DON'T make any thing you read in the
partisan press the basis of bet on the
election. In fact Vanderbilt's advice
ABOUT betting was at least practical
'Neyer bet on a game unless you play
both hands" In the game for the cleo
tion OF President the hands are held by
different parties and played for all they
are worth. Ii is therefore safe MOTTO bet
at all. If you meet man who can tell
you who is going to be elected set him
down for a fool. The fight isn't that
kind of one.

THE WEEKLY SUN.
i776. NEW YORK. 1875.

Eighteen hundred and seventy-siX is the
Centennial year. 1t is also the year in which
an Opposition House of Representatives, the
arst since the war, will bel n power ut Wash
mgton; 'and the year of the twenty third elec-
uon OF a President of the United States. All
of these events are sure to be Of great interest
and Importance, especially the two latter; and
all OF them ana everything connected with
them will be fully and freshly reported and
expounded in THE SUN.
The Opposition House of Representatives,
taking up the line Of inquiry opened years ago
by THE SUN, will sternly and diligently IN
vestigato the corruptIons and msdeeds Of
Grants administration; and Will, il is to be
hoped, lay the foundation for new and bet
ter period in our national history. Of all this
THE sun will contain complete and accurate
accounts, furnishing its readers with early
and Trustworthy information UPON these ab-
sorbing topics.
The II EEKLY SUN. which mas attained a
circulation of over eighty thousand copies, al
ready has its readers IN every State and Ter
ritory we trust that the year 1876 will see
their numbers doubled. 1t will continue to be
a thorough newspaper. All the general news
of the day will be found in it, condensed when
unimportant, at full length when of moment;
and always, we trust, treated in clear, in
teresting and instructive manner
II IS our aim TO make the WEEKLY SUN
the best family newspaper in the world, and
we shall continue TO give in its columns a
large amount of miscellaneous reading, such
as stories, tales, poems, scientific intelligence
and information, for which we are not able to
make room in our daily edition. The agricul-
tural department especially is one of its prom
inent features. The fashions are also regu-
larly reported in its columns; and so are the
markets of every kind
The W EEKLY Sun, eight pages, with fifty
six broad columns, is only 81 go a year, post
age prepaid. AS this price barely repays the
cost of the paper, no discount can be made from
this rate tO clubs, agents, PoStmasterS, or any
one.
The DAILY sun, large four-page news
paper of twenty eight columns, gives all the
news for two cents copy. Subscription, post
age prepaid, 55 cents a month, or So so a
year. SUNDAY edition extra, 81 10 per year,

ticular branch OF trade or production.
In addition to all. that has been pub
lished in relation to our domestic im-
provement in this behalf, there are found
many other facts, derived from our for
eign transactions and business rela-
tions, which are equally conclusive of
the correctness of our views as to the
coming of good times. During the past
few days we have read in the telegraph
amounts of coin from the bank of En-
land for shipment to this country. At
one time 100000, at another time of 92S,-
900, and yesterday Of 100000, and again
f22S,O or over one million of dollars
in our currency. This is reversing the
flow of coin, and turning it to this coun-
try, instead of shipping it hence to for
eign countries. This is always an in
dubitable index OF returning prosperity.
One cause OF this turning of the tide
Of coin movement i'll our favor is found
In the fact that, during the eight months
ending the first of September, 1876, we
had imported OF foreign G DDS $62, 1853,
39S less than we did in the correspond
ing light months of 1915. Furthermore,
the exports of our own products to for
eign countries during the same eight
months oil 1876 amounted to $36, ,S39, ,203
more than in the same eight months OF
| 1875. The whole difference thus aggre-
eating almost 500, 900, 900 OF gain in our
favor as between last year and this.
Nor is this balance Of trade in our
favor likely TO subside. The sta
tisticians of the grain trade i'll
Europe announce that, owing
to short crops. Europe will require fol
the current year 150,000,000 bushels Of
grain from abroad to yield them the
necessary supply.
The principal countries making this
demand are England, France Germany,
Italy, and Holland. Russia is generally
an exporter Of grain; but this year her
product will but little more than supply
| her own demand. This Will leave prob
ably 100, 900, 0V0 bushels to be drawn from
the United States. Fortunately, our
| harvests have been SO abundant as to be
able TO meet this great demand. This
| with our other products in the provision
| department will continue to draw the
coin from Europe in immense amounts.
There exists also the impending eXi-
geney of European war, which, even as
affairs now stand, will enhance the de-
mand for these supplies; and which may
possibly vastly increase the demand for
all we have TO spare.
These facts and considerations, de-
rived from our foreign business rela.
tions, taken in connection with our
home movements in business already
alluded to, being considered, we cer-
tainly have abundant warrant for saying
that good times are coming, and for the
| belief that their advent will be speedy
and ,their stay permanent.

