Presbytelian synod Is about to take

Tn FALL TEADE-oa this interesting
topic We have The opinions Of two news.
PaPeFs that are usually accurate in their
Judgment Of business Affairs. The New
York BulldiH holds that the strictly mer-
camille interest has Just nov some i'm
POrtant advantages that may be relied
upon to Offset is nisfortunes for the last
two years. 1t seems now to have got
through the process Of decline in prices
by which such heavy losses have beeR
made during the last two years. This at
least may be regarded Is true OF q
large majority Of articles. 1t has the ad-
vantage Of reduced rents, lower salaries,
aHd.a very exceptionally low rate Of in
terest. Stocks Of goods also are generally
very low, which dimiRishes the liability
to cutting down prices in order to provide
for payments. So lar as respects these
circumstances, merchants are in better
position for realizing a fair profit on
their transactions than they have been for
many seasons past. The Bullstia, upon a
survey Of the main conditions affecting
trade, concludes-
1t seems quite likely that, provided no
unforeseen misfortune should occur, the
feeling in trade circles will improve as
the season advances, and that the trade Of
the latter half will be entirely satisfactory,
Buyers are at present universally supply
ing themselves with great caution; but,
should it prove, as now appears quite
likely, that cotton comes to market early,
and that the price Of 81 per bushel for
wheat at the Northwest brings large sup
plies to market and high prices foF pork
similarly affect the trade in hog products,
We should in all probability find the later
orders from the West and the South very
large, causing the season to wind up with
much spirit and improved feeling.
The Philadelphia Lodg7 takes an
equally cheerful view:
The volume Of bnsiness, as compared
with former dates, is generally higher
than the crOaking, which seems to have
become chronic, would lead the people to
believe who have not instituted an
examination as to the faeiL There
are numerous failures in various di.
rectiOns, some Of which involve large
liabilities, but the more numerous
among them are small, and result more
from gradual exhaustion OF means by the
maintenance ola style Of living and other
expenses not warranted by an inactive
business. This is the natural purging Of
trade pursuits that invariably follows
crises, and is the immediate precursor Of
pristine health. We believe in an
early improvement in business.

BOILER IScRusTAnoSs.-The search
for a preventive Of boiler incrustaiion has
occupied the attention Of scientific men
for years, and has led TO innumerable ex-
pefimeht', many Of which amount to
naught, while few partially obviate the
difficulty, bnt none Of them have as yet
led TO the full solution Of the problem.
The latest discovery for the prevention Of
incfuslations in boilers il zinc. The use
Of this material was the result Of chance,
but 50 completely had II done ita work in
tie first instance that ii was deemed i'm.
poftant enough to make additional testS
Of this simple preventive, II such 1t may
be termed. II appears that an engineer
on the French steamer "St. Laurent
after making some repairs in the
boilers, left accidentally therein an ingot
OF zinc. Sometime alter, in searching
for the bar in the generator, in which,
meanwhile, steam had been maintained,
he found, to his surprise, that the metal
hau uishpPsaIeut uilu AisU that 1hu iH
crustation left BY the water, instead OF
being hard and firm, was mere mud,
easily washed out. Repeating this ex-
pertinent during another VOYAGE, the
same result was reached. tits also stated
that N. Leseuf, French chemist, after
examining Into this remarkable cifcum.
stance, concludes that the zinc forms a
vollaic couple with the iron Of the boiler,
Einc being the negative pole and iron the
positive. II then happens; as in all bat
lefies, that the zinc is consumed, while the
iron Il protected both from oxidation and
dissolution. As the subject is one Of
great Importance the result Of further
experiments will be looked for with in.

the MOLVOKE HOLOCAUST.

The burning of The French
Catholic church ut lTolyoke.
Massachusetts,, on la. Fri
day night, was one Of the most heart
rending accidents that has ever occurred
In this country. The congregation were
engaged In celebrating the feast of Corpus
Christi, and according to custom, the
church and altar were illuminated. The
house was filled to REPETITION; the exercises
were nearly over and the congregation
were engaged in singinga vesper service,
when the drapcry around statue OF the
Virgin Mary became ighited from can
die below-the flames streamed up and
In an instant the people were in panic.
Those nearest the front entrance escaped
and many In the body Of the building
found egress through door leading from
the altar to the priests residence in the
rear of the church. But the unfortunate
occupants ofthe galleries and the center
seats, unable to escape. were suffiocated
by the heat and smoke: some were
crowded and trampled upon by others
stronger than themselves ard me, death
in more terrible form than that which
came by fire to their companions in mis-
fortune. About eighty persons lost their
lives, aud many were wounded in the
struggle to escape from the burning
building. The church was totally de-

THE PREslDENr WRITES LET
TER.

Sometime ago the Republican state
convention Of Pennsylvania adopted a
( resolution denouncing the tliird-term
idea. 10 this resolution, President Grant
has responded in letter dated May 90.
In this remarkable document the Presi-
dent says:
IL never sought the office Tor the Sc
cond or even first nomination
but took the Office the first and Sc
cOnd time, because was made to believe
that the public good called me to make
the sacrifice

"But there is no constitutional provi.-
Ion prohibitory Of third-lerm
And would not accept nomination
for reelection, unless 1t should come UNI
der such circumstances 10 make il an I'm
perative duty
This letter is interpreted In various
ways.
His organ, the National L,teliiqencey..
says 1t Is satisfactory--that the President
Is not candidate for rc-election-that h,
cannot control his political dcstiny--,hat
circumstances might arise that would
render 1t imperatvely necessary that a
President should be elected to third
term.
Certain ofilce-holders, who do no,
seem TO understand the President. ar,
depressed; but the Southern politician
at Washington claim that the letter vii
result in his reelection. They say, that
the emergencies alluded to in the lette,
may arise, and, if they do not, the prob
able course OF the Democrats in the mex
House OF Congress will so affect the peo
pie as to induce them to continue Gran
In office as preventive Of trouble II
the future.
The very Indebtedness of the lettc
makes Its meaning clear, and that mean
ing Vs. that President Grant hopes to sue
ceed In obtaining the third term. Tru
ne says he will not accept unless the du,,
OF accepting becomes imperative. VIVA
does the President mean by impera,iy
DUTY! lie did not wish the frs, nomi,c

duty required him to accept it the fir
