SOLVING FINANCIAL PROBLEMS. Ono of
the most curious phases Of the present financial
embarrassment is the diversity OF opinion which
exists as to the proper remedy for the none
tary malady. Questions of finance invariably
call forth a display of arithmetic and political
economy sufficient to overwhelm the uniuitiat-
ed mind with awe and confusion. There is
hardly any subject so prolific of discussion and
wars of words as this. Every man in the coun-
try, Immediately the question is mooted, is
filled with the insane idea that it is his special
mission to enighten the ignorance of the COM
munity and the world at large on the yexed
subject of finance. Every pot-house politician
finds it necessary to ventate his ignorance on
the subject, and inform the country what he
knows about finance. Every country editor is
IN his own opiniona second Adam Smith, and
every Congressman, In his own conceit, a fnan-
qal oracle. !. For the multitude of counselors
there is wisdom, we are told in Holy Writ.
Let us hope that 1t will prove so in our case,
and that those to whose guidance we commit
ourselves may not turn out blind leaders of the
blind. Lynch. Nears.

Speaking of business prospects, the baItl-
more Sun says: From various quarters 1t Is
admitted that somewhat better prospect was
presented at the close of the past week 10 hnan-
cial, business and industrial circles. While
there has been a natural collapse OF some ex-
tended coucerus in connection with railroads
building far in advance Of time, and also cur
tailmeut Of industries, some of which were de-
pendent upon enterprises too greatly expand
ed it is yet believed that the suspensions OF
labor have not been so great as represented III
many quarters. 1t is kuown also that there
are various instances where distribution and re-
sumption of labor have been effected to more
or less extent, and the same thing IS likely to
be experienced in still further degree, as con-
fdeuce, which naturally follows the weeclng
out of the unreal, gradually returns to the com-
munitY."