POROUS PLASTBRS.
WORTHY OF NOTICE.

TNHERE are thousands who, were it not from
| prejudice, would test articles which are
advertised as remedies. There are unques-
tionably those that deserve to be ignored as
nostrums and vile compounds, yet in the cate
CORY OF meticines many that are advertised
possess real merit.
BENsON's CAPCINE Porous PLASTER is with
out doubt an honest remedy, and can in no
wise be called patent medicine; its compo-
sition is founded upon true medical skill, con-
tains the newly discovered principle, Capcine,
Is entirely vegetable, does not blister, relieves
you at once, and cures you quicker than any
known Pla Ier LinIment or Compound. They
are q great improvement on the ordinary Por-
Gus Plaster. Try them and DC convinced.

Good Times Coming.

All are familiar with the popular song
saying, ''There's a good time coming,
boys; wait little longer" The exhor-
tation to exercise patience in the eXpec-
fancy Of the coming of good times is,
perhaps, the wisest feature of the popu-
lar ballad. 1t is doubtless well to en-
ploy the same virtue in anticipation OF
the approach of good times in our bust
ness affairs. We may nevertheless with
equal propriety make the averment that
good times are undoubtedly coming,
though we may have to wait little
more prosperous era. The exercise OF
patience, however, becomes a much
easier penance when the fruition of out
hopes is certain to follow, than when
doubt rests upon the result.
Some months have passed since we
irst felt warranted in making proclama-
lion OF the approach OF good times and
the revival of business activity. We
are gratifed to know that our views
then expressed have been fully con-
Hrmed by the facts OF the present and
the promise of the immediate future.
In the absence of any deeply disturbing
element inimieal to our general pros
perity, such as war, or pestIlence, or
destruction of harvests, it may be as.
sumed as an impossibility that this
great country can be kept permanently
depressed. Our population is so great,
their needs are so numerous, their
vitality so vigorous, and their industries
80 diversified, that prolonged stagnatioh
in business is simply impossible.
The shock Inflicted by the panic of
1873 has prolonged its effects much be-
yond what would have been had not all
the nations of Europe been equally in
Volyed in the disaster. The depression
has there been as great, perhaps greater,
than here; and recuperation seems to be
slower and more uncertain there than
with us. Every such panic and crash
must needs send its disturbance, like
tidal wave, through succeeding years,
to a greater or less extent. But, like
tidal wave, there is an imperative limit
where its flow must of necessity expire.
The moment it begins to cease, the natu-
raj tendency of the channels of busi
ness, like the channels of the ocean, is
to resume their natural level. 1t is to
that condition that we are now ap-
preaching; nor will we need to wait
much longer for its complete establish
ment. --
Such would, indeed, be the conclusion
to which all considerate minds would
arrive in view of the philosophical ideas
underlying this whole subject. But we
are fortified in these views by an array
Of facts that must dispel all doubt.
Many OF these facts have of late been
made known through our own columns
and by the public press generally, both
East and West, all tending to show that
the tide has turned, aud that business
is rapidly assuming it's normal standard
Of activity. Those facts have been
mostly collected from our own domestic
and local transactions, though Of gen.
eral and wide-reaching character; such
indeed as to show that this revival OF
bur bpsie - activities has not been con.
