The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad

The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company, says the Cincinnati Star,
evidently means business in its fight
against the dictations Of the Saratoga
combination. 1t has right on its
side, and the sympathy, best wishes
and patronage of the public will go
with it all the way through. The
good management that has always
characterized this company puts it
in position to resist such demands
as have lately been made upon it,
and we feel sure that it is not only
its interest but the policy Of its man
ayers to stand firmly to the end.

THE BUSINESS REVIVAL.


From a Commercial standpoint. a re-
view Of the past week presents a very
decided improvement in the activity Of
general trade. Of dry goods there has
been a larger and freer distrubtion than
for any preceding week Of the past
year; and particularly have the iobbers
felt this Improvement. Prices which
had been established early in the sea-
son have been firmly maintained, and
IN exceptional cases even an advance
has been realized, so that this impor-
tant branch of the trade of this city
appears to have turned the corner.
The Produce and Corn Exchanges have
also been the scenes Of considerable
activity and excitement attend.
ing a sharp upward movement in
the prices of most Of the leading
staples; and although the movement
has been undoubtedly largely specula-
tive, yet 1t had basis IN the increas-
ing demand for our products for ex-
port. And if-as is quite likely to be
the ease-it should prove that specula-
ton has advanced the prices Of wheat
and or hog products to a point which
checks if 1t does not entirely stop the
shipment of these articles, It Is an evil
which viii ultimately cure itself; but of
which the Western farmer may mate
rally hasten the cure, at least In the
case of wheat, by promptly forwarding
the remainder Of his crop to market,
and thus securing the price for 1t
which this speculation offers him. 1t
is certainly to be hoped that the era Of
last autumn willnOt be repeated, and the
wheat held bach, asst was then, for higher
prices, until again the only foreign
market Great Britain) shall have been
fully supplied from the shores Of the
Black Sea, the ports Of which are again
open. To the general welfare Of the
country it is Of the first importance
that its surplus products should be
sold, the price at which they may be
disposed Of being only Of secondary
consideration That there Is danger Of
again losing the British market may be
seen IN the official statement that on the
lst Of April, this year, there were afoat, /
bound TO British ports, 1868, $50 quar-
ters of wheat, against l,442,200 quar-
ters on same date last year, and |
the accompanying fact that while at |
the same date last year nearly the en-
tire quantity ahoat had been shipped |
from American ports. OF that ahoat |
now, probably less than 25 per cent is
American wheat. These facts and |
lesson should show our Western friends |
the folly Of again holding on" for |
On the Cotton Exchange |

appears to have received a check, and /
