The circular adds that, "W bile the
above comparison shows very tri-
fling increase in the number of fail
ures, it will be seen that the amount
of liabilities is considerably less than
the average of the four years.
"The reports from all the chief
centres of trade herewith submitted,
and which are derived from the most
reliable sources in each locality by
our own representatives indicate
much that is encouraging. Whatever
an abundant agricultural product
will accomplish toward restoration
of prosperity, will certainly this year
be contributed. The purchasing and
de6t-paying power of the people in
vast sections of the country will be
improved, while considerable activity
must be provoked during the autumn
in replenishing the small stocks of
merchandise held in all hands. Other
things than agricultural success may
be needed to restore universal pros-
perity. Expectation founded on that
basis has already led to disappoint-
ment. But whatever else may be
needed, it seems hardly possible in
the nature of things that u revival
can be very much longer delayed
Every day brings us nearer to the
commencement of better state of
things. We have all the clements of
wealth at hand, abundant and varied
resources, unrivaled means of trans
portstion, large surplus of unem- .
pIoyed capital, well-tried and sue
cessful monetary system, and, above
all, people who have experienced n
far worse condition Of things and yet
have achieved success. 1t may be
that the one hundredth anniversary
of the nation will both come and go
before we can chronicle permanent
activity and profit in business ; but
if no worse comes 10 us in the inter
val than has befallen us in tho six

How ABOUT THIs.-The Democrat
ic papers are making great ado be-
cause at the time of the panic in 1873,
Maj. Bsetz, Republican State Treas
urer of Wisconsin, had few thous-
and dollars deposited in banks that
had to suspend. The State however
did not lose cent thereby. The at
tention of those papers is called to
the following facts grouped by the

A SOLEMN MATTER. "A young man
claiming superior knowledge and pre-
eminence in the acquisition of learn
ing and logic" addresses lengthy
communication to the editor of the
Advocate criticising what was said in
the HERALD about the enactment by
the last Legislature of Chapter l79.
The truth is we were only playfully
calling attention to those little bulls
and did not expect to excite so solemn
below from such big bull. Sc
riously, if that law was passed in 1889,
and again in l849, and again in 1853,
and again in 1862, as, very truly 1t
was, and t,oo other times in 1875, we
shall be in favor of putting the next
legislature and Governor that passes
it under arrest for "cruelly treating"
it. An application of the law to them
selves may suggest to them that it
has been enacted often enough.
