The General Outlook,

Whether the expectations which have
been entertained of an improved condi'
tion of trade for the present year arc to
be realized or not the next ninety days
will determine. That these hopes Of
revival have not been sauguine is true,
but the disappointment which may fol-
low their non. fulfilment will be none
the less serious. With the exception Of
few important localities, the agricnl-
tural production has been unusually
large, and the favorable prices that pre-
vail for several leading products ought
to stimulate IN early realization. The
movement of crops is the old fashioned
legitimate machinery by which to get
money into circulation, and thus in
crease the purchasing and debt paying
power of the people, especially in the
agricultural localities. That this would
be vital step toward improvement IN
trade none will deny, following as it
does two years of great economy, and
in view also of small stocks OF merchan-
disc and exceptionally low prices for
all staples. Great manufacturing cen
tres and important importing interests
ought to be benefited by the absorption
of accumulated stocks of goods, and
the whole country should feel the thrill
of new life in business. A few weeks
will determine whether this will be the
effect of an immense increase in the
wealth of vast producing class and
though it will undoubtedly take many
months to realize that wealth, the oper-
alton by which that realization will be
carried forward ought soon to be mani
fest, aud the probable result pretty
definitely anticipated. We are, there,
fore, on the eve of most important
and critical season in the commercial
history of the country, and close ob'
servers will watch with some anxiety the
indications which the next few weeks
will afford.-7he american Grocer.

She said she'd take dozen OF eggs,
but while the grocer was counting them
out she asked the price. He told her,
and she shrieked
"Seyenteen cents ?"
Yes, ma'am."
"Why that's outrageous -.
"Well, it's hard times, and everything

She sat down on n sugar barrel,
sighed several times, and asked II eggs
were likely to be lower or higher.

replied, as he twisted sheet OF paper

say that they be down to 1Gi cents in

Trade, which is naturally depressed
during July and August, is looking up
little. Our exports OF gold are now
equaled by our imports. The calling
in of bonds puts more ready money
afIoat, and capitalists are much moro
hopeful this week than last. The crops
are about ready to move, navigation
prospects are brighter, and public con
| fidence in financial measures is rapidly
returning. One thing moves around
another, you see, and though, az ! said
before, / am not financler, and my
predictions are not entitled to any great
weight, it seems to me that eggs have
got to come down. A great current oI
eggs is setting toward this point from
