AlIttIe economy.

The earth was never at this season Of autumn
covered with richer are more beautiful carpet OF
green The crops are said TO be the greatest that
ever waited TO be gathered TO the garners and all
nature seems to smile upon cur people and invite
them t. rejoice in the happiness that should sur
round them. The trouble that has befallen the
rch tnficer in money need not necessarily reach
the hearth of the industrious and frugal. True
spme little embarrassment may be produced by the
arrangement of the circulating medium. But this
can only last few weeks; and viii then doubtless
be forgotten except by lew. In the mean time
JUST LITTLE ECONOMY in some particular indnl-
gence may serve to make all things even and be
beneficial perhaps to both mind and body, There
is nothing that should discourage the industrious
aud prudent Choeriulness and not dependency
should characterize the conduct of every citizen;
and especially those who have escaped actual loss
by unfortunate investments.

seasonabIo Advice.

The Philadelphia CITY Rem, gives the following
good advice to Its readers, which may be arTlica-
BILE here as well as Ia that great city:
Go TO WoRK -tiood hiend, go to work In
earnest Labor diligently. Put your sign IN all
the papers.
Business has been very great and ii is constantly
increasing. The products of agriculture have
been prolific. Our exports have exceeded our inn
ports for the first time ln series of years Traffic
of all Kinds has been prosperous aud lucrative
The products of the forest have risen TO such
vast proportions that The lumber trade claims 10
be leading interest. Farmers, rolllng-mills,
factories, grist-mills, forges, workshops aud all
other industrial Investments have multiplied on
an immense scale, and the faith OF Philadelphia
IN tlese has ever been so great that our invest
ments are immense and our profits corresponding,
As the banking institutions are based on these,
their credit must be sound. Aud so the trial has
shown. While there has been constant euspi
cion for long time OF an unwholesome condition
OF things, and people have pointed TO trade as
not yielding an adequate profit, 1t now turns oui
that all productive classes Of business have been
sound and prosperous and that the banks that re-
lied upon these classes are safe.
This test is worth something in business point
OF view, inasmuch as IL proves that merch lndis-
ing does pay well after all, and that industria!
movements are equally profitable.

The NORTHERN PACIFIC r. R.-WILL 1T BIZ
ABANDONED f-The Chicago Tribune takes the
ground that 1t must not be given up. 1t the bond
their property is absolutely valueless. That por-
tion of the main line already completed will not
pay operating expenses, even conceding that the
branch roads that have been bought by the North
eTn Pacific may be operated at profit. II the
road as it stands cannot earn enough to pay ex-
penses Of course the interest ON the bonds will
not sbespaid. 1t has been paid heretofore only by
the sale of ncw bonds. This resource has been
cut of, or Messsrs. Jay Cooke g. Co. would not
have suspended. 1t the interest on the bonds is
not TO be paid then the bonds absolutely worth
less so long the road is in its present condition
What is the prospect that the bondholders will
complete the roadH 1t could only be done at all
by concentration of interests, and the bonds
have been scattered ABOUT as were never railroad
bonds tefore. 1t is impossible as yet to saw where
they have been placed or what amount has been
sold.

EFFECTS OF MlscuIEyoUs LBGIsLATIoN.-That
temperate and non-paTtisan commercial journal,
the New Ierk Bulletin, is OF opinion tnat the ex-
isting embaTrassments may be traced largely to
Congress and the federal government. BY un-
wise grants of lands to railroads it has stimulated
into existance new roads where they were not
needed and beyond the means OF the country to
provide for the expenditure their construction re-
quired 1t has raised, by excessive taxation, rev.
enues iar beyond the requirements Of government,
and allowed them to remain In the public tressu-
~, commerce and industry being thus deprived of
the g3ld the legal tenders and national bank notes
needed for the daily payments of tie community.

lures Of the government, as well as taxation TO
meet them, should be reduced TO the lowest posi-
sible limit

Views OF the SituatIon-Dangers 10
the U. S. Treasury AppEehended

The New York Times of yesterday, discuss.
ing the situation says: Specifically the financial
crisis sceemed TO have abated yesterday, and be-
cause there was u failures maRy people supposed
the panic was over. The Government, however.
Is doubtless better informed. II must know for
instance that the crops have suddenly been check
ed IN their progress that gram already here can
not be shipped; that foreign exchange is almost
extinct, and thar We are grAduslly getting back
10 the primitive system of barter. We are no
alaTmists, but it IS impossible TO be blind TO what
Is now going on. We venture 10 suggest 10 the
Secretary OF the Treasury the propTiety Of once
more considering two OF the least Questionable
measures which have been pressed upon the Gov
ernment. The payment OF 1874 bonds due next
January, which wlil relieve about eight millions
OF greenbaeks, and the purchase of sterling bills OF
exchange 10 the amount of at least IS 600 600
The latter device would rescue export trade from
ats present deadlock ahd set exports free again.
Neither OF these measures 30 lar we are aware
would be In conformation OF the law. They are
both urged by the most experienced and couser-
YattVe OF our merchants and bankers, aud there
fore ought not 10 be dismissed without most thor
Ongh consideration on the part ofthe Government
The Tribune Of the same date, takes a different
view of the situation, and argues that the Secre-
tsry OF the Treasury did not stop the Bond pur.
chases moment TOO soon. The money he paid
out was not enough to satisfy the wishes Of infa-
tIonists and speculators while IT was too mach 10

The Policy OF THE BANKs.-The Banks OF
Wilmington arc pursuing their usual course and
furnishing tuch currency as their depositors and
C lstomers need. The Banks of New York are
said not 10 be paying out much currency. The
Philadelphia banks are acting more literally:
while the fear of losing too much of their circula-
ling medium has influenced the banks of Balti
more and some other cities to limit in many cases,
the payment OF currency on check to $780, Aud
this is said to be done in Philadelphia also. But
all the Banks prefer 10 mark "good" the cheeks of
depositors for large amounts.

their opinion that it would not be good stroke
of public policy to fund the six per cent. United
States bonds into five per cent. bonds in the
present state of the money market They also
give il as tbsir opinion that it is not wise to
effect loan by "syndicGte" as that takes it
out of the hands of small investors and con-
centrates the bonds in the great commercial
centres where they exert an influence for the
Autustion of values in the money market.

~ New York city under Republican rule
is beginning the practice ofcivil service reform
in very telling manner. Gen. Dix, in his
message to the legislature, recommends that
the salaries of the city officials be reduced, in
most instances of fixed salaries, about one-half,
and that where offices pay fees their incomes
shall be paid into the treasury and the officers
paid fixed salaries, The Republican Central
Committe, in keeping with these wise recon-
mendations, has drafted new charter for the
city, which cuts down the salaries of the De-
partments of the city Government from $780,
900 10 sllO,O00-more than one-half. Would
it not be well to take the sensible suggestion of
"J. H." made some time ago in the Journal, and
begin this sort Of civil service reform in Balti
