THE PAIL TRADE

ton is that after the subsistence of the
panic. the contraction which has taken
place in the value of speculative securities,
and the caution which lenders are almost
certain to exercise. will probably cause
much easier money market than We are ac-
custoined 10 during the Fall, and the addl-
ton to tire volume of currency by recent
in the same direction. Indeed cautious
bank official has given the opinion tl,ai la
sixty days ''money will be easy a. an
old SHOE" but even If this view be too san
guine, there can hardly be any doubt that
the returning tide of greenbacks from the
West TO meet Fall purchases, the pouring
out of money now boarded and the grow
ing stock OF gold. resulting both from our
failure to ship ii and remittances from the
other size. will place merchants in an east
er position than they have been for some
time at this season of the year.
SOMETHING ABOUT FASHIONS
No event could possibly occur that would
furnish greater interest to the fair sex than
does the magnificent fashionable opening.

BR,DL.UGH's SECOND LECTURE.
The severe storm on he evening OF the
second lecture doubtless prevented from
coming hundreds who would gladly have
been present at Stcinway Hall upon the
, occasion. In spite of all uuiayorable cir
cumstances. however, fairly large audi
ence was attracted by the interesting ua-
ture of his subject as announced. That
an Enslishman's view OF Ireland" should
be one IL any sense likely 10 commend il
self Ia lrishncn seemed Improbable to
many, and that II not. it should prove at
traciiye to the masses of Americans. was
hardly 10 be imagined. Hence no little
curiosity was generally felt with regard to
the manner in which the eloquent champion
of constitutional liberty for the down-trod-
den of his own country would treat a sub
ject so delicate as this became when it WAS
to be handled before an American audi
ence. Mr.. Bradlaugh has earned a repu-
tation a. brave and honest thinker as
well as an able and eloquent advocate of
the cause he has espoused. He has never
failed to utter truth to unwilling hea rers
when earnest conviction has forced upon
him conclusion. and il was believed he
would as fearlessly denounce here that
which seemed extravagant in the Irish as.
pration after self government A. he had at
home denounced Engfands selfish domi-
neering rule in Ireland. In this, those who
heard him were not disappointed, for his
fair, logical and dispassionate eonsidera-
ton of the subject never for a moment
wayered, even when in the most eloquent
terms he pictured Irelands wrongs. and
with all the bitterness OF word and manner
pronounced scathing condemnation upon
his acknowledgements for their
treatment of his Irish fellow-men.
