There arc unmstakablo indications on
every hand that the panic has spent its
force. Asa rule, the banks throughout the
country have resumed business, and are
now just as well prepared to discountpaper
as they were two or three months ago
There is more currency in the country now
than there was before the panic. Not a
dollar Of our paper currency has been re-
tired, and large amount Of specie has
flowed into the country from Europe to
meet the heavy balance Of trade in our
favor. Those who have money are no
longer disposed to lock it up, through fear
Of protracted panic and general prostration
Of business. All see that such O policy is
not merely absurd, but unjust. Men are
beginning to pay their debts, which shows
that they have confidence in their ability to
get money when wanted in the future
And every one should do so, since that is
the best possible way whereby to avert the
evil influences Of the panic.
And now that the worst of the scare is
over, it is surprising to see how little real
cause existed for the papic at all. There
was, it is true, scarcity Of currency for
the transaction ofthe business OF the country;
but every dollar in circulation from one end
Of the Union to the other was just u.
sound as gold The failure Of stock spec.
ulators aud bankers did not diminish the
volume Of currency The country was
never so rich in resources-novor so well
prepared to command foreign capital The
granaries Of the country are full, and the
people Of Europe want and must have bread.
Already they are sending their millions Of
specie to obtain il. The farmers have pros
pered during the last few years beyond all
precedent, and they have made the whole
country rich in resources for obtaining money
for when the farmers are successful all
kinds Of business thrives The trade and
flow Of produce from West to East, which
was temporarily checked, has resumed its
legitimate channels. This compes a cor
responding movement of currency, and the
whole country feels its leading influence
The outlook is indeed gratifying and
what is better, every one feels that tits so
and this is more than half the battle. So,
we say, be Of good cheer.

Boston Rebuilt.


The anniversary of the great FIRE in Boston
occurred last week The only demonstra-
ton made in commcmoration Of the event
was by an official visit Of the city fathers
to the burnt district. The result Of the
years work is said to be surprising. There
will not be more than four-ffths as many
buildings, by actual count, in the burnt
district, as there wero before the fire, but
they are larger, handsomer, and better, on
the whole. The number burned was nearly
five hundred and sixty-thc number built
or building is but three hundred and sixty.
FIVE, or one for every day Of the year since
the fire was stopped Possibly, fifty more
may be added-so that the whole number
will be more than four hundred, when all
the streets are rebuilt. But the land COW
cred is much less than before the fire, SO
many streets have been widened the whole
cost of widening and extension in the burnt
district being about 100000, while the
completed buildings-l25 in all have
cost less than 81 100000. However, there
are two hundred aud forty not yet finished
which will cost eight or ten millions more
The first building flushed was on April 90
aud, in the seven months since, building
have been finished at the rate of one in
little less than two days. Only fourteen 0
the three hundred and sixty-fvc building
mentioned above are less than four storie

put our little centennial and semi-centen-
NAL in total eclipse by observing their ten
hundredth anniversary, in 1874. The
island was discovered by Naddod, sea
rover in $50. and the capital, Reikiavik,
was settled aud established four years later
by Ingolf Norwegian chief. The popula-
ton has varied greatly at different times,
on account Of the famines, pestiences,
foods and volcanic eruptions by which il
has frequently been visited, but in 1855,
the number of inhabitants was 6i,603.
The people are spoken Of as honest, temp.
crate, and friends Of education. They sup.
port over 800 Lutheran churches, all Of
which have public schools connected with
them, public libraries, newspapers and one
college. Altogether they have good cause
for celebrating their ten huudredth ami,

1t is refreshing to see Tammauy Hall
exercised for the purity Of the ballot box.
The spectacle is novel and surprising. Ii
is new character for Tammany, and the
role does not suit itspcculiar experience and
genius. Nevertheless, if it can do anything
in this direction, even from the worst mo.
tives, we shall be glad Of it. 1t is notable
that its charge is aimed at Oliver Charlick
who has been one Of its own grand moguls.
He has been expelled from Tammany Hall,
ostepsibly upon this accusation Of using the
power Of the police to prevent an honest
canvass. But, as the TrijaRe says, " it
was evident all through the evening thatthe
real otiense of Mr.. Charick was using his
power in behalf of a man running in ii.
rect opposition to Tammauy HALL that
being as everybody knows, a much blackcr
crime than cheating the voters, or forging
returns, or appointing thieves as To-.

If the reported dehlcation Of The
treasurer Of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas
Railroad be true, he has by the magnitude
OF his irregularity" INDICATED his claim
to genius in finance. Six hundred thousand
dollars is the amount alleged to have been
originally taken, which is certainly neat
little sum for beginner, In justice to the
treasurer however, we must say that he
denies the whole story, and the fact that he
prefers to be considered an honest man
rather than stupeudous swindlcr is credit
able to his modesty as well as to hia honor.

causing much difficulty among merchants
Lberality and concession are enabling man.
ufacturers and merchants to bridge over
financial difficulties Dry goods and mer-
chandise of various kinds have been gradu-
ally coming down in price for the last thirty
or forty days. Domestic fabrics, for in.
stance, are selling at prices in New York
which would yield fair profit only on a
basis of the present rates Of labor and raw
material, As the larger houses are now
managing their business in accordance with
the new order of things, so will the smaller
houses gradually conform to this principle
without regard to profit or loss. There
has also been a decline in prices Of nearly
all the principal articles sold by the retail
grocers, comparing the present with the
LIST of September, and also with the sam,
time, last year. Sugars, syrups, cofees
-four and bacon are lower. There is con.
siderable decline in the price of raisns,
currants and foreign fruits. Raisins have
declined one dollar per box forlayers since
October. The prices for fresh meats are
not much lower. Some stores, however
have commenced to accommodate themselves
to the low prices, and their action gives
