Business Outlook.

There Will always DO croahers il,
the world, but there is rather les,
excuse than usual for the croaxers
who try TO excite distrust in rctcr
cnco tc the business prospect OF the
country. Legislation this session
canrot new effect trade one way or
tho other-busnesa men know per.
fec.!y what they have to expect.
There Will be no imitation, and the
Treasury Departm is now in
strong hands, and will undoubtedly
be supported By the President. The
summer season is, Of course, rather
dull, but we may look forward TO n
great revival OF trade as the fall IN.
proaches. There is nothing to cause
aneaslness, or to justify the predle
tons OF evil which proceed from
certain quarters. Such predictions
seldom or ever come true. When
men sit down aud wait tor mislor
tie, 1t never comes. The bolt gen
orally falls from a clear skv-as !,
did last year. Business viii soon
resume its regular course after the
adjournment OF Congress, and we
shall be much deceived il we do not
see an unusually prosperous season
next Fall.-N \. Tribune.
