JFFICE OF THE WHEELING REGISTER.
WEDNESDAY, May 26, 1875. !
The Eastern press is complaining Of
the stagnatlon in trade Mondays issue
of the New York Hsra!d especially
takes downcast view Of the situation,
because the signs of the panic are not
disappearing fast enough, that capital is
laying dormant in the banks, and tina.
railroads are being sold out by assignees
as bankrupt concerns, and that for others
receivers have been appointed. The
Erie road is cited as causing q weak
feeling in stocks. In this section OF the
country We can say that the
signs OF the panic are fast disappear
ing. People are beginning to learn
the actual value of money. There is but
little capital laying dormant in this city.
1t is true, railroad speculations are not
so brisk, roads are not being built widely
through unsettled country. All, or near
ly all, of the roads that have become
bankrupt, have become so only by sheer
mismanagement, and notably is this 50
with the Erie corporation, whose eXpcn-
diturcs on all sides have been prohigate
in the extreme without even shadow Of
benefit to the unfortunate stockholders.
There is no need for complaint in this
city. for our industries are thriving, and
everything in this vicinity looks toa
bountiful harvest.
While somo kinds Of crop may b"
poor there is no reason to doubt but
others will be highly rcmuneratiyc.
Sheep never wintcrcd better, and
wool will command fair figure and n
ready market.
There is a vast quantity Of old whent
in the country yet, in the hands OF the
producers, and it now commands a good
price. Corn is far from being scarce,
and botn the price and demand are good
The breadth Of planting and sowing,
this season, is fully Us large a. ever be-
fore. and with favorable weather hcncr-
forth, most crops will be abundant.
Our merchants and manufacturers are
generally in good heart, and regard the
bushes, being done Us quite satisfactory,
and are looking forward with bright all
ticipations.
