EAlLUREs IN BUSINESS.

A quarterly circular of failures for
the first three months of the year, just
issued by Messrs. Dun, Barlow d Co.,
represents more favorable view of
the trade of the country than might
have been looked for. There is evil
IDENTIFY wonderful elasticity in our
commercial affairs and favorable
outlook for revival of prosperity. The
figures show ,l33 failures, with gross
liabilities of S3S, 1913, 900, being only
about S73, 1000 more than one quarter OF
the amount of the previous year, and
nearly S2O,O0O,OOO less than for cor
responding period in 1873.
From the circular it appears that
thus far in 1875 the failures have not
been largely In excess of previous
years, while the amount of liabilities
shows no increase whatever above the
average of years. Considering the
continued depression in numerous ill.,
terests, the exceeding severity of the
winter, and the lateness of the spring,
the conclusion is on the whole encour-
aging. 1t was to be expected that
numerous wrecks from the panic OF
1873 would be discovered long after the
storm had passed, and probably not a
few of the above failures can be thus
characterized. The ability to stand
the pressure of these continued hard
times, and the steady maintenance OF
credit which the above figures imply,
under all the adverse circumstances of
the season, is subject for congratu-
Iot;on

IT is said that THE DALLAS HERALD
is to be purchased by the Texas and
Pacific railroad officials. This may ac-
count for its recent hostility to demo-
cratic USAGE Austin Gazette.
The publisher of THE HERALD is GER
tainly unaware of any such contem-
plated purchase. As regards THE
HERALDs hostility to " democratic
usage" it has only to refer to its record
of over quarter of a century to refute
any insinuation in regard to its political
faith or honesty. While true to its party
and friends, it has never yet been sub
servient to the behests of any man or
clique, or so lost to self respect aud in
dependence ~ TO fear to eriticise cor
ruption, dishonesty or error among
members OF its own political faith, or
render just praise and credit to an oppo-
nent when merited. THE HERALD is
content to rest its reputation with the
people of Texas. No charge of bribery,
corruption or false dealing talnts its
skirts in either national, state or mu-
nicipal matters. Can the Gazette say
as much?

The following notice in regard to n
promising filly is copied from the Gal
weston News. The statement that she
was sold to Messrs. Greer and Brown,

brought to this city, with the Others,
and kept during the summer:
Immediately after tho first race
Coriander changed hands. Before the

cept it, and Immediately after the race,
b fire the time was announced, dis
posed of his filly for 81 800 in gold. This
sum was paid 10y Messrs. Greer and
Brown. 1t vas said that g, 900, and af-
tcrward =, 800 was offered for the same
a. imal.
The ch. {. Coriander was foaled
March IL, 1872, by Rebel; lie by Socks,
dam Betty Horton by Othello; the
dam sorrel mare Aurelia, 10y Africa ;

is beautiful animal, and will un-
doubtedly hold Il high position on the
turf.
