Financial Prospects.

CHICAGO, October .2.-In Chicago to-
day the feeling in banking, mercantile
and commercial houses is even better
than it was yesterday. The general
DRIFT OF things is decidedly favorable and
symptoms of the speedy restoration OF
public confidence are everywhere un-
mistakable. If the improvements and
general situation continues as 1t has
progressed during the last three days,
Chicago and the Northwest will very
soon be out OF the woods. The course
OF the merchants and capitalists in
coming earnestly to the support OF the
banks is having an excellent effect.
Everything is quiet in bank circles:
The large amount OF currency received
during the week seems to have had a
most reviving effect upon financial mat
ters and upon business generally, so
that it is SAFE to presume that we are
fast recovering our position OF prosperity.
Railroads and Lake vessels report
very marked increase in the amount OF
freight moving In the Chicago live
stock market trade ia again gradually
reyiving upder the improving condition
OF financial affairs. On Change the
feeling continues 10 be one OF
increased buoyaucy. The advance
in prices in grain Yesterday IS
sustained to-day. There is cur
rency enough for the transaction
OF all legitimate business. TeIegraphic
advicea from various parts OF this State
and the West generally indicate pro-
nounced improvement in financial
circles and no fears are manifested OF
Any further trouble.
Laborers Discharged.
