Il is said that one of the most active men of
Elder knapp's fremont temple meetings went
10 tie door where Hatch was distributing his
tracts the other day, and in loud tone of voice
said 20 him: "Sir, You are going straight to
hell CHESS not" replied Hatch; 81 think
you must be mistaken in your man." "No, |
am not, he replied; "B0lt are the Cery man.
and the devil has rot a rcd-hot armchair in hell
waiting for you" SIS it possible" exclaimed
Hatch, land are you sure il is an armchair|
he added, because am particularly partial to
arn-chairs, and if must go to hell and sit in a
rcd-hut chair, then by all means let it be an arm
chair This ended the conversation, when
Hatch again went 10 work throwing tracts into
the passing throng of mortals who had not been
born again.
According to the Commercial Bulletin, Pearl
street presented quite busneSs-ike appearance
last week. The arrival OF a large number Of
southern and western BUYERS Of boots and shoes
ami the large number OF teams transporting
thi, merchandise to the various shipping points,
are evidence that the business in this line is i'm
proving. The products of New England indus
try are rs much sought for now as formerly,
and boots and shoes are among the indiSpenSa-
bCs. The shipments last week exceed those of
the preceding week 24lO cases, and though many
of the larger buyers have finished up their bust
ness and are returning home, the smaller ones
from the south are beginning 10 come in, and
thus the ball is kept in motion. In children's
goods there is a fair trade though colored work
for ladies and misses is not as much sought for
as last season, and croquets are taking the pre-
ference in slippers. Manufacturers are general
~ busy, and the trade are hopeful that a good
average years work will be the final result
The sugar rctineries in Boston, with hut few
exceptions are now running on full time, and
turning out on an average about 1900 barrels
per day against 800 barrels during December.
The supply is equal to the demand and the
country traders, who worked their stocks down
To lower point than was ever known before
the reduction III the tariff rates went into effect,
are now buying quite freely, and in some in-
stances anticipating their wants. The new crop
sugars have begun to arrive from Cuba, and
several Cargoes have already been discharged.
Though the season is about a month late, there
is good prospect for an average crop. Within
the past week or ten days there has been de-
cline in raw sugars fairly prOportionate to the
reduced duties; and while during the early stages
OF the reduction importers got the benefit on ac-
count Of scarcity, the lower ruling Of the raw
article now gives the consumer the benefit, re-
fined sugars selling about one cent lower than
year ago.
A yearly business of upwards of $500 900 is

heiing, there being five or six firms engaged in
the business This betting is made for machine
ry and finds market in all sections of the
country where manufacturing is done, much of
it going TO California. Heavy oak slaughter
leather enters the most extensively into con-
sumption for this purpose, large quantities being
annually used. 1t is cut up into all sizes, vary
ing from one inch to thirty inches in width.
Within the past ten years this business has
greatly increased, and there is now great COM
hpfitipn al the which with m
featuring business generally quiet, finds the
market now well supplied the demand not be
ing equal to it. Many manufacturers are max
ing betting from chemical tanned leather, which
makes Il great saving in time, and consequently
in expense; though as a matter of economy
etfecung durability, ETC., there is a diversity 0
opinion. With revival Of manufacturing an(
the machinery, so long motonless, again il
running order, dealers are anticipating n gOOt
demand, both for new work and repairs.
The Boston Commercial Bulletin says; "Th(
shoe finding business, embracing the different
varieties Of boot and shoe manufacturers goods
has generally been considered a small business
and not important enough to lie caSsed amongst
extensive branches OF industry. Ii is, however
a very large and important business. Few are
probably aware to what extent those goods are
sold and used, or how much capital is invested
in il. Ii is even said to rival the leather and
shoe business. Ii includes every article used in
the manufacture OF boots and shoes, excepting
leather, and some large houses keep a full as
sOrtment Of this. There are some forty large
houses engaged in the finding business in this
city, who represent capital of at least 81 900.
