the trading classes, has
it's impending compensaticns, which
should go far towards the rnitig alton of
present evils. The shrinkage in prices
must anon lead TO renewed confidence,
and free distributation of com IA ODDITIES.
With diminished cost of living, dimin.

much Of the enterprise that has been oc-
cupied with gambling upon the vicissi>
tudes of an unhealthy and spasmodic
money market will be again turned into
productive channels The gap between
the~c currency and g'fd has become SO
narrow, that is safe to say that most of
the difficulties Of return &c specie pay
ments have already been overcome, and
with conservative action on the part of
: Congress, there is no doxbt the goal
could be reached without greater
shock to commercial Interests than has
already been sustained. But those who
are carrying large stocks of high cost
goods; think 1T for their interest for gold
to react and it is not improbable, where
SO many vast Interests are at stake, that
it will react. In that event. the trials
