Others think that when she ,jobbers have re-
duced their supply and come back for fresh
assortments this will help to stiffen prices.
But rfost sagacious and intelligent observ-
ers expect no very decided improvement,
unless the legal tender act is repealed, or
through some other radical change, the
finances OF the country are placed on 2
more satisfactory basis
REDEMPTION FIAsCo. Il.
The Washington Chronicle says:
The failure of Gen. Spinner to continue
the work started by him of redeeming ma
tional bank notes bids fair to be a perma-
nent one. The banks have paid the five per
cent authorized by the law creating this
work of redemption, and refuse to give any
more. There was every indication to show
that the banks were not only asked to
pay for the work of redeeming their own
notes. bus for the notes of other banks as
well. Mr.. Spinner drew uptbe law to carry
on the work, and placed the charge of 1t in
the hands of one of his own men, refusing
to recognize any intimation of accountable
ty to the secretary of the treasury, and
therefore there is no sympathy for him,
either by the President or any government
officers, in the failure OF his independent
movement, which has terminated as inglo-
riously' as Richardson's specie payment
resumption movement by five-dollar in
stallments.

have brought hogs from Kansas and Missouri
there is a good deal of complaint. Those grass
hopper fed animals brought here have but little
vitality, and many of them have died as soon as
put on good feed. p -
