TIE Danbury man writes from Europe
pathetically: "GOu have seen pictures OF
shepherds with the proverbial crook in
their hands. l didn't think party could
be a shepherd without this crook l was
glad that the first man ] saw tending sheep
carried one Of these crooks. 1 didn't know
what a crook was for, but always believed
it was a badge Of the occupatIOn, whose
origin l could not falhOm, handed down
from century to century since the time
sheep we're invented. Imagine my genuine
disgust when I saw this shepherd use the
sacred crook to capture the strayiag ami
mails by catching hold Of one Of their hind
LEGS and tipping them up. The awful
truth came upon me like a flash, and l sat
down heavily, a broken-hearted man. l
had thought It a beautiful emblem, and it
proves to be a hind-leg snatcher. ! must
have more salary or L will sink into an
early grave, fear

TUESDAY, Feb. %, 1875.
Considering the universal complaint at
the prostration of business, the statement
may a little surprise our readers, but it is
nevertheless true, that several branches of
cur wholesale trade are in a 1Ourishing
condition, that many departments are in a
prosperous way and that none are stagnant.
1t is probably otherwise with the retail
trade, but our impression is that there is a
fair degree of activity running through
this. Special inquiry among the wholesale
merchants to-day brought out the fact that
sales of hardware, seeds, agricultural i'm
plements and provisions are at present
heavy. Since the first Of January the hard
waremen have disposed of as many goods
as during any former corresponding period
cash transactions having greatly predomi-
mated. This latter feature is remarked by
sill the merchants as compromising, in a
great measure for the falling of in volume
of trade in general. The outlook for
spring is more encouraging than was an
tirinafad a short time aoO
