The Balance Of Trade.

Almost every intelligent person Is lamil-
lar with the fact that the United States
are deeply in debt to Europe, perhaps
considerably oyer two thousand millions
of dollars taking all classes Of debt, gov
ernment, State, municipal and corporate
We have been borrowers there for many
years. They hold our notes-our bills
payable-and we pay to England and
Germany an immense amount oi interest
every year. As long as we arc able to
borrow everything goes along swim
mingly. Our safety lies in our good cred
H. No amount OF trouble among our
selves, fires or psnics, shakes the faith ol
the holders Of our securities in the SOL
yency Of the great American nation.
Still, there will come a pay day, not
withstanding our good credit We must
eventually llquidate in some shape or olh'
er. Tho hope is that the balance Of trade
will turn In our favor. That hereafter
We will import little or no iron or
iron wares from Europe. This is an i'm
mense item in our import trade. II this
should turn out 10 be the case, and il at
tho same time our exports Of petroleum,
cotton, tobacco, breadstults and precious
metals should largely increase, we may
hope 10 get so nearly square with our
creditors as TO have nothing to fear from
the maturity Of our obligations.
But In the mean time the balance OF
trade in our favor thus far, about which
we are Just now hearing good deal, Is
pothing to plume ourselves upon very
much as yet. For the year ending the Soth
oil June last 1t was actually against usby q
hundred millions. Just now 1t Is running
in our favor for the time being. And this
will continue so long as the panic lasts and
so long as the price Of our wheat and other
breadstufRs keeps low enough and our im-
portatlons keep down to their present re-
duced standard. We are selling bread
stuff in competition with cheap rivals,
such as Russia and the Mediterranean
countries Of Europe, and we must sell as
low as they do. As long as this Is the case,
and as long as we keep sending of more
than we bring In, and as long as our cred.
itots feel sure as to our debts, so long
we may continue to regard the present
financial situation as an affair among our.
selves, to be fixed up by a resumption Of
greenback payments.

RusINRas.
LEXINGTON, Oct 20.-There is now an
immense crowd at the Phoenix Hotel Of
this city, and the pool sellers are sur.
rounded by crowds OF large purchasers,
who are visitors from every part oi the
Union, ,,who have come here to be present
at the races which are to come of this
week, under the auspices Of the Kentucky
Trotting Horse. Breeders Association.
The question of.selling pools on the track
was this evening brought formally be.
fore the Association for discussion, and
1t was decided that II should be allowed.
The first stephas undoubtedly been taken
in an enterprise which will result in great
benefit not only to the Association, but to
the whole country, and we doubt il any
young enterprise Of the kind has ever
started under more auspicious circum-
stances. The races will last for five days,
from the 2lst to the 26th inst. inclusive.
The track Is now in fine condition, and
magnificent sport Is confidently expected
and will certainly be realized.

TIE PANIo's LEssoN.-The Nononstsl
(London) has an article on the lessons oi
our panic, some points of which are
worth reproducing. The main one Is this,
that the currency in which the banks are
by law required to keep their reserves
and which Is the legal tender, Is a fixed
quantity. II cannot be increased by i'm
portstions from abroad, as gold coin can,
so that as the demands Of the country Tor
currency to transact It's business increase,
as they do year by year, not only do
prices decline, including that Of gold, but
ihe reserves Of the banks become harder
to keep up. Consequently, long as the
volume Of legal tenders remains the same
we are each fall harder pressed for money
ITO move the crops" and the minute this
pressure begins TO make itself ielt on the
banks, they are forced to diminish their
accommodation instead Of increasing II,
in order to keep up their reserves, which
they cannot replenish by drawing on
other countries for gold, as the Bank Of
England does, and which, If they could
afford to keep gold as reserves, they are
forbidden bp the usury laws to obtain BY
raising the rate Of ofipterest, &c the Bank Of
England does. II, on the other hand, the
reserves are allowed to fall very low, the
seeds OF q panic are at once sown. There
arc two ways ont Of the diflculty-one to
keep initiating the currency from year to
wear until 1t would all disappear In q grand
crash In the nature Of national bankrupt
cy, and the other to get what additions
to It we need to enable US to carry on our
business, by bringing into use once more
the currency OF the civilized world-gold
and silver. We mry add that one or two
oil these points were made In an able let
ter In the New York Times the other day,
signed "Knickerbocker."
